commit 707e59ba upstream. The following commit: 1fb3a8b2 ("xen/spinlock: Fix locking path engaging too soon under PVHVM.") ... moved the initalization of the kicker interrupt until after native_cpu_up() is called. However, when using qspinlocks, a CPU may try to kick another CPU that is spinning (because it has not yet initialized its kicker interrupt), resulting in the following crash during boot: kernel BUG at /build/linux-Ay7j_C/linux-4.4.0/drivers/xen/events/events_base.c:1210! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ...

This check isn't racy, because the target is waiting for the spinlock, so it won't have initialized the interrupt in the meantime. Signed-off-by:

commit a9f61ca7 upstream. When we crash from NMI context (e.g. after NMI injection from host when 'sysctl -w kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1' is set) we hit kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:1530! as vfree() is denied. While the issue could be solved with in_nmi() check instead I opted for skipping vfree on all sorts of crashes to reduce the amount of work which can cause consequent crashes. We don't really need to free anything on crash. Signed-off-by:

commit 77c0c973 upstream. When we iterate through all HA regions in handle_pg_range() we have an assumption that all these regions are sorted in the list and the 'start_pfn >= has->end_pfn' check is enough to find the proper region. Unfortunately it's not the case with WS2016 where host can hot-add regions in a different order. We end up modifying the wrong HA region and crashing later on pages online. Modify the check to make sure we found the region we were searching for while iterating. Fix the same check in pfn_covered() as well. Signed-off-by:

commit bcb48cca upstream. The Cherryview GPIO controller has 8 or 16 wires connected to the I/O-APIC which can be used directly by the platform/BIOS or drivers. One such wire is used as SCI (System Control Interrupt) which ACPI depends on to be able to trigger GPEs (General Purpose Events). The pinctrl driver itself uses another IRQ resource which is wire OR of all the 8 (or 16) wires and follows what BIOS has programmed to the IntSel register of each pin. Currently the driver masks all interrupts at probe time and this prevents these direct interrupts from working as expected. The reason for this is that some early stage prototypes had some pins misconfigured causing lots of spurious interrupts. We fix this by leaving the interrupt mask untouched. This allows SCI and other direct interrupts work properly. What comes to the possible spurious interrupts we switch the default handler to be handle_bad_irq() instead of handle_simple_irq() (which was not correct anyway). Reported-by:

commit 83430833 upstream. With the current value of cmd_per_lun at 16, the throughput over a single adapter is limited to around 150kIOPS. Increase the value of cmd_per_lun to 256 to improve throughput. With this change a single adapter is able to attain close to the maximum throughput (380kIOPS). Also change the number of RRQ entries that can be queued. Signed-off-by:

commit ab2a4bf8 upstream. The USB core contains a bug that can show up when a USB-3 host controller is removed. If the primary (USB-2) hcd structure is released before the shared (USB-3) hcd, the core will try to do a double-free of the common bandwidth_mutex. The problem was described in graphical form by Chung-Geol Kim, who first reported it: ================================================= At *remove USB(3.0) Storage sequence <1> --> <5> ((Problem Case)) ================================================= VOLD ------------------------------------|------------ (uevent) ________|_________ |<1> | |dwc3_otg_sm_work | |usb_put_hcd | |peer_hcd(kref=2)| |__________________| ________|_________ |<2> | |New USB BUS #2 | | | |peer_hcd(kref=1) | | | --(Link)-bandXX_mutex| | |__________________| | ___________________ | |<3> | | |dwc3_otg_sm_work | | |usb_put_hcd | | |primary_hcd(kref=1)| | |___________________| | _________|_________ | |<4> | | |New USB BUS #1 | | |hcd_release | | |primary_hcd(kref=0)| | | | | |bandXX_mutex(free) |<- |___________________| (( VOLD )) ______|___________ |<5> | | SCSI | |usb_put_hcd | |peer_hcd(kref=0) | |*hcd_release | |bandXX_mutex(free*)|<- double free |__________________| ================================================= This happens because hcd_release() frees the bandwidth_mutex whenever it sees a primary hcd being released (which is not a very good idea in any case), but in the course of releasing the primary hcd, it changes the pointers in the shared hcd in such a way that the shared hcd will appear to be primary when it gets released. This patch fixes the problem by changing hcd_release() so that it deallocates the bandwidth_mutex only when the _last_ hcd structure referencing it is released. The patch also removes an unnecessary test, so that when an hcd is released, both the shared_hcd and primary_hcd pointers in the hcd's peer will be cleared. Signed-off-by:

As hub_port_reset() is called several times in hub_port_init() it sounds reasonable that we could end up with two threads having their xhci device slots in default state at the same time, which according to xhci 4.5.3 specs still is a big no no: "Note: Software shall not transition more than one Device Slot to the Default State at a time" So both threads fail at their next task after this. One fails to read the descriptor, and the other fails addressing the device. Fix this in hub_port_init by locking the USB controller (instead of an individual bus) to prevent simultaneous initialisation of both buses.

commit c236c8e9 upstream. While working on the futex code, I stumbled over this potential use-after-free scenario. Dmitry triggered it later with syzkaller. pi_mutex is a pointer into pi_state, which we drop the reference on in unqueue_me_pi(). So any access to that pointer after that is bad. Since other sites already do rt_mutex_unlock() with hb->lock held, see for example futex_lock_pi(), simply move the unlock before unqueue_me_pi(). Reported-by:

commit 42d97eb0 upstream. Attempting to link a device node, named pipe, or socket file into an encrypted directory through rename(2) or link(2) always failed with EPERM. This happened because fscrypt_has_permitted_context() saw that the file was unencrypted and forbid creating the link. This behavior was unexpected because such files are never encrypted; only regular files, directories, and symlinks can be encrypted. To fix this, make fscrypt_has_permitted_context() always return true on special files. This will be covered by a test in my encryption xfstests patchset.

[ Upstream commit 45caeaa5 ] As Eric Dumazet pointed out this also needs to be fixed in IPv6. v2: Contains the IPv6 tcp/Ipv6 dccp patches as well. We have seen a few incidents lately where a dst_enty has been freed with a dangling TCP socket reference (sk->sk_dst_cache) pointing to that dst_entry. If the conditions/timings are right a crash then ensues when the freed dst_entry is referenced later on. A Common crashing back trace is: #8 [] page_fault at ffffffff8163e648 [exception RIP: __tcp_ack_snd_check+74] . . #9 [] tcp_rcv_established at ffffffff81580b64 #10 [] tcp_v4_do_rcv at ffffffff8158b54a #11 [] tcp_v4_rcv at ffffffff8158cd02 #12 [] ip_local_deliver_finish at ffffffff815668f4 #13 [] ip_local_deliver at ffffffff81566bd9 #14 [] ip_rcv_finish at ffffffff8156656d #15 [] ip_rcv at ffffffff81566f06 #16 [] __netif_receive_skb_core at ffffffff8152b3a2 #17 [] __netif_receive_skb at ffffffff8152b608 #18 [] netif_receive_skb at ffffffff8152b690 #19 [] vmxnet3_rq_rx_complete at ffffffffa015eeaf [vmxnet3] #20 [] vmxnet3_poll_rx_only at ffffffffa015f32a [vmxnet3] #21 [] net_rx_action at ffffffff8152bac2 #22 [] __do_softirq at ffffffff81084b4f #23 [] call_softirq at ffffffff8164845c #24 [] do_softirq at ffffffff81016fc5 #25 [] irq_exit at ffffffff81084ee5 #26 [] do_IRQ at ffffffff81648ff8 Of course it may happen with other NIC drivers as well. It's found the freed dst_entry here: 224 static bool tcp_in_quickack_mode(struct sock *sk)

