ppp, slip: Validate VJ compression slot parameters completely

2016-01-31T19:25:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4ab42d78e37a294ac7bc56901d563c642e03c4ae ] Currently slhc_init() treats out-of-range values of rslots and tslots as equivalent to 0, except that if tslots is too large it will dereference a null pointer (CVE-2015-7799). Add a range-check at the top of the function and make it return an ERR_PTR() on error instead of NULL. Change the callers accordingly. Compile-tested only.

mISDN: fix OOM condition for sending queued I-Frames

2015-10-22T14:23:19+00:00

The old code did not check the return value of skb_clone(). The extra skb_clone() is not needed at all, if using skb_realloc_headroom() instead, which gives us a private copy with enough headroom as well. We need to requeue the original skb if the call failed, because we cannot inform upper layers about the data loss. Restructure the code to minimise rollback effort if it happens. This fix kernel bug #86091 Thanks to Insu Yun to remind me on this issue. Signed-off-by: Karsten Keil Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ISDN: fix OOM condition for sending queued I-Frames

2015-10-22T14:23:19+00:00

The skb_clone() return value was not checked and the skb_realloc_headroom() usage was wrong, the old skb was not freed. It turned out, that the skb_clone is not needed at all, the skb_realloc_headroom() will create a private copy with enough headroom and the original SKB can be used for the ACK queue. We need to requeue the original skb if the call failed, since the upper layer cannot be informed about memory shortage. Thanks to Insu Yun to remind me on this issue.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages(). Summary: - Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will arrive in a later kernel. - Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4. - Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping. - Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as cacheable to improve performance. - Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal 'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (34 commits) libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by default libnvdimm, pmem: 'struct page' for pmem libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructure x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB add devm_memremap_pages mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory" mm: move __phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h dax: drop size parameter to ->direct_access() nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB nvdimm: change to use generic kvfree() pmem, dax: have direct_access use __pmem annotation dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem() pmem, x86: clean up conditional pmem includes pmem: remove layer when calling arch_has_wmb_pmem() pmem, x86: move x86 PMEM API to new pmem.h header libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option pmem: switch to devm_ allocations devres: add devm_memremap libnvdimm, btt: write and validate parent_uuid ...

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Another merge window, another set of networking changes. I've heard rumblings that the lightweight tunnels infrastructure has been voted networking change of the year. But what do I know? 1) Add conntrack support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer. 2) Initial support for VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding), which allows the segmentation of routing paths without using multiple devices. There are some semantic kinks to work out still, but this is a reasonably strong foundation. From David Ahern. 3) Remove spinlock fro act_bpf fast path, from Alexei Starovoitov. 4) Ignore route nexthops with a link down state in ipv6, just like ipv4. From Andy Gospodarek. 5) Remove spinlock from fast path of act_gact and act_mirred, from Eric Dumazet. 6) Document the DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli. 7) Add netconsole support to bcmgenet, systemport, and DSA. Also from Florian Fainelli. 8) Add Mellanox Switch Driver and core infrastructure, from Jiri Pirko. 9) Add support for "light weight tunnels", which allow for encapsulation and decapsulation without bearing the overhead of a full blown netdevice. From Thomas Graf, Jiri Benc, and a cast of others. 10) Add Identifier Locator Addressing support for ipv6, from Tom Herbert. 11) Support fragmented SKBs in iwlwifi, from Johannes Berg. 12) Allow perf PMUs to be accessed from eBPF programs, from Kaixu Xia. 13) Add BQL support to 3c59x driver, from Loganaden Velvindron. 14) Stop using a zero TX queue length to mean that a device shouldn't have a qdisc attached, use an explicit flag instead. From Phil Sutter. 15) Use generic geneve netdevice infrastructure in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar. 16) Add infrastructure to avoid re-forwarding a packet in software that was already forwarded by a hardware switch. From Scott Feldman. 17) Allow AF_PACKET fanout function to be implemented in a bpf program, from Willem de Bruijn" * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1458 commits) netfilter: nf_conntrack: make nf_ct_zone_dflt built-in netfilter: nf_dup{4, 6}: fix build error when nf_conntrack disabled net: fec: clear receive interrupts before processing a packet ipv6: fix exthdrs offload registration in out_rt path xen-netback: add support for multicast control bgmac: Update fixed_phy_register() sock, diag: fix panic in sock_diag_put_filterinfo flow_dissector: Use 'const' where possible. flow_dissector: Fix function argument ordering dependency ixgbe: Resolve "initialized field overwritten" warnings ixgbe: Remove bimodal SR-IOV disabling ixgbe: Add support for reporting 2.5G link speed ixgbe: fix bounds checking in ixgbe_setup_tc for 82598 ixgbe: support for ethtool set_rxfh ixgbe: Avoid needless PHY access on copper phys ixgbe: cleanup to use cached mask value ixgbe: Remove second instance of lan_id variable ixgbe: use kzalloc for allocating one thing flow: Move __get_hash_from_flowi{4,6} into flow_dissector.c ixgbe: Remove unused PCI bus types ...
