scsi: qla2xxx: Implement ref count for SRB
The timeout handler and the done function are racing. When
qla2x00_async_iocb_timeout() starts to run it can be preempted by the
normal response path (via the firmware?). qla24xx_async_gpsc_sp_done()
releases the SRB unconditionally. When scheduling back to
qla2x00_async_iocb_timeout() qla24xx_async_abort_cmd() will access an freed
sp->qpair pointer:
qla2xxx [0000:83:00.0]-2871:0: Async-gpsc timeout - hdl=63d portid=234500 50:06:0e:80:08:77:b6:21.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004
IP: qla24xx_async_abort_cmd+0x1b/0x1c0 [qla2xxx]
Obvious solution to this is to introduce a reference counter. One reference
is taken for the normal code path (the 'good' case) and one for the timeout
path. As we always race between the normal good case and the timeout/abort
handler we need to serialize it. Also we cannot assume any order between
the handlers. Since this is slow path we can use proper synchronization via
locks.
When we are able to cancel a timer (del_timer returns 1) we know there
can't be any error handling in progress because the timeout handler hasn't
expired yet, thus we can safely decrement the refcounter by one.
If we are not able to cancel the timer, we know an abort handler is
running. We have to make sure we call sp->done() in the abort handlers
before calling kref_put(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix call timer start racing with call destruction
The rxrpc_call struct has a timer used to handle various timed events
relating to a call. This timer can get started from the packet input
routines that are run in softirq mode with just the RCU read lock held.
Unfortunately, because only the RCU read lock is held - and neither ref or
other lock is taken - the call can start getting destroyed at the same time
a packet comes in addressed to that call. This causes the timer - which
was already stopped - to get restarted. Later, the timer dispatch code may
then oops if the timer got deallocated first.
Fix this by trying to take a ref on the rxrpc_call struct and, if
successful, passing that ref along to the timer. If the timer was already
running, the ref is discarded.
The timer completion routine can then pass the ref along to the call's work
item when it queues it. If the timer or work item where already
queued/running, the extra ref is discarded. |

net: ipv4: fix route with nexthop object delete warning
FRR folks have hit a kernel warning[1] while deleting routes[2] which is
caused by trying to delete a route pointing to a nexthop id without
specifying nhid but matching on an interface. That is, a route is found
but we hit a warning while matching it. The warning is from
fib_info_nh() in include/net/nexthop.h because we run it on a fib_info
with nexthop object. The call chain is:
inet_rtm_delroute -> fib_table_delete -> fib_nh_match (called with a
nexthop fib_info and also with fc_oif set thus calling fib_info_nh on
the fib_info and triggering the warning). The fix is to not do any
matching in that branch if the fi has a nexthop object because those are
managed separately. I.e. we should match when deleting without nh spec and
should fail when deleting a nexthop route with old-style nh spec because
nexthop objects are managed separately, e.g.:
$ ip r show 1.2.3.4/32
1.2.3.4 nhid 12 via 192.168.11.2 dev dummy0
$ ip r del 1.2.3.4/32
$ ip r del 1.2.3.4/32 nhid 12
<both should work>
$ ip r del 1.2.3.4/32 dev dummy0
<should fail with ESRCH>

IB/rdmavt: add lock to call to rvt_error_qp to prevent a race condition
The documentation of the function rvt_error_qp says both r_lock and s_lock
need to be held when calling that function. It also asserts using lockdep
that both of those locks are held. However, the commit I referenced in
Fixes accidentally makes the call to rvt_error_qp in rvt_ruc_loopback no
longer covered by r_lock. This results in the lockdep assertion failing
and also possibly in a race condition. |

can: j1939: fix errant WARN_ON_ONCE in j1939_session_deactivate
The conclusion "j1939_session_deactivate() should be called with a

scenarios, j1939_session_deactivate can be called with the session
ref-count less than 2. But there is not any problem because it
will check the session active state before session putting in
j1939_session_deactivate_locked().
Here is the concurrent scenario of the problem reported by syzbot

RDMA/uverbs: Fix mmap_lock/disassociation_lock circular dependency
Commit 51976c6cd786 ("RDMA/core: Provide rdma_user_mmap_disassociate()
to disassociate mmap pages") introduced disassociation_lock to protect
new mmap registrations against uverbs_user_mmap_disassociate(), but
created an ABBA deadlock:
Thread A (mmap / fork):
mmap_lock -> disassociation_lock
Thread B (disassociate):
disassociation_lock -> mmap_lock
Fix by removing disassociation_lock entirely and using the pre-existing
hw_destroy_rwsem instead. hw_destroy_rwsem already provides the same
protection: rdma_umap_open() and ib_uverbs_mmap() both use
down_read_trylock() before registering a new VMA, so holding hw_destroy_rwsem
in uverbs_user_mmap_disassociate() is sufficient to block new registrations.
trylock is used in both mmap paths (not blocking down_read) because
mmap_lock is already held on entry, and uverbs_user_mmap_disassociate()
acquires mmap_lock internally — a blocking read would recreate the same
deadlock.
The only caller that was not taking hw_destroy_rwsem for write was
rdma_user_mmap_disassociate(). Fix it to take the rwsem per-ufile while
iterating under lists_mutex. This is safe because ib_uverbs_close()
releases hw_destroy_rwsem entirely before acquiring lists_mutex, so the
two locks are never held simultaneously.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: account for fraggap on the paged allocation path
In __ip6_append_data(), when the paged-allocation branch is taken
(MSG_MORE / NETIF_F_SG / large fraglen), alloclen and pagedlen are
computed as
alloclen = fragheaderlen + transhdrlen;
pagedlen = datalen - transhdrlen;
datalen already includes fraggap (datalen = length + fraggap). When
fraggap is non-zero, this is not the first skb and transhdrlen is zero.
The fraggap bytes carried over from the previous skb are copied just past
the fragment headers in the new skb's linear area. The linear area is
therefore undersized by fraggap bytes while pagedlen is overstated by the
same amount, and the copy writes past skb->end into the trailing
skb_shared_info.
An unprivileged user can trigger this via a UDPv6 socket using
MSG_MORE together with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES.
The bad accounting was introduced by commit 773ba4fe9104 ("ipv6:
avoid partial copy for zc"). Before commit ce650a166335 ("udp6: Fix
__ip6_append_data()'s handling of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES"), the negative
copy value caused -EINVAL to be returned. That later commit allowed
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES to proceed in this case, making the corruption
triggerable.
The non-paged branch sets alloclen to fraglen, which already accounts
for fraggap because datalen does. Bring the paged branch in line by
adding fraggap to alloclen and subtracting it from pagedlen.
After this adjustment, copy no longer collapses to -fraggap on the
paged path, so remove the stale comment describing that old arithmetic.
Since a negative copy is no longer expected for a valid MSG_SPLICE_PAGES
case, remove the MSG_SPLICE_PAGES exception from the negative copy check. |

BTRFS warning (device sdd): unable to release extent buffer 365985792 owner 3 gen 17 refs 3 flags 0x5
[CAUSE]
In that invalidate_and_check_btree_folios() we wait for the eb to finish
its read, then check if it's only held by us and the btree inode.
If not, then do a warning as it may be still held, and could cause
problems.
But there is a small window where the check can lead to false alerts:
Thread A (Read endio) | Thread B (Unmount)
----------------------------------+-------------------------------------
end_bbio_meta_read() |
| The eb has one extra ref held |
| by the reader, and has |
| EXTENT_BUFFER_READING flag set | invalidate_and_check_btree_folios()
| | |
|- clear_extent_buffer_reading() | |
| | |- wait_on_bit_io();
| | | The EXTENT_BUFFER_READING flag is
| | | cleared
| | |- if (refcount_read(eb->refs) > 2)
| | The eb is held by the read, us
| | and btree inode, thus it
| | will trigger the warning
|- free_extent_buffer() |
[FIX]
Introduce a helper, free_extent_buffer_clear_reading().
If the new parameter, @clear_reading, is set, we will hold the spinlock
at the beginning of free_extent_buffer_clear_reading() to make sure the
EXTENT_BUFFER_READING flag is cleared inside the same critical section
of decreasing refs.
Now free_extent_buffer() will just call
free_extent_buffer_clear_reading() with @clear_reading set to false, so
no behavior change.
But for end_bbio_meta_read(), it will not clear_extent_buffer_reading()
directly, but pass @clear_reading as true.
Then inside invalidate_and_check_btree_folios(), hold the refs_lock
before reading refs.
So that we eliminate the race window completely. |

kernel queue timeout as unexpected and taints the kernel.
Honour an already-wedged device even for killed queues so the expected
teardown timeout no longer trips the WARN.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-pcache: validate seg_id fields from persistent memory
cache_pos_decode(), cache_key_decode() and the last-kset branches of
cache_replay(), the writeback worker and the GC worker take a cache
segment id from the cache device metadata and index cache->segments[]
with it without checking it against cache->n_segs. That metadata is only
CRC-protected with a fixed public seed, so whoever supplies the cache
device on a table load (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) controls the id; an out-of-range
value forms a wild pcache_cache_segment pointer that is dereferenced and
written through -- an out-of-bounds read and write driven by on-disk data.
Add cache_seg_id_valid() and reject an out-of-range id at each decode
site, failing the operation with -EIO instead of indexing past the array.
Bound the id against the initialized-segment count (cache_info.n_segs)
rather than the physical device total. A forged cache_info.n_segs below
seg_num otherwise leaves segments[cache_info.n_segs..seg_num) as zeroed
structs whose data pointer is NULL, so a forged id in that window would
still be dereferenced. A later patch guarantees cache_info.n_segs <=
seg_num, and a driver-created cache sets the two equal, so valid images
are unaffected. |

uprobes/x86: Move optimized uprobe from nop5 to nop10
Andrii reported an issue with optimized uprobes [1] that can clobber
redzone area with call instruction storing return address on stack
where user code may keep temporary data without adjusting rsp.
Fixing this by moving the optimized uprobes on top of 10-bytes nop
instruction, so we can squeeze another instruction to escape the
redzone area before doing the call, like:
lea -0x80(%rsp), %rsp
call tramp
Note the lea instruction is used to adjust the rsp register without
changing the flags.
We use nop10 and following transformation to optimized instructions
above and back as suggested by Peterz [2].
Optimize path (int3_update_optimize):
1) Initial state after set_swbp() installed the uprobe:
cc 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00
From offset 0 this is INT3 followed by the tail of the original
10-byte NOP.
After a previous unoptimization bytes 5..9 may still contain the
old call instruction, which remains valid for threads already there.
2) Rewrite the LEA tail and call displacement:
cc [8d 64 24 80 e8 d0 d1 d2 d3]
From offset 0 this traps on the uprobe INT3. Bytes 1..9 are not
executable entry points while byte 0 is trapped.
3) Publish the first LEA byte:
[48] 8d 64 24 80 e8 d0 d1 d2 d3
From offset 0 this is:
lea -0x80(%rsp), %rsp
call <uprobe-trampoline>
Unoptimize path (int3_update_unoptimize):
1) Initial optimized state:
48 8d 64 24 80 e8 d0 d1 d2 d3
Same as 3) above.
2) Trap new entries before restoring the NOP bytes:
[cc] 8d 64 24 80 e8 d0 d1 d2 d3
From offset 0 this traps. A thread that had already executed the
LEA can still reach the intact CALL at offset 5.
3) Restore bytes 1..4 of the original NOP while keeping byte 0 trapped
and byte 5 as CALL.
cc [2e 0f 1f 84] e8 d0 d1 d2 d3
From offset 0 this still traps. Offset 5 is still the CALL for any
thread that was already past the first LEA byte.
4) Publish the first byte of the original NOP:
[66] 2e 0f 1f 84 e8 d0 d1 d2 d3
From offset 0 this is the restored 10-byte NOP; the CALL opcode and
displacement are now only NOP operands. Offset 5 still decodes as
CALL for a thread that was already there.
Tthere is only a single target uprobe-trampoline for the given nop10
instruction address, so the CALL instruction will not be changed across
unoptimization/optimization cycles.
Therefore, any task that is preempted at the CALL instruction is guaranteed
to observe that CALL and not anything else.
Note as explained in [2] we need to use following nop10:
PF1 PF2 ESC NOPL MOD SIB DISP32
NOP10: 0x66, 0x2e, 0x0f, 0x1f, 0x84, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 -- cs nopw 0x00000000(%rax,%rax,1)
which means we need to allow 0x2e prefix which maps to INAT_PFX_CS
attribute in is_prefix_bad function.
Also changing the uprobe syscall error when called out of uprobe
trampoline to -EPROTO, so we are able to detect the fixed kernel.
The optimized uprobe performance stays the same:
uprobe-nop : 3.129 ± 0.013M/s
uprobe-push : 3.045 ± 0.006M/s
uprobe-ret : 1.095 ± 0.004M/s
--> uprobe-nop10 : 7.170 ± 0.020M/s
uretprobe-nop : 2.143 ± 0.021M/s
uretprobe-push : 2.090 ± 0.000M/s
uretprobe-ret : 0.942 ± 0.000M/s
--> uretprobe-nop10: 3.381 ± 0.003M/s
usdt-nop : 3.245 ± 0.004M/s
--> usdt-nop10 : 7.256 ± 0.023M/s

