commit 11bf9b86 upstream. Although the ARM vDSO is cleanly separated by code/data with the code being read-only in userspace mappings, the code page is still writable from the kernel. There have been exploits (such as http://itszn.com/blog/?p=21) that take advantage of this on x86 to go from a bad kernel write to full root. Prevent this specific exploit class on ARM as well by putting the vDSO code page in post-init read-only memory as well.

commit 018ef8dc upstream. The vDSO does not need to be writable after __init, so mark it as __ro_after_init.

commit c74ba8b3 upstream. One of the easiest ways to protect the kernel from attack is to reduce the internal attack surface exposed when a "write" flaw is available. By making as much of the kernel read-only as possible, we reduce the attack surface. Many things are written to only during __init, and never changed again. These cannot be made "const" since the compiler will do the wrong thing (we do actually need to write to them). Instead, move these items into a memory region that will be made read-only during mark_rodata_ro() which happens after all kernel __init code has finished. This introduces __ro_after_init as a way to mark such memory, and adds some documentation about the existing __read_mostly marking. This improves the security of the Linux kernel by marking formerly read-write memory regions as read-only on a fully booted up system. Based on work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler. Signed-off-by:

commit d2aa1aca upstream. It may be useful to debug writes to the readonly sections of memory, so provide a cmdline "rodata=off" to allow for this. This can be expanded in the future to support "log" and "write" modes, but that will need to be architecture-specific. This also makes KDB software breakpoints more usable, as read-only mappings can now be disabled on any kernel. Suggested-by:

commit 7f54ab5f upstream. This patch fixes a recent ABORT_TASK regression associated with commit febe562c, where a left-over target_put_sess_cmd() would still be called when __target_check_io_state() detected a command has already been completed, and explicit ABORT must be avoided. Note commit febe562c dropped the local kref_get_unless_zero() check in core_tmr_abort_task(), but did not drop this extra corresponding target_put_sess_cmd() in the failure path. So go ahead and drop this now bogus target_put_sess_cmd(), and avoid this potential use-after-free. Reported-by:

commit d825c06b upstream. When calculate_cpu_foreign_map() recalculates the cpu_foreign_map cpumask it uses the local variable temp_foreign_map without initialising it to zero. Since the calculation only ever sets bits in this cpumask any existing bits at that memory location will remain set and find their way into cpu_foreign_map too. This could potentially lead to cache operations suboptimally doing smp calls to multiple VPEs in the same core, even though the VPEs share primary caches. Therefore initialise temp_foreign_map using cpumask_clear() before use. Fixes: cccf34e9 ("MIPS: c-r4k: Fix cache flushing for MT cores") Signed-off-by:

The Lantiq SoC does not use the GIC, but supports SMP.

commit 39680f50 upstream. The exit path will do some final updates to the VM of an exiting process to inform others of the fact that the process is going away. That happens, for example, for robust futex state cleanup, but also if the parent has asked for a TID update when the process exits (we clear the child tid field in user space). However, at the time we do those final VM accesses, we've already stopped accepting signals, so the usual "stop waiting for userfaults on signal" code in fs/userfaultfd.c no longer works, and the process can become an unkillable zombie waiting for something that will never happen. To solve this, just make handle_userfault() abort any user fault handling if we're already in the exit path past the signal handling state being dead (marked by PF_EXITING). This VM special case is pretty ugly, and it is possible that we should look at finalizing signals later (or move the VM final accesses earlier). But in the meantime this is a fairly minimally intrusive fix. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit c88c5d43 upstream. The recently added OPAL API call, OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH, originally took no parameters and returned nothing. The call was updated to accept the terminal number to flush, and returned various values depending on the state of the output buffer. The prototype has been updated and its usage in the OPAL kmsg dumper has been modified to support its new behaviour as an incremental flush. Signed-off-by:

commit affddff6 upstream. On BMC machines, console output is controlled by the OPAL firmware and is only flushed when its pollers are called. When the kernel is in a panic state, it no longer calls these pollers and thus console output does not completely flush, causing some output from the panic to be lost. Output is only actually lost when the kernel is configured to not power off or reboot after panic (i.e. CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT is set to 0) since OPAL flushes the console buffer as part of its power down routines. Before this patch, however, only partial output would be printed during the timeout wait. This patch adds a new kmsg_dumper which gets called at panic time to ensure panic output is not lost. It accomplishes this by calling OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH in the OPAL API, and if that is not available, the pollers are called enough times to (hopefully) completely flush the buffer. The flushing mechanism will only affect output printed at and before the kmsg_dump call in kernel/panic.c:panic(). As such, the "end Kernel panic" message may still be truncated as follows: >Call Trace: >[c000000f1f603b00] [c0000000008e9458] dump_stack+0x90/0xbc (unreliable) >[c000000f1f603b30] [c0000000008e7e78] panic+0xf8/0x2c4 >[c000000f1f603bc0] [c000000000be4860] mount_block_root+0x288/0x33c >[c000000f1f603c80] [c000000000be4d14] prepare_namespace+0x1f4/0x254 >[c000000f1f603d00] [c000000000be43e8] kernel_init_freeable+0x318/0x350 >[c000000f1f603dc0] [c00000000000bd74] kernel_init+0x24/0x130 >[c000000f1f603e30] [c0000000000095b0] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xac >---[ end Kernel panic - not This functionality is implemented as a kmsg_dumper as it seems to be the most sensible way to introduce platform-specific functionality to the panic function.

