[ Upstream commit 9f0deaa12d832f488500a5afe9b912e9b3cfc432 ]

Guard wakeups that the user can trigger, and that may end up triggering a
call back into eventfd_signal. This is in addition to the current approach
that only guards in eventfd_signal.

Rename in_eventfd_signal -&gt; in_eventfd at the same time to reflect this.

Without this there would be a deadlock in the following code using libaio:

int main()
{
	struct io_context *ctx = NULL;
	struct iocb iocb;
	struct iocb *iocbs[] = { &amp;iocb };
	int evfd;
        uint64_t val = 1;

	evfd = eventfd(0, EFD_CLOEXEC);
	assert(!io_setup(2, &amp;ctx));
	io_prep_poll(&amp;iocb, evfd, POLLIN);
	io_set_eventfd(&amp;iocb, evfd);
	assert(1 == io_submit(ctx, 1, iocbs));
        write(evfd, &amp;val, 8);
}

[ Upstream commit b6e8d40d43ae4dec00c8fea2593eeea3114b8f44 ]

With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:

	[80468.182258] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8b6648b0
	  :
	[80468.191019] RIP: 0010:dl_cpu_busy+0x30/0x2b0

Fix that by using effective_cpus instead. For cgroup v1, effective_cpus
is the same as cpus_allowed. For v2, effective_cpus is the real cpumask
to be used by tasks within the cpuset anyway.

Also update task_can_attach()'s 2nd argument name to cs_effective_cpus to
reflect the change. In addition, a check is added to task_can_attach()
to guard against the possibility that cpumask_any_and() may return a
value &gt;= nr_cpu_ids.

<title>oom_kill.c: futex: delay the OOM reaper to allow time for proper futex cleanup</title>

<id>urn:sha1:41ba681c63731872beab7bd86d8246e2ea121381</id>
<content type='text'>
commit e4a38402c36e42df28eb1a5394be87e6571fb48a upstream.

The pthread struct is allocated on PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS memory [1] which
can be targeted by the oom reaper.  This mapping is used to store the
futex robust list head; the kernel does not keep a copy of the robust
list and instead references a userspace address to maintain the
robustness during a process death.

A race can occur between exit_mm and the oom reaper that allows the oom
reaper to free the memory of the futex robust list before the exit path
has handled the futex death:

    CPU1                               CPU2
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    page_fault
    do_exit "signal"
    wake_oom_reaper
                                        oom_reaper
                                        oom_reap_task_mm (invalidates mm)
    exit_mm
    exit_mm_release
    futex_exit_release
    futex_cleanup
    exit_robust_list
    get_user (EFAULT- can't access memory)

If the get_user EFAULT's, the kernel will be unable to recover the
waiters on the robust_list, leaving userspace mutexes hung indefinitely.

Delay the OOM reaper, allowing more time for the exit path to perform
the futex cleanup.

<title>sched/tracing: Report TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT tasks as TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE</title>

[ Upstream commit 25795ef6299f07ce3838f3253a9cb34f64efcfae ]

TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT currently isn't part of TASK_REPORT, thus a task blocking
on an rtlock will appear as having a task state == 0, IOW TASK_RUNNING.

The actual state is saved in p-&gt;saved_state, but reading it after reading
p-&gt;__state has a few issues:
o that could still be TASK_RUNNING in the case of e.g. rt_spin_lock
o ttwu_state_match() might have changed that to TASK_RUNNING

As pointed out by Eric, adding TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT to TASK_REPORT implies
exposing a new state to userspace tools which way not know what to do with
them. The only information that needs to be conveyed here is that a task is
waiting on an rt_mutex, which matches TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE - there's no
need for a new state.

<title>Revert "module, async: async_synchronize_full() on module init iff async is used"</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 67d6212afda218d564890d1674bab28e8612170f ]

This reverts commit 774a1221e862b343388347bac9b318767336b20b.

We need to finish all async code before the module init sequence is
done.  In the reverted commit the PF_USED_ASYNC flag was added to mark a
thread that called async_schedule().  Then the PF_USED_ASYNC flag was
used to determine whether or not async_synchronize_full() needs to be
invoked.  This works when modprobe thread is calling async_schedule(),
but it does not work if module dispatches init code to a worker thread
which then calls async_schedule().

For example, PCI driver probing is invoked from a worker thread based on
a node where device is attached:

	if (cpu &lt; nr_cpu_ids)
		error = work_on_cpu(cpu, local_pci_probe, &amp;ddi);
	else
		error = local_pci_probe(&amp;ddi);

We end up in a situation where a worker thread gets the PF_USED_ASYNC
flag set instead of the modprobe thread.  As a result,
async_synchronize_full() is not invoked and modprobe completes without
waiting for the async code to finish.

