drm/amdgpu: fix pci device refcount leak
As comment of pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() says, it returns
a pci device with refcount increment, when finish using it,
the caller must decrement the reference count by calling
pci_dev_put().
So before returning from amdgpu_device_resume|suspend_display_audio(),
pci_dev_put() is called to avoid refcount leak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid migrating empty section
It reports a bug from device w/ zufs:
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Inconsistent segment (173822) type [1, 0] in SSA and SIT
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Stopped filesystem due to reason: 4
Thread A Thread B
- f2fs_expand_inode_data
- f2fs_allocate_pinning_section
- f2fs_gc_range
- do_garbage_collect w/ segno #x
- writepage
- f2fs_allocate_data_block
- new_curseg
- allocate segno #x
The root cause is: fallocate on pinning file may race w/ block allocation
as above, result in do_garbage_collect() from fallocate() may migrate
segment which is just allocated by a log, the log will update segment type
in its in-memory structure, however GC will get segment type from on-disk
SSA block, once segment type changes by log, we can detect such
inconsistency, then shutdown filesystem.
In this case, on-disk SSA shows type of segno #173822 is 1 (SUM_TYPE_NODE),
however segno #173822 was just allocated as data type segment, so in-memory
SIT shows type of segno #173822 is 0 (SUM_TYPE_DATA).
Change as below to fix this issue:
- check whether current section is empty before gc
- add sanity checks on do_garbage_collect() to avoid any race case, result
in migrating segment used by log.
- btw, it fixes misc issue in printed logs: "SSA and SIT" -> "SIT and SSA". |

drm/amd/display: Add NULL pointer checks in dc_stream cursor attribute functions
The function dc_stream_set_cursor_attributes() currently dereferences
the `stream` pointer and nested members `stream->ctx->dc->current_state`
without checking for NULL.
All callers of these functions, such as in
`dcn30_apply_idle_power_optimizations()` and
`amdgpu_dm_plane_handle_cursor_update()`, already perform NULL checks
before calling these functions.
Fixes below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_stream.c:336 dc_stream_program_cursor_attributes()
error: we previously assumed 'stream' could be null (see line 334)
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_stream.c
327 bool dc_stream_program_cursor_attributes(
328 struct dc_stream_state *stream,
329 const struct dc_cursor_attributes *attributes)
330 {
331 struct dc *dc;
332 bool reset_idle_optimizations = false;
333
334 dc = stream ? stream->ctx->dc : NULL;
^^^^^^
The old code assumed stream could be NULL.
335
--> 336 if (dc_stream_set_cursor_attributes(stream, attributes)) {
^^^^^^
The refactor added an unchecked dereference.
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_stream.c
313 bool dc_stream_set_cursor_attributes(
314 struct dc_stream_state *stream,
315 const struct dc_cursor_attributes *attributes)
316 {
317 bool result = false;
318
319 if (dc_stream_check_cursor_attributes(stream, stream->ctx->dc->current_state, attributes)) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Here.
This function used to check for if stream as NULL and return false at
the start. Probably we should add that back. |

SELinux: Context system_u:object_r:pssp_rsyslog_log_t:s0:c0 is
not valid (left unmapped).
It was found that within a critical section of spin_lock_irqsave in
sidtab_context_to_sid(), convert_context() (hooked by
sidtab_convert_params.func) might cause the process to sleep via
allocating memory with GFP_KERNEL, which is problematic.
As Ondrej pointed out [1], convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func
has another caller sidtab_convert_tree(), which is okay with GFP_KERNEL.
Therefore, fix this problem by adding a gfp_t argument for
convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func and pass GFP_KERNEL/_ATOMIC
properly in individual callers.

wifi: ath9k: avoid uninit memory read in ath9k_htc_rx_msg()
syzbot is reporting uninit value at ath9k_htc_rx_msg() [1], for
ioctl(USB_RAW_IOCTL_EP_WRITE) can call ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() with
pkt_len = 0 but ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() uses
__dev_alloc_skb(pkt_len + 32, GFP_ATOMIC) based on an assumption that
pkt_len is valid. As a result, ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() allocates skb
with uninitialized memory and ath9k_htc_rx_msg() is reading from
uninitialized memory.
Since bytes accessed by ath9k_htc_rx_msg() is not known until
ath9k_htc_rx_msg() is called, it would be difficult to check minimal valid
pkt_len at "if (pkt_len > 2 * MAX_RX_BUF_SIZE) {" line in
ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream().
We have two choices. One is to workaround by adding __GFP_ZERO so that
ath9k_htc_rx_msg() sees 0 if pkt_len is invalid. The other is to let
ath9k_htc_rx_msg() validate pkt_len before accessing. This patch chose
the latter.
Note that I'm not sure threshold condition is correct, for I can't find
details on possible packet length used by this protocol. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/apic: Don't disable x2APIC if locked
The APIC supports two modes, legacy APIC (or xAPIC), and Extended APIC
(or x2APIC). X2APIC mode is mostly compatible with legacy APIC, but
it disables the memory-mapped APIC interface in favor of one that uses
MSRs. The APIC mode is controlled by the EXT bit in the APIC MSR.
The MMIO/xAPIC interface has some problems, most notably the APIC LEAK
[1]. This bug allows an attacker to use the APIC MMIO interface to
extract data from the SGX enclave.
Introduce support for a new feature that will allow the BIOS to lock
the APIC in x2APIC mode. If the APIC is locked in x2APIC mode and the
kernel tries to disable the APIC or revert to legacy APIC mode a GP
fault will occur.
Introduce support for a new MSR (IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS) and handle
the new locked mode when the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED bit is set by
preventing the kernel from trying to disable the x2APIC.
On platforms with the IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS MSR, if SGX or TDX are
enabled the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED will be set by the BIOS. If
legacy APIC is required, then it SGX and TDX need to be disabled in the
BIOS.

dmaengine: qcom-adm: fix wrong calling convention for prep_slave_sg
The calling convention for pre_slave_sg is to return NULL on error and
provide an error log to the system. Qcom-adm instead provide error
pointer when an error occur. This indirectly cause kernel panic for
example for the nandc driver that checks only if the pointer returned by
device_prep_slave_sg is not NULL. Returning an error pointer makes nandc
think the device_prep_slave_sg function correctly completed and makes
the kernel panics later in the code.
While nandc is the one that makes the kernel crash, it was pointed out
that the real problem is qcom-adm not following calling convention for
that function.
To fix this, drop returning error pointer and return NULL with an error
log. |

It is because the error handling in vidtv_bridge_dvb_init() is wrong.
First, vidtv_bridge_dmx(dev)_init() will clean themselves when fail, but
goto fail_dmx(_dev): calls release functions again, which causes
use-after-free.
Also, in fail_fe, fail_tuner_probe and fail_demod_probe, j = i will cause
out-of-bound when i finished its loop (i == NUM_FE). And the loop
releasing is wrong, although now NUM_FE is 1 so it won't cause problem.
Fix this by correctly releasing everything. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: silence the warning when evicting inode with dioread_nolock
When evicting an inode with default dioread_nolock, it could be raced by
the unwritten extents converting kworker after writeback some new
allocated dirty blocks. It convert unwritten extents to written, the
extents could be merged to upper level and free extent blocks, so it
could mark the inode dirty again even this inode has been marked
I_FREEING. But the inode->i_io_list check and warning in
ext4_evict_inode() missing this corner case. Fortunately,
ext4_evict_inode() will wait all extents converting finished before this
check, so it will not lead to inode use-after-free problem, every thing
is OK besides this warning. The WARN_ON_ONCE was originally designed
for finding inode use-after-free issues in advance, but if we add
current dioread_nolock case in, it will become not quite useful, so fix
this warning by just remove this check.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: fix memory leak of urbs in ath9k_hif_usb_dealloc_tx_urbs()
Syzkaller reports a long-known leak of urbs in
ath9k_hif_usb_dealloc_tx_urbs().
The cause of the leak is that usb_get_urb() is called but usb_free_urb()
(or usb_put_urb()) is not called inside usb_kill_urb() as urb->dev or
urb->ep fields have not been initialized and usb_kill_urb() returns
immediately.
The patch removes trying to kill urbs located in hif_dev->tx.tx_buf
because hif_dev->tx.tx_buf is not supposed to contain urbs which are in
pending state (the pending urbs are stored in hif_dev->tx.tx_pending).
The tx.tx_lock is acquired so there should not be any changes in the list.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller. |

This is because the refcount is not correct in configfs_make_dirent().
For normal stage, the refcount is changing as:
configfs_register_subsystem()
configfs_create_dir()
configfs_make_dirent()
configfs_new_dirent() # set s_count = 1
dentry->d_fsdata = configfs_get(sd); # s_count = 2
...
configfs_unregister_subsystem()
configfs_remove_dir()
remove_dir()
configfs_remove_dirent() # s_count = 1
dput() ...
*dentry_unlink_inode()*
configfs_d_iput() # s_count = 0, release
However, if we failed in configfs_create():
configfs_register_subsystem()
configfs_create_dir()
configfs_make_dirent() # s_count = 2
...
configfs_create() # fail
->out_remove:
configfs_remove_dirent(dentry)
configfs_put(sd) # s_count = 1
return PTR_ERR(inode);
There is no inode in the error path, so the configfs_d_iput() is lost
and makes sd and fragment memory leaked.
To fix this, when we failed in configfs_create(), manually call
configfs_put(sd) to keep the refcount correct. |
