[ Upstream commit 92d1d07daad65c300c7d0b68bbef8867e9895d54 ]

Kmemleak throws endless warnings during boot due to in
__alloc_alien_cache(),

    alc = kmalloc_node(memsize, gfp, node);
    init_arraycache(&amp;alc-&gt;ac, entries, batch);
    kmemleak_no_scan(ac);

Kmemleak does not track the array cache (alc-&gt;ac) but the alien cache
(alc) instead, so let it track the latter by lifting kmemleak_no_scan()
out of init_arraycache().

There is another place that calls init_arraycache(), but
alloc_kmem_cache_cpus() uses the percpu allocation where will never be
considered as a leak.

Fix it by checking if calculated address is within vstart/vend range.

[ Upstream commit 0d3bd18a5efd66097ef58622b898d3139790aa9d ]

In case cma_init_reserved_mem failed, need to free the memblock
allocated by memblock_reserve or memblock_alloc_range.

Quote Catalin's comments:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/2/26/482

Kmemleak is supposed to work with the memblock_{alloc,free} pair and it
ignores the memblock_reserve() as a memblock_alloc() implementation
detail. It is, however, tolerant to memblock_free() being called on
a sub-range or just a different range from a previous memblock_alloc().
So the original patch looks fine to me. FWIW:

commit 29b00e609960ae0fcff382f4c7079dd0874a5311 upstream.

When we made the shmem_reserve_inode call in shmem_link conditional, we
forgot to update the declaration for ret so that it always has a known
value.  Dan Carpenter pointed out this deficiency in the original patch.

<title>mm/vmalloc: fix size check for remap_vmalloc_range_partial()</title>

commit 401592d2e095947344e10ec0623adbcd58934dd4 upstream.

When VM_NO_GUARD is not set area-&gt;size includes adjacent guard page,
thus for correct size checking get_vm_area_size() should be used, but
not area-&gt;size.

This fixes possible kernel oops when userspace tries to mmap an area on
1 page bigger than was allocated by vmalloc_user() call: the size check
inside remap_vmalloc_range_partial() accounts non-existing guard page
also, so check successfully passes but vmalloc_to_page() returns NULL
(guard page does not physically exist).

The following code pattern example should trigger an oops:

  static int oops_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
  {
        void *mem;

        mem = vmalloc_user(4096);
        BUG_ON(!mem);
        /* Do not care about mem leak */

        return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, mem, 0);
  }

And userspace simply mmaps size + PAGE_SIZE:

  mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);

Possible candidates for oops which do not have any explicit size
checks:

   *** drivers/media/usb/stkwebcam/stk-webcam.c:
   v4l_stk_mmap[789]   ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, sbuf-&gt;buffer, 0);

Or the following one:

   *** drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c
   static int
   fb_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
        ...
        res = fb-&gt;fb_mmap(info, vma);

Where fb_mmap callback calls remap_vmalloc_range() directly without any
explicit checks:

   *** drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c
   static int vfb_mmap(struct fb_info *info,
             struct vm_area_struct *vma)
   {
       return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, (void *)info-&gt;fix.smem_start, vma-&gt;vm_pgoff);
   }

<title>tmpfs: fix link accounting when a tmpfile is linked in</title>

[ Upstream commit 1062af920c07f5b54cf5060fde3339da6df0cf6b ]

tmpfs has a peculiarity of accounting hard links as if they were
separate inodes: so that when the number of inodes is limited, as it is
by default, a user cannot soak up an unlimited amount of unreclaimable
dcache memory just by repeatedly linking a file.

But when v3.11 added O_TMPFILE, and the ability to use linkat() on the
fd, we missed accommodating this new case in tmpfs: "df -i" shows that
an extra "inode" remains accounted after the file is unlinked and the fd
closed and the actual inode evicted.  If a user repeatedly links
tmpfiles into a tmpfs, the limit will be hit (ENOSPC) even after they
are deleted.

Just skip the extra reservation from shmem_link() in this case: there's
a sense in which this first link of a tmpfile is then cheaper than a
hard link of another file, but the accounting works out, and there's
still good limiting, so no need to do anything more complicated.

[ Upstream commit efad4e475c312456edb3c789d0996d12ed744c13 ]

Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: fix uninitialized pages fallouts", v2.

Mikhail Zaslonko has posted fixes for the two bugs quite some time ago
[1].  I have pushed back on those fixes because I believed that it is
much better to plug the problem at the initialization time rather than
play whack-a-mole all over the hotplug code and find all the places
which expect the full memory section to be initialized.

We have ended up with commit 2830bf6f05fb ("mm, memory_hotplug:
initialize struct pages for the full memory section") merged and cause a
regression [2][3].  The reason is that there might be memory layouts
when two NUMA nodes share the same memory section so the merged fix is
simply incorrect.

In order to plug this hole we really have to be zone range aware in
those handlers.  I have split up the original patch into two.  One is
unchanged (patch 2) and I took a different approach for `removable'
crash.

This patch (of 2):

Mikhail has reported the following VM_BUG_ON triggered when reading sysfs
removable state of a memory block:

 page:000003d08300c000 is uninitialized and poisoned
 page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(p))

The reason is that the memory block spans the zone boundary and we are
stumbling over an unitialized struct page.  Fix this by enforcing zone
range in is_mem_section_removable so that we never run away from a zone.

<title>hugetlbfs: fix races and page leaks during migration</title>

commit cb6acd01e2e43fd8bad11155752b7699c3d0fb76 upstream.

hugetlb pages should only be migrated if they are 'active'.  The
routines set/clear_page_huge_active() modify the active state of hugetlb
pages.

When a new hugetlb page is allocated at fault time, set_page_huge_active
is called before the page is locked.  Therefore, another thread could
race and migrate the page while it is being added to page table by the
fault code.  This race is somewhat hard to trigger, but can be seen by
strategically adding udelay to simulate worst case scheduling behavior.
Depending on 'how' the code races, various BUG()s could be triggered.

To address this issue, simply delay the set_page_huge_active call until
after the page is successfully added to the page table.

Hugetlb pages can also be leaked at migration time if the pages are
associated with a file in an explicitly mounted hugetlbfs filesystem.
For example, consider a two node system with 4GB worth of huge pages
available.  A program mmaps a 2G file in a hugetlbfs filesystem.  It
then migrates the pages associated with the file from one node to
another.  When the program exits, huge page counts are as follows:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  0       free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

That is as expected.  2G of huge pages are taken from the free_hugepages
counts, and 2G is the size of the file in the explicitly mounted
filesystem.  If the file is then removed, the counts become:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

Note that the filesystem still shows 2G of pages used, while there
actually are no huge pages in use.  The only way to 'fix' the filesystem
accounting is to unmount the filesystem

If a hugetlb page is associated with an explicitly mounted filesystem,
this information in contained in the page_private field.  At migration
time, this information is not preserved.  To fix, simply transfer
page_private from old to new page at migration time if necessary.

There is a related race with removing a huge page from a file and
migration.  When a huge page is removed from the pagecache, the
page_mapping() field is cleared, yet page_private remains set until the
page is actually freed by free_huge_page().  A page could be migrated
while in this state.  However, since page_mapping() is not set the
hugetlbfs specific routine to transfer page_private is not called and we
leak the page count in the filesystem.

To fix that, check for this condition before migrating a huge page.  If
the condition is detected, return EBUSY for the page.

is called before the page is locked.  Therefore, another thread could
race and migrate the page while it is being added to page table by the
fault code.  This race is somewhat hard to trigger, but can be seen by
strategically adding udelay to simulate worst case scheduling behavior.
Depending on 'how' the code races, various BUG()s could be triggered.

To address this issue, simply delay the set_page_huge_active call until
after the page is successfully added to the page table.

Hugetlb pages can also be leaked at migration time if the pages are
associated with a file in an explicitly mounted hugetlbfs filesystem.
For example, consider a two node system with 4GB worth of huge pages
available.  A program mmaps a 2G file in a hugetlbfs filesystem.  It
then migrates the pages associated with the file from one node to
another.  When the program exits, huge page counts are as follows:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  0       free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

That is as expected.  2G of huge pages are taken from the free_hugepages
counts, and 2G is the size of the file in the explicitly mounted
filesystem.  If the file is then removed, the counts become:

  node0
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  node1
  1024    free_hugepages
  1024    nr_hugepages

  Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  nodev                              4.0G  2.0G  2.0G  50% /var/opt/hugepool

Note that the filesystem still shows 2G of pages used, while there
actually are no huge pages in use.  The only way to 'fix' the filesystem
accounting is to unmount the filesystem

If a hugetlb page is associated with an explicitly mounted filesystem,
this information in contained in the page_private field.  At migration
time, this information is not preserved.  To fix, simply transfer
page_private from old to new page at migration time if necessary.

There is a related race with removing a huge page from a file and
migration.  When a huge page is removed from the pagecache, the
page_mapping() field is cleared, yet page_private remains set until the
page is actually freed by free_huge_page().  A page could be migrated
while in this state.  However, since page_mapping() is not set the
hugetlbfs specific routine to transfer page_private is not called and we
leak the page count in the filesystem.

To fix that, check for this condition before migrating a huge page.  If
the condition is detected, return EBUSY for the page.

commit 0a1d52994d440e21def1c2174932410b4f2a98a1 upstream.

security_mmap_addr() does a capability check with current_cred(), but
we can reach this code from contexts like a VFS write handler where
current_cred() must not be used.

This can be abused on systems without SMAP to make NULL pointer
dereferences exploitable again.

<title>numa: change get_mempolicy() to use nr_node_ids instead of MAX_NUMNODES</title>

commit 050c17f239fd53adb55aa768d4f41bc76c0fe045 upstream.

The system call, get_mempolicy() [1], passes an unsigned long *nodemask
pointer and an unsigned long maxnode argument which specifies the length
of the user's nodemask array in bits (which is rounded up).  The manual
page says that if the maxnode value is too small, get_mempolicy will
return EINVAL but there is no system call to return this minimum value.
To determine this value, some programs search /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/status for a
line starting with "Mems_allowed:" and use the number of digits in the
mask to determine the minimum value.  A recent change to the way this line
is formatted [2] causes these programs to compute a value less than
MAX_NUMNODES so get_mempolicy() returns EINVAL.

Change get_mempolicy(), the older compat version of get_mempolicy(), and
the copy_nodes_to_user() function to use nr_node_ids instead of
MAX_NUMNODES, thus preserving the defacto method of computing the minimum
size for the nodemask array and the maxnode argument.
