[ Upstream commit 8c7188b23474cca017b3ef354c4a58456f68303a ]

Sasha's found a NULL pointer dereference in the RDS connection code when
sending a message to an apparently unbound socket.  The problem is caused
by the code checking if the socket is bound in rds_sendmsg(), which checks
the rs_bound_addr field without taking a lock on the socket.  This opens a
race where rs_bound_addr is temporarily set but where the transport is not
in rds_bind(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference when trying to
dereference 'trans' in __rds_conn_create().

Vegard wrote a reproducer for this issue, so kindly ask him to share if
you're interested.

I cannot reproduce the NULL pointer dereference using Vegard's reproducer
with this patch, whereas I could without.

Complete earlier incomplete fix to CVE-2015-6937:

<title>RDS-TCP: Recover correctly from pskb_pull()/pksb_trim() failure in rds_tcp_data_recv</title>

<content type='text'>
Either of pskb_pull() or pskb_trim() may fail under low memory conditions.
If rds_tcp_data_recv() ignores such failures, the application will
receive corrupted data because the skb has not been correctly
carved to the RDS datagram size.

Avoid this by handling pskb_pull/pskb_trim failure in the same
manner as the skb_clone failure: bail out of rds_tcp_data_recv(), and
retry via the deferred call to rds_send_worker() that gets set up on
ENOMEM from rds_tcp_read_sock()

There was no verification that an underlying transport exists when creating
a connection, this would cause dereferencing a NULL ptr.

It might happen on sockets that weren't properly bound before attempting to
send a message, which will cause a NULL ptr deref:

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes.  I've put them through a
  decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
  that.

  There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
  go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
  than waiting for those last few fixups.

  Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
  temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
  cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack.  We
  deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
  back if we can deprecate another one (ehca).  We also put Intel's new
  hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
  transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
  the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
  that library.

  I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
  releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
  deletions of deprecated drivers are done.

  Summary of changes for 4.3:

   - Create drivers/staging/rdma
   - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
     tree
   - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
   - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
   - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read
     and write scatter gather capabilities
   - Various iSER updates
   - Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations
   - Update SRP driver
   - Misc  mlx4 driver updates
   - Support for the mr_alloc verb
   - Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache
     daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution
   - Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices"

The majority of callers never check the return value, and even if they
did, they can't do anything about a failure.

All possible failure cases represent a bug in the caller, so just
WARN_ON inside the function instead.

This fixes a few random errors:
 net/rd/iw.c infinite loops while it fails. (racing with EBUSY?)

This also lays the ground work to get rid of error return from the
drivers. Most drivers do not error, the few that do are broken since
it cannot be handled.

Since uverbs can legitimately make use of EBUSY, open code the
check.

<title>IB/core: lock client data with lists_rwsem</title>

<id>7c1eb45a22d76bb99236e7485958f87ef7c449cf</id>
<content type='text'>
An ib_client callback that is called with the lists_rwsem locked only for
read is protected from changes to the IB client lists, but not from
ib_unregister_device() freeing its client data. This is because
ib_unregister_device() will remove the device from the device list with
lists_rwsem locked for write, but perform the rest of the cleanup,
including the call to remove() without that lock.

Mark client data that is undergoing de-registration with a new going_down
flag in the client data context. Lock the client data list with lists_rwsem
for write in addition to using the spinlock, so that functions calling the
callback would be able to lock only lists_rwsem for read and let callbacks
sleep.

Since ib_unregister_client() now marks the client data context, no need for
remove() to search the context again, so pass the client data directly to
remove() callbacks.
