If apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails in alloc_workqueue(), it will call put_pwq()
which invoke a work queue to call pwq_unbound_release_workfn() and use the 'wq'.
The 'wq' allocated in alloc_workqueue() will be freed in error path when
apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails. So it will lead a UAF.

                                              pwq_unbound_release_workfn() &lt;- trigger uaf here

If apply_wqattrs_prepare() fails, the new pwq are not linked, it doesn't
hold any reference to the 'wq', 'wq' is invalid to access in the worker,
so add check pwq if linked to fix this.

<title>tracing: Fix bug in rb_per_cpu_empty() that might cause deadloop.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7db12bae1a239d872d17e128fd5271da789bf99c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 67f0d6d9883c13174669f88adac4f0ee656cc16a upstream.

The "rb_per_cpu_empty()" misinterpret the condition (as not-empty) when
"head_page" and "commit_page" of "struct ring_buffer_per_cpu" points to
the same buffer page, whose "buffer_data_page" is empty and "read" field
is non-zero.

An error scenario could be constructed as followed (kernel perspective):

1. All pages in the buffer has been accessed by reader(s) so that all of
them will have non-zero "read" field.

2. Read and clear all buffer pages so that "rb_num_of_entries()" will
return 0 rendering there's no more data to read. It is also required
that the "read_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same
page, while "head_page" is the next page of them.

3. Invoke "ring_buffer_lock_reserve()" with large enough "length"
so that it shot pass the end of current tail buffer page. Now the
"head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page.

4. Discard current event with "ring_buffer_discard_commit()", so that
"head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to a page whose buffer
data page is now empty.

When the error scenario has been constructed, "tracing_read_pipe" will
be trapped inside a deadloop: "trace_empty()" returns 0 since
"rb_per_cpu_empty()" returns 0 when it hits the CPU containing such
constructed ring buffer. Then "trace_find_next_entry_inc()" always
return NULL since "rb_num_of_entries()" reports there's no more entry
to read. Finally "trace_seq_to_user()" returns "-EBUSY" spanking
"tracing_read_pipe" back to the start of the "waitagain" loop.

I've also written a proof-of-concept script to construct the scenario
and trigger the bug automatically, you can use it to trace and validate
my reasoning above:

  https://github.com/aegistudio/RingBufferDetonator.git

Tests has been carried out on linux kernel 5.14-rc2
(2734d6c1b1a089fb593ef6a23d4b70903526fe0c), my fixed version
of kernel (for testing whether my update fixes the bug) and
some older kernels (for range of affected kernels). Test result is
also attached to the proof-of-concept repository.

[ Upstream commit 72d0ad7cb5bad265adb2014dbe46c4ccb11afaba ]

The time remaining until expiry of the refresh_timer can be negative.
Casting the type to an unsigned 64-bit value will cause integer
underflow, making the runtime_refresh_within return false instead of
true. These situations are rare, but they do happen.

This does not cause user-facing issues or errors; other than
possibly unthrottling cfs_rq's using runtime from the previous period(s),
making the CFS bandwidth enforcement less strict in those (special)
situations.

commit 704adfb5a9978462cd861f170201ae2b5e3d3a80 upstream.

The histogram logic was allowing events with char * pointers to be used as
normal strings. But it was easy to crash the kernel with:

 # echo 'hist:keys=filename' &gt; events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/trigger

And open some files, and boom!

Where it triggered a fault on strlen(key) where key was the filename.

The reason is that filename is a char * to user space, and the histogram
code just blindly dereferenced it, with obvious bad results.

I originally tried to use strncpy_from_user/kernel_nofault() but found
that there's other places that its dereferenced and not worth the effort.

Just do not allow "char *" to act like strings.

commit 5fa54346caf67b4b1b10b1f390316ae466da4d53 upstream.

The system might hang with the following backtrace:

	schedule+0x80/0x100
	schedule_timeout+0x48/0x138
	wait_for_common+0xa4/0x134

	kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x108/0x1d0
	vfs_write+0x2f4/0x368
	ksys_write+0x7c/0xec

It is caused by the following race between kthread_mod_delayed_work()
and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync():

CPU0				CPU1

Context: Thread A		Context: Thread B

kthread_mod_delayed_work()
  spin_lock()
  __kthread_cancel_work()
     spin_unlock()
     del_timer_sync()
				kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync()
				  spin_lock()
				  __kthread_cancel_work()
				    spin_unlock()
				    del_timer_sync()
				    spin_lock()

				  work-&gt;canceling++
				  spin_unlock
     spin_lock()
   queue_delayed_work()
     // dwork is put into the worker-&gt;delayed_work_list

   spin_unlock()

				  kthread_flush_work()
     // flush_work is put at the tail of the dwork

				    wait_for_completion()

Context: IRQ

  kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn()
    spin_lock()
    list_del_init(&amp;work-&gt;node);
    spin_unlock()

BANG: flush_work is not longer linked and will never get proceed.

The problem is that kthread_mod_delayed_work() checks work-&gt;canceling
flag before canceling the timer.

A simple solution is to (re)check work-&gt;canceling after
__kthread_cancel_work().  But then it is not clear what should be
returned when __kthread_cancel_work() removed the work from the queue
(list) and it can't queue it again with the new @delay.

The return value might be used for reference counting.  The caller has
to know whether a new work has been queued or an existing one was
replaced.

