commit 77e89afc25f30abd56e76a809ee2884d7c1b63ce upstream.

Multi-MSI uses a single MSI descriptor and there is a single mask register
when the device supports per vector masking. To avoid reading back the mask
register the value is cached in the MSI descriptor and updates are done by
clearing and setting bits in the cache and writing it to the device.

But nothing protects msi_desc::masked and the mask register from being
modified concurrently on two different CPUs for two different Linux
interrupts which belong to the same multi-MSI descriptor.

Add a lock to struct device and protect any operation on the mask and the
mask register with it.

This makes the update of msi_desc::masked unconditional, but there is no
place which requires a modification of the hardware register without
updating the masked cache.

msi_mask_irq() is now an empty wrapper which will be cleaned up in follow
up changes.

The problem goes way back to the initial support of multi-MSI, but picking
the commit which introduced the mask cache is a valid cut off point
(2.6.30).

commit 826da771291fc25a428e871f9e7fb465e390f852 upstream.

X86 IO/APIC and MSI interrupts (when used without interrupts remapping)
require that the affinity setup on startup is done before the interrupt is
enabled for the first time as the non-remapped operation mode cannot safely
migrate enabled interrupts from arbitrary contexts. Provide a new irq chip
flag which allows affected hardware to request this.

This has to be opt-in because there have been reports in the past that some
interrupt chips cannot handle affinity setting before startup.

[ Upstream commit 376e4199e327a5cf29b8ec8fb0f64f3d8b429819 ]

Currently TEE_SHM_DMA_BUF flag has been inappropriately used to not
register shared memory allocated for private usage by underlying TEE
driver: OP-TEE in this case. So rather add a new flag as TEE_SHM_PRIV
that can be utilized by underlying TEE drivers for private allocation
and usage of shared memory.

With this corrected, allow tee_shm_alloc_kernel_buf() to allocate a
shared memory region without the backing of dma-buf.

commit bf88fef0b6f1488abeca594d377991171c00e52a upstream.

The HNP work can be re-scheduled while it's still in-fly. This results in
re-initialization of the busy work, resetting the hrtimer's list node of
the work and crashing kernel with null dereference within kernel/timer
once work's timer is expired. It's very easy to trigger this problem by
re-plugging USB cable quickly. Initialize HNP work only once to fix this
trouble.

commit 1e7107c5ef44431bc1ebbd4c353f1d7c22e5f2ec upstream.

Richard reported sporadic (roughly one in 10 or so) null dereferences and
other strange behaviour for a set of automated LTP tests.  Things like:

   BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
   #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
   #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
   PGD 0 P4D 0
   Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
   CPU: 0 PID: 1516 Comm: umount Not tainted 5.10.0-yocto-standard #1
   Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-48-gd9c812dda519-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014
   RIP: 0010:kernfs_sop_show_path+0x1b/0x60

...or these others:

   RIP: 0010:do_mkdirat+0x6a/0xf0
   RIP: 0010:d_alloc_parallel+0x98/0x510
   RIP: 0010:do_readlinkat+0x86/0x120

There were other less common instances of some kind of a general scribble
but the common theme was mount and cgroup and a dubious dentry triggering
the NULL dereference.  I was only able to reproduce it under qemu by
replicating Richard's setup as closely as possible - I never did get it
to happen on bare metal, even while keeping everything else the same.

In commit 71d883c37e8d ("cgroup_do_mount(): massage calling conventions")
we see this as a part of the overall change:

   --------------
           struct cgroup_subsys *ss;
   -       struct dentry *dentry;

   [...]

   -       dentry = cgroup_do_mount(&amp;cgroup_fs_type, fc-&gt;sb_flags, root,
   -                                CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);

   [...]

   -       if (percpu_ref_is_dying(&amp;root-&gt;cgrp.self.refcnt)) {

   -               dput(dentry);

                   msleep(10);
                   return restart_syscall();
           }
   --------------

In changing from the local "*dentry" variable to using fc-&gt;root, we now
export/leave that dentry pointer in the file context after doing the dput()
in the unlikely "is_dying" case.   With LTP doing a crazy amount of back to
back mount/unmount [testcases/bin/cgroup_regression_5_1.sh] the unlikely
becomes slightly likely and then bad things happen.

A fix would be to not leave the stale reference in fc-&gt;root as follows:

   --------------
                  dput(fc-&gt;root);
  +               fc-&gt;root = NULL;
                  deactivate_locked_super(sb);
   --------------

...but then we are just open-coding a duplicate of fc_drop_locked() so we
simply use that instead.

commit 1e7107c5ef44431bc1ebbd4c353f1d7c22e5f2ec upstream.

Richard reported sporadic (roughly one in 10 or so) null dereferences and
other strange behaviour for a set of automated LTP tests.  Things like:

   BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
   #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
   #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
   PGD 0 P4D 0
   Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
   CPU: 0 PID: 1516 Comm: umount Not tainted 5.10.0-yocto-standard #1
   Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-48-gd9c812dda519-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014
   RIP: 0010:kernfs_sop_show_path+0x1b/0x60

...or these others:

   RIP: 0010:do_mkdirat+0x6a/0xf0
   RIP: 0010:d_alloc_parallel+0x98/0x510
   RIP: 0010:do_readlinkat+0x86/0x120

There were other less common instances of some kind of a general scribble
but the common theme was mount and cgroup and a dubious dentry triggering
the NULL dereference.  I was only able to reproduce it under qemu by
replicating Richard's setup as closely as possible - I never did get it
to happen on bare metal, even while keeping everything else the same.

In commit 71d883c37e8d ("cgroup_do_mount(): massage calling conventions")
we see this as a part of the overall change:

   --------------
           struct cgroup_subsys *ss;
   -       struct dentry *dentry;

   [...]

   -       dentry = cgroup_do_mount(&amp;cgroup_fs_type, fc-&gt;sb_flags, root,
   -                                CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);

   [...]

   -       if (percpu_ref_is_dying(&amp;root-&gt;cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
   -               struct super_block *sb = dentry-&gt;d_sb;
   -               dput(dentry);
   +       ret = cgroup_do_mount(fc, CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);
   +       if (!ret &amp;&amp; percpu_ref_is_dying(&amp;root-&gt;cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
   +               struct super_block *sb = fc-&gt;root-&gt;d_sb;
   +               dput(fc-&gt;root);
                   deactivate_locked_super(sb);
                   msleep(10);
                   return restart_syscall();
           }
   --------------

export/leave that dentry pointer in the file context after doing the dput()

[ Upstream commit 2beb4a53fc3f1081cedc1c1a198c7f56cc4fc60c ]

The kernel pushes context on to the userspace stack to prepare for the
user's signal handler. When the user has supplied an alternate signal
stack, via sigaltstack(2), it is easy for the kernel to verify that the
stack size is sufficient for the current hardware context.

Check if writing the hardware context to the alternate stack will exceed
it's size. If yes, then instead of corrupting user-data and proceeding with
the original signal handler, an immediate SIGSEGV signal is delivered.

Refactor the stack pointer check code from on_sig_stack() and use the new
helper.

While the kernel allows new source code to discover and use a sufficient
alternate signal stack size, this check is still necessary to protect
binaries with insufficient alternate signal stack size from data
corruption.
