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 4f7d2cdf upstream. Jason Gunthorpe reported that since commit c02db8c6 ("rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric"), we don't verify IFLA_VF_INFO attributes anymore with respect to their policy, that is, ifla_vfinfo_policy[]. Before, they were part of ifla_policy[], but they have been nested since placed under IFLA_VFINFO_LIST, that contains the attribute IFLA_VF_INFO, which is another nested attribute for the actual VF attributes such as IFLA_VF_MAC, IFLA_VF_VLAN, etc. Despite the policy being split out from ifla_policy[] in this commit, it's never applied anywhere. nla_for_each_nested() only does basic nla_ok() testing for struct nlattr, but it doesn't know about the data context and their requirements. Fix, on top of Jason's initial work, does 1) parsing of the attributes with the right policy, and 2) using the resulting parsed attribute table from 1) instead of the nla_for_each_nested() loop (just like we used to do when still part of ifla_policy[]).

commit f9c87a6f upstream. If the kernel is compiled with gcc 5.1 and the XZ compression option the decompress_kernel function calls _sclp_print_early in 64-bit mode while the content of the upper register half of %r6 is non-zero. This causes a specification exception on the servc instruction in _sclp_servc. The _sclp_print_early function saves and restores the upper registers halves but it fails to clear them for the 31-bit code of the mini sclp driver. 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 bd7ade3c upstream. sb_getblk() is used during ext4 (and possibly other FSes) writeback paths. Sometimes such path require allocating memory and guaranteeing that such allocation won't block. Currently, however, there is no way to provide user flags for sb_getblk which could lead to deadlocks.

commit 3b5e6454 upstream. A buffer cache is allocated from movable area because it is referred for a while and released soon. But some filesystems are taking buffer cache for a long time and it can disturb page migration. New APIs are introduced to allocate buffer cache with user specific flag. *_gfp APIs are for user want to set page allocation flag for page cache allocation. And *_unmovable APIs are for the user wants to allocate page cache from non-movable area. Signed-off-by:

commit c3f4a168 upstream. The free space entries are allocated using kmem_cache_zalloc(), through __btrfs_add_free_space(), therefore we should use kmem_cache_free() and not kfree() to avoid any confusion and any potential problem. Looking at the kfree() definition at mm/slab.c it has the following comment: /* * (...) * * Don't free memory not originally allocated by kmalloc() * or you will run into trouble. */ So better be safe and use kmem_cache_free().

commit a41cbe86 upstream. A test case is as the description says: open(foobar, O_WRONLY); sleep() --> reboot the server close(foobar) The bug is because in nfs4state.c in nfs4_reclaim_open_state() a few line before going to restart, there is clear_bit(NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE, &state->flags). NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE is a flag for the client states not open owner states. Value of NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_NOGRACE is 4 which is the value of NFS_O_WRONLY_STATE in nfs4_state->flags. So clearing it wipes out state and when we go to close it, “call_close” doesn’t get set as state flag is not set and CLOSE doesn’t go on the wire. Signed-off-by:

commit 397d425d upstream. In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount. In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem. Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component the code will realize it is unconnected. We certainly can not match the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole. Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path return -ENOENT. - Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable from path->mnt.mnt_root. AKA to validate that rename did not do something nasty to the bind mount. To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path component to it's next path component. Signed-off-by:

commit cde93be4 upstream. A rename can result in a dentry that by walking up d_parent will never reach it's mnt_root. For lack of a better term I call this an escaped path. prepend_path is called by four different functions __d_path, d_absolute_path, d_path, and getcwd. __d_path only wants to see paths are connected to the root it passes in. So __d_path needs prepend_path to return an error. d_absolute_path similarly wants to see paths that are connected to some root. Escaped paths are not connected to any mnt_root so d_absolute_path needs prepend_path to return an error greater than 1. So escaped paths will be treated like paths on lazily unmounted mounts. getcwd needs to prepend "(unreachable)" so getcwd also needs prepend_path to return an error. d_path is the interesting hold out. d_path just wants to print something, and does not care about the weird cases. Which raises the question what should be printed? Given that <escaped_path>/<anything> should result in -ENOENT I believe it is desirable for escaped paths to be printed as empty paths. As there are not really any meaninful path components when considered from the perspective of a mount tree. So tweak prepend_path to return an empty path with an new error code of 3 when it encounters an escaped path. Signed-off-by:

commit aebda618 upstream. This fixes an issue introduced in commit b23c8439 (usb: dwc3: gadget: fix DEPSTARTCFG for non-EP0 EPs) that made sure we would only use DEPSTARTCFG once per SetConfig. The trick is that we should use one DEPSTARTCFG per SetConfig *OR* SetInterface. SetInterface was completely missed from the original patch. This problem became aparent after commit 76e838c9 (usb: dwc3: gadget: return error if command sent to DEPCMD register fails) added checking of the return status of device endpoint commands. 'Set Endpoint Transfer Resource' command was caught failing occasionally. This is because the Transfer Resource Index was not getting reset during a SET_INTERFACE request. Finally, to fix the issue, was we have to do is make sure that our start_config_issued flag gets reset whenever we receive a SetInterface request. To verify the problem (and its fix), all we have to do is run test 9 from testusb with 'testusb -t 9 -s 2048 -a -c 5000'. Tested-by:

commit 6b88f44e upstream. While debugging a WARN_ON() for filtering, I found that it is possible for the filter string to be referenced after its end. With the filter: # echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter The filter_parse() function can call infix_get_op() which calls infix_advance() that updates the infix filter pointers for the cnt and tail without checking if the filter is already at the end, which will put the cnt to zero and the tail beyond the end. The loop then calls infix_next() that has ps->infix.cnt--; return ps->infix.string[ps->infix.tail++]; The cnt will now be below zero, and the tail that is returned is already passed the end of the filter string. So far the allocation of the filter string usually has some buffer that is zeroed out, but if the filter string is of the exact size of the allocated buffer there's no guarantee that the charater after the nul terminating character will be zero. Luckily, only root can write to the filter. Signed-off-by:
