jfs: fix readdir cookie incompatibility with NFSv4

2013-09-08T05:09:57+00:00

commit 44512449c0ab368889dd13ae0031fba74ee7e1d2 upstream.

NFSv4 reserves readdir cookie values 0-2 for special entries (. and ..),
but jfs allows a value of 2 for a non-special entry. This incompatibility
can result in the nfs client reporting a readdir loop.

This patch doesn't change the value stored internally, but adds one to
the value exposed to the iterate method.

SCSI: sg: Fix user memory corruption when SG_IO is interrupted by a signal

2013-08-29T16:47:39+00:00

commit 35dc248383bbab0a7203fca4d722875bc81ef091 upstream.

There is a nasty bug in the SCSI SG_IO ioctl that in some circumstances
leads to one process writing data into the address space of some other
random unrelated process if the ioctl is interrupted by a signal.
What happens is the following:

 - A process issues an SG_IO ioctl with direction DXFER_FROM_DEV (ie the
   underlying SCSI command will transfer data from the SCSI device to
   the buffer provided in the ioctl)

 - Before the command finishes, a signal is sent to the process waiting
   in the ioctl.  This will end up waking up the sg_ioctl() code:

		result = wait_event_interruptible(sfp->read_wait,
			(srp_done(sfp, srp) || sdp->detached));

   but neither srp_done() nor sdp->detached is true, so we end up just
   setting srp->orphan and returning to userspace:

		srp->orphan = 1;
		write_unlock_irq(&sfp->rq_list_lock);
		return result;	/* -ERESTARTSYS because signal hit process */

   At this point the original process is done with the ioctl and
   blithely goes ahead handling the signal, reissuing the ioctl, etc.

 - Eventually, the SCSI command issued by the first ioctl finishes and
   ends up in sg_rq_end_io().  At the end of that function, we run through:

	write_lock_irqsave(&sfp->rq_list_lock, iflags);
	if (unlikely(srp->orphan)) {
		if (sfp->keep_orphan)
			srp->sg_io_owned = 0;
		else
			done = 0;
	}
	srp->done = done;
	write_unlock_irqrestore(&sfp->rq_list_lock, iflags);

	if (likely(done)) {
		/* Now wake up any sg_read() that is waiting for this
		 * packet.
		 */
		wake_up_interruptible(&sfp->read_wait);
		kill_fasync(&sfp->async_qp, SIGPOLL, POLL_IN);
		kref_put(&sfp->f_ref, sg_remove_sfp);
	} else {
		INIT_WORK(&srp->ew.work, sg_rq_end_io_usercontext);
		schedule_work(&srp->ew.work);
	}

   Since srp->orphan *is* set, we set done to 0 (assuming the
   userspace app has not set keep_orphan via an SG_SET_KEEP_ORPHAN
   ioctl), and therefore we end up scheduling sg_rq_end_io_usercontext()
   to run in a workqueue.

 - In workqueue context we go through sg_rq_end_io_usercontext() ->
   sg_finish_rem_req() -> blk_rq_unmap_user() -> ... ->
   bio_uncopy_user() -> __bio_copy_iov() -> copy_to_user().

   The key point here is that we are doing copy_to_user() on a
   workqueue -- that is, we're on a kernel thread with current->mm
   equal to whatever random previous user process was scheduled before
   this kernel thread.  So we end up copying whatever data the SCSI
   command returned to the virtual address of the buffer passed into
   the original ioctl, but it's quite likely we do this copying into a
   different address space!

As suggested by James Bottomley ,
add a check for current->mm (which is NULL if we're on a kernel thread
without a real userspace address space) in bio_uncopy_user(), and skip
the copy if we're on a kernel thread.

There's no reason that I can think of for any caller of bio_uncopy_user()
to want to do copying on a kernel thread with a random active userspace
address space.

Huge thanks to Costa Sapuntzakis  for the
original pointer to this bug in the sg code.

nilfs2: fix issue with counting number of bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection

2013-08-29T16:47:37+00:00

commit 4bf93b50fd04118ac7f33a3c2b8a0a1f9fa80bc9 upstream.

Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for
BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case.

The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as
complete() function was called (or will be called) because
nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
times set to sb_nbio:

  do {
      wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
  } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);

Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
same number of times for the same sb_bio_event.  Otherwise,
wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

VFS: collect_mounts() should return an ERR_PTR

commit 52e220d357a38cb29fa2e29f34ed94c1d66357f4 upstream.

This should actually be returning an ERR_PTR on error instead of NULL.
That was how it was designed and all the callers expect it.

