USB: EHCI: declare hostpc register as zero-length array

2016-07-27T16:55:48+00:00

commit 7e8b3dfef16375dbfeb1f36a83eb9f27117c51fd upstream. The HOSTPC extension registers found in some EHCI implementations form a variable-length array, with one element for each port. Therefore the hostpc field in struct ehci_regs should be declared as a zero-length array, not a single-element array. This fixes a problem reported by UBSAN.

netfilter: x_tables: introduce and use xt_copy_counters_from_user

commit d7591f0c41ce3e67600a982bab6989ef0f07b3ce upstream The three variants use same copy&pasted code, condense this into a helper and use that. Make sure info.name is 0-terminated. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

netfilter: x_tables: check for bogus target offset

2016-06-24T17:15:30+00:00

commit ce683e5f9d045e5d67d1312a42b359cb2ab2a13c upstream. We're currently asserting that targetoff + targetsize <= nextoff. Extend it to also check that targetoff is >= sizeof(xt_entry). Since this is generic code, add an argument pointing to the start of the match/target, we can then derive the base structure size from the delta. We also need the e->elems pointer in a followup change to validate matches. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

netfilter: x_tables: add compat version of xt_check_entry_offsets

2016-06-24T17:15:30+00:00

commit fc1221b3a163d1386d1052184202d5dc50d302d1 upstream. 32bit rulesets have different layout and alignment requirements, so once more integrity checks get added to xt_check_entry_offsets it will reject well-formed 32bit rulesets.

netfilter: x_tables: add and use xt_check_entry_offsets

2016-06-24T17:15:30+00:00

commit 7d35812c3214afa5b37a675113555259cfd67b98 upstream. Currently arp/ip and ip6tables each implement a short helper to check that the target offset is large enough to hold one xt_entry_target struct and that t->u.target_size fits within the current rule. Unfortunately these checks are not sufficient. To avoid adding new tests to all of ip/ip6/arptables move the current checks into a helper, then extend this helper in followup patches.

pipe: limit the per-user amount of pages allocated in pipes

2016-06-24T17:15:30+00:00

commit 759c01142a5d0f364a462346168a56de28a80f52 upstream. On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to prevent this from happening. This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing pipes to work correctly though with less data at once. The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024) to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB = 1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use of pipes (eg: for splicing).

x86: LLVMLinux: Fix "incomplete type const struct x86cpu_device_id"

2016-05-11T09:20:59+00:00

commit c4586256f0c440bc2bdb29d2cbb915f0ca785d26 upstream. Similar to the fix in 40413dcb7b273bda681dca38e6ff0bbb3728ef11 MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, ...) expects the struct to be called struct x86cpu_device_id, and not struct x86_cpu_id which is what is used in the rest of the kernel code. Although gcc seems to ignore this error, clang fails without this define to fix the name. Code from drivers/thermal/x86_pkg_temp_thermal.c static const struct x86_cpu_id __initconst pkg_temp_thermal_ids[] = { ... }; MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, pkg_temp_thermal_ids); Error from clang: drivers/thermal/x86_pkg_temp_thermal.c:577:1: error: variable has incomplete type 'const struct x86cpu_device_id' MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(x86cpu, pkg_temp_thermal_ids); ^ include/linux/module.h:145:3: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE' MODULE_GENERIC_TABLE(type##_device, name) ^ include/linux/module.h:87:32: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_GENERIC_TABLE' extern const struct gtype##_id __mod_##gtype##_table \ ^ :143:1: note: expanded from here __mod_x86cpu_device_table ^ drivers/thermal/x86_pkg_temp_thermal.c:577:1: note: forward declaration of 'struct x86cpu_device_id' include/linux/module.h:145:3: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE' MODULE_GENERIC_TABLE(type##_device, name) ^ include/linux/module.h:87:21: note: expanded from macro 'MODULE_GENERIC_TABLE' extern const struct gtype##_id __mod_##gtype##_table \ ^ :141:1: note: expanded from here x86cpu_device_id ^ 1 error generated.

compiler-gcc: disable -ftracer for __noclone functions

2016-05-11T09:20:59+00:00

commit 95272c29378ee7dc15f43fa2758cb28a5913a06d upstream. -ftracer can duplicate asm blocks causing compilation to fail in noclone functions. For example, KVM declares a global variable in an asm like asm("2: ... \n .pushsection data \n .global vmx_return \n vmx_return: .long 2b"); and -ftracer causes a double declaration.
