As found by gcc-4.8, the QUEUE_SYSFS_BIT_FNS macro creates functions
that use a value generated by queue_var_store independent of whether
that value was set or not.
block/blk-sysfs.c: In function 'queue_store_nonrot':
block/blk-sysfs.c:244:385: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
Unlike most other such warnings, this one is not a false positive,
writing any non-number string into the sysfs files indeed has
an undefined result, rather than returning an error.
rfc4543(gcm(*)) code for GMAC assumes that assoc scatterlist always contains
only one segment and only makes use of this first segment. However ipsec passes
assoc with three segments when using 'extended sequence number' thus in this
case rfc4543(gcm(*)) fails to function correctly. Patch fixes this issue.

In UP and non-preempt respectively, the spinlocks and preemption
disable/enable points are stubbed out entirely, because there is no
regular code that can ever hit the kind of concurrency they are meant to
protect against.
However, while there is no regular code that can cause scheduling, we
_do_ end up having some exceptional (literally!) code that can do so,
and that we need to make sure does not ever get moved into the critical
region by the compiler.
In particular, get_user() and put_user() is generally implemented as
inline asm statements (even if the inline asm may then make a call
instruction to call out-of-line), and can obviously cause a page fault
and IO as a result. If that inline asm has been scheduled into the
middle of a preemption-safe (or spinlock-protected) code region, we
obviously lose.
Now, admittedly this is *very* unlikely to actually ever happen, and
we've not seen examples of actual bugs related to this. But partly
exactly because it's so hard to trigger and the resulting bug is so
subtle, we should be extra careful to get this right.
So make sure that even when preemption is disabled, and we don't have to
generate any actual *code* to explicitly tell the system that we are in
a preemption-disabled region, we need to at least tell the compiler not
to move things around the critical region.
This patch grew out of the same discussion that caused commits 79e5f05edcbf ("ARC: Add implicit compiler barrier to raw_local_irq*
functions") and 3e2e0d2c222b ("tile: comment assumption about
__insn_mtspr for <asm/irqflags.h>") to come about.
Note for stable: use discretion when/if applying this. As mentioned,
this bug may never have actually bitten anybody, and gcc may never have
done the required code motion for it to possibly ever trigger in
practice.

The UBIFS space fixup is a useful feature which allows to fixup the "broken"
flash space at the time of the first mount. The "broken" space is usually the
result of using a "dumb" industrial flasher which is not able to skip empty
NAND pages and just writes all 0xFFs to the empty space, which has grave
side-effects for UBIFS when UBIFS trise to write useful data to those empty
pages.
The fix-up feature works roughly like this:
1. mkfs.ubifs sets the fixup flag in UBIFS superblock when creating the image
(see -F option)
2. when the file-system is mounted for the first time, UBIFS notices the fixup
flag and re-writes the entire media atomically, which may take really a lot
of time.
3. UBIFS clears the fixup flag in the superblock.
This works fine when the file system is mounted R/W for the very first time.
But it did not really work in the case when we first mount the file-system R/O,
and then re-mount R/W. The reason was that we started the fixup procedure too
late, which we cannot really do because we have to fixup the space before it
starts being used.

commit 35d48903e97819 (bonding: fix rx_handler locking) added a race
in bonding driver, reported by Steven Rostedt who did a very good
diagnosis :
<quoting Steven>
I'm currently debugging a crash in an old 3.0-rt kernel that one of our
customers is seeing. The bug happens with a stress test that loads and
unloads the bonding module in a loop (I don't know all the details as
I'm not the one that is directly interacting with the customer). But the
bug looks to be something that may still be present and possibly present
in mainline too. It will just be much harder to trigger it in mainline.
In -rt, interrupts are threads, and can schedule in and out just like
any other thread. Note, mainline now supports interrupt threads so this
may be easily reproducible in mainline as well. I don't have the ability
to tell the customer to try mainline or other kernels, so my hands are
somewhat tied to what I can do.
But according to a core dump, I tracked down that the eth irq thread
crashed in bond_handle_frame() here:
slave = bond_slave_get_rcu(skb->dev);
bond = slave->bond; <--- BUG
the slave returned was NULL and accessing slave->bond caused a NULL
pointer dereference.
Which is basically:
dev->rx_handler = NULL;
dev->rx_handler_data = NULL;
And looking at __netif_receive_skb() we have:
rx_handler = rcu_dereference(skb->dev->rx_handler);
if (rx_handler) {
if (pt_prev) {
ret = deliver_skb(skb, pt_prev, orig_dev);
pt_prev = NULL;
}
switch (rx_handler(&skb)) {
My question to all of you is, what stops this interrupt from happening
while the bonding module is unloading? What happens if the interrupt
triggers and we have this:
What protection am I missing in the bond release handler that would
prevent the above from happening?
</quoting Steven>
We can fix bug this in two ways. First is adding a test in
bond_handle_frame() and others to check if rx_handler_data is NULL.
A second way is adding a synchronize_net() in
netdev_rx_handler_unregister() to make sure that a rcu protected reader
has the guarantee to see a non NULL rx_handler_data.
The second way is better as it avoids an extra test in fast path.

As reported by Jan, and others over the past few years, there is a
race condition caused by unix_release setting the sock->sk pointer
to NULL before properly marking the socket as dead/orphaned. This
can cause a problem with the LSM hook security_unix_may_send() if
there is another socket attempting to write to this partially
released socket in between when sock->sk is set to NULL and it is
marked as dead/orphaned. This patch fixes this by only setting
sock->sk to NULL after the socket has been marked as dead; I also
take the opportunity to make unix_release_sock() a void function
as it only ever returned 0/success.
Dave, I think this one should go on the -stable pile.

A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (> 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow. This was detected by PaX security patchset:
Some firmware exhibits a bug where the same VariableName and
VendorGuid values are returned on multiple invocations of
GetNextVariableName(). See,
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47631
As a consequence of such a bug, Andre reports hitting the following
WARN_ON() in the sysfs code after updating the BIOS on his, "Gigabyte
Technology Co., Ltd. To be filled by O.E.M./Z77X-UD3H, BIOS F19e
11/21/2012)" machine,
There's not much we can do to work around and keep traversing the
variable list once we hit this firmware bug. Our only solution is to
terminate the loop because, as Lingzhu reports, some machines get
stuck when they encounter duplicate names,
> I had an IBM System x3100 M4 and x3850 X5 on which kernel would
> get stuck in infinite loop creating duplicate sysfs files because,

> period > 2).
Also disable the workqueue, as efivar_update_sysfs_entries() uses
GetNextVariableName() to figure out which variables have been created
since the last iteration. That algorithm isn't going to work if
GetNextVariableName() returns duplicates. Note that we don't disable
EFI variable creation completely on the affected machines, it's just
that any pstore dump-* files won't appear in sysfs until the next
boot.
[Backported for 3.0-stable. Removed code related to pstore
workqueue but pulled in helper function variable_is_present
from a93bc0c; Moved the definition of __efivars to the top
for being referenced in variable_is_present.]
It's not wise to assume VariableNameSize represents the length of
VariableName, as not all firmware updates VariableNameSize in the same
way (some don't update it at all if EFI_SUCCESS is returned). There
are even implementations out there that update VariableNameSize with
values that are both larger than the string returned in VariableName
and smaller than the buffer passed to GetNextVariableName(), which
resulted in the following bug report from Michael Schroeder,
> On HP z220 system (firmware version 1.54), some EFI variables are
> incorrectly named :
>
> ls -d /sys/firmware/efi/vars/*8be4d* | grep -v -- -8be returns

The issue here is that because we blindly use VariableNameSize without
verifying its value, we can potentially read garbage values from the
buffer containing VariableName if VariableNameSize is larger than the
length of VariableName.
Since VariableName is a string, we can calculate its size by searching
for the terminating NULL character.

