[ Upstream commit 455f05ecd2b219e9a216050796d30c830d9bc393 ]

syzbot reported that we reinitialize an active delayed
work in vsock_stream_connect():

	ODEBUG: init active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint:
	delayed_work_timer_fn+0x0/0x90 kernel/workqueue.c:1414
	WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 11518 at lib/debugobjects.c:329
	debug_print_object+0x16a/0x210 lib/debugobjects.c:326

The pattern is apparently wrong, we should only initialize
the dealyed work once and could repeatly schedule it. So we
have to move out the initializations to allocation side.
And to avoid confusion, we can split the shared dwork
into two, instead of re-using the same one.

[ Upstream commit 0dcb82254d65f72333aa50ad626d1e9665ad093b ]

llc_sap_put() decreases the refcnt before deleting sap
from the global list. Therefore, there is a chance
llc_sap_find() could find a sap with zero refcnt
in this global list.

Close this race condition by checking if refcnt is zero
or not in llc_sap_find(), if it is zero then it is being
removed so we can just treat it as gone.

commit 785a19f9d1dd8a4ab2d0633be4656653bd3de1fc upstream.

The following kernel panic was observed on ARM64 platform due to a stale
TLB entry.

 1. ioremap with 4K size, a valid pte page table is set.
 2. iounmap it, its pte entry is set to 0.
 3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, update its pmd entry with
    a new value.
 4. CPU may hit an exception because the old pmd entry is still in TLB,
    which leads to a kernel panic.

Commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table") has addressed this panic by falling to pte mappings in the above
case on ARM64.

To support pmd mappings in all cases, TLB purge needs to be performed
in this case on ARM64.

Add a new arg, 'addr', to pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page()
so that TLB purge can be added later in seprate patches.

<title>crypto: vmac - separate tfm and request context</title>

<id>urn:sha1:55c689bd3d1c7c5ccddea1aac75ed67e5af8464a</id>
<content type='text'>
commit bb29648102335586e9a66289a1d98a0cb392b6e5 upstream.

syzbot reported a crash in vmac_final() when multiple threads
concurrently use the same "vmac(aes)" transform through AF_ALG.  The bug
is pretty fundamental: the VMAC template doesn't separate per-request
state from per-tfm (per-key) state like the other hash algorithms do,
but rather stores it all in the tfm context.  That's wrong.

Also, vmac_final() incorrectly zeroes most of the state including the
derived keys and cached pseudorandom pad.  Therefore, only the first
VMAC invocation with a given key calculates the correct digest.

Fix these bugs by splitting the per-tfm state from the per-request state
and using the proper init/update/final sequencing for requests.

Reproducer for the crash:

    #include &lt;linux/if_alg.h&gt;
    #include &lt;sys/socket.h&gt;
    #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;

    int main()
    {
            int fd;
            struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
                    .salg_type = "hash",
                    .salg_name = "vmac(aes)",
            };
            char buf[256] = { 0 };

            fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
            bind(fd, (void *)&amp;addr, sizeof(addr));
            setsockopt(fd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buf, 16);
            fork();
            fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL);
            for (;;)
                    write(fd, buf, 256);
    }

The immediate cause of the crash is that vmac_ctx_t.partial_size exceeds
VMAC_NHBYTES, causing vmac_final() to memset() a negative length.

commit bc2d8d262cba5736332cbc866acb11b1c5748aa9 upstream

Josh reported that the late SMT evaluation in cpu_smt_state_init() sets
cpu_smt_control to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in case that 'nosmt' was supplied
on the kernel command line as it cannot differentiate between SMT disabled
by BIOS and SMT soft disable via 'nosmt'. That wreckages the state and
makes the sysfs interface unusable.

Rework this so that during bringup of the non boot CPUs the availability of
SMT is determined in cpu_smt_allowed(). If a newly booted CPU is not a
'primary' thread then set the local cpu_smt_available marker and evaluate
this explicitely right after the initial SMP bringup has finished.

SMT evaulation on x86 is a trainwreck as the firmware has all the
information _before_ booting the kernel, but there is no interface to query
it.

commit 6c26fcd2abfe0a56bbd95271fce02df2896cfd24 upstream

pfn_modify_allowed() and arch_has_pfn_modify_check() are outside of the
!__ASSEMBLY__ section in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h, which confuses
assembler on archs that don't have __HAVE_ARCH_PFN_MODIFY_ALLOWED (e.g.
ia64) and breaks build:

    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: Assembler messages:
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:538: Error: Unknown opcode `static inline bool pfn_modify_allowed(unsigned long pfn,pgprot_t prot)'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:540: Error: Unknown opcode `return true'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:543: Error: Unknown opcode `static inline bool arch_has_pfn_modify_check(void)'
    include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:545: Error: Unknown opcode `return false'
    arch/ia64/kernel/entry.S:69: Error: `mov' does not fit into bundle

Move those two static inlines into the !__ASSEMBLY__ section so that they
don't confuse the asm build pass.

commit fee0aede6f4739c87179eca76136f83210953b86 upstream

The CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED state is set (if the processor does not support
SMT) when the sysfs SMT control file is initialized.

That was fine so far as this was only required to make the output of the
control file correct and to prevent writes in that case.

With the upcoming l1tf command line parameter, this needs to be set up
before the L1TF mitigation selection and command line parsing happens.

<content type='text'>
commit 05736e4ac13c08a4a9b1ef2de26dd31a32cbee57 upstream

Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT.

The command line options are:

 'nosmt':	Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them

 'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration
 		via MP table and ACPI/MADT.

The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write):

 'on':		 SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined
 'off':		 SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated
 		 cannot be onlined
 'forceoff':	 SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control
 		 file are rejected.
 'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU

The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This
can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime.

The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to
'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime.

When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online
secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread
later on are rejected.

When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary
threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -&gt; 'on' transition does not
automatically online the secondary threads.

When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as
setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to
the control file are rejected.

When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file
are rejected.

<content type='text'>
commit 377eeaa8e11fe815b1d07c81c4a0e2843a8c15eb upstream

For the L1TF workaround its necessary to limit the swap file size to below
MAX_PA/2, so that the higher bits of the swap offset inverted never point
to valid memory.

Add a mechanism for the architecture to override the swap file size check
in swapfile.c and add a x86 specific max swapfile check function that
enforces that limit.

The check is only enabled if the CPU is vulnerable to L1TF.

In VMs with 42bit MAX_PA the typical limit is 2TB now, on a native system
with 46bit PA it is 32TB. The limit is only per individual swap file, so
it's always possible to exceed these limits with multiple swap files or
partitions.
