* ipc: sysv shared memory limited to 8TiBRobin Holt2013-05-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit d69f3bad4675ac519d41ca2b11e1c00ca115cecd upstream. Trying to run an application which was trying to put data into half of memory using shmget(), we found that having a shmall value below 8EiB-8TiB would prevent us from using anything more than 8TiB. By setting kernel.shmall greater than 8EiB-8TiB would make the job work. In the newseg() function, ns->shm_tot which, at 8TiB is INT_MAX. ipc/shm.c: 458 static int newseg(struct ipc_namespace *ns, struct ipc_params *params) 459 { ... 465 int numpages = (size + PAGE_SIZE -1) >> PAGE_SHIFT; ... 474 if (ns->shm_tot + numpages > ns->shm_ctlall) 475 return -ENOSPC; [akpm@linux-foundation.org: make ipc/shm.c:newseg()'s numpages size_t, not int] Signed-off-by: Robin Holt <holt@sgi.com> Reported-by: Alex Thorlton <athorlton@sgi.com> 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>
* net: fix incorrect credentials passingLinus Torvalds2013-05-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 83f1b4ba917db5dc5a061a44b3403ddb6e783494 ] Commit 257b5358b32f ("scm: Capture the full credentials of the scm sender") changed the credentials passing code to pass in the effective uid/gid instead of the real uid/gid. Obviously this doesn't matter most of the time (since normally they are the same), but it results in differences for suid binaries when the wrong uid/gid ends up being used. This just undoes that (presumably unintentional) part of the commit. Reported-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: Serge E.

* netfilter: don't reset nf_trace in nf_reset()Patrick McHardy2013-05-011-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 124dff01afbdbff251f0385beca84ba1b9adda68 ] Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary. nf_reset() is used in the following cases: - when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point. - when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue tracing these packets after IPsec processing. - when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should be traced after that, however we've always done that. - when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the original patch intended to fix. Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to fix this properly. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: count hw_addr syncs so that unsync works properly.Vlad Yasevich2013-05-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 4543fbefe6e06a9e40d9f2b28d688393a299f079 ] A few drivers use dev_uc_sync/unsync to synchronize the address lists from master down to slave/lower devices. In some cases (bond/team) a single address list is synched down to multiple devices. At the time of unsync, we have a leak in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a boolean and the address will not be unsynced for anything after the first device/call. Treat "synced" as a count (same as refcount) and allow all unsync calls to work. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* vm: add vm_iomap_memory() helper functionLinus Torvalds2013-04-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b4cbb197c7e7a68dbad0d491242e3ca67420c13e upstream. Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases to use. Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around, and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level. It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really need to. So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver. Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

* KVM: Allow cross page reads and writes from cached translations.Andrew Honig2013-04-252-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8f964525a121f2ff2df948dac908dcc65be21b5b upstream. This patch adds support for kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init functions for reads and writes that will cross a page. If the range falls within the same memslot, then this will be a fast operation. If the range is split between two memslots, then the slower kvm_read_guest and kvm_write_guest are used. Tested: Test against kvm_clock unit tests.

* spinlocks and preemption points need to be at least compiler barriersLinus Torvalds2013-04-122-19/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 386afc91144b36b42117b0092893f15bc8798a80 upstream. In UP and non-preempt respectively, the spinlocks and preemption disable/enable points are stubbed out entirely, because there is no regular code that can ever hit the kind of concurrency they are meant to protect against. However, while there is no regular code that can cause scheduling, we _do_ end up having some exceptional (literally!) code that can do so, and that we need to make sure does not ever get moved into the critical region by the compiler. In particular, get_user() and put_user() is generally implemented as inline asm statements (even if the inline asm may then make a call instruction to call out-of-line), and can obviously cause a page fault and IO as a result. If that inline asm has been scheduled into the middle of a preemption-safe (or spinlock-protected) code region, we obviously lose. Now, admittedly this is *very* unlikely to actually ever happen, and we've not seen examples of actual bugs related to this. But partly exactly because it's so hard to trigger and the resulting bug is so subtle, we should be extra careful to get this right. So make sure that even when preemption is disabled, and we don't have to generate any actual *code* to explicitly tell the system that we are in a preemption-disabled region, we need to at least tell the compiler not to move things around the critical region. This patch grew out of the same discussion that caused commits 79e5f05edcbf ("ARC: Add implicit compiler barrier to raw_local_irq* functions") and 3e2e0d2c222b ("tile: comment assumption about __insn_mtspr for <asm/irqflags.h>") to come about. Note for stable: use discretion when/if applying this. As mentioned, this bug may never have actually bitten anybody, and gcc may never have done the required code motion for it to possibly ever trigger in practice.

