A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
lg, lg3, and lg4 HID drivers to write beyond the output report allocation
during an event, causing a heap overflow:

cleaned up and shortened.
A memcg may livelock when oom if the process that grabs the hierarchy's
oom lock is never the first process with PF_EXITING set in the memcg's
task iteration.
The oom killer, both global and memcg, will defer if it finds an
eligible process that is in the process of exiting and it is not being
ptraced. The idea is to allow it to exit without using memory reserves
before needlessly killing another process.
This normally works fine except in the memcg case with a large number of
threads attached to the oom memcg. In this case, the memcg oom killer
only gets called for the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock;
all others end up blocked on the memcg's oom waitqueue. Thus, if the
process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock is never the first
PF_EXITING process in the memcg's task iteration, the oom killer is
constantly deferred without anything making progress.
The fix is to give PF_EXITING processes access to memory reserves so
that we've marked them as oom killed without any iteration. This allows
__mem_cgroup_try_charge() to succeed so that the process may exit. This
makes the memcg oom killer exemption for TIF_MEMDIE tasks, now
immediately granted for processes with pending SIGKILLs and those in the
exit path, to be equivalent to what is done for the global oom killer.

LVM2, since version 2.02.96, creates origin with zero size, then loads
the snapshot driver and then loads the origin. Consequently, the
snapshot driver sees the origin size zero and sets the hash size to the
lower bound 64. Such small hash table causes performance degradation.
This patch changes it so that the hash size is determined by the size of
snapshot volume, not minimum of origin and snapshot size. It doesn't
make sense to set the snapshot size significantly larger than the origin
size, so we do not need to take origin size into account when
calculating the hash size.
The kernel reports a lockdep warning if a snapshot is invalidated because
it runs out of space.
The lockdep warning was triggered by commit 0976dfc1d0cd80a4e9dfaf87bd87
("workqueue: Catch more locking problems with flush_work()") in v3.5.
The warning is false positive. The real cause for the warning is that
the lockdep engine treats different instances of md->lock as a single
lock.
This patch is a workaround - we use flush_workqueue instead of flush_work.
This code path is not performance sensitive (it is called only on
initialization or invalidation), thus it doesn't matter that we flush the
whole workqueue.
The real fix for the problem would be to teach the lockdep engine to treat
different instances of md->lock as separate locks.

Trying to read data from the Pegasus Technologies NoteTaker (0e20:0101)
[1] with the Windows App (EasyNote) works natively but fails when
Windows is running under KVM (and the USB device handed to KVM).
The reason is a USB control message
usb 4-2.2: control urb: bRequestType=22 bRequest=09 wValue=0200 wIndex=0001 wLength=0008
This goes to endpoint address 0x01 (wIndex); however, endpoint address
0x01 does not exist. There is an endpoint 0x81 though (same number,
but other direction); the app may have meant that endpoint instead.
The kernel thus rejects the IO and thus we see the failure.
Apparently, Linux is more strict here than Windows ... we can't change
the Win app easily, so that's a problem.
It seems that the Win app/driver is buggy here and the driver does not
behave fully according to the USB HID class spec that it claims to
belong to. The device seems to happily deal with that though (and
seems to not really care about this value much).
So the question is whether the Linux kernel should filter here.
Rejecting has the risk that somewhat non-compliant userspace apps/
drivers (most likely in a virtual machine) are prevented from working.
Not rejecting has the risk of confusing an overly sensitive device with
such a transfer. Given the fact that Windows does not filter it makes
this risk rather small though.
The patch makes the kernel more tolerant: If the endpoint address in
wIndex does not exist, but an endpoint with toggled direction bit does,
it will let the transfer through. (It does NOT change the message.)
With attached patch, the app in Windows in KVM works.
usb 4-2.2: check_ctrlrecip: process 13073 (qemu-kvm) requesting ep 01 but needs 81
I suspect this will mostly affect apps in virtual environments; as on
Linux the apps would have been adapted to the stricter handling of the
kernel. I have done that for mine[2].
The halted state of a endpoint cannot be cleared over CLEAR_HALT from a
user process, because the stopped_td variable was overwritten in the
handle_stopped_endpoint() function. So the xhci_endpoint_reset() function will
refuse the reset and communication with device can not run over this endpoint.

If a command on the command ring needs to be cancelled before it is handled
it can be turned to a no-op operation when the ring is stopped.
We want to store the command ring enqueue pointer in the command structure
when the command in enqueued for the cancellation case.
Some commands used to store the command ring dequeue pointers instead of enqueue
(these often worked because enqueue happends to equal dequeue quite often)
Other commands correctly used the enqueue pointer but did not check if it pointed
to a valid trb or a link trb, this caused for example stop endpoint command to timeout in
xhci_stop_device() in about 2% of suspend/resume cases.
This should also solve some weird behavior happening in command cancellation cases.
This patch is based on a patch submitted by Sarah Sharp to linux-usb, but
then forgotten:

It seems there is a race condition and wpa supplicant is
trying to open the device via iw_handlers before its actually
closed at a stage that the buffers are being removed.
The device is longer considered open when the
buffers are being removed. So move ~DEVICE_FLAGS_OPENED
flag to before freeing the device buffers.
Due to the workaround described in commit 916f676f8 ("x86, efi: Retain
boot service code until after switching to virtual mode") EFI Boot
Service regions are mapped for a period during boot. Unfortunately, with
the limited size of the i386 direct kernel map it's possible that some
of the Boot Service regions will not be directly accessible, which
causes them to be ioremap()'d, triggering the above warning as the
regions are marked as E820_RAM in the e820 memmap.
There are currently only two situations where we need to map EFI Boot
Service regions,
1. To workaround the firmware bug described in 916f676f8
2. To access the ACPI BGRT image
but since we haven't seen an i386 implementation that requires either,
this simple fix should suffice for now.

sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() for recycled pages
This bug fix is only for stable branches older than 3.10. The bug was
fixed upstream by commit 2768935a4660 ('sfc: reuse pages to avoid DMA
mapping/unmapping costs'), but that change is totally unsuitable for
stable.
Commit b590ace09d51 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of
swiotlb') added an explicit page_offset member to struct
efx_rx_buffer, which must be set consistently with the u.page and
dma_addr fields. However, it failed to add the necessary assignment
in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(). It also did not correct the calculation
of efx_rx_buffer::dma_addr in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(), which assumes
that DMA-mapping a page will result in a page-aligned DMA address
(exactly what swiotlb violates).
Add the assignment of efx_rx_buffer::page_offset and change the
calculation of dma_addr to make use of it.

Boyd Yang reported a problem for the case that multiple threads of the same
thread group are waiting for a reponse for a permission event.
In this case it is possible that some of the threads are never woken up, even
if the response for the event has been received
(see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131822913806350&w=2).
The reason is that we are currently merging permission events if they belong to
the same thread group. But we are not prepared to wake up more than one waiter
for each event. We do
wait_event(group->fanotify_data.access_waitq, event->response ||
atomic_read(&group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm));
and after that
event->response = 0;
which is the reason that even if we woke up all waiters for the same event
some of them may see event->response being already set 0 again, then go back to
sleep and block forever.
With this patch we avoid that more than one thread is waiting for a response
by not merging permission events for the same thread group any more.

Stephane thought the perf_cpu_context::active_pmu name confusing and
suggested using 'unique_pmu' instead.
This pointer is a pointer to a 'random' pmu sharing the cpuctx
instance, therefore limiting a for_each_pmu loop to those where
cpuctx->unique_pmu matches the pmu we get a loop over unique cpuctx
instances.
The OUTPUT_ENABLE action jumps past the point in the coder where
the data_offset is set on certain rs780 cards. This worked
previously because the OUTPUT_ENABLE action is always called
immediately after the ENABLE action so the data_offset remained
set. In 6f8bbaf568c7f2c497558bfd04654c0b9841ad57
(drm/radeon/atom: initialize more atom interpretor elements to 0),
we explictly reset data_offset to 0 between atom calls which then
caused this to fail. The fix is to just skip calling the
OUTPUT_ENABLE action on the problematic chipsets. The ENABLE
action does the same thing and more. Ultimately, we could
probably drop the OUTPUT_ENABLE action all together on DCE3
asics.

After a vmalloc failure in ttm_dma_tt_alloc_page_directory(),
ttm_dma_tt_init() will call ttm_tt_destroy() to cleanup, and end up
inside the driver's unpopulate() hook when populate() has never yet
been called.
On nouveau, the first issue to be hit because of this is that
dma_address[] may be a NULL pointer. After working around this,
ttm_pool_unpopulate() may potentially hit the same issue with
the pages[] array.
It seems to make more sense to avoid calling unpopulate on already
unpopulated TTMs than to add checks to all the implementations.

The patch fixes a race between ftruncate(2), mmap-ed write and write(2):
1) An user makes a page dirty via mmap-ed write.
2) The user performs shrinking truncate(2) intended to purge the page.
3) Before fuse_do_setattr calls truncate_pagecache, the page goes to
writeback. fuse_writepage_locked fills FUSE_WRITE request and releases
the original page by end_page_writeback.
4) fuse_do_setattr() completes and successfully returns. Since now, i_mutex
is free.
5) Ordinary write(2) extends i_size back to cover the page. Note that
fuse_send_write_pages do wait for fuse writeback, but for another
page->index.
6) fuse_writepage_locked proceeds by queueing FUSE_WRITE request.
fuse_send_writepage is supposed to crop inarg->size of the request,
but it doesn't because i_size has already been extended back.
Moving end_page_writeback to the end of fuse_writepage_locked fixes the
race because now the fact that truncate_pagecache is successfully returned
infers that fuse_writepage_locked has already called end_page_writeback.
And this, in turn, infers that fuse_flush_writepages has already called
fuse_send_writepage, and the latter used valid (shrunk) i_size. write(2)
could not extend it because of i_mutex held by ftruncate(2).
Any calls to dt_alloc() need to be zeroed. This is a temporary fix, but
the allocation function itself needs to zero memory before returning
it. This is a follow up to patch 9e4012752, "of: fdt: fix memory
initialization for expanded DT" which fixed one call site but missed
another.
I'm testing SH-Mobile SDHI driver in DMA mode with a new DMA controller using
'bonnie++' and getting DMA error after which the tmio_mmc_dma.c code falls back
to PIO but all commands time out after that. It turned out that the fallback
code calls tmio_mmc_enable_dma() with RX/TX channels already freed and pointers
to them cleared, so that the function bails out early instead of clearing the
DMA bit in the CTL_DMA_ENABLE register. The regression was introduced by commit 162f43e31c5a376ec16336e5d0ac973373d54c89 (mmc: tmio: fix a deadlock).
Moving tmio_mmc_enable_dma() calls to the top of the PIO fallback code in

tool mounting isofs is likely confronted with the case of read-only
media where block layer already refuses to mount the filesystem without
MS_RDONLY set so our behavior shouldn't be anything new for it.

In collapse_huge_page() there is a race window between releasing the
mmap_sem read lock and taking the mmap_sem write lock, so find_vma() may
return NULL. So check the return value to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
A memory cgroup with (1) multiple threshold notifications and (2) at least
one threshold >=2G was not reliable. Specifically the notifications would
either not fire or would not fire in the proper order.
The __mem_cgroup_threshold() signaling logic depends on keeping 64 bit
thresholds in sorted order. mem_cgroup_usage_register_event() sorts them
with compare_thresholds(), which returns the difference of two 64 bit
thresholds as an int. If the difference is positive but has bit[31] set,
then sort() treats the difference as negative and breaks sort order.
This fix compares the two arbitrary 64 bit thresholds returning the
classic -1, 0, 1 result.
The test below sets two notifications (at 0x1000 and 0x81001000):
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
mkdir x
for x in 4096 2164264960; do

At best the current code only seems to free the leaf pagetables and
the root. If you're unlucky enough to have a large gap (like any
QEMU guest with more than 3G of memory), only the first chunk of leaf
pagetables are freed (plus the root). This is a massive memory leak.
This patch re-writes the pagetable freeing function to use a

list_first_or_null() should test whether the list is empty and return
pointer to the first entry if not in a RCU safe manner. It's broken
in several ways.
* It compares __kernel @__ptr with __rcu @__next triggering the
following sparse warning.
net/core/dev.c:4331:17: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces)
* It doesn't perform rcu_dereference*() and computes the entry address
using container_of() directly from the __rcu pointer which is
inconsitent with other rculist interface. As a result, all three
in-kernel users - net/core/dev.c, macvlan, cgroup - are buggy. They
dereference the pointer w/o going through read barrier.
* While ->next dereference passes through list_next_rcu(), the
compiler is still free to fetch ->next more than once and thus
nullify the "__ptr != __next" condition check.
Fix it by making list_first_or_null_rcu() dereference ->next directly
using ACCESS_ONCE() and then use list_entry_rcu() on it like other
rculist accessors.
v2: Paul pointed out that the compiler may fetch the pointer more than
once nullifying the condition check. ACCESS_ONCE() added on
->next dereference.

If a USB controller with XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME goes to runtime suspend,
a reset will be performed upon runtime resume. Any previously suspended
devices attached to the controller will be re-enumerated at this time.
This will cause problems, for example, if an open system call on the
device triggered the resume (the open call will fail).
Note that this change is only relevant when persist_enabled is not set
for USB devices.
This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that
contain the commit c877b3b2ad5cb9d4fe523c5496185cc328ff3ae9 "xhci: Add
reset on resume quirk for asrock p67 host".
The xHCI platform driver calls into usb_add_hcd to register the irq for
its platform device. It does not want the xHCI generic driver to
register an interrupt for it at all. The original code did that by
setting the XHCI_BROKEN_MSI quirk, which tells the xHCI driver to not
enable MSI or MSI-X for a PCI host.
Unfortunately, if CONFIG_PCI is enabled, and CONFIG_USB_DW3 is enabled,
the xHCI generic driver will attempt to register a legacy PCI interrupt
for the xHCI platform device in xhci_try_enable_msi(). This will result
in a bogus irq being registered, since the underlying device is a
platform_device, not a pci_device, and thus the pci_device->irq pointer
will be bogus.
Add a new quirk, XHCI_PLAT, so that the xHCI generic driver can
distinguish between a PCI device that can't handle MSI or MSI-X, and a
platform device that should not have its interrupts touched at all.
This quirk may be useful in the future, in case other corner cases like
this arise.
This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.9, that
contain the commit 00eed9c814cb8f281be6f0f5d8f45025dc0a97eb "USB: xhci:

Normally when we haven't implemented an alignment handler for
a load or store instruction the process will be terminated.
The alignment handler uses the DSISR (or a pseudo one) to locate
the right handler. Unfortunately ldbrx and stdbrx overlap lfs and
stfs so we incorrectly think ldbrx is an lfs and stdbrx is an
stfs.
This bug is particularly nasty - instead of terminating the
process we apply an incorrect fixup and continue on.
With more and more overlapping instructions we should stop
creating a pseudo DSISR and index using the instruction directly,
but for now add a special case to catch ldbrx/stdbrx.

At time 1, tipc_enable_bearer() first holds tipc_net_lock, and then
wants to take ptype_lock to register TIPC protocol handler into the
networking stack. But the ptype_lock has been taken by dev_add_pack()
on CPU0, so at this time the dev_add_pack() running on CPU1 has to be
busy looping.
Time 2 on CPU0:
netif_receive_skb()->recv_msg()->tipc_recv_msg()
At time 2, an incoming TIPC packet arrives at CPU0, hence
tipc_recv_msg() will be invoked. In tipc_recv_msg(), it first wants
to hold tipc_net_lock. At the moment, below scenario happens:
On CPU0, below is our sequence of taking locks:
lock(ptype_lock)->lock(tipc_net_lock)
On CPU1, our sequence of taking locks looks like:
lock(tipc_net_lock)->lock(ptype_lock)
Obviously deadlock may happen in this case.
But please note the deadlock possibly doesn't occur at all when the
first TIPC bearer is enabled. Before enable_bearer() -- running on
CPU1 does not hold ptype_lock, so the TIPC receive handler (i.e.
recv_msg()) is not registered successfully via dev_add_pack(), so
the tipc_recv_msg() cannot be called by recv_msg() even if a TIPC
message comes to CPU0. But when the second TIPC bearer is
registered, the deadlock can perhaps really happen.
To fix it, we will push the work of registering TIPC protocol
handler into workqueue context. After the change, both paths taking
ptype_lock are always in process contexts, thus, the deadlock should
never occur.

We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than

one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest

Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do
zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than
MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and
call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify

Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages
currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace
socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space.
If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier
loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume
all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to
be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets.
The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited,
use of alloc_skb() bypasses the socket wmem buffer size enforcement
while the manual call to skb_set_owner_w() maintains the socket
reference needed for the IPv6 output path.

Because of the max_addresses check attackers were able to disable privacy
extensions on an interface by creating enough autoconfigured addresses:
<http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2012/q4/292>
But the check is not actually needed: max_addresses protects the
kernel to install too many ipv6 addresses on an interface and guards
addrconf_prefix_rcv to install further addresses as soon as this limit
is reached. We only generate temporary addresses in direct response of
a new address showing up. As soon as we filled up the maximum number of
addresses of an interface, we stop installing more addresses and thus
also stop generating more temp addresses.
Even if the attacker tries to generate a lot of temporary addresses
by announcing a prefix and removing it again (lifetime == 0) we won't
install more temp addresses, because the temporary addresses do count
to the maximum number of addresses, thus we would stop installing new
autoconfigured addresses when the limit is reached.

possible).

In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return
NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing
table lookups when using subtrees.
Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found
and return this match.
Also remove unneeded NULL check.

While investigating about strange increase of retransmit rates
on hosts ~24 days after boot, Van found hystart was disabled
if ca->epoch_start was 0, as following condition is true
when tcp_time_stamp high order bit is set.
(s32)(tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) < HZ
Quoting Van :
At initialization & after every loss ca->epoch_start is set to zero so
I believe that the above line will turn off hystart as soon as the 2^31
bit is set in tcp_time_stamp & hystart will stay off for 24 days.
I think we've observed that cubic's restart is too aggressive without
hystart so this might account for the higher drop rate we observe.
