wait_task_zombie() first does EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_DEAD transition and
drops tasklist_lock. If this task is not the natural child and it is
traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent.
The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d257486a
"ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE
race". wait_consider_task() tries to detect this transition and clear
->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can
exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE.
And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition
can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if
EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else. So
the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if
/sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable.
Change reparent_leader() to update ->exit_signal even if EXIT_DEAD.
Note: this is the simple temporary hack for -stable, it doesn't try to
solve all problems, it will be reverted by the next changes.

In arch_cpu_idle() we must enable %pil based interrupts before
potentially invoking the hypervisor cpu yield call.
As per the Hypervisor API documentation for cpu_yield:
Interrupts which are blocked by some mechanism other that
pstate.ie (for example %pil) are not guaranteed to cause
a return from this service.
It seems that only first generation Niagara chips are hit by this
bug. My best guess is that later chips implement this in hardware
and wake up anyways from %pil events, whereas in first generation
chips the yield is implemented completely in hypervisor code and
requires %pil to be enabled in order to wake properly from this
call.

The variable csize in structure jffs2_tmp_dnode_info is of type uint16_t, but it
is used to hold the compressed data length(csize) which is declared as uint32_t.
So, when the value of csize exceeds 16bits, it gets truncated when assigned to
tn->csize. This is causing a kernel BUG.
Changing the definition of csize in jffs2_tmp_dnode_info to uint32_t fixes the issue.
This crash is caused because the 'positions' is declared as an array of signed
short. The value of position is in the range 0..65535, and will be converted
to a negative number when the position is greater than 32767 and causes a
corruption and crash. Changing the definition to 'unsigned short' fixes this

Xfstests generic/311 and shared/298 fail when run on a bigalloc file
system. Kernel error messages produced during the tests report that
blocks to be freed are already on the to-be-freed list. When e2fsck
is run at the end of the tests, it typically reports bad i_blocks and
bad free blocks counts.
The bug that causes these failures is located in ext4_ext_rm_leaf().
Code at the end of the function frees a partial cluster if it's not
shared with an extent remaining in the leaf. However, if all the
extents in the leaf have been removed, the code dereferences an
invalid extent pointer (off the front of the leaf) when the check for
sharing is made. This generally has the effect of unconditionally
freeing the partial cluster, which leads to the observed failures
when the partial cluster is shared with the last extent in the next
leaf.
Fix this by attempting to free the cluster only if extents remain in
the leaf. Any remaining partial cluster will be freed if possible
when the next leaf is processed or when leaf removal is complete.
Commit 9cb00419fa, which enables hole punching for bigalloc file
systems, exposed a bug introduced by commit 6ae06ff51e in an earlier
release. When run on a bigalloc file system, xfstests generic/013, 068,
075, 083, 091, 100, 112, 127, 263, 269, and 270 fail with e2fsck errors
or cause kernel error messages indicating that previously freed blocks
are being freed again.
The latter commit optimizes the selection of the starting extent in
ext4_ext_rm_leaf() when hole punching by beginning with the extent
supplied in the path argument rather than with the last extent in the
leaf node (as is still done when truncating). However, the code in
rm_leaf that initially sets partial_cluster to track cluster sharing on
extent boundaries is only guaranteed to run if rm_leaf starts with the
last node in the leaf. Consequently, partial_cluster is not correctly
initialized when hole punching, and a cluster on the boundary of a
punched region that should be retained may instead be deallocated.
Commit 3779473246 breaks the return of error codes from
ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents() in ext4_ext_map_blocks(). A
portion of the patch assigns that function's signed integer return
value to an unsigned int. Consequently, negatively valued error codes
are lost and can be treated as a bogus allocated block count.
Zach found this deadlock that would happen like this
btrfs_end_transaction <- reduce trans->use_count to 0
btrfs_run_delayed_refs
btrfs_cow_block
find_free_extent
btrfs_start_transaction <- increase trans->use_count to 1
allocate chunk
btrfs_end_transaction <- decrease trans->use_count to 0
btrfs_run_delayed_refs
lock tree block we are cowing above ^^
We need to only decrease trans->use_count if it is above 1, otherwise leave it
alone. This will make nested trans be the only ones who decrease their added
ref, and will let us get rid of the trans->use_count++ hack if we have to commit
the transaction. Thanks,

