The issue occurs when eCryptfs is mounted with a cipher supported by
the crypto subsystem but not by eCryptfs. The mount succeeds and an
error does not occur until a write. This change checks for eCryptfs
cipher support at mount time.

When the eCryptfs mount options do not include '-o acl', but the lower
filesystem's mount options do include 'acl', the MS_POSIXACL flag is not
flipped on in the eCryptfs super block flags. This flag is what the VFS
checks in do_last() when deciding if the current umask should be applied
to a newly created inode's mode or not. When a default POSIX ACL mask is
set on a directory, the current umask is incorrectly applied to new
inodes created in the directory. This patch ignores the MS_POSIXACL flag
passed into ecryptfs_mount() and sets the flag on the eCryptfs super
block depending on the flag's presence on the lower super block.
Additionally, it is incorrect to allow a writeable eCryptfs mount on top
of a read-only lower mount. This missing check did not allow writes to
the read-only lower mount because permissions checks are still performed
on the lower filesystem's objects but it is best to simply not allow a
rw mount on top of ro mount. However, a ro eCryptfs mount on top of a rw
mount is valid and still allowed.

When creating an L2TPv3 Ethernet session, if register_netdev() should fail for
any reason (for example, automatic naming for "l2tpeth%d" interfaces hits the
32k-interface limit), the netdev is freed in the error path. However, the
l2tp_eth_sess structure's dev pointer is left uncleared, and this results in
l2tp_eth_delete() then attempting to unregister the same netdev later in the
session teardown. This results in an oops.
To avoid this, clear the session dev pointer in the error path.

Reading TCP stats when using TCP Illinois congestion control algorithm
can cause a divide by zero kernel oops.
The division by zero occur in tcp_illinois_info() at:
do_div(t, ca->cnt_rtt);
where ca->cnt_rtt can become zero (when rtt_reset is called)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register tcp_illinois:
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=illinois
2. Monitor internal TCP information via command "ss -i"
# watch -d ss -i
3. Establish new TCP conn to machine
Either it fails at the initial conn, or else it needs to wait
for a loss or a reset.
This is only related to reading stats. The function avg_delay() also
performs the same divide, but is guarded with a (ca->cnt_rtt > 0) at its
calling point in update_params(). Thus, simply fix tcp_illinois_info().
Function tcp_illinois_info() / get_info() is called without
socket lock. Thus, eliminate any race condition on ca->cnt_rtt
by using a local stack variable. Simply reuse info.tcpv_rttcnt,
as its already set to ca->cnt_rtt.
Function avg_delay() is not affected by this race condition, as
its called with the socket lock.

Driver anchors the tx urbs and defers the urb submission if
a transmit request comes when the interface is suspended.
Anchoring urb increments the urb reference count. These
deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor()
for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor()
unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same.
This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero
after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed.
Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly
balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also,
unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them
up.

On some suspend/resume operations involving wimax device, we have

Stéphane Marchesin tracked this corruption in netlink_update_listeners()

