David Decotigny authored
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635721 This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API, handled by the new get_link_ksettings/set_link_ksettings callbacks. This API provides support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds support for larger link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length), and removes ethtool_cmd deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). This API is deprecating the legacy ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API and provides the following backward compatibility properties: - legacy ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the get_settings/set_settings callbacks. - legacy ethtool with new get/set_link_ksettings drivers: the new driver callbacks are used, data internally converted to legacy ethtool_cmd. ETHTOOL_GSET will return only the 1st 32b of each link mode mask. ETHTOOL_SSET will fail if user tries to set the ethtool_cmd deprecated fields to non-0 (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). A kernel warning is logged if driver sets higher bits. - future ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the get_settings/set_settings callbacks, internally converted to new data structure. Deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt) will be ignored and seen as 0 from user space. Note that that "future" ethtool tool will not allow changes to these deprecated fields. - future ethtool with new drivers: direct call to the new callbacks. By "future" ethtool, what is meant is: - query: first try ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS, and revert to ETHTOOL_GSET if fails - set: query first and remember which of ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS or ETHTOOL_GSET was successful + if ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS was successful, then change config with ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SSET). + otherwise ETHTOOL_GSET was successful, change config with ETHTOOL_SSET. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS). The interaction user/kernel via the new API requires a small ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS handshake first to agree on the length of the link mode bitmaps. If kernel doesn't agree with user, it returns the bitmap length it is expecting from user as a negative length (and cmd field is 0). When kernel and user agree, kernel returns valid info in all fields (ie. link mode length > 0 and cmd is ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS). Data structure crossing user/kernel boundary is 32/64-bit agnostic. Converted internally to a legal kernel bitmap. The internal __ethtool_get_settings kernel helper will gradually be replaced by __ethtool_get_link_ksettings by the time the first "link_settings" drivers start to appear. So this patch doesn't change it, it will be removed before it needs to be changed. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <decot@googlers.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Paul Mackerras authored
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632462 Debugging a data corruption issue with virtio-net/vhost-net led to the observation that __copy_tofrom_user was occasionally returning a value 16 larger than it should. Since the return value from __copy_tofrom_user is the number of bytes not copied, this means that __copy_tofrom_user can occasionally return a value larger than the number of bytes it was asked to copy. In turn this can cause higher-level copy functions such as copy_page_to_iter_iovec to corrupt memory by copying data into the wrong memory locations. It turns out that the failing case involves a fault on the store at label 79, and at that point the first unmodified byte of the destination is at R3 + 16. Consequently the exception handler for that store needs to add 16 to R3 before using it to work out how many bytes were not copied, but in this one case it was not adding the offset to R3. To fix it, this moves the label 179 to the point where we add 16 to R3. I have checked manually all the exception handlers for the loads and stores in this code and the rest of them are correct (it would be excellent to have an automated test of all the exception cases).

This bug is pending since v3.11 but was hidden if a caller of the caller of __pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() has pushed the corruped register (r18 in this case) in the stack and is not using it until restoring it. GCC 6.2.0 seems to raise it more frequently. This commit also change the definition of the parameter buffer in pSeries_lpar_flush_hash_range() to rely on the global define PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE (no functional change here).

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit 2fae9e5a upstream. This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference caused by a race codition in the probe function of the legousbtower driver. It re-structures the probe function to only register the interface after successfully reading the board's firmware ID. The probe function does not deregister the usb interface after an error receiving the devices firmware ID. The device file registered (/dev/usb/legousbtower%d) may be read/written globally before the probe function returns. When tower_delete is called in the probe function (after an r/w has been initiated), core dev structures are deleted while the file operation functions are still running. If the 0 address is mappable on the machine, this vulnerability can be used to create a Local Priviege Escalation exploit via a write-what-where condition by remapping dev->interrupt_out_buffer in tower_write. A forged USB device and local program execution would be required for LPE. The USB device would have to delay the control message in tower_probe and accept the control urb in tower_open whilst guest code initiated a write to the device file as tower_delete is called from the error in tower_probe. This bug has existed since 2003. Patch tested by emulated device.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit a377f9e9 upstream. A bug in the CRTSCTS handling caused RTS to alternate between CRTSCTS=0 => "RTS is transmit active signal" and CRTSCTS=1 => "RTS is used for receive flow control" instead of CRTSCTS=0 => "RTS is statically active" and CRTSCTS=1 => "RTS is used for receive flow control" This only happened after first having enabled CRTSCTS.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit 7efb3673 upstream. bio_alloc() can allocate a bio with at most BIO_MAX_PAGES (256) vector entries. However, the incoming bio may have more vector entries if it was allocated by other means. For example, bcache submits bios with more than BIO_MAX_PAGES entries. This results in bio_alloc() failure. To avoid the failure, change the code so that it allocates bio with at most BIO_MAX_PAGES entries. If the incoming bio has more entries, bio_add_page() will fail and a new bio will be allocated - the code that handles bio_add_page() failure already exists in the dm-log-writes target.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit 22f6b4d3 upstream. This ensures that do_mmap() won't implicitly make AIO memory mappings executable if the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag is set. Such behavior is problematic because the security_mmap_file LSM hook doesn't catch this case, potentially permitting an attacker to bypass a W^X policy enforced by SELinux. I have tested the patch on my machine. To test the behavior, compile and run this: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/personality.h> #include <linux/aio_abi.h> #include <err.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> int main(void) { personality(READ_IMPLIES_EXEC); aio_context_t ctx = 0; if (syscall(__NR_io_setup, 1, &ctx)) err(1, "io_setup"); char cmd[1000]; sprintf(cmd, "cat /proc/%d/maps | grep -F '/[aio]'", (int)getpid()); system(cmd); return 0; } In the output, "rw-s" is good, "rwxs" is bad.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit 8ec07bf8 upstream. When sending QP1 MAD packets which use a GRH, the source GID (which consists of the 64-bit subnet prefix, and the 64 bit port GUID) must be included in the packet GRH. For SR-IOV, a GID cache is used, since the source GID needs to be the slave's source GID, and not the Hypervisor's GID. This cache also included a subnet_prefix. Unfortunately, the subnet_prefix field in the cache was never initialized (to the default subnet prefix 0xfe80::0). As a result, this field remained all zeroes. Therefore, when SR-IOV was active, all QP1 packets which included a GRH had a source GID subnet prefix of all-zeroes. However, the subnet-prefix should initially be 0xfe80::0 (the default subnet prefix). In addition, if OpenSM modifies a port's subnet prefix, the new subnet prefix must be used in the GRH when sending QP1 packets. To fix this we now initialize the subnet prefix in the SR-IOV GID cache to the default subnet prefix. We update the cached value if/when OpenSM modifies the port's subnet prefix. We take this cached value when sending QP1 packets when SR-IOV is active. Note that the value is stored as an atomic64. This eliminates any need for locking when the subnet prefix is being updated. Note also that we depend on the FW generating the "port management change" event for tracking subnet-prefix changes performed by OpenSM. If running early FW (before 2.9.4630), subnet prefix changes will not be tracked (but the default subnet prefix still will be stored in the cache; therefore users who do not modify the subnet prefix will not have a problem). IF there is a need for such tracking also for early FW, we will add that capability in a subsequent patch.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631468 commit e5ac40cd upstream. Because of an incorrect bit-masking done on the join state bits, when handling a join request we failed to detect a difference between the group join state and the request join state when joining as send only full member (0x8). This caused the MC join request not to be sent. This issue is relevant only when SRIOV is enabled and SM supports send only full member. This fix separates scope bits and join states bits a nibble each.