If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading to potential NULL pointer dereferences. Fix by: - ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called - ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without kvm->lock held.

* exec: use -ELOOP for max recursion depthKees Cook2013-03-281-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit d740269867021faf4ce38a449353d2b986c34a67 upstream. To avoid an explosion of request_module calls on a chain of abusive scripts, fail maximum recursion with -ELOOP instead of -ENOEXEC. As soon as maximum recursion depth is hit, the error will fail all the way back up the chain, aborting immediately. This also has the side-effect of stopping the user's shell from attempting to reexecute the top-level file as a shell script. As seen in the dash source: if (cmd != path_bshell && errno == ENOEXEC) { *argv-- = cmd; *argv = cmd = path_bshell; goto repeat; } The above logic was designed for running scripts automatically that lacked the "#!" header, not to re-try failed recursion. On a legitimate -ENOEXEC, things continue to behave as the shell expects. Additionally, when tracking recursion, the binfmt handlers should not be involved. The recursion being tracked is the depth of calls through search_binary_handler(), so that function should be exclusively responsible for tracking the depth.

Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS measurement to crash when running on CPU0. The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0, the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

* unbreak automounter support on 64-bit kernel with 32-bit userspace (v2)Helge Deller2013-03-041-17/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 4f4ffc3a5398ef9bdbb32db04756d7d34e356fcf upstream. automount-support is broken on the parisc architecture, because the existing #if list does not include a check for defined(__hppa__). The HPPA (parisc) architecture is similiar to other 64bit Linux targets where we have to define autofs_wqt_t (which is passed back and forth to user space) as int type which has a size of 32bit across 32 and 64bit kernels. During the discussion on the mailing list, H. Peter Anvin suggested to invert the #if list since only specific platforms (specifically those who do not have a 32bit userspace, like IA64 and Alpha) should have autofs_wqt_t as unsigned long type. This suggestion is probably the best way to go, since Arm64 (and maybe others?) seems to have a non-working automounter. So in the long run even for other new upcoming architectures this inverted check seem to be the best solution, since it will not require them to change this #if again (unless they are 64bit only).

* NLS: improve UTF8 -> UTF16 string conversion routineAlan Stern2013-02-281-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 0720a06a7518c9d0c0125bd5d1f3b6264c55c3dd upstream. The utf8s_to_utf16s conversion routine needs to be improved. Unlike its utf16s_to_utf8s sibling, it doesn't accept arguments specifying the maximum length of the output buffer or the endianness of its 16-bit output. This patch (as1501) adds the two missing arguments, and adjusts the only two places in the kernel where the function is called. A follow-on patch will add a third caller that does utilize the new capabilities. The two conversion routines are still annoyingly inconsistent in the way they handle invalid byte combinations. But that's a subject for a different patch.

The problem was observed with Sound Blaster Extigy mixer, where nNrModes in Up/Down-mix Processing Unit Descriptor was accessed at offset 10 of the descriptor (value 0) instead of offset 15 (value 7). In result the resulting control had interesting limit values: Simple mixer control 'Channel Routing Mode Select',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined penum Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - -1 Mono: -1 [100%] Fixed by starting from the bmControls, which was calculated correctly, instead of baSourceID.

With an RCU based mmu_notifier implementation, any callout to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}() or mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() would not be allowed to call schedule() as that could potentially allow a modification to the mmu_notifier structure while it is currently being used. Since srcu allocs 4 machine words per instance per cpu, we may end up with memory exhaustion if we use srcu per mm. So all mms share a global srcu.

