x86/cpu: Add a steppings field to struct x86_cpu_id

2020-06-11T18:05:56+00:00

commit e9d7144597b10ff13ff2264c059f7d4a7fbc89ac upstream.

Intel uses the same family/model for several CPUs. Sometimes the
stepping must be checked to tell them apart.

On x86 there can be at most 16 steppings. Add a steppings bitmask to
x86_cpu_id and a X86_MATCH_VENDOR_FAMILY_MODEL_STEPPING_FEATURE macro
and support for matching against family/model/stepping.

signal: Extend exec_id to 64bits

2020-06-11T18:05:52+00:00

commit d1e7fd6462ca9fc76650fbe6ca800e35b24267da upstream.

Replace the 32bit exec_id with a 64bit exec_id to make it impossible
to wrap the exec_id counter.  With care an attacker can cause exec_id
wrap and send arbitrary signals to a newly exec'd parent.  This
bypasses the signal sending checks if the parent changes their
credentials during exec.

The severity of this problem can been seen that in my limited testing
of a 32bit exec_id it can take as little as 19s to exec 65536 times.
Which means that it can take as little as 14 days to wrap a 32bit
exec_id.  Adam Zabrocki has succeeded wrapping the self_exe_id in 7
days.  Even my slower timing is in the uptime of a typical server.
Which means self_exec_id is simply a speed bump today, and if exec
gets noticably faster self_exec_id won't even be a speed bump.

Extending self_exec_id to 64bits introduces a problem on 32bit
architectures where reading self_exec_id is no longer atomic and can
take two read instructions.  Which means that is is possible to hit
a window where the read value of exec_id does not match the written
value.  So with very lucky timing after this change this still
remains expoiltable.

I have updated the update of exec_id on exec to use WRITE_ONCE
and the read of exec_id in do_notify_parent to use READ_ONCE
to make it clear that there is no locking between these two
locations.

USB: serial: ir-usb: fix link-speed handling

2020-05-22T20:19:32+00:00

commit 17a0184ca17e288decdca8b2841531e34d49285f upstream.

Commit e0d795e4f36c ("usb: irda: cleanup on ir-usb module") added a USB
IrDA header with common defines, but mistakingly switched to using the
class-descriptor baud-rate bitmask values for the outbound header.

This broke link-speed handling for rates above 9600 baud, but a device
would also be able to operate at the default 9600 baud until a
link-speed request was issued (e.g. using the TCGETS ioctl).

padata: Replace delayed timer with immediate workqueue in padata_reorder

2020-05-22T20:19:13+00:00

commit 6fc4dbcf0276279d488c5fbbfabe94734134f4fa upstream.

The function padata_reorder will use a timer when it cannot progress
while completed jobs are outstanding (pd->reorder_objects > 0).  This
is suboptimal as if we do end up using the timer then it would have
introduced a gratuitous delay of one second.

In fact we can easily distinguish between whether completed jobs
are outstanding and whether we can make progress.  All we have to
do is look at the next pqueue list.

This patch does that by replacing pd->processed with pd->cpu so
that the next pqueue is more accessible.

A work queue is used instead of the original try_again to avoid
hogging the CPU.

Note that we don't bother removing the work queue in
padata_flush_queues because the whole premise is broken.  You
cannot flush async crypto requests so it makes no sense to even
try.  A subsequent patch will fix it by replacing it with a ref
counting scheme.

padata: ensure padata_do_serial() runs on the correct CPU

2020-05-22T20:19:13+00:00

commit 350ef88e7e922354f82a931897ad4a4ce6c686ff upstream.

If the algorithm we're parallelizing is asynchronous we might change
CPUs between padata_do_parallel() and padata_do_serial(). However, we
don't expect this to happen as we need to enqueue the padata object into
the per-cpu reorder queue we took it from, i.e. the same-cpu's parallel
queue.

Ensure we're not switching CPUs for a given padata object by tracking
the CPU within the padata object. If the serial callback gets called on
the wrong CPU, defer invoking padata_reorder() via a kernel worker on
the CPU we're expected to run on.

padata: ensure the reorder timer callback runs on the correct CPU

2020-05-22T20:19:12+00:00

commit cf5868c8a22dc2854b96e9569064bb92365549ca upstream.

The reorder timer function runs on the CPU where the timer interrupt was
handled which is not necessarily one of the CPUs of the 'pcpu' CPU mask
set.

Ensure the padata_reorder() callback runs on the correct CPU, which is
one in the 'pcpu' CPU mask set and, preferrably, the next expected one.
Do so by comparing the current CPU with the expected target CPU. If they
match, call padata_reorder() right away. If they differ, schedule a work
item on the target CPU that does the padata_reorder() call for us.

futex: Fix inode life-time issue

commit 8019ad13ef7f64be44d4f892af9c840179009254 upstream.

As reported by Jann, ihold() does not in fact guarantee inode
persistence. And instead of making it so, replace the usage of inode
pointers with a per boot, machine wide, unique inode identifier.

This sequence number is global, but shared (file backed) futexes are
rare enough that this should not become a performance issue.

ptp: fix the race between the release of ptp_clock and cdev

2020-04-28T18:03:47+00:00

commit a33121e5487b424339636b25c35d3a180eaa5f5e upstream.

In a case when a ptp chardev (like /dev/ptp0) is open but an underlying
device is removed, closing this file leads to a race. This reproduces
easily in a kvm virtual machine:

ts# cat openptp0.c
int main() { ... fp = fopen("/dev/ptp0", "r"); ... sleep(10); }

This happens in:

static void __fput(struct file *file)
{   ...
    if (file->f_op->release)
        file->f_op->release(inode, file); <<< cdev is kfree'd here
    if (unlikely(S_ISCHR(inode->i_mode) && inode->i_cdev != NULL &&
             !(mode & FMODE_PATH))) {
        cdev_put(inode->i_cdev); <<< cdev fields are accessed here

Namely:

__fput()
  posix_clock_release()
    kref_put(&clk->kref, delete_clock) <<< the last reference
      delete_clock()
        delete_ptp_clock()
          kfree(ptp) <<< cdev is embedded in ptp
  cdev_put
    module_put(p->owner) <<< *p is kfree'd, bang!

Here cdev is embedded in posix_clock which is embedded in ptp_clock.
The race happens because ptp_clock's lifetime is controlled by two
refcounts: kref and cdev.kobj in posix_clock. This is wrong.

Make ptp_clock's sysfs device a parent of cdev with cdev_device_add()
created especially for such cases. This way the parent device with its
ptp_clock is not released until all references to the cdev are released.
This adds a requirement that an initialized but not exposed struct
device should be provided to posix_clock_register() by a caller instead
of a simple dev_t.

This approach was adopted from the commit 72139dfa2464 ("watchdog: Fix
the race between the release of watchdog_core_data and cdev"). See
details of the implementation in the commit 233ed09d7fda ("chardev: add
helper function to register char devs with a struct device").

chardev: add helper function to register char devs with a struct device

2020-04-28T18:03:46+00:00

commit 233ed09d7fdacf592ee91e6c97ce5f4364fbe7c0 upstream.

Credit for this patch goes is shared with Dan Williams [1]. I've
taken things one step further to make the helper function more
useful and clean up calling code.

There's a common pattern in the kernel whereby a struct cdev is placed
in a structure along side a struct device which manages the life-cycle
of both. In the naive approach, the reference counting is broken and
the struct device can free everything before the chardev code
is entirely released.

Many developers have solved this problem by linking the internal kobjs
in this fashion:

cdev.kobj.parent = &parent_dev.kobj;

The cdev code explicitly gets and puts a reference to it's kobj parent.
So this seems like it was intended to be used this way. Dmitrty Torokhov
first put this in place in 2012 with this commit:

2f0157f char_dev: pin parent kobject

and the first instance of the fix was then done in the input subsystem
in the following commit:

4a215aa Input: fix use-after-free introduced with dynamic minor changes

Subsequently over the years, however, this issue seems to have tripped
up multiple developers independently. For example, see these commits:

0d5b7da iio: Prevent race between IIO chardev opening and IIO device
(by Lars-Peter Clausen in 2013)

ba0ef85 tpm: Fix initialization of the cdev
(by Jason Gunthorpe in 2015)

5b28dde [media] media: fix use-after-free in cdev_put() when app exits
after driver unbind
(by Shauh Khan in 2016)

This technique is similarly done in at least 15 places within the kernel
and probably should have been done so in another, at least, 5 places.
The kobj line also looks very suspect in that one would not expect
drivers to have to mess with kobject internals in this way.
Even highly experienced kernel developers can be surprised by this
code, as seen in [2].

To help alleviate this situation, and hopefully prevent future
wasted effort on this problem, this patch introduces a helper function
to register a char device along with its parent struct device.
This creates a more regular API for tying a char device to its parent
without the developer having to set members in the underlying kobject.

This patch introduce cdev_device_add and cdev_device_del which
replaces a common pattern including setting the kobj parent, calling
cdev_add and then calling device_add. It also introduces cdev_set_parent
for the few cases that set the kobject parent without using device_add.

blktrace: Protect q->blk_trace with RCU

2020-04-28T18:03:38+00:00

commit c780e86dd48ef6467a1146cf7d0fe1e05a635039 upstream.

KASAN is reporting that __blk_add_trace() has a use-after-free issue
when accessing q->blk_trace. Indeed the switching of block tracing (and
thus eventual freeing of q->blk_trace) is completely unsynchronized with
the currently running tracing and thus it can happen that the blk_trace
structure is being freed just while __blk_add_trace() works on it.
Protect accesses to q->blk_trace by RCU during tracing and make sure we
wait for the end of RCU grace period when shutting down tracing. Luckily
that is rare enough event that we can afford that. Note that postponing
the freeing of blk_trace to an RCU callback should better be avoided as
it could have unexpected user visible side-effects as debugfs files
would be still existing for a short while block tracing has been shut
down.
