commit 17d801758157bec93f26faaf5ff1a8b9a552d67a upstream.

Reading the ring buffer does a swap of a sub-buffer within the ring buffer
with a empty sub-buffer. This allows the reader to have full access to the
content of the sub-buffer that was swapped out without having to worry
about contention with the writer.

The readers call ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() to allocate a page that
will be used to swap with the ring buffer. When the code is finished with
the reader page, it calls ring_buffer_free_read_page(). Instead of freeing
the page, it stores it as a spare. Then next call to
ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() will return this spare instead of calling
into the memory management system to allocate a new page.

Unfortunately, on freeing of the ring buffer, this spare page is not
freed, and causes a memory leak.

commit f8fa5d76925991976b3e7076f9d1052515ec1fca upstream.

There are multiple ways to grab references to credentials, and the only
protection we have against overflowing it is the memory required to do
so.

With memory sizes only moving in one direction, let's bump the reference
count to 64-bit and move it outside the realm of feasibly overflowing.

commit c0591b1cccf708a47bc465c62436d669a4213323 upstream.

Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is responsible for freeing pages
backing buffered events and this process can run concurrently with
trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve().

The following race is currently possible:

* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called on CPU 0. It
  increments trace_buffered_event_cnt on each CPU and waits via
  synchronize_rcu() for each user of trace_buffered_event to complete.

* After synchronize_rcu() is finished, function
  trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to
  trace_buffered_event. All counters trace_buffered_event_cnt are at 1
  and all pointers trace_buffered_event are still valid.

* At this point, on a different CPU 1, the execution reaches
  trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve(). The function calls
  preempt_disable_notrace() and only now enters an RCU read-side
  critical section. The function proceeds and reads a still valid
  pointer from trace_buffered_event[CPU1] into the local variable
  "entry". However, it doesn't yet read trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1]
  which happens later.

* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() continues. It frees
  trace_buffered_event[CPU1] and decrements
  trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] back to 0.

* Function trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() continues. It reads and
  increments trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] from 0 to 1. This makes it
  believe that it can use the "entry" that it already obtained but the
  pointer is now invalid and any access results in a use-after-free.

Fix the problem by making a second synchronize_rcu() call after all
trace_buffered_event values are set to NULL. This waits on all potential
users in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() that still read a previous
pointer from trace_buffered_event.

For instance, it can be triggered by running these two commands in
parallel:

 $ while true; do
    echo hist:key=id.syscall:val=hitcount &gt; \
      /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger;
  done
 $ stress-ng --sysinfo $(nproc)

The warning indicates that the current ring_buffer_per_cpu is not in the
committing state. It happens because the active ring_buffer_event
doesn't actually come from the ring_buffer_per_cpu but is allocated from
trace_buffered_event.

The bug is in function trace_buffered_event_disable() where the
following normally happens:

* The code invokes disable_trace_buffered_event() via
  smp_call_function_many() and follows it by synchronize_rcu(). This
  increments the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event_cnt on each
  target CPU and grants trace_buffered_event_disable() the exclusive
  access to the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event.

* Maintenance is performed on trace_buffered_event, all per-CPU event
  buffers get freed.

* The code invokes enable_trace_buffered_event() via
  smp_call_function_many(). This decrements trace_buffered_event_cnt and
  releases the access to trace_buffered_event.

A problem is that smp_call_function_many() runs a given function on all
target CPUs except on the current one. The following can then occur:

* Task X executing trace_buffered_event_disable() runs on CPU 0.

* The control reaches synchronize_rcu() and the task gets rescheduled on
  another CPU 1.

* The RCU synchronization finishes. At this point,
  trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to all
  trace_buffered_event variables except trace_buffered_event[CPU0]
  because trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is never incremented and if the
  buffer is currently unused, remains set to 0.

* A different task Y is scheduled on CPU 0 and hits a trace event. The
  code in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() sees that
  trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is set to 0 and decides the use the
  buffer provided by trace_buffered_event[CPU0].

* Task X continues its execution in trace_buffered_event_disable(). The
  code incorrectly frees the event buffer pointed by
  trace_buffered_event[CPU0] and resets the variable to NULL.

* Task Y writes event data to the now freed buffer and later detects the
  created inconsistency.

The issue is observable since commit dea499781a11 ("tracing: Fix warning
in trace_buffered_event_disable()") which moved the call of
trace_buffered_event_disable() in __ftrace_event_enable_disable()
earlier, prior to invoking call-&gt;class-&gt;reg(.. TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER ..).
The underlying problem in trace_buffered_event_disable() is however
present since the original implementation in commit 0fc1b09ff1ff
("tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events").

Fix the problem by replacing the two smp_call_function_many() calls with
on_each_cpu_mask() which invokes a given callback on all CPUs.

For instance, it can be triggered by running these two commands in
parallel:

 $ while true; do
    echo hist:key=id.syscall:val=hitcount &gt; \
      /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger;
  done
 $ stress-ng --sysinfo $(nproc)

The warning indicates that the current ring_buffer_per_cpu is not in the
committing state. It happens because the active ring_buffer_event
doesn't actually come from the ring_buffer_per_cpu but is allocated from
trace_buffered_event.

The bug is in function trace_buffered_event_disable() where the
following normally happens:

* The code invokes disable_trace_buffered_event() via
  smp_call_function_many() and follows it by synchronize_rcu(). This
  increments the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event_cnt on each
  target CPU and grants trace_buffered_event_disable() the exclusive
  access to the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event.

* Maintenance is performed on trace_buffered_event, all per-CPU event
  buffers get freed.

* The code invokes enable_trace_buffered_event() via
  smp_call_function_many(). This decrements trace_buffered_event_cnt and
  releases the access to trace_buffered_event.

A problem is that smp_call_function_many() runs a given function on all
target CPUs except on the current one. The following can then occur:

* Task X executing trace_buffered_event_disable() runs on CPU 0.

* The control reaches synchronize_rcu() and the task gets rescheduled on
  another CPU 1.

* The RCU synchronization finishes. At this point,
  trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to all
  trace_buffered_event variables except trace_buffered_event[CPU0]
  because trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is never incremented and if the
  buffer is currently unused, remains set to 0.

* A different task Y is scheduled on CPU 0 and hits a trace event. The
  code in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() sees that
  trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is set to 0 and decides the use the
  buffer provided by trace_buffered_event[CPU0].

* Task X continues its execution in trace_buffered_event_disable(). The
  code incorrectly frees the event buffer pointed by
  trace_buffered_event[CPU0] and resets the variable to NULL.

* Task Y writes event data to the now freed buffer and later detects the
  created inconsistency.

The issue is observable since commit dea499781a11 ("tracing: Fix warning
in trace_buffered_event_disable()") which moved the call of
trace_buffered_event_disable() in __ftrace_event_enable_disable()
earlier, prior to invoking call-&gt;class-&gt;reg(.. TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER ..).
The underlying problem in trace_buffered_event_disable() is however
present since the original implementation in commit 0fc1b09ff1ff
("tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events").

Fix the problem by replacing the two smp_call_function_many() calls with
on_each_cpu_mask() which invokes a given callback on all CPUs.

<title>tracing: Always update snapshot buffer size</title>

commit 7be76461f302ec05cbd62b90b2a05c64299ca01f upstream.

It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for
latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). The update of the ring buffer
size would check if the instance was the top level and if so, it would
also update the snapshot buffer as it needs to be the same as the main
buffer.

Now that lower level instances also has a snapshot buffer, they too need
to update their snapshot buffer sizes when the main buffer is changed,
otherwise the following can be triggered:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # echo 1500 &gt; buffer_size_kb
 # mkdir instances/foo
 # echo irqsoff &gt; instances/foo/current_tracer
 # echo 1000 &gt; instances/foo/buffer_size_kb

Produces:

 WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 856 at kernel/trace/trace.c:1938 update_max_tr_single.part.0+0x27d/0x320

Which is:

	ret = ring_buffer_swap_cpu(tr-&gt;max_buffer.buffer, tr-&gt;array_buffer.buffer, cpu);

	if (ret == -EBUSY) {
		[..]
	}

	WARN_ON_ONCE(ret &amp;&amp; ret != -EAGAIN &amp;&amp; ret != -EBUSY);  &lt;== here

That's because ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has:

	int ret = -EINVAL;

	[..]

