commit e20d3a055a457a10a4c748ce5b7c2ed3173a1324 upstream.

This if guards whether user-space wants a copy of the offload-jited
bytecode and whether this bytecode exists. By erroneously doing a bitwise
AND instead of a logical AND on user- and kernel-space buffer-size can lead
to no data being copied to user-space especially when user-space size is a
power of two and bigger then the kernel-space buffer.

<title>genirq/proc: Reject invalid affinity masks (again)</title>

commit cba6437a1854fde5934098ec3bd0ee83af3129f5 upstream.

Qian Cai reported that the WARN_ON() in the x86/msi affinity setting code,
which catches cases where the affinity setting is not done on the CPU which
is the current target of the interrupt, triggers during CPU hotplug stress
testing.

It turns out that the warning which was added with the commit addressing
the MSI affinity race unearthed yet another long standing bug.

If user space writes a bogus affinity mask, i.e. it contains no online CPUs,
then it calls irq_select_affinity_usr(). This was introduced for ALPHA in

  eee45269b0f5 ("[PATCH] Alpha: convert to generic irq framework (generic part)")

and subsequently made available for all architectures in

  18404756765c ("genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)")

which introduced the circumvention of the affinity setting restrictions for
interrupt which cannot be moved in process context.

The whole exercise is bogus in various aspects:

  1) If the interrupt is already started up then there is absolutely
     no point to honour a bogus interrupt affinity setting from user
     space. The interrupt is already assigned to an online CPU and it
     does not make any sense to reassign it to some other randomly
     chosen online CPU.

  2) If the interupt is not yet started up then there is no point
     either. A subsequent startup of the interrupt will invoke
     irq_setup_affinity() anyway which will chose a valid target CPU.

So the only correct solution is to just return -EINVAL in case user space
wrote an affinity mask which does not contain any online CPUs, except for
ALPHA which has it's own magic sauce for this.

commit 6fcca0fa48118e6d63733eb4644c6cd880c15b8f upstream.

Issuing write() with count parameter set to 0 on any file under
/proc/pressure/ will cause an OOB write because of the access to
buf[buf_size-1] when NUL-termination is performed. Fix this by checking
for buf_size to be non-zero.

[ Upstream commit 6722b23e7a2ace078344064a9735fb73e554e9ef ]

if seq_file .next fuction does not change position index,
read after some lseek can generate unexpected output.

[ Upstream commit c79108bd19a8490315847e0c95ac6526fcd8e770 ]

The alarmtimer_suspend() function will fail if an RTC device is on a bus
such as SPI or i2c and that RTC device registers and probes after
alarmtimer_init() registers and probes the 'alarmtimer' platform device.

This is because system wide suspend suspends devices in the reverse order
of their probe. When alarmtimer_suspend() attempts to program the RTC for a
wakeup it will try to program an RTC device on a bus that has already been
suspended.

Move the alarmtimer device registration to happen when the RTC which is
used for wakeup is registered. Register the 'alarmtimer' platform device as
a child of the RTC device too, so that it can be guaranteed that the RTC
device won't be suspended when alarmtimer_suspend() is called.

[ Upstream commit 708e0ada1916be765b7faa58854062f2bc620bbf ]

In setup_load_info(), info-&gt;name (which contains the name of the module,
mostly used for early logging purposes before the module gets set up)
gets unconditionally assigned if .modinfo is missing despite the fact
that there is an if (!info-&gt;name) check near the end of the function.
Avoid assigning a placeholder string to info-&gt;name if .modinfo doesn't
exist, so that we can fall back to info-&gt;mod-&gt;name later on.

Fixes: 5fdc7db6448a ("module: setup load info before module_sig_check()")

<title>watchdog/softlockup: Enforce that timestamp is valid on boot</title>

[ Upstream commit 11e31f608b499f044f24b20be73f1dcab3e43f8a ]

Robert reported that during boot the watchdog timestamp is set to 0 for one
second which is the indicator for a watchdog reset.

The reason for this is that the timestamp is in seconds and the time is
taken from sched clock and divided by ~1e9. sched clock starts at 0 which
means that for the first second during boot the watchdog timestamp is 0,
i.e. reset.

Use ULONG_MAX as the reset indicator value so the watchdog works correctly
right from the start. ULONG_MAX would only conflict with a real timestamp
if the system reaches an uptime of 136 years on 32bit and almost eternity
on 64bit.

<title>sched/topology: Assert non-NUMA topology masks don't (partially) overlap</title>

[ Upstream commit ccf74128d66ce937876184ad55db2e0276af08d3 ]

topology.c::get_group() relies on the assumption that non-NUMA domains do
not partially overlap. Zeng Tao pointed out in [1] that such topology
descriptions, while completely bogus, can end up being exposed to the
scheduler.

In his example (8 CPUs, 2-node system), we end up with:
  MC span for CPU3 == 3-7
  MC span for CPU4 == 4-7

The first pass through get_group(3, sdd@MC) will result in the following
sched_group list:

  3 -&gt; 4 -&gt; 5 -&gt; 6 -&gt; 7
  ^                  /
   `----------------'

And a later pass through get_group(4, sdd@MC) will "corrupt" that to:

  3 -&gt; 4 -&gt; 5 -&gt; 6 -&gt; 7
       ^             /
	`-----------'

which will completely break things like 'while (sg != sd-&gt;groups)' when
using CPU3's base sched_domain.

There already are some architecture-specific checks in place such as
x86/kernel/smpboot.c::topology.sane(), but this is something we can detect
in the core scheduler, so it seems worthwhile to do so.

Warn and abort the construction of the sched domains if such a broken
topology description is detected. Note that this is somewhat
expensive (O(t.c²), 't' non-NUMA topology levels and 'c' CPUs) and could be
gated under SCHED_DEBUG if deemed necessary.

Testing

Dietmar managed to reproduce this using the following qemu incantation:

  $ qemu-system-aarch64 -kernel ./Image -hda ./qemu-image-aarch64.img \

  cores=8 --nographic -m 512 -cpu cortex-a53 -machine virt -numa \
  node,cpus=0-2,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=3-7,nodeid=1

alongside the following drivers/base/arch_topology.c hack (AIUI wouldn't be
needed if '-smp cores=X, sockets=Y' would work with qemu):
