mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
Previous commits have established the invariant that kernel page table
freeing is performed while an mmap read lock on init_mm is held, which
fixes races between ptdump and kernel page table freeing over init_mm.
However, x86 and arm64 can perform a ptdump over an mm other than init_mm
via ptdump_walk_pgd() and since kernel memory ranges are shared across
non-kernel mm's, this means that the race still exists for these cases.
Fix this by acquiring a nested mmap write lock for init_mm in
ptdump_walk_pgd().
This is safe as we take this after mmap write locking the mm, and nothing
acquires the init_mm lock first before locking an arbitrary mm, so no
deadlock is possible.
Also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert that init_mm is write
locked, add a comment explaining why and remove some redundant code, and
eliminate the unnecessary and confusing invocation of
walk_kernel_page_table_range().
We can safely remove the non-NULL check for walk.mm, as the mmap lock
asserts would NULL pointer deref if it was (and of course no callers do
this).
The first point at which ptdump can race kernel page table freeing is
commit
b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table"), so we target this in the Fixes tag.

mm/vmalloc: acquire init_mm lock on huge vmap to avoid ptdump UAF
Patch series "mm: fix UAF caused by race between ptdump and vmap pgtable
freeing", v6.
Kernel page table walkers fall into two broad categories - those ranges
where no exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range_lockless()
and those where exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range()
or walk_page_range_debug().
The former category is used only by arm64 arch code operating on ranges it
both wholly owns and does not concurrently write.
The latter category consists of kernel page table walkers operating on
ranges that are wholly owned (but which need exclusion against concurrent
writers).
The lock used for exclusion is the mmap lock, and for kernel ranges this
is the mmap lock on init_mm.
ptdump is a special case being both the only user of
walk_page_range_debug(), and the only case in which it walks ranges it
does not own.
This presents a problem, as page tables may be freed under ptdump. And
indeed there is a use-after-free bug in the kernel as a result, which this
series addresses.
vmap promotes page tables to huge leaf entries where possible, freeing the
lower page table when it does. It does this with no meaningful locks held
against concurrent ptdump walks.
As a result, use-after-free can currently occur. This series addresses
the issue by having the vmap huge promotion logic acquire the mmap read
lock while both setting the huge page table entry and freeing the prior
leaf page table.
The ptdump code already acquires the mmap write lock, so by doing so we
ensure that the ptdump walker only ever observes either the huge page
table entry or the existing page table entry, and nothing is freed
underneath it.
A mitigation for this issue was already applied for arm64 in commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which this series
has to deal with carefully.
This mitigation resolves the issue by acquiring the mmap read lock on
init_mm on vmap page table free if a ptdump is in progress.
However the fix in this series would cause a deadlock if we were to simply
apply it for arm64 without also reverting the change.
This is because vmap may acquire the read lock before ptdump attempts to
acquire the write lock, which then gets queued, and rwsem starvation rules
mean that the (unacknowledged) nested mmap read lock in the arm64 code
would also block, meaning the original read lock is never released and
thus deadlock.
This series works around this by #ifndef CONFIG_ARM64'ing the mmap read
lock in vmap logic, then partially reverting commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64:
Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), keeping the enablement of huge vmap
support, and removing the ifdeffery with the partial revert patch.
There are related issues that are also addressed in this series:
* x86 page attribute logic, specifically Change Page Attributes (CPA),
implements a feature whereby huge ranges can be collapsed into huge leaf
entries. This can similarly cause a UAF when done in parallel with a
ptdump walk, so similarly acquire the init_mm mmap lock to avoid this.
* The CPA logic allows concurrent page table manipulation and CPA
collapse, meaning the former risks accessing a page table the latter
frees. Fix this by acquiring mmap write lock on init_mm across the
whole CPA collapse operation and read lock on the page table
manipulation.
* x86 and arm64 permit walks of non-kernel mm's (both allowing efi mm
walks, and in x86's case arbitrary mm's), so we ensure kernel mappings
remain stable by locking the init_mm as well as the mm being walked.
The ordering of patches is established for both strict dependencies (the
arm64 partial revert in particular has to be done after the vmap changes)
and logical ones (the non-kernel mm fix only makes sense once the vmap/CPA
fixes are in place).
This patch (of 3):
Currently there is a nasty race between ptdump and vmap when attempting to
map a huge P4D, PUD or PMD entry:
* ptdump walks kernel page table ranges it doesn't own.
* When vmap maps ranges it tries to promotes existing ones to huge page
tables in vmap_try_huge_[p4d,pud,pmd]() at P4D, PUD and PMD level,
freeing the lower page table in [p4d,pud,pmd]_free_[pud,pmd,pte]_page()
when it succeeds.
Both of these things can happen at the same time and as a result ptdump
can access a freed page table, resulting in a use-after-free and memory
corruption.
This is possible because while ptdump_walk_pgd() holds both the mem
hotplug lock and the mmap write lock before invoking
walk_page_range_debug(), vmap takes no relevant locks at all.
Fix this by holding the mmap read lock in vmap_try_huge_*() when freeing
page tables.
The read lock is sufficient: ptdump is the only walker that must be
excluded and it holds the mmap write lock. Other holders of the read lock
may run concurrently, but each exclusively owns the range it operates on
and cannot reach the page tables freed here.
We also hold the lock while assigning the huge page table entry, which
means page table walkers observe only the huge or non-huge page table
entry.
We use a trylock to prevent ptdump from blocking vmap making forward
progress. This is fine because it's an optimisation in any case, and thus
the vmap can safely proceed regardless.
All other kernel page table walkers that touch vmalloc ranges either
exclusively own the memory walked or acquire the mmap lock, so this
correctly excludes those walkers.
One wrinkle here is commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with
ptdump"), which addresses the issue for arm64 only by explicitly acquiring
the mmap read lock on kernel page table freeing should a concurrent ptdump
be in progress.
This is problematic as vmap may acquire the mmap read lock prior to ptdump
attempting to acquire an mmap write lock, leading to a deadlock when the
mmap read lock is slept upon on page table freeing due to rwsem
anti-starvation.
We work around this by predicating the mmap lock being taken on
!CONFIG_ARM64 for the time being.
With this patch applied, a follow up will partially revert commit
fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump") and at that stage
remove the arm64 ifdeffery.
We also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert the mmap write lock
unconditionally and update the comment here to reflect this change.
The issue has existed as long as ptdump was available and vmap freed page
tables when promoting to a huge leaf entry, that is, since commit
b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page table")
for huge ioremap, and commit
121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc
mappings") for huge vmalloc.
Since the former is the earlier of the two we choose that for our Fixes
tag.
We also define a guard class for mmap_read_trylock() so we can use
cleanup.h to make the scope handling cleaner in the implementation.
This patch is based on work by David Carlier (linked), with gratitude!

