PATCH 1/58 parisc: Increase thread and stack size to 32kb

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <[email protected]>

commit 8f8201dfed91a43ac38c899c82f81eef3d36afd9 upstream.

Since kernel 4.11 the thread and irq stacks on parisc randomly overflow the default size of 16k. The reason why stack usage suddenly grew is yet unknown.

PATCH 2/58 libata: array underflow in ata_find_dev()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>

commit 59a5e266c3f5c1567508888dd61a45b86daed0fa upstream.

My static checker complains that "devno" can be negative, meaning that we read before the start of the loop. I've looked at the code, and I think the warning is right. This come from /proc so it's root only or it would be quite a quite a serious bug. The call tree looks like this:

proc_scsi_write() <- gets id and channel from simple_strtoul() -> scsi_add_single_device() <- calls shost->transportt->user_scan()
-> ata_scsi_user_scan()

      -> ata_find_dev()

PATCH 3/58 workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <[email protected]>

commit 5c0338c68706be53b3dc472e4308961c36e4ece1 upstream.

The combination of WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 used to imply ordered execution. After NUMA affinity 4c16bd327c74 ("workqueue:
implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues"), this is no longer true due to per-node worker pools.

While the right way to create an ordered workqueue is alloc_ordered_workqueue(), the documentation has been misleading for a long time and people do use WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 for ordered workqueues which can lead to subtle bugs which are very difficult to trigger.

It's unlikely that we'd see noticeable performance impact by enforcing ordering on WQ_UNBOUND / max_active == 1 workqueues. Let's automatically set __WQ_ORDERED for those workqueues.

Fixes 4c16bd327c74 ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues")

PATCH 5/58 ASoC: do not close shared backend dailink

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Banajit Goswami <[email protected]>

commit b1cd2e34c69a2f3988786af451b6e17967c293a0 upstream.

Multiple frontend dailinks may be connected to a backend dailink at the same time. When one of frontend dailinks is closed, the associated backend dailink should not be closed if it is connected to other active frontend dailinks. Change ensures that backend dailink is closed only after all connected frontend dailinks are closed.

PATCH 7/58 mm/page_alloc: Remove kernel address exposure in free_reserved_area()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Poimboeuf <[email protected]>

commit adb1fe9ae2ee6ef6bc10f3d5a588020e7664dfa7 upstream.

Linus suggested we try to remove some of the low-hanging fruit related to kernel address exposure in dmesg. The only leaks I see on my local system are:

Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K (ffffffff9e309000 - ffffffff9e311000) Freeing initrd memory: 10588K (ffffa0b736b42000 - ffffa0b737599000) Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K (ffffffff9df87000 - ffffffff9e309000) Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K (ffffa0b7288ae000 - ffffa0b728a00000) Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K (ffffa0b728d62000 - ffffa0b728e00000)

Linus says:

"I suspect we should just remove [the addresses in the 'Freeing'
messages]. I'm sure they are useful in theory, but I suspect they were more useful back when the whole "free init memory" was originally done.

These days, if we have a use-after-free, I suspect the init-mem situation is the easiest situation by far. Compared to all the dynamic allocations which are much more likely to show it anyway. So having debug output for that case is likely not all that productive."

With this patch the freeing messages now look like this:

Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K
Freeing initrd memory: 10588K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K

PATCH 8/58 ext4: fix SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA for blocksize < pagesize

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jan Kara <[email protected]>

commit fcf5ea10992fbac3c7473a1db33d56a139333cd1 upstream.

ext4_find_unwritten_pgoff() does not properly handle a situation when starting index is in the middle of a page and blocksize < pagesize. The following command shows the bug on filesystem with 1k blocksize:

  xfs_io -f -c "falloc 0 4k" \
            -c "pwrite 1k 1k" \
            -c "pwrite 3k 1k" \
            -c "seek -a -r 0" foo

In this example, neither lseek(fd, 1024, SEEK_HOLE) nor lseek(fd, 2048, SEEK_DATA) will return the correct result.

Fix the problem by neglecting buffers in a page before starting offset.

PATCH 10/58 ARM: dts: armada-38x: Fix irq type for pca955

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gregory CLEMENT <[email protected]>

commit 8d4514173211586c6238629b1ef1e071927735f5 upstream.

As written in the datasheet the PCA955 can only handle low level irq and not edge irq.

Without this fix the interrupt is not usable for pca955: the gpio-pca953x driver already set the irq type as low level which is incompatible with edge type, then the kernel prevents using the interrupt:

"irq: type mismatch, failed to map hwirq-18 for
/soc/internal-regs/gpio@18100!"

Fixes 928413bd859c ("ARM: mvebu: Add Armada 388 General Purpose

PATCH 11/58 media: platform: davinci: return -EINVAL for VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS ioctl

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Prabhakar Lad <[email protected]>

commit da05d52d2f0f6bd61094a0cd045fed94bf7d673a upstream.

this patch makes sure VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS ioctl no longer works for vpfe_capture driver with a minimal patch suitable for backporting.

- This ioctl was never in public api and was only defined in kernel header.
- The function set_params constantly mixes up pointers and phys_addr_t numbers.
- This is part of a 'VPFE_CMD_S_CCDC_RAW_PARAMS' ioctl command that is described as an 'experimental ioctl that will change in future kernels'.
- The code to allocate the table never gets called after we copy_from_user the user input over the kernel settings, and then compare them for inequality.
- We then go on to use an address provided by user space as both the __user pointer for input and pass it through phys_to_virt to come up with a kernel pointer to copy the data to. This looks like a trivially exploitable root hole.

Due to these reasons we make sure this ioctl now returns -EINVAL and backport this patch as far as possible.

PATCH 12/58 target: Avoid mappedlun symlink creation during lun shutdown

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>

commit 49cb77e297dc611a1b795cfeb79452b3002bd331 upstream.

This patch closes a race between se_lun deletion during configfs unlink in target_fabric_port_unlink() -> core_dev_del_lun() -> core_tpg_remove_lun(), when transport_clear_lun_ref() blocks waiting for percpu_ref RCU grace period to finish, but a new NodeACL mappedlun is added before the RCU grace period has completed.

This can happen in target_fabric_mappedlun_link() because it only checks for se_lun->lun_se_dev, which is not cleared until after transport_clear_lun_ref() percpu_ref RCU grace period finishes.

This bug originally manifested as NULL pointer dereference OOPsen in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() on v4.1.y code, because it dereferences lun->lun_se_dev without a explicit NULL pointer check.

In post v4.1 code with target-core RCU conversion, the code in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() no longer uses se_lun->lun_se_dev, but the same race still exists.

To address the bug, go ahead and set se_lun>lun_shutdown as early as possible in core_tpg_remove_lun(), and ensure new NodeACL mappedlun creation in target_fabric_mappedlun_link() fails during se_lun shutdown.

PATCH 13/58 iscsi-target: Always wait for kthread_should_stop() before kthread exit

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiang Yi <[email protected]>

commit 5e0cf5e6c43b9e19fc0284f69e5cd2b4a47523b0 upstream.

There are three timing problems in the kthread usages of iscsi_target_mod:

- np_thread of struct iscsi_np
- rx_thread and tx_thread of struct iscsi_conn

In iscsit_close_connection(), it calls

send_sig(SIGINT, conn->tx_thread, 1);
kthread_stop(conn->tx_thread);

In conn->tx_thread, which is iscsi_target_tx_thread(), when it receive SIGINT the kthread will exit without checking the return value of kthread_should_stop().

So if iscsi_target_tx_thread() exit right between send_sig(SIGINT...) and kthread_stop(...), the kthread_stop() will try to stop an already stopped kthread.

This is invalid according to the documentation of kthread_stop().

(Fix -ECONNRESET logout handling in iscsi_target_tx_thread and
early iscsi_target_rx_thread failure case - nab)

PATCH 14/58 iscsi-target: Fix early sk_data_ready LOGIN_FLAGS_READY race

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>

commit 8f0dfb3d8b1120c61f6e2cc3729290db10772b2d upstream.

There is a iscsi-target/tcp login race in LOGIN_FLAGS_READY state assignment that can result in frequent errors during iscsi discovery:

"iSCSI Login negotiation failed."

To address this bug, move the initial LOGIN_FLAGS_READY assignment ahead of iscsi_target_do_login() when handling the initial iscsi_target_start_negotiation() request PDU during connection login.

As iscsi_target_do_login_rx() work_struct callback is clearing LOGIN_FLAGS_READ_ACTIVE after subsequent calls to iscsi_target_do_login(), the early sk_data_ready ahead of the first iscsi_target_do_login() expects LOGIN_FLAGS_READY to also be set for the initial login request PDU.

As reported by Maged, this was first obsered using an MSFT initiator running across multiple VMWare host virtual machines with iscsi-target/tcp.

PATCH 15/58 iscsi-target: Fix initial login PDU asynchronous socket close OOPs

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>

commit 25cdda95fda78d22d44157da15aa7ea34be3c804 upstream.

This patch fixes a OOPs originally introduced by:

commit bb048357dad6d604520c91586334c9c230366a14
Author: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>
Date: Thu Sep 5 14:54:04 2013 -0700

iscsi-target: Add sk->sk_state_change to cleanup after TCP failure

which would trigger a NULL pointer dereference when a TCP connection was closed asynchronously via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but only when the initial PDU processing in iscsi_target_do_login() from iscsi_np process context was blocked waiting for backend I/O to complete.

To address this issue, this patch makes the following changes.

First, it introduces some common helper functions used for checking socket closing state, checking login_flags, and atomically checking socket closing state + setting login_flags.

Second, it introduces a LOGIN_FLAGS_INITIAL_PDU bit to know when a TCP connection has dropped via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but the initial PDU processing within iscsi_target_do_login() in iscsi_np context is still running. For this case, it sets LOGIN_FLAGS_CLOSED, but doesn't invoke schedule_delayed_work().

The original NULL pointer dereference case reported by MNC is now handled by iscsi_target_do_login() doing a iscsi_target_sk_check_close() before transitioning to FFP to determine when the socket has already closed, or iscsi_target_start_negotiation() if the login needs to exchange more PDUs (eg: iscsi_target_do_login returned 0) but the socket has closed. For both of these cases, the cleanup up of remaining connection resources will occur in iscsi_target_start_negotiation() from iscsi_np process context once the failure is detected.

Finally, to handle to case where iscsi_target_sk_state_change() is called after the initial PDU procesing is complete, it now invokes conn->login_work -> iscsi_target_do_login_rx() to perform cleanup once existing iscsi_target_sk_check_close() checks detect connection failure. For this case, the cleanup of remaining connection resources will occur in iscsi_target_do_login_rx() from delayed workqueue process context once the failure is detected.

PATCH 16/58 iscsi-target: Fix delayed logout processing greater than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>

commit 105fa2f44e504c830697b0c794822112d79808dc upstream.

This patch fixes a BUG() in iscsit_close_session() that could be triggered when iscsit_logout_post_handler() execution from within tx thread context was not run for more than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP (15 seconds), and the TCP connection didn't already close before then forcing tx thread context to automatically exit.

This would manifest itself during explicit logout as:

[33206.974254] 1 connection(s) still exist for iSCSI session to iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:3f5523242179
[33206.980184] INFO: NMI handler (kgdb_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 2100.772 msecs
[33209.078643] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[33209.078646] kernel BUG at drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c:4346!

Normally when explicit logout attempt fails, the tx thread context exits and iscsit_close_connection() from rx thread context does the extra cleanup once it detects conn->conn_logout_remove has not been cleared by the logout type specific post handlers.

To address this special case, if the logout post handler in tx thread context detects conn->tx_thread_active has already been cleared, simply return and exit in order for existing iscsit_close_connection() logic from rx thread context do failed logout cleanup.

PATCH 17/58 iser-target: Avoid isert_conn->cm_id dereference in isert_login_recv_done

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <[email protected]>

commit fce50a2fa4e9c6e103915c351b6d4a98661341d6 upstream.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference in isert_login_recv_done() of isert_conn->cm_id due to isert_cma_handler() -> isert_connect_error() resetting isert_conn->cm_id = NULL during a failed login attempt.

As per Sagi, we will always see the completion of all recv wrs posted on the qp (given that we assigned a ->done handler), this is a FLUSH error completion, we just don't get to verify that because we deref NULL before.

The issue here, was the assumption that dereferencing the connection cm_id is always safe, which is not true since:

iser-target: Fix possible deadlock in RDMA_CM connection error

As I see it, we have a direct reference to the isert_device from isert_conn which is the one-liner fix that we actually need like we do in isert_rdma_read_done() and isert_rdma_write_done().

PATCH 18/58 mm, mprotect: flush TLB if potentially racing with a parallel reclaim leaving stale TLB entries

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mel Gorman <[email protected]>

commit 3ea277194daaeaa84ce75180ec7c7a2075027a68 upstream.

Stable note for 4.4: The upstream patch patches madvise(MADV_FREE) but 4.4
does not have support for that feature. The changelog is left as-is but the hunk related to madvise is omitted from the backport.

Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held.

He described the race as follows:

        CPU0                            CPU1
        ----                            ----
                                        user accesses memory using RW PTE
                                        [PTE now cached in TLB]
        try_to_unmap_one()
        ==> ptep_get_and_clear()
        ==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
                                        mprotect(addr, PROT_READ)
                                        ==> change_pte_range()
                                        ==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ]

                                        user writes using cached RW PTE
        ...

        try_to_unmap_flush()

The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such as munmap, mremap and madvise.

For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an mprotect that limits access still allows access. For munmap, it's potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB. However, it's theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes.

Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to corruption. In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that are guarded by this patch. Other users such as gup as a race with reclaim looks just at PTEs. huge page variants should be ok as they don't race with reclaim. mincore only looks at PTEs. userfault also should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs triggering a fault.

Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13 merge window as expected. His ack is dropped from this version and there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his ack.

In this context, the primary concern is a race with clearing and checking PTEs at the location protected by a single PTL lock. While the flag in question is a per-mm flag, the ordering only matters when a race can potentially occur.

PATCH 19/58 media: lirc: LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION should return microseconds

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Sean Young <[email protected]>

commit 9f5039ba440e499d85c29b1ddbc3cbc9dc90e44b upstream.

Since commit e8f4818895b3 ("[media] lirc: advertise LIRC_CAN_GET_REC_RESOLUTION and improve") lircd uses the ioctl LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION to determine the shortest pulse or space that the hardware can detect. This breaks decoding in lirc because lircd expects the answer in microseconds, but nanoseconds is returned.

PATCH 25/58 ipv6: avoid overflow of offset in ip6_find_1stfragopt

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sabrina Dubroca <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 6399f1fae4ec29fab5ec76070435555e256ca3a6 ]

In some cases, offset can overflow and can cause an infinite loop in ip6_find_1stfragopt(). Make it unsigned int to prevent the overflow, and cap it at IPV6_MAXPLEN, since packets larger than that should be invalid.

This problem has been here since before the beginning of git history.

PATCH 26/58 ipv4: initialize fib_trie prior to register_netdev_notifier call.

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mahesh Bandewar <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 8799a221f5944a7d74516ecf46d58c28ec1d1f75 ]

Net stack initialization currently initializes fib-trie after the first call to netdevice_notifier() call. In fact fib_trie initialization needs to happen before first rtnl_register(). It does not cause any problem since there are no devices UP at this moment, but trying to bring 'lo' UP at initialization would make this assumption wrong and exposes the issue.

PATCH 27/58 rtnetlink: allocate more memory for dev_set_mac_address()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: WANG Cong <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 153711f9421be5dbc973dc57a4109dc9d54c89b1 ]

virtnet_set_mac_address() interprets mac address as struct sockaddr, but upper layer only allocates dev->addr_len which is ETH_ALEN + sizeof(sa_family_t) in this case.

We lack a unified definition for mac address, so just fix the upper layer, this also allows drivers to interpret it to struct sockaddr freely.

Regression goes back to 4.9, so it's a good candidate for -stable. Though it's the decision of the maintainer.

PATCH 30/58 packet: fix use-after-free in prb_retire_rx_blk_timer_expired()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: WANG Cong <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit c800aaf8d869f2b9b47b10c5c312fe19f0a94042 ]

There are multiple reports showing we have a use-after-free in the timer prb_retire_rx_blk_timer_expired(), where we use struct tpacket_kbdq_core::pkbdq, a pg_vec, after it gets freed by free_pg_vec().

The interesting part is it is not freed via packet_release() but via packet_setsockopt(), which means we are not closing the socket. Looking into the big and fat function packet_set_ring(), this could happen if we satisfy the following conditions:

1. closing == 0, not on packet_release() path
2. req->tp_block_nr == 0, we don't allocate a new pg_vec
3. rx_ring->pg_vec is already set as V3, which means we already called packet_set_ring() wtih req->tp_block_nr > 0 previously
4. req->tp_frame_nr == 0, pass sanity check
5. po->mapped == 0, never called mmap()

In this scenario we are clearing the old rx_ring->pg_vec, so we need to free this pg_vec, but we don't stop the timer on this path because of closing==0.

The timer has to be stopped as long as we need to free pg_vec, therefore the check on closing!=0 is wrong, we should check pg_vec!=NULL instead.

Thanks to liujian for testing different fixes.

PATCH 31/58 ipv6: Dont increase IPSTATS_MIB_FRAGFAILS twice in ip6_fragment()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stefano Brivio <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit afce615aaabfbaad02550e75c0bec106dafa1adf ]

RFC 2465 defines ipv6IfStatsOutFragFails as:

"The number of IPv6 datagrams that have been discarded
because they needed to be fragmented at this output interface but could not be."

The existing implementation, instead, would increase the counter twice in case we fail to allocate room for single fragments:
once for the fragment, once for the datagram.

This didn't look intentional though. In one of the two affected affected failure paths, the double increase was simply a result of a new 'goto fail' statement, introduced to avoid a skb leak. The other path appears to be affected since at least 2.6.12-rc2.

Fixes 1d325d217c7f ("ipv6: ip6_fragment: fix headroom tests and skb leak")

PATCH 32/58 net: ethernet: nb8800: Handle all 4 RGMII modes identically

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marc Gonzalez <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 4813497b537c6208c90d6cbecac5072d347de900 ]

Before commit bf8f6952a233 ("Add blurb about RGMII") it was unclear whose responsibility it was to insert the required clock skew, and in hindsight, some PHY drivers got it wrong. The solution forward is to introduce a new property, explicitly requiring skew from the node to which it is attached. In the interim, this driver will handle all 4 RGMII modes identically (no skew).

PATCH 33/58 dccp: fix a memleak that dccp_ipv6 doesnt put reqsk properly

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xin Long <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 0c2232b0a71db0ac1d22f751aa1ac0cadb950fd2 ]

In dccp_v6_conn_request, after reqsk gets alloced and hashed into ehash table, reqsk's refcnt is set 3. one is for req->rsk_timer, one is for hlist, and the other one is for current using.

The problem is when dccp_v6_conn_request returns and finishes using reqsk, it doesn't put reqsk. This will cause reqsk refcnt leaks and reqsk obj never gets freed.

Jianlin found this issue when running dccp_memleak.c in a loop, the system memory would run out.

dccp_memleak.c:
int s1 = socket(PF_INET6, 6, IPPROTO_IP);
bind(s1, &sa1, 0x20);
listen(s1, 0x9);
int s2 = socket(PF_INET6, 6, IPPROTO_IP);
connect(s2, &sa1, 0x20);
close(s1);
close(s2);

This patch is to put the reqsk before dccp_v6_conn_request returns, just as what tcp_conn_request does.

PATCH 37/58 sctp: fix the check for _sctp_walk_params and _sctp_walk_errors

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xin Long <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 6b84202c946cd3da3a8daa92c682510e9ed80321 ]

Commit b1f5bfc27a19 ("sctp: don't dereference ptr before leaving _sctp_walk_{params, errors}()") tried to fix the issue that it may overstep the chunk end for _sctp_walk_{params, errors} with 'chunk_end > offset(length) + sizeof(length)'.

