commit 14d4ac19d1895397532eec407433c5d74d9da53b upstream.

In flush_write_buffer, &amp;p-&gt;frag_sem is acquired and then the loaded store
function is called, which, here, is target_core_item_dbroot_store().  This
function called filp_open(), following which these functions were called
(in reverse order), according to the call trace:

  down_read
  __configfs_open_file
  do_dentry_open
  vfs_open
  do_open
  path_openat
  do_filp_open
  file_open_name
  filp_open
  target_core_item_dbroot_store
  flush_write_buffer
  configfs_write_iter

target_core_item_dbroot_store() tries to validate the new file path by
trying to open the file path provided to it; however, in this case, the bug
report shows:

db_root: not a directory: /sys/kernel/config/target/dbroot

indicating that the same configfs file was tried to be opened, on which it
is currently working on. Thus, it is trying to acquire frag_sem semaphore
of the same file of which it already holds the semaphore obtained in
flush_write_buffer(), leading to acquiring the semaphore in a nested manner
and a possibility of recursive locking.

Fix this by modifying target_core_item_dbroot_store() to use kern_path()
instead of filp_open() to avoid opening the file using filesystem-specific
function __configfs_open_file(), and further modifying it to make this fix
compatible.

<id>urn:sha1:b2d6b1d443009ed4da2d69f5423ab38e5780505a</id>
<content type='text'>
The code in sbp_make_tpg() limits "tpgt" to UINT_MAX but the data type of
"tpg-&gt;tport_tpgt" is u16. This causes a type truncation issue.

When a user creates a TPG via configfs mkdir, for example:

    mkdir /sys/kernel/config/target/sbp/&lt;wwn&gt;/tpgt_70000

The value 70000 passes the "tpgt &gt; UINT_MAX" check since 70000 is far less
than 4294967295. However, when assigned to the u16 field tpg-&gt;tport_tpgt,
the value is silently truncated to 4464 (70000 &amp; 0xFFFF). This causes the
value the user specified to differ from what is actually stored, leading to
confusion and potential unexpected behavior.

Fix this by changing the type of "tpgt" to u16 and using kstrtou16() which
will properly reject values outside the u16 range.

<id>urn:sha1:84dc6037390b8607c5551047d3970336cb51ba9a</id>
<content type='text'>
In iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
holding the sess-&gt;session_usage_lock. Similar to the connection usage count
logic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session release
path) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately.

This creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt to
execute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already been
deallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free.

To resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete()
to ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before the
waiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation.

<content type='text'>
In iscsit_dec_conn_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
holding the conn-&gt;conn_usage_lock. As soon as complete() is invoked, the
waiter (such as iscsit_close_connection()) may wake up and proceed to free
the iscsit_conn structure.

If the waiter frees the memory before the current thread reaches
spin_unlock_bh(), it results in a KASAN slab-use-after-free as the function
attempts to release a lock within the already-freed connection structure.

Fix this by releasing the spinlock before calling complete().

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list.

     Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending
     twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.

   - Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
     queue.

     Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle,
     but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy.

     Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
     reordering.

   - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.

   - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already
     did for Rx skbs).

   - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.

   - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is
     sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines.

   - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for
     packets.

   - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock
     pressure, improving the Rx performance.

   - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.

   - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
     (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor
     fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using
     cgroups.

   - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.

   - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of
     RTT.

   - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid
     unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the
     connection RTT is low.

   - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.

   - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.

   - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC
     5837).

   - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).

   - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.

   - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.

   - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.

   - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
     from Kees.

   - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.

   - Some preparations for slimming down struct page.

   - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.

   - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
     computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

  Driver API:

   - Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.

   - Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as
     defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for
     100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.

   - Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in
     zl3073x).

   - Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads
     IPsec and performs RSS.

   - Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the
     default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.

   - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.

   - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame
     duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.

   - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.

  Device drivers:

   - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.

   - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series.

   - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control,
     and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET
     operations for PHY timestamping.

   - Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for
     reading the Rx ring count.

   - Significant refactoring efforts in the STMMAC driver, which
     supports Synopsys turn-key MAC IP integrated into a ton of SoCs.

Pull cred guard updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains substantial credential infrastructure improvements
  adding guard-based credential management that simplifies code and
  eliminates manual reference counting in many subsystems.

  Features:

   - Kernel Credential Guards

     Add with_kernel_creds() and scoped_with_kernel_creds() guards that
     allow using the kernel credentials without allocating and copying
     them. This was requested by Linus after seeing repeated
     prepare_kernel_creds() calls that duplicate the kernel credentials
     only to drop them again later.

     The new guards completely avoid the allocation and never expose the
     temporary variable to hold the kernel credentials anywhere in
     callers.

   - Generic Credential Guards

     Add scoped_with_creds() guards for the common override_creds() and
     revert_creds() pattern. This builds on earlier work that made
     override_creds()/revert_creds() completely reference count free.

   - Prepare Credential Guards

     Add prepare credential guards for the more complex pattern of
     preparing a new set of credentials and overriding the current
     credentials with them:
      - prepare_creds()
      - modify new creds
      - override_creds()
      - revert_creds()
      - put_cred()

  Cleanups:

   - Make init_cred static since it should not be directly accessed

   - Add kernel_cred() helper to properly access the kernel credentials

   - Fix scoped_class() macro that was introduced two cycles ago

   - coredump: split out do_coredump() from vfs_coredump() for cleaner
     credential handling

   - coredump: move revert_cred() before coredump_cleanup()

   - coredump: mark struct mm_struct as const

   - coredump: pass struct linux_binfmt as const

   - sev-dev: use guard for path"

<title>scsi: target: sbp: Remove KMSG_COMPONENT macro</title>

<id>urn:sha1:971bb08704e227a7815fef31713f25c6b25e2599</id>
<content type='text'>
The KMSG_COMPONENT macro is a leftover of the s390 specific "kernel
message catalog" from 2008 [1] which never made it upstream.

The macro was added to s390 code to allow for an out-of-tree patch which
used this to generate unique message ids. Also this out-of-tree doesn't
exist anymore.

The pattern of how the KMSG_COMPONENT is used was partially also used
for non s390 specific code, for whatever reasons.

Remove the macro in order to get rid of a pointless indirection.

<title>scsi: target: Reset t_task_cdb pointer in error case</title>

If allocation of cmd-&gt;t_task_cdb fails, it remains NULL but is later
dereferenced in the 'err' path.

In case of error, reset NULL t_task_cdb value to point at the default
fixed-size buffer.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
