drop_monitor: Require 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group

2023-12-13T15:46:18+00:00

commit e03781879a0d524ce3126678d50a80484a513c4b upstream. The "NET_DM" generic netlink family notifies drop locations over the "events" multicast group. This is problematic since by default generic netlink allows non-root users to listen to these notifications. Fix by adding a new field to the generic netlink multicast group structure that when set prevents non-root users or root without the 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' capability (in the user namespace owning the network namespace) from joining the group. Set this field for the "events" group. Use 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' rather than 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' because of the nature of the information that is shared over this group. Note that the capability check in this case will always be performed against the initial user namespace since the family is not netns aware and only operates in the initial network namespace. A new field is added to the structure rather than using the "flags" field because the existing field uses uAPI flags and it is inappropriate to add a new uAPI flag for an internal kernel check. In net-next we can rework the "flags" field to use internal flags and fold the new field into it. But for now, in order to reduce the amount of changes, add a new field. Since the information can only be consumed by root, mark the control plane operations that start and stop the tracing as root-only using the 'GENL_ADMIN_PERM' flag. Tested using [1].

psample: Require 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' when joining "packets" group

2023-12-13T15:46:17+00:00

commit 44ec98ea5ea9cfecd31a5c4cc124703cb5442832 upstream. The "psample" generic netlink family notifies sampled packets over the "packets" multicast group. This is problematic since by default generic netlink allows non-root users to listen to these notifications. Fix by marking the group with the 'GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM' flag.

genetlink: add CAP_NET_ADMIN test for multicast bind

2023-12-13T15:46:17+00:00

This is a partial backport of upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp: avoid lock_fast usage in accept path"). It is only a partial backport because the patch in the link below was erroneously squash-merged into upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp: avoid lock_fast usage in accept path"). Below is the original patch description from Florian Westphal: " genetlink sets NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV for its netlink socket so anyone can subscribe to multicast messages. rtnetlink doesn't allow this unconditionally, rtnetlink_bind() restricts bind requests to CAP_NET_ADMIN for a few groups. This allows to set GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag on genl mcast groups to mandate CAP_NET_ADMIN. This will be used by the upcoming mptcp netlink event facility which exposes the token (mptcp connection identifier) to userspace.

netlink: don't call ->netlink_bind with table lock held

2023-12-13T15:46:17+00:00

From: Florian Westphal commit f2764bd4f6a8dffaec3e220728385d9756b3c2cb upstream. When I added support to allow generic netlink multicast groups to be restricted to subscribers with CAP_NET_ADMIN I was unaware that a genl_bind implementation already existed in the past. It was reverted due to ABBA deadlock: 1. ->netlink_bind gets called with the table lock held. 2. genetlink bind callback is invoked, it grabs the genl lock. But when a new genl subsystem is (un)registered, these two locks are taken in reverse order. One solution would be to revert again and add a comment in genl referring 1e82a62fec613, "genetlink: remove genl_bind"). This would need a second change in mptcp to not expose the raw token value anymore, e.g. by hashing the token with a secret key so userspace can still associate subflow events with the correct mptcp connection. However, Paolo Abeni reminded me to double-check why the netlink table is locked in the first place. I can't find one. netlink_bind() is already called without this lock when userspace joins a group via NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP setsockopt. Same holds for the netlink_unbind operation. Digging through the history, commit f773608026ee1 ("netlink: access nlk groups safely in netlink bind and getname") expanded the lock scope. commit 3a20773beeeeade ("net: netlink: cap max groups which will be considered in netlink_bind()") ... removed the nlk->ngroups access that the lock scope extension was all about. Reduce the lock scope again and always call ->netlink_bind without the table lock. The Fixes tag should be vs. the patch mentioned in the link below, but that one got squash-merged into the patch that came earlier in the series.

nilfs2: fix missing error check for sb_set_blocksize call

2023-12-13T15:46:17+00:00

commit d61d0ab573649789bf9eb909c89a1a193b2e3d10 upstream. When mounting a filesystem image with a block size larger than the page size, nilfs2 repeatedly outputs long error messages with stack traces to the kernel log, such as the following: getblk(): invalid block size 8192 requested logical block size: 512 ... Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x92/0xd4 dump_stack+0xd/0x10 bdev_getblk+0x33a/0x354 __breadahead+0x11/0x80 nilfs_search_super_root+0xe2/0x704 [nilfs2] load_nilfs+0x72/0x504 [nilfs2] nilfs_mount+0x30f/0x518 [nilfs2] legacy_get_tree+0x1b/0x40 vfs_get_tree+0x18/0xc4 path_mount+0x786/0xa88 __ia32_sys_mount+0x147/0x1a8 __do_fast_syscall_32+0x56/0xc8 do_fast_syscall_32+0x29/0x58 do_SYSENTER_32+0x15/0x18 entry_SYSENTER_32+0x98/0xf1 ... This overloads the system logger. And to make matters worse, it sometimes crashes the kernel with a memory access violation. This is because the return value of the sb_set_blocksize() call, which should be checked for errors, is not checked. The latter issue is due to out-of-buffer memory being accessed based on a large block size that caused sb_set_blocksize() to fail for buffers read with the initial minimum block size that remained unupdated in the super_block structure. Since nilfs2 mkfs tool does not accept block sizes larger than the system page size, this has been overlooked. However, it is possible to create this situation by intentionally modifying the tool or by passing a filesystem image created on a system with a large page size to a system with a smaller page size and mounting it. Fix this issue by inserting the expected error handling for the call to sb_set_blocksize().

KVM: s390/mm: Properly reset no-dat

commit 27072b8e18a73ffeffb1c140939023915a35134b upstream. When the CMMA state needs to be reset, the no-dat bit also needs to be reset. Failure to do so could cause issues in the guest, since the guest expects the bit to be cleared after a reset.

serial: sc16is7xx: address RX timeout interrupt errata

2023-12-13T15:46:17+00:00

commit 08ce9a1b72e38cf44c300a44ac5858533eb3c860 upstream. This device has a silicon bug that makes it report a timeout interrupt but no data in the FIFO. The datasheet states the following in the errata section 18.1.4: "If the host reads the receive FIFO at the same time as a time-out interrupt condition happens, the host might read 0xCC (time-out) in the Interrupt Indication Register (IIR), but bit 0 of the Line Status Register (LSR) is not set (means there is no data in the receive FIFO)." The errata description seems to indicate it concerns only polled mode of operation when reading bit 0 of the LSR register. However, tests have shown and NXP has confirmed that the RXLVL register also yields 0 when the bug is triggered, and hence the IRQ driven implementation in this driver is equally affected. This bug has hit us on production units and when it does, sc16is7xx_irq() would spin forever because sc16is7xx_port_irq() keeps seeing an interrupt in the IIR register that is not cleared because the driver does not call into sc16is7xx_handle_rx() unless the RXLVL register reports at least one byte in the FIFO. Fix this by always reading one byte from the FIFO when this condition is detected in order to clear the interrupt. This approach was confirmed to be correct by NXP through their support channels.
