2013-12-04netfilter: nf_conntrack: use RCU safe kfree for conntrack extensionsMichal Kubecek
commit c13a84a830a208fb3443628773c8ca0557773cc7 upstream. Commit 68b80f11 (netfilter: nf_nat: fix RCU races) introduced RCU protection for freeing extension data when reallocation moves them to a new location. We need the same protection when freeing them in nf_ct_ext_free() in order to prevent a use-after-free by other threads referencing a NAT extension data via bysource list.

2013-12-04ACPI / hotplug: Fix conflicted PCI bridge notify handlersToshi Kani
commit ca499fc87ed945094d952da0eb7eea7dbeb1feec upstream. The PCI host bridge scan handler installs its own notify handler, handle_hotplug_event_root(), by itself. Nevertheless, the ACPI hotplug framework also installs the common notify handler, acpi_hotplug_notify_cb(), for PCI root bridges. This causes acpi_hotplug_notify_cb() to call _OST method with unsupported error as hotplug.enabled is not set. To address this issue, introduce hotplug.ignore flag, which indicates that the scan handler installs its own notify handler by itself. The ACPI hotplug framework does not install the common notify handler when this flag is set.

2013-12-04audit: fix mq_open and mq_unlink to add the MQ root as a hidden parent ↵Jeff Layton
audit_names record commit 79f6530cb59e2a0af6953742a33cc29e98ca631c upstream. The old audit PATH records for mq_open looked like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=1 name=(null) inode=6777 dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=26732 dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 ...with the audit related changes that went into 3.7, they now look like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=2 name=(null) inode=66655 dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=1 name=(null) inode=6926 dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=0 name="test_mq" Both of these look wrong to me. As Steve Grubb pointed out: "What we need is 1 PATH record that identifies the MQ. The other PATH records probably should not be there." Fix it to record the mq root as a parent, and flag it such that it should be hidden from view when the names are logged, since the root of the mq filesystem isn't terribly interesting. With this change, we get a single PATH record that looks more like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1368021604.836:484): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=16914 dev=00:0c mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s0 In order to do this, a new audit_inode_parent_hidden() function is added. If we do it this way, then we avoid having the existing callers of audit_inode needing to do any sort of flag conversion if auditing is inactive.

2013-12-04mtd: map: fixed bug in 64-bit systemsWang Haitao
commit a4d62babf988fe5dfde24437fa135ef147bc7aa0 upstream. Hardware: CPU: XLP832,the 64-bit OS NOR Flash:S29GL128S 128M Software: Kernel:2.6.32.41 Filesystem:JFFS2 When writing files, errors appear: Write len 182 but return retlen 180 Write of 182 bytes at 0x072c815c failed. returned -5, retlen 180 Write len 186 but return retlen 184 Write of 186 bytes at 0x072caff4 failed. returned -5, retlen 184 These errors exist only in 64-bit systems,not in 32-bit systems. After analysis, we found that the left shift operation is wrong in map_word_load_partial. For instance: unsigned char buf[3] ={0x9e,0x3a,0xea}; map_bankwidth(map) is 4; for (i=0; i < 3; i++) { int bitpos; bitpos = (map_bankwidth(map)-1-i)*8; orig.x[0] &= ~(0xff << bitpos); orig.x[0] |= buf[i] << bitpos; } The value of orig.x[0] is expected to be 0x9e3aeaff, but in this situation(64-bit System) we'll get the wrong value of 0xffffffff9e3aeaff due to the 64-bit sign extension: buf[i] is defined as "unsigned char" and the left-shift operation will convert it to the type of "signed int", so when left-shift buf[i] by 24 bits, the final result will get the wrong value: 0xffffffff9e3aeaff. If the left-shift bits are less than 24, then sign extension will not occur. Whereas the bankwidth of the nor flash we used is 4, therefore this BUG emerges.

2013-12-04ipc, msg: forbid negative values for "msg{max,mnb,mni}"Mathias Krause
commit 9bf76ca325d5e9208eb343f7bd4cc666f703ed30 upstream. Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative. Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t. In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use INT_MAX instead.

2013-12-04ipc, msg: fix message length check for negative valuesMathias Krause
commit 4e9b45a19241354daec281d7a785739829b52359 upstream. On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated to an int when passed to load_msg(). So a long might very well contain a positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative. That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction. 2/ The copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB. That almost instantly results in a system crash or reset. ,-[ Reproducer (needs to be run as root) ]-- | #include <sys/stat.h> | #include <sys/msg.h> | #include <unistd.h> | #include <fcntl.h> | | int main(void) { | long msg = 1; | int fd; | | fd = open("/proc/sys/kernel/msgmax", O_WRONLY); | write(fd, "-1", 2); | close(fd); | | msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT); | | return 0; | } '--- Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently using size_t for the message length. This way the size checks in do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out. Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e. signed vs. unsigned checks. It should never become negative under normal circumstances, though. Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should be prevented. As that might break existing userland, it will be handled in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without reintroducing the above described bug. Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug early -- e.g. checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the usercopy feature of the PaX patch does. Or, for that matter, detect the long vs. int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin of the very same patch does.