commit f15838e9 upstream. Since binutils 2.26 BFD is doing suffix merging on STRTAB sections. But dedotify modifies the symbol names in place, which can also modify unrelated symbols with a name that matches a suffix of a dotted name. To remove the leading dot of a symbol name we can just increment the pointer into the STRTAB section instead. Backport to all stables to avoid breakage when people update their binutils - mpe.

commit 256faedc upstream. This reverts commit dbb17a21 . It turns out that commit can cause problems for systems with multiple GPUs, and causes X to hang on at least a HP Pavilion dv7 with hybrid graphics. This got noticed originally in 4.4.4, where this patch had already gotten back-ported, but 4.5-rc7 was verified to have the same problem. Alexander Deucher says: "It looks like you have a muxed system so I suspect what's happening is that one of the display is being reported as connected for both the IGP and the dGPU and then the desktop environment gets confused or there some sort problem in the detect functions since the mux is not switched to the dGPU. I don't see an easy fix unless Dave has any ideas. I'd say just revert for now" Reported-by:

commit 1ec7bae8 upstream. Public Action frames use special rules for how the BSSID field (Address 3) is set. A wildcard BSSID is used in cases where the transmitter and recipient are not members of the same BSS. As such, we need to accept Public Action frames with wildcard BSSID. Commit db8e1732 ("mac80211: ignore frames between TDLS peers when operating as AP") added a rule that drops Action frames to TDLS-peers based on an Action frame having different DA (Address 1) and BSSID (Address 3) values. This is not correct since it misses the possibility of BSSID being a wildcard BSSID in which case the Address 1 would not necessarily match. Fix this by allowing mac80211 to accept wildcard BSSID in an Action frame when in AP mode. Fixes: db8e1732 ("mac80211: ignore frames between TDLS peers when operating as AP") Signed-off-by:

commit 9acc54be upstream. Just like for CCMP we need to check that for GCMP the fragments have PNs that increment by one; the spec was updated to fix this security issue and now has the following text: The receiver shall discard MSDUs and MMPDUs whose constituent MPDU PN values are not incrementing in steps of 1. Adapt the code for CCMP to work for GCMP as well, luckily the relevant fields already alias each other so no code duplication is needed (just check the aliasing with BUILD_BUG_ON.) Signed-off-by:

commit 7a36b930 upstream. The value 5000 was put here with the addition of the timeout field to ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session. It was originally added in mac80211 to save resources for drivers like iwlwifi, which only supports a limited number of concurrent aggregation sessions. Since iwlwifi does not use minstrel_ht and other drivers don't need this, 0 is a better default - especially since there have been recent reports of aggregation setup related issues reproduced with ath9k. This should improve stability without causing any adverse effects. Acked-by:

commit 212c5a5e upstream. The change from cur_tp to the function minstrel_get_tp_avg/minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg changed the unit used for the current throughput. For example in minstrel_ht the correct conversion between them would be: mrs->cur_tp / 10 == minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg(..). This factor 10 must also be included in the calculation of minstrel_get_expected_throughput and minstrel_ht_get_expected_throughput to return values with the unit [Kbps] instead of [10Kbps]. Otherwise routing algorithms like B.A.T.M.A.N. V will make incorrect decision based on these values. Its kernel based implementation expects expected_throughput always to have the unit [Kbps] and not sometimes [10Kbps] and sometimes [Kbps]. The same requirement has iw or olsrdv2's nl80211 based statistics module which retrieve the same data via NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE.

commit fb896c44 upstream. Until this patch, when TXing non-sta the pending_frames counter wasn't increased, but it WAS decreased in iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd_single(), what makes it negative in certain conditions. This in turn caused much trouble when we need to remove the station since we won't be waiting forever until pending_frames gets 0. In certain cases, we were exhausting the station table even in BSS mode, because we had a lot of stale stations. Increase the counter also in iwl_mvm_tx_skb_non_sta() after a successful TX to avoid this outcome. Signed-off-by:

commit cb150b9d upstream. Since cfg80211 frequently takes actions from its netdev notifier call, wireless extensions messages could still be ordered badly since the wext netdev notifier, since wext is built into the kernel, runs before the cfg80211 netdev notifier. For example, the following can happen: 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> link/ether when setting the interface down causes the wext message. To also fix this, export the wireless_nlevent_flush() function and also call it from the cfg80211 notifier. Signed-off-by:
