btrfs: qgroup: fix race between quota disable and quota rescan ioctl
There's a race between a task disabling quotas and another running the
rescan ioctl that can result in a use-after-free of qgroup records from
the fs_info->qgroup_tree rbtree.
This happens as follows:
1) Task A enters btrfs_ioctl_quota_rescan() -> btrfs_qgroup_rescan();
2) Task B enters btrfs_quota_disable() and calls
btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion(), which does nothing because at that
point fs_info->qgroup_rescan_running is false (it wasn't set yet by
task A);
3) Task B calls btrfs_free_qgroup_config() which starts freeing qgroups
from fs_info->qgroup_tree without taking the lock fs_info->qgroup_lock;
4) Task A enters qgroup_rescan_zero_tracking() which starts iterating
the fs_info->qgroup_tree tree while holding fs_info->qgroup_lock,
but task B is freeing qgroup records from that tree without holding
the lock, resulting in a use-after-free.
Fix this by taking fs_info->qgroup_lock at btrfs_free_qgroup_config().
Also at btrfs_qgroup_rescan() don't start the rescan worker if quotas
were already disabled. |

fs: Prevent file descriptor table allocations exceeding INT_MAX
When sysctl_nr_open is set to a very high value (for example, 1073741816
as set by systemd), processes attempting to use file descriptors near
the limit can trigger massive memory allocation attempts that exceed
INT_MAX, resulting in a WARNING in mm/slub.c:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 44 at mm/slub.c:5027 __kvmalloc_node_noprof+0x21a/0x288
This happens because kvmalloc_array() and kvmalloc() check if the
requested size exceeds INT_MAX and emit a warning when the allocation is
not flagged with __GFP_NOWARN.
Specifically, when nr_open is set to 1073741816 (0x3ffffff8) and a
process calls dup2(oldfd, 1073741880), the kernel attempts to allocate:
- File descriptor array: 1073741880 * 8 bytes = 8,589,935,040 bytes
- Multiple bitmaps: ~400MB
- Total allocation size: > 8GB (exceeding INT_MAX = 2,147,483,647)
Reproducer:
1. Set /proc/sys/fs/nr_open to 1073741816:
# echo 1073741816 > /proc/sys/fs/nr_open
2. Run a program that uses a high file descriptor:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/resource.h>
int main() {
struct rlimit rlim = {1073741824, 1073741824};
setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rlim);
dup2(2, 1073741880); // Triggers the warning
return 0;
}
3. Observe WARNING in dmesg at mm/slub.c:5027
systemd commit a8b627a introduced automatic bumping of fs.nr_open to the
maximum possible value. The rationale was that systems with memory
control groups (memcg) no longer need separate file descriptor limits
since memory is properly accounted. However, this change overlooked
that:
1. The kernel's allocation functions still enforce INT_MAX as a maximum
size regardless of memcg accounting
2. Programs and tests that legitimately test file descriptor limits can
inadvertently trigger massive allocations
3. The resulting allocations (>8GB) are impractical and will always fail
systemd's algorithm starts with INT_MAX and keeps halving the value
until the kernel accepts it. On most systems, this results in nr_open
being set to 1073741816 (0x3ffffff8), which is just under 1GB of file
descriptors.
While processes rarely use file descriptors near this limit in normal
operation, certain selftests (like
tools/testing/selftests/core/unshare_test.c) and programs that test file
descriptor limits can trigger this issue.
Fix this by adding a check in alloc_fdtable() to ensure the requested
allocation size does not exceed INT_MAX. This causes the operation to
fail with -EMFILE instead of triggering a kernel warning and avoids the
impractical >8GB memory allocation request. |

