fs: sysfs: Fix reference leak in sysfs_break_active_protection()

2024-05-02T14:17:10+00:00

commit a90bca2228c0646fc29a72689d308e5fe03e6d78 upstream.

The sysfs_break_active_protection() routine has an obvious reference
leak in its error path.  If the call to kernfs_find_and_get() fails then
kn will be NULL, so the companion sysfs_unbreak_active_protection()
routine won't get called (and would only cause an access violation by
trying to dereference kn->parent if it was called).  As a result, the
reference to kobj acquired at the start of the function will never be
released.

Fix the leak by adding an explicit kobject_put() call when kn is NULL.

fs: sysfs_emit_at: Remove PAGE_SIZE alignment check

2023-03-22T12:27:08+00:00

From: Eric Biggers 

[No upstream commit because this fixes a bug in a backport.]

Before upstream commit 59bb47985c1d ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural
alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two)") which went into v5.4, kmalloc did
*not* always guarantee that PAGE_SIZE allocations are PAGE_SIZE-aligned.

Upstream commit 2efc459d06f1 ("sysfs: Add sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at
to format sysfs output") added two WARN()s that trigger when PAGE_SIZE
allocations are not PAGE_SIZE-aligned.  This was backported to old
kernels that don't guarantee PAGE_SIZE alignment.

Commit 10ddfb495232 ("fs: sysfs_emit: Remove PAGE_SIZE alignment check")
in 4.19.y, and its equivalent in 4.14.y and 4.9.y, tried to fix this
bug.  However, only it handled sysfs_emit(), not sysfs_emit_at().

Fix it in sysfs_emit_at() too.

A reproducer is to build the kernel with the following options:

	CONFIG_SLUB=y
	CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y
	CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y
	CONFIG_PM=y
	CONFIG_SUSPEND=y
	CONFIG_PM_WAKELOCKS=y

Then run:

	echo foo > /sys/power/wake_lock && cat /sys/power/wake_lock

fs: sysfs_emit: Remove PAGE_SIZE alignment check

2022-03-23T08:10:42+00:00

For kernel releases older than 4.20, using the SLUB alloctor will cause
this alignment check to fail as that allocator did NOT align kmalloc
allocations on a PAGE_SIZE boundry.

Remove the check for these older kernels as it is a false-positive and
causes problems on many devices.

sysfs: Add sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at to format sysfs output

2021-03-07T11:19:01+00:00

commit 2efc459d06f1630001e3984854848a5647086232 upstream.

Output defects can exist in sysfs content using sprintf and snprintf.

sprintf does not know the PAGE_SIZE maximum of the temporary buffer
used for outputting sysfs content and it's possible to overrun the
PAGE_SIZE buffer length.

Add a generic sysfs_emit function that knows that the size of the
temporary buffer and ensures that no overrun is done.

Add a generic sysfs_emit_at function that can be used in multiple
call situations that also ensures that no overrun is done.

Validate the output buffer argument to be page aligned.
Validate the offset len argument to be within the PAGE_SIZE buf.

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is mostly updates to the usual drivers: mpt3sas, lpfc, qla2xxx,
  hisi_sas, smartpqi, megaraid_sas, arcmsr.

  In addition, with the continuing absence of Nic we have target updates

  The biggest observable change is going to be that we're (again) trying
  to switch to mulitqueue as the default (a user can still override the
  setting on the kernel command line).

  Other major core stuff is the removal of the remaining Microchannel
  drivers, an update of the internal timers and some reworks of

sysfs: Fix regression when adding a file to an existing group

2018-07-29T20:11:28+00:00

Commit 5f81880d5204 ("sysfs, kobject: allow creating kobject belonging
to arbitrary users") incorrectly changed the argument passed as the
parent parameter when calling sysfs_add_file_mode_ns(). This caused some
sysfs attribute files to not be added correctly to certain groups.

sysfs, kobject: allow creating kobject belonging to arbitrary users

2018-07-21T06:44:35+00:00

Normally kobjects and their sysfs representation belong to global root,
however it is not necessarily the case for objects in separate namespaces.
For example, objects in separate network namespace logically belong to the
container's root and not global root.

This change lays groundwork for allowing network namespace objects
ownership to be transferred to container's root user by defining
get_ownership() callback in ktype structure and using it in sysfs code to
retrieve desired uid/gid when creating sysfs objects for given kobject.

kernfs: allow creating kernfs objects with arbitrary uid/gid

2018-07-21T06:44:35+00:00

This change allows creating kernfs files and directories with arbitrary
uid/gid instead of always using GLOBAL_ROOT_UID/GID by extending
kernfs_create_dir_ns() and kernfs_create_file_ns() with uid/gid arguments.
The "simple" kernfs_create_file() and kernfs_create_dir() are left alone
and always create objects belonging to the global root.

When creating symlinks ownership (uid/gid) is taken from the target kernfs
object.
