<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 6b22d433aa13f68e3cd9534ca9a5f4277bfa01c2 ]

handshake_complete() declares status as unsigned int and
tls_handshake_done() negates that value (-status) before handing
it to the TLS consumer. Consumers match on negative errno
constants -- xs_tls_handshake_done() has

	switch (status) {
	case 0:
	case -EACCES:
	case -ETIMEDOUT:
		lower_transport-&gt;xprt_err = status;
		break;
	default:
		lower_transport-&gt;xprt_err = -EACCES;
	}

so the API as designed expects callers to pass positive errno
values that the tlshd shim then negates.

Three internal callers in handshake_nl_accept_doit(), the
net-exit drain, and a kunit test follow kernel convention and
pass negative errnos -- -EIO, -ETIMEDOUT, -ETIMEDOUT. The
implicit conversion to unsigned int turns -ETIMEDOUT into
0xFFFFFF92; the subsequent -status in tls_handshake_done()
wraps back to 110, the consumer's switch falls through, and
the xprt reports -EACCES on what should be -ETIMEDOUT or -EIO.

Fix the API rather than the call sites. The natural kernel
convention is negative errno in, negative errno out. Change
handshake_complete() and hp_done to take int status, drop the
negation in tls_handshake_done(), and negate once in
handshake_nl_done_doit() where status arrives from the wire
as an unsigned netlink attribute. The three internal callers
were already correct under that convention and need no change.

At the same wire boundary, declare MAX_ERRNO as the netlink
policy upper bound for HANDSHAKE_A_DONE_STATUS. Attribute
validation rejects out-of-range values before
handshake_nl_done_doit() runs, and negating a bounded u32 there
stays within int range -- closing the UBSAN-visible signed-
integer overflow that an unconstrained u32 would invoke.

[ Upstream commit cc993e0927ec8bd98ea33377ada03295fcda0f24 ]

nvmet_tcp_state_change(), a socket callback that runs in BH context,
can reach handshake_req_cancel() via nvmet_tcp_schedule_release_queue()
and tls_handshake_cancel().  handshake_req_cancel() acquires
hn-&gt;hn_lock with plain spin_lock().  If a process-context thread on
the same CPU holds hn-&gt;hn_lock when a softirq invokes the cancel path,
the lock attempt deadlocks.  This is the only caller that invokes
tls_handshake_cancel() from BH context; every other consumer calls it
from process context.

Deferring the cancel to process context in the NVMe target is not
straightforward: nvmet_tcp_schedule_release_queue() must call
tls_handshake_cancel() atomically with its state transition to
DISCONNECTING.  If the cancel were deferred, the handshake completion
callback could fire in the window before the cancel runs, observe the
unexpected state, and return without dropping its kref on the queue.
Reworking that interlock is considerably more invasive than hardening
the handshake lock.  Convert all hn-&gt;hn_lock acquisitions from
spin_lock/spin_unlock to spin_lock_bh/spin_unlock_bh so the lock is
never taken with softirqs enabled.

commit 6af2a01d65f89e73c1cbb9267f8880d83a88cee4 upstream.

handshake_req_submit() replaces sk-&gt;sk_destruct but never restores it when
submission fails before the request is hashed. handshake_sk_destruct() then
returns early and the original destructor never runs, leaking the socket.
Restore sk_destruct on the error path.

[ Upstream commit 15564bd67e2975002f2a8e9defee33e321d3183f ]

When a handshake request is cancelled it is removed from the
handshake_net-&gt;hn_requests list, but it is still present in the
handshake_rhashtbl until it is destroyed.

If a second cancellation request arrives for the same handshake request,
then remove_pending() will return false... and assuming
HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED isn't set in req-&gt;hr_flags, we'll continue
processing through the out_true label, where we put another reference on
the sock and a refcount underflow occurs.

This can happen for example if a handshake times out - particularly if
the SUNRPC client sends the AUTH_TLS probe to the server but doesn't
follow it up with the ClientHello due to a problem with tlshd.  When the
timeout is hit on the server, the server will send a FIN, which triggers
a cancellation request via xs_reset_transport().  When the timeout is
hit on the client, another cancellation request happens via
xs_tls_handshake_sync().

Add a test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED) in the pending cancel
path so duplicate cancels can be detected.

<content type='text'>
In tls_handshake_accept(), a netlink message is allocated using
genlmsg_new(). In the error handling path, genlmsg_cancel() is called
to cancel the message construction, but the message itself is not freed.
This leads to a memory leak.

Fix this by calling nlmsg_free() in the error path after genlmsg_cancel()
to release the allocated memory.
