[ Upstream commit 7ce2367254e84753bceb07327aaf5c953cfce117 ]

Syzkaller spotted an old bug which leads to reading skb beyond tail by 4
bytes on vlan tagged packets.
This is caused because skb_vlan_tagged_multi() did not check
skb_headlen.

commit 2e898e4c0a3897ccd434adac5abb8330194f527b upstream.

lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if
the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a
process leaves its memcg for a new one that has
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set.

unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if
the given inode is switching writeback domains.  Switches occur when
enough writes are issued from a new domain.

This existing pattern is thus suspicious:
    lock_page_memcg(page);
    unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &amp;locked);
    ...
    unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked);
    unlock_page_memcg(page);

If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while
still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock.  This suggests the
possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg().

    truncate
    __cancel_dirty_page
    lock_page_memcg
    unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin
    unlocked_inode_to_wb_end
    &lt;interrupts mistakenly enabled&gt;
                                    &lt;interrupt&gt;
                                    end_page_writeback
                                    test_clear_page_writeback
                                    lock_page_memcg
                                    &lt;deadlock&gt;
    unlock_page_memcg

Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible
because we don't mix cgroup writeback (a cgroupv2 feature) and
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate (a cgroupv1 feature).

If the kernel is hacked to always claim inode switching and memcg
moving_account, then this script triggers lockup in less than a minute:

  cd /mnt/cgroup/memory
  mkdir a b
  echo 1 &gt; a/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
  echo 1 &gt; b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
  (
    echo $BASHPID &gt; a/cgroup.procs
    while true; do
      dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/big bs=1M count=256
    done
  ) &amp;
  while true; do
    sync
  done &amp;
  sleep 1h &amp;
  SLEEP=$!
  while true; do
    echo $SLEEP &gt; a/cgroup.procs
    echo $SLEEP &gt; b/cgroup.procs
  done

The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any
reason to modify the kernel.  I suggest we should to prevent future
surprises.  And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our
environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.
Stable 4.4 has minor conflicts applying this patch.  For a clean 4.4 patch

commit 6de0b13cc0b4ba10e98a9263d7a83b940720b77a upstream.

When size is negative, calling memset will make segment fault.
Declare the size as type u32 to keep memset safe.

size in struct hid_report is unsigned, fix return type of
hid_report_len to u32.

<title>tty: make n_tty_read() always abort if hangup is in progress</title>

commit 28b0f8a6962a24ed21737578f3b1b07424635c9e upstream.

A tty is hung up by __tty_hangup() setting file-&gt;f_op to
hung_up_tty_fops, which is skipped on ttys whose write operation isn't
tty_write().  This means that, for example, /dev/console whose write
op is redirected_tty_write() is never actually marked hung up.

Because n_tty_read() uses the hung up status to decide whether to
abort the waiting readers, the lack of hung-up marking can lead to the
following scenario.

 1. A session contains two processes.  The leader and its child.  The
    child ignores SIGHUP.

 2. The leader exits and starts disassociating from the controlling
    terminal (/dev/console).

 3. __tty_hangup() skips setting f_op to hung_up_tty_fops.

 4. SIGHUP is delivered and ignored.

 5. tty_ldisc_hangup() is invoked.  It wakes up the waits which should
    clear the read lockers of tty-&gt;ldisc_sem.

 6. The reader wakes up but because tty_hung_up_p() is false, it
    doesn't abort and goes back to sleep while read-holding
    tty-&gt;ldisc_sem.

 7. The leader progresses to tty_ldisc_lock() in tty_ldisc_hangup()
    and is now stuck in D sleep indefinitely waiting for
    tty-&gt;ldisc_sem.

The following is Alan's explanation on why some ttys aren't hung up.

 http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171101170908.6ad08580@alans-desktop

 1. It broke the serial consoles because they would hang up and close
    down the hardware. With tty_port that *should* be fixable properly
    for any cases remaining.

 2. The console layer was (and still is) completely broken and doens't
    refcount properly. So if you turn on console hangups it breaks (as
    indeed does freeing consoles and half a dozen other things).

As neither can be fixed quickly, this patch works around the problem
by introducing a new flag, TTY_HUPPING, which is used solely to tell
n_tty_read() that hang-up is in progress for the console and the
readers should be aborted regardless of the hung-up status of the
device.

The following is a sample hung task warning caused by this issue.

  INFO: task agetty:2662 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

commit f2d3b2e8759a5833df6f022e42df2d581e6d843c upstream.

One of the major improvement of SMCCC v1.1 is that it only clobbers
the first 4 registers, both on 32 and 64bit. This means that it
becomes very easy to provide an inline version of the SMC call
primitive, and avoid performing a function call to stash the
registers that would otherwise be clobbered by SMCCC v1.0.

commit ded4c39e93f3b72968fdb79baba27f3b83dad34c upstream.

Function identifiers are a 32bit, unsigned quantity. But we never
tell so to the compiler, resulting in the following:

 4ac:   b26187e0        mov     x0, #0xffffffff80000001

We thus rely on the firmware narrowing it for us, which is not
always a reasonable expectation.

commit e78eef554a912ef6c1e0bbf97619dafbeae3339f upstream.

Since PSCI 1.0 allows the SMCCC version to be (indirectly) probed,
let's do that at boot time, and expose the version of the calling
convention as part of the psci_ops structure.

commit 09a8d6d48499f93e2abde691f5800081cd858726 upstream.

In order to call into the firmware to apply workarounds, it is
useful to find out whether we're using HVC or SMC. Let's expose
this through the psci_ops.

commit 6167ec5c9145cdf493722dfd80a5d48bafc4a18a upstream.

A new feature of SMCCC 1.1 is that it offers firmware-based CPU
workarounds. In particular, SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 provides
BP hardening for CVE-2017-5715.

If the host has some mitigation for this issue, report that
we deal with it using SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1, as we apply the
host workaround on every guest exit.

commit 09e6be12effdb33bf7210c8867bbd213b66a499e upstream.

The new SMC Calling Convention (v1.1) allows for a reduced overhead
when calling into the firmware, and provides a new feature discovery
mechanism.

Make it visible to KVM guests.
