<id>urn:sha1:a9a08845e9acbd224e4ee466f5c1275ed50054e8</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

This patch uses refcount_inc_not_zero() instead of
atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() due to absense of a _hint()
version of refcount API. If the hint() version must
be used, we might need to revisit API.

<title>Bluetooth: Avoid bt_accept_unlink() double unlinking</title>

<id>urn:sha1:27bfbc21a0c0f711fa5382de026c7c0700c9ea28</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a race condition between a thread calling bt_accept_dequeue()
and a different thread calling bt_accept_unlink(). Protection against
concurrency is implemented using sk locking. However, sk locking causes
serialisation of the bt_accept_dequeue() and bt_accept_unlink() threads.
This serialisation can cause bt_accept_dequeue() to obtain the sk from the
parent list but becomes blocked waiting for the sk lock held by the
bt_accept_unlink() thread. bt_accept_unlink() unlinks sk and this thread
releases the sk lock unblocking bt_accept_dequeue() which potentially runs
bt_accept_unlink() again on the same sk causing a crash. The attempt to
double unlink the same sk from the parent list can cause a NULL pointer
dereference crash due to bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent becoming NULL on the first
unlink, followed by the second unlink trying to execute
bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent-&gt;sk_ack_backlog-- in bt_accept_unlink() which crashes.

When sk is in the parent list, bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent will be not be NULL.
When sk is removed from the parent list, bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent is set to
NULL. Therefore, add a defensive check for bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent not being
NULL to ensure that sk is still in the parent list after the sk lock has
been taken in bt_accept_dequeue(). If bt_sk(sk)-&gt;parent is detected as
being NULL then restart the loop so that the loop variables are refreshed
to use the latest values. This is necessary as list_for_each_entry_safe()
is not thread safe so causing a risk of an infinite loop occurring as sk
could point to itself.

In addition, in bt_accept_dequeue() increase the sk reference count to
protect against early freeing of sk. Early freeing can be possible if the
bt_accept_unlink() thread calls l2cap_sock_kill() or rfcomm_sock_kill()
functions before bt_accept_dequeue() gets the sk lock.

For test purposes, the probability of failure can be increased by putting
a msleep of 1 second in bt_accept_dequeue() between getting the sk and
waiting for the sk lock. This exposes the fact that the loop
list_for_each_entry_safe(p, n, &amp;bt_sk(parent)-&gt;accept_q) is not safe from
threads that unlink sk from the list in parallel with the loop which can
cause sk to become stale within the loop.

<title>Bluetooth: Handle bt_accept_enqueue() socket atomically</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e163376220169170f3945703a600083f1792aaf8</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a small risk that bt_accept_unlink() runs concurrently with
bt_accept_enqueue() on the same socket. This scenario could potentially
lead to a NULL pointer dereference of the socket's parent member because
the socket can be on the list but the socket's parent member is not yet
updated by bt_accept_enqueue().

Therefore, add socket locking inside bt_accept_enqueue() so that the
socket is added to the list AND the parent's socket address is set in the
socket's parent member. The socket locking ensures that the socket is on
the list with a valid non-NULL parent member.

<content type='text'>
As per the comment in include/linux/net.h, the recvfrom handlers
should expect msg_name to be NULL. However, bt_sock_recvmsg()
is currently not checking it, which could lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.

The following NULL pointer dereference was produced while testing
L2CAP datagram reception. Note that the kernel is tainted due to
the r8723bs module being inserted. However, it seems the fix still
applies.