ARM: rockchip: fix kernel hang during smp initialization
In order to bring up secondary CPUs main CPU write trampoline
code to SRAM. The trampoline code is written while secondary
CPUs are powered on (at least that true for RK3188 CPU).
Sometimes that leads to kernel hang. Probably because secondary
CPU execute trampoline code while kernel doesn't expect.
The patch moves SRAM initialization step to the point where all
secondary CPUs are powered down.
That fixes rarely hangs on RK3188:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rcu: Protect ->defer_qs_iw_pending from data race
On kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=y, when rcu_read_unlock() is
invoked within an interrupts-disabled region of code [1], it will invoke
rcu_read_unlock_special(), which uses an irq-work handler to force the
system to notice when the RCU read-side critical section actually ends.
That end won't happen until interrupts are enabled at the soonest.
In some kernels, such as those booted with rcutree.use_softirq=y, the
irq-work handler is used unconditionally.
The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->defer_qs_iw_pending field is
updated by the irq-work handler and is both read and updated by
rcu_read_unlock_special(). This resulted in the following KCSAN splat:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is that irq-work handlers run with interrupts enabled, which
means that rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() could be interrupted,
and that interrupt handler might contain an RCU read-side critical
section, which might invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(). In the strict
KCSAN mode of operation used by RCU, this constitutes a data race on
the ->defer_qs_iw_pending field.
This commit therefore disables interrupts across the portion of the
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() that updates the ->defer_qs_iw_pending
field. This suffices because this handler is not a fast path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: truncate good inode pages when hard link is 0
The fileset value of the inode copy from the disk by the reproducer is
AGGR_RESERVED_I. When executing evict, its hard link number is 0, so its
inode pages are not truncated. This causes the bugon to be triggered when
executing clear_inode() because nrpages is greater than 0. |

RDMA: hfi1: fix possible divide-by-zero in find_hw_thread_mask()
The function divides number of online CPUs by num_core_siblings, and
later checks the divider by zero. This implies a possibility to get
and divide-by-zero runtime error. Fix it by moving the check prior to
division. This also helps to save one indentation level. |

mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup in __kmemleak_do_cleanup()
A soft lockup warning was observed on a relative small system x86-64
system with 16 GB of memory when running a debug kernel with kmemleak
enabled.
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 33s! [kworker/8:1:134]
The test system was running a workload with hot unplug happening in
parallel. Then kemleak decided to disable itself due to its inability to
allocate more kmemleak objects. The debug kernel has its
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE set to 40,000.
The soft lockup happened in kmemleak_do_cleanup() when the existing
kmemleak objects were being removed and deleted one-by-one in a loop via a
workqueue. In this particular case, there are at least 40,000 objects
that need to be processed and given the slowness of a debug kernel and the
fact that a raw_spinlock has to be acquired and released in
__delete_object(), it could take a while to properly handle all these
objects.
As kmemleak has been disabled in this case, the object removal and
deletion process can be further optimized as locking isn't really needed.
However, it is probably not worth the effort to optimize for such an edge
case that should rarely happen. So the simple solution is to call
cond_resched() at periodic interval in the iteration loop to avoid soft
lockup. |

mm/kmemleak: avoid deadlock by moving pr_warn() outside kmemleak_lock
When netpoll is enabled, calling pr_warn_once() while holding
kmemleak_lock in mem_pool_alloc() can cause a deadlock due to lock
inversion with the netconsole subsystem. This occurs because
pr_warn_once() may trigger netpoll, which eventually leads to
__alloc_skb() and back into kmemleak code, attempting to reacquire
kmemleak_lock.
This is the path for the deadlock.
mem_pool_alloc()
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
-> pr_warn_once()
-> netconsole subsystem
-> netpoll
-> __alloc_skb
-> __create_object
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
Fix this by setting a flag and issuing the pr_warn_once() after
kmemleak_lock is released. |

serial: 8250: fix panic due to PSLVERR
When the PSLVERR_RESP_EN parameter is set to 1, the device generates
an error response if an attempt is made to read an empty RBR (Receive
Buffer Register) while the FIFO is enabled.
In serial8250_do_startup(), calling serial_port_out(port, UART_LCR,
UART_LCR_WLEN8) triggers dw8250_check_lcr(), which invokes
dw8250_force_idle() and serial8250_clear_and_reinit_fifos(). The latter
function enables the FIFO via serial_out(p, UART_FCR, p->fcr).
Execution proceeds to the serial_port_in(port, UART_RX).
This satisfies the PSLVERR trigger condition.
When another CPU (e.g., using printk()) is accessing the UART (UART
is busy), the current CPU fails the check (value & ~UART_LCR_SPAR) ==
(lcr & ~UART_LCR_SPAR) in dw8250_check_lcr(), causing it to enter
dw8250_force_idle().
Put serial_port_out(port, UART_LCR, UART_LCR_WLEN8) under the port->lock
to fix this issue.

