commit 623446e4dc45b37740268165107cc63abb3022f0 upstream.
free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn are the pointer that remember
restart position of freepage scanner. When they are reset or invalid,
we set them to zone_end_pfn because freepage scanner works in reverse
direction. But, because zone range is defined as [zone_start_pfn,
zone_end_pfn), zone_end_pfn is invalid to access. Therefore, we should
not store it to free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn. Instead, we need
to store zone_end_pfn - 1 to them. There is one more thing we should
consider. Freepage scanner scan reversely by pageblock unit. If
free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn are set to middle of pageblock, it
regards that sitiation as that it already scans front part of pageblock
so we lose opportunity to scan there. To fix-up, this patch do
round_down() to guarantee that reset position will be pageblock aligned.
Note that thanks to the current pageblock_pfn_to_page() implementation,
actual access to zone_end_pfn doesn't happen until now. But, following
patch will change pageblock_pfn_to_page() so this patch is needed from
now on.

commit 898dfe4687f460ba337a01c11549f87269a13fa2 upstream.
The aloop driver tries to update the hw constraints of the connected
target on the cable of the opened PCM substream. This is done by
adding the extra hw constraints rules referring to the substream
runtime->hw fields, while the other substream may update the runtime
hw of another side on the fly.
This is, however, racy and may result in the inconsistent values when
both PCM streams perform the prepare concurrently. One of the reason
is that it overwrites the other's runtime->hw field; which is not only
racy but also broken when it's called before the open of another side
finishes. And, since the reference to runtime->hw isn't protected,
the concurrent write may give the partial value update and become
inconsistent.
This patch is an attempt to fix and clean up:
- The prepare doesn't change the runtime->hw of other side any longer,
but only update the cable->hw that is referred commonly.
- The extra rules refer to the loopback_pcm object instead of the
runtime->hw. The actual hw is deduced from cable->hw.
- The extra rules take the cable_lock to protect against the race.

commit b088b53e20c7d09b5ab84c5688e609f478e5c417 upstream.
The extra hw constraint rule for the formats the aloop driver
introduced has a slight flaw, where it doesn't return a positive value
when the mask got changed. It came from the fact that it's basically
a copy&paste from snd_hw_constraint_mask64(). The original code is
supposed to be a single-shot and it modifies the mask bits only once
and never after, while what we need for aloop is the dynamic hw rule
that limits the mask bits.
This difference results in the inconsistent state, as the hw_refine
doesn't apply the dependencies fully. The worse and surprisingly
result is that it causes a crash in OSS emulation when multiple
full-duplex reads/writes are performed concurrently (I leave why it
triggers Oops to readers as a homework).
For fixing this, replace a few open-codes with the standard
snd_mask_*() macros.

commit 900498a34a3ac9c611e9b425094c8106bdd7dc1c upstream.
PCM OSS read/write loops keep taking the mutex lock for the whole
read/write, and this might take very long when the exceptionally high
amount of data is given. Also, since it invokes with mutex_lock(),
the concurrent read/write becomes unbreakable.
This patch tries to address these issues by replacing mutex_lock()
with mutex_lock_interruptible(), and also splits / re-takes the lock
at each read/write period chunk, so that it can switch the context
more finely if requested.

commit 29159a4ed7044c52e3e2cf1a9fb55cec4745c60b upstream.
The loops for read and write in PCM OSS emulation have no proper check

break. This results in a very long delay, often seen as RCU stall
when a huge unprocessed bytes remain queued. The bug could be easily
triggered by syzkaller.
As a simple workaround, this patch adds the proper check of pending
signals and aborts the loop appropriately.

commit fe08f34d066f4404934a509b6806db1a4f700c86 upstream.
syzkaller triggered kernel warnings through PCM OSS emulation at
closing a stream:

....
This happens while it tries to open and set up the aloop device
concurrently. The warning above (invoked from snd_BUG_ON() macro) is
to detect the unexpected logical error where snd_pcm_hw_refine() call
shouldn't fail. The theory is true for the case where the hw_params
config rules are static. But for an aloop device, the hw_params rule
condition does vary dynamically depending on the connected target;
when another device is opened and changes the parameters, the device
connected in another side is also affected, and it caused the error
from snd_pcm_hw_refine().
That is, the simplest "solution" for this is to remove the incorrect
assumption of static rules, and treat such an error as a normal error
path. As there are a couple of other places using snd_BUG_ON()
incorrectly, this patch removes these spurious snd_BUG_ON() calls.

With upcoming CONFIG_UBSAN the following BUILD_BUG_ON in
net/mac80211/debugfs.c starts to trigger:
BUILD_BUG_ON(hw_flag_names[NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS] != (void *)0x1);
It seems, that compiler instrumentation causes some code
deoptimizations. Because of that GCC is not being able to resolve
condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() at compile time.
We could make size of hw_flag_names array unspecified and replace the
condition in BUILD_BUG_ON() with following:
ARRAY_SIZE(hw_flag_names) != NUM_IEEE80211_HW_FLAGS
That will have the same effect as before (adding new flag without
updating array will trigger build failure) except it doesn't fail with
CONFIG_UBSAN. As a bonus this patch slightly decreases size of
hw_flag_names array.

commit be07a6a1188372b6d19a3307ec33211fc9c9439d upstream.
Fix a commit 72b22bbad1e7 ("MIPS: Don't assume 64-bit FP registers for
FP regset") public API regression, then activated by commit 1db1af84d6df
("MIPS: Basic MSA context switching support"), that caused the FCSR
register not to be read or written for CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA kernel
configurations (regardless of actual presence or absence of the MSA
feature in a given processor) with ptrace(2) PTRACE_GETREGSET and
PTRACE_SETREGSET requests nor recorded in core dumps.
This is because with !CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA configurations the whole of
`elf_fpregset_t' array is bulk-copied as it is, which includes the FCSR
in one half of the last, 33rd slot, whereas with CONFIG_CPU_HAS_MSA
configurations array elements are copied individually, and then only the
leading 32 FGR slots while the remaining slot is ignored.
Correct the code then such that only FGR slots are copied in the
respective !MSA and MSA helpers an then the FCSR slot is handled
separately in common code. Use `ptrace_setfcr31' to update the FCSR
too, so that the read-only mask is respected.
Retrieving a correct value of FCSR is important in debugging not only
for the human to be able to get the right interpretation of the
situation, but for correct operation of GDB as well. This is because
the condition code bits in FSCR are used by GDB to determine the
location to place a breakpoint at when single-stepping through an FPU
branch instruction. If such a breakpoint is placed incorrectly (i.e.
with the condition reversed), then it will be missed, likely causing the
debuggee to run away from the control of GDB and consequently breaking
the process of investigation.
Fortunately GDB continues using the older PTRACE_GETFPREGS ptrace(2)
request which is unaffected, so the regression only really hits with
post-mortem debug sessions using a core dump file, in which case
execution, and consequently single-stepping through branches is not
possible. Of course core files created by buggy kernels out there will
have the value of FCSR recorded clobbered, but such core files cannot be
corrected and the person using them simply will have to be aware that
the value of FCSR retrieved is not reliable.
Which also means we can likely get away without defining a replacement
API which would ensure a correct value of FSCR to be retrieved, or none
at all.
This is based on previous work by Alex Smith, extensively rewritten.

Update commit d614fd58a283 ("mips/ptrace: Preserve previous registers

to `fpr_set_msa' with the ptrace(2) PTRACE_SETREGSET request, such that
a zero data buffer counter is returned where insufficient data has been
given to fill a whole number of FP general registers.
In reality this is not going to happen, as the caller is supposed to
only supply data covering a whole number of registers and it is verified
in `ptrace_regset' and again asserted in `fpr_set', however structuring
code such that the presence of trailing partial FP general register data
causes `fpr_set_msa' to return with a non-zero data buffer counter makes
it appear that this trailing data will be used if there are subsequent
writes made to FP registers, which is going to be the case with the FCSR
once the missing write to that register has been fixed.

commit bec40c26041de61162f7be9d2ce548c756ce0f65 upstream.
With the SRP protocol all RDMA operations are initiated by the target.
Since no RDMA operations are initiated by the initiator, do not grant
the initiator permission to submit RDMA reads or writes to the target.

The "set_bittiming" callback treats a positive return value as error!
For that reason "can_changelink()" will quit silently after setting
the bittiming values without processing ctrlmode, restart-ms, etc.

