commit 22f6b4d34fcf039c63a94e7670e0da24f8575a5a upstream.

This ensures that do_mmap() won't implicitly make AIO memory mappings
executable if the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag is set.  Such
behavior is problematic because the security_mmap_file LSM hook doesn't
catch this case, potentially permitting an attacker to bypass a W^X
policy enforced by SELinux.

I have tested the patch on my machine.

To test the behavior, compile and run this:

    #define _GNU_SOURCE
    #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
    #include &lt;sys/personality.h&gt;
    #include &lt;linux/aio_abi.h&gt;
    #include &lt;err.h&gt;
    #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
    #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
    #include &lt;sys/syscall.h&gt;

    int main(void) {
        personality(READ_IMPLIES_EXEC);
        aio_context_t ctx = 0;
        if (syscall(__NR_io_setup, 1, &amp;ctx))
            err(1, "io_setup");

        char cmd[1000];
        sprintf(cmd, "cat /proc/%d/maps | grep -F '/[aio]'",
            (int)getpid());
        system(cmd);
        return 0;
    }

In the output, "rw-s" is good, "rwxs" is bad.

<title>ceph: do not modify fi-&gt;frag in need_reset_readdir()</title>

commit 0f5aa88a7bb28b73253fb42b3df8202142769f39 upstream.

Commit f3c4ebe65ea1 ("ceph: using hash value to compose dentry offset")
modified "if (fpos_frag(new_pos) != fi-&gt;frag)" to "if (fi-&gt;frag |=
fpos_frag(new_pos))" in need_reset_readdir(), thus replacing a
comparison operator with an assignment one.

This looks like a typo which is reported by clang when building the
kernel with some warning flags:

    fs/ceph/dir.c:600:22: error: using the result of an assignment as a
    condition without parentheses [-Werror,-Wparentheses]
            } else if (fi-&gt;frag |= fpos_frag(new_pos)) {
                       ~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    fs/ceph/dir.c:600:22: note: place parentheses around the assignment
    to silence this warning
            } else if (fi-&gt;frag |= fpos_frag(new_pos)) {
                                ^
                       (                             )
    fs/ceph/dir.c:600:22: note: use '!=' to turn this compound
    assignment into an inequality comparison
            } else if (fi-&gt;frag |= fpos_frag(new_pos)) {

commit 1c8d477a77e2d1d3504419e7f2e02e6422becf9a upstream.

Putting the periodicity timer in the mirror instances is causing
non-scalable reporting behaviour and missed reporting intervals.
When you recall layouts and/or implement client side mirroring, it
leads to consecutive reports with only a few ms between RPC calls.

commit a4e187d83d88eeaba6252aac0a2ffe5eaa73a818 upstream.

Before commit 778be232a207 ("NFS do not find client in NFSv4
pg_authenticate"), the Linux callback server replied with
RPC_AUTH_ERROR / RPC_AUTH_BADCRED, instead of dropping the CB
request. Let's restore that behavior so the server has a chance to
do something useful about it, and provide a warning that helps
admins correct the problem.

commit 52d210d961a62a9662e27f14d6505d6741b2fb02 upstream.

In ee1d267423a1 ("pstore: add pstore unregister") I added:
	.owner = THIS_MODULE,
in both pstore_fs_type and pstore_file_operations to increase a reference
count when pstore filesystem is mounted and pstore file is opened.

But, it's repetitive. There is no need to increase the opened reference
count. We only need to increase the mounted reference count. When a file
is opened, the filesystem can't be unmounted. Hence the pstore module
can't be unloaded either.

So I drop the opened reference count in this patch.

commit 955818cd5b6c4b58ea574ace4573e7afa4c19c1e upstream.

ceph_llseek does not correctly return NXIO errors because the 'out' path
always returns 'offset'.

Fixes: 06222e491e66 ("fs: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA properly in all fs's that define their own llseek")