The issue was discovered while loading the pm80xx driver:
(scsi_mod.scan=async)

modprobe pm80xx                      worker
...
  do_init_module()
  ...
    pci_call_probe()
      work_on_cpu(local_pci_probe)
                                     local_pci_probe()
                                       pm8001_pci_probe()
                                         scsi_scan_host()
                                           async_schedule()
                                           worker-&gt;flags |= PF_USED_ASYNC;
                                     ...
      &lt; return from worker &gt;
  ...
  if (current-&gt;flags &amp; PF_USED_ASYNC) &lt;--- false
  	async_synchronize_full();

Commit 21c3c5d28007 ("block: don't request module during elevator init")
fixed the deadlock issue which the reverted commit 774a1221e862
("module, async: async_synchronize_full() on module init iff async is
used") tried to fix.

Since commit 0fdff3ec6d87 ("async, kmod: warn on synchronous
request_module() from async workers") synchronous module loading from
async is not allowed.

Given that the original deadlock issue is fixed and it is no longer
allowed to call synchronous request_module() from async we can remove
PF_USED_ASYNC flag to make module init consistently invoke
async_synchronize_full() unless async module probe is requested.

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Prevent a infinite loop in the MCE recovery on return to user space,
   which was caused by a second MCE queueing work for the same page and
   thereby creating a circular work list.

 - Make kern_addr_valid() handle existing PMD entries, which are marked
   not present in the higher level page table, correctly instead of
   blindly dereferencing them.

 - Pass a valid address to sanitize_phys(). This was caused by the
   mixture of inclusive and exclusive ranges. memtype_reserve() expect
   'end' being exclusive, but sanitize_phys() wants it inclusive. This
   worked so far, but with end being the end of the physical address
   space the fail is exposed.

 - Increase the maximum supported GPIO numbers for 64bit. Newer SoCs
   exceed the previous maximum.

<id>urn:sha1:81065b35e2486c024c7aa86caed452e1f01a59d4</id>
<content type='text'>
There are two cases for machine check recovery:

1) The machine check was triggered by ring3 (application) code.
   This is the simpler case. The machine check handler simply queues
   work to be executed on return to user. That code unmaps the page
   from all users and arranges to send a SIGBUS to the task that
   triggered the poison.

2) The machine check was triggered in kernel code that is covered by
   an exception table entry. In this case the machine check handler
   still queues a work entry to unmap the page, etc. but this will
   not be called right away because the #MC handler returns to the
   fix up code address in the exception table entry.

Problems occur if the kernel triggers another machine check before the
return to user processes the first queued work item.

Specifically, the work is queued using the -&gt;mce_kill_me callback
structure in the task struct for the current thread. Attempting to queue
a second work item using this same callback results in a loop in the
linked list of work functions to call. So when the kernel does return to
user, it enters an infinite loop processing the same entry for ever.

There are some legitimate scenarios where the kernel may take a second
machine check before returning to the user.

1) Some code (e.g. futex) first tries a get_user() with page faults
   disabled. If this fails, the code retries with page faults enabled
   expecting that this will resolve the page fault.

2) Copy from user code retries a copy in byte-at-time mode to check
   whether any additional bytes can be copied.

On the other side of the fence are some bad drivers that do not check
the return value from individual get_user() calls and may access
multiple user addresses without noticing that some/all calls have
failed.

Fix by adding a counter (current-&gt;mce_count) to keep track of repeated
machine checks before task_work() is called. First machine check saves
the address information and calls task_work_add(). Subsequent machine
checks before that task_work call back is executed check that the address
is in the same page as the first machine check (since the callback will
offline exactly one page).

Expected worst case is four machine checks before moving on (e.g. one
user access with page faults disabled, then a repeat to the same address
with page faults enabled ... repeat in copy tail bytes). Just in case
there is some code that loops forever enforce a limit of 10.

Pull x86 cache flush updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A reworked version of the opt-in L1D flush mechanism.

  This is a stop gap for potential future speculation related hardware
  vulnerabilities and a mechanism for truly security paranoid
  applications.

  It allows a task to request that the L1D cache is flushed when the
  kernel switches to a different mm. This can be requested via prctl().

  Changes vs the previous versions:

   - Get rid of the software flush fallback

   - Make the handling consistent with other mitigations

   - Kill the task when it ends up on a SMT enabled core which defeats
     the purpose of L1D flushing obviously"