The path of patched vmmcall will patch 3 bytes opcode 0F 01 C1(vmcall)
to the guest memory, however, write_mmio tracepoint always prints 8 bytes
through *(u64 *)val since kvm splits the mmio access into 8 bytes. This
leaks 5 bytes from the kernel stack (CVE-2017-17741). This patch fixes
it by just accessing the bytes which we operate on.

commit fbc7c07ec23c040179384a1f16b62b6030eb6bdd upstream.
When system is under memory pressure it is observed that dm bufio
shrinker often reclaims only one buffer per scan. This change fixes
the following two issues in dm bufio shrinker that cause this behavior:
1. ((nr_to_scan - freed) <= retain_target) condition is used to
terminate slab scan process. This assumes that nr_to_scan is equal
to the LRU size, which might not be correct because do_shrink_slab()
in vmscan.c calculates nr_to_scan using multiple inputs.
As a result when nr_to_scan is less than retain_target (64) the scan
will terminate after the first iteration, effectively reclaiming one
buffer per scan and making scans very inefficient. This hurts vmscan
performance especially because mutex is acquired/released every time
dm_bufio_shrink_scan() is called.
New implementation uses ((LRU size - freed) <= retain_target)
condition for scan termination. LRU size can be safely determined
inside __scan() because this function is called after dm_bufio_lock().
2. do_shrink_slab() uses value returned by dm_bufio_shrink_count() to
determine number of freeable objects in the slab. However dm_bufio
always retains retain_target buffers in its LRU and will terminate
a scan when this mark is reached. Therefore returning the entire LRU size
from dm_bufio_shrink_count() is misleading because that does not
represent the number of freeable objects that slab will reclaim during
a scan. Returning (LRU size - retain_target) better represents the
number of freeable objects in the slab. This way do_shrink_slab()
returns 0 when (LRU size < retain_target) and vmscan will not try to
scan this shrinker avoiding scans that will not reclaim any memory.
Test: tested using Android device running
<AOSP>/system/extras/alloc-stress that generates memory pressure
and causes intensive shrinker scans

commit e0224418516b4d8a6c2160574bac18447c354ef0 upstream.
Currently, percpu symbols from .data..percpu ELF section of a module are
not copied over and stored in final symtab array of struct module.
Consequently such symbol cannot be returned via kallsyms API (for
example kallsyms_lookup_name). This can be especially confusing when the
percpu symbol is exported. Only its __ksymtab et al. are present in its
symtab.
The culprit is in layout_and_allocate() function where SHF_ALLOC flag is
dropped for .data..percpu section. There is in fact no need to copy the
section to final struct module, because kernel module loader allocates
extra percpu section by itself. Unfortunately only symbols from
SHF_ALLOC sections are copied due to a check in is_core_symbol().
The patch changes is_core_symbol() function to copy over also percpu
symbols (their st_shndx points to .data..percpu ELF section). We do it
only if CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL is set to be consistent with the rest of the
function (ELF section is SHF_ALLOC but !SHF_EXECINSTR). Finally
elf_type() returns type 'a' for a percpu symbol because its address is
absolute.

commit 1e5476815fd7f98b888e01a0f9522b63085f96c9 upstream.
The recent changes for PTI touch cpu_tlbstate from various tlb_flush
inlines. cpu_tlbstate is exported as GPL symbol, so this causes a
regression when building out of tree drivers for certain graphics cards.
Aside of that the export was wrong since it was introduced as it should
have been EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL_GPL().
Use the correct PER_CPU export and drop the _GPL to restore the previous
state which allows users to utilize the cards they payed for.
As always I'm really thrilled to make this kind of change to support the
#friends (or however the hot hashtag of today is spelled) from that closet
sauce graphics corp.

commit 88776c0e70be0290f8357019d844aae15edaa967 upstream.
Qemu for PARISC reported on a 32bit SMP parisc kernel strange failures
about "Not-handled unaligned insn 0x0e8011d6 and 0x0c2011c9."
Those opcodes evaluate to the ldcw() assembly instruction which requires
(on 32bit) an alignment of 16 bytes to ensure atomicity.
As it turns out, qemu is correct and in our assembly code in entry.S and
pacache.S we don't pay attention to the required alignment.
This patch fixes the problem by aligning the lock offset in assembly
code in the same manner as we do in our C-code.

