2016-01-09compat_ioctl: don't call do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS)Jann Horn
This replaces all code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translated ioctl arguments into a in-kernel structure, then performed do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), with code that allocates data on the user stack and can call the VFS ioctl handler under USER_DS. This is done as a hardening measure because the caller does not know what kind of ioctl handler will be invoked, only that no corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists and what the ioctl command number is. The accidental invocation of an unlocked_ioctl handler that unexpectedly calls copy_to_user could be a severe security issue.

2016-01-09compat_ioctl: don't look up the fd twiceJann Horn
In code in fs/compat_ioctl.c that translates ioctl arguments into a in-kernel structure, then performs sys_ioctl, possibly under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), this commit changes the sys_ioctl calls to do_ioctl calls. do_ioctl is a new function that does the same thing as sys_ioctl, but doesn't look up the fd again. This change is made to avoid (potential) security issues because of ioctl handlers that accept one of the ioctl commands I2C_FUNCS, VIDEO_GET_EVENT, MTIOCPOS, MTIOCGET, TIOCGSERIAL, TIOCSSERIAL, RTC_IRQP_READ, RTC_EPOCH_READ. This can happen for multiple reasons: - The ioctl command number could be reused. - The ioctl handler might not check the full ioctl command. This is e.g. true for drm_ioctl. - The ioctl handler is very special, e.g. cuse_file_ioctl The real issue is that set_fs(KERNEL_DS) is used here, but that's fixed in a separate commit "compat_ioctl: don't call do_ioctl under set_fs(KERNEL_DS)". This change mitigates potential security issues by preventing a race that permits invocation of unlocked_ioctl handlers under KERNEL_DS through compat code even if a corresponding compat_ioctl handler exists. So far, no way has been identified to use this to damage kernel memory without having CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the init ns (with the capability, doing reads/writes at arbitrary kernel addresses should be easy through CUSE's ioctl handler with FUSE_IOCTL_UNRESTRICTED set).

2015-12-30sctp: sctp should release assoc when sctp_make_abort_user return NULL in ↵Xin Long
sctp_close In sctp_close, sctp_make_abort_user may return NULL because of memory allocation failure. If this happens, it will bypass any state change and never free the assoc. The assoc has no chance to be freed and it will be kept in memory with the state it had even after the socket is closed by sctp_close(). So if sctp_make_abort_user fails to allocate memory, we should abort the asoc via sctp_primitive_ABORT as well. Just like the annotation in sctp_sf_cookie_wait_prm_abort and sctp_sf_do_9_1_prm_abort said, "Even if we can't send the ABORT due to low memory delete the TCB. This is a departure from our typical NOMEM handling". But then the chunk is NULL (low memory) and the SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd would dereference the chunk pointer, and system crash. So we should add SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd only when the chunk is not NULL, just like other places where it adds SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd.

2015-12-30net, socket, socket_wq: fix missing initialization of flagsNicolai Stange
Commit ceb5d58b2170 ("net: fix sock_wake_async() rcu protection") from the current 4.4 release cycle introduced a new flags member in struct socket_wq and moved SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA from struct socket's flags member into that new place. Unfortunately, the new flags field is never initialized properly, at least not for the struct socket_wq instance created in sock_alloc_inode(). One particular issue I encountered because of this is that my GNU Emacs failed to draw anything on my desktop -- i.e. what I got is a transparent window, including the title bar. Bisection lead to the commit mentioned above and further investigation by means of strace told me that Emacs is indeed speaking to my Xorg through an O_ASYNC AF_UNIX socket. This is reproducible 100% of times and the fact that properly initializing the struct socket_wq ->flags fixes the issue leads me to the conclusion that somehow SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA got set in the uninitialized ->flags, preventing my Emacs from receiving any SIGIO's due to data becoming available and it got stuck. Make sock_alloc_inode() set the newly created struct socket_wq's ->flags member to zero.

2015-12-30drm/i915: increase the tries for HDMI hotplug live status checkingGary Wang
The total delay of HDMI hotplug detecting with 30ms is sometimes not enoughtfor HDMI live status up with specific HDMI monitors in BSW platform. After doing experiments for following monitors, it needs 80ms at least for those worst cases. Lenovo L246 1xwA (4 failed, necessary hot-plug delay: 58/40/60/40ms) Philips HH2AP (9 failed, necessary hot-plug delay: 80/50/50/60/46/40/58/58/39ms) BENQ ET-0035-N (6 failed, necessary hot-plug delay: 60/50/50/80/80/40ms) DELL U2713HM (2 failed, necessary hot-plug delay: 58/59ms) HP HP-LP2475w (5 failed, necessary hot-plug delay: 70/50/40/60/40ms) It looks like 70-80 ms is BSW platform needs in some bad cases of the monitors at this end (8 times delay at most). Keep less than 100ms for HDCP pulse HPD low (with at least 100ms) to respond a plug out.

2015-12-30mm/vmstat: fix overflow in mod_zone_page_state()Heiko Carstens
mod_zone_page_state() takes a "delta" integer argument. delta contains the number of pages that should be added or subtracted from a struct zone's vm_stat field. If a zone is larger than 8TB this will cause overflows. E.g. for a zone with a size slightly larger than 8TB the line mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_ALLOC_BATCH, zone->managed_pages); in mm/page_alloc.c:free_area_init_core() will result in a negative result for the NR_ALLOC_BATCH entry within the zone's vm_stat, since 8TB contain 0x8xxxxxxx pages which will be sign extended to a negative value. Fix this by changing the delta argument to long type. This could fix an early boot problem seen on s390, where we have a 9TB system with only one node. ZONE_DMA contains 2GB and ZONE_NORMAL the rest. The system is trying to allocate a GFP_DMA page but ZONE_DMA is completely empty, so it tries to reclaim pages in an endless loop. This was seen on a heavily patched 3.10 kernel. One possible explaination seem to be the overflows caused by mod_zone_page_state(). Unfortunately I did not have the chance to verify that this patch actually fixes the problem, since I don't have access to the system right now. However the overflow problem does exist anyway. Given the description that a system with slightly less than 8TB does work, this seems to be a candidate for the observed problem.
