scsi: ufs: core: Fix invalid probe error return value
After DME Link Startup, the error return value is set to the MIPI UniPro
GenericErrorCode which can be 0 (SUCCESS) or 1 (FAILURE). Upon failure
during driver probe, the error code 1 is propagated back to the driver
probe function which must return a negative value to indicate an error,
but 1 is not negative, so the probe is considered to be successful even
though it failed. Subsequently, removing the driver results in an oops
because it is not in a valid state.
This happens because none of the callers of ufshcd_init() expect a
non-negative error code.
Fix the return value and documentation to match actual usage. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netconsole: Acquire su_mutex before navigating configs hierarchy
There is a race between operations that iterate over the userdata
cg_children list and concurrent add/remove of userdata items through
configfs. The update_userdata() function iterates over the
nt->userdata_group.cg_children list, and count_extradata_entries() also
iterates over this same list to count nodes.
Quoting from Documentation/filesystems/configfs.rst:
> A subsystem can navigate the cg_children list and the ci_parent pointer
> to see the tree created by the subsystem. This can race with configfs'
> management of the hierarchy, so configfs uses the subsystem mutex to
> protect modifications. Whenever a subsystem wants to navigate the
> hierarchy, it must do so under the protection of the subsystem
> mutex.
Without proper locking, if a userdata item is added or removed
concurrently while these functions are iterating, the list can be
accessed in an inconsistent state. For example, the list_for_each() loop
can reach a node that is being removed from the list by list_del_init()
which sets the nodes' .next pointer to point to itself, so the loop will
never end (or reach the WARN_ON_ONCE in update_userdata() ).
Fix this by holding the configfs subsystem mutex (su_mutex) during all
operations that iterate over cg_children.
This includes:
- userdatum_value_store() which calls update_userdata() to iterate over
cg_children
- All sysdata_*_enabled_store() functions which call
count_extradata_entries() to iterate over cg_children
The su_mutex must be acquired before dynamic_netconsole_mutex to avoid
potential lock ordering issues, as configfs operations may already hold
su_mutex when calling into our code. |

It seems that we are using a mutex in a atomic context which is wrong.
Change the mutex with a spinlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
page_pool: always add GFP_NOWARN for ATOMIC allocations
Driver authors often forget to add GFP_NOWARN for page allocation
from the datapath. This is annoying to users as OOMs are a fact
of life, and we pretty much expect network Rx to hit page allocation
failures during OOM. Make page pool add GFP_NOWARN for ATOMIC allocations
by default. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: ti_am335x_tsc - fix off-by-one error in wire_order validation
The current validation 'wire_order[i] > ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins)' allows
wire_order[i] to equal ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins), which causes out-of-bounds
access when used as index in 'config_pins[wire_order[i]]'.
Since config_pins has 4 elements (indices 0-3), the valid range for
wire_order should be 0-3. Fix the off-by-one error by using >= instead
of > in the validation check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: fix use-after-free caused by uec->work
The delayed work uec->work is scheduled in gaokun_ucsi_probe()
but never properly canceled in gaokun_ucsi_remove(). This creates
use-after-free scenarios where the ucsi and gaokun_ucsi structure
are freed after ucsi_destroy() completes execution, while the
gaokun_ucsi_register_worker() might be either currently executing
or still pending in the work queue. The already-freed gaokun_ucsi
or ucsi structure may then be accessed.
Furthermore, the race window is 3 seconds, which is sufficiently
long to make this bug easily reproducible. The following is the

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: stratix10-svc: fix bug in saving controller data
Fix the incorrect usage of platform_set_drvdata and dev_set_drvdata. They
both are of the same data and overrides each other. This resulted in the
rmmod of the svc driver to fail and throw a kernel panic for kthread_stop
and fifo free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/panthor: Fix UAF on kernel BO VA nodes
If the MMU is down, panthor_vm_unmap_range() might return an error.
We expect the page table to be updated still, and if the MMU is blocked,
the rest of the GPU should be blocked too, so no risk of accessing
physical memory returned to the system (which the current code doesn't
cover for anyway).
Proceed with the rest of the cleanup instead of bailing out and leaving
the va_node inserted in the drm_mm, which leads to UAF when other
adjacent nodes are removed from the drm_mm tree. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close for split VMAs
When a VMA is split (e.g., by partial munmap or MAP_FIXED), the kernel
calls vm_ops->close on each portion. For trace buffer mappings, this
results in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while
ring_buffer_map() was only called once.
This causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls
because user_mapped is already 0, triggering a WARN_ON.
Trace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring
buffer structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page.
Fix this by adding a may_split callback that returns -EINVAL to prevent
VMA splits entirely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block, bfq: Fix division by zero error on zero wsum

platform/x86/amd/pmc: Add support for Van Gogh SoC
The ROG Xbox Ally (non-X) SoC features a similar architecture to the
Steam Deck. While the Steam Deck supports S3 (s2idle causes a crash),
this support was dropped by the Xbox Ally which only S0ix suspend.
Since the handler is missing here, this causes the device to not suspend
and the AMD GPU driver to crash while trying to resume afterwards due to
a power hang. |

scsi: qla2xxx: Clear cmds after chip reset
Commit aefed3e5548f ("scsi: qla2xxx: target: Fix offline port handling
and host reset handling") caused two problems:
1. Commands sent to FW, after chip reset got stuck and never freed as FW
is not going to respond to them anymore.
2. BUG_ON(cmd->sg_mapped) in qlt_free_cmd(). Commit 26f9ce53817a
("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix missed DMA unmap for aborted commands")
attempted to fix this, but introduced another bug under different
circumstances when two different CPUs were racing to call
qlt_unmap_sg() at the same time: BUG_ON(!valid_dma_direction(dir)) in
dma_unmap_sg_attrs().
So revert "scsi: qla2xxx: Fix missed DMA unmap for aborted commands" and
partially revert "scsi: qla2xxx: target: Fix offline port handling and
host reset handling" at __qla2x00_abort_all_cmds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing header

gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback().
Use struct_group to describe the header of the struct gs_host_frame and
check that we have at least received the header before accessing any
members of it.
To resubmit the URB, do not dereference the pointer chain
"dev->parent->hf_size_rx" but use "parent->hf_size_rx" instead. Since
"urb->context" contains "parent", it is always defined, while "dev" is not
defined if the URB it too short. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/panthor: Prevent potential UAF in group creation
This commit prevents the possibility of a use after free issue in the
GROUP_CREATE ioctl function, which arose as pointer to the group is
accessed in that ioctl function after storing it in the Xarray.
A malicious userspace can second guess the handle of a group and try
to call GROUP_DESTROY ioctl from another thread around the same time
as GROUP_CREATE ioctl.
To prevent the use after free exploit, this commit uses a mark on an
entry of group pool Xarray which is added just before returning from
the GROUP_CREATE ioctl function. The mark is checked for all ioctls
that specify the group handle and so userspace won't be abe to delete
a group that isn't marked yet.

[ 27.184958] </TASK>
It complains about acquiring a local_lock while holding a raw_spin_lock.
It means it should not allocate memory while holding a raw_spin_lock
since it is not safe for RT.
raw_spin_lock is needed because bpf_local_storage supports tracing
context. In particular for task local storage, it is easy to
get a "current" task PTR_TO_BTF_ID in tracing bpf prog.
However, task (and cgroup) local storage has already been moved to
bpf mem allocator which can be used after raw_spin_lock.
The splat is for the sk storage. For sk (and inode) storage,
it has not been moved to bpf mem allocator. Using raw_spin_lock or not,
kzalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) could theoretically be unsafe in tracing context.
However, the local storage helper requires a verifier accepted
sk pointer (PTR_TO_BTF_ID), it is hypothetical if that (mean running
a bpf prog in a kzalloc unsafe context and also able to hold a verifier
accepted sk pointer) could happen.
This patch avoids kzalloc after raw_spin_lock to silent the splat.
There is an existing kzalloc before the raw_spin_lock. At that point,
a kzalloc is very likely required because a lookup has just been done
before. Thus, this patch always does the kzalloc before acq

