2016-02-27unix: properly account for FDs passed over unix socketswilly tarreau
commit 712f4aad406bb1ed67f3f98d04c044191f0ff593 upstream. It is possible for a process to allocate and accumulate far more FDs than the process' limit by sending them over a unix socket then closing them to keep the process' fd count low. This change addresses this problem by keeping track of the number of FDs in flight per user and preventing non-privileged processes from having more FDs in flight than their configured FD limit.

2016-02-27hrtimer: Handle remaining time proper for TIME_LOW_RESThomas Gleixner
commit 203cbf77de59fc8f13502dcfd11350c6d4a5c95f upstream. If CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES is enabled we add a jiffie to the relative timeout to prevent short sleeps, but we do not account for that in interfaces which retrieve the remaining time. Helge observed that timerfd can return a remaining time larger than the relative timeout. That's not expected and breaks userland test programs. Store the information that the timer was armed relative and provide functions to adjust the remaining time. To avoid bloating the hrtimer struct make state a u8, which as a bonus results in better code on x86 at least.

2016-02-13printk: help pr_debug and pr_devel to optimize out argumentsAaron Conole
commit fe22cd9b7c980b8b948ec85f034a8668c57ec867 upstream. Currently, pr_debug and pr_devel will not elide function call arguments appearing in calls to the no_printk for these macros. This is because all side effects must be honored before proceeding to the 0-value assignment in no_printk. The behavior is contrary to documentation found in the CodingStyle and the header file where these functions are declared. This patch corrects that behavior by shunting out the call to no_printk completely. The format string is still checked by gcc for correctness, but no code seems to be emitted in common cases.

commit 49e4b84333f338d4f183f28f1f3c1131b9fb2b5a upstream. Currently when the system is trying to uninstall the ACPI interrupt handler, it uses acpi_gbl_FADT.sci_interrupt as the IRQ number.

2015-11-27ext4, jbd2: ensure entering into panic after recording an error in superblockDaeho Jeong
commit 4327ba52afd03fc4b5afa0ee1d774c9c5b0e85c5 upstream. If a EXT4 filesystem utilizes JBD2 journaling and an error occurs, the journaling will be aborted first and the error number will be recorded into JBD2 superblock and, finally, the system will enter into the panic state in "errors=panic" option. But, in the rare case, this sequence is little twisted like the below figure and it will happen that the system enters into panic state, which means the system reset in mobile environment, before completion of recording an error in the journal superblock. In this case, e2fsck cannot recognize that the filesystem failure occurred in the previous run and the corruption wouldn't be fixed.

2015-10-13fs: create and use seq_show_option for escapingKees Cook
commit a068acf2ee77693e0bf39d6e07139ba704f461c3 upstream. Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files. This could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or in other situations with delegated mount privileges. Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use of "sudo" is something more sneaky: $ BASE="ovl" $ MNT="$BASE/mnt" $ LOW="$BASE/lower" $ UP="$BASE/upper" $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000" $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK" $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt $ cat /proc/mounts none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0 $ fusermount -u /proc $ cat /proc/mounts cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

2015-10-13PCI: Add dev_flags bit to access VPD through function 0Mark Rustad
commit 932c435caba8a2ce473a91753bad0173269ef334 upstream. Add a dev_flags bit, PCI_DEV_FLAGS_VPD_REF_F0, to access VPD through function 0 to provide VPD access on other functions. This is for hardware devices that provide copies of the same VPD capability registers in multiple functions. Because the kernel expects that each function has its own registers, both the locking and the state tracking are affected by VPD accesses to different functions. On such devices for example, if a VPD write is performed on function 0, *any* later attempt to read VPD from any other function of that device will hang. This has to do with how the kernel tracks the expected value of the F bit per function. Concurrent accesses to different functions of the same device can not only hang but also corrupt both read and write VPD data. When hangs occur, typically the error message: vpd r/w failed. This is likely a firmware bug on this device. will be seen. Never set this bit on function 0 or there will be an infinite recursion.

2015-08-12jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal superblock failsJoseph Qi
commit 6f6a6fda294506dfe0e3e0a253bb2d2923f28f0a upstream. If updating journal superblock fails after journal data has been flushed, the error is omitted and this will mislead the caller as a normal case. In ocfs2, the checkpoint will be treated successfully and the other node can get the lock to update. Since the sb_start is still pointing to the old log block, it will rewrite the journal data during journal recovery by the other node. Thus the new updates will be overwritten and ocfs2 corrupts. So in above case we have to return the error, and ocfs2_commit_cache will take care of the error and prevent the other node to do update first. And only after recovering journal it can do the new updates.

Thus when we update journal superblock effectively removing old transaction from journal, this write of superblock can get to stable storage before those checkpointed buffers which can result in filesystem corruption after a crash. Thus we must unconditionally issue a cache flush before we update journal superblock in these cases. A similar problem can also occur if journal superblock is written only in disk's caches, other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log and power failure happens. Subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that.

