commit 4c03b862b12f980456f9de92db6d508a4999b788 upstream.

A nested lock depth was added to the hasbin_delete() code but it
doesn't actually work some well and results in tons of lockdep splats.

Fix the code instead to properly drop the lock around the operation
and just keep peeking the head of the hashbin queue.

commit 5ba092efc7ddff040777ae7162f1d195f513571b upstream.

If iriap_register_lsap() fails to allocate memory, self-&gt;lsap is
set to NULL. However, none of the callers handle the failure and
irlmp_connect_request() will happily dereference it:

    iriap_register_lsap: Unable to allocated LSAP!

    ================================================================================

The bug seems to have been around since forever.

There's more problems with missing error checks in iriap_init() (and
indeed all of irda_init()), but that's a bigger problem that needs
very careful review and testing. This patch will fix the most serious
bug (as it's easily reached from unprivileged userspace).

I have tested my patch with a reproducer.

<title>net: add validation for the socket syscall protocol argument</title>

[ Upstream commit 79462ad02e861803b3840cc782248c7359451cd9 ]

郭永刚 reported that one could simply crash the kernel as root by
using a simple program:

	int socket_fd;
	struct sockaddr_in addr;
	addr.sin_port = 0;
	addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
	addr.sin_family = 10;

	socket_fd = socket(10,3,0x40000000);
	connect(socket_fd , &amp;addr,16);

AF_INET, AF_INET6 sockets actually only support 8-bit protocol
identifiers. inet_sock's skc_protocol field thus is sized accordingly,
thus larger protocol identifiers simply cut off the higher bits and
store a zero in the protocol fields.

This could lead to e.g. NULL function pointer because as a result of
the cut off inet_num is zero and we call down to inet_autobind, which
is NULL for raw sockets.

kernel: Call Trace:
kernel:  [&lt;ffffffff816db90e&gt;] ? inet_autobind+0x2e/0x70
kernel:  [&lt;ffffffff816db9a4&gt;] inet_dgram_connect+0x54/0x80

I found no particular commit which introduced this problem.

	addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
	addr.sin_family = 10;

	socket_fd = socket(10,3,0x40000000);
	connect(socket_fd , &amp;addr,16);

AF_INET, AF_INET6 sockets actually only support 8-bit protocol
identifiers. inet_sock's skc_protocol field thus is sized accordingly,
thus larger protocol identifiers simply cut off the higher bits and
store a zero in the protocol fields.

This could lead to e.g. NULL function pointer because as a result of
the cut off inet_num is zero and we call down to inet_autobind, which
is NULL for raw sockets.

commit 2c3fbe3cf28fbd7001545a92a83b4f8acfd9fa36 upstream.

In case an infinite timeout (0) is requested, the irda wait_until_sent
implementation would use a zero poll timeout rather than the default
200ms.

Note that wait_until_sent is currently never called with a 0-timeout
argument due to a bug in tty_wait_until_sent.

<title>net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic</title>

<id>2f73d7fde99d702cba6a05062c27605a6eef1b78</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f3d3342602f8bcbf37d7c46641cb9bca7618eb1c ]

This patch now always passes msg-&gt;msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must
set msg_namelen to the proper size &lt;= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
to return msg_name to the user.

This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the
recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak
uninitialized memory.

Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't
need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the
recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must
cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets
msg_name to NULL.

Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David
Miller.

Changes since RFC:

Set msg-&gt;msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of
verify_iovec.

With this change in place I could remove "
if (!uaddr || msg_sys-&gt;msg_namelen == 0)
	msg-&gt;msg_name = NULL
".

This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore
msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL.

Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change
comments to netdev style.

<title>net: irda: using kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() to avoid strncpy() issue.</title>

<content type='text'>
'discovery-&gt;data.info' length is 22, NICKNAME_MAX_LEN is 21, so the
strncpy() will always left the last byte of 'discovery-&gt;data.info'
uninitialized.

When 'text' length is longer than 21 (NICKNAME_MAX_LEN), if still left
the last byte of 'discovery-&gt;data.info' uninitialized, the next
strlen() will cause issue.

Also 'discovery-&gt;data' is 'struct irda_device_info' which defined in
"include/uapi/...", it may copy to user mode, so need whole initialized.

All together, need use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() to initialize all
members firstly.

Pull tty/serial driver update from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here's the big tty/serial driver merge request for 3.10-rc1

  Once again, Jiri has a number of TTY driver fixes and cleanups, and
  Peter Hurley came through with a bunch of ldisc fixes that resolve a
  number of reported issues.  There are some other serial driver
  cleanups as well.

  All of these have been in the linux-next tree for a while"
