CVE-2017-17450 The capability check in nfnetlink_rcv() verifies that the caller has CAP_NET_ADMIN in the namespace that "owns" the netlink socket. However, xt_osf_fingers is shared by all net namespaces on the system. An unprivileged user can create user and net namespaces in which he holds CAP_NET_ADMIN to bypass the netlink_net_capable() check: vpnns -- nfnl_osf -f /tmp/pf.os vpnns -- nfnl_osf -f /tmp/pf.os -d These non-root operations successfully modify the systemwide OS fingerprint list. Add new capable() checks so that they can't. Signed-off-by:Kevin Cernekee <cernekee@chromium.org> Signed-off-by:

CVE-2017-15129 (I can trivially verify that that idr_remove in cleanup_net happens after the network namespace count has dropped to zero --EWB) Function get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for net::count after it has found a peer in netns_ids idr. It may dereference a peer, after its count has already been finaly decremented. This leads to double free and memory corruption: put_net(peer) rtnl_lock() atomic_dec_and_test(&peer->count) [count=0] ... __put_net(peer) get_net_ns_by_id(net, id) spin_lock(&cleanup_list_lock) list_add(&net->cleanup_list, &cleanup_list) spin_unlock(&cleanup_list_lock) queue_work() peer = idr_find(&net->netns_ids, id) | get_net(peer) [count=1] | ... | (use after final put) v ... cleanup_net() ... spin_lock(&cleanup_list_lock) ... list_replace_init(&cleanup_list, ..) ... spin_unlock(&cleanup_list_lock) ... ... ... ... put_net(peer) ... atomic_dec_and_test(&peer->count) [count=0] ... spin_lock(&cleanup_list_lock) ... list_add(&net->cleanup_list, &cleanup_list) ... spin_unlock(&cleanup_list_lock) ... queue_work() ... rtnl_unlock() rtnl_lock() ... for_each_net(tmp) { ... id = __peernet2id(tmp, peer) ... spin_lock_irq(&tmp->nsid_lock) ... idr_remove(&tmp->netns_ids, id) ... ... ... net_drop_ns() ... net_free(peer) ... } ... | v cleanup_net() ... (Second free of peer) Also, put_net() on the right cpu may reorder with left's cpu list_replace_init(&cleanup_list, ..), and then cleanup_list will be corrupted. Since cleanup_net() is executed in worker thread, while put_net(peer) can happen everywhere, there should be enough time for concurrent get_net_ns_by_id() to pick the peer up, and the race does not seem to be unlikely. The patch fixes the problem in standard way. (Also, there is possible problem in peernet2id_alloc(), which requires check for net::count under nsid_lock and maybe_get_net(peer), but in current stable kernel it's used under rtnl_lock() and it has to be safe. Openswitch begun to use peernet2id_alloc(), and possibly it should be fixed too. While this is not in stable kernel yet, so I'll send a separate message to netdev@ later).

CVE-2018-5344 范龙飞 reports that KASAN can report a use-after-free in __lock_acquire. The reason is due to insufficient serialization in lo_release(), which will continue to use the loop device even after it has decremented the lo_refcnt to zero. In the meantime, another process can come in, open the loop device again as it is being shut down. Confusion ensues. Reported-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724614 In some fio benchmarks, halt_poll_ns=400000 caused CPU utilization to increase heavily even in cases where the performance improvement was small. In particular, bandwidth divided by CPU usage was as much as 60% lower. To some extent this is the expected effect of the patch, and the additional CPU utilization is only visible when running the benchmarks. However, halving the threshold also halves the extra CPU utilization (from +30-130% to +20-70%) and has no negative effect on performance. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664602 When a NVMe is in non-op states, the latency is exlat. The latency will be enlat + exlat only when the NVMe tries to transit from operational state right atfer it begins to transit to non-operational state, which should be a rare case. Therefore, as Andy Lutomirski suggests, use exlat only when deciding power states to trainsit to. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664602 I got a couple more reports: the Samsung APST issues appears to affect multiple 950-series devices in Dell XPS 15 9550 and Precision 5510 laptops. Change the quirk: rather than blacklisting the firmware on the first problematic SSD that was reported, disable APST on all 144d:a802 devices if they're installed in the two affected Dell models. While we're at it, disable only the deepest sleep state instead of all of them -- the reporters say that this is sufficient to fix the problem. (I have a device that appears to be entirely identical to one of the affected devices, but I have a different Dell laptop, so it's not the case that all Samsung devices with firmware BXW75D0Q are broken under all circumstances.) Samsung engineers have an affected system, and hopefully they'll give us a better workaround some time soon. In the mean time, this should minimize regressions.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664602 NVMe devices can advertise multiple power states. These states can be either "operational" (the device is fully functional but possibly slow) or "non-operational" (the device is asleep until woken up). Some devices can automatically enter a non-operational state when idle for a specified amount of time and then automatically wake back up when needed. The hardware configuration is a table. For each state, an entry in the table indicates the next deeper non-operational state, if any, to autonomously transition to and the idle time required before transitioning. This patch teaches the driver to program APST so that each successive non-operational state will be entered after an idle time equal to 100% of the total latency (entry plus exit) associated with that state. The maximum acceptable latency is controlled using dev_pm_qos (e.g. power/pm_qos_latency_tolerance_us in sysfs); non-operational states with total latency greater than this value will not be used. As a special case, setting the latency tolerance to 0 will disable APST entirely. On hardware without APST support, the sysfs file will not be exposed. The latency tolerance for newly-probed devices is set by the module parameter nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us. In theory, the device can expose "default" APST table, but this doesn't seem to function correctly on my device (Samsung 950), nor does it seem particularly useful. There is also an optional mechanism by which a configuration can be "saved" so it will be automatically loaded on reset. This can be configured from userspace, but it doesn't seem useful to support in the driver. On my laptop, enabling APST seems to save nearly 1W. The hardware tables can be decoded in userspace with nvme-cli. 'nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvmeN' will show the power state table and 'nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0' will show the current APST configuration. This feature is quirked off on a known-buggy Samsung device. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1664602 NVMe over fabrics will use __nvme_submit_sync_cmd in the the transport and require a few tweaks to it. For that we export it and add a few more paramters: 1. allow passing a queue ID to the block layer For the NVMe over Fabrics connect command we need to able to specify a queue ID that we want to send the command on. Add a qid parameter to the relevant functions to enable this behavior. 2. allow submitting at_head commands In cases where we want to (re)connect to a controller where we have inflight queued commands we want to first connect and only then allow the other queued commands to be kicked. This will prevents failures in controller resets and reconnects. 3. allow passing flags to blk_mq_allocate_request Both for Fabrics connect the the keep-alive feature in NVMe 1.2.1 we want to be able to use reserved requests.

