commit 72ec0bc64b9a5d8e0efcb717abfc757746b101b7 upstream.

In functions team_nl_send_port_list_get() and
team_nl_send_options_get(), pointer skb keeps the return value of
nlmsg_new(). When the call to genlmsg_put() fails, the memory is not
freed(). This will result in memory leak bugs.

<title>macvlan: Fix device ref leak when purging bc_queue</title>

commit f6478218e6edc2a587b8f132f66373baa7b2497c upstream.

When a parent macvlan device is destroyed we end up purging its
broadcast queue without dropping the device reference count on
the packet source device.  This causes the source device to linger.

This patch drops that reference count.

commit 11faa7b0359aaf7efd406b7a6a077fda2b037d8e upstream.

We dereference "skb" to get "skb-&gt;len" so we should probably do that
step before freeing the skb.

commit d532c1082f68176363ed766d09bf187616e282fe upstream.

We need to ensure there is enough headroom to push extra header,
but we also need to check if we are allowed to change headers.

skb_cow_head() is the proper helper to deal with this.

<title>include/linux/kernel.h: change abs() macro so it uses consistent return type</title>

<id>bc11e0dc1d3f642bb1f14e3a29549ae838d7ba0d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8f57e4d930d48217268315898212518d4d3e0773 upstream.

Rewrite abs() so that its return type does not depend on the
architecture and no unexpected type conversion happen inside of it.  The
only conversion is from unsigned to signed type.  char is left as a
return type but treated as a signed type regradless of it's actual
signedness.

With the old version, int arguments were promoted to long and depending
on architecture a long argument might result in s64 or long return type
(which may or may not be the same).

This came after some back and forth with Nicolas.  The current macro has
different return type (for the same input type) depending on
architecture which might be midly iritating.

An alternative version would promote to int like so:

	#define abs(x)	__abs_choose_expr(x, long long,			\
			__abs_choose_expr(x, long,			\
			__builtin_choose_expr(				\
				sizeof(x) &lt;= sizeof(int),		\
				({ int __x = (x); __x&lt;0?-__x:__x; }),	\
				((void)0))))

I have no preference but imagine Linus might.  :] Nicolas argument against
is that promoting to int causes iconsistent behaviour:

	int main(void) {
		unsigned short a = 0, b = 1, c = a - b;
		unsigned short d = abs(a - b);
		unsigned short e = abs(c);
		printf("%u %u\n", d, e);  // prints: 1 65535
	}

Then again, no sane person expects consistent behaviour from C integer
arithmetic.  ;)

Note:

  __builtin_types_compatible_p(unsigned char, char) is always false, and
  __builtin_types_compatible_p(signed char, char) is also always false.

If the PHY is halted on stop, then do not set the state to PHY_UP.  This
ensures the phy will be restarted later in phy_start when the machine is
started again.

commit 13e2d5187f6b965ba3556caedb914baf81b98ed2 upstream.

We could allocate less memory than intended because we do:

	bnad-&gt;regdata = kzalloc(len &lt;&lt; 2, GFP_KERNEL);

The shift can overflow leading to a crash.  This is debugfs code so the
impact is very small.

commit 6e526fdff7be4f13b24f929a04c0e9ae6761291e upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer or accessing memory beyond the endpoint array should a
malicious device lack the expected endpoints.

The endpoints are specifically dereferenced in the i2400m_bootrom_init
path during probe (e.g. in i2400mu_tx_bulk_out).

Fixes: f398e4240fce ("i2400m/USB: probe/disconnect, dev init/shutdown
and reset backends")
