[Linux-stable-mirror] Patch "mm, page_alloc: fix potential false positive in __zone_watermark_ok" has been added to the 4.14-stable tree

by gregkh＠linuxfoundation.org

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mm, page_alloc: fix potential false positive in __zone_watermark_ok to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=sum… The filename of the patch is: mm-page_alloc-fix-potential-false-positive-in-__zone_watermark_ok.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From b050e3769c6b4013bb937e879fc43bf1847ee819 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka(a)suse.cz> Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2017 17:38:30 -0800 Subject: mm, page_alloc: fix potential false positive in __zone_watermark_ok From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka(a)suse.cz> commit b050e3769c6b4013bb937e879fc43bf1847ee819 upstream. Since commit 97a16fc82a7c ("mm, page_alloc: only enforce watermarks for order-0 allocations"), __zone_watermark_ok() check for high-order allocations will shortcut per-migratetype free list checks for ALLOC_HARDER allocations, and return true as long as there's free page of any migratetype. The intention is that ALLOC_HARDER can allocate from MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC free lists, while normal allocations can't. However, as a side effect, the watermark check will then also return true when there are pages only on the MIGRATE_ISOLATE list, or (prior to CMA conversion to ZONE_MOVABLE) on the MIGRATE_CMA list. Since the allocation cannot actually obtain isolated pages, and might not be able to obtain CMA pages, this can result in a false positive. The condition should be rare and perhaps the outcome is not a fatal one. Still, it's better if the watermark check is correct. There also shouldn't be a performance tradeoff here.

The main loop in __discard_prealloc is protected by the reiserfs write lock which is dropped across schedules like the BKL it replaced. The problem is that it checks the value, calls a routine that schedules, and then adjusts the state. As a result, two threads that are calling reiserfs_prealloc_discard at the same time can race when one calls reiserfs_free_prealloc_block, the lock is dropped, and the other calls reiserfs_free_prealloc_block with the same block number.

The capability check in nfnetlink_rcv() verifies that the caller has CAP_NET_ADMIN in the namespace that "owns" the netlink socket. However, nfnl_cthelper_list is shared by all net namespaces on the system. An unprivileged user can create user and net namespaces in which he holds CAP_NET_ADMIN to bypass the netlink_net_capable() check: $ nfct helper list nfct v1.4.4: netlink error: Operation not permitted $ vpnns -- nfct helper list { .name = ftp, .queuenum = 0, .l3protonum = 2, .l4protonum = 6, .priv_data_len = 24, .status = enabled, }; Add capable() checks in nfnetlink_cthelper, as this is cleaner than trying to generalize the solution.

[Linux-stable-mirror] Patch "netfilter: nf_ct_expect: remove the redundant slash when policy name is empty" has been added to the 3.18-stable tree

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled netfilter: nf_ct_expect: remove the redundant slash when policy name is empty to the 3.18-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=sum… The filename of the patch is: netfilter-nf_ct_expect-remove-the-redundant-slash-when-policy-name-is-empty.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.18 subdirectory.

The 'name' filed in struct nf_conntrack_expect_policy{} is not a pointer, so check it is NULL or not will always return true. Even if the name is empty, slash will always be displayed like follows: # cat /proc/net/nf_conntrack_expect 297 l3proto = 2 proto=6 src=1.1.1.1 dst=2.2.2.2 sport=1 dport=1025 ftp/ ^ Fixes: 3a8fc53a45c4 ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allocate 16 bytes for the helper and policy names") Signed-off-by: Liping Zhang <liping.zhang(a)spreadtrum.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo(a)netfilter.org> Acked-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek(a)suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh(a)linuxfoundation.org> --- net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_expect.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_expect.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_expect.c @@ -557,7 +557,7 @@ static int exp_seq_show(struct seq_file helper = rcu_dereference(nfct_help(expect->master)->helper); if (helper) { seq_printf(s, "%s%s", expect->flags ?
