commit b2f73922d119686323f14fbbe46587f863852328 upstream.

So the /proc/PID/stat 'wchan' field (the 30th field, which contains
the absolute kernel address of the kernel function a task is blocked in)
leaks absolute kernel addresses to unprivileged user-space:

        seq_put_decimal_ull(m, ' ', wchan);

The absolute address might also leak via /proc/PID/wchan as well, if
KALLSYMS is turned off or if the symbol lookup fails for some reason:

static int proc_pid_wchan(struct seq_file *m, struct pid_namespace *ns,
                          struct pid *pid, struct task_struct *task)
{
        unsigned long wchan;
        char symname[KSYM_NAME_LEN];

        wchan = get_wchan(task);

        if (lookup_symbol_name(wchan, symname) &lt; 0) {
                if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ))
                        return 0;
                seq_printf(m, "%lu", wchan);
        } else {
                seq_printf(m, "%s", symname);
        }

        return 0;
}

This isn't ideal, because for example it trivially leaks the KASLR offset
to any local attacker:

  fomalhaut:~&gt; printf "%016lx\n" $(cat /proc/$$/stat | cut -d' ' -f35)
  ffffffff8123b380

Most real-life uses of wchan are symbolic:

  ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm

and procps uses /proc/PID/wchan, not the absolute address in /proc/PID/stat:

  triton:~/tip&gt; strace -f ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm 2&gt;&amp;1 | grep wchan | tail -1
  open("/proc/30833/wchan", O_RDONLY)     = 6

There's one compatibility quirk here: procps relies on whether the
absolute value is non-zero - and we can provide that functionality
by outputing "0" or "1" depending on whether the task is blocked
(whether there's a wchan address).

These days there appears to be very little legitimate reason
user-space would be interested in  the absolute address. The
absolute address is mostly historic: from the days when we
didn't have kallsyms and user-space procps had to do the
decoding itself via the System.map.

So this patch sets all numeric output to "0" or "1" and keeps only
symbolic output, in /proc/PID/wchan.

( The absolute sleep address can generally still be profiled via
  perf, by tasks with sufficient privileges. )

commit 0f89abf56abbd0e1c6e3cef9813e6d9f05383c1e upstream.

Commit 8eb934591f8b ("btrfs: check unsupported filters in balance
arguments") adds a jump to exit label out_bargs in case the argument
check fails. At this point in addition to the bargs memory, the
memory for struct btrfs_balance_control has already been allocated.
Ownership of bctl is passed to btrfs_balance() in the good case,
thus the memory is not freed due to the introduced jump. Make sure
that the memory gets freed in any case as necessary. Detected by
Coverity CID 1328378.

commit 1c8a47df36d72ace8cf78eb6c228aa0f8027d3c2 upstream.

If two overlayfs filesystems are stacked on top of each other, then we need
recursion in ovl_d_select_inode().

I guess d_backing_inode() is supposed to do that.  But currently it doesn't
and that functionality is open coded in vfs_open().  This is now copied
into ovl_d_select_inode() to fix this regression.

commit ab79efab0a0ba01a74df782eb7fa44b044dae8b5 upstream.

In ovl_copy_up_locked(), newdentry is leaked if the function exits through
out_cleanup as this just to out after calling ovl_cleanup() - which doesn't
actually release the ref on newdentry.

The out_cleanup segment should instead exit through out2 as certainly
newdentry leaks - and possibly upper does also, though this isn't caught
given the catch of newdentry.

Without this fix, something like the following is seen:

	BUG: Dentry ffff880023e9eb20{i=f861,n=#ffff880023e82d90} still in use (1) [unmount of tmpfs tmpfs]
	BUG: Dentry ffff880023ece640{i=0,n=bigfile}  still in use (1) [unmount of tmpfs tmpfs]

when unmounting the upper layer after an error occurred in copyup.

An error can be induced by creating a big file in a lower layer with
something like:

	dd if=/dev/zero of=/lower/a/bigfile bs=65536 count=1 seek=$((0xf000))

to create a large file (4.1G).  Overlay an upper layer that is too small
(on tmpfs might do) and then induce a copy up by opening it writably.

Open the lower file with O_LARGEFILE in ovl_copy_up().

Pass O_LARGEFILE unconditionally in ovl_copy_up_data() as it's purely for
catching 32-bit userspace dealing with a file large enough that it'll be
mishandled if the application isn't aware that there might be an integer
overflow.  Inside the kernel, there shouldn't be any problems.

commit 0f95502ad84874b3c05fc7cdd9d4d9d5cddf7859 upstream.

This fixes small memory leak after mount.

commit 8c3ad9cb7343dc5f61b8cf3cdbe1016c5e7c2c8b upstream.

Recent Linux clients have started to send GETLAYOUT requests with
minlength less than blocksize.

Servers aren't really allowed to impose this kind of restriction on
layouts; see RFC 5661 section 18.43.3 for details.

This has been observed to cause indefinite hangs on fsx runs on some
clients.

<title>btrfs: fix use after free iterating extrefs</title>

commit dc6c5fb3b514221f2e9d21ee626a9d95d3418dff upstream.

The code for btrfs inode-resolve has never worked properly for
files with enough hard links to trigger extrefs.  It was trying to
get the leaf out of a path after freeing the path:

	btrfs_release_path(path);
	leaf = path-&gt;nodes[0];
	item_size = btrfs_item_size_nr(leaf, slot);

The fix here is to use the extent buffer we cloned just a little higher
up to avoid deadlocks caused by using the leaf in the path.

<title>btrfs: check unsupported filters in balance arguments</title>

commit 8eb934591f8bf584969454a658f629cd06e59f3a upstream.

We don't verify that all the balance filter arguments supplemented by
the flags are actually known to the kernel. Thus we let it silently pass
and do nothing.

At the moment this means only the 'limit' filter, but we're going to add
a few more soon so it's better to have that fixed. Also in older stable
kernels so that it works with newer userspace tools.
