commit 854145e0 upstream. Currently register functions for events will be called through the 'reg' field of event class directly without any check when seting up triggers. Triggers for events that don't support register through debug fs (events under events/ftrace are for trace-cmd to read event format, and most of them don't have a register function except events/ftrace/functionx) can't be enabled at all, and an oops will be hit when setting up trigger for those events, so just not creating them is an easy way to avoid the oops.

Linus Torvalds authored
commit 689de1d6 upstream. This is a fairly minimal fixup to the horribly bad behavior of hash_64() with certain input patterns. In particular, because the multiplicative value used for the 64-bit hash was intentionally bit-sparse (so that the multiply could be done with shifts and adds on architectures without hardware multipliers), some bits did not get spread out very much. In particular, certain fairly common bit ranges in the input (roughly bits 12-20: commonly with the most information in them when you hash things like byte offsets in files or memory that have block factors that mean that the low bits are often zero) would not necessarily show up much in the result. There's a bigger patch-series brewing to fix up things more completely, but this is the fairly minimal fix for the 64-bit hashing problem. It simply picks a much better constant multiplier, spreading the bits out a lot better. NOTE! For 32-bit architectures, the bad old hash_64() remains the same for now, since 64-bit multiplies are expensive. The bigger hashing cleanup will replace the 32-bit case with something better. The new constants were picked by George Spelvin who wrote that bigger cleanup series. I just picked out the constants and part of the comment from that series.

commit b4c11211 upstream. In create_zero_mask() we have: addi %1,%2,-1 andc %1,%1,%2 popcntd %0,%1 using the "r" constraint for %2. r0 is a valid register in the "r" set, but addi X,r0,X turns it into an li: li r7,-1 andc r7,r7,r0 popcntd r4,r7 Fix this by using the "b" constraint, for which r0 is not a valid register. This was found with a kernel build using gcc trunk, narrowed down to when -frename-registers was enabled at -O2. It is just luck however that we aren't seeing this on older toolchains.

commit c4fc1956 upstream. Both of these drivers can return NOTIFY_BAD, but this terminates processing other callbacks that were registered later on the chain. Since the driver did nothing to log the error it seems wrong to prevent other interested parties from seeing it. E.g. neither of them had even bothered to check the type of the error to see if it was a memory error before the return NOTIFY_BAD.

commit 3486b85a upstream. Khugepaged detects own VMAs by checking vm_file and vm_ops but this way it cannot distinguish private /dev/zero mappings from other special mappings like /dev/hpet which has no vm_ops and popultes PTEs in mmap.

commit e6bd18f5 upstream. The drivers/infiniband stack uses write() as a replacement for bi-directional ioctl(). This is not safe. There are ways to trigger write calls that result in the return structure that is normally written to user space being shunted off to user specified kernel memory instead. For the immediate repair, detect and deny suspicious accesses to the write API. For long term, update the user space libraries and the kernel API to something that doesn't present the same security vulnerabilities (likely a structured ioctl() interface). The impacted uAPI interfaces are generally only available if hardware from drivers/infiniband is installed in the system.

commit 5eaa60c7 upstream. The driver's VDD on/off logic assumes that whenever the VDD is on we also hold an AUX power domain reference. Since BIOS can leave the VDD on during booting and resuming and on DDI platforms we won't take a corresponding power reference, the above assumption won't hold on those platforms and an eventual delayed VDD off work will do an extraneous AUX power domain put resulting in a refcount underflow. Fix this the same way we did this for non-DDI DP encoders: commit 6d93c0c4 ("drm/i915: fix VDD state tracking after system resume") At the same time call the DP encoder suspend handler the same way as the non-DDI DP encoders do to flush any pending VDD off work. Leaving the work running may cause a HW access where we don't expect this (at a point where power domains are suspended already). While at it remove an unnecessary function call indirection. This fixed for me AUX refcount underflow problems on BXT during suspend/resume.

