commit 2ba3e6e8afc9b6188b471f27cf2b5e3cf34e7af2 upstream.

It is OK for s_first_meta_bg to be equal to the number of block group
descriptor blocks.  (It rarely happens, but it shouldn't cause any
problems.)

<title>ext4: validate s_first_meta_bg at mount time</title>

commit 3a4b77cd47bb837b8557595ec7425f281f2ca1fe upstream.

Ralf Spenneberg reported that he hit a kernel crash when mounting a
modified ext4 image. And it turns out that kernel crashed when
calculating fs overhead (ext4_calculate_overhead()), this is because
the image has very large s_first_meta_bg (debug code shows it's
842150400), and ext4 overruns the memory in count_overhead() when
setting bitmap buffer, which is PAGE_SIZE.

ext4_calculate_overhead():
  buf = get_zeroed_page(GFP_NOFS);  &lt;=== PAGE_SIZE buffer
  blks = count_overhead(sb, i, buf);

count_overhead():
  for (j = ext4_bg_num_gdb(sb, grp); j &gt; 0; j--) { &lt;=== j = 842150400
          ext4_set_bit(EXT4_B2C(sbi, s++), buf);   &lt;=== buffer overrun
          count++;
  }

This can be reproduced easily for me by this script:

  #!/bin/bash
  rm -f fs.img
  mkdir -p /mnt/ext4
  fallocate -l 16M fs.img
  mke2fs -t ext4 -O bigalloc,meta_bg,^resize_inode -F fs.img
  debugfs -w -R "ssv first_meta_bg 842150400" fs.img
  mount -o loop fs.img /mnt/ext4

Fix it by validating s_first_meta_bg first at mount time, and
refusing to mount if its value exceeds the largest possible meta_bg
number.

<title>xfs: fix incorrect log_flushed on fsync</title>

commit 47c7d0b19502583120c3f396c7559e7a77288a68 upstream.

When calling into _xfs_log_force{,_lsn}() with a pointer
to log_flushed variable, log_flushed will be set to 1 if:
1. xlog_sync() is called to flush the active log buffer
AND/OR
2. xlog_wait() is called to wait on a syncing log buffers

xfs_file_fsync() checks the value of log_flushed after
_xfs_log_force_lsn() call to optimize away an explicit
PREFLUSH request to the data block device after writing
out all the file's pages to disk.

This optimization is incorrect in the following sequence of events:

 Task A                    Task B
 -------------------------------------------------------
 xfs_file_fsync()
   _xfs_log_force_lsn()
     xlog_sync()
        [submit PREFLUSH]
                           xfs_file_fsync()
                             file_write_and_wait_range()
                               [submit WRITE X]
                               [endio  WRITE X]
                             _xfs_log_force_lsn()
                               xlog_wait()
        [endio  PREFLUSH]

The write X is not guarantied to be on persistent storage
when PREFLUSH request in completed, because write A was submitted
after the PREFLUSH request, but xfs_file_fsync() of task A will
be notified of log_flushed=1 and will skip explicit flush.

If the system crashes after fsync of task A, write X may not be
present on disk after reboot.

This bug was discovered and demonstrated using Josef Bacik's
dm-log-writes target, which can be used to record block io operations
and then replay a subset of these operations onto the target device.
The test goes something like this:
- Use fsx to execute ops of a file and record ops on log device
- Every now and then fsync the file, store md5 of file and mark
  the location in the log
- Then replay log onto device for each mark, mount fs and compare
  md5 of file to stored value

<title>dlm: avoid double-free on error path in dlm_device_{register,unregister}</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 55acdd926f6b21a5cdba23da98a48aedf19ac9c3 upstream.

Can be reproduced when running dlm_controld (tested on 4.4.x, 4.12.4):
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool join
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool leave

misc_register fails due to duplicate sysfs entry, which causes
dlm_device_register to free ls-&gt;ls_device.name.
In dlm_device_deregister the name was freed again, causing memory
corruption.

