commit 648a9bc5 upstream. Since the hardware sometimes mysteriously totally flummoxes the 64bit read of a 64bit register when read using a single instruction, split the read into two instructions. Since the read here is of automatically incrementing timestamp counters, we also have to be very careful in order to make sure that it does not increment between the two instructions. However, since userspace tried to workaround this issue and so enshrined this ABI for a broken hardware read and in the process neglected that the read only fails in some environments, we have to introduce a new uABI flag for userspace to request the 2x32 bit accurate read of the timestamp. v2: Fix alignment check and include details of the workaround for userspace.

commit a84e3289 upstream. With the actual code, if a memory allocation error happens while refilling a Rx descriptor, then the original Rx buffer is both passed to the networking stack (in a SKB) and let in the Rx ring. This leads to various kernel oops and crashes. As a fix, this patch moves Rx descriptor refilling ahead of building SKB with the associated Rx buffer. In case of a memory allocation failure, data is dropped and the original DMA buffer is put back into the Rx ring. Signed-off-by:

commit 25b401c1 upstream. If a valid power regulator or a dummy regulator is used (which happens to be the case when no regulator is specified), restart_work is queued no matter whether the device was running or not at suspend time. Since work queues get initialized in the ndo_open callback, resuming leads to a NULL pointer exception. Reverse exactly the steps executed at suspend time: - Enable the power regulator in any case - Enable the transceiver regulator if the device was running, even in case we have a power regulator - Queue restart_work only in case the device was running Fixes: bf66f373 ("can: mcp251x: Move to threaded interrupts instead of workqueues.")

commit d531be2c upstream. I have a ST4000DM000 disk. If Linux is booted while the disk is spun down, the command that sets transfer mode causes the disk to spin up. The spin-up takes longer than the default 5s timeout, so the command fails and timeout is reported. Fix this by increasing the timeout to 15s, which is enough for the disk to spin up. Signed-off-by:

commit 6debce6f upstream. Current implementation of cp2112_raw_event() only accepts one data report at a time. If last received data report is not fully handled yet, a new incoming data report will overwrite it. In such case we don't guaranteed to propagate the correct incoming data. The trivial fix implemented here forces a single report at a time by requesting in cp2112_read() no more than 61 byte of data, which is the payload size of a single data report. Signed-off-by:

commit 451a2886 upstream. unfortunately, allowing an arbitrary 16bit value means a possibility of overflow in the calculation of total number of pages in bio_map_user_iov() - we rely on there being no more than PAGE_SIZE members of sum in the first loop there.

commit 3f2cee73 upstream. The usbfs API has a peculiar hole: Users are not allowed to reap their URBs after the device has been disconnected. There doesn't seem to be any good reason for this; it is an ad-hoc inconsistency. The patch allows users to issue the USBDEVFS_REAPURB and USBDEVFS_REAPURBNDELAY ioctls (together with their 32-bit counterparts on 64-bit systems) even after the device is gone. If no URBs are pending for a disconnected device then the ioctls will return -ENODEV rather than -EAGAIN, because obviously no new URBs will ever be able to complete. The patch also adds a new capability flag for USBDEVFS_GET_CAPABILITIES to indicate that the reap-after-disconnect feature is supported. Signed-off-by:

commit 6b7339f4 upstream. Reading page fault handler code I've noticed that under right circumstances kernel would map anonymous pages into file mappings: if the VMA doesn't have vm_ops->fault() and the VMA wasn't fully populated on ->mmap(), kernel would handle page fault to not populated pte with do_anonymous_page(). Let's change page fault handler to use do_anonymous_page() only on anonymous VMA (->vm_ops == NULL) and make sure that the VMA is not shared. For file mappings without vm_ops->fault() or shred VMA without vm_ops, page fault on pte_none() entry would lead to SIGBUS. Signed-off-by:

commit ca4da5dd upstream. __key_link_end is not freeing the associated array edit structure and this leads to a 512 byte memory leak each time an identical existing key is added with add_key(). The reason the add_key() system call returns okay is that key_create_or_update() calls __key_link_begin() before checking to see whether it can update a key directly rather than adding/replacing - which it turns out it can. Thus __key_link() is not called through __key_instantiate_and_link() and __key_link_end() must cancel the edit. CVE-2015-1333 Signed-off-by:

commit 4fabb594 upstream. Fixes: 3e0249f9 ("RDS/IB: add refcount tracking to struct rds_ib_device") There lacks a dropping on rds_ib_device.refcount in case rds_ib_alloc_fmr failed(mr pool running out). this lead to the refcount overflow. A complain in line 117(see following) is seen. From vmcore: s_ib_rdma_mr_pool_depleted is 2147485544 and rds_ibdev->refcount is -2147475448. That is the evidence the mr pool is used up. so rds_ib_alloc_fmr is very likely to return ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN). 115 void rds_ib_dev_put(struct rds_ib_device *rds_ibdev) 116 { 117 BUG_ON(atomic_read(&rds_ibdev->refcount) <= 0); 118 if (atomic_dec_and_test(&rds_ibdev->refcount)) 119 queue_work(rds_wq, &rds_ibdev->free_work); 120 } fix is to drop refcount when rds_ib_alloc_fmr failed.

commit 9c0fa8dd upstream. At some point: commit 2c86c7ca Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Date: Mon Mar 17 18:18:54 2014 -0300 perf report: Merge al->filtered with hist_entry->filtered We stopped dropping samples for things filtered via the --comms, --dsos, --symbols, etc, i.e. things marked as filtered in the symbol resolution routines (thread__find_addr_map(), perf_event__preprocess_sample(), etc). But then, in: commit 268397cb Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Date: Tue Apr 22 14:49:31 2014 +0900 perf top/tui: Update nr_entries properly after a filter is applied We don't take into account entries that were filtered in perf_event__preprocess_sample() and friends, which leads to inconsistency in the browser seek routines, that expects the number of hist_entry->filtered entries to match what it thinks is the number of unfiltered, browsable entries. So, for instance, when we do: perf top --symbols ___non_existent_symbol___ the hist_browser__nr_entries() routine thinks there are no filters in place, uses the hists->nr_entries but all entries are filtered, leading to a segfault. Tested with: perf top --symbols malloc,free --percentage=relative Freezing, by pressing 'f', at any time and doing the math on the percentages ends up with 100%, ditto for: perf top --dsos libpthread-2.20.so,libxul.so --percentage=relative Both were segfaulting, all fixed now. More work needed to do away with checking if filters are in place, we should just use the nr_non_filtered_samples counter, no need to conditionally use it or hists.nr_filter, as what the browser does is just show unfiltered stuff. An audit of how it is being accounted is needed, this is the minimal fix. Reported-by:

commit 0bc2f2f7 upstream.

commit e9e4dd32 upstream. commit 381c759d ("ipv4: Avoid crashing in ip_error") fixes a problem where processed packet comes from device with destroyed inetdev (dev->ip_ptr). This is not expected because inetdev_destroy is called in NETDEV_UNREGISTER phase and packets should not be processed after dev_close_many() and synchronize_net(). Above fix is still required because inetdev_destroy can be called for other reasons. But it shows the real problem: backlog can keep packets for long time and they do not hold reference to device. Such packets are then delivered to upper levels at the same time when device is unregistered. Calling flush_backlog after NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL still accounts all packets from backlog but before that some packets continue to be delivered to upper levels long after the synchronize_net call which is supposed to wait the last ones. Also, as Eric pointed out, processed packets, mostly from other devices, can continue to add new packets to backlog. Fix the problem by moving flush_backlog early, after the device driver is stopped and before the synchronize_net() call. Then use netif_running check to make sure we do not add more packets to backlog. We have to do it in enqueue_to_backlog context when the local IRQ is disabled. As result, after the flush_backlog and synchronize_net sequence all packets should be accounted. Thanks to Eric W. Biederman for the test script and his valuable feedback! Reported-by:

commit f1158b74 upstream. Since commit b0e9a30d ("bridge: Add vlan id to multicast groups") there's a check in br_ip_equal() for a matching vlan id, but the mdb functions were not modified to use (or at least zero it) so when an entry was added it would have a garbage vlan id (from the local br_ip variable in __br_mdb_add/del) and this would prevent it from being matched and also deleted. So zero out the whole local ip var to protect ourselves from future changes and also to fix the current bug, since there's no vlan id support in the mdb uapi - use always vlan id 0.

commit 810bc075 upstream. We have a tricky bug in the nested NMI code: if we see RSP pointing to the NMI stack on NMI entry from kernel mode, we assume that we are executing a nested NMI. This isn't quite true. A malicious userspace program can point RSP at the NMI stack, issue SYSCALL, and arrange for an NMI to happen while RSP is still pointing at the NMI stack. Fix it with a sneaky trick. Set DF in the region of code that the RSP check is intended to detect. IRET will clear DF atomically. ( Note: other than paravirt, there's little need for all this complexity. We could check RIP instead of RSP. ) Signed-off-by:

commit a27507ca upstream. Check the repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi special case first. The next patch will rework the RSP check and, as a side effect, the RSP check will no longer detect repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi, so we'll need this ordering of the checks. Note: this is more subtle than it appears. The check for repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi jumps straight out of the NMI code instead of adjusting the "iret" frame to force a repeat. This is necessary, because the code between repeat_nmi and end_repeat_nmi sets "NMI executing" and then writes to the "iret" frame itself. If a nested NMI comes in and modifies the "iret" frame while repeat_nmi is also modifying it, we'll end up with garbage. The old code got this right, as does the new code, but the new code is a bit more explicit. If we were to move the check right after the "NMI executing" check, then we'd get it wrong and have random crashes. ( Because the "NMI executing" check would jump to the code that would modify the "iret" frame without checking if the interrupted NMI was currently modifying it. ) Signed-off-by:

commit 9b6e6a83 upstream. Returning to userspace is tricky: IRET can fail, and ESPFIX can rearrange the stack prior to IRET. The NMI nesting fixup relies on a precise stack layout and atomic IRET. Rather than trying to teach the NMI nesting fixup to handle ESPFIX and failed IRET, punt: run NMIs that came from user mode on the normal kernel stack. This will make some nested NMIs visible to C code, but the C code is okay with that. As a side effect, this should speed up perf: it eliminates an RDMSR when NMIs come from user mode. Signed-off-by:

commit 75a06189 upstream. The resend mechanism happily calls the interrupt handler of interrupts which are marked IRQ_NESTED_THREAD from softirq context. This can result in crashes because the interrupt handler is not the proper way to invoke the device handlers. They must be invoked via handle_nested_irq. Prevent the resend even if the interrupt has no valid parent irq set. Its better to have a lost interrupt than a crashing machine. Reported-by:
