When userspace sends messages to the audit system it includes a type.
We want to be able to filter messages based on that type without have to
do the all or nothing option currently available on the
AUDIT_FILTER_TYPE filter list. Instead we should be able to use the
AUDIT_FILTER_USER filter list and just use the message type as one part
of the matching decision.

If the audit system collects a record about one process sending a signal
to another process it includes in that collection the 'secid' or 'an int
used to represet an LSM label.' If there is no LSM enabled it will
collect a 0. The problem is that when we attempt to print that record
we ask the LSM to convert the secid back to a string. Since there is no
LSM it returns EOPNOTSUPP.
Most code in the audit system checks if the secid is 0 and does not
print LSM info in that case. The signal information code however forgot
that check. Thus users will see a message in syslog indicating that
converting the sid to string failed. Add the right check.

Commit b05d8447e7 (audit: inline audit_syscall_entry to reduce
burden on archs) changed audit_syscall_entry to check for a dummy
context before calling __audit_syscall_entry. Unfortunately the dummy
context state is maintained in __audit_syscall_entry so once set it
never gets cleared, even if the audit rules change.
As a result, if there are no auditing rules when a process starts
then it will never be subject to any rules added later. x86 doesn't
see this because it has an assembly fast path that calls directly into
__audit_syscall_entry.
I noticed this issue when working on audit performance optimisations.
I wrote a set of simple test cases available at:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/audit_tests.tar.gz
02_new_rule.py fails without the patch and passes with it. The
test case clears all rules, starts a process, adds a rule then
verifies the process produces a syscall audit record.

Commit c060f943d0 ("mm: use aligned zone start for pfn_to_bitidx
calculation") fixed out calculation of the index into the pageblock
bitmap when a !SPARSEMEM zome was not aligned to pageblock_nr_pages.
However, the _allocation_ of that bitmap had never taken this alignment
requirement into accout, so depending on the exact size and alignment of
the zone, the use of that index could then access past the allocation,
resulting in some very subtle memory corruption.
This was reported (and bisected) by Ingo Molnar: one of his random
config builds would hang with certain very specific kernel command line
options.
In the meantime, commit c060f943d0 has been marked for stable, so this
fix needs to be back-ported to the stable kernels that backported the
commit to use the right alignment.

Petr says: "
I've analysed the bug and I think that xen_iret() cannot cope with
mangled DS, in this case zeroed out (null selector/descriptor) by either
xen_failsafe_callback() or RESTORE_REGS because the corresponding LDT
entry was invalidated by the reproducer. "
Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves
this problem:
"This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by
IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null
one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would
cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel
as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)."
The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the
registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the
%cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are
inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is
the approach taken in this patch.
Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on
the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses
the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and
would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra
instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used
as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if
further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention
and lead to accidents.

Mostly mirrors the s390 logic, as unlike x86 we don't need the
SetPageReferenced() bits.
On sparc64 we also lack a user/privileged bit in the huge PMDs.
In order to make this work for THP and non-THP builds, some header
file adjustments were necessary. Namely, provide the PMD_HUGE_* bit
defines and the pmd_large() inline unconditionally rather than
protected by TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.

"This is primarily to get those r8169 reverts sorted, but other fixes
have accumulated meanwhile.
1) Revert two r8169 changes to fix suspend/resume for some users,
from Francois Romieu.
2) PCI dma mapping errors in atl1c are not checked for and this cause
hard crashes for some users, from Xiong Huang.
3) In 3.8.x we merged the removal of the EXPERIMENTAL dependency for
'dlm' but the same patch for 'sctp' got lost somewhere, resulting
in the potential for build errors since there are cross
dependencies. From Kees Cook.
4) SCTP's ipv6 socket route validation makes boolean tests
incorrectly, fix from Daniel Borkmann.
5) mac80211 does sizeof(ptr) instead of (sizeof(ptr) * nelem), from
Cong Ding.
6) arp_rcv() can crash on shared non-linear packets, from Eric
Dumazet.
7) Avoid crashes in macvtap by setting ->gso_type consistently in
ixgbe, qlcnic, and bnx2x drivers. From Michael S Tsirkin and
Alexander Duyck.
8) Trinity fuzzer spots infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram(), fix
from Eric Dumazet.
9) STP protocol frames should use high packet priority, otherwise an
overloaded bridge can get stuck. From Stephen Hemminger.
10) The HTB packet scheduler was converted some time ago to store
internal timestamps in nanoseconds, but we don't convert back into
psched ticks for the user during dumps. Fix from Jiri Pirko.
11) mwl8k channel table doesn't set the .band field properly,
resulting in NULL pointer derefs. Fix from Jonas Gorski.
12) mac80211 doesn't accumulate channels properly during a scan so we
can downgrade heavily to a much less desirable connection speed.
Fix from Johannes Berg.
13) PHY probe failure in stmmac can result in resource leaks and
double MDIO registery later, from Giuseppe CAVALLARO.
14) Correct ipv6 checksumming in ip6t_NPT netfilter module, also fix
address prefix mangling, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki."

"One (hopefully) last batch of x86 fixes. You asked for the patch by
patch justifications, so here they are:
x86, MCE: Retract most UAPI exports
This one unexports from userspace a bunch of definitions which should
never have been exported. We really don't want to create an
accidental legacy here.
x86, doc: Add a bootloader ID for OVMF
This is a documentation-only patch, just recording the official
assignment of a boot loader ID.
x86: Do not leak kernel page mapping locations
Security: avoid making it needlessly easy for user space to probe the
kernel memory layout.
x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel address
Prevent failures using /proc/kcore when using 1G pages.
x86/apic: Work around boot failure on HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server systems
Works around a BIOS problem causing boot failures on affected hardware."

Devices are added to pci_pme_list when drivers use pci_enable_wake()
or pci_wake_from_d3(), but they aren't removed from the list unless
the driver explicitly disables wakeup. Many drivers never disable
wakeup, so their devices remain on the list even after they are
removed, e.g., via hotplug. A subsequent PME poll will oops when
it tries to touch the device.
This patch disables PME# on a device before removing it, which removes
the device from pci_pme_list. This is safe even if the device never
had PME# enabled.
This oops can be triggered by unplugging a Thunderbolt ethernet adapter
on a Macbook Pro, as reported by Daniel below.

We walk through the bind address list and try to get the best source
address for a given destination. However, currently, we take the
'continue' path of the loop when an entry is invalid (!laddr->valid)
*and* the entry state does not equal SCTP_ADDR_SRC (laddr->state !=
SCTP_ADDR_SRC).
Thus, still, invalid entries with SCTP_ADDR_SRC might not 'continue'
as well as valid entries with SCTP_ADDR_{NEW, SRC, DEL}, with a possible
false baddr and matchlen as a result, causing in worst case dst route
to be false or possibly NULL.
This test should actually be a '||' instead of '&&'. But lets fix it
and make this a bit easier to read by having the condition the same way
as similarly done in sctp_v4_get_dst.

An entry in DAT with the hashed position of 0 can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when the first entry is checked by batadv_choose_next_candidate.
This first candidate automatically has the max value of 0 and the max_orig_node
of NULL. Not checking max_orig_node for NULL in batadv_is_orig_node_eligible
will lead to a NULL pointer dereference when checking for the lowest address.
This problem was added in 785ea11441
("batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functions").

A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110
[...]
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370

[<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0
[<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.
The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.
This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.
Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.
