ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write on Type II inbound URBs [+ + +]

    ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write on Type II inbound URBs
    
    commit 69ee44e1a23be62318189dc4b37fa4ad94053269 upstream.
    
    data_ep_set_params() sizes each URB transfer buffer before it adds the
    Format Type II transfer delimiter:
    
            u->packets = urb_packs;
            u->buffer_size = maxsize * u->packets;
    
            if (fmt->fmt_type == UAC_FORMAT_TYPE_II)
                    u->packets++; /* for transfer delimiter */
            u->urb = usb_alloc_urb(u->packets, GFP_KERNEL);
    
    buffer_size is computed from the pre-increment packet count and never
    recomputed, so for a Type II endpoint the buffer is one packet short of
    the packet count the URB is built with.
    
    prepare_inbound_urb() then lays out one iso frame per packet and never
    consults buffer_size:
    
            offs = 0;
            for (i = 0; i < urb_ctx->packets; i++) {
                    urb->iso_frame_desc[i].offset = offs;
                    urb->iso_frame_desc[i].length = ep->curpacksize;
                    offs += ep->curpacksize;
            }
    
            urb->transfer_buffer_length = offs;
            urb->number_of_packets = urb_ctx->packets;
    
    The last descriptor therefore points one packet past the end of the
    transfer buffer, where the host controller writes device data on every
    inbound transfer.  prepare_silent_urb() and prepare_playback_urb() bound
    their fill loops by ctx->buffer_size, so only capture is affected.
    
    fmt_type comes from the device's audio streaming descriptors, so any
    device advertising a Type II capture format hits this once userspace sets
    hw_params on the stream.
    
    KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64) with a dummy_hcd/raw-gadget device, one report
    per inbound transfer:
    
      BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in dummy_timer

      The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
       allocated 64-byte region [ffff000018617180, ffff0000186171c0)
    
    Compute buffer_size after the delimiter packet has been accounted for,
    and bound the fill loop by buffer_size, as prepare_silent_urb() already
    does on the outbound side.  This grows every Type II URB allocation by
    one maxsize packet.

    ALSA: usb: Fix UAF at delayed release of MIDI2 EPs
    
    commit f8a80cfb68613fb7e6452b66447dbc63f435d140 upstream.
    
    The recent fix for UAF in ump_to_endpoint() caused another UAF because
    it tries to dereference the UMP endpoint object, but this might be
    executed at a delayed context where the endpoint has been already
    released.
    
    Add private_free to clear the associated data for avoiding the further
    dereference for delayed releases.

ALSA: usx2y: bound the hwdep mmap fault offset [+ + +]
Author: Baul Lee <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Aug 5 10:34:45 2026 +0900

    ALSA: usx2y: bound the hwdep mmap fault offset
    
    commit 2ca1eea3cd17930daffe9e429a7c89232036ec24 upstream.
    
    snd_us428ctls_vm_fault() turns the faulting page offset into a kernel
    address with no bound of any kind:
    
            offset = vmf->pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT;
            vaddr = (char *)(...)->us428ctls_sharedmem + offset;
            page = virt_to_page(vaddr);
            get_page(page);
            vmf->page = page;
    
            return 0;
    
    snd_us428ctls_mmap() checks only the length of the mapping, never the
    offset, and us428ctls_sharedmem is a single page from
    alloc_pages_exact().  For a character device file_mmap_size_max()
    returns ULONG_MAX, so the mm layer imposes no ceiling either.  Every page
    offset above zero resolves to a struct page outside the object, and the
    handler installs it into the caller's address space read-write; the vma
    is not marked read-only.
    
    The caller picks the page frame with a single mmap() argument and gets
    read-write access to a page of kernel memory it does not own; an offset
    that lands in an unpopulated vmemmap region oopses instead.
    
    A process that can open the hwdep node of an attached US-X2Y reaches
    this after loading the FPGA image through the same node; no capability
    check is involved.
    
    On 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64), mmap() with a large offset:
    
      Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffdffc45d5ac8
      pc : snd_us428ctls_vm_fault+0x68/0x140 [snd_usb_usx2y]

       handle_mm_fault
       el0_da
    
    Reject any offset outside the shared region.  The pcm hwdep handler in
    usx2yhwdeppcm.c computes its address the same way and needs the same
    bound.

bnxt_en: Disable EOP for TPA on all chips to prevent data corruption [+ + +]

    bnxt_en: Disable EOP for TPA on all chips to prevent data corruption
    
    [ Upstream commit c3faf548a00f4c17100cc9204746975fa46a73b9 ]
    
    EOP (End of frame padding) on the AGG ring may cause overlapping of
    zero padding at the end of one segment with the next segment's data.
    If Relaxed Ordering (RO) is enabled, the zero padding may overwrite
    valid data in the next segment and corrupt the data.  Older chips
    (P5 and older) do not automatically disable RO when EOP is enabled.
    On some ARM systems, data corruption was reported on 57508 (P5)
    chips with RO enabled.
    
    Always disable EOP on all chips on the AGG rings when TPA is enabled
    to fix the data corruption.

    [ Upstream commit 30f253f8d9a01d532fdb7ec6c8a9d4c15fe29241 ]
    
    With End-of-Packet padding (EOP) set, the chip will disable Relaxed
    Ordering (RO) of TPA data packets.  A TPA segment with EOP set will be
    padded to the next cache boundary and can potentially overwrite the
    beginning bytes of the next TPA segment when RO is enabled on 5760X.
    To prevent that, the chip disables RO for TPA when EOP is set.
    
    To take advantge of RO and higher performance, do not set EOP on
    5760X chips when TPA is enabled.  Define a proper RX_BD_FLAGS_AGG_EOP
    constant to make it clear that we are setting EOP.

    [ Upstream commit 683c6ba6e58e6ed1037831ea97dd58d9c0e76b8d ]
    
    bond_alb_monitor() reads primary_is_promisc under RCU, then drops RCU and
    takes RTNL via rtnl_trylock() before undoing the promiscuity it set on the
    active slave. In that window the active slave can change under RTNL
    (RTM_DELLINK -> __bond_release_one() -> bond_alb_handle_active_change()),
    which already drops the promiscuity and clears primary_is_promisc. The
    monitor still acts on the stale decision: if the slave was removed with no
    failover, curr_active_slave is now NULL and the deref faults; if it failed
    over, the stale dev_set_promiscuity(-1) underflows the new slave's
    promiscuity counter and pins it in IFF_PROMISC.

bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict [+ + +]

    bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict
    
    commit a76624733730e541e4955fdecf506af2f6b20558 upstream.
    
    sk_psock_msg_verdict() takes a socket reference for psock->sk_redir.
    tcp_bpf_send_verdict() copies that pointer while holding the source socket
    lock, but does not take a reference for the local copy before dropping the
    lock around tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir().
    
    When apply_bytes keeps the cached verdict active, another sendmsg() on the
    same source socket can consume the remaining bytes and release the cached
    reference while the first thread still holds only the raw local pointer:
    
      CPU 0                                  CPU 1
      sk_redir = psock->sk_redir

                                             apply_bytes reaches zero

    The final sock_put() can free sk_redir before CPU 0 dereferences it.

    bpf: Preserve pointer state for commuted arithmetic
    
    [ Upstream commit a4c6f804b44c5c790269b25e0e61cf4e9f117c86 ]
    
    When scalar += pointer is handled in adjust_ptr_min_max_vals(), the
    destination register inherits the pointer state from the source pointer.
    Copying only selected fields is fragile because pointer provenance is
    tracked by several bpf_reg_state fields.
    
    Use the caller's temporary offset register to preserve the scalar operand
    while replacing the destination with the full pointer state. This preserves
    the frame number for PTR_TO_STACK registers and keeps parent identity
    fields consistent.

bpf: tcp: Avoid socket skips and repeats during iteration [+ + +]

    bpf: tcp: Avoid socket skips and repeats during iteration
    
    [ Upstream commit f5080f612a1c587bf636bb23d2a2f4de276d60e4 ]
    
    Replace the offset-based approach for tracking progress through a bucket
    in the TCP table with one based on socket cookies. Remember the cookies
    of unprocessed sockets from the last batch and use this list to
    pick up where we left off or, in the case that the next socket
    disappears between reads, find the first socket after that point that
    still exists in the bucket and resume from there.
    
    This approach guarantees that all sockets that existed when iteration
    began and continue to exist throughout will be visited exactly once.
    Sockets that are added to the table during iteration may or may not be
    seen, but if they are they will be seen exactly once.

bpf: tcp: fix double sock release on batch realloc [+ + +]

    bpf: tcp: fix double sock release on batch realloc
    
    commit 980a813452754f8001704744e92f7aa697c53dd3 upstream.
    
    bpf_iter_tcp_batch() releases the current batch via
    bpf_iter_tcp_put_batch(), which drops the socket refs and rewrites
    each slot with the socket cookie, then grows the batch. cur_sk/end_sk
    are kept for bpf_iter_tcp_resume(), but on realloc failure the function
    returns ERR_PTR() before resume runs, leaving cur_sk < end_sk over
    slots that now hold cookies rather than sock pointers.
    bpf_iter_tcp_seq_stop() then calls bpf_iter_tcp_put_batch() again and
    dereferences a cookie as a struct sock.
    
    Empty the batch on the failure path so stop() does not release it
    again. The sockets were already freed by the first
    bpf_iter_tcp_put_batch(), so nothing leaks, and a later read() rescans
    the bucket from the start instead of skipping it. The sibling
    GFP_NOWAIT failure path still holds real socket references and is left
    for stop() to release.

    bpf: tcp: Fix use-after-free in bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch()
    
    [ Upstream commit e5fd3f514e27db1f05fbd72ba615d74941e23c51 ]
    
    reqsk_queue_hash_req() publishes a TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV request_sock onto
    the ehash chain, drops the bucket lock, and only afterwards sets
    rsk_refcnt to 3.
    
    Lockless readers such as __inet_lookup_established() handle this with
    refcount_inc_not_zero(), but bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch() uses plain
    sock_hold() while holding the bucket lock, on the assumption that the
    lock guarantees sk_refcnt > 0. That assumption does not hold for
    request_sock:
    
      CPU 0                                CPU 1
      -----                                -----
      tcp_conn_request()
       reqsk_queue_hash_req()

         spin_lock(bucket)
         __sk_nulls_add_node_rcu(req)      // rsk_refcnt == 0
         spin_unlock(bucket)
                                           bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch()
                                            spin_lock(bucket)
                                            sock_hold(req)   <-- addition on 0
                                            spin_unlock(bucket)
        refcount_set(&req->rsk_refcnt, 3)  // clobbers saturated value
    
    which surfaces as:
    
      refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
      WARNING: lib/refcount.c:25 at refcount_warn_saturate+0x48/0x90, CPU#1

       vfs_read+0xb9/0x380
    
    The iterator's stolen reference is lost when the publishing CPU's
    refcount_set() overwrites the count, leaving the socket one reference
    short. When the last legitimate owner drops its reference the reqsk is
    freed while still reachable, leading to use-after-free.
    
    This reproduces in seconds with tcp_syncookies=0, a handful of threads
    doing connect()/close() to a local listener while others read an
    iter/tcp link in a tight loop.
    
    Use refcount_inc_not_zero() and skip the socket on failure. A skipped
    socket is still part of the bucket, so keep counting it in expected.
    The reallocations are sized from expected, and a request sock whose
    refcount gets published while the lock is held across the last realloc
    must already have room.
    
    A skipped socket is counted in expected but never batched, so end_sk
    can be short of expected on a batch that is actually complete. Decide
    completeness by whether the walk left any socket behind instead. The
    WARN after the locked realloc checks the same, replacing an
    end_sk == expected check that could not hold on that path since
    commit cdec67a489d4 ("bpf: tcp: Make sure iter->batch always
    contains a full bucket snapshot").
    
    If every matching socket in a bucket is mid-init (refcount 0), end_sk
    stays 0. Advance to the next bucket rather than returning a batch entry
    that was never filled this round.

bpf: tcp: Make sure iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot [+ + +]

    bpf: tcp: Make sure iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot
    
    [ Upstream commit cdec67a489d4fdae3e83e04fca0419136a83c4c2 ]
    
    Require that iter->batch always contains a full bucket snapshot. This
    invariant is important to avoid skipping or repeating sockets during
    iteration when combined with the next few patches. Before, there were
    two cases where a call to bpf_iter_tcp_batch may only capture part of a
    bucket:
    
    1. When bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() returns -ENOMEM.
    2. When more sockets are added to the bucket while calling
       bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch(), making the updated batch size
       insufficient.
    
    In cases where the batch size only covers part of a bucket, it is
    possible to forget which sockets were already visited, especially if we
    have to process a bucket in more than two batches. This forces us to
    choose between repeating or skipping sockets, so don't allow this:
    
    1. Stop iteration and propagate -ENOMEM up to userspace if reallocation
       fails instead of continuing with a partial batch.
    2. Try bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() with GFP_USER just as before, but if
       we still aren't able to capture the full bucket, call
       bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch() again while holding the bucket lock to
       guarantee the bucket does not change. On the second attempt use
       GFP_NOWAIT since we hold onto the spin lock.
    
    I did some manual testing to exercise the code paths where GFP_NOWAIT is
    used and where ERR_PTR(err) is returned. I used the realloc test cases
    included later in this series to trigger a scenario where a realloc
    happens inside bpf_iter_tcp_batch and made a small code tweak to force
    the first realloc attempt to allocate a too-small batch, thus requiring
    another attempt with GFP_NOWAIT. Some printks showed both reallocs with
    the tests passing:
    
    Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_USER
    Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_NOWAIT
    Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_USER
    Jun 27 00:00:53 crow kernel: again GFP_NOWAIT
    
    With this setup, I also forced each of the bpf_iter_tcp_realloc_batch
    calls to return -ENOMEM to ensure that iteration ends and that the
    read() in userspace fails.

    counter: microchip-tcb-capture: Fix DT channel validation
    
    [ Upstream commit f1a3a9946aab611dd2200c01ff122f64b033dad2 ]
    
    mchp_tc_probe() reads the devicetree "reg" cell - a u32, per the API
    contract of of_property_read_u32_index() - into a signed int, so the
    bounds check "channel > 2" fails to reject cell values at or above
    0x80000000: reinterpreted as a negative int, they compare below 2 and
    pass validation.
    
    A malformed devicetree can therefore drive a negative channel into the
    ATMEL_TC_REG() offset arithmetic, making the driver access syscon
    regmap offsets outside the TC block's register window, and into the
    "t%d_clk" clock-name formatting, where it truncates clk_name (sized
    for "t0_clk".."t2_clk").
    
    Declare channel as u32, matching the API contract; the unsigned
    comparison then rejects everything except channels 0..2. Adjust the
    format specifier to %u accordingly, which also resolves the W=1
    warning that exposed the gap:
    
      microchip-tcb-capture.c:520:56: warning: '%d' directive output may
        be truncated writing between 1 and 11 bytes into a region of size
        6 [-Wformat-truncation=]
      note: directive argument in the range [-2147483648, 2]
    
    No behavior change for well-formed devicetrees: channels 0..2 take
    identical paths before and after.

    devlink: fix net namespace reference leak in reload
    
    [ Upstream commit 1c4dac9bf1d2ac31da63b794bdec697777cbd0fd ]
    
    devlink_nl_reload_doit() calls devlink_netns_get(), which returns a net
    with a held reference. When the requested namespace differs from the
    current one and the reload action is not DRIVER_REINIT, the function
    returns -EOPNOTSUPP without releasing the reference. Add the missing
    put_net() on this error path.

    dt-bindings: crypto: qcom,ice: Fix missing power-domain and iface clk
    
    [ Upstream commit e27264daac7d9ce892a2a5b4a864d6d9a3c9276a ]
    
    The DT bindings for inline-crypto engine do not specify the UFS_PHY_GDSC
    power-domain and iface clock. Without enabling the iface clock and the
    associated power-domain the ICE hardware cannot function correctly and
    leads to unclocked hardware accesses being observed during probe.
    
    Extend and fix the DT bindings for inline-crypto engine by allowing
    description of the iface clock and UFS_PHY_GDSC power-domain.
    
    This patch has been adapted from the mentioned upstream commit to drop
    references to Eliza and Milos Qualcomm platforms which do not exist
    on the stable tree. Thus, patch now fixes the original commit which
    introduced the DT binding for Qualcomm inline-crypto engine.

    eventfs: Fix use-after-free in eventfs_remove_rec()
    
    commit fd73b691702170d37d66f4b0278530cea8ed419a upstream.
    
    eventfs_remove_rec() recursively removes the child at the current loop
    position. After the recursive call returns, list_for_each_entry() advances
    by reading list.next from the removed child.
    
    If free_ei() drops the final reference, release_ei() reuses the list/rcu
    union to queue an SRCU callback. The child may be freed before that read.
    The eventfs_mutex serializes list updates, but it does not keep the removed
    child alive or prevent the SRCU callback from running.
    
    Use list_for_each_entry_safe() to save the next sibling before recursively
    removing the current child.

fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_cursor() [+ + +]
Author: Rik van Riel <[email protected]>
Date:   Fri Aug 7 22:19:56 2026 -0400

    fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_cursor()
    
    commit e033cbf3975a8465f879ebd5989dc35b04423a4d upstream.
    
    bit_cursor() fetches the glyph under the cursor with
    
            c = scr_readw(vc_pos);
            src = vc_font.data + ((c & charmask) * w * height);
    
    where charmask is 0x1ff when vc_hi_font_mask is set. The screen buffer
    value comes directly from scr_readw() and may be larger than the current
    font's glyph count.
    
    Syzkaller triggers this via vcs_write(). The Call Trace shows
    vcs_write() in vc_screen.c writing an arbitrary 16-bit value with
    writev() to /dev/vcsa, which vcs_write_buf() in vc_screen.c stores via
    vcs_scr_writew() without checking charcount. The stored value is later
    read in bit_cursor() in bitblit.c.
    
    When the font is changed from a font with 512 glyphs to a font with
    256 glyphs, the screen buffer can retain characters with the high
    bit set from the previous mode, which could also produce the same
    out-of-bounds access.
    
      BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in soft_cursor+0x378/0x6bc drivers/video/fbdev/core/softcursor.c:70
      Read of size 16 at addr ffff800086c57970
    
      Call Trace:
       soft_cursor+0x378/0x6bc drivers/video/fbdev/core/softcursor.c:70

       vcs_write+0x8ec/0xaf0 drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c:685
    
    bit_putcs_aligned() and bit_putcs_unaligned() already clamp the glyph
    index to vc_font.charcount. Apply the same clamp in bit_cursor() after
    extracting the attribute and masking, before indexing fontdata.
    
    The fix completes the bounds checking started in commit 18c4ef4e765a
    ("fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*"), which missed
    the cursor path.
    
    This change should be safe because the clamp reuses the existing
    contract from fbcon: charcount is maintained under console_lock in
    con_font_set() and fbcon_font_set(), and hi_font_mask is cleared when
    switching from 512 to 256 glyphs. When stale screen data with high bits
    remains after a font switch, or when vcs_write() stores an arbitrary
    value, clamping the index to 0 prevents the out-of-bounds read without
    changing cursor semantics — the same fallback bit_putcs uses.

fortify: Disable -Wstringop-overread in tests [+ + +]

    fortify: Disable -Wstringop-overread in tests
    
    commit c1f3e770eec26d6f96dd6d2ea30555ba7c09a244 upstream.
    
    clang recently added support for -Wstringop-overread [1], which is on by
    default like -Wfortify-source. This breaks the usage of -Werror in the
    fortify tests, resulting in the following false positive warnings in the
    kernel build:
    
      warning: unsafe memcmp() usage lacked '__read_overflow2' warning in lib/test_fortify/read_overflow2-memcmp.c
      warning: unsafe memcmp() usage lacked '__read_overflow' warning in lib/test_fortify/read_overflow-memcmp.c
      warning: unsafe memchr() usage lacked '__read_overflow' warning in lib/test_fortify/read_overflow-memchr.c
    
    Examining the fortify test logs shows a warning like the following in
    each of the failed logs:
    
      In file included from lib/test_fortify/read_overflow2-memcmp.c:5:
      lib/test_fortify/test_fortify.h:34:2: error: 'memcmp' reading 17 bytes from a region of size 16 [-Werror,-Wstringop-overread]

            |         ^
      1 error generated.
    
    Disable -Wstringop-overread for the fortify tests, as it defeats the
    purpose of testing the Linux specific implementation of fortify, like
    -Wfortify-source.

fortify: refactor test_fortify Makefile to fix some build problems [+ + +]
Author: Masahiro Yamada <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Jul 28 00:02:36 2024 +0900

    fortify: refactor test_fortify Makefile to fix some build problems
    
    commit 4e9903b0861c9df3464b82db4a7025863bac1897 upstream.
    
    There are some issues in the test_fortify Makefile code.
    
    Problem 1: cc-disable-warning invokes compiler dozens of times
    
    To see how many times the cc-disable-warning is evaluated, change
    this code:
    
      $(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source)
    
    to:
    
      $(call cc-disable-warning,$(shell touch /tmp/fortify-$$$$)fortify-source)
    
    Then, build the kernel with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y. You will see a
    large number of '/tmp/fortify-<PID>' files created:
    
      $ ls -1 /tmp/fortify-* | wc
           80      80    1600
    
    This means the compiler was invoked 80 times just for checking the
    -Wno-fortify-source flag support.
    
    $(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source) should be added to a simple
    variable instead of a recursive variable.
    
    Problem 2: do not recompile string.o when the test code is updated
    
    The test cases are independent of the kernel. However, when the test
    code is updated, $(obj)/string.o is rebuilt and vmlinux is relinked
    due to this dependency:
    
      $(obj)/string.o: $(obj)/$(TEST_FORTIFY_LOG)
    
    always-y is suitable for building the log files.
    
    Problem 3: redundant code
    
      clean-files += $(addsuffix .o, $(TEST_FORTIFY_LOGS))
    
    ... is unneeded because the top Makefile globally cleans *.o files.
    
    This commit fixes these issues and makes the code readable.

fscrypt: Replace mk_users keyring with simple list [+ + +]
Author: Eric Biggers <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Aug 15 11:30:36 2026 -0700

    fscrypt: Replace mk_users keyring with simple list
    
    commit 696c030e1e3438955aba443b308ee8b6faa3983e upstream.
    
    Change mk_users (the set of user claims to an fscrypt master key) from a
    'struct key' keyring to a simple linked list.
    
    It's still a collection of 'struct key' for quota tracking.  It was
    originally thought to be natural that a collection of 'struct key'
    should be held in a 'struct key' keyring.  In reality, it's just been
    causing problems, similar to how using 'struct key' for the filesystem
    keyring caused problems and was removed in commit d7e7b9af104c
    ("fscrypt: stop using keyrings subsystem for fscrypt_master_key").
    
    Commit d3a7bd420076 ("fscrypt: clear keyring before calling key_put()")
    fixed mk_users cleanup to be synchronous.  But that apparently wasn't
    enough: the keyring subsystem's redundant locking is still generating
    lockdep false positives due to the interaction with filesystem reclaim.
    
    With the simple list, the redundant locking and lockdep issue goes away.
    
    Of course, searching a linked list is linear-time whereas the
    'struct key' keyring used a fancy constant-time associative array.  But
    that's fine here, since in practice there's just one entry in the list.
    In fact the new code is much faster in practice, since it's much smaller
    and doesn't have to convert the kuid_t into a string to search for it.

fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy() [+ + +]

    fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy()
    
    commit cf6c993c0feca7984797e634deba3c80342e199a upstream.
    
    fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy() calls inode_owner_or_capable() with
    &nop_mnt_idmap before allowing an encryption policy to be set, instead
    of the idmap of the mount the ioctl was issued on.
    
    fscrypt is used by filesystems that support idmapped mounts (e.g. ext4,
    f2fs), so on such a mount this compares the caller's fsuid against the
    unmapped on-disk owner rather than the mapped owner: the actual owner
    can be wrongly denied with -EACCES and an unrelated caller wrongly
    allowed.  Use file_mnt_idmap(filp) instead.

futex: Prevent robust futex exit race some more [+ + +]
Author: Keno Fischer <[email protected]>
Date:   Fri Aug 14 14:44:30 2026 +0200

    futex: Prevent robust futex exit race some more
    
    commit 6d4514ca9cdf61fec4ec634cf50386f6f7e69748 upstream.
    
    A robust futex unlock stores 0 over the whole futex value - wiping
    FUTEX_WAITERS - and wakes a single waiter. That wakeup is a one-shot
    notification: the protocol relies on its recipient to either acquire the
    futex (and eventually unlock while aware of the remaining contention) or
    re-arm FUTEX_WAITERS before sleeping again.  If the woken waiter is killed
    before it can do either, the kernel must jump in and wake the next task
    down the line.
    
    This is a known complication of the futex protocol with a previous
    partial fix in commit ca16d5bee598 ("futex: Prevent robust futex exit
    race"). Unfortunately, that fix is insufficient.
    
    If a third task re-acquired the futex through the uncontended fast
    path in the meantime, the notification is lost: robust exit processing
    sees that it is owned by another task and does nothing, while the new
    owner sees no FUTEX_WAITERS when it unlocks and wakes nobody.
    The remaining waiters sleep forever behind a free futex:
    
      A owns the futex, B and C sleep in FUTEX_WAIT
                                            uval == A | FUTEX_WAITERS
      A robust unlock: store 0, FUTEX_WAKE(1) wakes B
                                            uval == 0
      D fast path acquire: cmpxchg(0 -> D)
                                            uval == D, no FUTEX_WAITERS
      B killed before acting on the wakeup
      B exit walk, pending op: owner D != B -> no action
      D unlock: no FUTEX_WAITERS -> no wake
                                            C sleeps forever
    
    This is clearly a shortcoming in the implementation, which fails to keep
    the FUTEX_WAITERS bit consistent.
    
    Work around this by augmenting the robust list exit processing to also
    perform the extra wakeup if the futex word is owned by another thread but
    FUTEX_WAITERS is not set.
    
    This does not fix the problem of a non-contended take over/release and free
    sequence, which has been discussed for years and has been addressed by
    commit 3ca9595d9fb6 ("futex: Add support for unlocking robust futexes") and
    subsequent changes, but failed to take the problem described above into
    account.
    
    A more complete solution which is based on the in kernel unlock of
    contended robust futexes has been discussed in the context of this change
    and should show up in mainline sooner than later.

hwmon: (ads7828) Fix external VREF regulator handling [+ + +]

    hwmon: (ads7828) Fix external VREF regulator handling
    
    [ Upstream commit fddb5ceaf901b050ed2a1a7deeecbf97e003435a ]
    
    The driver currently has two issues with the external VREF regulator
    handling in ads7828_probe():
    
    1. All errors from devm_regulator_get_optional() are ignored, causing the
       driver to incorrectly fall back to internal VREF even for transient
       errors like -EPROBE_DEFER or genuine failures like -ENOMEM.
    
    2. The external regulator is never enabled. The driver calls
       regulator_get_voltage() without first calling regulator_enable(),
       so the VREF pin may remain unpowered if the regulator is not
       configured as always-on.
    
    Fix both issues by switching to devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage(),
    which handles regulator get, enable, and voltage read in one call.
    Only -ENODEV (no regulator specified in device tree) should trigger the
    fallback to internal VREF. All other errors are propagated to the caller.

hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) Check return value of init_device() in probe [+ + +]

    hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) Check return value of init_device() in probe
    
    [ Upstream commit d533882ce1060866a590257f2c77ee23eabef5b8 ]
    
    The init_device() call in nzxt_smart2_hid_probe() can fail because it
    sends HID output reports to the hardware to detect fans and set the
    update interval.  If the hardware is not responding or the HID reports
    fail, init_device() returns a negative error code.
    
    However, the return value was ignored, causing the probe to continue
    and register an hwmon device even though the device was never properly
    initialized.  This leads to an inconsistent state where the driver
    reports stale data or blocks on wait queues that will never be woken.
    
    The same function's return value is already checked in the
    reset_resume() handler, confirming the author's intent that errors
    should be propagated.
    
    Note that this fix was not possible before commit 59d104b54b0b
    ("hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop")
    because the out_hw_close error path was missing hid_device_io_stop(),
    which would have opened a use-after-free risk window.

    hwmon: (pmbus/lm25066) Fix PMBus coefficient calculations
    
    [ Upstream commit 0dabe8a56f772f0ece46d2597799f412c277d874 ]
    
    In lm25066_probe(), the PMBus coefficients for current and power are
    scaled based on the shunt resistor value. The calculation evaluates the
    multiplication using 32-bit arithmetic because info->m is an int and
    shunt is a u32:
    
    static int lm25066_probe(struct i2c_client *client) {
        ...
        info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] * shunt / 1000;
        info->m[PSC_POWER] = info->m[PSC_POWER] * shunt / 1000;
        ...
    }
    
    For large coefficients like 26882 (LM25056) or 15076 (LM5066i), a device
    tree shunt-resistor-micro-ohms value exceeding approximately 159,000
    (159 mOhm, which is physically valid for low-current applications) causes
    the intermediate product to exceed UINT_MAX (4,294,967,295). This results
    in a silent wraparound before the division by 1000.
    
    Furthermore, if the wrapped value has the most significant bit set,
    converting it back to the signed int info->m results in negative
    coefficients. This logic error leads to drastically corrupted current and
    power readings, which can cause erratic thermal or power management
    behavior in the system.
    
    Fix the problem by using 64-bit operations for the multiply/divide
    operations. This can still overflow, but only for unreasonably large
    shunt resistor values.

ima: fix out-of-bounds read in xattr_verify() [+ + +]

Date:   Mon Aug 3 10:50:21 2026 -0300

    ima: fix out-of-bounds read in xattr_verify()
    
    commit 5ff232d31106f45ac87c3b64e1d35a0667777797 upstream.
    
    The digest-length check in xattr_verify() mixes int and size_t:
    
            if (xattr_len - sizeof(xattr_value->type) - hash_start >=
                            iint->ima_hash->length)
    
    sizeof() yields size_t, so the usual arithmetic conversions promote
    the whole left-hand side to unsigned 64-bit before the subtraction
    runs. For a truncated xattr this underflows instead of going negative:
    a 1-byte IMA_XATTR_DIGEST_NG xattr (xattr_len == 1, hash_start == 1)
    turns "1 - 1 - 1" into SIZE_MAX, which is trivially >= ima_hash->length.
    The check then passes and the following memcmp() reads
    iint->ima_hash->length bytes starting past the end of the buffer
    vfs_getxattr_alloc() allocated for it.
    
    Nothing upstream clamps xattr_len back into a safe range first:
    ima_get_hash_algo() only special-cases xattr_len < 2 to pick a default
    algorithm, and evm_verifyxattr() returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN rather than
    failing when no HMAC key is loaded, so a truncated security.ima value
    reaches the length check as-is.
    
    Rewrite the comparison so every operand stays a signed int and no
    implicit conversion to size_t can occur.

Input: evdev - fix information leak in evdev_pass_values() [+ + +]

    Input: evdev - fix information leak in evdev_pass_values()
    
    commit 90f305f2c7a30257c683e13f4bf7c798eea992a0 upstream.
    
    In evdev_pass_values(), the input_event structure is allocated on the
    kernel stack and populated field-by-field. However, it is never fully
    initialized. On architectures where struct input_event contains explicit
    or implicit padding (such as the 32-bit __pad field on SPARC64), these
    padding bytes are left uninitialized.
    
    When this event structure is subsequently passed to the client buffer
    and later copied to userspace, the uninitialized padding bytes leak
    kernel stack memory, potentially exposing sensitive information.
    
    Similar issues exist in __evdev_queue_syn_dropped and __pass_event.
    
    Fix this by explicitly zeroing the entire event structure with memset()
    before populating its fields. This ensures all padding bytes are cleared
    before the data crosses the security boundary.

    Input: evdev - sanitize event type index when fetching event masks
    
    commit 3abd29c61d2ef37c4102cf755b18be53bb9dbea6 upstream.
    
    The user-supplied event type index passed to EVIOCGMASK / EVIOCSMASK
    ioctls is used to index the static counts array in evdev_get_mask_cnt()
    and client evmasks array in evdev_get_mask().
    
    While the event type is architecturally bounded by EV_CNT, speculative
    execution may mispredict bounds checks and perform out-of-bounds loads.
    
    Sanitize the event type index in evdev_get_mask_cnt() branchlessly using
    array_index_mask_nospec(). This clamps the index to 0 for safe array
    access and forces the returned count to 0 speculatively when the index
    is out of bounds.
    
    We do not need additional array_index_nospec() calls in evdev_get_mask()
    because evdev_get_mask_cnt() speculatively forces the count (and
    resulting xfer_size) to 0 for out-of-bounds types, preventing any
    speculative memory access to client evmasks array.

    ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip6ip6_err()
    
    commit f803c086399da277b5d0ff36a107d0f162751800 upstream.
    
    ip6ip6_err() clones an outer IPv6 ICMP error skb, pulls it to the
    quoted inner IPv6 packet, and then passes the clone to icmpv6_send().
    The clone still carries the outer packet's inet6_skb_parm in skb->cb.
    
    If the outer packet had a Home Address Option, IP6CB(skb2)->dsthao
    remains non-zero after skb_pull(). icmpv6_send() later calls
    mip6_addr_swap(), which uses that stale dsthao offset against the quoted
    inner packet. A malformed inner destination-options header can then make
    the HAO lookup and address swap run past the end of the quoted packet
    and corrupt skb_shared_info.
    
    Clear skb2->cb[] before pulling the quoted inner IPv6 packet so the
    reply path does not reuse metadata left by the outer IPv6 stack.

ipv4: Fix fib_nlmsg_size() for RTA_VIA nexthops [+ + +]

    ipv4: Fix fib_nlmsg_size() for RTA_VIA nexthops
    
    commit 4ff9548d84945d2cbf9e4c207288063a200ea397 upstream.
    
    fib_nlmsg_size() still estimates nexthop space as if every gateway is
    encoded as an IPv4 RTA_GATEWAY attribute. IPv4 routes can also carry an
    IPv6 gateway, which fib_nexthop_info() dumps as RTA_VIA.
    
    As a result, route notifications can allocate an skb that is too small.
    fib_dump_info() then fails with -EMSGSIZE and rtmsg_fib() hits the
    WARN_ON() that marks such failures as a fib_nlmsg_size() bug. With
    panic_on_warn set, this becomes a kernel panic.
    
    Mirror the actual nexthop dump layout in fib_nlmsg_size(): account for
    IPv6 nexthop gateways dumped as RTA_VIA, for the no-header rtnexthop
    layout used inside RTA_MULTIPATH, and for RTA_FLOW only when it is
    actually present.

    commit bc5bde9ce3cc36502839dfe98e068f7303a50982 upstream.
    
    fib_nhc_update_mtu() walks the nexthop exception table under RTNL, but
    RTNL does not serialize this walk with PMTU exception updates. The walk
    uses rcu_dereference_protected() with a constant true condition without
    holding fnhe_lock.
    
    The following interleaving can therefore occur:

    The same walk updates fnhe_pmtu and fnhe_mtu_locked. These fields form a
    pair and other writers serialize them with fnhe_lock. RCU alone prevents
    reclamation, but would still allow concurrent writers to leave a mixed
    pair.
    
    Walk the table under RCU and acquire fnhe_lock only while updating each
    exception. RCU keeps the current entry alive while the short critical
    section serializes its paired PMTU fields. This avoids holding the global
    lock while scanning all 2048 buckets for every nexthop.

Date:   Thu Jul 30 11:52:32 2026 +0800

    ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
    
    commit d1ad8fb2ac6a1afb71dc22d9ae8efb4dda96c824 upstream.
    
    rt6_route_rcv() validates the Route Information option (RFC 4191) length
    against the prefix length, but both checks are off by one.
    
    rinfo->length is the ND option length in units of 8 octets and it
    *includes* the 8-byte option header, so an option carrying N bytes of
    prefix has length == 1 + N/8.  RFC 4191 section 2.3 requires length 3
    when Prefix Length is greater than 64, and 2 or 3 when it is greater
    than 0.  The code accepts length >= 2 and length >= 1 respectively.
    
    ipv6_addr_prefix() then copies prefix_len/8 bytes out of rinfo->prefix,
    so a Router Advertisement with (prefix_len=128, length=2) or
    (prefix_len=64, length=1) makes the kernel read up to 8 bytes past the
    end of the option.  Those bytes end up in the prefix of the route that
    gets installed, so they are visible to userspace:
    
      # RA with a Route Information option (prefix_len=128, length=2)
      # followed by a source link-layer address option, 01 01 de ad be ef ca fe
      $ ip -6 route show
      2001:db8:dead:beef:101:dead:beef:cafe via fe80::1234 dev veth0 proto ra
                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the next option, read out of bounds
    
    When the Route Information option is the last one in the packet, those
    eight bytes come from the skb tail room instead.
    
    Reject the option lengths RFC 4191 does not allow.

    ipv6: prevent in6_dev_get() from resurrecting inet6_dev
    
    commit 0e243671bc7b8eaf00f83dd2f4367436dc0cff98 upstream.
    
    in6_dev_get() reads dev->ip6_ptr under RCU and then unconditionally
    increments its refcount. Device teardown can clear the pointer and drop
    the last reference between these operations. The increment then
    resurrects an object whose RCU free has already been queued, so callers
    can use it after it is freed.
    
    Use refcount_inc_not_zero() and return NULL when the object has already
    reached zero. RCU keeps the memory accessible through the attempted
    reference acquisition, and a successful increment pins the object for
    the caller.
    
    An independent run on the exact unpatched 6f5156d7a31a (v7.2-rc3)
    kernel reproduced the invalid reference acquisition as UID 1000:
    
      refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
      ip6_mc_source+0xef4/0x17e0
    
    It was followed by the corresponding reference underflow in
    ip6_mc_source(). The supplied trace from the same unpatched revision
    additionally shows the access after the RCU read-side section ends:

ipvs: clear IPv4 options after rebasing tunnel ICMP errors [+ + +]
Author: Kyle Zeng <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Aug 4 06:10:55 2026 +0000

    ipvs: clear IPv4 options after rebasing tunnel ICMP errors
    
    commit e0ba936287dfe9783426aac27e5fd76fe35b38c9 upstream.
    
    ip_vs_in_icmp() rebases an skb from the outer ICMP packet to the
    quoted original request before passing it to icmp_send(). However,
    IPCB(skb)->opt still describes the outer IPv4 header.
    
    A timestamp option in the outer header can therefore leave an offset
    that points into the quoted transport header after the rebase.
    __ip_options_echo() treats a byte at that stale location as the option
    length and copies it into the fixed-size option storage on the
    __icmp_send() stack, causing a stack out-of-bounds write.
    
    Clear the stale option metadata after resetting the network header.
    Keep the remaining control block fields, including the ingress
    interface used by the ICMP response path.

ipvs: properly update the overload flag on dest edit [+ + +]

    ipvs: properly update the overload flag on dest edit
    
    commit 8f843441c4e7eae8ea83491e8c203c2b192edcf5 upstream.
    
    The upper/lower connection thresholds for dest can be changed,
    so use ip_vs_dest_update_overload() to properly update the
    dest overload flag.
    
    The thresholds were not limited, fit them in the 0 .. INT_MAX
    range as already done in ipvsadm.
    
    As the thresholds are also read when connections are created
    and expired, use WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE to access them.
    
    As the lower threshold is optional, use (u - (u >> 2)) to
    calculate the 75% default value based on the upper threshold
    by preserving the integer rounding, as suggested by Yizhou Zhao.
    
    Trigger flag update when totalconns reaches one of the
    thresholds and use dst_lock to serialize the updating.

ipvs: return the csum validation for forward hook [+ + +]

    ipvs: return the csum validation for forward hook
    
    [ Upstream commit 99609cb0aa789c8d071050ce8579989551882cc6 ]
    
    Sashiko notes that playing games with the skb dst and rt
    flags instead of providing hooknum is not a good idea
    when validating the checksums.
    
    Also, skipping checksum validation for FORWARD packets
    risk silent data corruption, even if the only user is
    the FTP-CMD packets coming from the real server.
    
    Sashiko also noticed that by using common checksum
    helper in the previous commit we actually fixed old bug
    where the TCP/UDP checksum for IPv6 on CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
    was not validated correctly.

ipvs: stop estimator after disabled calc phase [+ + +]

Date:   Wed Jul 29 21:56:59 2026 +0800

    ipvs: stop estimator after disabled calc phase
    
    commit 558f67f1340f803a346ecd14a69c49653111c5f4 upstream.
    
    IPVS estimator kthread 0 starts with zeroed chain and tick limits until
    its initial calculation phase completes. If network namespace teardown
    clears ipvs->enable during that phase, ip_vs_est_calc_phase() can return
    without installing positive limits.
    
    The kthread can then continue into its main loop and drain
    est_temp_list with zero chain_max, tick_max and est_max_count values.
    Each enqueue consumes one available tick row, but est_count never
    reaches the zero est_max_count value. After all rows are consumed, the
    row lookup returns IPVS_EST_NTICKS and ip_vs_enqueue_estimator() writes
    past the ticks and tick_len arrays.
    
    Exit kthread 0 after the calculation phase if the kthread is stopping or
    IPVS has been disabled. That keeps temporary estimators from being
    drained after the limits failed to initialize.
    
    Estimator kthreads can now self-exit before teardown or reload stops
    kd->task. Keep an extra task reference after creation and release it
    with kthread_stop_put(), so kd->task remains valid until the stop paths
    consume that reference.

    KVM: s390: pci: Fix aisb calculation
    
    [ Upstream commit 0cfe660559e857d7c00ab86c73e4510ce069086f ]
    
    The current implementation of aisb calculation will erroneously index
    via an unsigned long * as well as multiply by 8B for every 64-bits in
    the offset; only one or the other is required.  This throws off aisb
    calculations once the number of devices exceeds 64, and can result
    in out-of-bounds access as well as failure to indicate summary bits
    associated with those devices in guests.
    
    Fix this by converting to a physical address before applying the
    offset, as is already done in arch/s390/pci/pci_irq.c.

    KVM: s390: pci: Fix memory accounting for pinned/unpinned pages
    
    [ Upstream commit 36f6999ecde3976731a8bfc0b8e667da6f593069 ]
    
    The account_mem() and unaccount_mem() functions call get_uid() which
    increments the reference count of struct user_struct on every invocation.
    But we don't decrement the count by calling free_uid(). It also
    accounted/unaccounted the pages against the current->mm. But its possible
    the unaccount_mem() can be called from a different process context than the
    one that originally pinned the pages.
    
    Let's fix this by storing the pinning process user_struct and mm_struct
    when accounting for pinned pages, and subsequently free these resources
    when the pages are unpinned.

    [ Upstream commit 5580c9858f1e00f60191eb09c3add359836d60b6 ]
    
    Currently if kvm_zpci_set_airq() fails, kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable() returns
    the error code but doesn't do any resource cleanup thus leaking resources.
    Fix this by cleaning up all the resources such as the GAITE, AIBV, AISB and
    unpinning any pinned pages. While at it, remove dead code that stored FIB
    values that were never referenced.
    
    As part of the cleanup, we are also holding the aift_lock a bit longer, as
    we hold the lock while executing the MPCIFC instruction. Though this is not
    strictly necessary, it means we don't have to drop and re-acquire in the
    error case.

KVM: x86/mmu: WARN and clear role.invalid when creating a child shadow page [+ + +]

    KVM: x86/mmu: WARN and clear role.invalid when creating a child shadow page
    
    commit 5ec42d57655c690234c14aece6dd3f209778c1d8 upstream.
    
    Explicitly clear role.invalid when deriving a child shadow page's role from
    its parent to harden against bugs elsewhere in KVM, as violating KVM's
    invariant that invalid pages are NOT on the list of active MMU pages leads
    to use-after-free due to __kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() using list_add()
    instead of list_move() when processing an invalid shadow page, i.e. makes a
    bad situation far worse.
    
    Yell loudly if the parent is invalid, as it means KVM has missed a validity
    check, i.e. KVM is attempting to map memory using an invalid/obsolete root,
    but continue on as the child is otherwise still a valid shadow page.

    mac802154: fix netdev use-after-free in beacon worker
    
    commit 5f26a690e8efa54315e4922368daf54e0b8f5515 upstream.
    
    mac802154_beacon_worker() reads local->beacon_req under RCU and derives
    the sub-interface from the request, but then drops the RCU read lock and
    continues to use both sdata and the embedded wpan_dev.
    
    mac802154_stop_beacons_locked() cancels only pending beacon work, clears
    local->beacon_req and frees the request.  A beacon worker that is already
    running can therefore continue after interface teardown and dereference
    the freed netdev private area.
    
    The scan worker already pins the netdev before leaving RCU.  Apply the
    same lifetime rule to the beacon worker: take a netdev reference while
    the request is still protected by RCU, and release it on all paths that
    continue after the reference is acquired.

misc: fastrpc: Remove buffer from list prior to unmap operation [+ + +]
Author: Ekansh Gupta <[email protected]>
Date:   Fri Jul 24 23:33:38 2026 +0100

    misc: fastrpc: Remove buffer from list prior to unmap operation
    
    commit 6102ceb4eab845743ee57acd3863fbd06e93c927 upstream.
    
    fastrpc_req_munmap_impl() is called to unmap any buffer. The buffer is
    getting removed from the list after it is unmapped from DSP. This can
    create potential race conditions if multiple threads invoke unmap
    concurrently, where one thread may remove the entry from the list while
    another thread's unmap operation is still ongoing.
    
    Fix this by removing the buffer entry from the list before calling the
    unmap operation. If the unmap fails, the entry is re-added to the list
    so that userspace can retry the unmap, or alternatively, the buffer
    will be cleaned up during device release when the DSP process is torn
    down and all DSP-side mappings are freed along with remaining buffers
    in the list.

misc: fastrpc: take fl->lock when moving mmaps on interrupted invoke [+ + +]

    misc: fastrpc: take fl->lock when moving mmaps on interrupted invoke
    
    commit b85a0e91d7d6cd06a53c881a46f749cfcef416a2 upstream.
    
    When an invoke is interrupted by a signal,
    wait_for_completion_interruptible() returns -ERESTARTSYS and
    fastrpc_internal_invoke() moves every buffer from fl->mmaps onto
    cctx->invoke_interrupted_mmaps. This list_del()/list_add_tail() walk
    runs without holding fl->lock, the lock that serialises fl->mmaps in
    fastrpc_req_mmap() and fastrpc_req_munmap() everywhere else.
    
    Take fl->lock around the move, matching every other fl->mmaps accessor.

net/atm: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in vcc_setsockopt() [+ + +]

Date:   Wed Aug 5 13:15:08 2026 +0000

    net/atm: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in vcc_setsockopt()
    
    [ Upstream commit d0c80dbb970439bd2eeb0e5effff8c16a5f4e1e3 ]
    
    vcc_setsockopt() contained an ineffective optlen check:
      if (__SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) && optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname))
          return -EINVAL;
    
    If __SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) evaluated to false (e.g. if the caller
    passed a mismatched level), the length check optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname)
    was short-circuited and bypassed. Execution then fell through to switch(optname),
    calling copy_from_sockptr() assuming optval contained sufficient space.
    
    Furthermore, even if level matched, a cgroup BPF setsockopt filter could shrink
    optlen after entry. Because copy_from_sockptr() on kernel pointers uses memcpy(),
    this leads to a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read when optlen is smaller than the
    expected structure size.
    
    Fix this by using copy_safe_from_sockptr(), which unconditionally validates
    that optlen is at least the expected size before copying. Also change the local
    'value' variable type from 'unsigned long' to 'int' so that SO_SETCLP matches
    its sizeof(int) ABI encoding on 64-bit systems.

    [ Upstream commit af39eb111ce6b5eba9c08513b62c4868eb7e7fd5 ]
    
    Tracer creation can fail by returning either NULL or ERR_PTR.
    The return value is stored without a check on the device, and users
    treat ERR_PTR and NULL the same way.
    This also causes a crash in the core dump logic, which is missing the
    ERR_PTR check and ends up dereferencing it, as shown in the trace below.
    
    Switch tracer creation to return NULL on failure only, so callers only
    need a single NULL check.

net/mlx5e: TC, Check if flow is PEER before acquiring devcom lock [+ + +]

    net/mlx5e: TC, Check if flow is PEER before acquiring devcom lock
    
    [ Upstream commit 6ddfba2ea98db21b001e0e5c472499156224650c ]
    
    In case __mlx5e_add_fdb_flow() fails in lower levels, the flow is
    deleted via mlx5e_tc_del_flow(), and mlx5e_tc_del_flow() is acquiring
    ESW devcom lock without condition. In addition, in case of peer_flow,
    __mlx5e_add_fdb_flow() is called while holding ESW devcom comp lock.
    This results in an AA deadlock.
    
    To fix this, introduce a new PEER flag that is set on flows created as
    peer flows (the duplicate flows on peer devices), and check it in
    mlx5e_tc_del_flow() before acquiring ESW devcom lock.

net/ncsi: fix heap OOB read in NCSI_CMD_SEND_CMD payload length [+ + +]

Date:   Mon Aug 3 12:36:18 2026 +0800

    net/ncsi: fix heap OOB read in NCSI_CMD_SEND_CMD payload length
    
    [ Upstream commit afa58b7384913c8773d837acdb07b035690ec5d2 ]
    
    ncsi_send_cmd_nl() takes the number of bytes to copy from the
    attacker-controlled ncsi_pkt_hdr.length field of the in-band packet
    header, while the source buffer is the NCSI_ATTR_DATA netlink
    attribute whose readable size is nla_len() - sizeof(ncsi_pkt_hdr).
    The two length sources are never cross-checked: only
    nla_len() >= sizeof(struct ncsi_pkt_hdr) is enforced.
    
    With hdr->length set larger than the attribute payload (up to 65535
    against at most 2032 readable bytes), ncsi_cmd_handler_oem() copies
    past the end of the netlink attribute buffer with unsafe_memcpy(),
    leaking up to ~64KB of kernel heap memory into the transmitted NCSI
    command packet. The destination skb is sized by the declared payload,
    so the write side does not overflow - this is a pure OOB read /
    information leak, reachable with CAP_NET_ADMIN on systems with a
    registered NCSI device (e.g. OpenBMC on Aspeed BMC SoCs, where
    NET_NCSI=y is standard).
    
    Reject commands whose declared payload extends past the end of the
    data attribute.
    
    The issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at Tencent
    Yunding Lab.

    When a packet arrives on an ARPHRD_NONE device (e.g. TUN),
    ovs_flow_key_extract() trusts the user-provided skb->protocol field: if
    it is ETH_P_TEB, the packet is classified as MAC_PROTO_ETHERNET and
    key_extract() is called without ensuring the skb has ETH_HLEN (14) bytes
    of linear data. key_extract() unconditionally pulls 2 * ETH_ALEN bytes
    for MAC addresses and parse_ethertype() pulls 2 more, either of which
    triggers a kernel BUG in __skb_pull() when the linear area is too small.

net/packet: reset the MAC header on the packet-socket transmit path [+ + +]
Author: Doruk Tan Ozturk <[email protected]>
Date:   Fri Jul 24 16:40:15 2026 +0200

    net/packet: reset the MAC header on the packet-socket transmit path
    
    commit c2707480cfbf19c7619acc9c089d17f20869821f upstream.
    
    packet_parse_headers() resets the MAC header only for a SOCK_RAW frame
    whose socket did not bind a protocol. A protocol-bound SOCK_RAW socket,
    any SOCK_DGRAM frame, and the legacy SOCK_PACKET path therefore leave
    skb->mac_header unset here.
    
    For frames sent via __dev_queue_xmit() this is harmless: it resets the
    MAC header unconditionally. But the packet-socket PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS
    path uses dev_direct_xmit(), which does not, so the frame reaches
    ndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset. A driver that reads
    eth_hdr(skb) on transmit then dereferences skb->head + (u16)~0, an
    out-of-bounds access ~64 KiB past the head -- the same class fixed for
    one consumer in commit f5089008f90c ("macsec: do not read an unset MAC
    header in macsec_encrypt()").
    
    packet_parse_headers() runs only on the transmit path, where skb->data
    points at the start of the L2 header for every packet-socket type
    regardless of its length: SOCK_RAW and SOCK_PACKET carry a user-supplied
    header and SOCK_DGRAM has one built by dev_hard_header(). Reset the MAC
    header unconditionally, mirroring __dev_queue_xmit(), so the frame is
    anchored on the bypass path too.
    
    Found by 0sec (https://0sec.ai) using automated source analysis;
    verified against source and matched to the macsec KASAN report in
    f5089008f90c. Compile-tested.

net/sched: act_ct: fix sk_buff leak when the header checks reject a packet [+ + +]
Author: Hyunjung Ko <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Aug 6 19:12:34 2026 +0900

    net/sched: act_ct: fix sk_buff leak when the header checks reject a packet
    
    commit 8a7ed561671aa6a911a2de99e59ef670a4d0b1df upstream.
    
    tcf_ct_handle_fragments() runs its header sanity checks before handing
    anything to the defragmentation engine:
    
            if (family == NFPROTO_IPV4)
                    err = tcf_ct_ipv4_is_fragment(skb, &frag);
            else
                    err = tcf_ct_ipv6_is_fragment(skb, &frag);
            if (err || !frag)
                    return err;
    
    tcf_ct_ipv4_is_fragment() returns -EINVAL or -ENOMEM;
    tcf_ct_ipv6_is_fragment() adds -EPROTO when ipv6_find_hdr() fails. None of
    them frees or queues the skb, so on that path the caller still owns it.
    
    tcf_ct_act() however funnels every non-zero return into the
    ownership-transfer exit:
    
            err = tcf_ct_handle_fragments(net, skb, family, p->zone, &defrag);
            if (err)
                    goto out_frag;
            ...
    out_frag:
            if (err != -EINPROGRESS)
                    tcf_action_inc_drop_qstats(&c->common);
            return TC_ACT_CONSUMED;
    
    TC_ACT_CONSUMED means the action took ownership of the skb, so no caller
    frees it - sch_handle_ingress(), sch_handle_egress() and
    tcf_qevent_handle() all deliberately skip the free for that verdict. The
    skb is therefore orphaned: one sk_buff plus its data buffer is leaked per
    malformed packet, unbounded. Note the drop counter is already incremented
    for these errors, so the statistics claim a drop that never happens.
    
    Three different ownership states reach out_frag: today - the skb may be
    queued by the defrag engine (-EINPROGRESS), already freed by

    header with nexthdr = 0 (hop-by-hop) and nothing after it, on a
    clsact ingress chain with "action ct". kmemleak reports one leaked
    232-byte skbuff_head_cache object plus its 704-byte data buffer per
    packet; with this patch it reports none.

net/sched: act_gact, act_police: range check the fallback control action [+ + +]
Author: Hyunjung Ko <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Aug 6 19:12:52 2026 +0900

    net/sched: act_gact, act_police: range check the fallback control action
    
    commit 883b56ae58fe657d8497806c7059646e9ba6dbd0 upstream.
    
    tcf_action_check_ctrlact() range checks the primary control action:
    
            if (!opcode)
                    ret = action > TC_ACT_VALUE_MAX ? -EINVAL : 0;
    
    TC_ACT_VALUE_MAX is TC_ACT_TRAP, so kernel-internal verdicts above it
    cannot be set that way. But act_gact and act_police each carry a second,
    independent control action supplied by user space that never reaches that
    helper - TCA_GACT_PROB.paction and TCA_POLICE_RESULT. Both only reject
    TC_ACT_GOTO_CHAIN, so any other value is stored verbatim and returned
    verbatim from the action.
    
    In particular user space can store TC_ACT_CONSUMED, which is
    TC_ACT_VALUE_MAX + 1 and is deliberately not part of the UAPI value
    range. That verdict tells every caller the action took ownership of the
    skb, so nobody frees it: sch_handle_ingress(), sch_handle_egress() and
    tcf_qevent_handle() all deliberately skip the free for it. The result is
    one leaked sk_buff plus its data buffer per packet traversing the filter,
    unbounded, for all traffic on the chain including kernel-generated
    packets.
    
    Both are trivially deterministic. act_gact clamps tcfg_pval to >= 1, so
    with pval = 1 gact_determ() returns the fallback for every packet.
    act_police has no mandatory rate, so rate = 0 leaves tcfp_mtu = ~0 and
    tcf_police_mtu_check() always passes.
    
    TC_ACT_CONSUMED was added by commit 720f22fed81b ("net: sched: refactor
    reinsert action"), after both goto-chain guards were written:
    commit 9469f375ab09 ("net/sched: act_gact: disallow 'goto chain' on
    fallback control action") and
    commit c08f5ed5d625 ("net/sched: act_police: disallow 'goto chain' on
    fallback control action"). Neither guard was widened when the new
    verdict appeared.
    
    Factor the existing range test out of tcf_action_check_ctrlact() as
    tcf_action_valid() and apply it to both fallbacks. The helper cannot call
    tcf_action_check_ctrlact() directly because that also allocates a
    goto_chain, which is exactly what these two sites must not do.
    
    Reproduced on v7.2-rc6: kmemleak reports one leaked 232-byte
    skbuff_head_cache object plus its 704-byte data buffer per packet. With
    this patch both configurations are rejected with -EINVAL and kmemleak
    reports none.

net/sched: cls_api: Always acquire rtnl_lock when destroying locked classifiers [+ + +]
Author: Jamal Hadi Salim <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Aug 1 08:56:32 2026 -0400

    net/sched: cls_api: Always acquire rtnl_lock when destroying locked classifiers
    
    [ Upstream commit a347304b2ca1a5377d5bd2d8a72e4b4f12afe648 ]
    
    Another challenge with unlocked filters.
    There is a short window in tc_new_tfilter where a tcf_proto can be found
    and briefly referenced by a totally unrelated, unlocked classifier's request
    and cause a race.
    
    Feng created a poc which created this race with two threads, one creating a
    u32 filter and other a flower filter in the same chain/prio:
    
    1. Both threads enter tc_new_tfilter, both find the chain empty, both
       drop filter_chain_lock
    2. u32 finishes tcf_proto_create("u32") first, calls
       tcf_chain_tp_insert_unique() -> inserts u32_tp into the chain
    3. flower finishes tcf_proto_create("flower") later, calls
       tcf_chain_tp_insert_unique() -> tcf_chain_tp_find() now sees u32_tp
       already there, takes a reference on it, destroys flower's own tp_new
       and returns u32_tp to the caller.
    
    Flower then hits the kind mismatch check (because it requested for kind
    "flower" but tp->ops->kind is "u32") and goes through the errout path
    which calls tcf_proto_put() on u32_tp. If the u32 thread has already
    gone through its own errout (its change() call failed on the PoC's empty
    options) and dropped its create and insert refs, flower's put is the
    last one and drops u32_tp's refcnt to zero.
    
    At this point tp->ops->destroy() runs in a context that never took
    rtnl_lock. When that happens, it might cause a UAF like the following
    (illustrated by the PoC):
    
    [  +0.000710] BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in u32_init (net/sched/cls_u32.c:393)

       tcf_proto_put (net/sched/cls_api.c:459)
       tc_new_tfilter (net/sched/cls_api.c:2459)
    
    Fix this by having tcf_proto_destroy() take rtnl_lock around
    tp->ops->destroy() for locked classifiers whenever rtnl is not held.
    
    To explain why I used a temp variable "not_lockless" I'd like to point to a
    semi-related note on rtnl_held vs TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED (adding here
    for future cleanup if deemed necessary):
    The rtnl_held parameter and the TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED flag are
    redundant sources of truth for whether rtnl_lock is held. Among the nine
    classifier destroy(..rtnl_held..) callbacks, only flower consults the
    rtnl_held parameter which it propagates to tc_setup_cb_destroy()
    and tc_setup_cb_call(). The other eight (u32, flow, bpf, cgroup, route, basic,
    fw, mall) ignore it entirely;-> those that call tc_setup_cb_destroy()
    (u32, bpf, mall) hardcode true always instead of forwarding the parameter.
    
    A future cleanup should remove the rtnl_held parameter from the destroy callback
    signature entirely and have callers rely solely on their knowledge whether
    they are running in an unlocked context.

net/sched: cls_route: fix fastmap use-after-free on filter [+ + +]
Author: Jamal Hadi Salim <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Jul 29 05:44:11 2026 -0400

    net/sched: cls_route: fix fastmap use-after-free on filter
    
    [ Upstream commit 47d7f7051253bdc02b1d245d87e38f16d31a74df ]
    
    The route4 classifier maintains a 16-slot fastmap cache that stores raw
    struct route4_filter pointers indexed by (id, iif). The reader
    (route4_classify) populates this cache via route4_set_fastmap() for every
    classified packet that hits a filter. The writer (route4_delete,
    route4_change) clears the cache via route4_reset_fastmap() before
    RCU-deferred kfree of the filter.
    
    This creates a UAF race:
     1. Reader walks the RCU-protected bucket chain, finds filter f
     2. Writer unlinks f, calls route4_reset_fastmap(), then tcf_queue_work()
     3. Reader calls route4_set_fastmap() and writes f into the cache
        *after* the writer's reset, caching a pointer about to be freed
     4. After the RCU grace period, kfree(f) executes
     5. Next classified packet on the same (id, iif) tuple hits the stale
        fastmap entry and reads f->res from freed memory
    
    Reproduced with an mdelay(100) accelerator in route4_set_fastmap() and a
    concurrent add/delete stress test (provided by both zdi and Santosh).
    Both triggered KASAN slab-use-after-free reports in the route4 fastmap
    paths.
    
    Fix:
    Introduce a per-filter boolean dying flag to suppress stale fastmap
    republishing by in-flight readers.

    net/sched: reject overly deep qdisc hierarchies
    
    commit dedd34b0f2310e28c5f6d4875cfbf4b7ed821c01 upstream.
    
    Deep qdisc hierarchies can lead to excessive recursion in qdisc tree
    walkers and exhaust the kernel stack. The existing loop check does not
    cover the create-and-graft path, so a hierarchy can still be extended by
    creating a new child qdisc below an already deep parent.
    
    Store the hierarchy depth in struct Qdisc and update it when qdiscs are
    grafted. Reject new child qdiscs once the parent is already at the maximum
    allowed depth.

    [ Upstream commit 2a33516f9ef59ad11844d4fc152f889449b5daf3 ]
    
    The sch_cake ACK filter parses packets to find the TCP header and filter
    duplicated ACKs if the flow is backlogged. The parsing code contains a
    WARN_ON(1) which can be triggered by a malformed IP header in certain
    cases. Depending on the system configuration, this leads either to
    either spamming dmesg with warnings, or a panic if panic_on_warn is set.
    
    The code already correctly skips the offending packet in the branch that
    triggers the warning, so the WARN_ON itself doesn't really serve any
    purpose. So just drop it altogether to avoid the inconvenient side
    effects.

net/smc: fix qentry overwrite for CONFIRM_LINK and ADD_LINK_CONT in smc_llc_event_handler() [+ + +]

    net/smc: fix qentry overwrite for CONFIRM_LINK and ADD_LINK_CONT in smc_llc_event_handler()
    
    [ Upstream commit 976245094925bab9bc39366b2e9ab44ffcde61d0 ]
    
    The SMC_LLC_CONFIRM_LINK / SMC_LLC_ADD_LINK_CONT branch in
    smc_llc_event_handler() stores an incoming qentry into the local LLC flow
    without first checking whether a qentry is already pending. If a malicious or
    buggy peer sends a second CONFIRM_LINK or ADD_LINK_CONT request while a flow is
    active and flow->qentry is already set, smc_llc_flow_qentry_set() overwrites the
    pointer without freeing the previous allocation, leaking one kmalloc-96 object
    per spurious message.
    
    The sibling SMC_LLC_DELETE_LINK branch already has the correct !flow->qentry
    guard. Apply the same guard to the CONFIRM_LINK/ADD_LINK_CONT branch so that a
    duplicate message when qentry is already occupied falls through to break and is
    freed by the kfree(qentry) at the out: label, rather than silently leaking the
    existing allocation.
    
    The response direction (smc_llc_rx_response()) is unaffected: it already guards
    with flow->qentry at the equivalent site and drops duplicate responses
    correctly.

net/smc: fix TOCTOU race between smc_listen_out() and listener close [+ + +]

    net/smc: fix TOCTOU race between smc_listen_out() and listener close
    
    [ Upstream commit 185a4caeecabc150106deda1da170b09f2ad803f ]
    
    smc_listen_out() reads lsmc->sk.sk_state without the listener lock,
    then acquires lock_sock_nested() only after the check passes. This
    opens a window where smc_close_active() can transition the listener
    to SMC_CLOSED, call smc_close_cleanup_listen() to drain the accept
    queue, and release the lock, all between the lockless read and the
    delayed lock acquisition:
    
      smc_listen_work (smc_hs_wq)          smc_close_active()
      -------------------------------      -------------------------
      release_sock(child)
      if (sk_state == SMC_LISTEN) TRUE
                                            lock_sock(listener)
                                            sk_state = SMC_CLOSED
                                            smc_close_cleanup_listen()
                                            release_sock(listener)

      lock_sock_nested(listener)
      smc_accept_enqueue(listener, child) /* child enqueued on dead listener */
    
    smc_close_active() flushes only tcp_listen_work. Work items already
    dispatched onto smc_hs_wq for the CLC handshake continue running
    unguarded. smc_accept_enqueue() takes a sock_hold() on the child that
    is never released, so the child smc_sock, its clcsock, and the
    reference all leak. A remote peer that opens TCP connections while the
    server calls close() can exhaust kernel memory.
    
    Move lock_sock_nested() to before the sk_state check so that the test
    and the enqueue are atomic under the listener lock.

net/tcp: Prepare tcp_md5sig_pool for TCP-AO [+ + +]

Date:   Mon Oct 23 20:21:53 2023 +0100

    net/tcp: Prepare tcp_md5sig_pool for TCP-AO
    
    [ Upstream commit 8c73b26315aadb82218360d0a9a05e515f6e4118 ]
    
    TCP-AO, similarly to TCP-MD5, needs to allocate tfms on a slow-path,
    which is setsockopt() and use crypto ahash requests on fast paths,
    which are RX/TX softirqs. Also, it needs a temporary/scratch buffer
    for preparing the hash.
    
    Rework tcp_md5sig_pool in order to support other hashing algorithms
    than MD5. It will make it possible to share pre-allocated crypto_ahash
    descriptors and scratch area between all TCP hash users.
    
    Internally tcp_sigpool calls crypto_clone_ahash() API over pre-allocated
    crypto ahash tfm. Kudos to Herbert, who provided this new crypto API.
    
    I was a little concerned over GFP_ATOMIC allocations of ahash and
    crypto_request in RX/TX (see tcp_sigpool_start()), so I benchmarked both
    "backends" with different algorithms, using patched version of iperf3[2].
    On my laptop with i7-7600U @ 2.80GHz:
    
                             clone-tfm                per-CPU-requests
    TCP-MD5                  2.25 Gbits/sec           2.30 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(sha1))       2.53 Gbits/sec           2.54 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(sha512))     1.67 Gbits/sec           1.64 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(sha384))     1.77 Gbits/sec           1.80 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(sha224))     1.29 Gbits/sec           1.30 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(sha3-512))    481 Mbits/sec            480 Mbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(md5))        2.07 Gbits/sec           2.12 Gbits/sec
    TCP-AO(hmac(rmd160))     1.01 Gbits/sec            995 Mbits/sec
    TCP-AO(cmac(aes128))     [not supporetd yet]      2.11 Gbits/sec
    
    So, it seems that my concerns don't have strong grounds and per-CPU
    crypto_request allocation can be dropped/removed from tcp_sigpool once
    ciphers get crypto_clone_ahash() support.

    net/tcp_sigpool: Fix some off by one bugs
    
    commit 74da77921333171766031ea213b11f1e650814f9 upstream.
    
    The "cpool_populated" variable is the number of elements in the cpool[]
    array that have been populated.  It is incremented in
    tcp_sigpool_alloc_ahash() every time we populate a new element.
    Unpopulated elements are NULL but if we have populated every element then
    this code will read one element beyond the end of the array.

    net/tcp_sigpool: Use kref_get_unless_zero()
    
    commit b901a4e276943f61e11ddb597a0abc1e7dfadf0f upstream.
    
    The freeing and re-allocation of algorithm are protected by cpool_mutex,
    so it doesn't fix an actual use-after-free, but avoids a deserved
    refcount_warn_saturate() warning.
    
    A trivial fix for the racy behavior.

    net: atlantic: free RX pages of consumed but not refilled buffers
    
    commit e8e7471ef686b6c002218fee9671cc61992ae01a upstream.
    
    aq_ring_rx_deinit() only walks [sw_head, sw_tail), the region posted to
    hardware. Since the page reuse strategy was added, a cleaned RX buffer
    keeps its page (and its DMA mapping) in the ring for reuse, and refill
    is batched: aq_ring_rx_fill() returns early until AQ_CFG_RX_REFILL_THRES
    slots are free. Slots that were consumed but not yet reposted therefore
    sit in the complementary [sw_tail, sw_head) gap with a live page, and
    the deinit walk never visits them: up to a refill batch worth of pages
    and DMA mappings leak on every interface down.
    
    Walk the whole ring instead and release whatever is still there. Also
    bail out if the buffer ring is already gone: a partial
    aq_ptp_ring_alloc() failure frees the ring but leaves aq_nic set, so
    aq_ptp_ring_deinit() still gets here on the unwind path.

net: atlantic: free stranded TX buffers on ring deinit [+ + +]

    net: atlantic: free stranded TX buffers on ring deinit
    
    commit 452636ea5410a96e02ebaaf80b21e3620b98e0dd upstream.
    
    aq_vec_deinit() drains the TX rings with a single aq_ring_tx_clean()
    call, which frees at most AQ_CFG_TX_CLEAN_BUDGET (256) descriptors and
    stops at hw_head, which no longer moves once aq_vec_stop() has stopped
    the hardware and NAPI. Completed descriptors beyond the budget and
    everything still posted in [hw_head, sw_tail) keep their skb or
    xdp_frame when the interface goes down: aq_vec_ring_free() then frees
    the buffer ring and the references are lost for good.
    
    Today this is a silent memory leak on every interface down under
    TX/XDP_TX load. With the conversion of the RX path to page_pool posted
    for net-next it becomes much more visible: XDP_TX frames carry fragment
    references on the RX ring's page_pool, so a single stranded frame keeps
    the pool's inflight count above zero forever. page_pool_destroy() then
    never completes, the pool is leaked together with its pages, and
    "page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown" is warned every 60
    seconds from that point on, on every ifdown, XDP detach or ring resize
    under XDP_TX load.
    
    Bring back aq_ring_tx_deinit() as it was before the removal and use it
    for teardown again, with one extension: TX rings can hold xdp_frames
    nowadays, so release those too. They are returned with
    xdp_return_frame() since this runs in process context.

    net: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire
    
    commit 63488dba65ef91373ef616575b32eb0eb21459f4 upstream.
    
    br_mrp_alloc_test_skb() builds MRP test frames on an skb from
    dev_alloc_skb(), which does not clear the linear data area.  On the MRA
    ring-role branch the sub-option TLV header is appended with
    
            sub_tlv = skb_put(skb, sizeof(*sub_tlv));
            sub_tlv->type = BR_MRP_SUB_TLV_HEADER_TEST_AUTO_MGR;
    
    so sub_tlv->length is never written, and the two trailing alignment bytes
    are appended with a bare skb_put() that does not clear them either.  The
    neighbouring oui and sub_opt regions are explicitly zeroed, so three
    uninitialised bytes are left in every MRA MRP_Test frame that goes out.
    
    Put the sub-option TLV header and the alignment padding in a single
    skb_put_zero(), which clears both.  The AUTO_MGR sub-TLV carries no
    payload, so the zeroed length field is already the value it should have.

    net: fec: do not release NULL pages when RX buffer allocation fails
    
    fec_enet_alloc_rxq_buffers() leaves the loop as soon as
    page_pool_dev_alloc_pages() returns NULL and jumps to err_alloc, which
    calls fec_enet_free_buffers(). That helper walks the whole ring and
    hands every rx_skb_info[i].page to page_pool_put_full_page(), including
    the entries the allocation loop never reached. Those are still NULL,
    because the queue was allocated with kzalloc(), and
    page_pool_put_full_page() dereferences the page, so an open that runs
    out of memory oopses instead of returning -ENOMEM:

    net: octeontx2-pf: Fix UB in shift operation
    
    commit 7e2d693af0d4c05bddccb3541a0aabd69f4cb244 upstream.
    
    In function otx2_get_egress_burst_cfg, when the parameter `burst` is
    255 and the max mantissa is 255 (0xFFULL), `burst_exp` is set to
    `ilog2(255) - 1`, which equals 6.
    
    This results in an unsigned wrap-around when calculating
    `(1ULL << (*burst_exp - 7))`, since `*burst_exp - 7` becomes -1,
    which makes the shift operand 0xFFFFFFFF. This value is greater than
    the width of the left operand.
    
    According to standard 6.5.7 p.3:
    "The type of the result is that of the promoted left operand.
    If the value of the right operand is negative or is greater than
    or equal to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior
    is undefined."
    
    Fix the off-by-one boundary condition.
    
    Add a WARN_ON(*burst_exp < 7) before the else branch as an
    explicit safeguard. This ensures that if max_mantissa ever changes
    in a way that reintroduces this condition, it will be immediately
    caught at runtime rather than silently triggering UB.

net: openvswitch: reallocate update replies for mismatched IDs [+ + +]

    net: openvswitch: reallocate update replies for mismatched IDs
    
    commit 5d1c224dd914579524a183a514c12b95095d12ce upstream.
    
    ovs_flow_cmd_new() preallocates the optional reply skb before it takes
    ovs_mutex and before it knows which existing flow will be updated.
    
    That is normally fine because the skb is sized from the request flow
    identifier.  That identifier also becomes the inserted flow's identifier.
    For updates, however, a request with a UFID may miss the UFID lookup and
    then fall back to the flow key lookup.  That lookup can legitimately find
    an existing key-identified flow.  UFIDs are optional and the flow key is
    the primary identifier.
    
    For echoed replies, ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() writes the matched flow's
    identifier, not the request identifier used for the preallocation.  A short
    request UFID can therefore leave too little room for the key identifier.
    The fill can then fail with -EMSGSIZE and hit the BUG_ON(error < 0) in the
    update path.
    
    Once the update target has been resolved, reallocate the reply skb if the
    matched flow needs a larger reply than the request identifier allowed.  Do
    this before replacing the actions so the request can still fail cleanly if
    the rare extra allocation fails.

net: remove CAP_SYS_RAWIO zero-padding in dev_validate_header [+ + +]

Date:   Wed Aug 5 20:57:27 2026 +0800

    net: remove CAP_SYS_RAWIO zero-padding in dev_validate_header
    
    commit 3b9a324e646d3657a8d9806dfbfe4f3e4066e882 upstream.
    
    dev_validate_header() reads dev->hard_header_len directly when
    zero-padding short link layer headers for CAP_SYS_RAWIO holders:
    
        if (capable(CAP_SYS_RAWIO)) {
            memset(ll_header + len, 0, dev->hard_header_len - len);
            return true;
        }
    
    Packet send paths call dev_validate_header() on skbs whose headroom was
    allocated from an earlier hard_header_len read. If the device is
    reconfigured so that dev->hard_header_len increases before validation,
    the memset writes past the reserved buffer, an out-of-bounds write.
    
    This out-of-bounds write is masked in some SOCK_RAW paths today because
    the same concurrent increase can first make skb_push() exceed the
    reserved headroom and trigger skb_under_panic(). Remove the zero-padding
    branch before making those hard_header_len reads consistent, so the
    snapshot fixes do not turn a loud panic into a silent overwrite.
    
    This path is only reached for variable length L2 protocols, where
    len < hard_header_len but len >= min_header_len. No remaining in-tree
    variable length L2 protocol implements header_ops->validate, and the
    CAP_SYS_RAWIO bypass that zero-pads and accepts short headers has no
    real value beyond allowing testing of intentionally malformed input.
    
    Drop the CAP_SYS_RAWIO branch. The remaining reads of
    dev->hard_header_len in dev_validate_header() are comparisons only and
    have no memory safety impact.

    In such cases, sk_family is not AF_INET/AF_INET6 and sk_mc_loop() falls

net: sched: make skip_sw actually skip software [+ + +]

    net: sched: make skip_sw actually skip software
    
    [ Upstream commit 047f340b36fc550c0fc6a8947fc0a1f8e429e9ab ]
    
    TC filters come in 3 variants:
    - no flag (try to process in hardware, but fallback to software))
    - skip_hw (do not process filter by hardware)
    - skip_sw (do not process filter by software)
    
    However skip_sw is implemented so that the skip_sw
    flag can first be checked, after it has been matched.
    
    IMHO it's common when using skip_sw, to use it on all rules.
    
    So if all filters in a block is skip_sw filters, then
    we can bail early, we can thus avoid having to match
    the filters, just to check for the skip_sw flag.
    
    This patch adds a bypass, for when only TC skip_sw rules
    are used. The bypass is guarded by a static key, to avoid
    harming other workloads.
    
    There are 3 ways that a packet from a skip_sw ruleset, can
    end up in the kernel path. Although the send packets to a
    non-existent chain way is only improved a few percents, then
    I believe it's worth optimizing the trap and fall-though
    use-cases.

net: sched: refine software bypass handling in tc_run [+ + +]
Author: Xin Long <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Jan 15 09:27:54 2025 -0500

    net: sched: refine software bypass handling in tc_run
    
    [ Upstream commit a12c76a03386e32413ae8eaaefa337e491880632 ]
    
    This patch addresses issues with filter counting in block (tcf_block),
    particularly for software bypass scenarios, by introducing a more
    accurate mechanism using useswcnt.
    
    Previously, filtercnt and skipswcnt were introduced by:
    
      Commit 2081fd3445fe ("net: sched: cls_api: add filter counter") and
      Commit f631ef39d819 ("net: sched: cls_api: add skip_sw counter")
    
      filtercnt tracked all tp (tcf_proto) objects added to a block, and
      skipswcnt counted tp objects with the skipsw attribute set.
    
    The problem is: a single tp can contain multiple filters, some with skipsw
    and others without. The current implementation fails in the case:
    
      When the first filter in a tp has skipsw, both skipswcnt and filtercnt
      are incremented, then adding a second filter without skipsw to the same
      tp does not modify these counters because tp->counted is already set.
    
      This results in bypass software behavior based solely on skipswcnt
      equaling filtercnt, even when the block includes filters without
      skipsw. Consequently, filters without skipsw are inadvertently bypassed.
    
    To address this, the patch introduces useswcnt in block to explicitly count
    tp objects containing at least one filter without skipsw. Key changes
    include:
    
      Whenever a filter without skipsw is added, its tp is marked with usesw
      and counted in useswcnt. tc_run() now uses useswcnt to determine software
      bypass, eliminating reliance on filtercnt and skipswcnt.
    
      This refined approach prevents software bypass for blocks containing
      mixed filters, ensuring correct behavior in tc_run().
    
    Additionally, as atomic operations on useswcnt ensure thread safety and
    tp->lock guards access to tp->usesw and tp->counted, the broader lock
    down_write(&block->cb_lock) is no longer required in tc_new_tfilter(),
    and this resolves a performance regression caused by the filter counting
    mechanism during parallel filter insertions.
    
      The improvement can be demonstrated using the following script:
    
      # cat insert_tc_rules.sh
    
        tc qdisc add dev ens1f0np0 ingress
        for i in $(seq 16); do
            taskset -c $i tc -b rules_$i.txt &
        done
        wait
    
      Each of rules_$i.txt files above includes 100000 tc filter rules to a
      mlx5 driver NIC ens1f0np0.
    
      Without this patch:
    
      # time sh insert_tc_rules.sh

        user    0m23.556s

net: smc: fix splice entry lifetime imbalance in smc_rx_splice [+ + +]
Author: Daming Li <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Jul 30 22:55:52 2026 +0800

    net: smc: fix splice entry lifetime imbalance in smc_rx_splice
    
    commit 5d9686af2976741bbd79b150d1c9e60b81e7f12e upstream.
    
    smc_rx_splice() passes pages to splice_to_pipe() before taking the
    references that cover the lifetime of each splice entry. In the
    VM-backed RMB path, splice_to_pipe() may drop unqueued entries through
    smc_rx_spd_release(), while queued entries are released later via the
    pipe buffer callback.
    
    The old post-splice accounting also derives the number of queued VM pages
    from an offset mutated while building the descriptor, and a multi-page
    splice pairs one sock_hold() with multiple sock_put() calls.

net: thunderbolt: Tear down DMA paths before stopping the rings [+ + +]
Author: Fan XinRan <[email protected]>
Date:   Mon Aug 3 14:38:50 2026 +0000

    net: thunderbolt: Tear down DMA paths before stopping the rings
    
    [ Upstream commit 68bf02b6b4ad3f748c6db71fd77b6c0402d252f4 ]
    
    tbnet_tear_down() stops both rings and frees their frame buffers before
    calling tb_xdomain_disable_paths().  tb_ring_stop() zeroes the ring's
    descriptor base and tbnet_free_buffers() unmaps and frees the pages the
    frames sit in, so by the time __tb_path_deactivate_hop() polls the hop's
    'pending' bit, anything still in flight has nowhere to drain to.
    
    The teardown sequence has been in this order since the driver was added.
    The setup path has not: commit ff7cd07f3064 ("net: thunderbolt: Enable
    DMA paths only after rings are enabled") moved the path enable to the end
    of tbnet_connected_work() and documented why:
    
            /* Both logins successful so enable the rings, high-speed DMA
             * paths and start the network device queue.
             *
             * Note we enable the DMA paths last to make sure we have primed
             * the Rx ring before any incoming packets are allowed to
             * arrive.
             */
    
    Teardown was never updated to match, so the rings and the paths now come
    down in the same order they go up instead of in reverse.
    
    On an ASMedia ASM4242 host router the 'pending' bit then never clears:
    every teardown burns the full 500 ms timeout and
    __tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns -ETIMEDOUT.  Raising the timeout to
    5 s does not help, so the hop is not slow to drain, it never drains
    at all.
    
    The failure is invisible above the thunderbolt core.
    __tb_path_deactivate_hops() is void and only calls tb_port_warn();
    tb_path_deactivate(), tb_tunnel_deactivate() and
    __tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() are void as well, and
    tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() ends in an unconditional "return 0".  So
    tb_xdomain_disable_paths() reports success and the netdev_warn() below
    it never fires.  Repeated teardowns eventually take the XDomain control
    channel down, after which the peer node is gone and only a power cycle
    brings the controller back.
    
    Deactivating the paths first fixes it.  Measured with kretprobes on a
    stock v6.17 tree with no other patches applied, on a link that was up
    and had just carried traffic:
    
      before: __tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns 0 for the first hop, then
              -ETIMEDOUT for the second 500335 us later
      after:  0 for both, 525 us apart
    
    Alternating the two orderings ABBA over three load levels, four
    teardowns per arm: every teardown failed before the change (21 of 21
    that ran), none failed after (0 of 24).  The before arms ran short
    because the link died partway through.  The same split shows up when
    the interface is enslaved to a bond instead of just brought down, which
    is how I ran into this in the first place.  Throughput and latency after
    the change are unchanged.
    
    Hosts whose routers drain the hop despite the stale descriptor base see
    no functional difference, since the paths end up deactivated either way.

    net: usb: ax88179_178a: fix skb leak in ax88179_tx_fixup()
    
    commit 1f428e30947395d9b9aacee03e25a4e6cfcad7a4 upstream.
    
    When the interface has NETIF_F_SG enabled and skb_linearize() fails in
    ax88179_tx_fixup(), the function returns NULL without freeing the skb.
    
    usbnet_start_xmit() treats a NULL return from tx_fixup() as a drop
    (info->flags does not set FLAG_MULTI_PACKET for this driver), jumping
    to the "drop" label where it does `if (skb) dev_kfree_skb_any(skb)`.
    Because tx_fixup() returned NULL, the local skb variable in
    usbnet_start_xmit() is NULL, so the original skb is never freed — a
    memory leak on every TX frame whose linearization fails (i.e. under
    memory pressure).
    
    Free the skb before returning, matching the error handling already used
    for the pskb_expand_head() failure path in the same function.

netfilter: bridge: release template ct on non-IP path [+ + +]

    netfilter: bridge: release template ct on non-IP path
    
    commit d45cc8020d7c0a9f01dee42ff5c40bc14c9af72f upstream.
    
    A bridge nftables ct zone set rule can attach a conntrack template to
    an skb before nf_ct_bridge_pre() sees it. For non-IPv4 and non-IPv6
    EtherTypes, nf_ct_bridge_pre() currently overwrites skb->_nfct with
    IP_CT_UNTRACKED without releasing the existing template reference.
    
    That makes the per-cpu template, and any temporary templates allocated
    for concurrent use, unreachable and leaks memory until the host runs out
    of slab.
    
    Reset the skb conntrack state before marking the frame untracked so the
    existing template reference is dropped on the non-IP path.

netfilter: ebt_nflog: pin the NFLOG backend [+ + +]
Author: Chengfeng Ye <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Jul 30 01:31:00 2026 +0800

    netfilter: ebt_nflog: pin the NFLOG backend
    
    commit 30825970339c107bacaf7f61af90fcdb1f597ca1 upstream.
    
    nf_log_unregister() runs after the per-net teardown so its final RCU
    grace period also drains readers that obtained the logger from a per-net
    binding.  However, ebt_nflog passes an explicit ULOG log type to
    nf_log_packet() without holding a reference on the selected logger module,
    unlike the xt_NFLOG and nft_log frontends.
    
    An ebtables nflog rule can therefore remain callable while nfnetlink_log
    is unloaded.  The resulting interleaving is:
    
      CPU 0                               CPU 1
      nfnetlink_log_fini()
        unregister_pernet_subsys()
          kfree(nfnl_log_pernet(net))
                                          ebt_nflog_tg()
                                            nf_log_packet()
                                              nfulnl_log_packet()
                                                instance_lookup_get_rcu()
    
    The global ULOG logger is still registered at this point, so CPU 1
    dereferences the per-net state after CPU 0 has freed it.  KASAN reported:

    Acquire the ULOG logger module reference when an ebt_nflog rule is
    validated and release it when the rule is destroyed.  Request the NFLOG
    backend for legacy callers when needed, matching xt_NFLOG.  This prevents
    module teardown until all ebt_nflog rules have stopped using the logger.

    netfilter: nf_conntrack: defer invalid log until after unlock
    
    commit 2d19b95c9723001f214f7a47d67b09f46238f200 upstream.
    
    TCP and SCTP conntrack paths can emit invalid-packet logs while ct->lock
    is still held.
    
    When invalid logging is routed to nfnetlink_log and conntrack export is
    enabled, the log path can re-enter conntrack netlink glue and dump the
    same conntrack again. Protocol attribute dumping may take ct->lock, so
    logging while holding that lock can deadlock.
    
    Defer the TCP invalid logs by storing only the minimal log context while
    ct->lock is held and emitting the log after unlocking. Also make the TCP
    timeout-lowering invalid path return whether a log is needed, then emit
    that log after unlocking.
    
    Do the same for the SCTP invalid state-transition log that can be reached
    while ct->lock is held.
    
    Add a lockdep assertion to nf_ct_l4proto_log_invalid() so future callers
    that log invalid conntracks while holding ct->lock are caught outside TCP
    and SCTP as well.

ovl: don't warn when the mount is completed from another user namespace [+ + +]
Author: Christian Brauner <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Aug 2 20:00:43 2026 +0200

    ovl: don't warn when the mount is completed from another user namespace
    
    commit 63981fc786daaa626cb14d9be1406f674d79f98f upstream.
    
    fsopen() records the caller's user namespace in fc->user_ns and hands
    back an ordinary file descriptor. Nothing ties the task that calls
    fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE) to the task that created the context. The
    fd is inherited across fork() and exec() and it can be passed over a
    unix socket.
    
    Completing a context from another user namespace is allowed on purpose.
    vfs_cmd_create() authorizes the create with mount_capable(), which for
    FS_USERNS_MOUNT checks ns_capable(fc->user_ns, CAP_SYS_ADMIN), and that
    succeeds for a task holding CAP_SYS_ADMIN in an ancestor of fc->user_ns.
    So an unprivileged task can reach the WARN_ON() in ovl_fill_super():
    create a user and a mount namespace in a child, call fsopen("overlay")
    there, send the fscontext fd to the parent and let the parent issue
    FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE. Both namespaces come from a plain unshare(1) and no
    capability is needed anywhere:
    
      WARNING: fs/overlayfs/super.c:1551 at ovl_fill_super+0x7b9/0x1e20 [overlay]
      CPU: 3 UID: 1000 PID: 3243376 Comm: fswarn
      Call Trace:
       get_tree_nodev+0x71/0xa0
       ovl_get_tree+0x15/0x20 [overlay]
       vfs_get_tree+0x2a/0x100
       vfs_cmd_create+0x60/0xf0
       __do_sys_fsconfig+0x4b2/0x500
    
    The child needs the mount namespace because fsopen() itself gates on
    may_mount(), which asks for CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the user namespace owning
    the caller's mount namespace. fsconfig() doesn't repeat that check.
    
    It is a WARN_ON() and not a WARN_ON_ONCE(), so the condition can be
    raised in a loop to taint the kernel and flood the log, and it panics a
    kernel booted with panic_on_warn.
    
    Keep refusing the mount and stop warning about it. ovl_parse_param()
    already spells a user namespace check this way for Opt_override_creds.

    packet: synchronize pressure clearing with ring reconfiguration
    
    commit 1a35da325cac4d5bcad76a2aa943408a6f1d9000 upstream.
    
    packet_set_ring() updates the RX ring state under sk_receive_queue.lock,
    but used to publish the tpacket receive mode through po->prot_hook.func
    after releasing that lock. packet_poll() and packet_recvmsg() can then
    run the pressure clearing path after the ring has been cleared while
    still seeing tpacket_rcv, causing __packet_rcv_has_room() to dereference
    stale or NULL ring storage.
    
    Move the existing receive hook assignment into the same
    sk_receive_queue.lock section as the ring state update. Keep the
    assignment otherwise unchanged, including on TX ring reconfiguration, to
    avoid adding behavior changes that are not required for the fix.
    
    Serialize packet_recvmsg() pressure clearing with the same queue lock
    only after PACKET_SOCK_PRESSURE has been observed. If the flag is clear
    and the socket has moved away from tpacket_rcv, packet_set_ring() has
    already detached the socket and waited for synchronize_net(), so no new
    packet input can set the flag again.
    
    packet_poll() already holds sk_receive_queue.lock, so it uses the new
    unlocked helper directly.

    packet: use consistent hard_header_len in non-ring send paths
    
    commit 03390aa32e669cc4ecd7d34108e2e1afc13d689d upstream.
    
    packet_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len multiple times while allocating
    and constructing an skb. Device reconfiguration can change this value
    concurrently, for example through bonding device type changes.
    
    For SOCK_RAW, packet_snd() can save a larger value in reserve and later
    allocate headroom using a smaller value. Moving skb->data back by reserve
    then places it before skb->head, and the following copy from userspace can
    attempt an out-of-bounds write.
    
    packet_sendmsg_spkt() has the same issue because it calculates its
    reservation and header offset from separate reads before dropping the RCU
    read lock to allocate the skb.
    
    Add LL_RESERVED_SPACE_EX() for callers that already saved a header length.
    Read hard_header_len once in packet_snd() and use it for allocation and
    construction. In packet_sendmsg_spkt(), preserve the allocation-time value
    through the device lookup retry.
    
    The separate SOCK_DGRAM consistency problem between hard_header_len and
    header_ops->create is not addressed here.

    commit 21b5953e7494c16a42e6cd8cf110e18d13ae4a6b upstream.
    
    tpacket_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len independently for skb
    allocation and header construction in tpacket_fill_skb(). Concurrent
    netdevice reconfiguration can therefore make the reserved headroom
    smaller than the amount later pushed, or make copylen - hard_header_len

    construction. Pass the snapshot to tpacket_fill_skb().

    pinctrl: renesas: rzg2l: Use -ENOTSUPP instead of -EOPNOTSUPP
    
    commit c1492da3939c89372929e062d731f328f7693f1e upstream.
    
    The pinctrl and GPIO core code make exceptions for the -ENOTSUPP error
    code.  One such example is gpio_set_config_with_argument_optional(),
    which returns success when gpio_set_config_with_argument() returns
    -ENOTSUPP, but reports failure for all other error codes.
    
    Returning -EOPNOTSUPP from the pinctrl driver on the unsupported pinctrl
    operation may lead to boot failures when pinctrl drivers implements
    struct gpio_chip::set_config, the system uses GPIO hogs, and the
    struct gpio_chip::set_config implementation returns -EOPNOTSUPP for the
    unsupported operations.
    
    Return -ENOTSUPP for the unsupported pinctrl operation.

    ptp: ocp: Fix board ID over-read
    
    commit 6b69f2ef10cdb018c0b127a7cab88e590bbddba4 upstream.
    
    The EEPROM board ID is a fixed 13-byte field and is not guaranteed to
    contain a NUL terminator. Passing it directly to
    devlink_info_version_fixed_put() treats it as a C string and may read
    beyond the field.
    
    Format at most OCP_BOARD_ID_LEN bytes into the existing local buffer
    before reporting the ID. Use a precision limit because the snprintf()
    output size alone does not bound the source string scan.

    [ Upstream commit b250c20b64290808aa4b5cc6d68819a7ee28237f ]
    
    A common use case for regulators is to supply a reference voltage to an
    analog input or output device. This adds a new devres API to get,
    enable, and get the voltage in a single call. This allows eliminating
    boilerplate code in drivers that use reference supplies in this way.

Revert "net: thunderbolt: Enable end-to-end flow control also in transmit" [+ + +]

Date:   Mon Jul 27 12:29:48 2026 +0000

    Revert "net: thunderbolt: Enable end-to-end flow control also in transmit"
    
    [ Upstream commit 1881f2efbf7f78dc0a79a387b29fde6ff56d3731 ]
    
    This reverts commit a8065af3346ebd7c76ebc113451fb3ba94cf7769.
    
    Per the USB4 spec, a Transmit Descriptor Ring with E2E flow control
    disabled does not require any credits to be available before the Host
    Interface Adapter Layer transmits a tunneled packet from it. Once E2E is
    enabled on that ring the controller must first obtain end-to-end
    credits.
    
    The ASMedia ASM4242 USB4 host router (PCI 1b21:2425) never delivers
    those credits. The controller does accept the configuration: reading the
    ring OPTIONS register back right after tb_ring_start() returns exactly
    what was written, including RING_FLAG_E2E_FLOW_CONTROL (bit 28) and the
    E2E HopID field. No credit ever arrives though, so the Tx ring's
    hardware consumer index never advances and the link carries no traffic
    at all.
    
    Measured on two hosts connected point to point, onboard ASM4242 on MSI
    X870E and X870, v6.17, stock drivers/net/thunderbolt/main.c with only
    this revert applied on top:
    
      before: 100% packet loss to the peer; thunderbolt0 is up and the
              XDomain handshake completes ("new host found"), but iperf3
              fails with "No route to host" once the neighbour entry
              expires
      after:  0% packet loss, 0.28 ms RTT; iperf3 4.21 Gb/s one way and
              5.17 Gb/s the other (5 runs each, stddev <= 0.02), 1
              retransmit in 10 s
    
    An instrumented build additionally showed a frozen-Tx-consumer watchdog
    firing ~30k times in a 10 s window before this change.
    
    Rx-side E2E is not touched by this revert, so peers that do return
    credits keep receive-side flow control.
    
    ASMedia does not look like an isolated case. The out-of-tree
    thunderbolt-ibverbs project disables native E2E on AMD NHI by default,
    noting that "Strix Halo has reproduced TX completion wedges with
    multiple native E2E rings active" -- the same failure mode, on a
    different vendor. Since the driver has no way to tell in advance which
    host router returns the credits, going back to the previous behaviour
    looks safer than adding a quirk per affected part; Tx-side E2E can be
    reintroduced as an opt-in for controllers that are known to implement
    the credit return.
    
    Note that the reverted commit was not fixing a reported problem, it was
    derived from the spec wording alone, so this revert is not expected to
    regress a known workload. Cc'ing the original author in case there was
    one.

ring-buffer: Fix crash passing ERR_PTR to kthread_stop() [+ + +]

    ring-buffer: Fix crash passing ERR_PTR to kthread_stop()
    
    commit 91542863abade2fd4f2b361991f5386ad9d19c8c upstream.
    
    In test_ringbuffer()'s out_free cleanup loop, the check
    `!rb_threads[cpu]` only catches NULL entries and misses entries that
    hold an ERR_PTR.
    
    rb_threads[] is static, so unassigned slots are NULL. But when
    kthread_run_on_cpu() fails for a cpu, it stores ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) (or
    -EINTR) in rb_threads[cpu] before the creation loop jumps to out_free.
    That entry is non-NULL, so the old `!ptr` check does not break, and the
    cleanup proceeds to call kthread_stop() on the ERR_PTR. kthread_stop()
    then dereferences the bogus pointer, crashing the kernel during the
    late_initcall self-test.
    
    crash logs:
      BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000001c

s390/zcrypt: Fix missing mem scrub at clear key import in cca_clr2cipherkey() [+ + +]

Date:   Mon Aug 10 16:17:13 2026 +0200

    s390/zcrypt: Fix missing mem scrub at clear key import in cca_clr2cipherkey()
    
    [ Upstream commit 01476391aecef36a3b789ee844357b22fbc90665 ]
    
    The helper function _ip_cprb_helper() uses internal buffer memory for
    building and processing CPRBs. After use this buffer was never
    scrubbed which could lead to leaving for example clear key material in
    memory which could be exposed via tricky reuse of this same memory.
    
    Extend the _ip_cprb_helper() function with another parameter 'scrub'
    used to steer scrubbing of this buffer. So now the caller has the
    opportunity to decide if scrubbing is needed or not.
    
    Extend the clear key to secure key token import process in function
    cca_clr2cipherkey() to tell the helper function from above to scrub
    the cprb buffer when the clear key value is part of the request data.
    
    Add explicit scrubbing on return from function cca_clr2cipherkey() for
    the random EXOR buffer and the cprb buffer.
    
    Overall this cleans the internal used buffer in case of clear key
    import to prevent sensitive data to get exposed.

sched/psi: Shut down rtpoll_timer in psi_cgroup_free() [+ + +]

    sched/psi: Shut down rtpoll_timer in psi_cgroup_free()
    
    commit 5457025fa8ca3c0d2732109513de839e3e797190 upstream.
    
    psi_schedule_rtpoll_work() is called locklessly from the scheduler hotpath
    and can race psi_trigger_destroy() taking down the last rtpoll trigger under
    rtpoll_trigger_lock:
    
      psi_schedule_rtpoll_work()        psi_trigger_destroy()
    
      rcu_read_lock();
      task = rcu_dereference(rtpoll_task);
                                        rcu_assign_pointer(rtpoll_task, NULL);
                                        timer_delete(&rtpoll_timer);
      mod_timer(&rtpoll_timer, ...);
      rcu_read_unlock();
                                        synchronize_rcu();
                                        kthread_stop(task_to_destroy);
    
    The group can then be freed with the re-armed timer still pending, and
    poll_timer_fn() runs on freed memory.
    
    461daba06bdc ("psi: eliminate kthread_worker from psi trigger scheduling
    mechanism") deleted the timer synchronously after the synchronize_rcu(),
    which prevented this but raced trigger creation instead: the deletion could
    cancel the timer that a new trigger set armed during the grace period and,
    as creation also reinitialized the timer at the time, corrupt it.
    8f91efd870ea ("psi: Fix race between psi_trigger_create/destroy") moved the
    initialization into group_init() and the deletion into the locked section,
    trading the creation races for the window above.
    
    Neither placement in the destruction path works. A pending timer firing
    while the group is alive is harmless though. poll_timer_fn() just wakes the
    rtpoll waitqueue and doesn't re-arm itself. Bind the timer to the group's
    lifetime instead and shut it down in psi_cgroup_free(). Nothing can arm it
    by then. timer_shutdown_sync() because the timer is never armed again.

sctp: clear control chunk transport if it is being removed [+ + +]
Author: Xin Long <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Aug 5 11:18:40 2026 -0400

    sctp: clear control chunk transport if it is being removed
    
    [ Upstream commit c9158ceaf27780ef64534ad72f44ffde3f8ccc49 ]
    
    sctp_make_heartbeat_ack() caches the destination transport in
    chunk->transport without taking a reference. When src_out_of_asoc_ok is
    enabled, the HEARTBEAT ACK may remain queued on control_chunk_list instead
    of being transmitted immediately.
    
    If the peer transport is removed while the chunk is still queued,
    sctp_assoc_rm_peer() drops the transport and schedules it for RCU freeing,
    but only clears cached transport pointers in out_chunk_list.  The queued
    control chunk therefore retains a dangling transport pointer.
    
    Once an ASCONF_ACK clears the suppression and the queued control chunk is
    transmitted, SCTP dereferences the stale transport pointer, leading to a
    use-after-free.
    
    Fix this by also clearing chunk->transport for queued control chunks in
    control_chunk_list when removing the transport.

sctp: clear new_transport when removing a peer [+ + +]

Date:   Tue Aug 11 23:28:03 2026 +0800

    sctp: clear new_transport when removing a peer
    
    commit beb33f8ee1ca83acddb2a5ae80f3d22ec550b4c3 upstream.
    
    sctp_process_asconf_param() stores a newly added peer transport in
    asoc->new_transport. After all parameters in the ASCONF chunk have been
    processed, sctp_sf_do_asconf() uses this pointer to send a HEARTBEAT to the
    new transport.
    
    An authenticated ASCONF from a remote SCTP peer can add a transport and
    remove it again with a wildcard DEL-IP parameter in the same chunk. The
    wildcard deletion preserves the transport on which the ASCONF arrived, but
    removes the newly added transport through
    sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(). The removal does not clear
    asoc->new_transport, leaving it pointing to the removed transport.
    
    sctp_sf_do_asconf() then creates a HEARTBEAT whose chunk->transport points
    to the removed transport without holding a transport reference. During
    local address replacement, src_out_of_asoc_ok keeps this HEARTBEAT on
    control_chunk_list. After the transport is freed by RCU, a successful
    ASCONF_ACK for the replacement address releases the queued HEARTBEAT and
    sctp_outq_select_transport() reads the freed transport's state.
    
    The issue was found during a static audit of SCTP objects. With an
    authenticated peer, the reproducer triggered the same KASAN report in 2
    of 2 unpatched runs on a KASAN-enabled netdev/main kernel:

sctp: fix addip_serial increment on ASCONF_ACK allocation failure [+ + +]

    sctp: fix addip_serial increment on ASCONF_ACK allocation failure
    
    [ Upstream commit aa2e13ae8d3cbe2c15ef4f7e971b2de0832794aa ]
    
    In sctp_process_asconf(), when sctp_make_asconf_ack() fails to allocate
    the ASCONF_ACK chunk due to memory pressure, the code jumps to the
    done label where asoc->peer.addip_serial is unconditionally incremented.
    
    This leaves the peer's ASCONF (serial N) unacknowledged while the local
    endpoint now expects serial N+1. When the peer retransmits serial N, it
    falls into the serial < addip_serial + 1 branch ,
    which attempts to look up a cached ACK for serial N. No cached ACK
    exists since the allocation failed, so the retransmission is silently
    discarded. The peer eventually times out and ABORTs the association.
    
    Move the addip_serial increment inside the if (asconf_ack) block so that
    the serial number is only advanced when the ASCONF_ACK is successfully
    created and cached. This way, on allocation failure, the serial number
    is unchanged and the peer's retransmitted ASCONF will be correctly
    re-processed.

sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk [+ + +]
Author: Yuxiang Yang <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Aug 9 12:38:06 2026 +0800

    sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk
    
    commit 8c283e7b56adce00193837f3311b06662466fb21 upstream.
    
    addip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal
    ASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer.
    
    However, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without
    clearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling,
    sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes
    sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves
    the pointer dangling.
    
    A delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(),
    which accesses the stale chunk and passes it to sctp_process_asconf_ack(),
    causing a use-after-free and a second release.
    
    Clearing the pointer exposes a race with T4 expiry. Peer restart handling
    queues the timer stop before the purge, but SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP uses
    timer_delete(), which does not wait for a callback already running on
    another CPU. Such a callback can reach sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() after
    the purge and dereference NULL.
    
    Clear addip_last_asconf after releasing the cached chunk, and make
    sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() consume a stale T4 expiry if no outstanding
    ASCONF remains.

sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on [+ + +]
Author: Baul Lee <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Jul 30 01:00:28 2026 +0900

    sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on
    
    commit 9f2cf069a9a72a2d6b97ca8b4c70e714aac99749 upstream.
    
    __sctp_outq_flush_rtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's
    transmitted list without updating chunk->transport:
    
            if (chunk->tsn_gap_acked) {
                    list_move_tail(&chunk->transmitted_list,
                                   &transport->transmitted);
                    continue;
            }
    
    The chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still
    names a different one.  If that transport is removed - sctp_assoc_rm_peer()
    from an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctp_transport_free() RCU-frees it and the chunk
    is left with a dangling pointer.  sctp_assoc_rm_peer() scrubs
    peer->transmitted and asoc->outqueue.out_chunk_list, but the chunk is on
    neither.
    
    The pointer is not followed while tsn_gap_acked is set.  A SACK that
    reneges on the TSN clears the flag, and the next SACK reaches
    
            tchunk->transport->flight_size -= sctp_data_size(tchunk);
    
    inside the freed transport.  KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free read in
    sctp_check_transmitted(), freed from sctp_assoc_rm_peer().  Both the
    removal and the SACKs come from the association peer.
    
    Set chunk->transport at the move.  The ordinary resend path needs nothing:
    it reaches its list_move_tail() only after sctp_packet_append_chunk()
    returned SCTP_XMIT_OK, and __sctp_packet_append_chunk() has rebound the
    chunk by then.

    selftests/ftrace: refactor eprobes test to fix argument checks
    
    [ Upstream commit 6e3abef2a27e7402a94111c9eff85d887e64a309 ]
    
    The add/remove eprobe test installs an eprobe for the openat syscall and
    runs ls. It checks the filenames that were opened by ls against a
    whitelist and a blacklist.
    
    Commit 206b25c09080 ("tracing: eprobe: read the complete FILTER_PTR_STRING
    pointer") fixed access to some string fields in eprobes. This triggers
    test failures as the blacklist does not allow relative paths for the
    openat parameters.
    
    What makes this test unstable is the fact that the openat calls vary a
    lot between different systems.
    
    Refactor the test to make it more robust. "cd <directory>" will issue a
    chdir syscall with the target directory as parameter. Set an eprobe on
    the sys_enter_chdir event and filter for the exact directory name. Allow
    (fault) as fallback.

serial: 8250_dma: Clear stale RX state on shutdown [+ + +]

    serial: 8250_dma: Clear stale RX state on shutdown
    
    commit e2fe6a0efecbef00e3ecc2db64dd5afa8c212b41 upstream.
    
    serial8250_release_dma() terminates RX DMA and releases the channel, but
    leaves rx_running set.  If the port is closed while an RX transfer is
    active, the stale state remains while rxchan is NULL until the channel is
    requested again on the next open.
    
    The DesignWare BUSY workaround added by commit a7b9ce39fbe4
    ("serial: 8250_dw: Ensure BUSY is deasserted") calls
    serial8250_rx_dma_flush() from the LCR write path during startup.  This
    happens before serial8250_request_dma() obtains a new RX channel.  On
    reopen, the stale rx_running state therefore makes the flush path pass a
    NULL channel to dmaengine_pause(), causing a kernel Oops.
    
    Clear rx_running after terminating RX DMA, matching the TX cleanup.  Also
    make the flush helper return if the DMA object or RX channel is not
    available so startup and teardown paths cannot pass a NULL channel to the
    DMAengine API.

    smb: client: Fix use-after-free in cifs_try_adding_channels()
    
    commit 4986410316b1ae0e63c6ce418e4eb196723626e7 upstream.
    
    cifs_try_adding_channels() takes a temporary reference to an interface
    before dropping iface_lock. If cifs_ses_add_channel() fails, it drops
    that reference and then increments iface->weight_fulfilled.
    
    A concurrent interface list refresh can remove the list reference while
    channel creation is in progress. In that case, the failure-path
    kref_put() releases the last reference and frees iface. Updating
    weight_fulfilled afterward then accesses freed memory.
    
    Increment weight_fulfilled before dropping the temporary reference,
    keeping iface alive for the final access.

    commit 2c56ef658ac8c6bca36bc5574715e8f717207c6c upstream.
    
    The WEP shared-key authentication handler uses the challenge-text
    element's attacker-controlled length without checking it against the
    fixed 128-byte chg_txt buffer.
    
    In OnAuthClient() the length from rtw_get_ie() - up to 255 - is used
    to perform memcpy() into the 128-byte pmlmeinfo->chg_txt, so a
    malicious AP sending a malformed WLAN_EID_CHALLENGE element can
    overflow/underfill chg_txt by up to 127 bytes. It is reachable over the
    air, before association, during shared-key authentication. In the case
    of an overflow, the driver can write out of bounds. In the case of an
    underfill, the driver can echo stale buffer memory.
    
    The challenge text is defined to be exactly 128 octets, which is
    already provided as the WLAN_AUTH_CHALLENGE_LEN define; require the
    element to be exactly that length before use.

    staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_get_wpa_ie()
    
    commit 1c3e23e78862493e8cf1adad02b10ffcb8b9921c upstream.
    
    rtw_get_wpa_ie() reads bytes at fixed offsets into a vendor-specific
    information element without checking that the element is long enough,
    causing an out-of-bounds read for a short trailing IE.
    
    The function locates a vendor-specific IE (EID 221) with rtw_get_ie()
    and then compares a 4-byte OUI+type at pbuf + 2 and reads a 2-byte
    version word at pbuf + 6. Those accesses require the IE body to be at
    least 6 bytes, but rtw_get_ie() only guarantees that the element fits
    within the buffer; it does not enforce a minimum body length. A
    vendor-specific IE whose length byte is 0 to 5, placed at the end of
    the buffer, therefore makes these reads run past the end of the IE and
    past the end of the buffer itself.
    
    The buffer holds information elements taken from received management
    frames and from the IE blob passed to rtw_cfg80211_set_wpa_ie(), which
    is kmemdup'd to its exact length, so the read can run off the end of
    the allocation.
    
    The sibling helpers rtw_get_sec_ie(), rtw_get_wapi_ie() and
    rtw_get_wps_ie() in this file already reject too-short vendor-specific
    IEs before their OUI memcmp(); rtw_get_wpa_ie() was never brought in
    line with them, and needs a minimum of 6 rather than 4 bytes because
    of the version word. Add the missing length check.

Date:   Sun Jul 19 09:15:09 2026 +0500

    staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in WMM_param_handler()
    
    commit ae21407350151bddfd4fea7aa39bd0643c0ca9d3 upstream.
    
    WMM_param_handler() copies a fixed-size WMM parameter element out of a
    received information element without checking that the element is long
    enough, causing an out-of-bounds read for a short WMM IE.
    
    The handler reads sizeof(struct WMM_para_element) (18) bytes at
    pIE->data + 6, so it requires pIE->length to be at least 24
    (WLAN_WMM_LEN), but it never validates the length. Two of its three
    callers reach it after matching only the WMM OUI: OnAssocRsp() in
    rtw_mlme_ext.c matches a 6-byte OUI, and join_cmd_hdl() matches a
    4-byte OUI, before calling the handler. A vendor-specific IE carrying
    the WMM OUI but a length between 6 and 23, placed in an association
    response or in the IE blob handed to join_cmd_hdl(), passes the OUI
    check and then makes the memcmp() and memcpy() at pIE->data + 6 read
    past the end of the element. OnAssocRsp() parses a frame received from
    the AP, so this is reachable from a remote peer.
    
    The remaining caller in rtw_wlan_util.c already guards the handler with
    "pIE->length == WLAN_WMM_LEN". Move the equivalent check into the
    handler itself so every caller is covered; the sibling IE handlers in
    the same parsing loop (HT_caps_handler(), HT_info_handler(),
    ERP_IE_handler()) likewise bound their accesses by pIE->length.

    rtw_cfg80211_monitor_if_xmit_entry() removes the radiotap header and
    then reads the 802.11 frame control field without checking that a base

    span before confirming that the skb contains it. A truncated frame can

    frames that do not contain their complete calculated header span.

    rcv_ssthresh via __tcp_adjust_rcv_ssthresh().
    
    As a result, each scaling_ratio decrease detected by
    tcp_measure_rcv_mss() also cuts rcv_ssthresh. Elsewhere in TCP,
    rcv_ssthresh is usually cut under memory pressure and grows via
    tcp_grow_window().
    
    Flows whose segment sizes vary keep scaling_ratio oscillating, which
    leads to an unstable rcv_ssthresh: a dip of rcv_ssthresh only recovers
    via tcp_grow_window(), keeping the advertised window at a relatively
    low level even after the ratio itself has recovered, and can even stall
    the sender.
    
    Observed on a customer's proxy gateway after upgrading from kernel 6.1
    to 6.12: in the worst case, rcv_ssthresh was cut in half by a
    scaling_ratio dip. P99 latency jumped from <10ms on 6.1 to ~100ms on
    6.12, and almost returned to the 6.1 level with this patch applied.
    