2015-08-12jbd2: split updating of journal superblock and marking journal emptyJan Kara
commit 24bcc89c7e7c64982e6192b4952a0a92379fc341 upstream. There are three case of updating journal superblock. In the first case, we want to mark journal as empty (setting s_sequence to 0), in the second case we want to update log tail, in the third case we want to update s_errno. Split these cases into separate functions. It makes the code slightly more straightforward and later patches will make the distinction even more important.

commit d8fd150fe3935e1692bf57c66691e17409ebb9c1 upstream. The range check for b-tree level parameter in nilfs_btree_root_broken() is wrong; it accepts the case of "level == NILFS_BTREE_LEVEL_MAX" even though the level is limited to values in the range of 0 to (NILFS_BTREE_LEVEL_MAX - 1). Since the level parameter is read from storage device and used to index nilfs_btree_path array whose element count is NILFS_BTREE_LEVEL_MAX, it can cause memory overrun during btree operations if the boundary value is set to the level parameter on device. This fixes the broken sanity check and adds a comment to clarify that the upper bound NILFS_BTREE_LEVEL_MAX is exclusive.

commit 2e7056c433216f406b90a003aa0ba42e19d3bdcf upstream. Looking over the implementation for jhash2 and comparing it to jhash_3words I realized that the two hashes were in fact very different. Doing a bit of digging led me to "The new jhash implementation" in which lookup2 was supposed to have been replaced with lookup3. In reviewing the patch I noticed that jhash2 had originally initialized a and b to JHASH_GOLDENRATIO and c to initval, but after the patch a, b, and c were initialized to initval + (length << 2) + JHASH_INITVAL. However the changes in jhash_3words simply replaced the initialization of a and b with JHASH_INITVAL. This change corrects what I believe was an oversight so that a, b, and c in jhash_3words all have the same value added consisting of initval + (length << 2) + JHASH_INITVAL so that jhash2 and jhash_3words will now produce the same hash result given the same inputs.

2015-05-09fsnotify: fix handling of renames in auditJan Kara
commit 6ee8e25fc3e916193bce4ebb43d5439e1e2144ab upstream. Commit e9fd702a58c4 ("audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify instead of inotify") broke handling of renames in audit. Audit code wants to update inode number of an inode corresponding to watched name in a directory. When something gets renamed into a directory to a watched name, inotify previously passed moved inode to audit code however new fsnotify code passes directory inode where the change happened. That confuses audit and it starts watching parent directory instead of a file in a directory. This can be observed for example by doing: cd /tmp touch foo bar auditctl -w /tmp/foo touch foo mv bar foo touch foo In audit log we see events like: type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1423563584.155:90): auid=1000 ses=2 op="updated rules" path="/tmp/foo" key=(null) list=4 res=1 ... type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=2 name="bar" inode=1046884 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=DELETE type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=3 name="foo" inode=1046842 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=DELETE type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=4 name="foo" inode=1046884 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=CREATE ... and that's it - we see event for the first touch after creating the audit rule, we see events for rename but we don't see any event for the last touch. However we start seeing events for unrelated stuff happening in /tmp. Fix the problem by passing moved inode as data in the FS_MOVED_FROM and FS_MOVED_TO events instead of the directory where the change happens. This doesn't introduce any new problems because noone besides audit_watch.c cares about the passed value: fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c cares only about FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH events. fs/notify/dnotify/dnotify.c doesn't care about passed 'data' value at all. fs/notify/inotify/inotify_fsnotify.c uses 'data' only for FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH. kernel/audit_tree.c doesn't care about passed 'data' at all. kernel/audit_watch.c expects moved inode as 'data'.

2015-05-09USB: add flag for HCDs that can't receive wakeup requests (isp1760-hcd)Alan Stern
commit 074f9dd55f9cab1b82690ed7e44bcf38b9616ce0 upstream. Currently the USB stack assumes that all host controller drivers are capable of receiving wakeup requests from downstream devices. However, this isn't true for the isp1760-hcd driver, which means that it isn't safe to do a runtime suspend of any device attached to a root-hub port if the device requires wakeup. This patch adds a "cant_recv_wakeups" flag to the usb_hcd structure and sets the flag in isp1760-hcd. The core is modified to prevent a direct child of the root hub from being put into runtime suspend with wakeup enabled if the flag is set.

2015-05-09usb: core: buffer: smallest buffer should start at ARCH_DMA_MINALIGNSebastian Andrzej Siewior
commit 5efd2ea8c9f4f12916ffc8ba636792ce052f6911 upstream. the following error pops up during "testusb -a -t 10" | musb-hdrc musb-hdrc.1.auto: dma_pool_free buffer-128, f134e000/be842000 (bad dma) hcd_buffer_create() creates a few buffers, the smallest has 32 bytes of size. ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to 64 bytes. This combo results in hcd_buffer_alloc() returning memory which is 32 bytes aligned and it might by identified by buffer_offset() as another buffer. This means the buffer which is on a 32 byte boundary will not get freed, instead it tries to free another buffer with the error message. This patch fixes the issue by creating the smallest DMA buffer with the size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (or 32 in case ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is smaller). This might be 32, 64 or even 128 bytes. The next three pools will have the size 128, 512 and 2048. In case the smallest pool is 128 bytes then we have only three pools instead of four (and zero the first entry in the array). The last pool size is always 2048 bytes which is the assumed PAGE_SIZE / 2 of 4096. I doubt it makes sense to continue using PAGE_SIZE / 2 where we would end up with 8KiB buffer in case we have 16KiB pages. Instead I think it makes sense to have a common size(s) and extend them if there is need to. There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() now in case someone has a minalign of more than 128 bytes.

commit 1399ff86f2a2bbacbbe68fa00c5f8c752b344723 upstream. We can place this in definitions that we expect the compiler to remove by dead code elimination. If this assertion fails, we get a nice error message at build time. The GCC function attribute error("message") was added in version 4.3, so we define a new macro __linktime_error(message) to expand to this for GCC-4.3 and later. This will give us an error diagnostic from the compiler on the line that fails. For other compilers __linktime_error(message) expands to nothing, and we have to be content with a link time error, but at least we will still get a build error. BUILD_BUG() expands to the undefined function __build_bug_failed() and will fail at link time if the compiler ever emits code for it. On GCC-4.3 and later, attribute((error())) is used so that the failure will be noted at compile time instead.

2015-02-20vm: add VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV handling supportLinus Torvalds
commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream. The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a "you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler. That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV. In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by that duplicated architecture fault handler. However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS. To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying. This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that cleanup. Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other "newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about them too.

2015-02-20usb-core bInterval quirkJames P Michels III
commit cd83ce9e6195aa3ea15ab4db92892802c20df5d0 upstream. This patch adds a usb quirk to support devices with interupt endpoints and bInterval values expressed as microframes. The quirk causes the parse endpoint function to modify the reported bInterval to a standards conforming value. There is currently code in the endpoint parser that checks for bIntervals that are outside of the valid range (1-16 for USB 2+ high speed and super speed interupt endpoints). In this case, the code assumes the bInterval is being reported in 1ms frames. As well, the correction is only applied if the original bInterval value is out of the 1-16 range. With this quirk applied to the device, the bInterval will be accurately adjusted from microframes to an exponent.

2015-02-20mm: protect set_page_dirty() from ongoing truncationJohannes Weiner
commit 2d6d7f98284648c5ed113fe22a132148950b140f upstream. Tejun, while reviewing the code, spotted the following race condition between the dirtying and truncation of a page: __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() __delete_from_page_cache() if (TestSetPageDirty(page)) page->mapping = NULL if (PageDirty()) dec_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); dec_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); if (page->mapping) account_page_dirtied(page) __inc_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY); __inc_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE); which results in an imbalance of NR_FILE_DIRTY and BDI_RECLAIMABLE. Dirtiers usually lock out truncation, either by holding the page lock directly, or in case of zap_pte_range(), by pinning the mapcount with the page table lock held. The notable exception to this rule, though, is do_wp_page(), for which this race exists. However, do_wp_page() already waits for a locked page to unlock before setting the dirty bit, in order to prevent a race where clear_page_dirty() misses the page bit in the presence of dirty ptes. Upgrade that wait to a fully locked set_page_dirty() to also cover the situation explained above. Afterwards, the code in set_page_dirty() dealing with a truncation race is no longer needed.

commit ed6d7c8e578331cad594ee70d60e2e146b5dce7b upstream. There's only one caller of set_page_dirty_balance() and that will call it with page_mkwrite == 0. The page_mkwrite argument was unused since commit b827e496c893 "mm: close page_mkwrite races".

2015-02-20mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchyKonstantin Khlebnikov
commit 7a3ef208e662f4b63d43a23f61a64a129c525bbc upstream. Constantly forking task causes unlimited grow of anon_vma chain. Each next child allocates new level of anon_vmas and links vma to all previous levels because pages might be inherited from any level. This patch adds heuristic which decides to reuse existing anon_vma instead of forking new one. It adds counter anon_vma->degree which counts linked vmas and directly descending anon_vmas and reuses anon_vma if counter is lower than two. As a result each anon_vma has either vma or at least two descending anon_vmas. In such trees half of nodes are leafs with alive vmas, thus count of anon_vmas is no more than two times bigger than count of vmas. This heuristic reuses anon_vmas as few as possible because each reuse adds false aliasing among vmas and rmap walker ought to scan more ptes when it searches where page is might be mapped.

commit 6ada1fc0e1c4775de0e043e1bd3ae9d065491aa5 upstream. An unvalidated user input is multiplied by a constant, which can result in an undefined behaviour for large values. While this is validated later, we should avoid triggering undefined behaviour.

2015-02-20mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard pageLinus Torvalds
commit fee7e49d45149fba60156f5b59014f764d3e3728 upstream. Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma that is reported by /proc/maps. This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done. And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit d7824370e263: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area. This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error. It also effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit. Let's see if anybody notices. We could teach acct_stack_growth() to allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test, but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.
