commit 6183468a23fc6b6903f8597982017ad2c7fdefcf upstream.

Similar to commit fcd2042e8d36 ("mwifiex: printk() overflow with 32-byte
SSIDs"), we failed to account for the existence of 32-char SSIDs in our
debugfs code. Unlike in that case though, we zeroed out the containing
struct first, and I'm pretty sure we're guaranteed to have some padding
after the 'ssid.ssid' and 'ssid.ssid_len' fields (the struct is 33 bytes
long).

So, this is the difference between:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef "
  ...

and the correct output:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
  ...

[ Upstream commit 837585a5375c38d40361cfe64e6fd11e1addb936 ]

When IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled, a virtio_net header must precede data.
Data length is verified to be greater than or equal to expected header
length tun-&gt;vnet_hdr_sz before copying.

Macvtap functions read the value once, but unless READ_ONCE is used,
the compiler may ignore this and read multiple times. Enforce a single
read and locally cached value to avoid updates between test and use.

commit 2eb783c43e7cf807a45899c10ed556b6dc116625 upstream.

We set the flag TUN_PKT_STRIP if the user buffer provided is too
small to contain the entire packet plus meta-data.  However, this
has been broken ever since we added GSO meta-data.  VLAN acceleration
also has the same problem.

This patch fixes this by taking both into account when setting the
TUN_PKT_STRIP flag.

The fact that this has been broken for six years without anyone
realising means that nobody actually uses this flag.

[ Upstream commit 06ba3b2133dc203e1e9bc36cee7f0839b79a9e8b ]

The sky2 frequently crashes during machine shutdown with:

sky2_get_stats+0x60/0x3d8 [sky2]

rtnl_fill_stats+0x54/0x140

worker_thread+0x60/0x44c
kthread+0xdc/0xf0
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50

This is caused by the sky2 being called after it has been shutdown.
A previous thread about this can be found here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/12/410

An alternative fix is to assure that IFF_UP gets cleared by
calling dev_close() during shutdown. This is similar to what the
bnx2/tg3/xgene and maybe others are doing to assure that the driver
isn't being called following _shutdown().

commit cd224553641848dd17800fe559e4ff5d208553e8 upstream.

xilinx_emaclite looks at the received data to try to determine the
Ethernet packet length but does not properly clamp it if
proto_type == ETH_P_IP or 1500 &lt; proto_type &lt;= 1518, causing a buffer
overflow and a panic via skb_panic() as the length exceeds the allocated
skb size.

Fix those cases.

Also add an additional unconditional check with WARN_ON() at the end.

commit 74470954857c264168d2b5a113904cf0cfd27d18 upstream.

rx_refill_timer should be deleted as soon as we disconnect from the
backend since otherwise it is possible for the timer to go off before
we get to xennet_destroy_queues(). If this happens we may dereference
queue-&gt;rx.sring which is set to NULL in xennet_disconnect_backend().

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: there's only one RX queue here, and del_timer_sync()

commit 2d6a0e9de03ee658a9adc3bfb2f0ca55dff1e478 upstream.

Allocating USB buffers on the stack is not portable, and no longer
works on x86_64 (with VMAP_STACK enabled as per default).

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