commit 426915796ccaf9c2bd9bb06dc5702225957bc2e5 upstream.
complete_signal() checks SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE before it starts to destroy
the thread group, today this is wrong in many ways.
If nothing else, fatal_signal_pending() should always imply that the
whole thread group (except ->group_exit_task if it is not NULL) is
killed, this check breaks the rule.
After the previous changes we can rely on sig_task_ignored();
sig_fatal(sig) && SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can only be true if we actually want
to kill this task and sig == SIGKILL OR it is traced and debugger can
intercept the signal.
This should hopefully fix the problem reported by Dmitry. This
test-case
static int init(void *arg)
{
for (;;)
pause();
}
int main(void)
{
char stack[16 * 1024];
for (;;) {
int pid = clone(init, stack + sizeof(stack)/2,
CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL);
assert(pid > 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0, 0) == 0);
assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, WSTOPPED) == pid);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0);
assert(syscall(__NR_tkill, pid, SIGKILL) == 0);
assert(pid == wait(NULL));
}
}
triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(!(task->jobctl & JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING)) in
task_participate_group_stop(). do_signal_stop()->signal_group_exit()
checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and return false, but task_set_jobctl_pending()
checks fatal_signal_pending() and does not set JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.
And his should fix the minor security problem reported by Kyle,
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE can miss fatal_signal_pending() the same way if the
task is the root of a pid namespace.

commit 628c1bcba204052d19b686b5bac149a644cdb72e upstream.
The comment in sig_ignored() says "Tracers may want to know about even
ignored signals" but SIGKILL can not be reported to debugger and it is
just wrong to return 0 in this case: SIGKILL should only kill the
SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE task if it comes from the parent ns.
Change sig_ignored() to ignore ->ptrace if sig == SIGKILL and rely on
sig_task_ignored().
SISGTOP coming from within the namespace is not really right too but at
least debugger can intercept it, and we can't drop it here because this
will break "gdb -p 1": ptrace_attach() won't work. Perhaps we will add
another ->ptrace check later, we will see.

commit 98801506552593c9b8ac11021b0cdad12cab4f6b upstream.
Fix the default for fscache_maybe_release_page() for when the cookie isn't
valid or the page isn't cached. It mustn't return false as that indicates
the page cannot yet be freed.
The problem with the default is that if, say, there's no cache, but a
network filesystem's pages are using up almost all the available memory, a
system can OOM because the filesystem ->releasepage() op will not allow
them to be released as fscache_maybe_release_page() incorrectly prevents
it.
This can be tested by writing a sequence of 512MiB files to an AFS mount.
It does not affect NFS or CIFS because both of those wrap the call in a
check of PG_fscache and it shouldn't bother Ceph as that only has
PG_private set whilst writeback is in progress. This might be an issue for
9P, however.
Note that the pages aren't entirely stuck. Removing a file or unmounting
will clear things because that uses ->invalidatepage() instead.

pcrypt is using the old way of freeing instances, where the ->free()
method specified in the 'struct crypto_template' is passed a pointer to
the 'struct crypto_instance'. But the crypto_instance is being
kfree()'d directly, which is incorrect because the memory was actually
allocated as an aead_instance, which contains the crypto_instance at a
nonzero offset. Thus, the wrong pointer was being kfree()'d.
Fix it by switching to the new way to free aead_instance's where the
->free() method is specified in the aead_instance itself.

commit 4d9570158b6260f449e317a5f9ed030c2504a615 upstream.
As Tsukada explains, the time_is_before_jiffies(acct->needcheck) check
is very wrong, we need time_is_after_jiffies() to make sys_acct() work.
Ignoring the overflows, the code should "goto out" if needcheck >
jiffies, while currently it checks "needcheck < jiffies" and thus in the
likely case check_free_space() does nothing until jiffies overflow.
In particular this means that sys_acct() is simply broken, acct_on()
sets acct->needcheck = jiffies and expects that check_free_space()
should set acct->active = 1 after the free-space check, but this won't
happen if jiffies increments in between.
This was broken by commit 32dc73086015 ("get rid of timer in
kern/acct.c") in 2011, then another (correct) commit 795a2f22a8ea
("acct() should honour the limits from the very beginning") made the
problem more visible.