bnxt_en: Determine and store default RX ring in vnic structure
Each VNIC has a default RX ring. The purpose of the default RX ring
is to provide a destination for any packets that cannot be parsed by
the RSS logic. Up until now, the default RX ring is always Ring 0.
We neglected to take care of this default RX ring when adding the
queue restart feature. If ring 0 (default ring) is re-started, it
may now have a new FW ring ID after freeing the old one and
allocating a new one. The VNIC now may have a stale default ring
and it may generate an internal exception. This exception may
appear in dmesg:
FW reported unknown error type 10
The best way to resolve this issue is to use a more appropriate
ring for the default ring instead of always ring 0. Ring 0 may not
even be in the RSS table, especially on a new RSS context.
This patch adds the logic to determine and store the proper default
RX ring for a VNIC. For an RSS VNIC, the default ring is the lowest
ring number in the RSS table. The next patch will add proper logic
to update the VNIC if the default ring changes after queue restart.

net: openvswitch: reallocate update replies for mismatched IDs
ovs_flow_cmd_new() preallocates the optional reply skb before it takes
ovs_mutex and before it knows which existing flow will be updated.
That is normally fine because the skb is sized from the request flow
identifier. That identifier also becomes the inserted flow's identifier.
For updates, however, a request with a UFID may miss the UFID lookup and
then fall back to the flow key lookup. That lookup can legitimately find
an existing key-identified flow. UFIDs are optional and the flow key is
the primary identifier.
For echoed replies, ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() writes the matched flow's
identifier, not the request identifier used for the preallocation. A short
request UFID can therefore leave too little room for the key identifier.
The fill can then fail with -EMSGSIZE and hit the BUG_ON(error < 0) in the
update path.
Once the update target has been resolved, reallocate the reply skb if the
matched flow needs a larger reply than the request identifier allowed. Do
this before replacing the actions so the request can still fail cleanly if
the rare extra allocation fails.

net: atlantic: free stranded TX buffers on ring deinit
aq_vec_deinit() drains the TX rings with a single aq_ring_tx_clean()
call, which frees at most AQ_CFG_TX_CLEAN_BUDGET (256) descriptors and
stops at hw_head, which no longer moves once aq_vec_stop() has stopped
the hardware and NAPI. Completed descriptors beyond the budget and
everything still posted in [hw_head, sw_tail) keep their skb or
xdp_frame when the interface goes down: aq_vec_ring_free() then frees
the buffer ring and the references are lost for good.
Today this is a silent memory leak on every interface down under
TX/XDP_TX load. With the conversion of the RX path to page_pool posted
for net-next it becomes much more visible: XDP_TX frames carry fragment
references on the RX ring's page_pool, so a single stranded frame keeps
the pool's inflight count above zero forever. page_pool_destroy() then
never completes, the pool is leaked together with its pages, and
"page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown" is warned every 60
seconds from that point on, on every ifdown, XDP detach or ring resize
under XDP_TX load.
Bring back aq_ring_tx_deinit() as it was before the removal and use it
for teardown again, with one extension: TX rings can hold xdp_frames
nowadays, so release those too. They are returned with
xdp_return_frame() since this runs in process context.