commit dab9a266 upstream. During system resume we depended on pci_enable_device() also putting the device into PCI D0 state. This won't work if the PCI device was already enabled but still in D3 state. This is because pci_enable_device() is refcounted and will not change the HW state if called with a non-zero refcount. Leaving the device in D3 will make all subsequent device accesses fail. This didn't cause a problem most of the time, since we resumed with an enable refcount of 0. But it fails at least after module reload because after that we also happen to leak a PCI device enable reference: During probing we call drm_get_pci_dev() which will enable the PCI device, but during device removal drm_put_dev() won't disable it. This is a bug of its own in DRM core, but without much harm as it only leaves the PCI device enabled. Fixing it is also a bit more involved, due to DRM mid-layering and because it affects non-i915 drivers too. The fix in this patch is valid regardless of the problem in DRM core. v2: - Add a code comment about the relation of this fix to the freeze/thaw vs. the suspend/resume phases. (Ville) - Add a code comment about the inconsistent ordering of set power state and device enable calls.

commit d6776bba upstream. Keep IRQ mappings on context teardown. This won't leak IRQs as if we allocate the mapping again, the generic code will give the same mapping used last time. Doing this works around a race in the generic code. Masking the interrupt introduces a race which can crash the kernel or result in IRQ that is never EOIed. The lost of EOI results in all subsequent mappings to the same HW IRQ never receiving an interrupt. We've seen this race with cxl test cases which are doing heavy context startup and teardown at the same time as heavy interrupt load. A fix to the generic code is being investigated also.

If from_schedule is true, that means that finally blk_mq_insert_requests() offloads execution of __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and uses kblockd workqueue, i.e. it calls kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on(). That means, that we race with another CPU, which is about to execute __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() work. Further debugging shows the following traces from different CPUs: CPU#0 CPU#1 ---------------------------------- ------------------------------- reqeust A inserted STORE hctx->ctx_map[0] bit marked kblockd_schedule...() returns 1 <schedule to kblockd workqueue> request B inserted STORE hctx->ctx_map[1] bit marked kblockd_schedule...() returns 0 *** WORK PENDING bit is cleared *** flush_busy_ctxs() is executed, but bit 1, set by CPU#1, is not observed As a result request B pended forever. This behaviour can be explained by speculative LOAD of hctx->ctx_map on CPU#0, which is reordered with clear of PENDING bit and executed _before_ actual STORE of bit 1 on CPU#1. The proper fix is an explicit full barrier <mfence>, which guarantees that clear of PENDING bit is to be executed before all possible speculative LOADS or STORES inside actual work function.

commit 10ff4c52 upstream. The exynos5 I2C controller driver always prepares and enables a clock before using it and then disables unprepares it when the clock is not used anymore. But this can cause a possible ABBA deadlock in some scenarios since a driver that uses regmap to access its I2C registers, will first grab the regmap lock and then the I2C xfer function will grab the prepare lock when preparing the I2C clock. But since the clock driver also uses regmap for I2C accesses, preparing a clock will first grab the prepare lock and then the regmap lock when using the regmap API. An example of this happens on the Exynos5422 Odroid XU4 board where a s2mps11 PMIC is used and both the s2mps11 regulators and clk drivers share the same I2C regmap. The possible deadlock is reported by the kernel lockdep: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(sec_core:428:(regmap)->lock); lock(prepare_lock); lock(sec_core:428:(regmap)->lock); lock(prepare_lock); *** DEADLOCK *** Fix it by leaving the code prepared on probe and use {en,dis}able in the I2C transfer function. This patch is similar to commit 34e81ad5 ("i2c: s3c2410: fix ABBA deadlock by keeping clock prepared") that fixes the same bug in other driver for an I2C controller found in Samsung SoCs.

commit 47325078 upstream. The dummy component is reused for all cards so we special case and don't bind it to any of them. This means that code like that displaying the component widgets that tries to look at the card will crash. In the future we will fix this by ensuring that the dummy component looks like other components but that is invasive and so not suitable for a fix. Instead add a special case check here.

