commit 7e2cfbd2d3c86afcd5c26b5c4b1dd251f63c5838 upstream.

The option files update the options for a given trace array. For an
instance, if the file is opened and the instance is deleted, reading or
writing to the file will cause a use after free.

Up the ref count of the trace_array when an option file is opened.

commit f5ca233e2e66dc1c249bf07eefa37e34a6c9346a upstream.

When the trace event enable and filter files are opened, increment the
trace array ref counter, otherwise they can be accessed when the trace
array is being deleted. The ref counter keeps the trace array from being
deleted while those files are opened.

commit e5c624f027ac74f97e97c8f36c69228ac9f1102d upstream.

The event inject files add events for a specific trace array. For an
instance, if the file is opened and the instance is deleted, reading or
writing to the file will cause a use after free.

Up the ref count of the trace_array when a event inject file is opened.

<title>panic: Reenable preemption in WARN slowpath</title>

[ Upstream commit cccd32816506cbac3a4c65d9dff51b3125ef1a03 ]

Commit:

  5a5d7e9badd2 ("cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG")

amended warn_slowpath_fmt() to disable preemption until the WARN splat
has been emitted.

However the commit neglected to reenable preemption in the !fmt codepath,
i.e. when a WARN splat is emitted without additional format string.

One consequence is that users may see more splats than intended.  E.g. a
WARN splat emitted in a work item results in at least two extra splats:

  BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic
  (emitted by process_one_work())

  BUG: scheduling while atomic
  (emitted by worker_thread() -&gt; schedule())

Ironically the point of the commit was to *avoid* extra splats. ;)

Fix it.

[ Upstream commit 696ffaf50e1f8dbc66223ff614473f945f5fb8d8 ]

Printing to consoles can be deferred for several reasons:

- explicitly with printk_deferred()
- printk() in NMI context
- recursive printk() calls

The current implementation is not consistent. For printk_deferred(),
irq work is scheduled twice. For NMI und recursive, panic CPU
suppression and caller delays are not properly enforced.

Correct these inconsistencies by consolidating the deferred printing
code so that vprintk_deferred() is the top-level function for
deferred printing and vprintk_emit() will perform whichever irq_work
queueing is appropriate.

Also add kerneldoc for wake_up_klogd() and defer_console_output() to
clarify their differences and appropriate usage.

[ Upstream commit 51a1d258e50e03a0216bf42b6af9ff34ec402ac1 ]

When in a panic situation, non-panic CPUs should avoid holding the
console lock so as not to contend with the panic CPU. This is already
implemented with abandon_console_lock_in_panic(), which is checked
after each printed line. However, non-panic CPUs should also avoid
trying to acquire the console lock during a panic.

Modify console_trylock() to fail and console_lock() to block() when
called from a non-panic CPU during a panic.

<title>scftorture: Forgive memory-allocation failure if KASAN</title>

[ Upstream commit 013608cd0812bdb21fc26d39ed8fdd2fc76e8b9b ]

Kernels built with CONFIG_KASAN=y quarantine newly freed memory in order
to better detect use-after-free errors.  However, this can exhaust memory
more quickly in allocator-heavy tests, which can result in spurious
scftorture failure.  This commit therefore forgives memory-allocation
failure in kernels built with CONFIG_KASAN=y, but continues counting
the errors for use in detailed test-result analyses.

<title>rcuscale: Move rcu_scale_writer() schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() to _idle()</title>

[ Upstream commit e60c122a1614b4f65b29a7bef9d83b9fd30e937a ]

The rcuscale.holdoff module parameter can be used to delay the start
of rcu_scale_writer() kthread.  However, the hung-task timeout will
trigger when the timeout specified by rcuscale.holdoff is greater than
hung_task_timeout_secs:

runqemu kvm nographic slirp qemuparams="-smp 4 -m 2048M"
bootparams="rcuscale.shutdown=0 rcuscale.holdoff=300"
