[ Upstream commit ed62ca2f4f51c17841ea39d98c0c409cb53a3e10 ]

While running reboot tests w/ a specific set of USB devices (and
slub_debug enabled), I found that once every few hours my device would
be crashed with a stack that looked like this:

[   14.012445] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/2091

Investigation using kgdb() found that the wait queue that was passed
into wake_up() had been freed (it was filled with slub_debug poison).

I analyzed and instrumented the code and reproduced.  My current
belief is that this is happening:

1. async_completed() is called (from IRQ).  Moves "as" onto the
   completed list.
2. On another CPU, proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() calls
   async_getcompleted().  Blocks on spinlock.
3. async_completed() releases the lock; keeps running; gets blocked
   midway through wake_up().
4. proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() =&gt; async_getcompleted() gets the
   lock; removes "as" from completed list and frees it.
5. usbdev_release() is called.  Frees "ps".
6. async_completed() finally continues running wake_up().  ...but
   wake_up() has a pointer to the freed "ps".

The instrumentation that led me to believe this was based on adding
some trace_printk() calls in a select few functions and then using
kdb's "ftdump" at crash time.  The trace follows (NOTE: in the trace
below I cheated a little bit and added a udelay(1000) in
async_completed() after releasing the spinlock because I wanted it to
trigger quicker):

&lt;...&gt;-2104   0d.h2 13759034us!: async_completed at start: as=ffffffc0cc638200
mtpd-2055    3.... 13759356us : async_getcompleted before spin_lock_irqsave
mtpd-2055    3d..1 13759362us : async_getcompleted after list_del_init: as=ffffffc0cc638200
mtpd-2055    3.... 13759371us+: proc_reapurbnonblock_compat: free_async(ffffffc0cc638200)
mtpd-2055    3.... 13759422us+: async_getcompleted before spin_lock_irqsave
mtpd-2055    3.... 13759479us : usbdev_release at start: ps=ffffffc0cc042080

mtpd-2055    3.... 13759497us!: usbdev_release after kfree(ps): ps=ffffffc0cc042080
&lt;...&gt;-2104   0d.h2 13760294us : async_completed before wake_up(): as=ffffffc0cc638200

To fix this problem we can just move the wake_up() under the ps-&gt;lock.
There should be no issues there that I'm aware of.

[ Upstream commit 2f964780c03b73de269b08d12aff96a9618d13f3 ]

Format specifier %p can leak kernel addresses while not valuing the
kptr_restrict system settings. When kptr_restrict is set to (1), kernel
pointers printed using the %pK format specifier will be replaced with
Zeros. Debugging Note : &amp;pK prints only Zeros as address. If you need
actual address information, write 0 to kptr_restrict.

echo 0 &gt; /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict

[Found by poking around in a random vendor kernel tree, it would be nice
if someone would actually send these types of patches upstream - gkh]

<title>USB: avoid left shift by -1</title>

[ Upstream commit 53e5f36fbd2453ad69a3369a1db62dc06c30a4aa ]

UBSAN complains about a left shift by -1 in proc_do_submiturb().  This
can occur when an URB is submitted for a bulk or control endpoint on
a high-speed device, since the code doesn't bother to check the
endpoint type; normally only interrupt or isochronous endpoints have
a nonzero bInterval value.

Aside from the fact that the operation is illegal, it shouldn't matter
because the result isn't used.  Still, in theory it could cause a
hardware exception or other problem, so we should work around it.
This patch avoids doing the left shift unless the shift amount is &gt;= 0.

The same piece of code has another problem.  When checking the device
speed (the exponential encoding for interrupt endpoints is used only
by high-speed or faster devices), we need to look for speed &gt;=
USB_SPEED_SUPER as well as speed == USB_SPEED HIGH.  The patch adds
this check.

Static checkers complain that the current condition is never true.  It

When a signal is delivered, the information in the siginfo structure
is copied to userspace.  Good security practice dicatates that the
unused fields in this structure should be initialized to 0 so that
random kernel stack data isn't exposed to the user.  This patch adds
such an initialization to the two places where usbfs raises signals.

The usbfs API has a peculiar hole: Users are not allowed to reap their
URBs after the device has been disconnected.  There doesn't seem to be
any good reason for this; it is an ad-hoc inconsistency.

The patch allows users to issue the USBDEVFS_REAPURB and
USBDEVFS_REAPURBNDELAY ioctls (together with their 32-bit counterparts
on 64-bit systems) even after the device is gone.  If no URBs are
pending for a disconnected device then the ioctls will return -ENODEV
rather than -EAGAIN, because obviously no new URBs will ever be able
to complete.

The patch also adds a new capability flag for
USBDEVFS_GET_CAPABILITIES to indicate that the reap-after-disconnect
feature is supported.

<title>USB: devio: fix issue with log flooding</title>

usbfs allows user space to pass down an URB which sets URB_SHORT_NOT_OK
for output URBs. That causes usbcore to log messages without limit
for a nonsensical disallowed combination. The fix is to silently drop
the attribute in usbfs.
The problem is reported to exist since 3.14

Since it is needed outside usbcore and exposed in include/linux/usb.h,
it conflicts with enum dev_state in rt2x00 wireless driver.

Mark it as usb specific to avoid conflicts in the future.