[AV: actually, that's what "VFS: Make clone_mnt()/copy_tree()/collect_mounts()
return errors" missed - originally collect_mounts() was expected to return
NULL on failure]

jbd2: Fix use after free after error in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata()

2013-08-20T15:43:05+00:00

commit 91aa11fae1cf8c2fd67be0609692ea9741cdcc43 upstream.

When jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() returns error,
__ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() stops the handle. However callers of this
function do not count with that fact and still happily used now freed
handle. This use after free can result in various issues but very likely
we oops soon.

The motivation of adding __ext4_journal_stop() into
__ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() in commit 9ea7a0df seems to be only to
improve error reporting. So replace __ext4_journal_stop() with
ext4_journal_abort_handle() which was there before that commit and add
WARN_ON_ONCE() to dump stack to provide useful information.

Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner cases

2013-08-20T15:43:05+00:00

commit 2b047252d087be7f2ba088b4933cd904f92e6fce upstream.

Ben Tebulin reported:

 "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
  repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
  failures.  This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
  reproduced stably on two independent laptops.  Git mailing list ran
  out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"

and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f97 ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").

That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.

The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered.  It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580b7 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96ce0 ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.

The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB.  And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.

Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.

This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler.  And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.

Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

fs/proc/task_mmu.c: fix buffer overflow in add_page_map()

2013-08-20T15:43:02+00:00

commit 8c8296223f3abb142be8fc31711b18a704c0e7d8 upstream.

Recently we met quite a lot of random kernel panic issues after enabling
CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR.  After debuggind we found this has something
to do with following bug in pagemap:

In struct pagemapread:

  struct pagemapread {
      int pos, len;
      pagemap_entry_t *buffer;
      bool v2;
  };

pos is number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer, but len is the size of
buffer, it is a mistake to compare pos and len in add_page_map() for
checking buffer is full or not, and this can lead to buffer overflow and
random kernel panic issue.

Correct len to be total number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer.

reiserfs: fix deadlock in umount

2013-08-15T05:59:10+00:00

commit 672fe15d091ce76d6fb98e489962e9add7c1ba4c upstream.

Since remove_proc_entry() started to wait for IO in progress (i.e.
since 2007 or so), the locking in fs/reiserfs/proc.c became wrong;
if procfs read happens between the moment when umount() locks the
victim superblock and removal of /proc/fs/reiserfs//*,
we'll get a deadlock - read will wait for s_umount (in sget(),
called by r_start()), while umount will wait in remove_proc_entry()
for that read to finish, holding s_umount all along.

Fortunately, the same change allows a much simpler race avoidance -
all we need to do is remove the procfs entries in the very beginning
of reiserfs ->kill_sb(); that'll guarantee that pointer to superblock
will remain valid for the duration for procfs IO, so we don't need
sget() to keep the sucker alive.  As the matter of fact, we can
get rid of the home-grown iterator completely, and use single_open()
instead.

debugfs: debugfs_remove_recursive() must not rely on list_empty(d_subdirs)

2013-08-15T05:59:10+00:00

commit 776164c1faac4966ab14418bb0922e1820da1d19 upstream.

debugfs_remove_recursive() is wrong,

1. it wrongly assumes that !list_empty(d_subdirs) means that this
   dir should be removed.

   This is not that bad by itself, but:

2. if d_subdirs does not becomes empty after __debugfs_remove()
   it gives up and silently fails, it doesn't even try to remove
   other entries.

   However ->d_subdirs can be non-empty because it still has the
   already deleted !debugfs_positive() entries.

3. simple_release_fs() is called even if __debugfs_remove() fails.

Suppose we have

	dir1/
		dir2/
			file2
		file1

and someone opens dir1/dir2/file2.

Now, debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1/dir2) succeeds, and dir1/dir2 goes
away.

But debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1) silently fails and doesn't remove
this directory. Because it tries to delete (the already deleted)
dir1/dir2/file2 again and then fails due to "Avoid infinite loop"
logic.

Test-case:

	#!/bin/sh

	cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
	echo 'p:probe/sigprocmask sigprocmask' >> kprobe_events
	sleep 1000 < events/probe/sigprocmask/id &
	echo -n >| kprobe_events

	[ -d events/probe ] && echo "ERR!! failed to rm probe"

And after that it is not possible to create another probe entry.

With this patch debugfs_remove_recursive() skips !debugfs_positive()
files although this is not strictly needed. The most important change
is that it does not try to make ->d_subdirs empty, it simply scans
the whole list(s) recursively and removes as much as possible.
