staging: vt6656: Fix inconsistent structure packing

2013-01-21T19:45:26Z

commit 1ee4c55fc9620451b2a825d793042a7e0775391b upstream. vt6656 has several headers that use the #pragma pack(1) directive to enable structure packing, but never disable it. The layout of structures defined in other headers can then depend on which order the various headers are included in, breaking the One Definition Rule. In practice this resulted in crashes on x86_64 until the order of header inclusion was changed for some files in commit 11d404cb56ecd ('staging: vt6656: fix headers and add cfg80211.'). But we need a proper fix that won't be affected by future changes to the order of inclusion. This removes the #pragma pack(1) directives and adds __packed to the structure definitions for which packing appears to have been intended.

staging: wlan-ng: Fix clamping of returned SSID length

2013-01-21T19:45:26Z

commit 811a37effdb11e54e1ff1ddaa944286c88f58487 upstream. Commit 2e254212 broke listing of available network names, since it clamped the length of the returned SSID to WLAN_BSSID_LEN (6) instead of WLAN_SSID_MAXLEN (32). https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52501 Signed-off-by: Tormod Volden Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial:ifx6x60:Delete SPI timer when shut down port

2013-01-21T19:45:26Z

commit 014b9b4ce84281ccb3d723c792bed19815f3571a upstream. When shut down SPI port, it's possible that MRDY has been asserted and a SPI timer was activated waiting for SRDY assert, in the case, it needs to delete this timer.

xen: Fix stack corruption in xen_failsafe_callback for 32bit PVOPS guests.

2013-01-21T19:45:25Z

commit 9174adbee4a9a49d0139f5d71969852b36720809 upstream. This fixes CVE-2013-0190 / XSA-40 There has been an error on the xen_failsafe_callback path for failed iret, which causes the stack pointer to be wrong when entering the iret_exc error path. This can result in the kernel crashing. In the classic kernel case, the relevant code looked a little like: popl %eax # Error code from hypervisor jz 5f addl $16,%esp jmp iret_exc # Hypervisor said iret fault 5: addl $16,%esp # Hypervisor said segment selector fault Here, there are two identical addls on either option of a branch which appears to have been optimised by hoisting it above the jz, and converting it to an lea, which leaves the flags register unaffected. In the PVOPS case, the code looks like: popl_cfi %eax # Error from the hypervisor lea 16(%esp),%esp # Add $16 before choosing fault path CFI_ADJUST_CFA_OFFSET -16 jz 5f addl $16,%esp # Incorrectly adjust %esp again jmp iret_exc It is possible unprivileged userspace applications to cause this behaviour, for example by loading an LDT code selector, then changing the code selector to be not-present. At this point, there is a race condition where it is possible for the hypervisor to return back to userspace from an interrupt, fault on its own iret, and inject a failsafe_callback into the kernel. This bug has been present since the introduction of Xen PVOPS support in commit 5ead97c84 (xen: Core Xen implementation), in 2.6.23.

xen/grant-table: correctly initialize grant table version 1

2013-01-21T19:45:25Z

commit d0b4d64aadb9f4a90669848de9ef3819050a98cd upstream. Commit 85ff6acb075a484780b3d763fdf41596d8fc0970 (xen/granttable: Grant tables V2 implementation) changed the GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME macro from a constant to a conditional expression. The expression depends on grant_table_version being appropriately set. Unfortunately, at init time grant_table_version will be 0. The GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME conditional expression checks for "grant_table_version == 1", and therefore returns the number of grant references per frame for v2. This causes gnttab_init() to allocate fewer pages for gnttab_list, as a frame can old half the number of v2 entries than v1 entries. After gnttab_resume() is called, grant_table_version is appropriately set. nr_init_grefs will then be miscalculated and gnttab_free_count will hold a value larger than the actual number of free gref entries. If a guest is heavily utilizing improperly initialized v1 grant tables, memory corruption can occur. One common manifestation is corruption of the vmalloc list, resulting in a poisoned pointer derefrence when accessing /proc/meminfo or /proc/vmallocinfo: [ 40.770064] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000200200001407 [ 40.770083] IP: [] get_vmalloc_info+0x70/0x110 [ 40.770102] PGD 0 [ 40.770107] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [ 40.770114] CPU 10 This patch introduces a static variable, grefs_per_grant_frame, to cache the calculated value. gnttab_init() now calls gnttab_request_version() early so that grant_table_version and grefs_per_grant_frame can be appropriately set. A few BUG_ON()s have been added to prevent this type of bug from reoccurring in the future.
