[ Upstream commit f1158b74 ] 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.

[ Upstream commit fdd75ea8 ] Calling connect() with an AF_TIPC socket would trigger a series of error messages from SELinux along the lines of: SELinux: Invalid class 0 type=AVC msg=audit(1434126658.487:34500): avc: denied { <unprintable> } for pid=292 comm="kworker/u16:5" scontext=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 tclass=<unprintable> permissive=0 This was due to a failure to initialize the security state of the new connection sock by the tipc code, leaving it with junk in the security class field and an unlabeled secid. Add a call to security_sk_clone() to inherit the security state from the parent socket.

commit 3f7352bf upstream. x86 has variable length encoding. x86 JIT compiler is trying to pick the shortest encoding for given bpf instruction. While doing so the jump targets are changing, so JIT is doing multiple passes over the program. Typical program needs 3 passes. Some very short programs converge with 2 passes. Large programs may need 4 or 5. But specially crafted bpf programs may hit the pass limit and if the program converges on the last iteration the JIT compiler will be producing an image full of 'int 3' insns. Fix this corner case by doing final iteration over bpf program.

commit 59c816c1 upstream. This code in vhost_scsi_make_tpg() is confusing because we limit "tpgt" to UINT_MAX but the data type of "tpg->tport_tpgt" and that is a u16. I looked at the context and it turns out that in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint(), "tpg->tport_tpgt" is used as an offset into the vs_tpg[] array which has VHOST_SCSI_MAX_TARGET (256) elements so anything higher than 255 then it is invalid. I have made that the limit now. In vhost_scsi_send_evt() we mask away values higher than 255, but now that the limit has changed, we don't need the mask.

commit 2d45a02d upstream. ->auto_asconf_splist is per namespace and mangled by functions like sctp_setsockopt_auto_asconf() which doesn't guarantee any serialization. Also, the call to inet_sk_copy_descendant() was backuping ->auto_asconf_list through the copy but was not honoring ->do_auto_asconf, which could lead to list corruption if it was different between both sockets. This commit thus fixes the list handling by using ->addr_wq_lock spinlock to protect the list. A special handling is done upon socket creation and destruction for that. Error handlig on sctp_init_sock() will never return an error after having initialized asconf, so sctp_destroy_sock() can be called without addrq_wq_lock. The lock now will be take on sctp_close_sock(), before locking the socket, so we don't do it in inverse order compared to sctp_addr_wq_timeout_handler(). Instead of taking the lock on sctp_sock_migrate() for copying and restoring the list values, it's preferred to avoid rewritting it by implementing sctp_copy_descendant(). Issue was found with a test application that kept flipping sysctl default_auto_asconf on and off, but one could trigger it by issuing simultaneous setsockopt() calls on multiple sockets or by creating/destroying sockets fast enough. This is only triggerable locally. Fixes: 9f7d653b ("sctp: Add Auto-ASCONF support (core).")

commit 7cb74be6 upstream. Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode) are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed, and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free(). This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du" on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state". Most recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9: $ df -i / /home /mnt Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/mapper/fedora-root 3276800 551665 2725135 17% / /dev/mapper/fedora-home 52879360 716221 52163139 2% /home /dev/nbd0p2 4294967295 1387818 4293579477 1% /mnt After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du /mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours. There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the years. [1] The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel tree. The only reason why it gets away with it is that the kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else, most of the time. The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec 2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(), migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages per inode extents. When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2] in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code) to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging. There was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in __hfs_bnode_create(). In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating the "REF_PAGES <-> !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by !REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

commit 35d4a0b6 upstream. Fixes: 2a72f212 ("IB/uverbs: Remove dev_table") Before this commit there was a device look-up table that was protected by a spin_lock used by ib_uverbs_open and by ib_uverbs_remove_one. When it was dropped and container_of was used instead, it enabled the race with remove_one as dev might be freed just after: dev = container_of(inode->i_cdev, struct ib_uverbs_device, cdev) but before the kref_get. In addition, this buggy patch added some dead code as container_of(x,y,z) can never be NULL and so dev can never be NULL. As a result the comment above ib_uverbs_open saying "the open method will either immediately run -ENXIO" is wrong as it can never happen. The solution follows Jason Gunthorpe suggestion from below URL: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg25692.html cdev will hold a kref on the parent (the containing structure, ib_uverbs_device) and only when that kref is released it is guaranteed that open will never be called again. In addition, fixes the active count scheme to use an atomic not a kref to prevent WARN_ON as pointed by above comment from Jason.

commit 299b0685 upstream. 'reshape_position' tracks where in the reshape we have reached. 'reshape_safe' tracks where in the reshape we have safely recorded in the metadata. These are compared to determine when to update the metadata. So it is important that reshape_safe is initialised properly. Currently it isn't. When starting a reshape from the beginning it usually has the correct value by luck. But when reducing the number of devices in a RAID10, it has the wrong value and this leads to the metadata not being updated correctly. This can lead to corruption if the reshape is not allowed to complete. This patch is suitable for any -stable kernel which supports RAID10 reshape, which is 3.5 and later.

commit fbb18169 upstream. It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim process' virtual memory. Depending on the configuration, it was also possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps. Fix that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files. Requirements for the attack: - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable. - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used. - The attacker has one of these: A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.) This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set protected_hardlinks=1. B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (This seems to be uncommon.) C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks: write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D (This seems to be uncommon.) The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where he expects the victim process to dump its core. The victim process dumps its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from it. If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted (because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1). A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link() and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count check. On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing, victim-writable files with coredumps. (This could theoretically lead to a privilege escalation.)

But shrink_page_list() puts back mlocked pages without passing it to caller and without counting as nr_reclaimed. This increases nr_isolated. To fix this, this patch changes shrink_page_list() to pass unevictable pages back to caller. Caller will take care those pages. Minchan said: It fixes two issues. 1. With unevictable page, cma_alloc will be successful. Exactly speaking, cma_alloc of current kernel will fail due to unevictable pages. 2. fix leaking of NR_ISOLATED counter of vmstat With it, too_many_isolated works. Otherwise, it could make hang until the process get SIGKILL.

commit b1b4e435 upstream. When detecting a serial port on newer PA-RISC machines (with iosapic) we have a long way to go to find the right IRQ line, registering it, then registering the serial port and the irq handler for the serial port. During this phase spurious interrupts for the serial port may happen which then crashes the kernel because the action handler might not have been set up yet. So, basically it's a race condition between the serial port hardware and the CPU which sets up the necessary fields in the irq sructs. The main reason for this race is, that we unmask the serial port irqs too early without having set up everything properly before (which isn't easily possible because we need the IRQ number to register the serial ports). This patch is a work-around for this problem. It adds checks to the CPU irq handler to verify if the IRQ action field has been initialized already. If not, we just skip this interrupt (which isn't critical for a serial port at bootup). The real fix would probably involve rewriting all PA-RISC specific IRQ code (for CPU, IOSAPIC, GSC and EISA) to use IRQ domains with proper parenting of the irq chips and proper irq enabling along this line. This bug has been in the PA-RISC port since the beginning, but the crashes happened very rarely with currently used hardware. But on the latest machine which I bought (a C8000 workstation), which uses the fastest CPUs (4 x PA8900, 1GHz) and which has the largest possible L1 cache size (64MB each), the kernel crashed at every boot because of this race. So, without this patch the machine would currently be unuseable. For the record, here is the flow logic: 1. serial_init_chip() in 8250_gsc.c calls iosapic_serial_irq(). 2. iosapic_serial_irq() calls txn_alloc_irq() to find the irq. 3. iosapic_serial_irq() calls cpu_claim_irq() to register the CPU irq 4. cpu_claim_irq() unmasks the CPU irq (which it shouldn't!) 5. serial_init_chip() then registers the 8250 port. Problems: - In step 4 the CPU irq shouldn't have been registered yet, but after step 5 - If serial irq happens between 4 and 5 have finished, the kernel will crash Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit efcbc04e upstream. It is unusual to combine the open flags O_RDONLY and O_EXCL, but it appears that libre-office does just that. [pid 3250] stat("/home/USER/.config", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=8192, ...}) = 0 [pid 3250] open("/home/USER/.config/libreoffice/4-suse/user/extensions/buildid", O_RDONLY|O_EXCL <unfinished ...> NFSv4 takes O_EXCL as a sign that a setattr command should be sent, probably to reset the timestamps. When it was an O_RDONLY open, the SETATTR command does not identify any actual attributes to change. If no delegation was provided to the open, the SETATTR uses the all-zeros stateid and the request is accepted (at least by the Linux NFS server - no harm, no foul). If a read-delegation was provided, this is used in the SETATTR request, and a Netapp filer will justifiably claim NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID, which the Linux client takes as a sign to retry - indefinitely. So only treat O_EXCL specially if O_CREAT was also given.