2013-11-29dmi: add support for exact DMI matches in addition to substring matchingJani Nikula
commit 5017b2851373ee15c7035151853bb1448800cae2 upstream. dmi_match() considers a substring match to be a successful match. This is not always sufficient to distinguish between DMI data for different systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition to the substring matching using strstr(). The specific use case in the i915 driver is to allow us to use an exact match for D510MO, without also incorrectly matching D510MOV: { .ident = "Intel D510MO", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"), DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"), }, } Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Cc: <annndddrr@gmail.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Cornel Panceac <cpanceac@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-11-29ALSA: compress: fix drain calls blocking other compress functions (v6)Vinod Koul
commit f44f2a5417b2968a8724b352cc0b2545a6bcb1f4 upstream. The drain and drain_notify callback were blocked by low level driver until the draining was complete. Due to this being invoked with big fat mutex held, others ops like reading timestamp, calling pause, drop were blocked. So to fix this we add a new snd_compr_drain_notify() API. This would be required to be invoked by low level driver when drain or partial drain has been completed by the DSP. Thus we make the drain and partial_drain callback as non blocking and driver returns immediately after notifying DSP. The waiting is done while releasing the lock so that other ops can go ahead.

2013-11-29exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect testsKees Cook
commit d049f74f2dbe71354d43d393ac3a188947811348 upstream. The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean. Most users of the function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0). The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a protected state. Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two places fixed in this patch. Wrong logic: if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ } or if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ } Correct logic: if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ } or if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ } Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to that user. (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.) The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(), which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

commit ea8117478918a4734586d35ff530721b682425be upstream. Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop") regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule interrupts. The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86: default polling, generic: default !polling). Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit usage). Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will end up being slightly different.

When migrating a runnable task, we use the CPU stopper on the source CPU to ensure that the task to be moved is not currently running. Before this patch, all forced migrations (up, offload, idle pull) use the stopper for every migration. Using the CPU stopper is mandatory only when a task is currently running on a CPU. Otherwise tasks can be moved by locking the source and destination run queues. This patch checks to see if the task to be moved are currently running.

2013-11-20ipv6: reset dst.expires value when clearing expire flagHannes Frederic Sowa
[ Upstream commit 01ba16d6ec85a1ec4669c75513a76b61ec53ee50 ] On receiving a packet too big icmp error we update the expire value by calling rt6_update_expires. This function uses dst_set_expires which is implemented that it can only reduce the expiration value of the dst entry. If we insert new routing non-expiry information into the ipv6 fib where we already have a matching rt6_info we only clear the RTF_EXPIRES flag in rt6i_flags and leave the dst.expires value as is. When new mtu information arrives for that cached dst_entry we again call dst_set_expires. This time it won't update the dst.expire value because we left the dst.expire value intact from the last update. So dst_set_expires won't touch dst.expires. Fix this by resetting dst.expires when clearing the RTF_EXPIRE flag. dst_set_expires checks for a zero expiration and updates the dst.expires. In the past this (not updating dst.expires) was necessary because dst.expire was placed in a union with the dst_entry *from reference and rt6_clean_expires did assign NULL to it. This split happend in ecd9883724b78cc72ed92c98bcb1a46c764fff21 ("ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from"). Reported-by: Steinar H.

commit bc5bd37ce48c66e9192ad2e7231e9678880f6f8e upstream. Pavel Roskin reported that DRM_IOCTL_MODE_GETCONNECTOR was overwritting the 4 bytes beyond the end of its structure with a 32-bit userspace running on a 64-bit kernel. This is due to the padding gcc inserts as the drm_mode_get_connector struct includes a u64 and its size is not a natural multiple of u64s. 64-bit kernel: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=80, alignof=8 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 32-bit userspace: sizeof(drm_mode_get_connector)=76, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_get_encoder)=20, alignof=4 sizeof(drm_mode_modeinfo)=68, alignof=4 Fortuituously we can insert explicit padding to the tail of our structures without breaking ABI.

commit 32c37fc30c52508711ea6a108cfd5855b8a07176 upstream. Some USB drive enclosures do not correctly report an overflow condition if they hold a drive with a capacity over 2TB and are confronted with a READ_CAPACITY_10. They answer with their capacity modulo 2TB. The generic layer cannot cope with that. It must be told to use READ_CAPACITY_16 from the beginning.