But it introduced a side effect: When processing INIT, it verifies the chunks with 'param.v == chunk_end' after iterating all params by sctp_walk_params(). With the check 'chunk_end > offset(length)
+ sizeof(length)', it would return when the last param is not yet accessed. Because the last param usually is fwdtsn supported param whose size is 4 and 'chunk_end == offset(length) + sizeof(length)'

This is a badly issue even causing sctp couldn't process 4-shakes. Client would always get abort when connecting to server, due to the failure of INIT chunk verification on server.

The patch is to use 'chunk_end <= offset(length) + sizeof(length)' instead of 'chunk_end < offset(length) + sizeof(length)' for both _sctp_walk_params and _sctp_walk_errors.

Fixes b1f5bfc27a19 ("sctp: don't dereference ptr before leaving _sctp_walk_{params, errors}()")

PATCH 39/58 net: phy: Correctly process PHY_HALTED in phy_stop_machine()

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Florian Fainelli <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 7ad813f208533cebfcc32d3d7474dc1677d1b09a ]

Marc reported that he was not getting the PHY library adjust_link() callback function to run when calling phy_stop() + phy_disconnect() which does not indeed happen because we set the state machine to PHY_HALTED but we don't get to run it to process this state past that point.

Fix this with a synchronous call to phy_state_machine() in order to have the state machine actually act on PHY_HALTED, set the PHY device's link down, turn the network device's carrier off and finally call the adjust_link() function.

Fixes a390d1f379cf ("phylib: convert state_queue work to delayed_work")

PATCH 41/58 sparc64: Measure receiver forward progress to avoid send mondo timeout

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jane Chu <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 9d53caec84c7c5700e7c1ed744ea584fff55f9ac ]

A large sun4v SPARC system may have moments of intensive xcall activities, usually caused by unmapping many pages on many CPUs concurrently. This can flood receivers with CPU mondo interrupts for an extended period, causing some unlucky senders to hit send-mondo timeout. This problem gets worse as cpu count increases because sometimes mappings must be invalidated on all CPUs, and sometimes all CPUs may gang up on a single CPU.

But a busy system is not a broken system. In the above scenario, as long as the receiver is making forward progress processing mondo interrupts, the sender should continue to retry.

This patch implements the receiver's forward progress meter by introducing a per cpu counter 'cpu_mondo_counter[cpu]' where 'cpu' is in the range of 0..NR_CPUS. The receiver increments its counter as soon as it receives a mondo and the sender tracks the receiver's counter. If the receiver has stopped making forward progress when the retry limit is reached, the sender declares send-mondo-timeout and panic; otherwise, the receiver is allowed to keep making forward progress.

In addition, it's been observed that PCIe hotplug events generate Correctable Errors that are handled by hypervisor and then OS. Hypervisor 'borrows' a guest cpu strand briefly to provide the service. If the cpu strand is simultaneously the only cpu targeted by a mondo, it may not be available for the mondo in 20msec, causing SUN4V mondo timeout. It appears that 1 second is the agreed wait time between hypervisor and guest OS, this patch makes the adjustment.

PATCH 42/58 sparc64: Prevent perf from running during super critical sections

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rob Gardner <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit fc290a114fc6034b0f6a5a46e2fb7d54976cf87a ]

This fixes another cause of random segfaults and bus errors that may occur while running perf with the callgraph option.

Critical sections beginning with spin_lock_irqsave() raise the interrupt level to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14) and intentionally do not block performance counter interrupts, which arrive at PIL_NMI (15).

But some sections of code are "super critical" with respect to perf because the perf_callchain_user() path accesses user space and may cause TLB activity as well as faults as it unwinds the user stack.

One particular critical section occurs in switch_mm:

        spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->context.lock, flags);
        ...
        load_secondary_context(mm);
        tsb_context_switch(mm);
        ...
        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->context.lock, flags);

If a perf interrupt arrives in between load_secondary_context() and tsb_context_switch(), then perf_callchain_user() could execute with the context ID of one process, but with an active TSB for a different process. When the user stack is accessed, it is very likely to incur a TLB miss, since the h/w context ID has been changed. The TLB will then be reloaded with a translation from the TSB for one process, but using a context ID for another process. This exposes memory from one process to another, and since it is a mapping for stack memory, this usually causes the new process to crash quickly.

This super critical section needs more protection than is provided by spin_lock_irqsave() since perf interrupts must not be allowed in.

Since __tsb_context_switch already goes through the trouble of disabling interrupts completely, we fix this by moving the secondary context load down into this better protected region.

PATCH 43/58 wext: handle NULL extra data in iwe_stream_add_point better

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]>

commit 93be2b74279c15c2844684b1a027fdc71dd5d9bf upstream.

gcc-7 complains that wl3501_cs passes NULL into a function that then uses the argument as the input for memcpy:

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function 'wl3501_get_scan':
include/net/iw_handler.h:559:3: error: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Werror=nonnull]
memcpy(stream + point_len, extra, iwe->u.data.length);

This works fine here because iwe->u.data.length is guaranteed to be 0 and the memcpy doesn't actually have an effect.

Making the length check explicit avoids the warning and should have no other effect here.

Also check the pointer itself, since otherwise we get warnings elsewhere in the code.

PATCH 45/58 net: phy: dp83867: fix irq generation

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Grygorii Strashko <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 5ca7d1ca77dc23934504b95a96d2660d345f83c2 ]

For proper IRQ generation by DP83867 phy the INT/PWDN pin has to be programmed as an interrupt output instead of a Powerdown input in Configuration Register 3 (CFG3), Address 0x001E, bit 7 INT_OE = 1. The current driver doesn't do this and as result IRQs will not be generated by DP83867 phy even if they are properly configured in DT.

Hence, fix IRQ generation by properly configuring CFG3.INT_OE bit and ensure that Link Status Change (LINK_STATUS_CHNG_INT) and Auto-Negotiation Complete (AUTONEG_COMP_INT) interrupt are enabled. After this the DP83867 driver will work properly in interrupt enabled mode.

PATCH 46/58 tg3: Fix race condition in tg3_get_stats64().

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael Chan <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit f5992b72ebe0dde488fa8f706b887194020c66fc ]

The driver's ndo_get_stats64() method is not always called under RTNL. So it can race with driver close or ethtool reconfigurations. Fix the race condition by taking tp->lock spinlock in tg3_free_consistent() when freeing the tp->hw_stats memory block. tg3_get_stats64() is already taking tp->lock.

PATCH 48/58 phy state machine: failsafe leave invalid RUNNING state

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zefir Kurtisi <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 811a919135b980bac8009d042acdccf10dc1ef5e ]

While in RUNNING state, phy_state_machine() checks for link changes by comparing phydev->link before and after calling phy_read_status(). This works as long as it is guaranteed that phydev->link is never changed outside the phy_state_machine().

If in some setups this happens, it causes the state machine to miss a link loss and remain RUNNING despite phydev->link being 0.

This has been observed running a dsa setup with a process continuously polling the link states over ethtool each second (SNMPD RFC-1213 agent). Disconnecting the link on a phy followed by a ETHTOOL_GSET causes dsa_slave_get_settings() / dsa_slave_get_link_ksettings() to call phy_read_status() and with that modify the link status - and with that bricking the phy state machine.

This patch adds a fail-safe check while in RUNNING, which causes to move to CHANGELINK when the link is gone and we are still RUNNING.

PATCH 49/58 scsi: qla2xxx: Get mutex lock before checking optrom_state

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Milan P. Gandhi" <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit c7702b8c22712a06080e10f1d2dee1a133ec8809 ]

There is a race condition with qla2xxx optrom functions where one thread might modify optrom buffer, optrom_state while other thread is still reading from it.

In couple of crashes, it was found that we had successfully passed the following 'if' check where we confirm optrom_state to be QLA_SREADING. But by the time we acquired mutex lock to proceed with memory_read_from_buffer function, some other thread/process had already modified that option rom buffer and optrom_state from QLA_SREADING to QLA_SWAITING. Then we got ha->optrom_buffer 0x0 and crashed the system:

        if (ha->optrom_state != QLA_SREADING)
                return 0;

        mutex_lock(&ha->optrom_mutex);
        rval = memory_read_from_buffer(buf, count, &off, ha->optrom_buffer,
            ha->optrom_region_size);
        mutex_unlock(&ha->optrom_mutex);

With current optrom function we get following crash due to a race condition:

[ 1479.466679] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)

Below patch modifies qla2x00_sysfs_read_optrom, qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom functions to get the mutex_lock before checking ha->optrom_state to avoid similar crashes.

The patch was applied and tested and same crashes were no longer observed again.

PATCH 52/58 ARM: 8632/1: ftrace: fix syscall name matching

------------------

From: Rabin Vincent <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 270c8cf1cacc69cb8d99dea812f06067a45e4609 ]

ARM has a few system calls (most notably mmap) for which the names of the functions which are referenced in the syscall table do not match the names of the syscall tracepoints. As a consequence of this, these tracepoints are not made available. Implement arch_syscall_match_sym_name to fix this and allow tracing even these system calls.

The issue is caused by a lack of size check for the request size in ep_write_iter which should be fixed. It, however, points to another problem, that SLUB defines KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE too large because the its KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX is (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT) which means that the resulting page allocator request might be MAX_ORDER which is too large (see __alloc_pages_slowpath).

The same applies to the SLOB allocator which allows even larger sizes. Make sure that they are capped properly and never request more than MAX_ORDER order.

PATCH 54/58 lib/Kconfig.debug: fix frv build failure

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sudip Mukherjee <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit da0510c47519fe0999cffe316e1d370e29f952be ]

The build of frv allmodconfig was failing with the errors like:

/tmp/cc0JSPc3.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1839: Error: symbol .LSLT0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1842: Error: symbol .LASLTP0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1969: Error: symbol .LELTP0' is already defined /tmp/cc0JSPc3.s:1970: Error: symbol .LELT0' is already defined

Commit 866ced950bcd ("kbuild: Support split debug info v4") introduced splitting the debug info and keeping that in a separate file. Somehow, the frv-linux gcc did not like that and I am guessing that instead of splitting it started copying. The first report about this is at:

https://lists.01.org/pipermail/kbuild-all/2015-July/010527.html.

I will try and see if this can work with frv and if still fails I will open a bug report with gcc. But meanwhile this is the easiest option to solve build failure of frv.

PATCH 55/58 signal: protect SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE from unintentional clearing.

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jamie Iles <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 2d39b3cd34e6d323720d4c61bd714f5ae202c022 ]

Since commit 00cd5c37afd5 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we can now trace init processes. init is initially protected with SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can be implicitly cleared.

This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing. For example, running:

while true; do kill -STOP 1; done &
strace -p 1

and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being left in state TASK_STOPPED. Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring them.

Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

PATCH 56/58 mm: dont dereference struct page fields of invalid pages

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit f073bdc51771f5a5c7a8d1191bfc3ae371d44de7 ]

The VM_BUG_ON() check in move_freepages() checks whether the node id of a page matches the node id of its zone. However, it does this before having checked whether the struct page pointer refers to a valid struct page to begin with. This is guaranteed in most cases, but may not be the case if CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE=y.

So reorder the VM_BUG_ON() with the pfn_valid_within() check.

PATCH 57/58 ipv4: Should use consistent conditional judgement for ip fragment in __ip_append_data and ip_finish_output

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: zheng li <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 0a28cfd51e17f4f0a056bcf66bfbe492c3b99f38 ]

There is an inconsistent conditional judgement in __ip_append_data and ip_finish_output functions, the variable length in __ip_append_data just include the length of application's payload and udp header, don't include the length of ip header, but in ip_finish_output use (skb->len > ip_skb_dst_mtu(skb)) as judgement, and skb->len include the length of ip header.

That causes some particular application's udp payload whose length is between (MTU - IP Header) and MTU were fragmented by ip_fragment even though the rst->dev support UFO feature.

Add the length of ip header to length in __ip_append_data to keep consistent conditional judgement as ip_finish_output for ip fragment.

Odd that this also doesn't crash on 3.18 right now, as it has the same offending patch. I've queued up the fix now, thanks.

Reverting the offending patch fixes the problem. Reverting the same patch in v4.9.y fixes the problem there as well.

I did a wild guess and found that applying

7b9a88a390da net: phy: Fix PHY unbind crash

instead of reverting the offending patch fixes the problem in both v4.4.y and v4.9.y.