	/* At least make sure the two buffers are somewhat the same */
	if (cpu_buffer_a-&gt;nr_pages != cpu_buffer_b-&gt;nr_pages)
		goto out;

	[..]
 out:
	return ret;
 }

Instead, update all instances' snapshot buffer sizes when their main
buffer size is updated.

[ Upstream commit 34209fe83ef8404353f91ab4ea4035dbc9922d04 ]

Function trace_buffered_event_disable() produces an unexpected warning
when the previous call to trace_buffered_event_enable() fails to
allocate pages for buffered events.

The situation can occur as follows:

* The counter trace_buffered_event_ref is at 0.

* The soft mode gets enabled for some event and
  trace_buffered_event_enable() is called. The function increments
  trace_buffered_event_ref to 1 and starts allocating event pages.

* The allocation fails for some page and trace_buffered_event_disable()
  is called for cleanup.

* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() decrements
  trace_buffered_event_ref back to 0, recognizes that it was the last
  use of buffered events and frees all allocated pages.

* The control goes back to trace_buffered_event_enable() which returns.
  The caller of trace_buffered_event_enable() has no information that
  the function actually failed.

* Some time later, the soft mode is disabled for the same event.
  Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called. It warns on
  "WARN_ON_ONCE(!trace_buffered_event_ref)" and returns.

Buffered events are just an optimization and can handle failures. Make
trace_buffered_event_enable() exit on the first failure and left any
cleanup later to when trace_buffered_event_disable() is called.

commit 5e7afb2eb7b2a7c81e9f608cbdf74a07606fd1b5 upstream.

irq_remove_generic_chip() calculates the Linux interrupt number for removing the
handler and interrupt chip based on gc::irq_base as a linear function of
the bit positions of set bits in the @msk argument.

When the generic chip is present in an irq domain, i.e. created with a call
to irq_alloc_domain_generic_chips(), gc::irq_base contains not the base
Linux interrupt number.  It contains the base hardware interrupt for this
chip. It is set to 0 for the first chip in the domain, 0 + N for the next
chip, where $N is the number of hardware interrupts per chip.

That means the Linux interrupt number cannot be calculated based on
gc::irq_base for irqdomain based chips without a domain map lookup, which
is currently missing.

Rework the code to take the irqdomain case into account and calculate the
Linux interrupt number by a irqdomain lookup of the domain specific
hardware interrupt number.

commit d08970df1980476f27936e24d452550f3e9e92e1 upstream.

In snapshot_write_next(), sync_read is set and unset in three different
spots unnecessiarly. As a result there is a subtle bug where the first
page after the meta data has been loaded unconditionally sets sync_read
to 0. If this first PFN was actually a highmem page, then the returned
buffer will be the global "buffer," and the page needs to be loaded
synchronously.

That is, I'm not sure we can always assume the following to be safe:

	handle-&gt;buffer = get_buffer(&amp;orig_bm, &amp;ca);
	handle-&gt;sync_read = 0;

Because get_buffer() can call get_highmem_page_buffer() which can
return 'buffer'.

The easiest way to address this is just set sync_read before
snapshot_write_next() returns if handle-&gt;buffer == buffer.

get_buffer() would gladly try to use a NULL pointer.

commit 969d90ec212bae4b45bf9d21d7daa30aa6cf055e upstream.

eBPF can end up calling into the audit code from some odd places, and
some of these places don't have @current set properly so we end up
tripping the `WARN_ON_ONCE(!current-&gt;mm)` near the top of
`audit_exe_compare()`.  While the basic `!current-&gt;mm` check is good,
the `WARN_ON_ONCE()` results in some scary console messages so let's
drop that and just do the regular `!current-&gt;mm` check to avoid
problems.
