commit e3ff9c3678b4d80e22d2557b68726174578eaf52 upstream.

Jason reported that the coarse ktime based time getters advance only once
per second and not once per tick as advertised.

The code reads only the monotonic base time, which advances once per
second. The nanoseconds are accumulated on every tick in xtime_nsec up to
a second and the regular time getters take this nanoseconds offset into
account, but the ktime_get_coarse*() implementation fails to do so.

Add the accumulated xtime_nsec value to the monotonic base time to get the
proper per tick advancing coarse tinme.

commit f01098c74b5219f3969d4750eeed1a36bfc038e3 upstream.

Just like the case of commit 8b05a3a7503c ("tracing/kprobes: Fix NULL
pointer dereference in trace_kprobe_create()"), writing an incorrectly
formatted string to uprobe_events can trigger NULL pointer dereference.

<title>tracing: Prevent hist_field_var_ref() from accessing NULL tracing_map_elts</title>

[ Upstream commit 55267c88c003a3648567beae7c90512d3e2ab15e ]

hist_field_var_ref() is an implementation of hist_field_fn_t(), which
can be called with a null tracing_map_elt elt param when assembling a
key in event_hist_trigger().

In the case of hist_field_var_ref() this doesn't make sense, because a
variable can only be resolved by looking it up using an already
assembled key i.e. a variable can't be used to assemble a key since
the key is required in order to access the variable.

Upper layers should prevent the user from constructing a key using a
variable in the first place, but in case one slips through, it
shouldn't cause a NULL pointer dereference.  Also if one does slip
through, we want to know about it, so emit a one-time warning in that
case.

commit f6581f5b55141a95657ef5742cf6a6bfa20a109f upstream.

Restore the read memory barrier in __ptrace_may_access() that was deleted
a couple years ago. Also add comments on this barrier and the one it pairs
with to explain why they're there (as far as I understand).

<title>signal/ptrace: Don't leak unitialized kernel memory with PTRACE_PEEK_SIGINFO</title>

commit f6e2aa91a46d2bc79fce9b93a988dbe7655c90c0 upstream.

Recently syzbot in conjunction with KMSAN reported that
ptrace_peek_siginfo can copy an uninitialized siginfo to userspace.
Inspecting ptrace_peek_siginfo confirms this.

The problem is that off when initialized from args.off can be
initialized to a negaive value.  At which point the "if (off &gt;= 0)"
test to see if off became negative fails because off started off
negative.

Prevent the core problem by adding a variable found that is only true
if a siginfo is found and copied to a temporary in preparation for
being copied to userspace.

Prevent args.off from being truncated when being assigned to off by
testing that off is &lt;= the maximum possible value of off.  Convert off
to an unsigned long so that we should not have to truncate args.off,
we have well defined overflow behavior so if we add another check we
won't risk fighting undefined compiler behavior, and so that we have a
type whose maximum value is easy to test for.

commit f6e2aa91a46d2bc79fce9b93a988dbe7655c90c0 upstream.

Recently syzbot in conjunction with KMSAN reported that
ptrace_peek_siginfo can copy an uninitialized siginfo to userspace.
Inspecting ptrace_peek_siginfo confirms this.

The problem is that off when initialized from args.off can be
initialized to a negaive value.  At which point the "if (off &gt;= 0)"
test to see if off became negative fails because off started off
negative.

Prevent the core problem by adding a variable found that is only true
if a siginfo is found and copied to a temporary in preparation for
being copied to userspace.

Prevent args.off from being truncated when being assigned to off by
testing that off is &lt;= the maximum possible value of off.  Convert off
to an unsigned long so that we should not have to truncate args.off,
we have well defined overflow behavior so if we add another check we
won't risk fighting undefined compiler behavior, and so that we have a
type whose maximum value is easy to test for.

<title>ntp: Allow TAI-UTC offset to be set to zero</title>

[ Upstream commit fdc6bae940ee9eb869e493990540098b8c0fd6ab ]

The ADJ_TAI adjtimex mode sets the TAI-UTC offset of the system clock.
It is typically set by NTP/PTP implementations and it is automatically
updated by the kernel on leap seconds. The initial value is zero (which
applications may interpret as unknown), but this value cannot be set by
adjtimex. This limitation seems to go back to the original "nanokernel"
implementation by David Mills.

Change the ADJ_TAI check to accept zero as a valid TAI-UTC offset in
order to allow setting it back to the initial value.

<title>bpf: fix undefined behavior in narrow load handling</title>

[ Upstream commit e2f7fc0ac6957cabff4cecf6c721979b571af208 ]

Commit 31fd85816dbe ("bpf: permits narrower load from bpf program
context fields") made the verifier add AND instructions to clear the
unwanted bits with a mask when doing a narrow load. The mask is
computed with

  (1 &lt;&lt; size * 8) - 1

where "size" is the size of the narrow load. When doing a 4 byte load
of a an 8 byte field the verifier shifts the literal 1 by 32 places to
the left. This results in an overflow of a signed integer, which is an
undefined behavior. Typically, the computed mask was zero, so the
result of the narrow load ended up being zero too.

Cast the literal to long long to avoid overflows. Note that narrow
load of the 4 byte fields does not have the undefined behavior,
because the load size can only be either 1 or 2 bytes, so shifting 1
by 8 or 16 places will not overflow it. And reading 4 bytes would not
be a narrow load of a 4 bytes field.

[ Upstream commit a9e73998f9d705c94a8dca9687633adc0f24a19a ]

While validating new map we require the @start_data to be strictly less
than @end_data, which is fine for regular applications (this is why this
nit didn't trigger for that long).  These members are set from executable
loaders such as elf handers, still it is pretty valid to have a loadable
data section with zero size in file, in such case the start_data is equal
to end_data once kernel loader finishes.

As a result when we're trying to restore such programs the procedure fails
and the kernel returns -EINVAL.  From the image dump of a program:

 | "mm_start_code": "0x400000",
 | "mm_end_code": "0x8f5fb4",
 | "mm_start_data": "0xf1bfb0",
 | "mm_end_data": "0xf1bfb0",

Thus we need to change validate_prctl_map from strictly less to less or
equal operator use.

[ Upstream commit e260ad01f0aa9e96b5386d5cd7184afd949dc457 ]

Currently when userspace gives us a values that overflow e.g.  file-max
and other callers of __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() we simply ignore the
new value and leave the current value untouched.

This can be problematic as it gives the illusion that the limit has
indeed be bumped when in fact it failed.  This commit makes sure to
return EINVAL when an overflow is detected.  Please note that this is a
userspace facing change.