commit 1c2cb594 upstream. The EPOW interrupt handler uses rtas_get_sensor(), which in turn uses rtas_busy_delay() to wait for RTAS becoming ready in case it is necessary. But rtas_busy_delay() is annotated with might_sleep() and thus may not be used by interrupts handlers like the EPOW handler!

commit 74b5037b upstream. The powerpc kernel can be built to have either a 4K PAGE_SIZE or a 64K PAGE_SIZE. However when built with a 4K PAGE_SIZE there is an additional config option which can be enabled, PPC_HAS_HASH_64K, which means the kernel also knows how to hash a 64K page even though the base PAGE_SIZE is 4K. This is used in one obscure configuration, to support 64K pages for SPU local store on the Cell processor when the rest of the kernel is using 4K pages. In this configuration, pte_pagesize_index() is defined to just pass through its arguments to get_slice_psize(). However pte_pagesize_index() is called for both user and kernel addresses, whereas get_slice_psize() only knows how to handle user addresses. This has been broken forever, however until recently it happened to work. That was because in get_slice_psize() the large kernel address would cause the right shift of the slice mask to return zero. However in commit 7aa0727f ("powerpc/mm: Increase the slice range to 64TB"), the get_slice_psize() code was changed so that instead of a right shift we do an array lookup based on the address. When passed a kernel address this means we index way off the end of the slice array and return random junk. That is only fatal if we happen to hit something non-zero, but when we do return a non-zero value we confuse the MMU code and eventually cause a check stop. This fix is ugly, but simple. When we're called for a kernel address we return 4K, which is always correct in this configuration, otherwise we use the slice mask.

commit bdec97a8 upstream. When saving/restoring the VFP registers from a compat (AArch32) signal frame, we rely on the compat registers forming a prefix of the native register file and therefore make use of copy_{to,from}_user to transfer between the native fpsimd_state and the compat_vfp_sigframe. Unfortunately, this doesn't work so well in a big-endian environment. Our fpsimd save/restore code operates directly on 128-bit quantities (Q registers) whereas the compat_vfp_sigframe represents the registers as an array of 64-bit (D) registers. The architecture packs the compat D registers into the Q registers, with the least significant bytes holding the lower register. Consequently, we need to swap the 64-bit halves when converting between these two representations on a big-endian machine. This patch replaces the __copy_{to,from}_user invocations in our compat VFP signal handling code with explicit __put_user loops that operate on 64-bit values and swap them accordingly.

commit 3633ebeb upstream. We already set a station to be associated when peering completes, both in user space and in the kernel. Thus we should always have an associated sta before sending data frames to that station. Failure to check assoc state can cause crashes in the lower-level driver due to transmitting unicast data frames before driver sta structures (e.g. ampdu state in ath9k) are initialized. This occurred when forwarding in the presence of fixed mesh paths: frames were transmitted to stations with whom we hadn't yet completed peering.

commit 12c641ab upstream. In the logic in the initial commit of unshare made creating a new thread group for a process, contingent upon creating a new memory address space for that process. That is wrong. Two separate processes in different thread groups can share a memory address space and clone allows creation of such proceses. This is significant because it was observed that mm_users > 1 does not mean that a process is multi-threaded, as reading /proc/PID/maps temporarily increments mm_users, which allows other processes to (accidentally) interfere with unshare() calls. Correct the check in check_unshare_flags() to test for !thread_group_empty() for CLONE_THREAD, CLONE_SIGHAND, and CLONE_VM. For sighand->count > 1 for CLONE_SIGHAND and CLONE_VM. For !current_is_single_threaded instead of mm_users > 1 for CLONE_VM. By using the correct checks in unshare this removes the possibility of an accidental denial of service attack. Additionally using the correct checks in unshare ensures that only an explicit unshare(CLONE_VM) can possibly trigger the slow path of current_is_single_threaded(). As an explict unshare(CLONE_VM) is pointless it is not expected there are many applications that make that call.

commit 7f5dcaf1 upstream. The unregister path of platform_device is broken. On registration, it will register all resources with either a parent already set, or type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}. However, on unregister it will release everything with type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}, but ignore the others. There are also cases where resources don't get registered in the first place, like with devices created by of_platform_populate()*. Fix the unregister path to be symmetrical with the register path by checking the parent pointer instead of the type field to decide which resources to unregister. This is safe because the upshot of the registration path algorithm is that registered resources have a parent pointer, and non-registered resources do not. * It can be argued that of_platform_populate() should be registering it's resources, and they argument has some merit. However, there are quite a few platforms that end up broken if we try to do that due to overlapping resources in the device tree. Until that is fixed, we need to solve the immediate problem.
