commit 759c01142a5d0f364a462346168a56de28a80f52 upstream.

On no-so-small systems, it is possible for a single process to cause an
OOM condition by filling large pipes with data that are never read. A
typical process filling 4000 pipes with 1 MB of data will use 4 GB of
memory. On small systems it may be tricky to set the pipe max size to
prevent this from happening.

This patch makes it possible to enforce a per-user soft limit above
which new pipes will be limited to a single page, effectively limiting
them to 4 kB each, as well as a hard limit above which no new pipes may
be created for this user. This has the effect of protecting the system
against memory abuse without hurting other users, and still allowing
pipes to work correctly though with less data at once.

The limit are controlled by two new sysctls : pipe-user-pages-soft, and
pipe-user-pages-hard. Both may be disabled by setting them to zero. The
default soft limit allows the default number of FDs per process (1024)
to create pipes of the default size (64kB), thus reaching a limit of 64MB
before starting to create only smaller pipes. With 256 processes limited
to 1024 FDs each, this results in 1024*64kB + (256*1024 - 1024) * 4kB =
1084 MB of memory allocated for a user. The hard limit is disabled by
default to avoid breaking existing applications that make intensive use
of pipes (eg: for splicing).

Commit c66edeaf79bb6f0ca688ffec9ca50a61b7569984, which was a backport of
commit b1438f477934f5a4d5a44df26f3079a7575d5946 upstream, needed to have
the error value be positive, not negative, in order to work properly.

commit 3d56c25e3bb0726a5c5e16fc2d9e38f8ed763085 upstream.

Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child
dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay.  Unfortunately, in
quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as
the result.

Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever
been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it
ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and
covers all cases the old rule used to cover.  Moreover, pipes and
sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in
the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional
in the first place.

This prevents users from triggering a stack overflow through a recursive

commit b1438f477934f5a4d5a44df26f3079a7575d5946 upstream.

When a failure due to an inode buffer occurs, the error handling
fails to abort the inode writeback correctly. This can result in the
inode being reclaimed whilst still in the AIL, leading to
use-after-free situations as well as filesystems that cannot be
unmounted as the inode log items left in the AIL never get removed.

Fix this by ensuring fatal errors from xfs_imap_to_bp() result in
the inode flush being aborted correctly.

<title>ext4: silence UBSAN in ext4_mb_init()</title>

<id>6871905c9ab0604469f35b36a0aa13e117deb0f0</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 935244cd54b86ca46e69bc6604d2adfb1aec2d42 upstream.

Currently, in ext4_mb_init(), there's a loop like the following:

  do {
    ...
    offset += 1 &lt;&lt; (sb-&gt;s_blocksize_bits - i);
    i++;
  } while (i &lt;= sb-&gt;s_blocksize_bits + 1);

Note that the updated offset is used in the loop's next iteration only.

However, at the last iteration, that is at i == sb-&gt;s_blocksize_bits + 1,
the shift count becomes equal to (unsigned)-1 &gt; 31 (c.f. C99 6.5.7(3))
and UBSAN reports

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in fs/ext4/mballoc.c:2621:15
  shift exponent 4294967295 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'
  [...]
  Call Trace:

   [&lt;ffffffff814b6dc1&gt;] ? kmem_cache_alloc+0x101/0x390
   [&lt;ffffffff816fc13b&gt;] ? ext4_mb_init+0x13b/0xfd0
   [&lt;ffffffff814293c7&gt;] ? create_cache+0x57/0x1f0
   [&lt;ffffffff8142948a&gt;] ? create_cache+0x11a/0x1f0

   [&lt;ffffffff816fcc49&gt;] ext4_mb_init+0xc49/0xfd0
   [...]

Observe that the mentioned shift exponent, 4294967295, equals (unsigned)-1.

Unless compilers start to do some fancy transformations (which at least
GCC 6.0.0 doesn't currently do), the issue is of cosmetic nature only: the
such calculated value of offset is never used again.

Silence UBSAN by introducing another variable, offset_incr, holding the
next increment to apply to offset and adjust that one by right shifting it
by one position per loop iteration.

Observe that the mentioned shift exponent, 4294967295, equals (unsigned)-1.

Unless compilers start to do some fancy transformations (which at least
GCC 6.0.0 doesn't currently do), the issue is of cosmetic nature only: the
such calculated value of offset is never used again.

Silence UBSAN by introducing another variable, offset_incr, holding the
next increment to apply to offset and adjust that one by right shifting it
by one position per loop iteration.

commit b5cb316cdf3a3f5f6125412b0f6065185240cfdc upstream.

Currently, in mb_find_order_for_block(), there's a loop like the following:

  while (order &lt;= e4b-&gt;bd_blkbits + 1) {
    ...
    bb += 1 &lt;&lt; (e4b-&gt;bd_blkbits - order);
  }

Note that the updated bb is used in the loop's next iteration only.

However, at the last iteration, that is at order == e4b-&gt;bd_blkbits + 1,
the shift count becomes negative (c.f. C99 6.5.7(3)) and UBSAN reports

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in fs/ext4/mballoc.c:1281:11
  shift exponent -1 is negative
  [...]
  Call Trace:

   [&lt;ffffffff816e7b7e&gt;] mb_find_order_for_block+0x1ce/0x240
   [...]

Unless compilers start to do some fancy transformations (which at least
GCC 6.0.0 doesn't currently do), the issue is of cosmetic nature only: the
such calculated value of bb is never used again.

Silence UBSAN by introducing another variable, bb_incr, holding the next

position per loop iteration.

<title>ext4: fix hang when processing corrupted orphaned inode list</title>

commit c9eb13a9105e2e418f72e46a2b6da3f49e696902 upstream.

If the orphaned inode list contains inode #5, ext4_iget() returns a
bad inode (since the bootloader inode should never be referenced
directly).  Because of the bad inode, we end up processing the inode
repeatedly and this hangs the machine.

This can be reproduced via:

   mke2fs -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img 100
   debugfs -w -R "ssv last_orphan 5" /tmp/foo.img
   mount -o loop /tmp/foo.img /mnt

(But don't do this if you are using an unpatched kernel if you care
about the system staying functional.  :-)

This bug was found by the port of American Fuzzy Lop into the kernel
to find file system problems[1].  (Since it *only* happens if inode #5
shows up on the orphan list --- 3, 7, 8, etc. won't do it, it's not
surprising that AFL needed two hours before it found it.)