net: stmmac: resume PHY before hardware setup when opening the interface
Since the referenced commit, changing the MTU on a running interface no
longer disconnects and reconnects the PHY; __stmmac_release() merely
stops phylink, which also suspends the PHY (BMCR power-down) when WoL
is not enabled. __stmmac_open() then performs the DMA software reset in
stmmac_hw_setup() before phylink_start() resumes the PHY again.
IEEE 802.3 22.2.4.1.5 allows a PHY to stop its receive clock while
powered down, and stmmac requires a running receive clock for the DMA
software reset to complete (the phylink config sets mac_requires_rxc).
On such setups, e.g. the RK3566-based Home Assistant Green with an
RTL8211F-VD PHY in RGMII mode, any runtime MTU change now times out and
leaves the interface dead:
rk_gmac-dwmac
fe010000.ethernet end0: Failed to reset the dma
rk_gmac-dwmac
fe010000.ethernet end0: stmmac_hw_setup: DMA engine initialization failed
rk_gmac-dwmac
fe010000.ethernet end0: __stmmac_open: Hw setup failed
rk_gmac-dwmac
fe010000.ethernet end0: failed reopening the interface after MTU change
In the field this is triggered by NetworkManager applying an MTU while
activating the connection, breaking networking entirely. The same
regression has also been reported on i.MX8MP and reproduced on SoCFPGA
based systems.
Resume the PHY in __stmmac_open() before the hardware setup, making it
the counterpart of the phylink_stop() in __stmmac_release(), like
stmmac_resume() already does for the same reason. phylink_start() also
resumes the PHY, but only after stmmac_hw_setup(), and it cannot be
moved before the hardware setup since it may bring the link up
immediately from a workqueue, racing with the initialization (see the
comment in stmmac_resume()). For the regular ndo_open path the PHY has
just been attached and is not suspended, in which case
phylink_prepare_resume() does nothing.

smb: client: fix SMB1 TRANS2 multi-response truncation in SendReceive()
When a TRANS2 response is split across multiple secondary packets,
coalesce_t2() assembles the payload into the large response buffer.
Two bugs cause SendReceive() to copy only a small fraction of the
assembled buffer into the caller's output buffer.
This manifests when listing a large directory on an SMB1 share
(observed against Windows XP); the first getdents returns only
partial results, and subsequent getdents returns EINVAL.
Bug 1: coalesce_t2() computes the coalesced size as:
*pdu_len += total_in_src;
cifs_demultiplex_thread() resets *pdu_len to each secondary's own
pdu_length before calling coalesce_t2(), so this accumulates from
the wrong baseline on every secondary after the first.
Bug 2: after reassembly, cifs_demultiplex_thread() sets
mid->resp_buf_size to the final secondary's raw packet size. This
value is later used as the memcpy length, so only a portion of the
coalesced response is copied.
Fix both by replacing the stale *pdu_len arithmetic with
smbCalcSize(), which reads the BCC field that coalesce_t2()
maintains correctly throughout reassembly.

hwmon: (pmbus/lm25066) Fix PMBus coefficient calculations
In lm25066_probe(), the PMBus coefficients for current and power are
scaled based on the shunt resistor value. The calculation evaluates the
multiplication using 32-bit arithmetic because info->m is an int and
shunt is a u32:
static int lm25066_probe(struct i2c_client *client) {
...
info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] * shunt / 1000;
info->m[PSC_POWER] = info->m[PSC_POWER] * shunt / 1000;
...
}
For large coefficients like 26882 (LM25056) or 15076 (LM5066i), a device
tree shunt-resistor-micro-ohms value exceeding approximately 159,000
(159 mOhm, which is physically valid for low-current applications) causes
the intermediate product to exceed UINT_MAX (4,294,967,295). This results
in a silent wraparound before the division by 1000.
Furthermore, if the wrapped value has the most significant bit set,
converting it back to the signed int info->m results in negative
coefficients. This logic error leads to drastically corrupted current and
power readings, which can cause erratic thermal or power management
behavior in the system.
Fix the problem by using 64-bit operations for the multiply/divide
operations. This can still overflow, but only for unreasonably large
shunt resistor values.

hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) Check return value of init_device() in probe

fail, init_device() returns a negative error code.
However, the return value was ignored, causing the probe to continue
and register an hwmon device even though the device was never properly
initialized. This leads to an inconsistent state where the driver
reports stale data or blocks on wait queues that will never be woken.
The same function's return value is already checked in the

should be propagated.