2013-11-04ipv6: always prefer rt6i_gateway if presentJulian Anastasov
[ Upstream commit 96dc809514fb2328605198a0602b67554d8cce7b ] In v3.9 6fd6ce2056de2709 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in ip6_finish_output2()." changed the behaviour of ip6_finish_output2() such that the recently introduced rt6_nexthop() is used instead of an assigned neighbor. As rt6_nexthop() prefers rt6i_gateway only for gatewayed routes this causes a problem for users like IPVS, xt_TEE and RAW(hdrincl) if they want to use different address for routing compared to the destination address. Another case is when redirect can create RTF_DYNAMIC route without RTF_GATEWAY flag, we ignore the rt6i_gateway in rt6_nexthop(). Fix the above problems by considering the rt6i_gateway if present, so that traffic routed to address on local subnet is not wrongly diverted to the destination address.

2013-11-04inet: fix possible memory corruption with UDP_CORK and UFOHannes Frederic Sowa
[ This is a simplified -stable version of a set of upstream commits. ] This is a replacement patch only for stable which does fix the problems handled by the following two commits in -net: "ip_output: do skb ufo init for peeked non ufo skb as well" (e93b7d748be887cd7639b113ba7d7ef792a7efb9) "ip6_output: do skb ufo init for peeked non ufo skb as well" (c547dbf55d5f8cf615ccc0e7265e98db27d3fb8b) Three frames are written on a corked udp socket for which the output netdevice has UFO enabled. If the first and third frame are smaller than the mtu and the second one is bigger, we enqueue the second frame with skb_append_datato_frags without initializing the gso fields. This leads to the third frame appended regulary and thus constructing an invalid skb. This fixes the problem by always using skb_append_datato_frags as soon as the first frag got enqueued to the skb without marking the packet as SKB_GSO_UDP. The problem with only two frames for ipv6 was fixed by "ipv6: udp packets following an UFO enqueued packet need also be handled by UFO" (2811ebac2521ceac84f2bdae402455baa6a7fb47).

2013-11-04tcp: TSO packets automatic sizingEric Dumazet
[ Upstream commits 6d36824e730f247b602c90e8715a792003e3c5a7, 02cf4ebd82ff0ac7254b88e466820a290ed8289a, and parts of 7eec4174ff29cd42f2acfae8112f51c228545d40 ] After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO packets. One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the buffering amount. This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so that we try to send one packet every ms. This field could be set by other transports. Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets makes sense to reach line rate. For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking. This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments. A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2). A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing. This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up. sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Van Jacobson <vanj@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 19872d20c890073c5207d9e02bb8f14d451a11eb upstream. udev has this nice feature of creating "dead" /dev/<node> device-nodes if it finds a devnode:<node> modalias. Once the node is accessed, the kernel automatically loads the module that provides the node. However, this requires udev to know the major:minor code to use for the node. This feature was introduced by: commit 578454ff7eab61d13a26b568f99a89a2c9edc881 Author: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Date: Thu May 20 18:07:20 2010 +0200 driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loading However, uhid uses dynamic minor numbers so this doesn't actually work. We need to load uhid to know which minor it's going to use. Hence, allocate a static minor (just like uinput does) and we're good to go.

2013-10-13HID: fix data access in implement()Jiri Kosina
commit 27ce405039bfe6d3f4143415c638f56a3df77dca upstream. implement() is setting bytes in LE data stream. In case the data is not aligned to 64bits, it reads past the allocated buffer. It doesn't really change any value there (it's properly bitmasked), but in case that this read past the boundary hits a page boundary, pagefault happens when accessing 64bits of 'x' in implement(), and kernel oopses. This happens much more often when numbered reports are in use, as the initial 8bit skip in the buffer makes the whole process work on values which are not aligned to 64bits. This problem dates back to attempts in 2005 and 2006 to make implement() and extract() as generic as possible, and even back then the problem was realized by Adam Kroperlin, but falsely assumed to be impossible to cause any harm: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg47690.html I have made several attempts at fixing it "on the spot" directly in implement(), but the results were horrible; the special casing for processing last 64bit chunk and switching to different math makes it unreadable mess. I therefore took a path to allocate a few bytes more which will never make it into final report, but are there as a cushion for all the 64bit math operations happening in implement() and extract(). All callers of hid_output_report() are converted at the same time to allocate the buffer by newly introduced hid_alloc_report_buf() helper. Bruno noticed that the whole raw_size test can be dropped as well, as hid_alloc_report_buf() makes sure that the buffer is always of a proper size.