commit 8b8addf8 upstream. Currently on i386 and on X86_64 when emulating X86_32 in legacy mode, only the stack and the executable are randomized but not other mmapped files (libraries, vDSO, etc.). This patch enables randomization for the libraries, vDSO and mmap requests on i386 and in X86_32 in legacy mode. By default on i386 there are 8 bits for the randomization of the libraries, vDSO and mmaps which only uses 1MB of VA. This patch preserves the original randomness, using 1MB of VA out of 3GB or 4GB. We think that 1MB out of 3GB is not a big cost for having the ASLR. The first obvious security benefit is that all objects are randomized (not only the stack and the executable) in legacy mode which highly increases the ASLR effectiveness, otherwise the attackers may use these non-randomized areas. But also sensitive setuid/setgid applications are more secure because currently, attackers can disable the randomization of these applications by setting the ulimit stack to "unlimited". This is a very old and widely known trick to disable the ASLR in i386 which has been allowed for too long. Another trick used to disable the ASLR was to set the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE personality flag, but fortunately this doesn't work on setuid/setgid applications because there is security checks which clear Security-relevant flags. This patch always randomizes the mmap_legacy_base address, removing the possibility to disable the ASLR by setting the stack to "unlimited".

commit 204db6ed upstream. The arch_randomize_brk() function is used on several architectures, even those that don't support ET_DYN ASLR.

commit d1fd836d upstream. This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, and x86. The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as well (mmap), and vice versa. Further details and a PoC of this attack is available here: http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR region: $ ./show_mmaps_pie 54859ccd6000-54859ccd7000 r-xp ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced6000-54859ced7000 r--p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 54859ced7000-54859ced8000 rw-p ... /tmp/show_mmaps_pie 7f75be764000-7f75be91f000 r-xp ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75be91f000-7f75beb1f000 ---p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb1f000-7f75beb23000 r--p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb23000-7f75beb25000 rw-p ... /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 7f75beb25000-7f75beb2a000 rw-p ... 7f75beb2a000-7f75beb4d000 r-xp ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed45000-7f75bed46000 rw-p ... 7f75bed46000-7f75bed47000 r-xp ... 7f75bed47000-7f75bed4c000 rw-p ... 7f75bed4c000-7f75bed4d000 r--p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4d000-7f75bed4e000 rw-p ... /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 7f75bed4e000-7f75bed4f000 rw-p ... 7fffb3741000-7fffb3762000 rw-p ...

commit 2b68f6ca upstream. When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location, a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base. In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for describing this feature on architectures that support it (which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390 already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

commit 4ba2815d upstream. The base address (STACK_TOP / 3 * 2) for a 64-bit program is two thirds into the 4GB segment at 0x2aa00000000. The randomization added on z13 can eat another 1GB of the remaining 1.33GB to the next 4GB boundary. In the worst case 300MB are left for the executable + bss which may cross into the next 4GB segment. This is bad for branch prediction, therefore align the base address to 4GB to give the program more room before it crosses the 4GB boundary.

commit fbbc400f upstream. To address the "offset2lib" ASLR weakness[1], this separates ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR, as already done on s390. The architectures that are already randomizing mmap (arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, and x86), have their various forms of arch_mmap_rnd() made available via the new CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE. For these architectures, arch_randomize_brk() is collapsed as well. This is an alternative to the solutions in: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/23/442 I've been able to test x86 and arm, and the buildbot (so far) seems happy with building the rest. [1] http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html This patch (of 10): In preparation for splitting out ET_DYN ASLR, this moves the ASLR calculations for mmap on ARM into a separate routine, similar to x86. This also removes the redundant check of personality (PF_RANDOMIZE is already set before calling arch_pick_mmap_layout).

commit b348d7dd upstream. Fix potential out-of-bounds write to urb->transfer_buffer usbip handles network communication directly in the kernel. When receiving a packet from its peer, usbip code parses headers according to protocol. As part of this parsing urb->actual_length is filled. Since the input for urb->actual_length comes from the network, it should be treated as untrusted. Any entity controlling the network may put any value in the input and the preallocated urb->transfer_buffer may not be large enough to hold the data. Thus, the malicious entity is able to write arbitrary data to kernel memory.