I got an error on v3.13:
BTRFS error (device sdf1) in write_all_supers:3378: errno=-5 IO failure (errors while submitting device barriers.)
how to reproduce:
> mkfs.btrfs -f -d raid1 /dev/sdf1 /dev/sdf2
> wipefs -a /dev/sdf2
> mount -o degraded /dev/sdf1 /mnt
> btrfs balance start -f -sconvert=single -mconvert=single -dconvert=single /mnt
The reason of the error is that barrier_all_devices() failed to submit
barrier to the missing device. However it is clear that we cannot do
anything on missing device, and also it is not necessary to care chunks
on the missing device.
This patch stops sending/waiting barrier if device is missing.
Commit f5ea1100 ("xfs: add CRCs to dir2/da node blocks") introduced
in 3.10 incorrectly converted the btree hash index array pointer in
xfs_da3_fixhashpath(). It resulted in the the current hash always
being compared against the first entry in the btree rather than the
current block index into the btree block's hash entry array. As a
result, it was comparing the wrong hashes, and so could misorder the
entries in the btree.
For most cases, this doesn't cause any problems as it requires hash
collisions to expose the ordering problem. However, when there are
hash collisions within a directory there is a very good probability
that the entries will be ordered incorrectly and that actually
matters when duplicate hashes are placed into or removed from the
btree block hash entry array.
This bug results in an on-disk directory corruption and that results
in directory verifier functions throwing corruption warnings into
the logs. While no data or directory entries are lost, access to
them may be compromised, and attempts to remove entries from a
directory that has suffered from this corruption may result in a
filesystem shutdown. xfs_repair will fix the directory hash
ordering without data loss occuring.

set_worker_desc() because bdi->dev is NULL.
This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending

Fix the problem by clearing BDI_registered bit in bdi_unregister() and
checking it before scheduling of any flushing work.

bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() used the mod_delayed_work() function to
schedule work to writeback dirty inodes. The problem with this is that
it can delay work that is scheduled for immediate execution, such as the
work from sync_inodes_sb(). This can happen since mod_delayed_work()
can now steal work from a work_queue. This fixes the problem by using
queue_delayed_work() instead. This is a regression caused by commit 839a8e8660b6 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with
unbound workqueue").
The reason that this causes a problem is that laptop-mode will change
the delay, dirty_writeback_centisecs, to 60000 (10 minutes) by default.
In the case that bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() races with
sync_inodes_sb(), sync will be stopped for 10 minutes and trigger a hung
task. Even if dirty_writeback_centisecs is not long enough to cause a
hung task, we still don't want to delay sync for that long.
We fix the problem by using queue_delayed_work() when we want to
schedule writeback sometime in future. This function doesn't change the
timer if it is already armed.
For the same reason, we also change bdi_writeback_workfn() to
immediately queue the work again in the case that the work_list is not
empty. The same problem can happen if the sync work is run on the
rescue worker.

With the new template mechanism introduced in IMA since kernel 3.13,
the format of data sent through the binary_runtime_measurements interface
is slightly changed. Now, for a generic measurement, the format of
template data (after the template name) is:
In addition, fields containing a string now include the '\0' termination
character.
Instead, the format for the 'ima' template should be:
SHA1 digest | event name length | event name
It must be noted that while in the IMA 3.13 code 'event name length' is
'IMA_EVENT_NAME_LEN_MAX + 1' (256 bytes), so that the template digest
is calculated correctly, and 'event name' contains '\0', in the pre 3.13
code 'event name length' is exactly the string length and 'event name'
does not contain the termination character.
The patch restores the behavior of the IMA code pre 3.13 for the 'ima'
template so that legacy userspace tools obtain a consistent behavior
when receiving data from the binary_runtime_measurements interface
regardless of which kernel version is used.

The user-settable knob, low_latency, has been the source of
several BUG reports which stem from flush_to_ldisc() running
in interrupt context. Since 3.12, which added several sleeping
locks (termios_rwsem and buf->lock) to the input processing path,
the frequency of these BUG reports has increased.
Note that changes in 3.12 did not introduce this regression;
sleeping locks were first added to the input processing path
with the removal of the BKL from N_TTY in commit a88a69c91256418c5907c2f1f8a0ec0a36f9e6cc,
'n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_tty'
and later in commit 38db89799bdf11625a831c5af33938dcb11908b6,
'tty: throttling race fix'. Since those changes, executing
flush_to_ldisc() in interrupt_context (ie, low_latency set), is unsafe.
However, since most devices do not validate if the low_latency
setting is appropriate for the context (process or interrupt) in
which they receive data, some reports are due to misconfiguration.
Further, serial dma devices for which dma fails, resort to
interrupt receiving as a backup without resetting low_latency.
Historically, low_latency was used to force wake-up the reading
process rather than wait for the next scheduler tick. The
effect was to trim multiple milliseconds of latency from
when the process would receive new data.
Recent tests [1] have shown that the reading process now receives
data with only 10's of microseconds latency without low_latency set.
Remove the low_latency rx steering from tty_flip_buffer_push();
however, leave the knob as an optional hint to drivers that can
tune their rx fifos and such like. Cleanup stale code comments
regarding low_latency.

The 'active' sysfs attribute should refer to the currently active tty
devices the console is running on, not the currently active console. The
console structure doesn't refer to any device in sysfs, only the tty the
console is running on has. So we need to print out the tty names in
'active', not the console names.
There is one special-case, which is tty0. If the console is directed to
it, we want 'tty0' to show up in the file, so user-space knows that the
messages get forwarded to the active VT. The ->device() callback would
resolve tty0, though. Hence, treat it special and don't call into the VT
layer to resolve it (plymouth is known to depend on it).

during initialization of the National Instruments boards handled by the

"ni_pcidio" driver, where the initialization was done by `mite_setup()`

Andreas reported that after 1f42db786b14 ("PCI: Enable INTx if BIOS left
them disabled"), pciehp surprise removal stopped working.
This happens because pci_reenable_device() on the hotplug bridge (used in
the pciehp_configure_device() path) clears the Interrupt Disable bit, which
apparently breaks the bridge's MSI hotplug event reporting.
Previously we cleared the Interrupt Disable bit in do_pci_enable_device(),
which is used by both pci_enable_device() and pci_reenable_device(). But
we use pci_reenable_device() after the driver may have enabled MSI or
MSI-X, and we *set* Interrupt Disable as part of enabling MSI/MSI-X.
This patch clears Interrupt Disable only when MSI/MSI-X has not been
enabled.

Commit 03bbcb2e7e2 (iommu/vt-d: add quirk for broken interrupt
remapping on 55XX chipsets) properly disables irq remapping on the
5500/5520 chipsets that don't correctly perform that feature.
However, when I wrote it, I followed the errata sheet linked in that
commit too closely, and explicitly tied the activation of the quirk to
revision 0x13 of the chip, under the assumption that earlier revisions
were not in the field. Recently a system was reported to be suffering
from this remap bug and the quirk hadn't triggered, because the
revision id register read at a lower value that 0x13, so the quirk
test failed improperly. Given this, it seems only prudent to adjust
this quirk so that any revision less than 0x13 has the quirk asserted.

following way:
* the cpu predicts that idx < entries is true and starts executing the
body of the for loop
* the cpu fetches map->extent[0].first and map->extent[0].count
* the cpu fetches map->nr_extents
* the cpu verifies that idx < extents is true, so it commits the
instructions in the body of the for loop
The problem is that in this scenario, the cpu read map->extent[0].first
and map->nr_extents in the wrong order. We need a full read memory barrier
to prevent it.
The GHASH setkey() function uses SSE registers but fails to call
kernel_fpu_begin()/kernel_fpu_end(). Instead of adding these calls, and
then having to deal with the restriction that they cannot be called from
interrupt context, move the setkey() implementation to the C domain.
Note that setkey() does not use any particular SSE features and is not
expected to become a performance bottleneck.

If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there
is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init().
This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result,

The Synopsys APB DW UART has a couple of special features that are not
in the System C model. In 3.8, the 8250_dw driver didn't really use these
features, but from 3.9 onwards, the 8250_dw driver has become incompatible
with our model.
The powernow-k6 driver used to read the initial multiplier from the
powernow register. However, there is a problem with this:
* If there was a frequency transition before, the multiplier read from the
register corresponds to the current multiplier.
* If there was no frequency transition since reset, the field in the
register always reads as zero, regardless of the current multiplier that
is set using switches on the mainboard and that the CPU is running at.
The zero value corresponds to multiplier 4.5, so as a consequence, the
powernow-k6 driver always assumes multiplier 4.5.
For example, if we have 550MHz CPU with bus frequency 100MHz and
multiplier 5.5, the powernow-k6 driver thinks that the multiplier is 4.5
and bus frequency is 122MHz. The powernow-k6 driver then sets the
multiplier to 4.5, underclocking the CPU to 450MHz, but reports the
current frequency as 550MHz.
There is no reliable way how to read the initial multiplier. I modified
the driver so that it contains a table of known frequencies (based on
parameters of existing CPUs and some common overclocking schemes) and sets
the multiplier according to the frequency. If the frequency is unknown
(because of unusual overclocking or underclocking), the user must supply
the bus speed and maximum multiplier as module parameters.
This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't
apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it.

I found out that a system with k6-3+ processor is unstable during network
server load. The system locks up or the network card stops receiving. The
reason for the instability is the CPU frequency scaling.
During frequency transition the processor is in "EPM Stop Grant" state.
The documentation says that the processor doesn't respond to inquiry
requests in this state. Consequently, coherency of processor caches and
bus master devices is not maintained, causing the system instability.
This patch flushes the cache during frequency transition. It fixes the
instability.
Other minor changes:
* u64 invalue changed to unsigned long because the variable is 32-bit
* move the logic to set the multiplier to a separate function
powernow_k6_set_cpu_multiplier
* preserve lower 5 bits of the powernow port instead of 4 (the voltage
field has 5 bits)
* mask interrupts when reading the multiplier, so that the port is not
open during other activity (running other kernel code with the port open
shouldn't cause any misbehavior, but we should better be safe and keep
the port closed)
This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't
apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it.

There are three buffer overflows addressed in this patch.
1) In isdnloop_fake_err() we add an 'E' to a 60 character string and
then copy it into a 60 character buffer. I have made the destination
buffer 64 characters and I'm changed the sprintf() to a snprintf().
2) In isdnloop_parse_cmd(), p points to a 6 characters into a 60
character buffer so we have 54 characters. The ->eazlist[] is 11
characters long. I have modified the code to return if the source
buffer is too long.
3) In isdnloop_command() the cbuf[] array was 60 characters long but the
max length of the string then can be up to 79 characters. I made the
cbuf array 80 characters long and changed the sprintf() to snprintf().
I also removed the temporary "dial" buffer and changed it to use "p"
directly.
Unfortunately, we pass the "cbuf" string from isdnloop_command() to
isdnloop_writecmd() which truncates anything over 60 characters to make
it fit in card->omsg[]. (It can accept values up to 255 characters so
long as there is a '\n' character every 60 characters). For now I have
just fixed the memory corruption bug and left the other problems in this
driver alone.

If the vxlan interface is created without explicit group definition,
there are corner cases which may cause kernel panic.
For instance, in the following scenario:
node A:
$ ip link add dev vxlan42 address 2c:c2:60:00:10:20 type vxlan id 42
$ ip addr add dev vxlan42 10.0.0.1/24
$ ip link set up dev vxlan42
$ arp -i vxlan42 -s 10.0.0.2 2c:c2:60:00:01:02
$ bridge fdb add dev vxlan42 to 2c:c2:60:00:01:02 dst <IPv4 address>
$ ping 10.0.0.2
node B:
$ ip link add dev vxlan42 address 2c:c2:60:00:01:02 type vxlan id 42
$ ip addr add dev vxlan42 10.0.0.2/24
$ ip link set up dev vxlan42
$ arp -i vxlan42 -s 10.0.0.1 2c:c2:60:00:10:20
When vxlan interface is created without explicit group definition, the
default_dst protocol family is initialiazed to AF_UNSPEC and the driver
assumes IPv4 configuration. On the other side, the default_dst protocol
family is used to differentiate between IPv4 and IPv6 cases and, since,
AF_UNSPEC != AF_INET, the processing takes the IPv6 path.
Making the IPv4 assumption explicit by settting default_dst protocol
family to AF_INET4 and preventing mixing of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in
snooped fdb entries fixes the corner case crashes.

When netback discovers frontend is sending malformed packet it will
disables the interface which serves that frontend.
However disabling a network interface involving taking a mutex which
cannot be done in softirq context, so we need to defer this process to
kthread context.
This patch does the following:
1. introduce a flag to indicate the interface is disabled.
2. check that flag in TX path, don't do any work if it's true.
3. check that flag in RX path, turn off that interface if it's true.
The reason to disable it in RX path is because RX uses kthread. After
this change the behavior of netback is still consistent -- it won't do
any TX work for a rogue frontend, and the interface will be eventually
turned off.
Also change a "continue" to "break" after xenvif_fatal_tx_err, as it
doesn't make sense to continue processing packets if frontend is rogue.
This is a fix for XSA-90.

nla_strcmp compares the string length plus one, so it's implicitly

int nla_strcmp(const struct nlattr *nla, const char *str)
{
int len = strlen(str) + 1;
...
d = memcmp(nla_data(nla), str, len);
However, if NLA_STRING is used, userspace can send us a string without
the nul-termination. This is a problem since the string
comparison will not match as the last byte may be not the
nul-termination.
Fix this by skipping the comparison of the nul-termination if the

Current error handling of virtqueue_kick() was wrong in two places:

- try_fill_recv() returns false when virtqueue_kick() fail. This will

The VXLAN neigh_reduce() code is completely non-functional since
check-in. Specific errors:
1) The original code drops all packets with a multicast destination address,
even though neighbor solicitations are sent to the solicited-node
address, a multicast address. The code after this check was never run.
2) The neighbor table lookup used the IPv6 header destination, which is the
solicited node address, rather than the target address from the
neighbor solicitation. So neighbor lookups would always fail if it
got this far. Also for L3MISSes.
3) The code calls ndisc_send_na(), which does a send on the tunnel device.
The context for neigh_reduce() is the transmit path, vxlan_xmit(),
where the host or a bridge-attached neighbor is trying to transmit
a neighbor solicitation. To respond to it, the tunnel endpoint needs
to do a *receive* of the appropriate neighbor advertisement. Doing a
send, would only try to send the advertisement, encapsulated, to the
remote destinations in the fdb -- hosts that definitely did not do the
corresponding solicitation.
4) The code uses the tunnel endpoint IPv6 forwarding flag to determine the
isrouter flag in the advertisement. This has nothing to do with whether
or not the target is a router, and generally won't be set since the
tunnel endpoint is bridging, not routing, traffic.
The patch below creates a proxy neighbor advertisement to respond to
neighbor solicitions as intended, providing proper IPv6 support for neighbor
reduction.

remove the rlb_client_info->tag, but occur some issues,
The vlan_get_tag() will return 0 for success and -EINVAL for

vlan_get_tag return 0 for success, so the client_info would

We should only set the vlan id to 0 when the vlan_get_tag return error.

snooping part if no real querier issuing periodic general queries

Problem is that incomplete frags are still around after unload; when
their frag expire timer fires, we get crash.
When a netns is removed (also done when unloading module), inet_frag
calls the evictor with 'force' argument to purge remaining frags.
The evictor loop terminates when accounted memory ('work') drops to 0
or the lru-list becomes empty. However, the mem accounting is done
via percpu counters and may not be accurate, i.e. loop may terminate
prematurely.
Alter evictor to only stop once the lru list is empty when force is
requested.

When a topology server subscriber is disconnected, the associated
connection id is set to zero. A check vs zero is then done in the
subscription timeout function to see if the subscriber have been
shut down. This is unnecessary, because all subscription timers
will be cancelled when a subscriber terminates. Setting the
connection id to zero is actually harmful because id zero is the
identity of the topology server listening socket, and can cause a
race that leads to this socket being closed instead.

When tipc_conn_sendmsg() calls tipc_conn_lookup() to query a

send workqueue, and the connection reference count is not decreased.
This will cause a reference count leak. To reproduce this problem,

connections with high intensity.
We fix this by immediately decrementing the connection reference
count if a send fails due to the connection being closed.

Currently connection shutdown callback function is called when
connection instance is released in tipc_conn_kref_release(), and
receiving packets and sending packets are running in different
threads. Even if connection is closed by the thread of receiving
packets, its shutdown callback may not be called immediately as
the connection reference count is non-zero at that moment. So,
although the connection is shut down by the thread of receiving
packets, the thread of sending packets doesn't know it. Before
its shutdown callback is invoked to tell the sending thread its
connection has been closed, the sending thread may deliver
messages by tipc_conn_sendmsg(), this is why the following error
information appears:
"Sending subscription event failed, no memory"
To eliminate it, allow connection shutdown callback function to
be called before connection id is removed in tipc_close_conn(),
which makes the sending thread know the truth in time that its
socket is closed so that it doesn't send message to it. We also
remove the "Sending XXX failed..." error reporting for topology
and config services.

While working on ec0223ec48a9 ("net: sctp: fix sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce to
verify if we/peer is AUTH capable"), we noticed that there's a skb
memory leakage in the error path.
Running the same reproducer as in ec0223ec48a9 and by unconditionally
jumping to the error label (to simulate an error condition) in
sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce() receive path lets kmemleak detector bark about
the unfreed chunk->auth_chunk skb clone:
What happens is that commit bbd0d59809f9 clones the skb containing
the AUTH chunk in sctp_endpoint_bh_rcv() when having the edge case
that an endpoint requires COOKIE-ECHO chunks to be authenticated:
When we enter sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce() and before we actually get to
the point where we process (and subsequently free) a non-NULL
chunk->auth_chunk, we could hit the "goto nomem_init" path from
an error condition and thus leave the cloned skb around w/o
freeing it.
The fix is to centrally free such clones in sctp_chunk_destroy()
handler that is invoked from sctp_chunk_free() after all refs have
dropped; and also move both kfree_skb(chunk->auth_chunk) there,
so that chunk->auth_chunk is either NULL (since sctp_chunkify()
allocs new chunks through kmem_cache_zalloc()) or non-NULL with
a valid skb pointer. chunk->skb and chunk->auth_chunk are the
only skbs in the sctp_chunk structure that need to be handeled.
While at it, we should use consume_skb() for both. It is the same
as dev_kfree_skb() but more appropriately named as we are not
a device but a protocol. Also, this effectively replaces the
kfree_skb() from both invocations into consume_skb(). Functions
are the same only that kfree_skb() assumes that the frame was
being dropped after a failure (e.g. for tools like drop monitor),
usage of consume_skb() seems more appropriate in function
sctp_chunk_destroy() though.

I stumbled upon this very serious bug while hunting for another one,
it's a very subtle race condition between inet_frag_evictor,
inet_frag_intern and the IPv4/6 frag_queue and expire functions
(basically the users of inet_frag_kill/inet_frag_put).
What happens is that after a fragment has been added to the hash chain
but before it's been added to the lru_list (inet_frag_lru_add) in
inet_frag_intern, it may get deleted (either by an expired timer if
the system load is high or the timer sufficiently low, or by the
fraq_queue function for different reasons) before it's added to the
lru_list, then after it gets added it's a matter of time for the
evictor to get to a piece of memory which has been freed leading to a
number of different bugs depending on what's left there.
I've been able to trigger this on both IPv4 and IPv6 (which is normal
as the frag code is the same), but it's been much more difficult to
trigger on IPv4 due to the protocol differences about how fragments
are treated.
The setup I used to reproduce this is: 2 machines with 4 x 10G bonded
in a RR bond, so the same flow can be seen on multiple cards at the
same time. Then I used multiple instances of ping/ping6 to generate
fragmented packets and flood the machines with them while running
other processes to load the attacked machine.
*It is very important to have the _same flow_ coming in on multiple CPUs
concurrently. Usually the attacked machine would die in less than 30
minutes, if configured properly to have many evictor calls and timeouts
it could happen in 10 minutes or so.
An important point to make is that any caller (frag_queue or timer) of
inet_frag_kill will remove both the timer refcount and the
original/guarding refcount thus removing everything that's keeping the
frag from being freed at the next inet_frag_put. All of this could
happen before the frag was ever added to the LRU list, then it gets
added and the evictor uses a freed fragment.
An example for IPv6 would be if a fragment is being added and is at
the stage of being inserted in the hash after the hash lock is
released, but before inet_frag_lru_add executes (or is able to obtain
the lru lock) another overlapping fragment for the same flow arrives
at a different CPU which finds it in the hash, but since it's
overlapping it drops it invoking inet_frag_kill and thus removing all
guarding refcounts, and afterwards freeing it by invoking
inet_frag_put which removes the last refcount added previously by
inet_frag_find, then inet_frag_lru_add gets executed by
inet_frag_intern and we have a freed fragment in the lru_list.
The fix is simple, just move the lru_add under the hash chain locked
region so when a removing function is called it'll have to wait for
the fragment to be added to the lru_list, and then it'll remove it (it
works because the hash chain removal is done before the lru_list one
and there's no window between the two list adds when the frag can get
dropped). With this fix applied I couldn't kill the same machine in 24
hours with the same setup.

This patch is based on an earlier patch by Eric Paris, he describes
the problem below:
"If an inode is accessed before policy load it will get placed on a
list of inodes to be initialized after policy load. After policy
load we call inode_doinit() which calls inode_doinit_with_dentry()
on all inodes accessed before policy load. In the case of inodes
in procfs that means we'll end up at the bottom where it does:
/* Default to the fs superblock SID. */
isec->sid = sbsec->sid;
if ((sbsec->flags & SE_SBPROC) && !S_ISLNK(inode->i_mode)) {
if (opt_dentry) {
isec->sclass = inode_mode_to_security_class(...)
rc = selinux_proc_get_sid(opt_dentry,
isec->sclass,
&sid);
if (rc)
goto out_unlock;
isec->sid = sid;
}
}
Since opt_dentry is null, we'll never call selinux_proc_get_sid()
and will leave the inode labeled with the label on the superblock.
I believe a fix would be to mimic the behavior of xattrs. Look
for an alias of the inode. If it can't be found, just leave the
inode uninitialized (and pick it up later) if it can be found, we
should be able to call selinux_proc_get_sid() ..."
On a system exhibiting this problem, you will notice a lot of files in
/proc with the generic "proc_t" type (at least the ones that were
accessed early in the boot), for example:
