wifi: mwifiex: Add missing compatible string for SD8787

uaccess: Add speculation barrier to copy_from_user()

2023-02-25T10:50:31+00:00

commit 74e19ef0ff8061ef55957c3abd71614ef0f42f47 upstream. The results of "access_ok()" can be mis-speculated. The result is that you can end speculatively: if (access_ok(from, size)) // Right here even for bad from/size combinations. On first glance, it would be ideal to just add a speculation barrier to "access_ok()" so that its results can never be mis-speculated. But there are lots of system calls just doing access_ok() via "copy_to_user()" and friends (example: fstat() and friends). Those are generally not problematic because they do not _consume_ data from userspace other than the pointer. They are also very quick and common system calls that should not be needlessly slowed down. "copy_from_user()" on the other hand uses a user-controller pointer and is frequently followed up with code that might affect caches. Take something like this: if (!copy_from_user(&kernelvar, uptr, size)) do_something_with(kernelvar); If userspace passes in an evil 'uptr' that *actually* points to a kernel addresses, and then do_something_with() has cache (or other) side-effects, it could allow userspace to infer kernel data values. Add a barrier to the common copy_from_user() code to prevent mis-speculated values which happen after the copy. Also add a stub for architectures that do not define barrier_nospec(). This makes the macro usable in generic code. Since the barrier is now usable in generic code, the x86 #ifdef in the BPF code can also go away.

alarmtimer: Prevent starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGN

2023-02-25T10:50:31+00:00

commit d125d1349abeb46945dc5e98f7824bf688266f13 upstream. syzbot reported a RCU stall which is caused by setting up an alarmtimer with a very small interval and ignoring the signal. The reproducer arms the alarm timer with a relative expiry of 8ns and an interval of 9ns. Not a problem per se, but that's an issue when the signal is ignored because then the timer is immediately rearmed because there is no way to delay that rearming to the signal delivery path. See posix_timer_fn() and commit 58229a189942 ("posix-timers: Prevent softirq starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGN") for details. The reproducer does not set SIG_IGN explicitely, but it sets up the timers signal with SIGCONT. That has the same effect as explicitely setting SIG_IGN for a signal as SIGCONT is ignored if there is no handler set and the task is not ptraced. The log clearly shows that: [pid 5102] --- SIGCONT {si_signo=SIGCONT, si_code=SI_TIMER, si_timerid=0, si_overrun=316014, si_int=0, si_ptr=NULL} --- It works because the tasks are traced and therefore the signal is queued so the tracer can see it, which delays the restart of the timer to the signal delivery path. But then the tracer is killed: [pid 5087] kill(-5102, SIGKILL ... ./strace-static-x86_64: Process 5107 detached and after it's gone the stall can be observed: syzkaller login: [ 79.439102][ C0] hrtimer: interrupt took 68471 ns [ 184.460538][ C1] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: ...

That's accurate vs. the overrun accounting, but slightly inaccurate vs. timer_gettimer(2). The comment in that function says what needs to be done and there was a fix available for the regular userspace induced SIG_IGN mechanism, but that did not work due to the implicit ignore for SIGCONT and similar signals. This needs to be worked on, but for now the only available workaround is to do exactly what posix_timer_fn() does: Increase the interval of self-rearming timers, which have their signal ignored, to at least a jiffie. Interestingly this has been fixed before via commit ff86bf0c65f1 ("alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals") already, but that fix got lost in a later rework.

random: always mix cycle counter in add_latent_entropy()

2023-02-25T10:50:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit d7bf7f3b813e3755226bcb5114ad2ac477514ebf ] add_latent_entropy() is called every time a process forks, in kernel_clone(). This in turn calls add_device_randomness() using the latent entropy global state. add_device_randomness() does two things: 2) Mixes into the input pool the latent entropy argument passed; and 1) Mixes in a cycle counter, a sort of measurement of when the event took place, the high precision bits of which are presumably difficult to predict. (2) is impossible without CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=y. But (1) is always possible. However, currently CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=n disables both (1) and (2), instead of just (2). This commit causes the CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_LATENT_ENTROPY=n case to still do (1) by passing NULL (len 0) to add_device_randomness() when add_latent_ entropy() is called.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: gen2: Turn on the rate control

[ Upstream commit 791082ec0ab843e0be07c8ce3678e4c2afd2e33d ] Re-enable the function rtl8xxxu_gen2_report_connect. It informs the firmware when connecting to a network. This makes the firmware enable the rate control, which makes the upload faster. It also informs the firmware when disconnecting from a network. In the past this made reconnecting impossible because it was sending the auth on queue 0x7 (TXDESC_QUEUE_VO) instead of queue 0x12 (TXDESC_QUEUE_MGNT): wlp0s20f0u3: send auth to 90:55:de:__:__:__ (try 1/3) wlp0s20f0u3: send auth to 90:55:de:__:__:__ (try 2/3) wlp0s20f0u3: send auth to 90:55:de:__:__:__ (try 3/3) wlp0s20f0u3: authentication with 90:55:de:__:__:__ timed out Probably the firmware disables the unnecessary TX queues when it knows it's disconnected.

nilfs2: fix underflow in second superblock position calculations

2023-02-22T11:46:07+00:00

commit 99b9402a36f0799f25feee4465bfa4b8dfa74b4d upstream. Macro NILFS_SB2_OFFSET_BYTES, which computes the position of the second superblock, underflows when the argument device size is less than 4096 bytes. Therefore, when using this macro, it is necessary to check in advance that the device size is not less than a lower limit, or at least that underflow does not occur. The current nilfs2 implementation lacks this check, causing out-of-bound block access when mounting devices smaller than 4096 bytes: I/O error, dev loop0, sector 36028797018963960 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x0 phys_seg 1 prio class 2 NILFS (loop0): unable to read secondary superblock (blocksize = 1024) In addition, when trying to resize the filesystem to a size below 4096 bytes, this underflow occurs in nilfs_resize_fs(), passing a huge number of segments to nilfs_sufile_resize(), corrupting parameters such as the number of segments in superblocks. This causes excessive loop iterations in nilfs_sufile_resize() during a subsequent resize ioctl, causing semaphore ns_segctor_sem to block for a long time and hang the writer thread: INFO: task segctord:5067 blocked for more than 143 seconds.
