[ Upstream commit 8c7188b23474cca017b3ef354c4a58456f68303a ]

Sasha's found a NULL pointer dereference in the RDS connection code when
sending a message to an apparently unbound socket.  The problem is caused
by the code checking if the socket is bound in rds_sendmsg(), which checks
the rs_bound_addr field without taking a lock on the socket.  This opens a
race where rs_bound_addr is temporarily set but where the transport is not
in rds_bind(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference when trying to
dereference 'trans' in __rds_conn_create().

Vegard wrote a reproducer for this issue, so kindly ask him to share if
you're interested.

I cannot reproduce the NULL pointer dereference using Vegard's reproducer
with this patch, whereas I could without.

Complete earlier incomplete fix to CVE-2015-6937:

There was no verification that an underlying transport exists when creating
a connection, this would cause dereferencing a NULL ptr.

It might happen on sockets that weren't properly bound before attempting to
send a message, which will cause a NULL ptr deref:

[ Upstream commit 8ce675ff39b9958d1c10f86cf58e357efaafc856 ]

Either of pskb_pull() or pskb_trim() may fail under low memory conditions.
If rds_tcp_data_recv() ignores such failures, the application will
receive corrupted data because the skb has not been correctly
carved to the RDS datagram size.

Avoid this by handling pskb_pull/pskb_trim failure in the same
manner as the skb_clone failure: bail out of rds_tcp_data_recv(), and
retry via the deferred call to rds_send_worker() that gets set up on
ENOMEM from rds_tcp_read_sock()

"len" is a signed integer.  We check that len is not negative, so it
goes from zero to INT_MAX.  PAGE_SIZE is unsigned long so the comparison
is type promoted to unsigned long.  ULONG_MAX - 4095 is a higher than
INT_MAX so the condition can never be true.

I don't know if this is harmful but it seems safe to limit "len" to
INT_MAX - 4095.

Fixes: 3e0249f9c05c ("RDS/IB: add refcount tracking to struct rds_ib_device")

There lacks a dropping on rds_ib_device.refcount in case rds_ib_alloc_fmr
failed(mr pool running out). this lead to the refcount overflow.

A complain in line 117(see following) is seen. From vmcore:
s_ib_rdma_mr_pool_depleted is 2147485544 and rds_ibdev-&gt;refcount is -2147475448.
That is the evidence the mr pool is used up. so rds_ib_alloc_fmr is very likely
to return ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN).

115 void rds_ib_dev_put(struct rds_ib_device *rds_ibdev)
116 {
117         BUG_ON(atomic_read(&amp;rds_ibdev-&gt;refcount) &lt;= 0);
118         if (atomic_dec_and_test(&amp;rds_ibdev-&gt;refcount))
119                 queue_work(rds_wq, &amp;rds_ibdev-&gt;free_work);
120 }

fix is to drop refcount when rds_ib_alloc_fmr failed.

The module_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Currently, ib_create_cq uses cqe and comp_vecotr instead
of the extendible ib_cq_init_attr struct.

Earlier patches already changed the vendors to work with
ib_cq_init_attr. This patch changes the consumers too.
