commit 5812b32e01c6d86ba7a84110702b46d8a8531fe9 upstream.

Specify type alignment when declaring linker-section match-table entries
to prevent gcc from increasing alignment and corrupting the various
tables with padding (e.g. timers, irqchips, clocks, reserved memory).

This is specifically needed on x86 where gcc (typically) aligns larger
objects like struct of_device_id with static extent on 32-byte
boundaries which at best prevents matching on anything but the first
entry. Specifying alignment when declaring variables suppresses this
optimisation.

Here's a 64-bit example where all entries are corrupt as 16 bytes of
padding has been inserted before the first entry:

	ffffffff8266b4b0 D __clk_of_table
	ffffffff8266b4c0 d __of_table_fixed_factor_clk
	ffffffff8266b5a0 d __of_table_fixed_clk
	ffffffff8266b680 d __clk_of_table_sentinel

And here's a 32-bit example where the 8-byte-aligned table happens to be
placed on a 32-byte boundary so that all but the first entry are corrupt
due to the 28 bytes of padding inserted between entries:

	812b3ec0 D __irqchip_of_table
	812b3ec0 d __of_table_irqchip1
	812b3fa0 d __of_table_irqchip2
	812b4080 d __of_table_irqchip3
	812b4160 d irqchip_of_match_end

Verified on x86 using gcc-9.3 and gcc-4.9 (which uses 64-byte
alignment), and on arm using gcc-7.2.

Note that there are no in-tree users of these tables on x86 currently
(even if they are included in the image).

<title>fscrypt: remove kernel-internal constants from UAPI header</title>

commit 3ceb6543e9cf6ed87cc1fbc6f23ca2db903564cd upstream.

There isn't really any valid reason to use __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX or
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID in a userspace program.  These constants are
only meant to be used by the kernel internally, and they are defined in
the UAPI header next to the mode numbers and flags only so that kernel
developers don't forget to update them when adding new modes or flags.

In https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201005074133.1958633-2-satyat@google.com
there was an example of someone wanting to use __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX in a
user program, and it was wrong because the program would have broken if
__FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX were ever increased.  So having this definition
available is harmful.  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID has the same problem.

So, remove these definitions from the UAPI header.  Replace
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID with just listing the valid flags explicitly
in the one kernel function that needs it.  Move __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX to
fscrypt_private.h, remove the double underscores (which were only
present to discourage use by userspace), and add a BUILD_BUG_ON() and
comments to (hopefully) ensure it is kept in sync.

Keep the old name FS_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID, since it's been around for
longer and there's a greater chance that removing it would break source
compatibility with some program.  Indeed, mtd-utils is using it in
an #ifdef, and removing it would introduce compiler warnings (about
FS_POLICY_FLAGS_PAD_* being redefined) into the mtd-utils build.
However, reduce its value to 0x07 so that it only includes the flags
with old names (the ones present before Linux 5.4), and try to make it
clear that it's now "frozen" and no new flags should be added to it.

commit 159e1de201b6fca10bfec50405a3b53a561096a8 upstream.

It's possible to create a duplicate filename in an encrypted directory
by creating a file concurrently with adding the encryption key.

Specifically, sys_open(O_CREAT) (or sys_mkdir(), sys_mknod(), or
sys_symlink()) can lookup the target filename while the directory's
encryption key hasn't been added yet, resulting in a negative no-key
dentry.  The VFS then calls -&gt;create() (or -&gt;mkdir(), -&gt;mknod(), or
-&gt;symlink()) because the dentry is negative.  Normally, -&gt;create() would
return -ENOKEY due to the directory's key being unavailable.  However,
if the key was added between the dentry lookup and -&gt;create(), then the
filesystem will go ahead and try to create the file.

If the target filename happens to already exist as a normal name (not a
no-key name), a duplicate filename may be added to the directory.

In order to fix this, we need to fix the filesystems to prevent
-&gt;create(), -&gt;mkdir(), -&gt;mknod(), and -&gt;symlink() on no-key names.
(-&gt;rename() and -&gt;link() need it too, but those are already handled
correctly by fscrypt_prepare_rename() and fscrypt_prepare_link().)

In preparation for this, add a helper function fscrypt_is_nokey_name()
that filesystems can use to do this check.  Use this helper function for
the existing checks that fs/crypto/ does for rename and link.

commit 3dc86ca6b4c8cfcba9da7996189d1b5a358a94fc upstream.

This commit adds a counter of pending messages for each watch in the
struct.  It is used to skip unnecessary pending messages lookup in
'unregister_xenbus_watch()'.  It could also be used in 'will_handle'
callback.

commit 2e85d32b1c865bec703ce0c962221a5e955c52c2 upstream.

