2012-08-17cifs: fix possible memory corruption in CIFSFindNextJeff Layton
commit 9438fabb73eb48055b58b89fc51e0bc4db22fabd upstream. The name_len variable in CIFSFindNext is a signed int that gets set to the resume_name_len in the cifs_search_info. The resume_name_len however is unsigned and for some infolevels is populated directly from a 32 bit value sent by the server. If the server sends a very large value for this, then that value could look negative when converted to a signed int. That would make that value pass the PATH_MAX check later in CIFSFindNext. The name_len would then be used as a length value for a memcpy. It would then be treated as unsigned again, and the memcpy scribbles over a ton of memory. Fix this by making the name_len an unsigned value in CIFSFindNext.

2011-06-26CIFS: Fix oplock break handling (try #2)Pavel Shilovsky
commit 12fed00de963433128b5366a21a55808fab2f756 upstream. When we get oplock break notification we should set the appropriate value of OplockLevel field in oplock break acknowledge according to the oplock level held by the client in this time. As we only can have level II oplock or no oplock in the case of oplock break, we should be aware only about clientCanCacheRead field in cifsInodeInfo structure. Also fix bug connected with wrong interpretation of OplockLevel field during oplock break notification processing. [PG: above OplockLevel bug only exists via. e66673e39a which didn't appear until v2.6.37-rc2, so cifs/misc.c hunk dropped.] Signed-off-by: Pavel Shilovsky <piastryyy@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

2010-04-03cifs: Fix a kernel BUG with remote OS/2 server (try #3)Suresh Jayaraman
While chasing a bug report involving a OS/2 server, I noticed the server sets pSMBr->CountHigh to a incorrect value even in case of normal writes. This results in 'nbytes' being computed wrongly and triggers a kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c. void iov_iter_advance(struct iov_iter *i, size_t bytes) { BUG_ON(i->count < bytes); <--- BUG here Why the server is setting 'CountHigh' is not clear but only does so after writing 64k bytes. Though this looks like the server bug, the client side crash may not be acceptable. The workaround is to mask off high 16 bits if the number of bytes written as returned by the server is greater than the bytes requested by the client as suggested by Jeff Layton.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2009-09-24cifs: convert oplock breaks to use slow_work facility (try #4)Jeff Layton
This is the fourth respin of the patch to convert oplock breaks to use the slow_work facility. A customer of ours was testing a backport of one of the earlier patchsets, and hit a "Busy inodes after umount..." problem. An oplock break job had raced with a umount, and the superblock got torn down and its memory reused. When the oplock break job tried to dereference the inode->i_sb, the kernel oopsed. This patchset has the oplock break job hold an inode and vfsmount reference until the oplock break completes. With this, there should be no need to take a tcon reference (the vfsmount implicitly holds one already). Currently, when an oplock break comes in there's a chance that the oplock break job won't occur if the allocation of the oplock_q_entry fails. There are also some rather nasty races in the allocation and handling these structs. Rather than allocating oplock queue entries when an oplock break comes in, add a few extra fields to the cifsFileInfo struct. Get rid of the dedicated cifs_oplock_thread as well and queue the oplock break job to the slow_work thread pool. This approach also has the advantage that the oplock break jobs can potentially run in parallel rather than be serialized like they are today.

This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.