fs/resctrl: Fix UAF from worker threads when domains are removed
The mbm_handle_overflow() and cqm_handle_limbo() workers read event counters
and may sleep while doing so. They are scheduled via delayed_work embedded in
struct rdt_l3_mon_domain. Architecture allocates and frees these domains from
CPU hotplug callbacks under cpus_write_lock(), and the workers acquire
cpus_read_lock() to keep the domain alive across their access.
A use-after-free can occur when a worker is blocked waiting for
cpus_read_lock() while the hotplug core holds cpus_write_lock(): the
architecture frees the rdt_l3_mon_domain that contains the worker's
work_struct. When the worker unblocks, the container_of() it performs on the
embedded work pointer dereferences freed memory.
Drop cpus_read_lock() from the workers and instead drain pending and in-flight
work synchronously before the architecture can free the domain. Since
architecture offlines the domain under cpus_write_lock() after it has been
unlinked from the RCU list and a grace period has elapsed, no new work can be
scheduled. The cancel only needs to wait out existing work. Drop
rdtgroup_mutex during CPU offline around cancel_delayed_work_sync() so that
a worker waiting on the mutex can complete before re-pinning the work on
a different CPU.
When offlining a CPU the architecture may iterate over resources in any order.
For example, the MBA control domain may be offlined before or after
a corresponding L3 monitor domain. Ensure that resctrl fs cancels the workers
no matter what order the architecture offlines the domains. |

cxl/features: Serialize multi-part Get/Set Feature transfers
A Get or Set Feature payload larger than the mailbox payload size is
split into several mailbox commands. mbox_mutex only serializes
individual mailbox commands and is dropped between iterations of these
loops. Nothing serializes the multi-part transfer as a whole.
cxl_get_feature() and cxl_set_feature() are reachable concurrently
from fwctl (per-fd RPCs run under a read-held registration lock) and
from the EDAC scrub/ECS/repair paths, so two transfers to the same
mailbox can interleave their parts and corrupt the device's transfer
context.
Add a per-mailbox feat_mutex and hold it across the whole transfer in
both functions. It nests outside mbox_mutex (which is taken inside
cxl_internal_send_cmd()), and is taken nowhere else, so no lock-ordering
inversion is introduced. |

nvmet: fix return status of RMI log page on allocation failure
nvmet_execute_get_log_page_rmi() leaves 'status' holding NVME_SC_SUCCESS
(set by the successful nvmet_req_find_ns() call) when the kzalloc() for
the log buffer fails. It then jumps to the out label and completes the
request with a success status, so the host is told the command succeeded
while no data was transferred.
Initialize 'status' to NVME_SC_INTERNAL, matching the smart log handler,
so an allocation failure is reported as an internal error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md: remove REQ_NOWAIT support from raid1/10/456
REQ_NOWAIT support in md personalities that can block internally is
fundamentally incomplete. While reads can avoid some blocking paths,
write requests can still encounter cases where one mirror succeeds while
another returns -EAGAIN. At that point md cannot distinguish queue
pressure from a real device failure, so it can neither record a bad
block nor safely retry the write without REQ_NOWAIT, leaving mirrors
with divergent data.
Rather than continue advertising REQ_NOWAIT support for personalities
that cannot implement it correctly, remove it from raid1, raid10 and
raid456. Keep REQ_NOWAIT for linear and raid0, which only remap bios to
their underlying devices; stacked limits will still clear the feature if
any component device lacks REQ_NOWAIT support. |