Some code does not directly make 'xenbus_watch' object and call
'register_xenbus_watch()' but use 'xenbus_watch_path()' instead.  This
commit adds support of 'will_handle' callback in the
'xenbus_watch_path()' and it's wrapper, 'xenbus_watch_pathfmt()'.

commit 2e85d32b1c865bec703ce0c962221a5e955c52c2 upstream.

Some code does not directly make 'xenbus_watch' object and call
'register_xenbus_watch()' but use 'xenbus_watch_path()' instead.  This
commit adds support of 'will_handle' callback in the
'xenbus_watch_path()' and it's wrapper, 'xenbus_watch_pathfmt()'.

commit fed1755b118147721f2c87b37b9d66e62c39b668 upstream.

If handling logics of watch events are slower than the events enqueue
logic and the events can be created from the guests, the guests could
trigger memory pressure by intensively inducing the events, because it
will create a huge number of pending events that exhausting the memory.

Fortunately, some watch events could be ignored, depending on its
handler callback.  For example, if the callback has interest in only one
single path, the watch wouldn't want multiple pending events.  Or, some
watches could ignore events to same path.

To let such watches to volutarily help avoiding the memory pressure
situation, this commit introduces new watch callback, 'will_handle'.  If
it is not NULL, it will be called for each new event just before
enqueuing it.  Then, if the callback returns false, the event will be
discarded.  No watch is using the callback for now, though.

commit 0f966cba95c78029f491b433ea95ff38f414a761 upstream.

Add a per-transaction flag to indicate that the buffer
must be cleared when the transaction is complete to
prevent copies of sensitive data from being preserved
in memory.

<title>PM: ACPI: PCI: Drop acpi_pm_set_bridge_wakeup()</title>

commit 7482c5cb90e5a7f9e9e12dd154d405e0219656e3 upstream.

The idea behind acpi_pm_set_bridge_wakeup() was to allow bridges to
be reference counted for wakeup enabling, because they may be enabled
to signal wakeup on behalf of their subordinate devices and that
may happen for multiple times in a row, whereas for the other devices
it only makes sense to enable wakeup signaling once.

However, this becomes problematic if the bridge itself is suspended,
because it is treated as a "regular" device in that case and the
reference counting doesn't work.

For instance, suppose that there are two devices below a bridge and
they both can signal wakeup.  Every time one of them is suspended,
wakeup signaling is enabled for the bridge, so when they both have
been suspended, the bridge's wakeup reference counter value is 2.

Say that the bridge is suspended subsequently and acpi_pci_wakeup()
is called for it.  Because the bridge can signal wakeup, that
function will invoke acpi_pm_set_device_wakeup() to configure it
and __acpi_pm_set_device_wakeup() will be called with the last
argument equal to 1.  This causes __acpi_device_wakeup_enable()
invoked by it to omit the reference counting, because the reference
counter of the target device (the bridge) is 2 at that time.

Now say that the bridge resumes and one of the device below it
resumes too, so the bridge's reference counter becomes 0 and
wakeup signaling is disabled for it, but there is still the other
suspended device which may need the bridge to signal wakeup on its
behalf and that is not going to work.

To address this scenario, use wakeup enable reference counting for
all devices, not just for bridges, so drop the last argument from
__acpi_device_wakeup_enable() and __acpi_pm_set_device_wakeup(),
which causes acpi_pm_set_device_wakeup() and
acpi_pm_set_bridge_wakeup() to become identical, so drop the latter
and use the former instead of it everywhere.

<title>fix namespaced fscaps when !CONFIG_SECURITY</title>

[ Upstream commit ed9b25d1970a4787ac6a39c2091e63b127ecbfc1 ]

Namespaced file capabilities were introduced in 8db6c34f1dbc .
When userspace reads an xattr for a namespaced capability, a
virtualized representation of it is returned if the caller is
in a user namespace owned by the capability's owning rootid.
The function which performs this virtualization was not hooked
up if CONFIG_SECURITY=n.  Therefore in that case the original
xattr was shown instead of the virtualized one.

To test this using libcap-bin (*1),

$ v=$(mktemp)
$ unshare -Ur setcap cap_sys_admin-eip $v
$ unshare -Ur setcap -v cap_sys_admin-eip $v
/tmp/tmp.lSiIFRvt8Y: OK

"setcap -v" verifies the values instead of setting them, and
will check whether the rootid value is set.  Therefore, with
this bug un-fixed, and with CONFIG_SECURITY=n, setcap -v will
fail:

$ v=$(mktemp)
$ unshare -Ur setcap cap_sys_admin=eip $v
$ unshare -Ur setcap -v cap_sys_admin=eip $v
nsowner[got=1000, want=0],/tmp/tmp.HHDiOOl9fY differs in []

Fix this bug by calling cap_inode_getsecurity() in
security_inode_getsecurity() instead of returning
-EOPNOTSUPP, when CONFIG_SECURITY=n.

*1 - note, if libcap is too old for getcap to have the '-n'
option, then use verify-caps instead.