The digest-length check in xattr_verify() mixes int and size_t:
if (xattr_len - sizeof(xattr_value->type) - hash_start >=

sizeof() yields size_t, so the usual arithmetic conversions promote
the whole left-hand side to unsigned 64-bit before the subtraction
runs. For a truncated xattr this underflows instead of going negative:
a 1-byte IMA_XATTR_DIGEST_NG xattr (xattr_len == 1, hash_start == 1)
turns "1 - 1 - 1" into SIZE_MAX, which is trivially >= ima_hash->length.
The check then passes and the following memcmp() reads
iint->ima_hash->length bytes starting past the end of the buffer
vfs_getxattr_alloc() allocated for it.
Nothing upstream clamps xattr_len back into a safe range first:
ima_get_hash_algo() only special-cases xattr_len < 2 to pick a default
algorithm, and evm_verifyxattr() returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN rather than
failing when no HMAC key is loaded, so a truncated security.ima value
reaches the length check as-is.

tascam_free_urbs() then returns the capture transfer buffers with
usb_free_coherent(), and snd_card_free() releases the snd_card
allocation that embeds tascam (card->private_data). The controller
completes the queued URBs afterwards, writing device-supplied data into
the freed transfer buffer, and capture_urb_complete() dereferences the
freed driver object.

Every control read writes into struct snd_ctl_elem_value, whose integer

fcp_meter_ctl_get() stores one 64-bit word per channel into that array
with no bound of its own:
for (i = 0; i < elem->channels; i++) {
int idx = private->meter_level_map[i];
int value = idx < 0 ? 0 : le32_to_cpu(resp[idx]);
ucontrol->value.integer.value[i] = value;

kmalloc-2048. offsetof(struct snd_ctl_elem_value, value) is 72, so
element i is written at byte 72 + 8 * i and element 144 already lands
past the allocation. At map_size 255 the last store ends at byte 2112,
888 bytes past the object and 64 bytes into the adjacent slab object.
The stored words come from the device and meter_level_map[] selects
which word lands in which slot, so extent and contents are both
controlled.
The core does not catch this. snd_ctl_check_elem_info() is reached only
from __snd_ctl_elem_info(), which snd_ctl_elem_read() calls under
CONFIG_SND_CTL_DEBUG; without that option snd_ctl_skip_validation() is a
compile-time true. __snd_ctl_add_replace() validates kcontrol->count and
never inspects elem->channels.
Installing an oversized map needs CAP_SYS_RAWIO, but the control outlives
the hwdep descriptor that created it, so the out-of-bounds stores are

net/sched: cls_api: Always acquire rtnl_lock when destroying locked classifiers
Another challenge with unlocked filters.
There is a short window in tc_new_tfilter where a tcf_proto can be found
and briefly referenced by a totally unrelated, unlocked classifier's request
and cause a race.
Feng created a poc which created this race with two threads, one creating a
u32 filter and other a flower filter in the same chain/prio:
1. Both threads enter tc_new_tfilter, both find the chain empty, both
drop filter_chain_lock
2. u32 finishes tcf_proto_create("u32") first, calls
tcf_chain_tp_insert_unique() -> inserts u32_tp into the chain
3. flower finishes tcf_proto_create("flower") later, calls
tcf_chain_tp_insert_unique() -> tcf_chain_tp_find() now sees u32_tp
already there, takes a reference on it, destroys flower's own tp_new
and returns u32_tp to the caller.
Flower then hits the kind mismatch check (because it requested for kind
"flower" but tp->ops->kind is "u32") and goes through the errout path
which calls tcf_proto_put() on u32_tp. If the u32 thread has already
gone through its own errout (its change() call failed on the PoC's empty
options) and dropped its create and insert refs, flower's put is the
last one and drops u32_tp's refcnt to zero.
At this point tp->ops->destroy() runs in a context that never took
rtnl_lock. When that happens, it might cause a UAF like the following
(illustrated by the PoC):
[ +0.000710] BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in u32_init (net/sched/cls_u32.c:393)

Fix this by having tcf_proto_destroy() take rtnl_lock around
tp->ops->destroy() for locked classifiers whenever rtnl is not held.
To explain why I used a temp variable "not_lockless" I'd like to point to a
semi-related note on rtnl_held vs TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED (adding here
for future cleanup if deemed necessary):
The rtnl_held parameter and the TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED flag are
redundant sources of truth for whether rtnl_lock is held. Among the nine
classifier destroy(..rtnl_held..) callbacks, only flower consults the
rtnl_held parameter which it propagates to tc_setup_cb_destroy()
and tc_setup_cb_call(). The other eight (u32, flow, bpf, cgroup, route, basic,
fw, mall) ignore it entirely;-> those that call tc_setup_cb_destroy()
(u32, bpf, mall) hardcode true always instead of forwarding the parameter.
A future cleanup should remove the rtnl_held parameter from the destroy callback
signature entirely and have callers rely solely on their knowledge whether
they are running in an unlocked context.

pmdomain: mediatek: Fix mt8183 hang on boot
Depending on firmware, part of the MFG domains may be partially left ON
at boot time with kernel detecting PD as ON, while it's OFF.
Some of MFG cores may be left powered after bootloader, to let the ACP to
prefetch the GPU region when the display controller is brought up for a
continuous splash animation performed by downstream stack.
This doesn't play well with an eventual delay in probing upstream Panfrost
driver when the display controller is fully set up, as that would make
genpd's sync_state() to power off the domain while ACP tries to prefetch:
this is causing an AXI stall, effectively freezing the AP indefinitely.
In order to prevent trouble from happening, the sync_state() functionality
must be obliterated on all of the MFG domains: while this guarantees a
power leakage if the bootloader boots the kernel with MFG PDs partially
powered on, this is the only way to ensure stable operation of the SoC
during boot on devices with such firmware because, of course, those will
never officially receive a firmware update.

omap_hsmmc_prepare_data() converts the command busy timeout to nanoseconds

busy_timeout is an unsigned int (milliseconds) and timeout is a u64, but
NSEC_PER_MSEC is 1000000L. On 32-bit builds the multiplication is
performed in 32-bit arithmetic and wraps for busy_timeout values above
~4294 ms, before the result is assigned to the u64.
The driver does not set mmc->max_busy_timeout, so the core does not cap the
busy timeout, and commands such as erase or SANITIZE (MMC_SANITIZE_TIMEOUT_MS
is 240000 ms) can pass a busy_timeout far larger than 4294 ms. The wrapped,
much smaller ns value is then programmed via set_data_timeout(), so the data

The tuning_err field in struct sdhci_host is used to store an error
code for re-tuning, but it was declared as unsigned int. Several call
sites store negative error codes into it and later compare against
negative values:
- sdhci.c, sdhci-of-dwcmshc.c and sdhci-pci-gli.c assign it the
return value of __sdhci_execute_tuning()/__sdhci_execute_tuning_9750(),

- sdhci-of-dwcmshc.c prints it with the %d (signed) conversion.
Storing a negative errno in an unsigned int and reading it back as a
signed int only happens to work because of two's-complement, same-width
integer conversions. It is misleading and triggers sign-conversion
warnings. All users treat the value either as a signed error code or as
a boolean (zero / non-zero), so changing the type to a signed int is

ovs_flow_key_extract() trusts the user-provided skb->protocol field: if
it is ETH_P_TEB, the packet is classified as MAC_PROTO_ETHERNET and
key_extract() is called without ensuring the skb has ETH_HLEN (14) bytes
of linear data. key_extract() unconditionally pulls 2 * ETH_ALEN bytes
for MAC addresses and parse_ethertype() pulls 2 more, either of which
triggers a kernel BUG in __skb_pull() when the linear area is too small.
kernel BUG at include/linux/skbuff.h:2848!

packet: synchronize pressure clearing with ring reconfiguration
packet_set_ring() updates the RX ring state under sk_receive_queue.lock,
but used to publish the tpacket receive mode through po->prot_hook.func
after releasing that lock. packet_poll() and packet_recvmsg() can then
run the pressure clearing path after the ring has been cleared while
still seeing tpacket_rcv, causing __packet_rcv_has_room() to dereference
stale or NULL ring storage.
Move the existing receive hook assignment into the same
sk_receive_queue.lock section as the ring state update. Keep the
assignment otherwise unchanged, including on TX ring reconfiguration, to
avoid adding behavior changes that are not required for the fix.
Serialize packet_recvmsg() pressure clearing with the same queue lock
only after PACKET_SOCK_PRESSURE has been observed. If the flag is clear
and the socket has moved away from tpacket_rcv, packet_set_ring() has
already detached the socket and waited for synchronize_net(), so no new
packet input can set the flag again.
packet_poll() already holds sk_receive_queue.lock, so it uses the new
unlocked helper directly.