* printk: fix buffer overflow when calling log_prefix function from ↵Alexandre SIMON2013-02-211-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | call_console_drivers This patch corrects a buffer overflow in kernels from 3.0 to 3.4 when calling log_prefix() function from call_console_drivers(). This bug existed in previous releases but has been revealed with commit 162a7e7500f9664636e649ba59defe541b7c2c60 (2.6.39 => 3.0) that made changes about how to allocate memory for early printk buffer (use of memblock_alloc). It disappears with commit 7ff9554bb578ba02166071d2d487b7fc7d860d62 (3.4 => 3.5) that does a refactoring of printk buffer management. In log_prefix(), the access to "p[0]", "p[1]", "p[2]" or "simple_strtoul(&p[1], &endp, 10)" may cause a buffer overflow as this function is called from call_console_drivers by passing "&LOG_BUF(cur_index)" where the index must be masked to do not exceed the buffer's boundary. The trick is to prepare in call_console_drivers() a buffer with the necessary data (PRI field of syslog message) to be safely evaluated in log_prefix(). This patch can be applied to stable kernel branches 3.0.y, 3.2.y and 3.4.y. Without this patch, one can freeze a server running this loop from shell : $ export DUMMY=`cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc '12345AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBNazertyuiopqsdfghjklmwxcvbn' | head -c255` $ while true do ; echo $DUMMY > /dev/kmsg ; done The "server freeze" depends on where memblock_alloc does allocate printk buffer : if the buffer overflow is inside another kernel allocation the problem may not be revealed, else the server may hangs up.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 115c9b81928360d769a76c632bae62d15206a94a upstream. 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.

* ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functionsSteven Rostedt2013-01-111-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 45959ee7aa645815a5ce303a0ea1e48a21e67c6a upstream. When gcc inlines a function, it does not mark it with the mcount prologue, which in turn means that inlined functions are not traced by the function tracer. But if CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, then gcc is allowed not to inline a function that is marked inline. Depending on the options and the compiler, a function may or may not be traced by the function tracer, depending on whether gcc decides to inline a function or not. This has caused several problems in the pass becaues gcc is not always consistent with what it decides to inline between different gcc versions. Some places should not be traced (like paravirt native_* functions) and these are mostly marked as inline. When gcc decides not to inline the function, and if that function should not be traced, then the ftrace function tracer will suddenly break when it use to work fine. This becomes even harder to debug when different versions of gcc will not inline that function, making the same kernel and config work for some gcc versions and not work for others. By making all functions marked inline to not be traced will remove the ambiguity that gcc adds when it comes to tracing functions marked inline. All gcc versions will be consistent with what functions are traced and having volatile working code will be removed. Note, only the inline macro when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set needs to have notrace added, as the attribute __always_inline will force the function to be inlined and then not traced.

Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and (PageHead) is true, for tail pages. If this is indeed the intended behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic. This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages. [ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr 2008 in commit 6a1e7f777f61: "pageflags: convert to the use of new macros". And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead() tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on pages that are actual page heads. The fact that the old code returned true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Christoffer Dall <cdall@cs.columbia.edu> Acked-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Will Deacon <Will.Deacon@arm.com> Cc: Steve Capper <Steve.Capper@arm.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
* exec: do not leave bprm->interp on stackKees Cook2013-01-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b66c5984017533316fd1951770302649baf1aa33 upstream. If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak into the command line. Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively. However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching binfmt modules. Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted. They leave bprm->interp pointing to their local stack. This means on restart bprm->interp is left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the userspace argv areas. After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules. As such, we need to protect the changes to interp. This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the bprm->interp. To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default value is left as-is. Only when passing through binfmt_script or binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.

Commit 00442ad04a5e ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired. This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page(). Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() - those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad04a5e, alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

I was not keen on this approach because it partially duplicates sp_alloc().

* xfrm_user: ensure user supplied esn replay window is validMathias Krause2012-10-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit ecd7918745234e423dd87fcc0c077da557909720 ] The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute. This leads to following issues: 1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling code later on. 2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires CAP_NET_ADMIN). Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's iproute2 patch (<http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/85962/>). The latter uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not. strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1. To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a fully specified one. For the former case we initialize the in-kernel bitmap with zero, for the latter we copy the user supplied bitmap. For state updates the full bitmap must be supplied. To prevent overflows in the bitmap length calculation the maximum size of bmp_len is limited to 128 by this patch -- resulting in a maximum replay window of 4096 packets. This should be sufficient for all real life scenarios (RFC 4303 recommends a default replay window size of 64).

* time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputsJohn Stultz2012-10-022-9/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 4e8b14526ca7fb046a81c94002c1c43b6fdf0e9b upstream Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the year 2262). Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are injected via adjtimex. So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid negative value or one that overflows ktime_t. Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

* sched: Fix race in task_group()Peter Zijlstra2012-10-022-2/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8323f26ce3425460769605a6aece7a174edaa7d1 upstream. Stefan reported a crash on a kernel before a3e5d1091c1 ("sched: Don't call task_group() too many times in set_task_rq()"), he found the reason to be that the multiple task_group() invocations in set_task_rq() returned different values. Looking at all that I found a lack of serialization and plain wrong comments. The below tries to fix it using an extra pointer which is updated under the appropriate scheduler locks. Its not pretty, but I can't really see another way given how all the cgroup stuff works.

* NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' arrayTrond Myklebust2012-10-021-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit c3f52af3e03013db5237e339c817beaae5ec9e3a upstream. When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode) helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *). At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 05cf96398e1b6502f9e191291b715c7463c9d5dd upstream. I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64 platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be 0. #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits, so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0. Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs. I think it should be: #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace: kernel BUG at mm/memory_hotplug.c:885! sh[6455]: bugcheck! 0 [1] Pid: 6455, CPU 0, comm: sh psr : 0000101008526030 ifs : 8000000000000fa4 ip : [<a0000001008c40f0>] Not tainted (3.6.0-rc1) ip is at offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 Call Trace: show_stack+0x80/0xa0 show_regs+0x640/0x920 die+0x190/0x2c0 die_if_kernel+0x50/0x80 ia64_bad_break+0x3d0/0x6e0 ia64_native_leave_kernel+0x0/0x270 offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 alloc_pages_current+0x180/0x2a0 Signed-off-by: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> 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>

I had a hard time trying to disable it anyway ;-) The problem this time is lots of code assuming that a call to add_uevent_var() will guarantee that env->buflen > 0. This is not true if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset. So things like this end up overwriting env->envp_idx because the array index is -1: if (add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=")) return -ENOMEM; len = input_print_modalias(&env->buf[env->buflen - 1], sizeof(env->buf) - env->buflen, dev, 0); Don't know what the best action is, given that there seem to be a *lot* of this around the kernel. This patch "fixes" the problem for me, but I don't know if it can be considered an appropriate fix.

* perf_event: Switch to internal refcount, fix race with close()Al Viro2012-10-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit a6fa941d94b411bbd2b6421ffbde6db3c93e65ab upstream. Don't mess with file refcounts (or keep a reference to file, for that matter) in perf_event. Use explicit refcount of its own instead. Deal with the race between the final reference to event going away and new children getting created for it by use of atomic_long_inc_not_zero() in inherit_event(); just have the latter free what it had allocated and return NULL, that works out just fine (children of siblings of something doomed are created as singletons, same as if the child of leader had been created and immediately killed).

* vfs: dcache: use DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED instead of DCACHE_DISCONNECTED in d_kill()Miklos Szeredi2012-10-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b161dfa6937ae46d50adce8a7c6b12233e96e7bd upstream. IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989cb5f ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

* net: Allow driver to limit number of GSO segments per skbBen Hutchings2012-10-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 30b678d844af3305cda5953467005cebb5d7b687 ] A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps). Given that we have a sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough, it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once. This results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments. In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than a full ring. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried after the TX reset). This particularly affects sfc, for which the issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412. Therefore: 1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific limit. 2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.
