[ Upstream commit 901aeda62efa21f2eae937bccb71b49ae531be06 ]

In preparation to limit the scope of a list iterator to the list
traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer to iterate through the list [1].

Since that variable should not be used past the loop iteration, a
separate variable is used to 'remember the current location within the
loop'.

To either continue iterating from that position or skip the iteration
(if the previous iteration was complete) list_prepare_entry() is used.

<title>floppy: use a statically allocated error counter</title>

commit f71f01394f742fc4558b3f9f4c7ef4c4cf3b07c8 upstream.

Interrupt handler bad_flp_intr() may cause a UAF on the recently freed
request just to increment the error count.  There's no point keeping
that one in the request anyway, and since the interrupt handler uses a
static pointer to the error which cannot be kept in sync with the
pending request, better make it use a static error counter that's reset
for each new request.  This reset now happens when entering
redo_fd_request() for a new request via set_next_request().

One initial concern about a single error counter was that errors on one
floppy drive could be reported on another one, but this problem is not
real given that the driver uses a single drive at a time, as that
PC-compatible controllers also have this limitation by using shared
signals.  As such the error count is always for the "current" drive.

commit 233087ca063686964a53c829d547c7571e3f67bf upstream.

Minh Yuan reported a concurrency use-after-free issue in the floppy code
between raw_cmd_ioctl and seek_interrupt.

[ It turns out this has been around, and that others have reported the
  KASAN splats over the years, but Minh Yuan had a reproducer for it and
  so gets primary credit for reporting it for this fix   - Linus ]

The problem is, this driver tends to break very easily and nowadays,
nobody is expected to use FDRAWCMD anyway since it was used to
manipulate non-standard formats.  The risk of breaking the driver is
higher than the risk presented by this race, and accessing the device
requires privileges anyway.

Let's just add a config option to completely disable this ioctl and
leave it disabled by default.  Distros shouldn't use it, and only those
running on antique hardware might need to enable it.

[ Upstream commit aadb22ba2f656581b2f733deb3a467c48cc618f6 ]

In get_initial_state, it calls notify_initial_state_done(skb,..) if
cb-&gt;args[5]==1. If genlmsg_put() failed in notify_initial_state_done(),
the skb will be freed by nlmsg_free(skb).
Then get_initial_state will goto out and the freed skb will be used by
return value skb-&gt;len, which is a uaf bug.

What's worse, the same problem goes even further: skb can also be
freed in the notify_*_state_change -&gt; notify_*_state calls below.
Thus 4 additional uaf bugs happened.

My patch lets the problem callee functions: notify_initial_state_done
and notify_*_state_change return an error code if errors happen.
So that the error codes could be propagated and the uaf bugs can be avoid.

v2 reports a compilation warning. This v3 fixed this warning and built
successfully in my local environment with no additional warnings.

<title>drbd: fix potential silent data corruption</title>

commit f4329d1f848ac35757d9cc5487669d19dfc5979c upstream.

Scenario:
---------

bio chain generated by blk_queue_split().
Some split bio fails and propagates its error status to the "parent" bio.
But then the (last part of the) parent bio itself completes without error.

We would clobber the already recorded error status with BLK_STS_OK,
causing silent data corruption.

Reproducer:
-----------

How to trigger this in the real world within seconds:

DRBD on top of degraded parity raid,
small stripe_cache_size, large read_ahead setting.
Drop page cache (sysctl vm.drop_caches=1, fadvise "DONTNEED",
umount and mount again, "reboot").

Cause significant read ahead.

Large read ahead request is split by blk_queue_split().
Parts of the read ahead that are already in the stripe cache,
or find an available stripe cache to use, can be serviced.
Parts of the read ahead that would need "too much work",
would need to wait for a "stripe_head" to become available,
are rejected immediately.

For larger read ahead requests that are split in many pieces, it is very
likely that some "splits" will be serviced, but then the stripe cache is
exhausted/busy, and the remaining ones will be rejected.

commit f4329d1f848ac35757d9cc5487669d19dfc5979c upstream.

Scenario:
---------

bio chain generated by blk_queue_split().
Some split bio fails and propagates its error status to the "parent" bio.
But then the (last part of the) parent bio itself completes without error.

We would clobber the already recorded error status with BLK_STS_OK,
causing silent data corruption.

Reproducer:
-----------

How to trigger this in the real world within seconds:

DRBD on top of degraded parity raid,
small stripe_cache_size, large read_ahead setting.
Drop page cache (sysctl vm.drop_caches=1, fadvise "DONTNEED",
umount and mount again, "reboot").

Cause significant read ahead.

Large read ahead request is split by blk_queue_split().
Parts of the read ahead that are already in the stripe cache,
or find an available stripe cache to use, can be serviced.
Parts of the read ahead that would need "too much work",
would need to wait for a "stripe_head" to become available,
are rejected immediately.

For larger read ahead requests that are split in many pieces, it is very
likely that some "splits" will be serviced, but then the stripe cache is
exhausted/busy, and the remaining ones will be rejected.

commit 57a13a5b8157d9a8606490aaa1b805bafe6c37e1 upstream.

The block layer can't support a block size larger than
page size yet. And a block size that's too small or
not a power of two won't work either. If a misconfigured
device presents an invalid block size in configuration space,
it will result in the kernel crash something like below:

<title>xen/blkfront: don't use gnttab_query_foreign_access() for mapped status</title>

Commit abf1fd5919d6238ee3bc5eb4a9b6c3947caa6638 upstream.

It isn't enough to check whether a grant is still being in use by
calling gnttab_query_foreign_access(), as a mapping could be realized
by the other side just after having called that function.

In case the call was done in preparation of revoking a grant it is
better to do so via gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref() and check the
success of that operation instead.

For the ring allocation use alloc_pages_exact() in order to avoid
high order pages in case of a multi-page ring.

If a grant wasn't unmapped by the backend without persistent grants
being used, set the device state to "error".

This is CVE-2022-23036 / part of XSA-396.
