ocfs2: fix circular locking dependency in ocfs2_init_acl()
A lockdep warning indicates a circular locking dependency between
`&oi->ip_xattr_sem` and `&journal->j_trans_barrier`:
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
is trying to acquire lock:
(&oi->ip_xattr_sem){++++}-{4:4}, at: ocfs2_init_acl+0x2fd/0x7e0
fs/ocfs2/acl.c:367
but task is already holding lock:
(&journal->j_trans_barrier){.+.+}-{4:4}, at: ocfs2_start_trans+0x3ab/0x700
fs/ocfs2/journal.c:369
The deadlock involves two code paths: Path 1 (setxattr) where
`ocfs2_xattr_set()` acquires `ip_xattr_sem` (write) and then starts a
transaction, which acquires `j_trans_barrier` (read); and Path 2
(mkdir/mknod) where `ocfs2_mknod()` starts a transaction (`j_trans_barrier`
read) and then calls `ocfs2_init_acl()`, which attempts to acquire
`ip_xattr_sem` (read) on the parent directory to retrieve the default ACL.
Because rw_semaphores are subject to writer priority, a pending writer on
`j_trans_barrier` (e.g., the journal commit thread) can cause Path 1 to
block, while Path 2 is blocked waiting for Path 1 to release
`ip_xattr_sem`.
The patch fixes the lock ordering by precomputing the ACL state before
starting the OCFS2 transaction, while preserving POSIX ACL storage
semantics and the existing inode/security initialization order. By reading
the parent directory's default ACL and preparing the new inode's ACLs
outside the transaction, `ip_xattr_sem` is always acquired before
`j_trans_barrier`.
`struct ocfs2_acl_state` encapsulates the prepared ACL state, while
`ocfs2_acl_init_prepare()` and `ocfs2_acl_init_release()` avoid code
duplication between `ocfs2_mknod()` and `ocfs2_init_security_and_acl()`.
`ocfs2_calc_xattr_init()` and `ocfs2_init_acl()` use this precomputed
state, removing internal `ip_xattr_sem` acquisition and redundant disk
reads.
Additionally, remove the `ip_xattr_sem` acquisition from
`ocfs2_xattr_set_handle()`. This function is only used while initializing a
new inode that has not yet been inserted into the inode hash or attached to
a dentry, meaning there is no risk of concurrent access and the lock is
unnecessary. |

sched/isolation: Defer freeing of cpumask memblock memory to initcall
When testing a linux-next kernel with commit 59bd1d914bb5 ("memblock:
warn when freeing reserved memory before memory map is initialized"),
the following warning was hit when there was a "nohz_full" kernel boot
parameter.
Cannot free reserved memory because of deferred initialization of the memory map
WARNING: mm/memblock.c:904 at __free_reserved_area+0xde/0xf0, CPU#0: swapper/0/0

IOW, we shouldn't free memblock allocated memory so early
in the boot process when memory map isn't fully initialized in
deferred_init_memmap().
Fix it by saving the housekeeping cpumask memblock memory to be
freed into a llist free list in housekeeping_init() and add a new
housekeeping_late_init() helper to defer the actual freeing of memblock
memory to when initcall's are being processed. The cpumask memblock
memory is treated as a llist_node with the size of a "long" type which
is also smallest cpumask size that can be allocated.
The non-atomic version of the llist APIs are used as there is no
contention.
This commit depends on the presence of commit 7c2eee9c1367 ("memblock:
don't touch memblock arrays when memblock_free() is called late")
to prevent a KASAN UAF bug report [1].

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: handle nogenerate/noverify properly in fs-integrity
Check the BIP_CHECK flags before generating or verifying PI information,
otherwise this can be incorrectly called for non-PI metadata and
cause generation of incorrect metadata and crashed in the verification
handler.
The new behavior matches that of the block layer auto-generated
metadata. |

powerpc/irq: Fix missing r2 clobber in PCREL inline assembly
In CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PCREL mode, r2 is no longer reserved for the TOC
pointer and is available as a caller-saved register [0].
Both call_do_irq() and call_do_softirq() use inline assembly to call
functions with stack switching, but fail to list r2 in their clobber
lists. This causes the compiler to assume r2 is preserved across these
calls, leading to register corruption when the called functions
(__do_irq and __do_softirq) clobber r2.
As a result of this kernel crash during interrupt handling is seen and
the kernel fails to boot:
BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on write at 0xc000000404697638
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000000181ec
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
NIP [c0000000000181ec] __do_IRQ+0x6c/0xc0
With older GCC, the compiler would conservatively allocate
callee-saved registers (like r31) for values spanning function calls,
accidentally avoiding the bug:
<__do_IRQ>:
00 00 00 60 nop
a6 02 08 7c mflr r0

2a f9 aa 7f stdx r29,r10,r31
With newer GCC 14, the compiler uses r2 for such values, exposing the
missing clobber specification:
<__do_IRQ>:
00 00 00 60 nop
a6 02 08 7c mflr r0

Fix this by adding r2 to the clobber list for both call_do_irq() and
call_do_softirq() when CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PCREL is enabled.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
When xive_init_ipis() fails (e.g. irq_domain_alloc_irqs() fails),
the error path frees the global xive_ipis array. However,
xive_smp_probe() previously ignored this failure and proceeded to
call xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which dereferences the already-freed
xive_ipis pointer -- a use-after-free.
Now that xive_smp_probe() returns int (previous patch), propagate
the error from xive_init_ipis() and xive_setup_cpu_ipi() through
xive_smp_probe(). Check the return value in both pnv_smp_probe()
and pSeries_smp_probe() so that IPI setup is aborted cleanly on
failure, avoiding the use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/efa: Fix PBL chunk length computation
On register MR, when creating the PBL, if it's an indirect PBL we create
a chunk list to hold the PBL pages pointers. Each chunk is 4KB in size
and can hold 510 addresses (EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK) and has a 12-byte
control buffer at the end of it holding the next chunk's pointer and its
length.
If the PBL number of pages is a multiple of EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK, the
calculated last chunk length is wrongly computed as 0, even though that
chunk is fully populated with 510 real page pointers. This wrong length
is used both to DMA map the chunk and is propagated to the device,
causing the device to see the chunk as empty and reject the memory
registration.
Fix the calculation so it will be performed only if the number of pages
isn't a multiple of EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK, if it is, its already handled in
the above loop correctly.
Also prevent out-of-bounds reach in the chunks array in such scenario. |

PCI/pwrctrl: tc9563: Fix parsing the integrated Ethernet MAC Endpoint node
DSP3 has an integrated Ethernet MAC Endpoint which has its own set of
config registers for configuring settings such as ASPM. The Endpoint device
has two physical functions and those two functions share the same settings.
Parse the Endpoint node under DSP3 instead of parsing both functions. The
existing parsing logic also has one OOB issue as parsing both functions
will result in accessing past the tc9563_pwrctrl->cfg array. |

remoteproc: qcom_wcnss: Fix handling the lack of PD regulators in v3
The changes introduced to handle single power domain platforms have
swapped the info pointer increment from num_pd_vregs to num_pds, which
would shift the info pointer past the end of the array for pronto-v3,
which does not list power domain regulators in vregs.
This showed up as a difference between GCC- and LLVM-compiled kernels
on SDM632 devices, where only with LLVM one would get the
"regulator request with no identifier" error, because the out-of-bounds
memory ended up being zeroed. Fix by skipping the increment when there
are more power domains than regulators. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: bcm2835: Don't remove an unregistered GPIO chip
If the devm_pinctrl_register() function fails,
bcm2835_pinctrl_probe() calls gpiochip_remove()
before gpiochip_add_data() has registered the GPIO chip.
This means that upon failure the gpio_chip.gpiodev
is NULL resulting in a null pointer dereference
inside the gpiochip_remove() function.
Remove the unnecessary function call to gpiochip_remove().
No GPIO cleanup is required because the GPIO chip
has not yet been registered. Without this change there
is potential for a kernel panic upon registration failure |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: octeon: add missing tasklet_kill in cvm_oct_tx_shutdown
The TX cleanup tasklet can be scheduled by the watchdog IRQ handler
to execute cvm_oct_tx_do_cleanup. There can be a pending tasklet in
the queue which might run after the cvm_oct_remove() frees net_device
structures, causing a use-after-free in cvm_oct_tx_do_cleanup() as it
iterates cvm_oct_device[] which is an array of netdevice pointers.
Add tasklet_kill() after free_irq() to ensure the tasklet is no longer
scheduled or running before teardown proceeds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: master: Fix device_register() error path
When device_register() fails in i3c_master_register_new_i3c_devs(),
put_device() is called to drop the reference taken by
device_register(). That drops the last reference, so the device's
release callback i3c_device_release() runs and frees the i3c_device.
Two problems follow from that:
i3c_device_release() does WARN_ON(i3cdev->desc), so it warns because
desc->dev->desc still points back at the descriptor. Clear it before
calling put_device().
After put_device() frees the i3c_device, desc->dev is left pointing at
freed memory, so clear desc->dev as well. That prevents, for example,
i3c_master_unregister_i3c_devs() seeing desc->dev as non-NULL and
dereferencing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: restore active device pointers after failed sprout
btrfs_init_new_device() switches latest_dev and possibly s_bdev from the
seed device to the new sprout device before creating the first writable
chunks.
If chunk creation or the subsequent sprout setup fails, the error path
releases the new device without switching those pointers back.
btrfs_show_devname() can then dereference the freed latest_dev and crash.
Restore the active device pointers to the latest seed device before
removing and releasing the failed sprout device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: caiaq: Fix potential double-free at error path
The fix for caiaq driver's resource management to handle the errors
tries to release the resources in a common destructor call, but as a
sashiko review for another patch suggested, some of the audio
resources such as URBs have been already freed, and this may lead to a
double-free.
For addressing the double-free, call the common destructor function
from each place, and assure that the resource pointers get cleared. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: Intel: avs: Clean up the bus when fetching ML caps fails
snd_hdac_ext_bus_get_ml_capabilities() may fail and its return code
shall be checked and accounted for. Address the issue by updating the
error-path for avs_pci_probe().
At the same time, if the function in question succeeds but the next part
of avs_pci_probe() fails, the hlink list shall be cleaned up before
leaving the scope. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Keep refcount_acquire nullable for borrowed RCU kptrs
bpf_refcount_acquire() is fallible for a borrowed reference because the
object may have reached a zero refcount. The verifier therefore keeps
KF_RET_NULL on the return value unless the argument is an owning reference.
An RCU-protected load of a local kptr is marked MEM_ALLOC, but it only
receives NON_OWN_REF when the pointee contains a graph node. A refcounted
object without a graph node consequently looks like an owning reference
even though the loaded register has no acquired reference state. If the
program drops the last real reference while remaining in the RCU critical
section, refcount_inc_not_zero() returns NULL while the verifier treats the
result as non-NULL.
Only classify the argument as owning when it is backed by a verifier-tracked
reference. This retains the non-NULL return for pointers from bpf_obj_new(),
bpf_kptr_xchg(), or an earlier successful acquisition, while requiring a
NULL check for borrowed RCU kptrs.

net/sched: ets: clamp quantum in parse and fallback paths
ets_qdisc_change() falls back to psched_mtu() with no floor for bands
without an explicit quantum. With a crafted size table qdisc_pkt_len
reaches ~2 GiB, so a zero psched_mtu on a headerless device makes the
deficit-refill loop spin under the qdisc lock.
Move the floor into ets_quantum_parse() so explicitly configured quanta
are also clamped to [256, 1<<20], not just the fallback path.

netfilter: nfnetlink_log: cope with concurrent instance destruction
Instances are refcounted. However, only memory release happens on the

af_unix: Update last skb marker in manage_oob().
Fahad Alharbi reported that blocking recv(MSG_PEEK) could hog CPU
due to OOB skb.
In the following cases, manage_oob() skips OOB skb(s) and returns
NULL for the last recv(MSG_PEEK):
socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, sk);
1) skb -> OOB skb -> NULL
send(sk[0], "ab", 2, MSG_OOB);
recv(sk[1], buf, 0, MSG_PEEK);
2) skb -> consumed OOB skb -> NULL
send(sk[0], "ab", 2, MSG_OOB);
recv(sk[1], buf, 1, MSG_OOB);
recv(sk[1], buf, 0, MSG_PEEK);
3) consumed OOB skb -> OOB skb -> NULL
send(sk[0], "a", 1, MSG_OOB);
recv(sk[1], buf, 0, MSG_OOB);
send(sk[0], "b", 1, MSG_OOB);
recv(sk[1], buf, 1, MSG_PEEK);
Then, @copied is 0 in unix_stream_read_generic() (zero-length buffer,
or non-OOB skb is not yet consumed), and unix_stream_data_wait() is
called.
However, it returns immediately because @last is not updated in
unix_stream_read_generic(), and the thread busy-waits for a new skb.
Let's update @last in manage_oob().
For MSG_PEEK, @last is updated with the skipped OOB, and for the
non-peek case, @last matches the returned value (when !copied)
because OOB is unlinked.
Note that manage_oob() is inlined and no stack canary is added. |

Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: validate packet_len before skb_put_data
btintel_pcie_submit_rx_work() reads packet_len from rfh_hdr without
checking if it exceeds the RX buffer size. An oversized packet_len
can lead to an out-of-bounds read in skb_put_data().
Validate packet_len to ensure it is non-zero and does not exceed
BTINTEL_PCIE_BUFFER_SIZE - sizeof(*rfh_hdr), logging an error when
invalid.
This issue was reported by Claude Mythos. It can be simulated either by
using customized firmware configured to return an invalid packet_len or
by modifying rfh_hdr->packet_len in the driver before calling
btintel_pcie_submit_rx_work(). |

This can happen if vmalloc_to_page() fails, for any reason. Such can happen
if text poking races with CPA, which can possibly result in the collapsing
of page tables (or breaking of PMD hugepages). It is not a problem for most
users of vmalloc_to_page() (they solely own the vmalloc'd range) but, when
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_EXECMEM_ROX=y, various modules own a single execmem vmalloc
range, and can call set_memory_*() in parallel on it. This can happen to
race against __text_poke and cause havoc in vmalloc_to_page().
Fix it by excluding against CPA using the init_mm mmap read lock.