According to the comment in dlm_device_deregister the name should've been
set to NULL when registration fails,
so this patch does that.

commit 55acdd926f6b21a5cdba23da98a48aedf19ac9c3 upstream.

Can be reproduced when running dlm_controld (tested on 4.4.x, 4.12.4):
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool join
 # seq 1 100 | xargs -P0 -n1 dlm_tool leave

misc_register fails due to duplicate sysfs entry, which causes
dlm_device_register to free ls-&gt;ls_device.name.
In dlm_device_deregister the name was freed again, causing memory
corruption.

According to the comment in dlm_device_deregister the name should've been
set to NULL when registration fails,
so this patch does that.

sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/dev/char/10:1'

<title>fcntl: Don't use ambiguous SIG_POLL si_codes</title>

commit d08477aa975e97f1dc64c0ae59cebf98520456ce upstream.

We have a weird and problematic intersection of features that when
they all come together result in ambiguous siginfo values, that
we can not support properly.

- Supporting fcntl(F_SETSIG,...) with arbitrary valid signals.

- Using positive values for POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, POLL_MSG, ..., etc
  that imply they are signal specific si_codes and using the
  aforementioned arbitrary signal to deliver them.

- Supporting injection of arbitrary siginfo values for debugging and
  checkpoint/restore.

The result is that just looking at siginfo si_codes of 1 to 6 are
ambigious.  It could either be a signal specific si_code or it could
be a generic si_code.

For most of the kernel this is a non-issue but for sending signals
with siginfo it is impossible to play back the kernel signals and
get the same result.

Strictly speaking when the si_code was changed from SI_SIGIO to
POLL_IN and friends between 2.2 and 2.4 this functionality was not
ambiguous, as only real time signals were supported.  Before 2.4 was
released the kernel began supporting siginfo with non realtime signals
so they could give details of why the signal was sent.

The result is that if F_SETSIG is set to one of the signals with signal
specific si_codes then user space can not know why the signal was sent.

I grepped through a bunch of userspace programs using debian code
search to get a feel for how often people choose a signal that results
in an ambiguous si_code.  I only found one program doing so and it was
using SIGCHLD to test the F_SETSIG functionality, and did not appear
to be a real world usage.

Therefore the ambiguity does not appears to be a real world problem in
practice.  Remove the ambiguity while introducing the smallest chance
of breakage by changing the si_code to SI_SIGIO when signals with
signal specific si_codes are targeted.

Fixes: v2.3.40 -- Added support for queueing non-rt signals
Fixes: v2.3.21 -- Changed the si_code from SI_SIGIO

commit 4f05028f8d1af782cfd03d09e0a052e9745dc5ad upstream.

Some false positive warnings are reported for powerpc build.

The following warnings are reported in

This cleans out these warnings by forcing the variables to be initialized.

commit fa5199648e273a5e3e80aca41c1eb53700438dc1 upstream.

This is meant to remove a compiler warning.  It should not make any
functional change.

payload_len should be initialized when it is passed to
write_tag_64_packet() as a pointer.  If that call fails, this function
should return early, and payload_len won't be used.

commit b2a3ad9ca502169fc4c11296fa20f56059c7c031 upstream.

gcc-4.7.0 has started throwing these warnings when building cifs.ko.

  CC [M]  fs/cifs/cifssmb.o
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c: In function ‘CIFSSMBSetCIFSACL’:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:3905:9: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c: In function ‘CIFSSMBSetFileInfo’:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:5711:8: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c: In function ‘CIFSSMBUnixSetFileInfo’:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:6001:25: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]

This patch cleans up the code a bit by using the offsetof macro instead
of the funky "&amp;pSMB-&gt;hdr.Protocol" construct.

commit 95d78c28b5a85bacbc29b8dba7c04babb9b0d467 upstream.

bio_map_user_iov and bio_unmap_user do unbalanced pages refcounting if
IO vector has small consecutive buffers belonging to the same page.
bio_add_pc_page merges them into one, but the page reference is never
dropped.