iio: imu: bno055: fix OOB access of hw_xlate array
Fix a potential out-of-bounds array access of the hw_xlate array in
bno055.c.
In bno055_get_regmask(), hw_xlate was iterated over the length of the
vals array instead of the length of the hw_xlate array. In the case of
bno055_gyr_scale, the vals array is larger than the hw_xlate array,
so this could result in an out-of-bounds access. In practice, this
shouldn't happen though because a match should always be found which
breaks out of the for loop before it iterates beyond the end of the
hw_xlate array.
By adding a new hw_xlate_len field to the bno055_sysfs_attr, we can be
sure we are iterating over the correct length. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read access
Because of the way read access support is implemented, read access
interruptions are only triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. The
kernel executes at privilege level 0, so __get_user() never triggers
a read access interruption (code 26). Thus, it is currently possible
for user code to access a read protected address via a system call.
Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER)
and setting __gu_err to -EFAULT (-14) if access isn't allowed.
Note the cmpiclr instruction does a 32-bit compare because COND macro
doesn't work inside asm. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Revise gateway LWS calls to probe user read access
We use load and stbys,e instructions to trigger memory reference
interruptions without writing to memory. Because of the way read
access support is implemented, read access interruptions are only
triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. The kernel and gateway
page execute at privilege level 0, so this code never triggers
a read access interruption. Thus, it is currently possible for
user code to execute a LWS compare and swap operation at an
address that is read protected at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER).
Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 and
branching to lws_fault if access isn't allowed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: rainshadow-cec: fix TOCTOU race condition in rain_interrupt()
In the interrupt handler rain_interrupt(), the buffer full check on
rain->buf_len is performed before acquiring rain->buf_lock. This
creates a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition, as
rain->buf_len is concurrently accessed and modified in the work
handler rain_irq_work_handler() under the same lock.
Multiple interrupt invocations can race, with each reading buf_len
before it becomes full and then proceeding. This can lead to both
interrupts attempting to write to the buffer, incrementing buf_len
beyond its capacity (DATA_SIZE) and causing a buffer overflow.
Fix this bug by moving the spin_lock() to before the buffer full
check. This ensures that the check and the subsequent buffer modification
are performed atomically, preventing the race condition. An corresponding
spin_unlock() is added to the overflow path to correctly release the
lock.
This possible bug was found by an experimental static analysis tool
developed by our team. |

media: venus: protect against spurious interrupts during probe
Make sure the interrupt handler is initialized before the interrupt is
registered.
If the IRQ is registered before hfi_create(), it's possible that an
interrupt fires before the handler setup is complete, leading to a NULL
dereference.
This error condition has been observed during system boot on Rb3Gen2. |

drm/amdkfd: Destroy KFD debugfs after destroy KFD wq
Since KFD proc content was moved to kernel debugfs, we can't destroy KFD
debugfs before kfd_process_destroy_wq. Move kfd_process_destroy_wq prior
to kfd_debugfs_fini to fix a kernel NULL pointer problem. It happens
when /sys/kernel/debug/kfd was already destroyed in kfd_debugfs_fini but
kfd_process_destroy_wq calls kfd_debugfs_remove_process. This line
debugfs_remove_recursive(entry->proc_dentry);
tries to remove /sys/kernel/debug/kfd/proc/<pid> while
/sys/kernel/debug/kfd is already gone. It hangs the kernel by kernel
NULL pointer.

In the mpage_read_folio() function, the stack variable 'map_bh' is
passed to ntfs_get_block_vbo(). Once unlock_buffer() unlocks and
wait_on_buffer() returns to continue processing, the stack variable
is likely to be reclaimed. Consequently, during the end_buffer_read_sync()
process, calling put_bh() may result in stack overrun.
If the bh is not allocated on the stack, it belongs to a folio. Freeing
a buffer head which belongs to a folio is done by drop_buffers() which
will fail to free buffers which are still locked. So it is safe to call
put_bh() before __end_buffer_read_notouch(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: Also allocate and copy hash for reading of filter files
Currently the reader of set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace just adds
the pointer to the global tracer hash to its iterator. Unlike the writer
that allocates a copy of the hash, the reader keeps the pointer to the
filter hashes. This is problematic because this pointer is static across
function calls that release the locks that can update the global tracer
hashes. This can cause UAF and similar bugs.
Allocate and copy the hash for reading the filter files like it is done
for the writers. This not only fixes UAF bugs, but also makes the code a
bit simpler as it doesn't have to differentiate when to free the
iterator's hash between writers and readers. |