It hardcodes a bunch of power states, which is nonsense, because they're all just indices into a table that software needs to parse. It completely ignores the distinction between operational and non-operational states. And, until 4.8, if all of the above magically succeeded, it would dereference a NULL pointer and OOPS.

when the verifier detects that register contains a runtime constant and it's compared with another constant it will prune exploration of the branch that is guaranteed not to be taken at runtime. This is all correct, but malicious program may be constructed in such a way that it always has a constant comparison and the other branch is never taken under any conditions. In this case such path through the program will not be explored by the verifier. It won't be taken at run-time either, but since all instructions are JITed the malicious program may cause JITs to complain about using reserved fields, etc. To fix the issue we have to track the instructions explored by the verifier and sanitize instructions that are dead at run time with NOPs. We cannot reject such dead code, since llvm generates it for valid C code, since it doesn't do as much data flow analysis as the verifier does.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1730550 Lennart reported the following race condition: \ e1000_watchdog_task \ e1000e_has_link \ hw->mac.ops.check_for_link() === e1000e_check_for_copper_link /* link is up */ mac->get_link_status = false; /* interrupt */ \ e1000_msix_other hw->mac.get_link_status = true; link_active = !hw->mac.get_link_status /* link_active is false, wrongly */ This problem arises because the single flag get_link_status is used to signal two different states: link status needs checking and link status is down. Avoid the problem by using the return value of .check_for_link to signal the link status to e1000e_has_link(). Reported-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1730550 When e1000e_poll() is not fast enough to keep up with incoming traffic, the adapter (when operating in msix mode) raises the Other interrupt to signal Receiver Overrun. This is a double problem because 1) at the moment e1000_msix_other() assumes that it is only called in case of Link Status Change and 2) if the condition persists, the interrupt is repeatedly raised again in quick succession. Ideally we would configure the Other interrupt to not be raised in case of receiver overrun but this doesn't seem possible on this adapter. Instead, we handle the first part of the problem by reverting to the practice of reading ICR in the other interrupt handler, like before commit 16ecba59 ("e1000e: Do not read ICR in Other interrupt"). Thanks to commit 0a8047ac ("e1000e: Fix msi-x interrupt automask") which cleared IAME from CTRL_EXT, reading ICR doesn't interfere with RxQ0, TxQ0 interrupts anymore. We handle the second part of the problem by not re-enabling the Other interrupt right away when there is overrun. Instead, we wait until traffic subsides, napi polling mode is exited and interrupts are re-enabled. Reported-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720228 It's possible to use "err" without initializing it. If it happens to be a 2 which is SCSI_DH_RETRY then that could cause a bug. Bart Van Assche pointed out that we should probably re-initialize it for every iteration through the retry loop. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1703742 The current configuration is set to always use transparent hugepages by default. There exists plenty of anecdotal evidence that this is less than perfect a choice and in some scenarios it leads to some performance issues. My own investigations with stress-ng stream and malloc tests show that the current default impacts performance. I ran various test scenarios on different MADVISE configurations, each result below is based on the average of 5 runs on an i7-3770 CPU @ 3.4GHz with 8GB memory, 8MB L3 cache, 256K L2 cache, 32K/32K L1 cache. All the above results are from an average of 5 rounds of tests. malloc allocation stressor: malloc always madvise size (MB) ops/sec ops/sec 32 1254.43 2422.49 64 2100.36 4300.28 128 3768.57 7215.38 256 7940.73 14893.85 512 17618.62 26861.29 1024 32777.17 48029.37 Clearly madvise is more performent. stream bandwidth/compute stressor: stream always madvise NOHUGEPAGE size (MB) MB/sec MB/sec 1 17713.54 18439.69 2 12460.34 13015.46 4 12195.81 12694.51 8 12085.11 12674.26 16 12054.09 12649.00 32 12082.42 12409.65 64 12262.88 12084.85 128 12235.25 11788.49 256 11808.69 11283.69 512 11970.01 12434.82 For small allocations, always is less performant. Large allocations can enable the more performant transparent huge pages with madvise(2) if we disable always as default. Other stress-ng memory allocation/writing/freeing and madvise operations showed little significant differences. I have also experimented with boot testing Ubuntu with kernels configured with different MADVISE configs and found there is little noticeable difference in performance, so I believe that there is little scope for any kitten killer performance regressions with this change. This change will by default not use transparent huge pages unless madvise(2) is used to instruct the kernel to do so on a memory mapping. According to the madvise(2) manual, this only takes effect on private anonymous mappings with MADV_HUGEPAGE. Signed-off-by:
