Hi Greg, Sasha,
This batch contains a backport fix for 5.4 -stable.
The following list shows the backported patches, I am using original commit
IDs for reference:
1) 8965d42bcf54 ("netfilter: nf_tables: pass nft_chain to destroy function, not nft_ctx")
This is a stable dependency for the next patch.
2) c03d278fdf35 ("netfilter: nf_tables: wait for rcu grace period on net_device removal")
3) b04df3da1b5c ("netfilter: nf_tables: do not defer rule destruction via call_rcu")
This is a fix-for-fix for patch 2.
These three patches are required to fix the netdevice release path for
netdev family basechains.
NOTE: -stable kernels >= 5.4 already provide these backport fixes.
Please, apply,
Thanks

2.30.2
Customer is reporting a really subtle issue where we get random DMAR
faults, hangs and other nasties for kernel migration jobs when stressing
stuff like s2idle/s3/s4. The explosions seems to happen somewhere
after resuming the system with splats looking something like:
PM: suspend exit
rfkill: input handler disabled
xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GT0: Engine reset: engine_class=bcs, logical_mask: 0x2, guc_id=0
xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GT0: Timedout job: seqno=24496, lrc_seqno=24496, guc_id=0, flags=0x13 in no process [-1]
xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm] GT0: Kernel-submitted job timed out
The likely cause appears to be a race between suspend cancelling the
worker that processes the free_job()'s, such that we still have pending
jobs to be freed after the cancel. Following from this, on resume the
pending_list will now contain at least one already complete job, but it
looks like we call drm_sched_resubmit_jobs(), which will then call
run_job() on everything still on the pending_list. But if the job was
already complete, then all the resources tied to the job, like the bb
itself, any memory that is being accessed, the iommu mappings etc. might
be long gone since those are usually tied to the fence signalling.
This scenario can be seen in ftrace when running a slightly modified
xe_pm (kernel was only modified to inject artificial latency into
free_job to make the race easier to hit):
xe_sched_job_run: dev=0000:00:02.0, fence=0xffff888276cc8540, seqno=0, lrc_seqno=0, gt=0, guc_id=0, batch_addr=0x000000146910 ...
xe_exec_queue_stop: dev=0000:00:02.0, 3:0x2, gt=0, width=1, guc_id=0, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x13
xe_exec_queue_stop: dev=0000:00:02.0, 3:0x2, gt=0, width=1, guc_id=1, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x4
xe_exec_queue_stop: dev=0000:00:02.0, 4:0x1, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=0, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x3
xe_exec_queue_stop: dev=0000:00:02.0, 1:0x1, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=1, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x3
xe_exec_queue_stop: dev=0000:00:02.0, 4:0x1, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=2, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x3
xe_exec_queue_resubmit: dev=0000:00:02.0, 3:0x2, gt=0, width=1, guc_id=0, guc_state=0x0, flags=0x13
xe_sched_job_run: dev=0000:00:02.0, fence=0xffff888276cc8540, seqno=0, lrc_seqno=0, gt=0, guc_id=0, batch_addr=0x000000146910 ...
.....
xe_exec_queue_memory_cat_error: dev=0000:00:02.0, 3:0x2, gt=0, width=1, guc_id=0, guc_state=0x3, flags=0x13
So the job_run() is clearly triggered twice for the same job, even
though the first must have already signalled to completion during
suspend. We can also see a CAT error after the re-submit.
To prevent this try to call xe_sched_stop() to forcefully remove
anything on the pending_list that has already signalled, before we
re-submit.
v2:
- Make sure to re-arm the fence callbacks with sched_start().
v3 (Matt B):
- Stop using drm_sched_resubmit_jobs(), which appears to be deprecated
and just open-code a simple loop such that we skip calling run_job()
and anything already signalled.

2.49.0
In mii_nway_restart() the code attempts to call
mii->mdio_read which is ch9200_mdio_read(). ch9200_mdio_read()
utilises a local buffer called "buff", which is initialised
with control_read(). However "buff" is conditionally
initialised inside control_read():
if (err == size) {
memcpy(data, buf, size);
}
If the condition of "err == size" is not met, then
"buff" remains uninitialised. Once this happens the
uninitialised "buff" is accessed and returned during
ch9200_mdio_read():
return (buff[0] | buff[1] << 8);
The problem stems from the fact that ch9200_mdio_read()
ignores the return value of control_read(), leading to
uinit-access of "buff".
To fix this we should check the return value of
control_read() and return early on error.

Subject: mm/contig_alloc: fix alloc_contig_range when __GFP_COMP and order < MAX_ORDER
Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2025 09:36:20 +0800
When calling alloc_contig_range() with __GFP_COMP and the order of
requested pfn range is pageblock_order, less than MAX_ORDER, I triggered
WARNING as follows:
PFN range: requested [2150105088, 2150105600), allocated [2150105088, 2150106112)
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 580 at mm/page_alloc.c:6877 alloc_contig_range+0x280/0x340
alloc_contig_range() marks pageblocks of the requested pfn range to be
isolated, migrate these pages if they are in use and will be freed to
MIGRATE_ISOLATED freelist.
Suppose two alloc_contig_range() calls at the same time and the requested
pfn range are [0x80280000, 0x80280200) and [0x80280200, 0x80280400)
respectively. Suppose the two memory range are in use, then
alloc_contig_range() will migrate and free these pages to MIGRATE_ISOLATED
freelist. __free_one_page() will merge MIGRATE_ISOLATE buddy to larger
buddy, resulting in a MAX_ORDER buddy. Finally, find_large_buddy() in
alloc_contig_range() returns a MAX_ORDER buddy and results in WARNING.
To fix it, call free_contig_range() to free the excess pfn range.

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt(a)goodmis.org>
When reading a memory mapped buffer the reader page is just swapped out
with the last page written in the write buffer. If the reader page is the
same as the commit buffer (the buffer that is currently being written to)
it was assumed that it should never have missed events. If it does, it
triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE().
But there just happens to be one scenario where this can legitimately
happen. That is on a commit_overrun. A commit overrun is when an interrupt
preempts an event being written to the buffer and then the interrupt adds
so many new events that it fills and wraps the buffer back to the commit.
Any new events would then be dropped and be reported as "missed_events".
In this case, the next page to read is the commit buffer and after the
swap of the reader page, the reader page will be the commit buffer, but
this time there will be missed events and this triggers the following
warning:

The above was triggered by running on a kernel with both lockdep and KASAN
as well as kmemleak enabled and executing the following command:
# perf record -o perf-test.dat -a -- trace-cmd record --nosplice -e all -p function hackbench 50
With perf interjecting a lot of interrupts and trace-cmd enabling all
events as well as function tracing, with lockdep, KASAN and kmemleak
enabled, it could cause an interrupt preempting an event being written to
add enough events to wrap the buffer. trace-cmd was modified to have
--nosplice use mmap instead of reading the buffer.
The way to differentiate this case from the normal case of there only
being one page written to where the swap of the reader page received that
one page (which is the commit page), check if the tail page is on the
reader page. The difference between the commit page and the tail page is
that the tail page is where new writes go to, and the commit page holds
the first write that hasn't been committed yet. In the case of an
interrupt preempting the write of an event and filling the buffer, it
would move the tail page but not the commit page.
Have the warning only trigger if the tail page is also on the reader page,
and also print out the number of events dropped by a commit overrun as
that can not yet be safely added to the page so that the reader can see
there were events dropped.

[ Upstream commit 1363c134ade81e425873b410566e957fecebb261 ]
fs_name() has @index as unsigned int, so there is underflow risk for
operation '@index--'.
Fix by breaking the for loop when '@index == 0' which is also more proper
than '@index <= 0' for unsigned integer comparison.

**YES** This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.
**Detailed Analysis:** **The Bug:** The `fs_name()` function at
`fs/filesystems.c:156-174` has a critical unsigned integer underflow
vulnerability. When the function receives `index=0` as a parameter, the
loop `for (tmp = file_systems; tmp; tmp = tmp->next, index--)`
decrements `index` from 0 to `UINT_MAX` (4294967295 on 32-bit systems),
causing the condition `if (index <= 0 && try_module_get(tmp->owner))` to
evaluate incorrectly. **The Fix:** The commit changes the logic from: -
Old: `if (index <= 0 && try_module_get(tmp->owner))` - New: `if (index
== 0) { if (try_module_get(tmp->owner)) res = 0; break; }` This prevents
the unsigned integer from wrapping around and provides proper bounds
checking. **Impact and Severity:** 1. **User-accessible vulnerability**:
The `fs_name()` function is called through the `sysfs` system call

fs_name() has @index as unsigned int, so there is underflow risk for

Fix by breaking the for loop when '@index == 0' which is also more proper
than '@index <= 0' for unsigned integer comparison.

**YES** This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.
**Detailed Analysis:** **The Bug:** The `fs_name()` function at
`fs/filesystems.c:156-174` has a critical unsigned integer underflow
vulnerability. When the function receives `index=0` as a parameter, the
loop `for (tmp = file_systems; tmp; tmp = tmp->next, index--)`
decrements `index` from 0 to `UINT_MAX` (4294967295 on 32-bit systems),
causing the condition `if (index <= 0 && try_module_get(tmp->owner))` to
evaluate incorrectly. **The Fix:** The commit changes the logic from: -
Old: `if (index <= 0 && try_module_get(tmp->owner))` - New: `if (index
== 0) { if (try_module_get(tmp->owner)) res = 0; break; }` This prevents
the unsigned integer from wrapping around and provides proper bounds
checking. **Impact and Severity:** 1. **User-accessible vulnerability**:
The `fs_name()` function is called through the `sysfs` system call
(syscall #139) with option 2, making it directly accessible to userspace
applications. 2. **Potential for exploitation**: An attacker could call
`sysfs(2, 0, buffer)` to trigger the underflow, potentially causing: -

If insert_state() state failed it returns an error pointer and we call
extent_io_tree_panic() which will trigger a BUG() call. However if
CONFIG_BUG is disabled, which is an uncommon and exotic scenario, then
we fallthrough and call cache_state() which will dereference the error
pointer, resulting in an invalid memory access.
So jump to the 'out' label after calling extent_io_tree_panic(), it also
makes the code more clear besides dealing with the exotic scenario where
CONFIG_BUG is disabled.

**YES** This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.
**Detailed Analysis:** **1. Bug Description and Impact:** The commit
fixes a serious potential memory corruption bug in the btrfs filesystem.
When `insert_state()` fails in `btrfs_convert_extent_bit()`, it returns
an error pointer (ERR_PTR). The current code calls
`extent_io_tree_panic()` which triggers `BUG()`, but if `CONFIG_BUG` is
disabled, the code continues executing and calls
`cache_state(inserted_state, cached_state)` with the error pointer,
causing invalid memory access. **2. Code Changes Analysis:** The fix is
minimal and surgical - just adding a single `goto out;` statement after
the `extent_io_tree_panic()` call: ```c if (IS_ERR(inserted_state)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(inserted_state); extent_io_tree_panic(tree, prealloc,
"insert", ret); + goto out; // <-- The fix } ``` This ensures that when
`CONFIG_BUG` is disabled, execution jumps to the cleanup code instead of
continuing with an invalid pointer. **3. Comparison with Similar
Commits:** This commit aligns with the pattern seen in "Similar Commit
#2" (Status: YES), which also: - Removes reliance on `BUG_ON()` behavior
- Provides graceful error handling - Has minimal risk - Fixes a
potential crash/corruption scenario Similar to commit #3 and #5 (both
Status: NO), this touches BUG() handling, but unlike those commits which
make broader architectural changes to error handling patterns, this fix
is much more contained. **4. Stable Tree Criteria Assessment:** ✅
**Fixes important bug**: Prevents potential memory corruption/crashes ✅
**Small and contained**: Single line addition ✅ **Minimal risk**: Only
affects error path when insert_state() fails AND CONFIG_BUG is disabled
✅ **No new features**: Pure bug fix ✅ **No architectural changes**:
Preserves existing error handling, just prevents fallthrough ✅
**Critical subsystem**: btrfs filesystem corruption prevention ✅ **Clear
side effects**: No unintended consequences beyond fixing the bug **5.
Risk Assessment:** - **Very Low Risk**: The change only affects an error
condition that's already problematic - **Exotic scenario**: Only impacts
systems with `CONFIG_BUG` disabled (uncommon but not impossible) - **No
regression potential**: The change only prevents executing invalid code,
doesn't change normal operation - **Well-contained**: Affects only one
function in one file **6. Security Implications:** While `CONFIG_BUG`
disabled is uncommon, this could potentially be exploited if an attacker
can trigger the `insert_state()` failure condition, leading to memory
corruption. The fix prevents this attack vector. This is a clear
candidate for stable backporting - it fixes a real bug with minimal risk
and follows the stable tree rules perfectly.

2.39.5
From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana(a)suse.com>
[ Upstream commit 3bf179e36da917c5d9bec71c714573ed1649b7c1 ]
If insert_state() state failed it returns an error pointer and we call
extent_io_tree_panic() which will trigger a BUG() call. However if
CONFIG_BUG is disabled, which is an uncommon and exotic scenario, then
we fallthrough and call cache_state() which will dereference the error
pointer, resulting in an invalid memory access.
So jump to the 'out' label after calling extent_io_tree_panic(), it also
makes the code more clear besides dealing with the exotic scenario where
CONFIG_BUG is disabled.

**YES** This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.
**Detailed Analysis:** **1. Bug Description and Impact:** The commit
fixes a serious potential memory corruption bug in the btrfs filesystem.
When `insert_state()` fails in `btrfs_convert_extent_bit()`, it returns
an error pointer (ERR_PTR). The current code calls
`extent_io_tree_panic()` which triggers `BUG()`, but if `CONFIG_BUG` is
disabled, the code continues executing and calls
`cache_state(inserted_state, cached_state)` with the error pointer,
causing invalid memory access. **2. Code Changes Analysis:** The fix is
minimal and surgical - just adding a single `goto out;` statement after
the `extent_io_tree_panic()` call: ```c if (IS_ERR(inserted_state)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(inserted_state); extent_io_tree_panic(tree, prealloc,
"insert", ret); + goto out; // <-- The fix } ``` This ensures that when
`CONFIG_BUG` is disabled, execution jumps to the cleanup code instead of
continuing with an invalid pointer. **3. Comparison with Similar
Commits:** This commit aligns with the pattern seen in "Similar Commit
#2" (Status: YES), which also: - Removes reliance on `BUG_ON()` behavior
- Provides graceful error handling - Has minimal risk - Fixes a
potential crash/corruption scenario Similar to commit #3 and #5 (both
Status: NO), this touches BUG() handling, but unlike those commits which
make broader architectural changes to error handling patterns, this fix
is much more contained. **4. Stable Tree Criteria Assessment:** ✅
**Fixes important bug**: Prevents potential memory corruption/crashes ✅
**Small and contained**: Single line addition ✅ **Minimal risk**: Only
affects error path when insert_state() fails AND CONFIG_BUG is disabled
✅ **No new features**: Pure bug fix ✅ **No architectural changes**:
Preserves existing error handling, just prevents fallthrough ✅
**Critical subsystem**: btrfs filesystem corruption prevention ✅ **Clear
side effects**: No unintended consequences beyond fixing the bug **5.
Risk Assessment:** - **Very Low Risk**: The change only affects an error
condition that's already problematic - **Exotic scenario**: Only impacts
systems with `CONFIG_BUG` disabled (uncommon but not impossible) - **No
regression potential**: The change only prevents executing invalid code,
doesn't change normal operation - **Well-contained**: Affects only one
function in one file **6. Security Implications:** While `CONFIG_BUG`
disabled is uncommon, this could potentially be exploited if an attacker
can trigger the `insert_state()` failure condition, leading to memory
corruption. The fix prevents this attack vector. This is a clear
candidate for stable backporting - it fixes a real bug with minimal risk
and follows the stable tree rules perfectly.

2.39.5
There is ABBA dead locking scenario happening between hugetlb_fault()
and hugetlb_wp() on the pagecache folio's lock and hugetlb global mutex,
which is reproducible with syzkaller [1]. As below stack traces reveal,
process-1 tries to take the hugetlb global mutex (A3), but with the
pagecache folio's lock hold. Process-2 took the hugetlb global mutex but
tries to take the pagecache folio's lock.
Process-1 Process-2
========= =========
hugetlb_fault
mutex_lock (A1)
filemap_lock_hugetlb_folio (B1)
hugetlb_wp
alloc_hugetlb_folio #error
mutex_unlock (A2)
hugetlb_fault
mutex_lock (A4)
filemap_lock_hugetlb_folio (B4)
unmap_ref_private
mutex_lock (A3)
Fix it by releasing the pagecache folio's lock at (A2) of process-1 so
that pagecache folio's lock is available to process-2 at (B4), to avoid
the deadlock. In process-1, a new variable is added to track if the
pagecache folio's lock has been released by its child function
hugetlb_wp() to avoid double releases on the lock in hugetlb_fault().
The similar changes are applied to hugetlb_no_page().

echo_skb_max should define the supported upper limit of echo_skb[]
allocated inside the netdevice's priv. The corresponding size value
provided by this driver to alloc_candev() is KVASER_PCIEFD_CAN_TX_MAX_COUNT
which is 17.
But later echo_skb_max is rounded up to the nearest power of two (for the
max case, that would be 32) and the tx/ack indices calculated further
during tx/rx may exceed the upper array boundary. Kasan reported this for
the ack case inside kvaser_pciefd_handle_ack_packet(), though the xmit
function has actually caught the same thing earlier.

Tx max count definitely matters for kvaser_pciefd_tx_avail(), but for seq
numbers' generation that's not the case - we're free to calculate them as
would be more convenient, not taking tx max count into account. The only
downside is that the size of echo_skb[] should correspond to the max seq
number (not tx max count), so in some situations a bit more memory would
be consumed than could be.
Thus make the size of the underlying echo_skb[] sufficient for the rounded
max tx value.

Actually the trick with rounding up allows to calculate seq numbers
efficiently, avoiding a more consuming 'mod' operation used in the
current patch.
I see tx max size definitely matters only for kvaser_pciefd_tx_avail(),
but for seq numbers' generation that's not the case - we're free to
calculate them as would be more convenient, not taking tx max size into
account. The only downside is that the size of echo_skb[] should
correspond to the max seq number (not tx max number), so in some
situations a bit more memory would be consumed than could be.
So another approach to fix the problem would be to precompute the rounded
up value of echo_skb_max and pass it to alloc_candev() making the size of
the underlying echo_skb[] sufficient.
If that looks more acceptable, I'll be glad to rework the patch in that
direction.