This fixes a race where we may try to finish a page flip and decrement
the refcount even if our vblank_get failed and we ended up with a
spurious flip pending interrupt.
struct block_device lifecycle is defined by its inode (see fs/block_dev.c) -
block_device allocated first time we access /dev/loopXX and deallocated on
bdev_destroy_inode. When we create the device "losetup /dev/loopXX afile"
we want that block_device stay alive until we destroy the loop device
with "losetup -d".
But because we do not hold /dev/loopXX inode its counter goes 0, and
inode/bdev can be destroyed at any moment. Usually it happens at memory
pressure or when user drops inode cache (like in the test below). When later in
loop_clr_fd() we want to use bdev we have use-after-free error with following
stack:
[ Doing bdgrab/bput in loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd is safe, because every
time we call loop_set_fd() we check that loop_device->lo_state is
Lo_unbound and set it to Lo_bound If somebody will try to set_fd again
it will get EBUSY. And if we try to loop_clr_fd() on unbound loop
device we'll get ENXIO.
loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd (and any other loop ioctl) is called under
loop_device->lo_ctl_mutex. ]
On hosts without the XSAVE support unprivileged local user can trigger
oops similar to the one below by setting X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit in guest
cr4 register using KVM_SET_SREGS ioctl and later issuing KVM_RUN
ioctl.
QEMU first retrieves the supported features via KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
and then sets them later. So guest's X86_FEATURE_XSAVE should be masked
out on hosts without X86_FEATURE_XSAVE, making kvm_set_cr4 with
X86_CR4_OSXSAVE fail. Userspaces that allow specifying guest cpuid with
X86_FEATURE_XSAVE even on hosts that do not support it, might be
susceptible to this attack from inside the guest as well.

When online_pages() is called to add new memory to an empty zone, it
rebuilds all zone lists by calling build_all_zonelists(). But there's a
bug which prevents the new zone to be added to other nodes' zone lists.
Here the node of the zone is put into N_HIGH_MEMORY state after calling
build_all_zonelists(), but build_all_zonelists() only adds zones from
nodes in N_HIGH_MEMORY state to the fallback zone lists.
build_all_zonelists()
So memory in the new zone will never be used by other nodes, and it may
cause strange behavor when system is under memory pressure. So put node
into N_HIGH_MEMORY state before calling build_all_zonelists().

kvm_set_irq() has an internal buffer of three irq routing entries, allowing
connecting a GSI to three IRQ chips or on MSI. However setup_routing_entry()
does not properly enforce this, allowing three irqchip routes followed by
an MSI route to overflow the buffer.
Fix by ensuring that an MSI entry is added to an empty list.
There're several reasons that the vectors need to be validated:
- Return error when caller provides vectors whose num is greater than UIO_MAXIOV.

If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then
irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading
to potential NULL pointer dereferences.
Fix by:
- ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called
- ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP
This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without

Introduced by commit bf118a34 "NFSv4: include bitmap in nfsv4 get
acl data", Dec 7, 2011.
Commit bf118a342f10dafe44b14451a1392c3254629a1f (NFSv4: include bitmap
in nfsv4 get acl data) introduces the 'acl_scratch' page for the case
where we may need to decode multi-page data. However it fails to take
into account the fact that the variable may be NULL (for the case where
we're not doing multi-page decode), and it also attaches it to the
encoding xdr_stream rather than the decoding one.
The immediate result is an Oops in nfs4_xdr_enc_getacl due to the
call to page_address() with a NULL page pointer.
The NFSv4 bitmap size is unbounded: a server can return an arbitrary
sized bitmap in an FATTR4_WORD0_ACL request. Replace using the
nfs4_fattr_bitmap_maxsz as a guess to the maximum bitmask returned by a server
with the inclusion of the bitmap (xdr length plus bitmasks) and the acl data
xdr length to the (cached) acl page data.
This is a general solution to commit e5012d1f "NFSv4.1: update
nfs4_fattr_bitmap_maxsz" and fixes hitting a BUG_ON in xdr_shrink_bufhead
when getting ACLs.
Fix a bug in decode_getacl that returned -EINVAL on ACLs > page when getxattr
was called with a NULL buffer, preventing ACL > PAGE_SIZE from being retrieved.
Prevent this by checking the irqchip mode before starting a timer. We
can't deny creating the PIT if the irqchips aren't set up yet as
current user land expects this order to work.

A user reported a problem where he was getting early ENOSPC with hundreds of

Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

For the s626 driver, there is a bug in the handling of asynchronous
commands on the AI subdevice when the stop source is `TRIG_NONE`. The
command should run continuously until cancelled, but the interrupt
handler stops the command running after the first scan.
The command set-up function `s626_ai_cmd()` contains this code:
switch (cmd->stop_src) {
case TRIG_COUNT:
/* data arrives as one packet */
devpriv->ai_sample_count = cmd->stop_arg;
devpriv->ai_continous = 0;
break;
case TRIG_NONE:
/* continous acquisition */
devpriv->ai_continous = 1;
devpriv->ai_sample_count = 0;
break;
}
The interrupt handler `s626_irq_handler()` contains this code:
if (!(devpriv->ai_continous))
devpriv->ai_sample_count--;
if (devpriv->ai_sample_count <= 0) {
devpriv->ai_cmd_running = 0;
/* ... */
}
So `devpriv->ai_sample_count` is only decremented for the `TRIG_COUNT`
case, but `devpriv->ai_cmd_running` is set to 0 (and the command
stopped) regardless.
Fix this in `s626_ai_cmd()` by setting `devpriv->ai_sample_count = 1`
for the `TRIG_NONE` case. The interrupt handler will not decrement it
so it will remain greater than 0 and the check for stopping the
acquisition will fail.

To avoid an explosion of request_module calls on a chain of abusive
scripts, fail maximum recursion with -ELOOP instead of -ENOEXEC. As soon
as maximum recursion depth is hit, the error will fail all the way back
up the chain, aborting immediately.
This also has the side-effect of stopping the user's shell from attempting
to reexecute the top-level file as a shell script. As seen in the
dash source:
The above logic was designed for running scripts automatically that lacked
the "#!" header, not to re-try failed recursion. On a legitimate -ENOEXEC,
things continue to behave as the shell expects.
Additionally, when tracking recursion, the binfmt handlers should not be
involved. The recursion being tracked is the depth of calls through
search_binary_handler(), so that function should be exclusively responsible
for tracking the depth.

The Clevo B7130 requires the CADL field to contain at least the ID of

on pressing brightness / display switching hotkeys will not trigger a

Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to
compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an
explicit "access_ok()" check before calling
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when
we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to
fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev().
This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements
should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact,
there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel,
and they both seem to get it wrong:
Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb()
also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through
aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to
be missing. Same situation for
security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov().
I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it,
and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat
counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where
copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so
the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat.
While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values.
And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error
handling.

This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated
blocks in ext4_split_extent. When the length of blocks we want to
allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a
wrong number. Let's see what happens in the following case when we
call ext4_split_extent().
map: [48, 72]
ex: [32, 64, u]
'ex' will be split into two parts:
ex1: [32, 47, u]
ex2: [48, 64, w]
'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But
the real length is 16. So it should be fixed.
Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks
when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents
is called.
We've had several reports of people attempting to mount Windows 8 shares
and getting failures with a return code of -EINVAL. The default sec=
mode changed recently to sec=ntlmssp. With that, we expect and parse a
SPNEGO blob from the server in the NEGOTIATE reply.
The current decode_negTokenInit function first parses all of the
mechTypes and then tries to parse the rest of the negTokenInit reply.
The parser however currently expects a mechListMIC or nothing to follow the
mechTypes, but Windows 8 puts a mechToken field there instead to carry
some info for the new NegoEx stuff.
In practice, we don't do anything with the fields after the mechTypes
anyway so I don't see any real benefit in continuing to parse them.
This patch just has the kernel ignore the fields after the mechTypes.
We'll probably need to reinstate some of this if we ever want to support
NegoEx.

EDID spreads some values across multiple bytes; bit-fiddling is needed
to retrieve these. The current code to parse "detailed timings" has a
cut&paste error that results in a vsync offset of at most 15 lines
instead of 63.
See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDID
and in the "EDID Detailed Timing Descriptor" see bytes 10+11 show why
that needs to be a left shift.
It is possible to wrap the counter used to allocate the buffer for
relocation copies. This could lead to heap writing overflows.

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace
calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done
with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()
for updates and not a synchronize_rcu().
Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the
hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched().
Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del().

Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
temp buffer to assign in the swap.
Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.
New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.
I've Cc'd stable, so this bug will not show up if someone backports
one of the changes that can trigger this bug.

Masks kernel address info-leak in object dumps with the %pK suffix,
so they cannot be used to target kernel memory corruption attacks if
the kptr_restrict sysctl is set.
Creation of individual mixer controls may fail, but that shouldn't cause
the entire mixer creation to fail. Even worse, if the mixer creation
fails, that will error out the entire device probing.
All the functions called by parse_audio_unit() should return -EINVAL if
they find descriptors that are unsupported or believed to be malformed,
so we can safely handle this error code as a non-fatal condition in
snd_usb_mixer_controls().
That fixes a long standing bug which is commonly worked around by
adding quirks which make the driver ignore entire interfaces. Some of
them might now be unnecessary.
