commit bb2784d9ab49587ba4fbff37a319fff2924db289 upstream.

While converting users of msecs_to_jiffies(), lkp reported that some range
checks would always be true because of the mismatch between the implied int
value of secs_to_jiffies() vs the unsigned long return value of the
msecs_to_jiffies() calls it was replacing.

Fix this by casting the secs_to_jiffies() input value to unsigned long.

commit b35108a51cf7bab58d7eace1267d7965978bcdb8 upstream.

secs_to_jiffies() is defined in hci_event.c and cannot be reused by
other call sites. Hoist it into the core code to allow conversion of the
~1150 usages of msecs_to_jiffies() that either:

 - use a multiplier value of 1000 or equivalently MSEC_PER_SEC, or
 - have timeouts that are denominated in seconds (i.e. end in 000)

It's implemented as a macro to allow usage in static initializers.

This will also allow conversion of yet more sites that use (sec * HZ)
directly, and improve their readability.

[ Upstream commit 12917f591cea1af36087dba5b9ec888652f0b42a ]

hci_abort_conn() read hci_skb_event(hdev-&gt;sent_cmd) when a connection
was pending, but hdev-&gt;sent_cmd can be NULL while req_status is still
HCI_REQ_PEND, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and a general
protection fault from the hci_rx_work() receive path.

Instead of inspecting hdev-&gt;sent_cmd, track the in-flight create
connection command with a new per-connection HCI_CONN_CREATE flag and
route all cancellation through hci_cancel_connect_sync(), which
dispatches to a dedicated per-type cancel function. The create command
is in exactly one of two states: still queued, or in flight. The cancel
function holds cmd_sync_work_lock across the whole decision: the worker
takes this lock to dequeue every entry, so while it is held a queued
command cannot start running and an in-flight command cannot complete
and let the next command become pending. This keeps the flag test and
hci_cmd_sync_cancel() atomic with respect to the worker, so a queued
command is simply dequeued, and an in-flight command owned by this
connection is cancelled without the risk of cancelling an unrelated
command that became pending in the meantime. CIS uses the same flag
mechanism via HCI_CONN_CREATE_CIS but cannot be dequeued per-connection.

hci_acl_create_conn_sync() and hci_le_create_conn_sync() clear
HCI_CONN_CREATE after the create command completes, but the command
status handler can free conn via hci_conn_del() (for example when the
controller rejects the connection) while the worker is still blocked on
the connection complete event. Hold a reference on conn across the
create command so the flag can be cleared without a use-after-free.

[ Upstream commit 23205562ffc8de20f57afdd984858cab29e77968 ]

Use separate link type id for unicast and broadcast ISO connections.
These connection types are handled with separate HCI commands, socket
API is different, and hci_conn has union fields that are different in
the two cases, so they shall not be mixed up.

Currently in most places it is attempted to distinguish ucast by
bacmp(&amp;c-&gt;dst, BDADDR_ANY) but it is wrong as dst is set for bcast sink
hci_conn in iso_conn_ready(). Additionally checking sync_handle might be
OK, but depends on details of bcast conn configuration flow.

To avoid complicating it, use separate link types.

<title>Bluetooth: hci_core: Enable buffer flow control for SCO/eSCO</title>

[ Upstream commit 13218453521d75916dfed55efb8e809bfc03cb4b ]

This enables buffer flow control for SCO/eSCO
(see: Bluetooth Core 6.0 spec: 6.22. Synchronous Flow Control Enable),
recently this has caused the following problem and is actually a nice
addition for the likes of Socket TX complete:

&lt; HCI Command: Read Buffer Size (0x04|0x0005) plen 0
&gt; HCI Event: Command Complete (0x0e) plen 11
      Read Buffer Size (0x04|0x0005) ncmd 1
        Status: Success (0x00)
        ACL MTU: 1021 ACL max packet: 5
        SCO MTU: 240  SCO max packet: 8
...
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&lt; SCO Data TX: Handle 257 flags 0x00 dlen 120
&gt; HCI Event: Hardware Error (0x10) plen 1
        Code: 0x0a

To fix the code will now attempt to enable buffer flow control when
HCI_QUIRK_SYNC_FLOWCTL_SUPPORTED is set by the driver:

&lt; HCI Command: Write Sync Fl.. (0x03|0x002f) plen 1
        Flow control: Enabled (0x01)
&gt; HCI Event: Command Complete (0x0e) plen 4
      Write Sync Flow Control Enable (0x03|0x002f) ncmd 1
        Status: Success (0x00)

On success then HCI_SCO_FLOWCTL would be set which indicates sco_cnt
shall be used for flow contro.

&gt; HCI Event: Hardware Error (0x10) plen 1
        Code: 0x0a

To fix the code will now attempt to enable buffer flow control when
HCI_QUIRK_SYNC_FLOWCTL_SUPPORTED is set by the driver:

&lt; HCI Command: Write Sync Fl.. (0x03|0x002f) plen 1
        Flow control: Enabled (0x01)
&gt; HCI Event: Command Complete (0x0e) plen 4
      Write Sync Flow Control Enable (0x03|0x002f) ncmd 1
        Status: Success (0x00)

On success then HCI_SCO_FLOWCTL would be set which indicates sco_cnt
shall be used for flow contro.

<title>mm: do file ownership checks with the proper mount idmap</title>

[ Upstream commit e187bc02f8fa4226d62814592cf064ee4557c470 ]

Ever since idmapped mounts were introduced, inode ownership checks (for
side-channel protection) in mincore() and madvise(MADV_PAGEOUT) were done
against the nop_mnt_idmap, which completely ignores the file's mount's
idmap.  This results in odd edgecases like:

1) mount/bind-mount with an idmap userA:userB:1
2) userB runs an owner_or_capable() check on file that is owned by userA
on-disk/in-memory, but owned by userB after idmap translation
3) owner_or_capable() mysteriously fails as the correct idmap wasn't supplied

In the case of mincore/madvise MADV_PAGEOUT, this is usually benign,
because file_permission(file, MAY_WRITE) will probably succeed, as it uses
the proper idmap internally, but it does not need to be the case on e.g a
0444 file where even the owner itself doesn't have permissions to write to
it.

Since this is clearly not trivial to get right, introduce a
file_owner_or_capable() that can carry the correct semantics, and switch
the various users in mm to it.

The issue was found by manual code inspection &amp; an off-list discussion
with Jan Kara.

<title>audit: add audit_log_nf_skb helper function</title>

[ Upstream commit f19590b07cb620be1fcd5474c49515e21a05d406 ]

Netfilter code (net/netfilter/nft_log.c and net/netfilter/xt_AUDIT.c)
have to be kept in sync. Both source files had duplicated versions of
audit_ip4() and audit_ip6() functions, which can result in lack of
consistency and/or duplicated work.

This patch adds a helper function in audit.c that can be called by
netfilter code commonly, aiming to improve maintainability and
consistency.

We have many places which open-code what's now is bpf_rcu_lock_held()
macro, so replace all those places with a clean and short macro invocation.
For that, move bpf_rcu_lock_held() macro into include/linux/bpf.h.
