[ Upstream commit 10379171f346e6f61d30d9949500a8de4336444a ]

The list_first_entry() macro never returns NULL.  If the list is
empty then it returns an invalid pointer.  Use list_first_entry_or_null()
to check if the list is empty.

[ Upstream commit dcd21b609d4abc7303f8683bce4f35d78d7d6830 ]

The Linux client assumes that all filehandles are non-volatile for
renames within the same directory (otherwise sillyrename cannot work).
However, the existence of the Linux 'subtree_check' export option has
meant that nfs_rename() has always assumed it needs to flush writes
before attempting to rename.

Since NFSv4 does allow the client to query whether or not the server
exhibits this behaviour, and since knfsd does actually set the
appropriate flag when 'subtree_check' is enabled on an export, it
should be OK to optimise away the write flushing behaviour in the cases
where it is clearly not needed.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 6b9785dc8b13d9fb75ceec8cf4ea7ec3f3b1edbc ]

Currently, different NFS clients can share the same DS connections, even
when they are in different net namespaces. If a containerized client
creates a DS connection, another container can find and use it. When the
first client exits, the connection will close which can lead to stalls
in other clients.

Add a net namespace pointer to struct nfs4_pnfs_ds, and compare those
value to the caller's netns in _data_server_lookup_locked() when
searching for a nfs4_pnfs_ds to match.

<title>coredump: hand a pidfd to the usermode coredump helper</title>

<id>urn:sha1:510cf09f2dedfc44ec8501793e825f8d12e80809</id>
<content type='text'>
commit b5325b2a270fcaf7b2a9a0f23d422ca8a5a8bdea upstream.

Give userspace a way to instruct the kernel to install a pidfd into the
usermode helper process. This makes coredump handling a lot more
reliable for userspace. In parallel with this commit we already have
systemd adding support for this in [1].

We create a pidfs file for the coredumping process when we process the
corename pattern. When the usermode helper process is forked we then
install the pidfs file as file descriptor three into the usermode
helpers file descriptor table so it's available to the exec'd program.

Since usermode helpers are either children of the system_unbound_wq
workqueue or kthreadd we know that the file descriptor table is empty
and can thus always use three as the file descriptor number.

Note, that we'll install a pidfd for the thread-group leader even if a
subthread is calling do_coredump(). We know that task linkage hasn't
been removed due to delay_group_leader() and even if this @current isn't
the actual thread-group leader we know that the thread-group leader
cannot be reaped until @current has exited.

[brauner: This is a backport for the v6.12 series. The upstream kernel
has changed pidfs_alloc_file() to set O_RDWR implicitly instead of
forcing callers to set it. Let's minimize the churn and just let the
coredump umh handler raise O_RDWR.]

commit 95c5f43181fe9c1b5e5a4bd3281c857a5259991f upstream.

The replace_fd() helper returns the file descriptor number on success
and a negative error code on failure. The current error handling in
umh_pipe_setup() only works because the file descriptor that is replaced
is zero but that's pretty volatile. Explicitly check for a negative
error code.

If there is no stream data in file, v_len is zero.
So, If position(*pos) is zero, stream write will fail
due to stream write position validation check.

<title>nilfs2: fix deadlock warnings caused by lock dependency in init_nilfs()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fedd2a1443600c8a91c2c75940ad1527bae1e649</id>
<content type='text'>
commit fb881cd7604536b17a1927fb0533f9a6982ffcc5 upstream.

After commit c0e473a0d226 ("block: fix race between set_blocksize and read
paths") was merged, set_blocksize() called by sb_set_blocksize() now locks
the inode of the backing device file.  As a result of this change, syzbot
started reporting deadlock warnings due to a circular dependency involving
the semaphore "ns_sem" of the nilfs object, the inode lock of the backing
device file, and the locks that this inode lock is transitively dependent
on.

This is caused by a new lock dependency added by the above change, since
init_nilfs() calls sb_set_blocksize() in the lock section of "ns_sem".
However, these warnings are false positives because init_nilfs() is called
in the early stage of the mount operation and the filesystem has not yet
started.

The reason why "ns_sem" is locked in init_nilfs() was to avoid a race
condition in nilfs_fill_super() caused by sharing a nilfs object among
multiple filesystem instances (super block structures) in the early
implementation.  However, nilfs objects and super block structures have
long ago become one-to-one, and there is no longer any need to use the
semaphore there.

So, fix this issue by removing the use of the semaphore "ns_sem" in
init_nilfs().

commit e48f9d849bfdec276eebf782a84fd4dfbe1c14c0 upstream.

Multiple pointers in struct cifs_search_info (ntwrk_buf_start,
srch_entries_start, and last_entry) point to the same allocated buffer.
However, when freeing this buffer, only ntwrk_buf_start was set to NULL,
while the other pointers remained pointing to freed memory.

This is defensive programming to prevent potential issues with stale
pointers. While the active UAF vulnerability is fixed by the previous
patch, this change ensures consistent pointer state and more robust error
handling.

Fix this by ensuring the return code is checked before using pointers
from the srch_inf.

[ Upstream commit 250cf3693060a5f803c5f1ddc082bb06b16112a9 ]

... or we risk stealing final mntput from sync umount - raising mnt_count
after umount(2) has verified that victim is not busy, but before it
has set MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT; in that case __legitimize_mnt() doesn't see
that it's safe to quietly undo mnt_count increment and leaves dropping
the reference to caller, where it'll be a full-blown mntput().

Check under mount_lock is needed; leaving the current one done before
taking that makes no sense - it's nowhere near common enough to bother
with.