Additionally a USB device plugged in to the USB3.0 (or 2.0) did not
enumerate. Once this patch is applied the USB device enumerates properly.
The CRCR register is 64 bits wide - commit
abe93f27cdd7
("xhci: use BIT macro") changed the flag definitions from (1 << n),
a signed int, to BIT(n), an unsigned long. Within
xhci_set_cmd_ring_deq(), the following operation is performed on the
CRCR register:
...
crcr &= ~CMD_RING_PTR_MASK;
crcr |= deq_dma;
crcr &= ~CMD_RING_CYCLE;
crcr |= xhci->cmd_ring->cycle_state;
...
Previously, ~CMD_RING_CYCLE was ~(int)1, a negative signed value
(0xFFFFFFFE with the sign bit set). Widening a negative signed int to
u64 sign-extends it to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE, correctly clearing only bit
0 and preserving the 64-bit pointer written two lines above.
After the change when running on 32 bit kernels, ~CMD_RING_CYCLE is
~(unsigned long)1UL. On a 32-bit host this is an unsigned 32-bit
value (0xFFFFFFFE, no sign bit). Widening an unsigned value to u64
zero-extends it instead (0x00000000FFFFFFFE), so the subsequent AND
silently clears bits 63:32 of crcr, truncating the command ring
pointer that was just written before the value reaches hardware.
To fix, similar to how CMD_RING_PTR_MASK is defined, make sure we
use the BIT_ULL variant when defining the CRCR bits.

vhost-scsi: reject feature changes after endpoint
vhost_scsi_setup_vq_cmds() runs from VHOST_SCSI_SET_ENDPOINT and allocates

vhost_scsi_set_features() currently accepts such a request after the

endpoint setup therefore leaves prot_sgl NULL while the I/O path follows
the new feature bit.

first chunk to sg_alloc_table_chained():
sg_alloc_table_chained(table, 129, first_chunk=NULL,

taking the hit as proof that the region has already been validated:

With a device IOTLB attached both ioctls are accepted while the vq is
live, and neither validates the addresses at ioctl time: vq_access_ok()
and vq_log_used_access_ok() return true early because the addresses are
GIOVAs, deferring validation to prefetch time. Once the cache has been
populated that deferred validation no longer runs -- vq_meta_prefetch()
hits the stale entry and returns true -- and vhost_vq_meta_fetch() keeps
translating through the old mapping as
map->addr + addr - map->start
for an address the mapping no longer covers. vhost_copy_to_user() and
vhost_copy_from_user() consume the result with __copy_to_user() and
__copy_from_user(), which do not check it either, so a subsequent used
ring update or descriptor fetch accesses memory outside the region the
IOTLB actually maps.

bnge: Fix NULL pointer dereference in aux device release
If allocation of auxr_dev fails during auxiliary device setup, the error
path calls auxiliary_device_uninit(), which eventually invokes
bnge_aux_dev_release().
The release callback unconditionally dereferences aux_priv->auxr_dev->pdev
to retrieve the parent bnge_dev. Since auxr_dev has not yet been allocated
on this failure path, the dereference results in a NULL pointer exception
Retrieve the parent bnge_dev from the auxiliary device's parent instead of
auxr_dev, and free auxr_dev only when it was successfully allocated. This
allows the release callback to correctly clean up partially initialized
auxiliary devices.

Input: evdev - fix information leak in evdev_pass_values()
In evdev_pass_values(), the input_event structure is allocated on the
kernel stack and populated field-by-field. However, it is never fully
initialized. On architectures where struct input_event contains explicit
or implicit padding (such as the 32-bit __pad field on SPARC64), these
padding bytes are left uninitialized.
When this event structure is subsequently passed to the client buffer
and later copied to userspace, the uninitialized padding bytes leak
kernel stack memory, potentially exposing sensitive information.
Similar issues exist in __evdev_queue_syn_dropped and __pass_event.
Fix this by explicitly zeroing the entire event structure with memset()
before populating its fields. This ensures all padding bytes are cleared
before the data crosses the security boundary.

When the interface has NETIF_F_SG enabled and skb_linearize() fails in

usbnet_start_xmit() treats a NULL return from tx_fixup() as a drop

to the "drop" label where it does `if (skb) dev_kfree_skb_any(skb)`.
Because tx_fixup() returned NULL, the local skb variable in

memory leak on every TX frame whose linearization fails (i.e. under

xsk: harden TX metadata validation against races
Cen Zhang reported a KASAN out-of-bounds read when AF_XDP is configured
with a TX metadata area smaller than struct xsk_tx_metadata. The metadata

produce inconsistent validation and processing decisions.
Require enough space for the flags and one request field, validate the

xsk: clear metadata pointer when no timestamp is requested
User space can change metadata flags after request processing. Rereading
them during completion can therefore make the kernel write a timestamp
that was not requested when the packet was submitted.
Clear the metadata pointer during request processing unless timestamp
completion is requested. Completion handling can then use the pointer
itself instead of rereading the flags.
On the mlx5 multi-packet WQE path metadata is evaluated per batch:
xsk_tx_metadata_request() runs only for the descriptor that starts a
session, just like the checksum offload that is applied once through the
shared WQE. Only that descriptor's pointer is reset, so completion
handling can record a timestamp for the other descriptors of the session
regardless of their own XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP bit. The write stays
inside the metadata area; the single-WQE, other zero-copy, and generic
paths reset the pointer per descriptor and are unaffected.

btrfs: flush the fixup workers during close_ctree
Reintroducing the COW fixup worker brought back the unmount race fixed
by commit
41fd1e94066a ("btrfs: wait for fixup workers before stopping
cleaner kthread during umount") without bringing back the fix.
A fixup work item queued by the final writeback pass can still be in flight
when close_ctree() stops the cleaner kthread and frees the fs roots.
While destroy_workqueue() drains the queue, that happens after the
cleaner thread was freed, so btrfs_add_delayed_iput() called from the
fixup worker is no longer safe (not to mention that we are already in
BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DELAYED_IPUT when it runs).
Therefore we need to bring back explicitly flushing the fixup workqueue
as in Filipe's original fix. The first flush will catch all the fixup
writeback queued during the final sync before umount, but some of that
might hit memory allocation errors and stay fixup in the blocks/folio,
leading any subsequent writeback triggered *inside* umount (e.g. reclaim
workers shutting down) to hit it and queue again. To fix that, and the
possibility of any really long-lived pinned folios getting marked, deny
queueing new fixup during umount. That allows us to flush twice (once
before doing a real writeback pass to get the actual data, second time
to clean up any rather unlikely stragglers right before declaring
BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DELAYED_IPUT) and be certain nothing got re-queued.
Reproduced by injecting a one-shot 30s sleep at the head of
btrfs_writepage_fixup_worker() on a KASAN kernel, running the normal

ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
rt6_route_rcv() validates the Route Information option (RFC 4191) length
against the prefix length, but both checks are off by one.
rinfo->length is the ND option length in units of 8 octets and it
*includes* the 8-byte option header, so an option carrying N bytes of
prefix has length == 1 + N/8. RFC 4191 section 2.3 requires length 3
when Prefix Length is greater than 64, and 2 or 3 when it is greater
than 0. The code accepts length >= 2 and length >= 1 respectively.
ipv6_addr_prefix() then copies prefix_len/8 bytes out of rinfo->prefix,
so a Router Advertisement with (prefix_len=128, length=2) or
(prefix_len=64, length=1) makes the kernel read up to 8 bytes past the
end of the option. Those bytes end up in the prefix of the route that
gets installed, so they are visible to userspace:
# RA with a Route Information option (prefix_len=128, length=2)
# followed by a source link-layer address option, 01 01 de ad be ef ca fe
$ ip -6 route show
2001:db8:dead:beef:101:dead:beef:cafe via fe80::1234 dev veth0 proto ra
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the next option, read out of bounds
When the Route Information option is the last one in the packet, those
eight bytes come from the skb tail room instead.
Reject the option lengths RFC 4191 does not allow.

tcp: do not change rcv_ssthresh in tcp_measure_rcv_mss()
Commit
f5da7c45188e ("tcp: adjust rcvq_space after updating scaling
ratio") replaced the direct window_clamp update in tcp_measure_rcv_mss()
with a call to tcp_set_window_clamp(), a helper that implements the
TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP setsockopt. As a side effect, the helper also shrinks
rcv_ssthresh via __tcp_adjust_rcv_ssthresh().
As a result, each scaling_ratio decrease detected by
tcp_measure_rcv_mss() also cuts rcv_ssthresh. Elsewhere in TCP,
rcv_ssthresh is usually cut under memory pressure and grows via
tcp_grow_window().
Flows whose segment sizes vary keep scaling_ratio oscillating, which
leads to an unstable rcv_ssthresh: a dip of rcv_ssthresh only recovers
via tcp_grow_window(), keeping the advertised window at a relatively
low level even after the ratio itself has recovered, and can even stall
the sender.
Observed on a customer's proxy gateway after upgrading from kernel 6.1
to 6.12: in the worst case, rcv_ssthresh was cut in half by a
scaling_ratio dip. P99 latency jumped from <10ms on 6.1 to ~100ms on
6.12, and almost returned to the 6.1 level with this patch applied.
Restore the plain WRITE_ONCE() update of window_clamp, as introduced
in commit
a2cbb1603943 ("tcp: Update window clamping condition"), and
keep the rcvq_space.space adjustment. Now rcv_ssthresh is decoupled from
scaling_ratio changes in tcp_measure_rcv_mss().

selinux: require every boolean value to be defined
p_bools.nprim comes from the policy image independently of how many
booleans follow it, and cond_index_bool() fills bool_val_to_struct[] at
value - 1, so a count larger than the values present leaves NULL entries.
Every user of that array then walks it by index and dereferences each
entry: cond_evaluate_expr() on the access-vector path,
security_get_bools() and security_get_bool_value() behind selinuxfs, and
security_set_bools(). A sparse class value is absorbed by
policydb_class_isvalid() and its siblings; booleans have no such
predicate, and no consumer that could use one.
Reject a boolean value that no boolean defines, once, where the array is
built. Conforming policies define every boolean they declare and are
unaffected.

selinux: do not cancel a policy conversion that never started
sel_write_load() calls selinux_policy_cancel() when sel_make_policy_nodes()
fails, and that helper dereferences the outgoing policy to cancel its
sidtab conversion. On the first policy load there is no outgoing policy:
security_load_policy() returns early for that case, before it converts
anything, and state->policy is still NULL. A first load that fails while
building the selinuxfs tree therefore takes a NULL dereference in
selinux_policy_cancel(), reached from a write(2) to /sys/fs/selinux/load.
Skip the cancel when there is no old policy, mirroring the check
security_load_policy() already makes before it converts.

hwmon: (pmbus) Fix type confusion in notification logic
Sashiko reports:
At the start of the loop in pmbus_notify(), the code unconditionally casts
every attribute to a struct sensor_device_attribute:
drivers/hwmon/pmbus/pmbus_core.c:pmbus_notify() {
for (i = 0; i < data->num_attributes; i++) {
struct device_attribute *da = to_dev_attr(data->group.attrs[i]);
struct sensor_device_attribute *attr = to_sensor_dev_attr(da);
int index = attr->index;
...
}
However, data->group.attrs can contain other types like struct
pmbus_samples_reg or struct pmbus_sensor, which only embed a base
struct device_attribute.
If da is a struct pmbus_samples_reg, dev_attr is the last member. Casting
it to struct sensor_device_attribute and reading the index field appears
to access memory past the end of the allocation, which might trigger a
slab-out-of-bounds read.
Additionally, if da is a struct pmbus_sensor, casting it causes the index
field to overlap with the page, phase, and reg fields. Could this produce
a garbage mask on little-endian systems that spuriously matches the target
reg, page, and flags during an alert?
Fix the problem by using struct sensor_device_attr in struct pmbus_sensor
and struct pmbus_label. Since those attributes never trigger a
notification, set the value of attr->index to -1 for them. Use this value
to distinguish from boolean attributes which _can_ trigger a notification
and use the index field to encode mask, page, and register values.

create_direct_keys calculates the pointer and length for in and out

The size calculation for in includes the entire structure
size (out + in + mtt[]) but the pointer passed to cmd_exec points only
to the 'in' field, skipping the 'out' field.
This causes mlx5_copy_to_msg() to read beyond the allocated buffer
by sizeof(out) bytes when copying command data.
Properly calculate the input size to match the pointer and allocation size.

vhost_iotlb: bound map allocation in add_range
vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx() only retires an old entry when the table
has a non-zero limit, has exactly reached that limit and has
VHOST_IOTLB_FLAG_RETIRE set. Non-retiring tables can keep allocating
entries after reaching their configured limit.
Existing vhost devices allocate their IOTLB with max_iotlb_entries from
vhost.c, which defaults to 2048 and is tunable by module parameter. Use
the caller-provided limit at the allocation point instead of adding a
separate default in the common IOTLB helper, and reject non-positive
values in vhost paths that can report an error.
Other vhost IOTLB users should not create zero-limit tables when entries
can be populated from userspace or guest-controlled requests. Add
caller-side max_iotlb_entries parameters for mlx5 vDPA, VDUSE and
vhost-vDPA. Reject non-positive VDUSE and vhost-vDPA values, and require
at least two entries for vdpa_sim and mlx5 vDPA paths that install
full-range mappings, since those mappings are split into two IOTLB
entries.
Handle full-range mappings in the common helper by checking that the
IOTLB can hold both split entries before inserting the first half. This
avoids returning an error after leaving a half mapping behind.
When the table is full, keep the existing retire behavior for retiring
tables and return -ENOSPC for non-retiring tables. Reuse the retired map
node instead of freeing it and allocating a replacement, so a stream of
IOTLB updates cannot keep forcing GFP_ATOMIC allocations after the table
has reached its limit. If a zero-limit IOTLB still reaches the common
helper, treat it as a configuration error and return -EINVAL.