accel/ivpu: Fix page fault in ivpu_bo_unbind_all_bos_from_context()
Don't add BO to the vdev->bo_list in ivpu_gem_create_object().
When failure happens inside drm_gem_shmem_create(), the BO is not
fully created and ivpu_gem_bo_free() callback will not be called
causing a deleted BO to be left on the list. |

mt76: mt7615: Fix memory leak in mt7615_mcu_wtbl_sta_add()
In mt7615_mcu_wtbl_sta_add(), an skb sskb is allocated. If the
subsequent call to mt76_connac_mcu_alloc_wtbl_req() fails, the function
returns an error without freeing sskb, leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by calling dev_kfree_skb() on sskb in the error handling path
to ensure it is properly released. |

gfs2: Prevent recursive memory reclaim
Function new_inode() returns a new inode with inode->i_mapping->gfp_mask
set to GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE. This value includes the __GFP_FS flag, so
allocations in that address space can recurse into filesystem memory
reclaim. We don't want that to happen because it can consume a
significant amount of stack memory.
Worse than that is that it can also deadlock: for example, in several
places, gfs2_unstuff_dinode() is called inside filesystem transactions.
This calls filemap_grab_folio(), which can allocate a new folio, which
can trigger memory reclaim. If memory reclaim recurses into the
filesystem and starts another transaction, a deadlock will ensue.
To fix these kinds of problems, prevent memory reclaim from recursing
into filesystem code by making sure that the gfp_mask of inode address
spaces doesn't include __GFP_FS.
The "meta" and resource group address spaces were already using GFP_NOFS
as their gfp_mask (which doesn't include __GFP_FS). The default value
of GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE is less restrictive than GFP_NOFS, though. To
avoid being overly limiting, use the default value and only knock off
the __GFP_FS flag. I'm not sure if this will actually make a
difference, but it also shouldn't hurt.
This patch is loosely based on commit ad22c7a043c2 ("xfs: prevent stack
overflows from page cache allocation").
Fixes xfstest generic/273. |

btrfs: fix double free of qgroup record after failure to add delayed ref head
In the previous code it was possible to incur into a double kfree()
scenario when calling add_delayed_ref_head(). This could happen if the
record was reported to already exist in the
btrfs_qgroup_trace_extent_nolock() call, but then there was an error
later on add_delayed_ref_head(). In this case, since
add_delayed_ref_head() returned an error, the caller went to free the
record. Since add_delayed_ref_head() couldn't set this kfree'd pointer
to NULL, then kfree() would have acted on a non-NULL 'record' object
which was pointing to memory already freed by the callee.
The problem comes from the fact that the responsibility to kfree the
object is on both the caller and the callee at the same time. Hence, the
fix for this is to shift the ownership of the 'qrecord' object out of
the add_delayed_ref_head(). That is, we will never attempt to kfree()
the given object inside of this function, and will expect the caller to
act on the 'qrecord' object on its own. The only exception where the
'qrecord' object cannot be kfree'd is if it was inserted into the
tracing logic, for which we already have the 'qrecord_inserted_ret'
boolean to account for this. Hence, the caller has to kfree the object
only if add_delayed_ref_head() reports not to have inserted it on the
tracing logic.
As a side-effect of the above, we must guarantee that
'qrecord_inserted_ret' is properly initialized at the start of the
function, not at the end, and then set when an actual insert
happens. This way we avoid 'qrecord_inserted_ret' having an invalid
value on an early exit.
The documentation from the add_delayed_ref_head() has also been updated
to reflect on the exact ownership of the 'qrecord' object. |