for the listeners structure as it may be used by other cpus using RCU

netlink_release() must set to NULL the listeners pointer when

wrapped around the end of log. The second part of the log buffer at

rather than the data buffer, and hence recovery was seeing garbage

was incorrectly read.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust context] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
The userspace cifs.idmap program generally works with the wbclient libs
to generate binary SIDs in userspace. That program defines the struct
that holds these values as having a max of 15 subauthorities. The kernel
idmapping code however limits that value to 5.
When the kernel copies those values around though, it doesn't sanity
check the num_subauths value handed back from userspace or from the
server. It's possible therefore for userspace to hand us back a bogus
num_subauths value (or one that's valid, but greater than 5) that could
cause the kernel to walk off the end of the cifs_sid->sub_auths array.
Fix this by defining a new routine for copying sids and using that in
all of the places that copy it. If we end up with a sid that's longer
than expected then this approach will just lop off the "extra" subauths,
but that's basically what the code does today already. Better approaches
might be to fix this code to reject SIDs with >5 subauths, or fix it
to handle the subauths array dynamically.
At the same time, change the kernel to check the length of the data
returned by userspace. If it's shorter than struct cifs_sid, reject it
and return -EIO. If that happens we'll end up with fields that are
basically uninitialized.
Long term, it might make sense to redefine cifs_sid using a flexarray at
the end, to allow for variable-length subauth lists, and teach the code
to handle the case where the subauths array being passed in from
userspace is shorter than 5 elements.
Note too, that I don't consider this a security issue since you'd need
a compromised cifs.idmap program. If you have that, you can do all sorts
of nefarious stuff. Still, this is probably reasonable for stable.

The sleeping code in iscsi_target_tx_thread() is susceptible to the classic
missed wakeup race:
- TX thread finishes handle_immediate_queue() and handle_response_queue(),
thinks both queues are empty.
- Another thread adds a queue entry and does wake_up_process(), which does
nothing because the TX thread is still awake.
- TX thread does schedule_timeout() and sleeps forever.
In practice this can kill an iSCSI connection if for example an initiator
does single-threaded writes and the target misses the wakeup window when
queueing an R2T; in this case the connection will be stuck until the
initiator loses patience and does some task management operation (or kills
the connection entirely).
Fix this by converting to wait_event_interruptible(), which does not
suffer from this sort of race.

The DNS resolver's use of the sunrpc cache involves a 'ttl' number
(relative) rather that a timeout (absolute). This confused me when
I wrote
commit c5b29f885afe890f953f7f23424045cdad31d3e4
"sunrpc: use seconds since boot in expiry cache"
and I managed to break it. The effect is that any TTL is interpreted
as 0, and nothing useful gets into the cache.
This patch removes the use of get_expiry() - which really expects an
expiry time - and uses get_uint() instead, treating the int correctly
as a ttl.
This fixes a regression that has been present since 2.6.37, causing

before we make that hypercall the kernel will IPI all of the

At least the worst offenders:
- SDVO specifies that the encoder should compute the ecc. Testing also
shows that we must not send the ecc field, so copy the dip_infoframe
struct to a temporay place and avoid the ecc field. This way the avi
infoframe is exactly 17 bytes long, which agrees with what the spec
mandates as a minimal storage capacity (with the ecc field it would
be 18 bytes).
- Only 17 when sending the avi infoframe. The SDVO spec explicitly
says that sending more data than what the device announces results
in undefined behaviour.
- Add __attribute__((packed)) to the avi and spd infoframes, for
otherwise they're wrongly aligned. Noticed because the avi infoframe
ended up being 18 bytes large instead of 17. We haven't noticed this
yet because we don't use the uint16_t fields yet (which are the only
ones that would be wrongly aligned).

The overlay on the i830M has a peculiar failure mode: It works the
first time around after boot-up, but consistenly hangs the second time
it's used.
Chris Wilson has dug out a nice errata:
"1.5.12 Clock Gating Disable for Display Register
Address Offset: 06200h–06203h
"Bit 3
Ovrunit Clock Gating Disable.
0 = Clock gating controlled by unit enabling logic
1 = Disable clock gating function
DevALM Errata ALM049: Overlay Clock Gating Must be Disabled: Overlay
& L2 Cache clock gating must be disabled in order to prevent device
hangs when turning off overlay.SW must turn off Ovrunit clock gating
(6200h) and L2 Cache clock gating (C8h)."
Now I've nowhere found that 0xc8 register and hence couldn't apply the
l2 cache workaround. But I've remembered that part of the magic that
the OVERLAY_ON/OFF commands are supposed to do is to rearrange cache
allocations so that the overlay scaler has some scratch space.
And while pondering how that could explain the hang the 2nd time we
enable the overlay, I've remembered that the old ums overlay code did
_not_ issue the OVERLAY_OFF cmd.
And indeed, disabling the OFF cmd results in the overlay working
flawlessly, so I guess we can workaround the lack of the above
workaround by simply never disabling the overlay engine once it's
enabled.
Note that we have the first part of the above w/a already implemented
in i830_init_clock_gating - leave that as-is to avoid surprises.
v2: Add a comment in the code.

Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK. The mask
is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that
certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application.
At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to
indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information
about the VFs belonging to the interface.
This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have
large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned
by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions.
Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with
the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will
not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel.
Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net
devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the
info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed
in via the new netlink attribute filter mask. If no filter
mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE.
With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink
attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible
in the future.

For more strict protection for wild disconnections, a refcount is

Close some races at disconnection of a USB audio device by adding the

The spots to put bandaids are:
- PCM prepare, hw_params and hw_free
- where the usb device is accessed for communication or get speed, in
mixer.c and others; the device speed is now cached in subs->speed
instead of accessing to chip->dev
The accesses in PCM open and close don't need the mutex protection
because these are already handled in the core PCM disconnection code.

because of possible mutex deadlocks. They'll be covered by the

The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the
32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the
HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially
it turned off the use of HLT.
This workaround was commented in the code as:
"disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations"
"This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA
wreckage. It should be safe to remove."
H. Peter Anvin additionally adds:
"To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of
flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to
run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind,
including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed
to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT
caused some of these systems to fail.
They were by far in the minority even back then."
Alan Cox further says:
"Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT
occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during
DMA tended to go astray.
Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520
fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of
use."

tpm_write calls tpm_transmit without checking the return value and
assigns the return value unconditionally to chip->pending_data, even if
it's an error value.
This causes three bugs.
So if we write to /dev/tpm0 with a tpm_param_size bigger than
TPM_BUFSIZE=0x1000 (e.g. 0x100a)
and a bufsize also bigger than TPM_BUFSIZE (e.g. 0x100a)
tpm_transmit returns -E2BIG which is assigned to chip->pending_data as
-7, but tpm_write returns that TPM_BUFSIZE bytes have been successfully
been written to the TPM, altough this is not true (bug #1).
As we did write more than than TPM_BUFSIZE bytes but tpm_write reports
that only TPM_BUFSIZE bytes have been written the vfs tries to write
the remaining bytes (in this case 10 bytes) to the tpm device driver via
tpm_write which then blocks at
/* cannot perform a write until the read has cleared
either via tpm_read or a user_read_timer timeout */
while (atomic_read(&chip->data_pending) != 0)
msleep(TPM_TIMEOUT);
for 60 seconds, since data_pending is -7 and nobody is able to
read it (since tpm_read luckily checks if data_pending is greater than
0) (#bug 2).
After that the remaining bytes are written to the TPM which are
interpreted by the tpm as a normal command. (bug #3)
So if the last bytes of the command stream happen to be a e.g.
tpm_force_clear this gets accidentally sent to the TPM.
This patch fixes all three bugs, by propagating the error code of
tpm_write and returning -E2BIG if the input buffer is too big,
since the response from the tpm for a truncated value is bogus anyway.
Moreover it returns -EBUSY to userspace if there is a response ready to be
read.

Existing code assumes that del_timer returns true for alive conntrack
entries. However, this is not true if reliable events are enabled.
In that case, del_timer may return true for entries that were
just inserted in the dying list. Note that packets / ctnetlink may
hold references to conntrack entries that were just inserted to such
list.
This patch fixes the issue by adding an independent timer for
event delivery. This increases the size of the ecache extension.
Still we can revisit this later and use variable size extensions
to allocate this area on demand.

The genalloc code uses the bitmap API from include/linux/bitmap.h and
lib/bitmap.c, which is based on long values. Both bitmap_set from
lib/bitmap.c and bitmap_set_ll, which is the lockless version from
genalloc.c, use BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK to set the first bits in a long in
the bitmap.
That one uses (1 << bits) - 1, 0b111, if you are setting the first three
bits. This means that the API counts from the least significant bits
(LSB from now on) to the MSB. The LSB in the first long is bit 0, then.
The same works for the lookup functions.
The genalloc code uses longs for the bitmap, as it should. In
include/linux/genalloc.h, struct gen_pool_chunk has unsigned long
bits[0] as its last member. When allocating the struct, genalloc should
reserve enough space for the bitmap. This should be a proper number of
longs that can fit the amount of bits in the bitmap.
However, genalloc allocates an integer number of bytes that fit the
amount of bits, but may not be an integer amount of longs. 9 bytes, for
example, could be allocated for 70 bits.
This is a problem in itself if the Least Significat Bit in a long is in
the byte with the largest address, which happens in Big Endian machines.
This means genalloc is not allocating the byte in which it will try to
set or check for a bit.
This may end up in memory corruption, where genalloc will try to set the
bits it has not allocated. In fact, genalloc may not set these bits
because it may find them already set, because they were not zeroed since
they were not allocated. And that's what causes a BUG when
gen_pool_destroy is called and check for any set bits.
What really happens is that genalloc uses kmalloc_node with __GFP_ZERO
on gen_pool_add_virt. With SLAB and SLUB, this means the whole slab
will be cleared, not only the requested bytes. Since struct
gen_pool_chunk has a size that is a multiple of 8, and slab sizes are
multiples of 8, we get lucky and allocate and clear the right amount of
bytes.
Hower, this is not the case with SLOB or with older code that did memset
after allocating instead of using __GFP_ZERO.
So, a simple module as this (running 3.6.0), will cause a crash when
rmmod'ed.

On s390 any write to a page (even from kernel itself) sets architecture
specific page dirty bit. Thus when a page is written to via buffered
write, HW dirty bit gets set and when we later map and unmap the page,
page_remove_rmap() finds the dirty bit and calls set_page_dirty().
Dirtying of a page which shouldn't be dirty can cause all sorts of
problems to filesystems. The bug we observed in practice is that
buffers from the page get freed, so when the page gets later marked as
dirty and writeback writes it, XFS crashes due to an assertion
BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)) in page_buffers() called from
xfs_count_page_state().
Similar problem can also happen when zero_user_segment() call from
xfs_vm_writepage() (or block_write_full_page() for that matter) set the
hardware dirty bit during writeback, later buffers get freed, and then
page unmapped.
Fix the issue by ignoring s390 HW dirty bit for page cache pages of
mappings with mapping_cap_account_dirty(). This is safe because for
such mappings when a page gets marked as writeable in PTE it is also
marked dirty in do_wp_page() or do_page_fault(). When the dirty bit is
cleared by clear_page_dirty_for_io(), the page gets writeprotected in
page_mkclean(). So pagecache page is writeable if and only if it is
dirty.
Thanks to Hugh Dickins for pointing out mapping has to have
mapping_cap_account_dirty() for things to work and proposing a cleaned
up variant of the patch.
The patch has survived about two hours of running fsx-linux on tmpfs
while heavily swapping and several days of running on out build machines
where the original problem was triggered.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: PF_FORKNOEXEC is cleared elsewhere] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
The command cancellation code doesn't check whether find_trb_seg()
couldn't find the segment that contains the TRB to be canceled. This
could cause a NULL pointer deference later in the function when next_trb
is called. It's unlikely to happen unless something is wrong with the
command ring pointers, so add some debugging in case it happens.
This patch should be backported to stable kernels as old as 3.0, that
contain the commit b63f4053cc8aa22a98e3f9a97845afe6c15d0a0d "xHCI:
handle command after aborting the command ring".

The driver set the usb-serial port pointers to NULL on errors in attach,
effectively preventing usb-serial core from decrementing the port ref
counters and releasing the port devices and associated data.