    Restore the plain WRITE_ONCE() update of window_clamp, as introduced
    in commit a2cbb1603943 ("tcp: Update window clamping condition"), and
    keep the rcvq_space.space adjustment. Now rcv_ssthresh is decoupled from
    scaling_ratio changes in tcp_measure_rcv_mss().

tcp: fix TFO max_qlen accounting across reuseport migration [+ + +]

    tcp: fix TFO max_qlen accounting across reuseport migration
    
    [ Upstream commit a0ab2ba83e35159d81cec830a92e885ecf8139be ]
    
    A listener's TCP_FASTOPEN max_qlen stops being accurate and lets through
    far more pending Fast Open requests than it was configured for.
    
    This only shows up with SO_REUSEPORT listener migration, where closing a
    listener hands its still-pending TFO children over to a surviving one.
    
    fastopenq.qlen is charged in tcp_fastopen_create_child() when the child
    is created and uncharged in reqsk_fastopen_remove() when the handshake
    completes.  The uncharge follows rsk_listener of the request the child
    points at, and inet_reqsk_clone() has repointed the child at a new
    request owned by the new listener, so the ++ and the -- land on two
    different sockets.  The new listener's qlen drifts negative and its
    limit no longer binds.
    
    Charge the new listener during migration, like reqsk_queue_migrated()
    already does for queue->young and queue->qlen.

thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports [+ + +]

Date:   Thu Jun 25 06:54:09 2026 -0500

    thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports
    
    commit d6764992f17b23d91ff93ce905ab53c2aa7191f0 upstream.
    
    tb_drom_parse_entry_port() validates the device-supplied header->index
    against sw->config.max_port_number before indexing sw->ports[], but the
    sibling field entry->dual_link_port_nr -- a 6-bit value also read from
    the DROM -- indexes the same array with no such check. A malicious or
    malformed Thunderbolt device can set dual_link_port_nr beyond the
    allocated sw->ports[] (max_port_number + 1 entries), producing an
    out-of-bounds tb_port pointer that is stored and later dereferenced.
    
    Reject a port entry whose dual_link_port_nr exceeds max_port_number,
    the same bound already applied to header->index.

thunderbolt: icm: Preserve USB4 proxy data-valid bit [+ + +]

    thunderbolt: icm: Preserve USB4 proxy data-valid bit
    
    commit e48844ece5e3ed1d1eb865f6da2b16f62cd9f86d upstream.
    
    The ICM USB4 switch operation request encodes two values in
    request.data_len_valid: bit 4 marks the data payload valid, while bits
    3:0 hold the payload length in dwords.  A zero length with the valid bit
    set represents the full 16-dword data array.
    
    icm_usb4_switch_op() sets the valid bit when a transmit payload is
    present.  For payloads shorter than the full 16 dwords, it then assigns
    the length to the whole field and clears the valid bit that was just set.
    The payload is still copied into the request, but the descriptor sent to
    firmware marks that data as invalid.
    
    This affects USB4 router operations that send short payloads through the
    firmware connection manager.  In particular, USB4 NVM writes can send a
    short final block when the image size is not aligned to the 64-byte proxy
    payload size.  Firmware may then ignore or reject that final block, while
    full 16-dword blocks are unaffected because they are encoded as length 0
    with the valid bit set.
    
    OR the short payload length into data_len_valid so the valid bit is
    preserved.

tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down() [+ + +]
Author: Jun Yang <[email protected]>
Date:   Mon Aug 10 18:21:38 2026 +0800

    tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down()
    
    commit cba9ccb47e9fa4cc77692fb896cc5ab57a667882 upstream.
    
    tipc_node_link_down() caches the link pointer before taking n->lock:
    
            struct tipc_link *l = le->link;         /* unlocked */
    
            if (!l)
                    return;
            tipc_node_write_lock(n);
            if (!tipc_link_is_establishing(l)) {    /* deref l */
            ...
                    tipc_link_reset(l);             /* write into l */
            if (delete) {
                    kfree(l);
                    le->link = NULL;
    
    The delete=true caller frees that very object under n->lock, so the lock
    does not protect the cached pointer against it:
    
     - CPU A, delete=false: tipc_rcv() on TIPC_LINK_DOWN_EVT, or the link
       supervision timer via tipc_node_timeout(), reads l unlocked and then
       dereferences it under n->lock;
     - CPU B, delete=true: netlink TIPC_NL_BEARER_DISABLE -> bearer_disable()
       -> tipc_node_delete_links() -> tipc_node_link_down(n, bearer_id, true)
       -> kfree(l).
    
    The link is freed with plain kfree(), not kfree_rcu(), and for UDP bearers
    disable_media() only schedules the asynchronous cleanup_bearer() work, so
    its synchronize_net() runs after the links are already gone.  An in-flight
    CPU A that has read l therefore dereferences freed memory once B frees it:
    a use-after-free read in tipc_link_is_establishing(), and a use-after-free
    write via tipc_link_reset() on the establishing branch.
    
    The following trace was captured on 7.2.0-rc5-00284-gaf39eb111ce6:

tls: don't abort the connection on signal-interrupted sends [+ + +]
Author: Maximilian Immanuel Brandtner <[email protected]>
Date:   Wed Aug 5 08:22:48 2026 +0200

    tls: don't abort the connection on signal-interrupted sends
    
    [ Upstream commit af0e5cdd031f4f4a8f6d4160bfbda4f36872b0ed ]
    
    When a signal interrupts a blocking send, tls_tx_records() treats the
    resulting -ERESTARTSYS as a transmission failure and marks the socket
    errored via tls_err_abort() with the raw error code. Later syscalls
    return the kernel-internal errno 512 (ERESTARTSYS) to userspace, as the
    signal it stems from is no longer pending during syscall exit and thus
    never translated.
    
    An interrupted send is not a connection error: the partially sent record
    stays queued and is resent later. Interrupt error codes are therefore
    excluded from the abort in the same way as -EAGAIN.

    tls: don't leave a full plaintext sk_msg ring unpushed
    
    commit 7bca91d63341274e857f4aeaad54d229405e93dc upstream.
    
    When the copy path in tls_sw_sendmsg_locked() adds the fragment that fills
    the plaintext sk_msg ring, it does not set full_record, so the record is
    left full and unpushed.  A later splice() then adds to an already full
    ring: sk_msg_page_add() has no fullness check of its own, so sg.end wraps
    onto sg.start and the ring appears empty.  Fragments added after that
    overwrite live entries, and sg.size no longer matches what is reachable
    between sg.start and sg.end, so pushing the record runs the scatterwalk off
    the end of the scatterlist.
    
    An unprivileged user can trigger this on a loopback TCP socket with the
    "tls" ULP attached:

usb: atm: cxacru: properly kill rcv_urb on error in cxacru_cm() [+ + +]

    usb: atm: cxacru: properly kill rcv_urb on error in cxacru_cm()
    
    commit c2f811314be351d86b6ab41e9297ae80d8da6f86 upstream.
    
    If cxacru_cm() encounters an error while submitting or waiting for snd_urb,
    it aborts and returns the error without killing the already submitted
    rcv_urb. This leaves the rcv_urb active.
    
    When this happens during initialization (e.g., in cxacru_atm_start()), the
    driver may ignore the error and proceed to call cxacru_poll_status(), which
    invokes cxacru_cm() again. Attempting to submit the still-active rcv_urb
    triggers a warning in usb_submit_urb():
    
    cxacru 1-1:1.0: send of cm 0x84 failed (-104)

    ...
    
    To fix this, ensure that rcv_urb is properly killed if cxacru_cm() aborts
    early. We can safely call usb_kill_urb() on rcv_urb in the error path, as
    it is safe to call even if the URB is not active (e.g., if it failed to
    submit in the first place, or if it already completed).

    usb: cdnsp: fix incorrect endian conversions for APB timeout register
    
    commit 50b303f3d0f7de543ee90d50879970783d06da33 upstream.
    
    readl() already returns a CPU-endian value. Passing its return value to
    le32_to_cpu() is therefore redundant and causes an incorrect double byte
    swap on big-endian systems.
    
    Similarly, writel() expects a CPU-endian value, so passing the result of
    cpu_to_le32() is incorrect.
    
    Remove the unnecessary conversions and operate on the MMIO register value
    as a CPU-endian u32.

    commit 6b1c8a9403a26cb0fed7a648916c74dc236da591 upstream.
    
    The variable ndp_index is declared as a signed integer, but it stores
    the return value of get_ncm(), which is unsigned.
    
    A malicious host can supply a large offset that overflows the signed
    ndp_index, making it negative. Because ndp_index is compared against
    unsigned bounds, this negative value bypasses sanity checks and leads
    to an out-of-bounds read when calculating the address of the NDP
    block (ntb_ptr + ndp_index).
    
    Fix this by changing ndp_index to unsigned int to ensure consistent
    unsigned comparisons throughout the function.

veth: fix skb length accounting after XDP frag adjustment [+ + +]

    veth: fix skb length accounting after XDP frag adjustment
    
    commit cb6379feaaff11c4e1e79c26c745ffa23182768a upstream.
    
    veth exposes non-linear skb fragments through an xdp_buff. If an XDP
    program adjusts the fragment area, veth_xdp_rcv_skb() copies
    xdp_frags_size back to skb->data_len but leaves skb->len containing the
    old fragment contribution.
    
    After a fragment shrink, this makes skb_headlen() larger than the actual
    linear area. In the reproduced UDP receive path, __skb_datagram_iter()
    copied 1024 bytes past the actual linear tail to userspace, starting at
    struct skb_shared_info. The copied bytes included the affected skb's
    nr_frags, xdp_frags_size, and a kernel pointer from
    skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[0]. Real packet data was displaced by the same
    amount and truncated at the end.
    
    Subtract the old data_len before replacing it and add the new data_len
    afterwards, keeping skb->len and skb->data_len synchronized.
    
    Additionally, bpf_xdp_pull_data() can advance data_end while leaving
    frags present. The skb is then still non-linear, so the old
    __skb_put(skb, off) triggers SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT().
    
    Use skb_set_tail_pointer() and update skb->len explicitly instead,
    following bpf_prog_run_generic_xdp(). Unlike __skb_put(),
    skb_set_tail_pointer() does not require a linear skb.
    
    A 60000-byte UDP datagram on a veth pair with MTU 64000 was shortened by
    1024 bytes from its fragment area. Before the fix, all 10 runs produced
    corrupted payloads. After the fix, all 10 runs matched the expected
    payload exactly. A forced-tailroom reproducer also exercises
    bpf_xdp_pull_data() with frags still present; the old code triggers
    SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT(), while this fix passes 10/10 runs.

    [ Upstream commit 0619aaa34c0c2a2dcb07f0e9c8a34e7efb8c4cdf ]
    
    vhost_vdpa_pa_map() adds the IOVA page offset to the user-controlled map
    size before computing the number of pages to pin. On 32-bit systems,
    where unsigned long is narrower than u64, that addition can overflow and
    the code can pin and map fewer pages than the requested IOTLB range.
    
    Reject sizes that overflow the unsigned long page-count calculation.

vhost: reset the vring metadata cache on vring reconfiguration [+ + +]
Author: Jun Yang <[email protected]>

    vhost: reset the vring metadata cache on vring reconfiguration
    
    commit de845981da67a6b049080c87e605130b0c30adc5 upstream.
    
    vq->meta_iotlb[] caches the vhost_iotlb_map that backs each vring
    metadata region, and iotlb_access_ok() returns early on a cache hit,
    taking the hit as proof that the region has already been validated:
    
            if (vhost_vq_meta_fetch(vq, addr, len, type))
                    return true;
    
    The cache is reset on VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE and VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE, on
    device IOTLB (re)initialisation and on vq reset, but not when
    VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR replaces vq->desc, vq->avail and vq->used, nor when
    VHOST_SET_VRING_NUM changes the region sizes.
    
    With a device IOTLB attached both ioctls are accepted while the vq is
    live, and neither validates the addresses at ioctl time: vq_access_ok()
    and vq_log_used_access_ok() return true early because the addresses are
    GIOVAs, deferring validation to prefetch time.  Once the cache has been
    populated that deferred validation no longer runs -- vq_meta_prefetch()
    hits the stale entry and returns true -- and vhost_vq_meta_fetch() keeps
    translating through the old mapping as
    
            map->addr + addr - map->start
    
    for an address the mapping no longer covers.  vhost_copy_to_user() and
    vhost_copy_from_user() consume the result with __copy_to_user() and
    __copy_from_user(), which do not check it either, so a subsequent used
    ring update or descriptor fetch accesses memory outside the region the
    IOTLB actually maps.
    
    Reset the metadata cache whenever the vring is reconfigured, so the new
    addresses are pushed back through iotlb_access_ok()'s slow path.

    vsock/virtio: avoid refilling the RX queue after teardown
    
    commit a31e0ad444698d8aa7534a0f89fda543730f97a5 upstream.
    
    Commit b917507e5ad9 ("vsock/virtio: stop workers during the .remove()")
    made the RX worker jump to its common exit when rx_run is clear.  That
    exit still refills the RX queue when the buffer count is low, so work
    queued across virtio_vsock_vqs_del() can add buffers after the virtqueues
    have been deleted.

    vsock/virtio: read virtqueues under worker locks

    Commit bd50c5dc182b ("vsock/virtio: add support for device
    suspend/resume") made the *_run flags transition from false to true when
    restore installs replacement virtqueues.  The RX, TX and event workers
    read their virtqueue before locking and checking the corresponding flag,
    so a worker delayed across freeze and restore can observe the replacement
    queue's running state while retaining a pointer to the deleted queue.
    
    Read each virtqueue under its mutex after checking the run flag, keeping
    the pointer and state in the same queue generation.

vxlan: do not arm the ageing timer on a device that is down [+ + +]
Author: Baul Lee <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Aug 9 20:18:29 2026 +0900

    vxlan: do not arm the ageing timer on a device that is down
    
    commit b37971686ec59fb027fa4910ba16805e68fddb97 upstream.
    
    vxlan_changelink() arms vxlan->age_timer whenever the requested ageing
    interval differs from the configured one:
    
            if (conf.age_interval != vxlan->cfg.age_interval)
                    mod_timer(&vxlan->age_timer, jiffies);
    
    There is no netif_running() test, so the timer is armed even on a device
    that was never brought up.  The only synchronous cancel in the driver is
    the timer_delete_sync() in vxlan_stop(), which is .ndo_stop.
    netif_close_many() drops devices without IFF_UP before
    __dev_close_many() runs, so that cancel is skipped for such a device.
    
    vxlan_setup() sets dev->needs_free_netdev = true and age_timer is a
    member of struct vxlan_dev, so free_netdev() releases the allocation the
    timer lives in while it is still queued on a timer_base.
    expire_timers() unlinks the entry before it loads timer->function, so
    the timer core writes through the freed object's list pointers:
    
      BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __run_timers+0x208/0x654
      Write of size 8 at addr ffff00001adace68 by task true/192

    The rtnl operations involved are netns-scoped, so an unprivileged user
    can perform them in a new user and network namespace.
    
    Arming the timer on a down device never had an effect: vxlan_cleanup()
    returns early on !netif_running(), and vxlan_open() arms the timer for
    any non-zero interval once the device is brought up.  Add the missing
    test.

xdp: reject clones that overrun skb_shared_info tailroom [+ + +]
Author: Zhiling Zou <[email protected]>
Date:   Mon Aug 3 20:15:32 2026 +0800

    xdp: reject clones that overrun skb_shared_info tailroom
    
    commit e48e8edbef2eb824201495daa5234560f632b23c upstream.
    
    xdpf_clone() clones broadcast copies into a single page and sets
    frame_sz to PAGE_SIZE. __xdp_build_skb_from_frame() later treats that
    page like a normal XDP frame and expects the usual skb_shared_info
    tailroom at the end of the buffer.
    
    The current check only rejects frames whose linear xdp_frame header,
    headroom, and packet data exceed PAGE_SIZE. A source frame backed by a
    larger allocation can still satisfy that check while extending into the
    clone's required shared-info area. When such a clone is converted back
    into an skb, build_skb_around() places skb_shared_info over live packet
    bytes and later writes can corrupt XDP return metadata.
    
    Reject clones unless their linear area fits inside
    SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(PAGE_SIZE), matching the tailroom requirement already
    enforced by the XDP-to-skb conversion path.
