commit 3ead7c52bdb0ab44f4bb1feed505a8323cc12ba7 upstream.

This function may copy the si_addr_lsb field to user mode when it hasn't
been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode.

Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same
si_code value is shared between multiple signals.  This is solved by
checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.

<title>ocfs2: fix BUG in ocfs2_downconvert_thread_do_work()</title>

commit 209f7512d007980fd111a74a064d70a3656079cf upstream.

The "BUG_ON(list_empty(&amp;osb-&gt;blocked_lock_list))" in
ocfs2_downconvert_thread_do_work can be triggered in the following case:

ocfs2dc has firstly saved osb-&gt;blocked_lock_count to local varibale
processed, and then processes the dentry lockres.  During the dentry
put, it calls iput and then deletes rw, inode and open lockres from
blocked list in ocfs2_mark_lockres_freeing.  And this causes the
variable `processed' to not reflect the number of blocked lockres to be
processed, which triggers the BUG.

commit 8f2f3eb59dff4ec538de55f2e0592fec85966aab upstream.

fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can race with
fsnotify_destroy_marks() so that when fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked()
drops mark_mutex, a mark from the list iterated by
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group_flags() can be freed and thus the next
entry pointer we have cached may become stale and we dereference free
memory.

Fix the problem by first moving marks to free to a special private list
and then always free the first entry in the special list.  This method
is safe even when entries from the list can disappear once we drop the
lock.

<title>freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed</title>

commit 75a6f82a0d10ef8f13cd8fe7212911a0252ab99e upstream.

	Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have
the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and
has no remaining links, of course).  However, there's one case where that
does *not* happen.  Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache,
then unlink() and close().

	In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry
is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from
dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal.  In this case, though, we end
up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and
regular one (used by unlink()).  The latter will have its reference to inode
dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it
is on the -&gt;s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure
will finally do it in.  As the result, we have the final iput() delayed
indefinitely.  It's trivial to reproduce -

void flush_dcache(void)
{
        system("mount -o remount,rw /");
}

static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024];

main()
{
        int fd;
        union {
                struct file_handle f;
                char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ];
        } x;
        int m;

        x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x);
        chdir("/root");
        mkdir("foo", 0700);
        fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600);
        close(fd);
        name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &amp;x.f, &amp;m, 0);
        flush_dcache();
        fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &amp;x.f, O_RDWR);
        unlink("foo/bar");
        write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
        system("df .");			/* 20Mb eaten */
        close(fd);
        system("df .");			/* should've freed those 20Mb */
        flush_dcache();
        system("df .");			/* should be the same as #2 */
}

will spit out something like
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /

/dev/root         322023 283282     21692  93% /
- inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger
than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory
pressure hell knows when).

commit e8d975e73e5fa05f983fbf2723120edcf68e0b38 upstream.

Problem: When an operation like WRITE receives a BAD_STATEID, even though
recovery code clears the RECLAIM_NOGRACE recovery flag before recovering
the open state, because of clearing delegation state for the associated
inode, nfs_inode_find_state_and_recover() gets called and it makes the
same state with RECLAIM_NOGRACE flag again. As a results, when we restart
looking over the open states, we end up in the infinite loop instead of
breaking out in the next test of state flags.

Solution: unset the RECLAIM_NOGRACE set because of
calling of nfs_inode_find_state_and_recover() after returning from calling
recover_open() function.

commit d683cc49daf7c5afca8cd9654aaa1bf63cdf2ad9 upstream.

When encoding the NFSACL SETACL operation, reserve just the estimated
size of the ACL rather than a fixed maximum. This eliminates needless
zero padding on the wire that the server ignores.

commit 0ad0b3255a08020eaf50e34ef0d6df5bdf5e09ed upstream.

fc-&gt;release is called from fuse_conn_put() which was used in the error
cleanup before fc-&gt;release was initialized.

[Jeremiah Mahler &lt;jmmahler@gmail.com&gt;: assign fc-&gt;release after calling
fuse_conn_init(fc) instead of before.]

<title>Btrfs: use kmem_cache_free when freeing entry in inode cache</title>

commit c3f4a1685bb87e59c886ee68f7967eae07d4dffa upstream.

The free space entries are allocated using kmem_cache_zalloc(),
through __btrfs_add_free_space(), therefore we should use
kmem_cache_free() and not kfree() to avoid any confusion and
any potential problem. Looking at the kfree() definition at
mm/slab.c it has the following comment:

  /*
   * (...)
   *
   * Don't free memory not originally allocated by kmalloc()
   * or you will run into trouble.
   */

So better be safe and use kmem_cache_free().