All the vmcores showed 2 significant clues: - Remote hosts behind the default gateway had always been redirected to a different gateway. A rtable/dst_entry will be added for that host. Making more dst_entrys with lower reference counts. Making this more probable. - All vmcores showed a postitive LockDroppedIcmps value, e.g: LockDroppedIcmps 267 A closer look at the tcp_v4_err() handler revealed that do_redirect() will run regardless of whether user space has the socket locked. This can result in a race condition where the same dst_entry cached in sk->sk_dst_entry can be decremented twice for the same socket via: do_redirect()->__sk_dst_check()-> dst_release(). Which leads to the dst_entry being prematurely freed with another socket pointing to it via sk->sk_dst_cache and a subsequent crash. To fix this skip do_redirect() if usespace has the socket locked. Instead let the redirect take place later when user space does not have the socket locked. The dccp/IPv6 code is very similar in this respect, so fixing it there too. As Eric Garver pointed out the following commit now invalidates routes. Which can set the dst->obsolete flag so that ipv4_dst_check() returns null and triggers the dst_release().

[ Upstream commit a13b2082 ] Andreas reports kernel oops during rmmod of the br_netfilter module. Hannes debugged the oops down to a NULL rt6info->rt6i_indev. Problem is that br_netfilter has the nasty concept of adding a fake rtable to skb->dst; this happens in a br_netfilter prerouting hook. A second hook (in bridge LOCAL_IN) is supposed to remove these again before the skb is handed up the stack. However, on module unload hooks get unregistered which means an skb could traverse the prerouting hook that attaches the fake_rtable, while the 'fake rtable remove' hook gets removed from the hooklist immediately after.

[ Upstream commit 79e49503 ] ip6_fragment, in case skb has a fraglist, checks if the skb is cloned. If it is, it will move to the 'slow path' and allocates new skbs for each fragment. However, right before entering the slowpath loop, it updates the nexthdr value of the last ipv6 extension header to NEXTHDR_FRAGMENT, to account for the fragment header that will be inserted in the new ipv6-fragment skbs. In case original skb is cloned this munges nexthdr value of another skb. Avoid this by doing the nexthdr update for each of the new fragment skbs separately. This was observed with tcpdump on a bridge device where netfilter ipv6 reassembly is active: tcpdump shows malformed fragment headers as the l4 header (icmpv6, tcp, etc). is decoded as a fragment header.

[ Upstream commit 67e19400 ] Commit 27596472 ("ipv6: fix ECMP route replacement") introduced a loop that removes all siblings of an ECMP route that is being replaced. However, this loop doesn't stop when it has replaced siblings, and keeps removing other routes with a higher metric. We also end up triggering the WARN_ON after the loop, because after this nsiblings < 0. Instead, stop the loop when we have taken care of all routes with the same metric as the route being replaced.

[ Upstream commit 13baa00a ] It is now very clear that silly TCP listeners might play with enabling/disabling timestamping while new children are added to their accept queue. Meaning net_enable_timestamp() can be called from BH context while current state of the static key is not enabled. Lets play safe and allow all contexts. The work queue is scheduled only under the problematic cases, which are the static key enable/disable transition, to not slow down critical paths. This extends and improves what we did in commit 5fa8bbda ("net: use a work queue to defer net_disable_timestamp() work") Fixes: b90e5794 ("net: dont call jump_label_dec from irq context") Signed-off-by:

commit d1b4c689 upstream. mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues: - TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via commit 4682a035 ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.") because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink attribute validation but before message processing. - RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet payload to userspace. However, since commit ae08ce00 ("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper). The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket behave different from normal skbs: - they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo() (e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used. - reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as it expects message to start at skb->head. See for instance commit aa3a0220 ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump"). - skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached. Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf35 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches"). mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper used by nfqueue and openvswitch. Daniel Borkmann fixed this via commit 6bb0fef4 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining length to the allocation function. nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink: - mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages. Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot, but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A since seqno is decided later. To fix this we would need to extend the spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which isn't desirable. - nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace. Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation in the kernel, so this is a desirable option. However, with a mmap based ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets. To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.
