commit f596c87005f7b1baeb7d62d9a9e25d68c3dfae10 upstream.

As the description before netdev_run_todo, we cannot call free_netdev
before rtnl_unlock, fix it by reorder the code.

commit e58c1912418980f57ba2060017583067f5f71e52 upstream.

Slip_open doesn't clean-up device which registration failed from the
slip_devs device list. On next open after failure this list is iterated
and freed device is accessed. Fix this by calling sl_free_netdev in error
path.

<title>can, slip: Protect tty-&gt;disc_data in write_wakeup and close with RCU</title>

commit 0ace17d56824165c7f4c68785d6b58971db954dd upstream.

write_wakeup can happen in parallel with close/hangup where tty-&gt;disc_data
is set to NULL and the netdevice is freed thus also freeing
disc_data. write_wakeup accesses disc_data so we must prevent close from
freeing the netdev while write_wakeup has a non-NULL view of
tty-&gt;disc_data.

We also need to make sure that accesses to disc_data are atomic. Which can
all be done with RCU.

This problem was found by Syzkaller on SLCAN, but the same issue is
reproducible with the SLIP line discipline using an LTP test based on the
Syzkaller reproducer.

A fix which didn't use RCU was posted by Hillf Danton.

<title>slip: make slhc_free() silently accept an error pointer</title>

commit baf76f0c58aec435a3a864075b8f6d8ee5d1f17e upstream.

This way, slhc_free() accepts what slhc_init() returns, whether that is
an error or not.

In particular, the pattern in sl_alloc_bufs() is

        slcomp = slhc_init(16, 16);
        ...
        slhc_free(slcomp);

for the error handling path, and rather than complicate that code, just
make it ok to always free what was returned by the init function.

That's what the code used to do before commit 4ab42d78e37a ("ppp, slip:
Validate VJ compression slot parameters completely") when slhc_init()
just returned NULL for the error case, with no actual indication of the
details of the error.

commit 936e5d8bdfa72577e28ea671d9e2ee4fef0d6b3e upstream.

The first and only parameter of sl_alloc() is unused, so remove it.

commit 4ab42d78e37a294ac7bc56901d563c642e03c4ae upstream.

Currently slhc_init() treats out-of-range values of rslots and tslots
as equivalent to 0, except that if tslots is too large it will
dereference a null pointer (CVE-2015-7799).

Add a range-check at the top of the function and make it return an
ERR_PTR() on error instead of NULL.  Change the callers accordingly.

Compile-tested only.

<title>slip: Fix deadlock in write_wakeup</title>

<content type='text'>
Use schedule_work() to avoid potentially taking the spinlock in
interrupt context.

Commit cc9fa74e2a ("slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function") added
necessary locking to the wakeup function and 367525c8c2/ddcde142be ("can:
slcan: Fix spinlock variant") converted it to spin_lock_bh() because the lock
is also taken in timers.

Disabling softirqs is not sufficient, however, as tty drivers may call
write_wakeup from interrupt context. This driver calls tty-&gt;ops-&gt;write() with
its spinlock held, which may immediately cause an interrupt on the same CPU and
subsequent spin_bug().

Simply converting to spin_lock_irq/irqsave() prevents this deadlock, but
causes lockdep to point out a possible circular locking dependency
between these locks:

(&amp;(&amp;sl-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock){-.....}, at: slip_write_wakeup
(&amp;port_lock_key){-.....}, at: serial8250_handle_irq.part.13

The slip transmit is holding the slip spinlock when calling the tty write.
This grabs the port lock. On an interrupt, the handler grabs the port
lock and calls write_wakeup which grabs the slip lock. This could be a
problem if a serial interrupt occurs on another CPU during the slip
transmit.

To deal with these issues, don't grab the lock in the wakeup function by
deferring the writeout to a workqueue. Also hold the lock during close
when de-assigning the tty pointer to safely disarm the worker and
timers.

This bug is easily reproducible on the first transmit when slip is
used with the standard 8250 serial driver.

With commit cc9fa74e2a ("slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function") a
formerly missing locking was added to slip.c and slcan.c by Andre Naujoks.

Alexander Stein contributed the fix 367525c8c2 ("can: slcan: Fix spinlock

of just using spin_lock().

This fix has to be applied to the same code section in slip.c for the same
reason too.

The locking is needed, since the the internal buffer for the CAN frames is
changed during the wakeup call. This could cause buffer inconsistencies
under high loads, especially for the outgoing short CAN packet skbuffs.

The needed locks led to deadlocks before commit
"5ede52538ee2b2202d9dff5b06c33bfde421e6e4 tty: Remove extra wakeup from pty
write() path", which removed the direct callback to the wakeup function from the
tty layer.

As slcan.c is based on slip.c the issue in the original code is fixed, too.
