start_kernel: Add __no_stack_protector function attribute
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
start_kernel: Add __no_stack_protector function attribute
Back during the discussion of
commit a9a3ed1eff36 ("x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try")
we discussed the need for a function attribute to control the omission
of stack protectors on a per-function basis; at the time Clang had
support for no_stack_protector but GCC did not. This was fixed in
gcc-11. Now that the function attribute is available, let's start using
it.
Callers of boot_init_stack_canary need to use this function attribute
unless they're compiled with -fno-stack-protector, otherwise the canary
stored in the stack slot of the caller will differ upon the call to
boot_init_stack_canary. This will lead to a call to __stack_chk_fail()
then panic.

lib: cpu_rmap: Avoid use after free on rmap->obj array entries
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib: cpu_rmap: Avoid use after free on rmap->obj array entries
When calling irq_set_affinity_notifier() with NULL at the notify
argument, it will cause freeing of the glue pointer in the
corresponding array entry but will leave the pointer in the array. A
subsequent call to free_irq_cpu_rmap() will try to free this entry again
leading to possible use after free.
Fix that by setting NULL to the array entry and checking that we have
non-zero at the array entry when iterating over the array in
free_irq_cpu_rmap().
The current code does not suffer from this since there are no cases
where irq_set_affinity_notifier(irq, NULL) (note the NULL passed for the
notify arg) is called, followed by a call to free_irq_cpu_rmap() so we
don't hit and issue. Subsequent patches in this series excersize this
flow, hence the required fix.

x86/MCE/AMD: Use an u64 for bank_map
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/MCE/AMD: Use an u64 for bank_map
Thee maximum number of MCA banks is 64 (MAX_NR_BANKS), see
a0bc32b3cacf ("x86/mce: Increase maximum number of banks to 64").
However, the bank_map which contains a bitfield of which banks to
initialize is of type unsigned int and that overflows when those bit
numbers are >= 32, leading to UBSAN complaining correctly:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/amd.c:1365:38
shift exponent 32 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'
Change the bank_map to a u64 and use the proper BIT_ULL() macro when
modifying bits in there.

ext4: improve error handling from ext4_dirhash()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: improve error handling from ext4_dirhash()
The ext4_dirhash() will *almost* never fail, especially when the hash
tree feature was first introduced. However, with the addition of
support of encrypted, casefolded file names, that function can most
certainly fail today.
So make sure the callers of ext4_dirhash() properly check for
failures, and reflect the errors back up to their callers.

ibmvnic: Do not reset dql stats on NON_FATAL err
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ibmvnic: Do not reset dql stats on NON_FATAL err
All ibmvnic resets, make a call to netdev_tx_reset_queue() when
re-opening the device. netdev_tx_reset_queue() resets the num_queued
and num_completed byte counters. These stats are used in Byte Queue
Limit (BQL) algorithms. The difference between these two stats tracks
the number of bytes currently sitting on the physical NIC. ibmvnic
increases the number of queued bytes though calls to
netdev_tx_sent_queue() in the drivers xmit function. When, VIOS reports
that it is done transmitting bytes, the ibmvnic device increases the
number of completed bytes through calls to netdev_tx_completed_queue().
It is important to note that the driver batches its transmit calls and
num_queued is increased every time that an skb is added to the next
batch, not necessarily when the batch is sent to VIOS for transmission.
Unlike other reset types, a NON FATAL reset will not flush the sub crq
tx buffers. Therefore, it is possible for the batched skb array to be
partially full. So if there is call to netdev_tx_reset_queue() when
re-opening the device, the value of num_queued (0) would not account
for the skb's that are currently batched. Eventually, when the batch
is sent to VIOS, the call to netdev_tx_completed_queue() would increase
num_completed to a value greater than the num_queued. This causes a
BUG_ON crash:

HID: multitouch: Correct devm device reference for hidinput input_dev name
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: multitouch: Correct devm device reference for hidinput input_dev name
Reference the HID device rather than the input device for the devm
allocation of the input_dev name. Referencing the input_dev would lead to a
use-after-free when the input_dev was unregistered and subsequently fires a
uevent that depends on the name. At the point of firing the uevent, the
name would be freed by devres management.
Use devm_kasprintf to simplify the logic for allocating memory and
formatting the input_dev name string.

i2c: rtl9300: ensure data length is within supported range
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: rtl9300: ensure data length is within supported range
Add an explicit check for the xfer length to 'rtl9300_i2c_config_xfer'
to ensure the data length isn't within the supported range. In
particular a data length of 0 is not supported by the hardware and
causes unintended or destructive behaviour.
This limitation becomes obvious when looking at the register
documentation [1]. 4 bits are reserved for DATA_WIDTH and the value
of these 4 bits is used as N + 1, allowing a data length range of
1 <= len <= 16.
Affected by this is the SMBus Quick Operation which works with a data
length of 0. Passing 0 as the length causes an underflow of the value
due to:
(len - 1) & 0xf
and effectively specifying a transfer length of 16 via the registers.
This causes a 16-byte write operation instead of a Quick Write. For
example, on SFP modules without write-protected EEPROM this soft-bricks
them by overwriting some initial bytes.
For completeness, also add a quirk for the zero length.

ceph: fix race condition validating r_parent before applying state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix race condition validating r_parent before applying state
Add validation to ensure the cached parent directory inode matches the
directory info in MDS replies. This prevents client-side race conditions
where concurrent operations (e.g. rename) cause r_parent to become stale
between request initiation and reply processing, which could lead to
applying state changes to incorrect directory inodes.
[ idryomov: folded a kerneldoc fixup and a follow-up fix from Alex to
move CEPH_CAP_PIN reference when r_parent is updated:
When the parent directory lock is not held, req->r_parent can become
stale and is updated to point to the correct inode. However, the
associated CEPH_CAP_PIN reference was not being adjusted. The
CEPH_CAP_PIN is a reference on an inode that is tracked for
accounting purposes. Moving this pin is important to keep the
accounting balanced. When the pin was not moved from the old parent
to the new one, it created two problems: The reference on the old,
stale parent was never released, causing a reference leak.
A reference for the new parent was never acquired, creating the risk
of a reference underflow later in ceph_mdsc_release_request(). This
patch corrects the logic by releasing the pin from the old parent and
acquiring it for the new parent when r_parent is switched. This
ensures reference accounting stays balanced. ]

dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: Fix DT error handling for num-channels/ees
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: Fix DT error handling for num-channels/ees
When we don't have a clock specified in the device tree, we have no way to
ensure the BAM is on. This is often the case for remotely-controlled or
remotely-powered BAM instances. In this case, we need to read num-channels
from the DT to have all the necessary information to complete probing.
However, at the moment invalid device trees without clock and without
num-channels still continue probing, because the error handling is missing
return statements. The driver will then later try to read the number of
channels from the registers. This is unsafe, because it relies on boot
firmware and lucky timing to succeed. Unfortunately, the lack of proper
error handling here has been abused for several Qualcomm SoCs upstream,
causing early boot crashes in several situations [1, 2].
Avoid these early crashes by erroring out when any of the required DT
properties are missing. Note that this will break some of the existing DTs
upstream (mainly BAM instances related to the crypto engine). However,
clearly these DTs have never been tested properly, since the error in the
kernel log was just ignored. It's safer to disable the crypto engine for
these broken DTBs.

genetlink: fix genl_bind() invoking bind() after -EPERM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
genetlink: fix genl_bind() invoking bind() after -EPERM
Per family bind/unbind callbacks were introduced to allow families
to track multicast group consumer presence, e.g. to start or stop
producing events depending on listeners.
However, in genl_bind() the bind() callback was invoked even if
capability checks failed and ret was set to -EPERM. This means that
callbacks could run on behalf of unauthorized callers while the
syscall still returned failure to user space.
Fix this by only invoking bind() after "if (ret) break;" check
i.e. after permission checks have succeeded.

unregister_netdevice: waiting for vcan0 to become free. Usage count = 2
problem, for j1939 protocol did not have NETDEV_UNREGISTER notification
handler for undoing changes made by j1939_sk_bind().
Commit 25fe97cb7620 ("can: j1939: move j1939_priv_put() into sk_destruct
callback") expects that a call to j1939_priv_put() can be unconditionally
delayed until j1939_sk_sock_destruct() is called. But we need to call
j1939_priv_put() against an extra ref held by j1939_sk_bind() call
(as a part of undoing changes made by j1939_sk_bind()) as soon as
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notification fires (i.e. before j1939_sk_sock_destruct()
is called via j1939_sk_release()). Otherwise, the extra ref on "struct
j1939_priv" held by j1939_sk_bind() call prevents "struct net_device" from
dropping the usage count to 1; making it impossible for

spi: microchip-core-qspi: stop checking viability of op->max_freq in supports_op callback
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: microchip-core-qspi: stop checking viability of op->max_freq in supports_op callback
In commit 13529647743d9 ("spi: microchip-core-qspi: Support per spi-mem
operation frequency switches") the logic for checking the viability of
op->max_freq in mchp_coreqspi_setup_clock() was copied into
mchp_coreqspi_supports_op(). Unfortunately, op->max_freq is not valid
when this function is called during probe but is instead zero.
Accordingly, baud_rate_val is calculated to be INT_MAX due to division
by zero, causing probe of the attached memory device to fail.
Seemingly spi-microchip-core-qspi was the only driver that had such a
modification made to its supports_op callback when the per_op_freq
capability was added, so just remove it to restore prior functionality.

mm/damon/reclaim: avoid divide-by-zero in damon_reclaim_apply_parameters()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/reclaim: avoid divide-by-zero in damon_reclaim_apply_parameters()
When creating a new scheme of DAMON_RECLAIM, the calculation of
'min_age_region' uses 'aggr_interval' as the divisor, which may lead to
division-by-zero errors. Fix it by directly returning -EINVAL when such a
case occurs.

net: phy: transfer phy_config_inband() locking responsibility to phylink
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: transfer phy_config_inband() locking responsibility to phylink
Problem description
===================
Lockdep reports a possible circular locking dependency (AB/BA) between
&pl->state_mutex and &phy->lock, as follows.
phylink_resolve() // acquires &pl->state_mutex
-> phylink_major_config()
-> phy_config_inband() // acquires &pl->phydev->lock
whereas all the other call sites where &pl->state_mutex and
&pl->phydev->lock have the locking scheme reversed. Everywhere else,
&pl->phydev->lock is acquired at the top level, and &pl->state_mutex at
the lower level. A clear example is phylink_bringup_phy().
The outlier is the newly introduced phy_config_inband() and the existing
lock order is the correct one. To understand why it cannot be the other
way around, it is sufficient to consider phylink_phy_change(), phylink's
callback from the PHY device's phy->phy_link_change() virtual method,
invoked by the PHY state machine.
phy_link_up() and phy_link_down(), the (indirect) callers of
phylink_phy_change(), are called with &phydev->lock acquired.
Then phylink_phy_change() acquires its own &pl->state_mutex, to
serialize changes made to its pl->phy_state and pl->link_config.
So all other instances of &pl->state_mutex and &phydev->lock must be
consistent with this order.
Problem impact
==============
I think the kernel runs a serious deadlock risk if an existing
phylink_resolve() thread, which results in a phy_config_inband() call,
is concurrent with a phy_link_up() or phy_link_down() call, which will
deadlock on &pl->state_mutex in phylink_phy_change(). Practically
speaking, the impact may be limited by the slow speed of the medium
auto-negotiation protocol, which makes it unlikely for the current state
to still be unresolved when a new one is detected, but I think the
problem is there. Nonetheless, the problem was discovered using lockdep.
Proposed solution
=================
Practically speaking, the phy_config_inband() requirement of having
phydev->lock acquired must transfer to the caller (phylink is the only
caller). There, it must bubble up until immediately before
&pl->state_mutex is acquired, for the cases where that takes place.
Solution details, considerations, notes
=======================================
This is the phy_config_inband() call graph:
sfp_upstream_ops :: connect_phy()
|
v
phylink_sfp_connect_phy()
|
v
phylink_sfp_config_phy()
|
| sfp_upstream_ops :: module_insert()
| |
| v
| phylink_sfp_module_insert()
| |
| | sfp_upstream_ops :: module_start()
| | |
| | v
| | phylink_sfp_module_start()
| | |
| v v
| phylink_sfp_config_optical()
phylink_start() | |
| phylink_resume() v v
| | phylink_sfp_set_config()
| | |
v v v
phylink_mac_initial_config()
| phylink_resolve()
| | phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set()
v v v
phylink_major_config()
|
v
phy_config_inband()
phylink_major_config() caller #1, phylink_mac_initial_config(), does not
acquire &pl->state_mutex nor do its callers. It must acquire
&pl->phydev->lock prior to calling phylink_major_config().
phylink_major_config() caller #2, phylink_resolve() acquires
&pl->state_mutex, thus also needs to acquire &pl->phydev->lock.
phylink_major_config() caller #3, phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set(), is
completely uninteresting, because it only call

We can reproduce the warning by following the steps below:
1. echo 8 >> set_event_notrace_pid. Let tr->filtered_pids owns one pid
and register sched_switch tracepoint.
2. echo ' ' >> set_event_pid, and perform fault injection during chunk
allocation of trace_pid_list_alloc. Let pid_list with no pid and
assign to tr->filtered_pids.
3. echo ' ' >> set_event_pid. Let pid_list is NULL and assign to
tr->filtered_pids.
4. echo 9 >> set_event_pid, will trigger the double register
sched_switch tracepoint warning.
The reason is that syzkaller injects a fault into the chunk allocation
in trace_pid_list_alloc, causing a failure in trace_pid_list_set, which
may trigger double register of the same tracepoint. This only occurs
when the system is about to crash, but to suppress this warning, let's
add failure handling logic to trace_pid_list_set.

tcp_bpf: Call sk_msg_free() when tcp_bpf_send_verdict() fails to allocate psock->cork.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp_bpf: Call sk_msg_free() when tcp_bpf_send_verdict() fails to allocate psock->cork.
syzbot reported the splat below. [0]
The repro does the following:
1. Load a sk_msg prog that calls bpf_msg_cork_bytes(msg, cork_bytes)
2. Attach the prog to a SOCKMAP
3. Add a socket to the SOCKMAP
4. Activate fault injection
5. Send data less than cork_bytes
At 5., the data is carried over to the next sendmsg() as it is
smaller than the cork_bytes specified by bpf_msg_cork_bytes().
Then, tcp_bpf_send_verdict() tries to allocate psock->cork to hold
the data, but this fails silently due to fault injection + __GFP_NOWARN.
If the allocation fails, we need to revert the sk->sk_forward_alloc
change done by sk_msg_alloc().
Let's call sk_msg_free() when tcp_bpf_send_verdict fails to allocate
psock->cork.
The "*copied" also needs to be updated such that a proper error can
be returned to the caller, sendmsg. It fails to allocate psock->cork.
Nothing has been corked so far, so this patch simply sets "*copied"
to 0.
