rds: ib: add error handle

2017-10-08T08:14:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3b12f73a5c2977153f28a224392fd4729b50d1dc ]

In the function rds_ib_setup_qp, the error handle is missing. When some
error occurs, it is possible that memory leak occurs. As such, error
handle is added.

RDS: RDMA: Fix the composite message user notification

2017-10-08T08:14:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 941f8d55f6d613a460a5e080d25a38509f45eb75 ]

When application sends an RDS RDMA composite message consist of
RDMA transfer to be followed up by non RDMA payload, it expect to
be notified *only* when the full message gets delivered. RDS RDMA
notification doesn't behave this way though.

Thanks to Venkat for debug and root casuing the issue
where only first part of the message(RDMA) was
successfully delivered but remainder payload delivery failed.
In that case, application should not be notified with
a false positive of message delivery success.

Fix this case by making sure the user gets notified only after
the full message delivery.

rds: tcp: use sock_create_lite() to create the accept socket

2017-07-21T05:44:55+00:00

commit 0933a578cd55b02dc80f219dc8f2efb17ec61c9a upstream.

There are two problems with calling sock_create_kern() from
rds_tcp_accept_one()
1. it sets up a new_sock->sk that is wasteful, because this ->sk
   is going to get replaced by inet_accept() in the subsequent ->accept()
2. The new_sock->sk is a leaked reference in sock_graft() which
   expects to find a null parent->sk

Avoid these problems by calling sock_create_lite().

RDS: Fix the atomicity for congestion map update

2017-05-03T04:19:49+00:00

commit e47db94e10447fc467777a40302f2b393e9af2fa upstream.

Two different threads with different rds sockets may be in
rds_recv_rcvbuf_delta() via receive path. If their ports
both map to the same word in the congestion map, then
using non-atomic ops to update it could cause the map to
be incorrect. Lets use atomics to avoid such an issue.

Full credit to Wengang  for
finding the issue, analysing it and also pointing out
to offending code with spin lock based fix.

RDS: fix race condition when sending a message on unbound socket

2015-11-24T22:20:09+00:00

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:

mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd

2015-11-07T01:50:42+00:00

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.
