<title>sctp: validate from_addr_param return</title>

commit 0c5dc070ff3d6246d22ddd931f23a6266249e3db upstream.

Ilja reported that, simply putting it, nothing was validating that
from_addr_param functions were operating on initialized memory. That is,
the parameter itself was being validated by sctp_walk_params, but it
doesn't check for types and their specific sizes and it could be a 0-length
one, causing from_addr_param to potentially work over the next parameter or
even uninitialized memory.

The fix here is to, in all calls to from_addr_param, check if enough space
is there for the wanted IP address type.

commit e8f71f89236ef82d449991bfbc237e3cb6ea584f upstream.

nvkm test builds fail with the following error.

  drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/device/ctrl.c: In function 'nvkm_control_mthd_pstate_info':
  drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/device/ctrl.c:60:35: error: overflow in conversion from 'int' to '__s8' {aka 'signed char'} changes value from '-251' to '5'

The code builds on most architectures, but fails on parisc where ENOSYS
is defined as 251.

Replace the error code with -ENODEV (-19).  The actual error code does
not really matter and is not passed to userspace - it just has to be
negative.

[ Upstream commit 884f0e84f1e3195b801319c8ec3d5774e9bf2710 ]

The pending timer has been set up in blk_throtl_init(). However, the
timer is not deleted in blk_throtl_exit(). This means that the timer
handler may still be running after freeing the timer, which would
result in a use-after-free.

Fix by calling del_timer_sync() to delete the timer in blk_throtl_exit().

[ Upstream commit dbc6e7d44a514f231a64d9d5676e001b660b6448 ]

In nilfs_##name##_attr_release, kobj-&gt;parent should not be referenced
because it is a NULL pointer.  The release() method of kobject is always
called in kobject_put(kobj), in the implementation of kobject_put(), the
kobj-&gt;parent will be assigned as NULL before call the release() method.
So just use kobj to get the subgroups, which is more efficient and can fix
a NULL pointer reference problem.

[ Upstream commit dbc6e7d44a514f231a64d9d5676e001b660b6448 ]

In nilfs_##name##_attr_release, kobj-&gt;parent should not be referenced
because it is a NULL pointer.  The release() method of kobject is always
called in kobject_put(kobj), in the implementation of kobject_put(), the
kobj-&gt;parent will be assigned as NULL before call the release() method.
So just use kobj to get the subgroups, which is more efficient and can fix
a NULL pointer reference problem.

[ Upstream commit 5f5dec07aca7067216ed4c1342e464e7307a9197 ]

Patch series "nilfs2: fix incorrect usage of kobject".

This patchset from Nanyong Sun fixes memory leak issues and a NULL
pointer dereference issue caused by incorrect usage of kboject in nilfs2
sysfs implementation.

This patch (of 6):

If kobject_init_and_add return with error, then the cleanup of kobject
is needed because memory may be allocated in kobject_init_and_add
without freeing.

And the place of cleanup_dev_kobject should use kobject_put to free the
memory associated with the kobject.  As the section "Kobject removal" of
"Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst" says, kobject_del() just makes the
kobject "invisible", but it is not cleaned up.  And no more cleanup will
do after cleanup_dev_kobject, so kobject_put is needed here.
