commit d7d824966530acfe32b94d1ed672e6fe1638cd68 upstream.

When changing a file's acl mask, btrfs_set_acl() will first set the
group bits of i_mode to the value of the mask, and only then set the
actual extended attribute representing the new acl.

If the second part fails (due to lack of space, for example) and the
file had no acl attribute to begin with, the system will from now on
assume that the mask permission bits are actual group permission bits,
potentially granting access to the wrong users.

Prevent this by restoring the original mode bits if __btrfs_set_acl
fails.

commit 1eb643d02b21412e603b42cdd96010a2ac31c05f upstream.

dax_writeback_mapping_range() fails to update iteration index when
searching radix tree for entries needing cache flushing.  Thus each
pagevec worth of entries is searched starting from the start which is
inefficient and prone to livelocks.  Update index properly.

When CONFIG_ELF_CORE is disabled, we get a harmless warning in the compat
version of binfmt_elf:

fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c:58:13: error: 'cputime_to_compat_timeval' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

This was addressed in mainline Linux as part of a larger rework with commit
cd19c364b313 ("fs/binfmt: Convert obsolete cputime type to nsecs").

For 4.9 and earlier, this just shuts up the warning by adding an #ifdef
around the function definition.

commit ab4949640d6674b617b314ad3c2c00353304bab9 upstream.

In file included from fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:8:0:
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c: In function 'leaf_item_bottle.isra.3':
fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.h:1279:13: error: '*((void *)&amp;n_ih+8).v' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  v2-&gt;v = (v2-&gt;v &amp; cpu_to_le64(15ULL &lt;&lt; 60)) | cpu_to_le64(offset);
           ~~^~~
fs/reiserfs/reiserfs.h:1279:13: error: '*((void *)&amp;n_ih+8).v' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  v2-&gt;v = (v2-&gt;v &amp; cpu_to_le64(15ULL &lt;&lt; 60)) | cpu_to_le64(offset);

This happens because the offset/type pair that is stored in
ih.key.u.k_offset_v2 is actually uninitialized when we call
set_le_ih_k_offset() and set_le_ih_k_type(). After we have called both,
all data is correct, but the first of the two reads uninitialized data
for the type field and writes it back before it gets overwritten.

This works around the warning by initializing the k_offset_v2 through
the slightly larger memcpy().

<title>btrfs: Fix possible off-by-one in btrfs_search_path_in_tree</title>

[ Upstream commit c8bcbfbd239ed60a6562964b58034ac8a25f4c31 ]

The name char array passed to btrfs_search_path_in_tree is of size
BTRFS_INO_LOOKUP_PATH_MAX (4080). So the actual accessible char indexes
are in the range of [0, 4079]. Currently the code uses the define but this
represents an off-by-one.

Implications:

Size of btrfs_ioctl_ino_lookup_args is 4096, so the new byte will be
written to extra space, not some padding that could be provided by the
allocator.

btrfs-progs store the arguments on stack, but kernel does own copy of
the ioctl buffer and the off-by-one overwrite does not affect userspace,
but the ending 0 might be lost.

Kernel ioctl buffer is allocated dynamically so we're overwriting
somebody else's memory, and the ioctl is privileged if args.objectid is
not 256. Which is in most cases, but resolving a subvolume stored in
another directory will trigger that path.

Before this patch the buffer was one byte larger, but then the -1 was
not added.

[ Upstream commit c8bcbfbd239ed60a6562964b58034ac8a25f4c31 ]

The name char array passed to btrfs_search_path_in_tree is of size
BTRFS_INO_LOOKUP_PATH_MAX (4080). So the actual accessible char indexes
are in the range of [0, 4079]. Currently the code uses the define but this
represents an off-by-one.

Implications:

Size of btrfs_ioctl_ino_lookup_args is 4096, so the new byte will be
written to extra space, not some padding that could be provided by the
allocator.

btrfs-progs store the arguments on stack, but kernel does own copy of
the ioctl buffer and the off-by-one overwrite does not affect userspace,
but the ending 0 might be lost.

Kernel ioctl buffer is allocated dynamically so we're overwriting
somebody else's memory, and the ioctl is privileged if args.objectid is
not 256. Which is in most cases, but resolving a subvolume stored in
another directory will trigger that path.

Before this patch the buffer was one byte larger, but then the -1 was
not added.

commit c0eb027e5aef70b71e5a38ee3e264dc0b497f343 upstream.

Normal pathname lookup doesn't allow empty pathnames, but using
AT_EMPTY_PATH (with name_to_handle_at() or fstatat(), for example) you
can trigger an empty pathname lookup.

And not only is the RCU lookup in that case entirely unnecessary
(because we'll obviously immediately finalize the end result), it is
actively wrong.

Why? An empth path is a special case that will return the original
'dirfd' dentry - and that dentry may not actually be RCU-free'd,
resulting in a potential use-after-free if we were to initialize the
path lazily under the RCU read lock and depend on complete_walk()
finalizing the dentry.

Found by syzkaller and KASAN.