The proper solution is that kthread_mod_delayed_work() will remove the
work from the queue (list) _only_ when work-&gt;canceling is not set.  The
flag must be checked after the timer is stopped and the remaining
operations can be done under worker-&gt;lock.

Note that kthread_mod_delayed_work() could remove the timer and then
bail out.  It is fine.  The other canceling caller needs to cancel the
timer as well.  The important thing is that the queue (list)
manipulation is done atomically under worker-&gt;lock.

commit 34b3d5344719d14fd2185b2d9459b3abcb8cf9d8 upstream.

Patch series "kthread_worker: Fix race between kthread_mod_delayed_work()
and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync()".

This patchset fixes the race between kthread_mod_delayed_work() and
kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() including proper return value
handling.

This patch (of 2):

Simple code refactoring as a preparation step for fixing a race between
kthread_mod_delayed_work() and kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync().

It does not modify the existing behavior.

<title>mm, futex: fix shared futex pgoff on shmem huge page</title>

[ Upstream commit fe19bd3dae3d15d2fbfdb3de8839a6ea0fe94264 ]

If more than one futex is placed on a shmem huge page, it can happen
that waking the second wakes the first instead, and leaves the second
waiting: the key's shared.pgoff is wrong.

When 3.11 commit 13d60f4b6ab5 ("futex: Take hugepages into account when
generating futex_key"), the only shared huge pages came from hugetlbfs,
and the code added to deal with its exceptional page-&gt;index was put into
hugetlb source.  Then that was missed when 4.8 added shmem huge pages.

page_to_pgoff() is what others use for this nowadays: except that, as
currently written, it gives the right answer on hugetlbfs head, but
nonsense on hugetlbfs tails.  Fix that by calling hugetlbfs-specific
hugetlb_basepage_index() on PageHuge tails as well as on head.

Yes, it's unconventional to declare hugetlb_basepage_index() there in
pagemap.h, rather than in hugetlb.h; but I do not expect anything but
page_to_pgoff() ever to need it.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: give hugetlb_basepage_index() prototype the correct scope]

commit 4fdd595e4f9a1ff6d93ec702eaecae451cfc6591 upstream.

A while ago, when the "trace" file was opened, tracing was stopped, and
code was added to stop recording the comms to saved_cmdlines, for mapping
of the pids to the task name.

Code has been added that only records the comm if a trace event occurred,
and there's no reason to not trace it if the trace file is opened.

<content type='text'>
commit 85550c83da421fb12dc1816c45012e1e638d2b38 upstream.

The saved_cmdlines is used to map pids to the task name, such that the
output of the tracing does not just show pids, but also gives a human
readable name for the task.

If the name is not mapped, the output looks like this:

    &lt;...&gt;-1316          [005] ...2   132.044039: ...

Instead of this:

    gnome-shell-1316    [005] ...2   132.044039: ...

The names are updated when tracing is running, but are skipped if tracing
is stopped. Unfortunately, this stops the recording of the names if the
top level tracer is stopped, and not if there's other tracers active.

The recording of a name only happens when a new event is written into a
ring buffer, so there is no need to test if tracing is on or not. If
tracing is off, then no event is written and no need to test if tracing is
off or not.

Remove the check, as it hides the names of tasks for events in the
instance buffers.

<title>tracing: Do no increment trace_clock_global() by one</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9627a9f3041cd533ca879204cfb395e66f68f8c2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 89529d8b8f8daf92d9979382b8d2eb39966846ea upstream.

The trace_clock_global() tries to make sure the events between CPUs is
somewhat in order. A global value is used and updated by the latest read
of a clock. If one CPU is ahead by a little, and is read by another CPU, a
lock is taken, and if the timestamp of the other CPU is behind, it will
simply use the other CPUs timestamp.

The lock is also only taken with a "trylock" due to tracing, and strange
recursions can happen. The lock is not taken at all in NMI context.

In the case where the lock is not able to be taken, the non synced
timestamp is returned. But it will not be less than the saved global
timestamp.

The problem arises because when the time goes "backwards" the time
returned is the saved timestamp plus 1. If the lock is not taken, and the
plus one to the timestamp is returned, there's a small race that can cause
the time to go backwards!

	CPU0				CPU1
	----				----
				trace_clock_global() {
				    ts = clock() [ 1000 ]
				    trylock(clock_lock) [ success ]
				    global_ts = ts; [ 1000 ]

				    &lt;interrupted by NMI&gt;
 trace_clock_global() {
    ts = clock() [ 999 ]
    if (ts &lt; global_ts)
	ts = global_ts + 1 [ 1001 ]

    trylock(clock_lock) [ fail ]

    return ts [ 1001]
 }
				    unlock(clock_lock);
				    return ts; [ 1000 ]
				}

 trace_clock_global() {
    ts = clock() [ 1000 ]
    if (ts &lt; global_ts) [ false 1000 == 1000 ]

    trylock(clock_lock) [ success ]
    global_ts = ts; [ 1000 ]
    unlock(clock_lock)

    return ts; [ 1000 ]
 }

The above case shows to reads of trace_clock_global() on the same CPU, but
the second read returns one less than the first read. That is, time when
backwards, and this is not what is allowed by trace_clock_global().

This was triggered by heavy tracing and the ring buffer checker that tests
for the clock going backwards:
