[ Upstream commit 0b548e33 ] Fengguang reported soft lockups while running the rbtree and interval tree test modules. The logic for these tests all occur in init phase, and we currently are pounding with the default values for number of nodes and number of iterations of each test. Reduce the latter by two orders of magnitude. This does not influence the value of the tests in that one thousand times by default is enough to get the picture.

commit 3d2c86e3 upstream. Remove networking from Documentation Makefile to move the test to selftests. Update networking/timestamping Makefile to work under selftests. These tests will not be run as part of selftests suite and will not be included in install targets. They can be built and run separately for now. This is part of the effort to move runnable code from Documentation. Acked-by:

Inlining these functions creates lots of stack variables that each take 64 bytes when KASAN is enabled, leading to this warning about potential stack overflow: drivers/net/ethernet/rocker/rocker_ofdpa.c: In function 'ofdpa_cmd_flow_tbl_add': drivers/net/ethernet/rocker/rocker_ofdpa.c:621:1: error: the frame size of 2752 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] gcc-8 can now consolidate the stack slots itself, but on older versions we get the same behavior by using a temporary variable that holds a copy of the inline function argument.

commit 7f7ccc2c upstream. proc_pid_cmdline_read() and environ_read() directly access the target process' VM to retrieve the command line and environment. If this process remaps these areas onto a file via mmap(), the requesting process may experience various issues such as extra delays if the underlying device is slow to respond. Let's simply refuse to access file-backed areas in these functions. For this we add a new FOLL_ANON gup flag that is passed to all calls to access_remote_vm(). The code already takes care of such failures (including unmapped areas). Accesses via /proc/pid/mem were not changed though. This was assigned CVE-2018-1120. Note for stable backports: the patch may apply to kernels prior to 4.11 but silently miss one location; it must be checked that no call to access_remote_vm() keeps zero as the last argument.

commit 272ddc8b upstream. Now that Lorenzo cleaned things up and made the FOLL_FORCE users explicit, it becomes obvious how some of them don't really need FOLL_FORCE at all. So remove FOLL_FORCE from the proc code that reads the command line and arguments from user space. The mem_rw() function actually does want FOLL_FORCE, because gdd (and possibly many other debuggers) use it as a much more convenient version of PTRACE_PEEKDATA, but we should consider making the FOLL_FORCE part conditional on actually being a ptracer. This does not actually do that, just moves adds a comment to that effect and moves the gup_flags settings next to each other. Signed-off-by:

commit 5df63c2a upstream. This is a fix for a regression in 32 bit kernels caused by an invalid check for pgoff overflow in hugetlbfs mmap setup. The check incorrectly specified that the size of a loff_t was the same as the size of a long. The regression prevents mapping hugetlbfs files at offsets greater than 4GB on 32 bit kernels. On 32 bit kernels conversion from a page based unsigned long can not overflow a loff_t byte offset. Therefore, skip this check if sizeof(unsigned long) != sizeof(loff_t).

commit 63489f8e upstream. A vma with vm_pgoff large enough to overflow a loff_t type when converted to a byte offset can be passed via the remap_file_pages system call. The hugetlbfs mmap routine uses the byte offset to calculate reservations and file size. A sequence such as: mmap(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x66033, -1, 0); remap_file_pages(0x20a00000, 0x600000, 0, 0x20000000000000, 0); will result in the following when task exits/file closed, kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:749!

The previous overflow fix to this code was incomplete and did not take the remap_file_pages system call into account.

commit 045c7a3f upstream. If mmap() maps a file, it can be passed an offset into the file at which the mapping is to start. Offset could be a negative value when represented as a loff_t. The offset plus length will be used to update the file size (i_size) which is also a loff_t. Validate the value of offset and offset + length to make sure they do not overflow and appear as negative. Found by syzcaller with commit ff8c0c53 ("mm/hugetlb.c: don't call region_abort if region_chg fails") applied. Prior to this commit, the overflow would still occur but we would luckily return ENOMEM.

commit ff8c0c53 upstream. Changes to hugetlbfs reservation maps is a two step process. The first step is a call to region_chg to determine what needs to be changed, and prepare that change. This should be followed by a call to call to region_add to commit the change, or region_abort to abort the change. The error path in hugetlb_reserve_pages called region_abort after a failed call to region_chg. As a result, the adds_in_progress counter in the reservation map is off by 1. This is caught by a VM_BUG_ON in resv_map_release when the reservation map is freed. syzkaller fuzzer (when using an injected kmalloc failure) found this bug, that resulted in the following: kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:742!

commit 78c9c4df upstream. The posix timer overrun handling is broken because the forwarding functions can return a huge number of overruns which does not fit in an int. As a consequence timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun can turn into random number generators. The k_clock::timer_forward() callbacks return a 64 bit value now. Make k_itimer::ti_overrun[_last] 64bit as well, so the kernel internal accounting is correct. 3Remove the temporary (int) casts. Add a helper function which clamps the overrun value returned to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) or siginfo::si_overrun limited to a positive value between 0 and INT_MAX. INT_MAX is an indicator for user space that the overrun value has been clamped. Reported-by:

commit ccbcd267 upstream. AMD is proposing a VIRT_SPEC_CTRL MSR to handle the Speculative Store Bypass Disable via MSR_AMD64_LS_CFG so that guests do not have to care about the bit position of the SSBD bit and thus facilitate migration. Also, the sibling coordination on Family 17H CPUs can only be done on the host. Extend x86_spec_ctrl_set_guest() and x86_spec_ctrl_restore_host() with an extra argument for the VIRT_SPEC_CTRL MSR. Hand in 0 from VMX and in SVM add a new virt_spec_ctrl member to the CPU data structure which is going to be used in later patches for the actual implementation. Signed-off-by:

commit 5cf68754 upstream. A guest may modify the SPEC_CTRL MSR from the value used by the kernel. Since the kernel doesn't use IBRS, this means a value of zero is what is needed in the host. But the 336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf refers to the other bits as reserved so the kernel should respect the boot time SPEC_CTRL value and use that. This allows to deal with future extensions to the SPEC_CTRL interface if any at all. Note: This uses wrmsrl() instead of native_wrmsl(). I does not make any difference as paravirt will over-write the callq *0xfff.. with the wrmsrl assembler code. Signed-off-by:

commit 304ec1b0 upstream. Quoting Linus: I do think that it would be a good idea to very expressly document the fact that it's not that the user access itself is unsafe. I do agree that things like "get_user()" want to be protected, but not because of any direct bugs or problems with get_user() and friends, but simply because get_user() is an excellent source of a pointer that is obviously controlled from a potentially attacking user space. So it's a prime candidate for then finding _subsequent_ accesses that can then be used to perturb the cache. __uaccess_begin_nospec() covers __get_user() and copy_from_iter() where the limit check is far away from the user pointer de-reference. In those cases a barrier_nospec() prevents speculation with a potential pointer to privileged memory. uaccess_try_nospec covers get_user_try. Suggested-by:
