mm/pagewalk.c: report holes in hugetlb ranges

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit 373c4557d2aa362702c4c2d41288fb1e54990b7c upstream.

This matters at least for the mincore syscall, which will otherwise copy
uninitialized memory from the page allocator to userspace.  It is
probably also a correctness error for /proc/$pid/pagemap, but I haven't
tested that.

Removing the `walk->hugetlb_entry` condition in walk_hugetlb_range() has
no effect because the caller already checks for that.

This only reports holes in hugetlb ranges to callers who have specified
a hugetlb_entry callback.

This issue was found using an AFL-based fuzzer.

v2:
 - don't crash on ->pte_hole==NULL (Andrew Morton)
 - add Cc stable (Andrew Morton)

Changed for 4.4/4.9 stable backport:
 - fix up conflict in the huge_pte_offset() call

coda: fix 'kernel memory exposure attempt' in fsync

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit d337b66a4c52c7b04eec661d86c2ef6e168965a2 upstream.

When an application called fsync on a file in Coda a small request with
just the file identifier was allocated, but the declared length was set
to the size of union of all possible upcall requests.

This bug has been around for a very long time and is now caught by the
extra checking in usercopy that was introduced in Linux-4.8.

The exposure happens when the Coda cache manager process reads the fsync
upcall request at which point it is killed. As a result there is nobody
servicing any further upcalls, trapping any processes that try to access
the mounted Coda filesystem.

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit d135e5750205a21a212a19dbb05aeb339e2cbea7 upstream.

In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred.  We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.

The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes.  However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.

The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

ipmi: fix unsigned long underflow

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit 392a17b10ec4320d3c0e96e2a23ebaad1123b989 upstream.

When I set the timeout to a specific value such as 500ms, the timeout
event will not happen in time due to the overflow in function
check_msg_timeout:
...
	ent->timeout -= timeout_period;
	if (ent->timeout > 0)
		return;
...

The type of timeout_period is long, but ent->timeout is unsigned long.
This patch makes the type consistent.

ocfs2: should wait dio before inode lock in ocfs2_setattr()

ocfs2: fix cluster hang after a node dies

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit 1c01967116a678fed8e2c68a6ab82abc8effeddc upstream.

When a node dies, other live nodes have to choose a new master for an
existed lock resource mastered by the dead node.

As for ocfs2/dlm implementation, this is done by function -
dlm_move_lockres_to_recovery_list which marks those lock rsources as
DLM_LOCK_RES_RECOVERING and manages them via a list from which DLM
changes lock resource's master later.

So without invoking dlm_move_lockres_to_recovery_list, no master will be
choosed after dlm recovery accomplishment since no lock resource can be
found through ::resource list.

What's worse is that if DLM_LOCK_RES_RECOVERING is not marked for lock
resources mastered a dead node, it will break up synchronization among
nodes.

So invoke dlm_move_lockres_to_recovery_list again.

Fixs: 'commit ee8f7fcbe638 ("ocfs2/dlm: continue to purge recovery lockres when recovery master goes down")'

dmaengine: dmatest: warn user when dma test times out

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit a9df21e34b422f79d9a9fa5c3eff8c2a53491be6 upstream.

Commit adfa543e7314 ("dmatest: don't use set_freezable_with_signal()")
introduced a bug (that is in fact documented by the patch commit text)
that leaves behind a dangling pointer. Since the done_wait structure is
allocated on the stack, future invocations to the DMATEST can produce
undesirable results (e.g., corrupted spinlocks). Ideally, this would be
cleaned up in the thread handler, but at the very least, the kernel
is left in a very precarious scenario that can lead to some long debug
sessions when the crash comes later.

serial: 8250_fintek: Fix finding base_port with activated SuperIO

2017-11-24T07:33:42+00:00

commit fd97e66c5529046e989a0879c3bb58fddb592c71 upstream.

The SuperIO will be configured at boot time by BIOS, but some BIOS
will not deactivate the SuperIO when the end of configuration. It'll
lead to mismatch for pdata->base_port in probe_setup_port(). So we'll
deactivate all SuperIO before activate special base_port in
fintek_8250_enter_key().

Tested on iBASE MI802.

Commit 348f9bb31c56 ("serial: omap: Fix RTS handling") sought to enable
auto RTS upon manual RTS assertion and disable it on deassertion.
However it seems the latter was done incorrectly, it clears all bits in
the Extended Features Register *except* auto RTS.
