x86/mm/pat: Allocate split page tables as kernel page tables
A PTE is allocated directly without going through the standard page table
allocation routines (such as pte_alloc_one_kernel()) when the CPA code
splits a large page (__split_large_page()).
This means the page table constructor is never called nor is the page table
marked as a kernel page table.
The former results in the folio associated with the page table not being
marked as a page table (__pagetable_ctor() is never called thus neither is
__folio_set_pgtable()) nor are statistics updated to reflect
it (lruvec_stat_add_folio() is never called).
The latter issue of failing to mark the page table as a kernel page
table (ptdesc_set_kernel() is never called) is far more problematic.
Since commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
kernel page table freeing has been batched and since the
subsequent commit:
e37d5a2d60a3 ("iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space")
IOTLB cache entries for kernel page tables have been invalidated upon
being freed.
Since split page tables are freed without this invalidation, the IOTLB
can contain stale entries for them.
Resolve the issue by using the ordinary PTE allocation API at split time.
This results in these kernel page tables invoking a page table constructor,
and thus requires a page table destructor.
Destructors are not always present, like for early allocated direct map
page tables). Conditionally call pagetable_dtor_free() if the PG_table
folio flag for the ptdesc is set, otherwise we free the page table via
pagetable_free().
Regardless of which path is taken page tables marked as kernel page tables,
which now includes split page tables, take the correct route through
pagetable_free_kernel().
There is a user-visible side effect in that split page tables will appear
in nr_page_table_pages in /proc/vmstat (as do other kernel page tables
allocated after early boot), however this is a positive change.
This issue started being markedly problematic after commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
so choose this as the Fixes target.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mediatek: paris: bypass pinctrl GPIO layer in set GPIO direction
pinctrl_gpio_direction_input() / pinctrl_gpio_direction_output() take
the pinctrl mutex. This causes a gpiochip operations to need to sleep.
Worse yet, the .can_sleep field in the gpiochip is not set. This causes
the shared GPIO proxy to trip over, as it uses gpiod_cansleep() to check
whether it can use a spinlock or needs a mutex. In this case, it ends
up taking a spinlock, then calls pinctrl_gpio_direction_output(), which
takes a mutex. This causes a huge warning.
While this class of Mediatek hardware does not have separate clear/set
registers, the pinctrl context has a spinlock that is taken whenever
a register read-modify-write is done. Also, once the GPIO function is
selected / muxed in, further GPIO operations do not involve pinctrl
operations or state. The GPIO direction and level values do not require
toggling the pinmux or any other pin config options.
Switch to directly calling mtk_pinmux_gpio_set_direction() in the GPIO
set direction callbacks to avoid taking the pinctrl mutex. Drop the
.gpio_set_direction field in mtk_pmxops to signal we are no longer using
the pinctrl GPIO layer for setting the direction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
genirq/proc: Size interrupt directory names for 10-digit interrupt numbers
/proc/irq/<n>/ directory names are built in `char name[10]` buffers
with `sprintf(name, "%u", irq)`.
Ten-digit IRQ numbers already need 11 bytes including the trailing NUL, and
current sparse-IRQ configurations allow interrupt numbers in that range.
Size the temporary name buffer for the current decimal form and switch
to bounded formatting when creating or removing the proc entry. |

watchdog: lenovo_se10_wdt: Fix use-after-free and resource leak risk
Review by sashiko.dev highlighted potential use after free and resource
leak instances.
Set se10_pdev to null to prevent use after free
Remove DMI call back and instead directly call
se10_create_platform_device. Handle error cases appropriately |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/sysfs: Add CAP_SYS_ADMIN check to __resource_resize_store()
Currently, the __resource_resize_store() allows writing to the
resourceN_resize sysfs attribute to change a BAR's size without checking
for capabilities, currently relying only on the file access check.
Resizing a BAR modifies PCI device configuration and can disrupt active
drivers. After the upcoming conversion to static attributes, it will also
trigger resource file updates via sysfs_update_groups().
Add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN check to prevent unprivileged users from performing BAR
resize operations. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: chips-media: wave5: Release m2m_ctx after Instance Removed from List
Possible use after free if IRQ thread manages to obtain spinlock between
m2m_ctx release and wave5_release function removing stream instance from
list of active instances. The IRQ thread looks for the m2m_ctx which is
freed so null pointer dereference occurs. |

xfs: destroy seen inode bitmap when we fail to add a dirpath
LOLLM observes a memory leak in xchk_dirtree_create_path if we create
the directory path object but appending the name to the path fails.
When this happens, we don't tear down the (empty) seen inode bitmap.
This is a pretty trivial error, but let's not leave logic bombs.
Do the same for a similar bug in xrep_dirtree_create_adoption_path. |

mptcp: prevent race between disconnect() and rtx
Sashiko noted that the two event can race, leading to inconsistent
status. Prevent the race using the synchronous timer stop operation. |
| Path traversal for some gaudi-container-runtime before version 1.24.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires passive user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts. |

media: chips-media: wave5: Fix Reports from Kernel Lock Validator
handle_dynamic_resolution change requires that the state_lock be acquired
based on the lockdep_assert_held. However, the
handle_dynamic_resolution_change call in initialize_sequence does not
properly obtain the lock before calling.
Since the v4l2_ctrl_find and s_ctrl can sleep, they should not be called
while a lock is already held. Store off the fbc_buf_count then properly
update control once lock has been freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fix quota init duplicate scan
gfs2_quota_init() checks for duplicate quota_change IDs while holding
qd_lock and the quota hash bucket bitlock. That path used
gfs2_qd_search_bucket(), which takes a lockref reference via
lockref_get_not_dead().
On PREEMPT_RT this may sleep, which is not allowed under the bucket
bitlock, triggering "sleeping function called from invalid context".
Use a no-ref bucket lookup in this path, then continue duplicate
handling without taking a lockref there.
Refactor gfs2_qd_search_bucket() to build on top of the no-ref helper
so lookup traversal stays in one place.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: initialise args->total for parent pointer updates
xfs_parent_da_args_init() builds an xfs_da_args from a zeroed
xfs_parent_args (kmem_cache_zalloc), leaving args->total == 0.
xfs_da_grow_inode_int() treats that field as a running block reservation
and subtracts from it; because it is an xfs_extlen_t (uint32_t), the
first attr-fork growth wraps it to ~0U. That defeats the free-space
check in xfs_alloc_space_available(), and when it coincides with an AG
that has exactly zero available blocks the allocation is clamped to
maxlen 0 and returns -ENOSPC, which xfs_defer_finish_noroll() escalates
to a filesystem shutdown.
Set args->total the way the log recovery path does
(xfs_attri_recover_work(), xfs_attr_item.c:706), in the add and replace
paths that can grow the fork. Removals and lookups never grow it, so
they leave the field alone, matching that switch. |

bnxt_en: Prevent queue stop with deferred completions
When the driver receives a burst of packets, it can mark a BD with the
NO_CMPL bit to defer completions. The expectation is that the last
packet in the ring will have this bit unset and the completion generated
by that packet will cleanup that packet and the ones preceding it. This
helps to reduce the number of completions fired.
The suppressed completions are controlled by the driver and the number
of packets with suppressed completions scales with the size of the ring.
SW USO packets, on the other hand, have an upper bound on the maximum
number of BDs which can be consumed which does not scale with the ring
size.
So, for small rings it is possible that: a burst of packets is handed to
the driver, the driver defers completions for all of the packets because
the number of free descriptors stays above the threshold in the driver.
Then, a USO packet arrives, but the number of BDs available is not
enough and the USO code exits early.
In this case, you end up in a state where the ring is full of packets
with their completions suppressed, which can cause the queue to stop and
never be restarted.
Assuming default CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS, this is only possible for small
rings (<= 457 descriptors, below the driver default value) when
a burst of packets fills the ring, followed by a large USO packet that
can't fit. For larger rings, the delta between the completion
suppression threshold and the BDs required for SW USO is large enough
that completions will fire and this case is unreachable.
This issue was pointed out by Sashiko and while it seems fairly unlikely
given that the queue size must be small to trigger this, it is indeed
possible.
Fix this by tracking the last BD which deferred completions and
centralizing the logic for deciding when to ring the doorbell. The NO_CMPL
bit is now cleared in bnxt_txr_db_kick(), so every doorbell site is
covered, including the SW USO early exit. This guarantees the ring always
ends in a BD which generates a completion to clean it and wake the queue. |
