commit d049f74f2dbe71354d43d393ac3a188947811348 upstream.

The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean.  Most users of the
function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than
SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0).  The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a
protected state.  Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two
places fixed in this patch.

Wrong logic:
    if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ }

Correct logic:
    if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ }

Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a
user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to
that user.  (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.)

The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(),
which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

CVE-2013-2929

<title>perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer</title>

commit 12ae030d54ef250706da5642fc7697cc60ad0df7 upstream.

The current default perf paranoid level is "1" which has
"perf_paranoid_kernel()" return false, and giving any operations that
use it, access to normal users. Unfortunately, this includes function
tracing and normal users should not be allowed to enable function
tracing by default.

The proper level is defined at "-1" (full perf access), which
"perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" will only give access to. Use that
check instead for enabling function tracing.

<title>sched, idle: Fix the idle polling state logic</title>

commit ea8117478918a4734586d35ff530721b682425be upstream.

Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop")
regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule
interrupts.

The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an
inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86:
default polling, generic: default !polling).

Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few
new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit
usage).

Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an
immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will
end up being slightly different.

The out-of-bounds access happens on 'parser-&gt;buffer[parser-&gt;idx] = 0;'

Although the crash happened in ftrace_regex_open() the real bug
occurred in trace_get_user() where there's an incrementation to
parser-&gt;idx without a check against the size. The way it is triggered
is if userspace sends in 128 characters (EVENT_BUF_SIZE + 1), the loop
that reads the last character stores it and then breaks out because
there is no more characters. Then the last character is read to determine
what to do next, and the index is incremented without checking size.

Then the caller of trace_get_user() usually nulls out the last character
with a zero, but since the index is equal to the size, it writes a nul
character after the allocated space, which can corrupt memory.

Luckily, only root user has write access to this file.

<title>perf: Fix perf ring buffer memory ordering</title>

<id>bf378d341e4873ed928dc3c636252e6895a21f50</id>
<content type='text'>
The PPC64 people noticed a missing memory barrier and crufty old
comments in the perf ring buffer code. So update all the comments and
add the missing barrier.

When the architecture implements local_t using atomic_long_t there
will be double barriers issued; but short of introducing more
conditional barrier primitives this is the best we can do.

The PPC64 people noticed a missing memory barrier and crufty old
comments in the perf ring buffer code. So update all the comments and
add the missing barrier.

When the architecture implements local_t using atomic_long_t there
will be double barriers issued; but short of introducing more
conditional barrier primitives this is the best we can do.

   - Two tooling fixes

   - Reversal of the new 'MMAP2' extended mmap record ABI, introduced in

     a bit late and we felt it's safer to just delay the ABI one more

Pull locking fix from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree fixes a boot crash in CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y kernels, on
  kernels built with GCC 3.x (there are still such distros)"

Side note: it's not just a fix for old gcc versions, it's also removing
an incredibly broken/subtle check that LLVM had issues with, and that
made no sense.

 "These fix two bugs in the intel_pstate driver, a hibernate bug leading
  to nasty resume failures sometimes and acpi-cpufreq initialization bug
  that causes problems to happen during module unload when intel_pstate
  is in use.

  Specifics:

   - Fix for rounding errors in intel_pstate causing CPU utilization to
     be underestimated from Brennan Shacklett.

   - intel_pstate fix to always use the correct max pstate value when
     computing the min pstate from Dirk Brandewie.

   - Hibernation fix for deadlocking resume in cases when the probing of
     the device containing the image is deferred from Russ Dill.

   - acpi-cpufreq fix to prevent the module from staying in memory when
     the driver cannot be registered and then attempting to unregister
     things that have never been registered on exit"

software_resume is being called after deferred_probe_initcall in
drivers base. If the probing of the device that contains the resume
image is deferred, and the system has been instructed to wait for
it to show up, this wait will occur in software_resume. This causes
a deadlock.

Move software_resume into late_initcall_sync so that it happens
after all the other late_initcalls.
