KVM: x86: Reject Hyper-V's SENDIPI hypercalls if local APIC isn't in-kernel

Advertise support for Hyper-V's SENDIPI and SENDIPIEX hypercalls if and only if the local API is emulated/virtualized by KVM, and explicitly reject said hypercalls if the local APIC is emulated in userspace, i.e. don't rely on userspace to opt-in to KVMCAPHYPERVENFORCECPUID.

Rejecting SENDIPI and SENDIPIEX fixes a NULL-pointer dereference if Hyper-V enlightenments are exposed to the guest without an in-kernel local APIC:

syzbot created an SA with usersa.sel.family = AFUNSPEC usersa.sel.prefixlens = 128 usersa.family = AFINET

Because of the AFUNSPEC selector, verifynewsainfo doesn't put limits on prefixlen{s,d}. But then copyfromuserstate sets x->sel.family to usersa.family (AFINET). Do the same conversion in verifynewsainfo before validating prefixlen{s,d}, since that's how prefixlen is going to be used later on.

Input: uinput - reject requests with unreasonable number of slots

When exercising uinput interface syzkaller may try setting up device with a really large number of slots, which causes memory allocation failure in inputmtinitslots(). While this allocation failure is handled properly and request is rejected, it results in syzkaller reports. Additionally, such request may put undue burden on the system which will try to free a lot of memory for a bogus request.

Fix it by limiting allowed number of slots to 100. This can easily be extended if we see devices that can track more than 100 contacts.

x86/mtrr: Check if fixed MTRRs exist before saving them

MTRRs have an obsolete fixed variant for fine grained caching control of the 640K-1MB region that uses separate MSRs. This fixed variant has a separate capability bit in the MTRR capability MSR.

So far all x86 CPUs which support MTRR have this separate bit set, so it went unnoticed that mtrrsavestate() does not check the capability bit before accessing the fixed MTRR MSRs.

Though on a CPU that does not support the fixed MTRR capability this results in a #GP. The #GP itself is harmless because the RDMSR fault is handled gracefully, but results in a WARNON().

Add the missing capability check to prevent this.

x86/mm: Fix pticlonepgtable() alignment assumption

Guenter reported dodgy crashes on an i386-nosmp build using GCC-11 that had the form of endless traps until entry stack exhaust and then #DF from the stack guard.

It turned out that pticlonepgtable() had alignment assumptions on the start address, notably it hard assumes start is PMD aligned. This is true on x8664, but very much not true on i386.

These assumptions can cause the end condition to malfunction, leading to a 'short' clone. Guess what happens when the user mapping has a short copy of the entry text?

Use the correct increment form for addr to avoid alignment assumptions.

ext4: check dot and dotdot of dxroot before making dir indexed

Syzbot reports a issue as follows: ============================================ BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffed11022e24fe PGD 23ffee067 P4D 23ffee067 PUD 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI CPU: 0 PID: 5079 Comm: syz-executor306 Not tainted 6.10.0-rc5-g55027e689933 #0 Call Trace: <TASK> makeindexeddir+0xdaf/0x13c0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2341 ext4addentry+0x222a/0x25d0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2451 ext4rename fs/ext4/namei.c:3936 [inline] ext4rename2+0x26e5/0x4370 fs/ext4/namei.c:4214 [...] ============================================

The immediate cause of this problem is that there is only one valid dentry for the block to be split during dosplit, so split==0 results in out of bounds accesses to the map triggering the issue.

dosplit unsigned split dxmakemap count = 1 split = count/2 = 0; continued = hash2 == map[split - 1].hash; ---> map[4294967295]

The maximum length of a filename is 255 and the minimum block size is 1024, so it is always guaranteed that the number of entries is greater than or equal to 2 when dosplit() is called.

But syzbot's crafted image has no dot and dotdot in dir, and the dentry distribution in dirblock is as follows:

bus dentry1 hole dentry2 free |xx--|xx-------------|...............|xx-------------|...............| 0 12 (8+248)=256 268 256 524 (8+256)=264 788 236 1024

So when renaming dentry1 increases its namelen length by 1, neither hole nor free is sufficient to hold the new dentry, and makeindexeddir() is called.

In makeindexeddir() it is assumed that the first two entries of the dirblock must be dot and dotdot, so bus and dentry1 are left in dxroot because they are treated as dot and dotdot, and only dentry2 is moved to the new leaf block. That's why count is equal to 1.

Therefore add the ext4checkdxroot() helper function to add more sanity checks to dot and dotdot before starting the conversion to avoid the above issue.

mm: avoid overflows in dirty throttling logic

The dirty throttling logic is interspersed with assumptions that dirty limits in PAGESIZE units fit into 32-bit (so that various multiplications fit into 64-bits). If limits end up being larger, we will hit overflows, possible divisions by 0 etc. Fix these problems by never allowing so large dirty limits as they have dubious practical value anyway. For dirtybytes / dirtybackgroundbytes interfaces we can just refuse to set so large limits. For dirtyratio / dirtybackgroundratio it isn't so simple as the dirty limit is computed from the amount of available memory which can change due to memory hotplug etc. So when converting dirty limits from ratios to numbers of pages, we just don't allow the result to exceed UINTMAX.

This is root-only triggerable problem which occurs when the operator sets dirty limits to >16 TB.

x86: stop playing stack games in profilepc()

The 'profilepc()' function is used for timer-based profiling, which isn't really all that relevant any more to begin with, but it also ends up making assumptions based on the stack layout that aren't necessarily valid.

Basically, the code tries to account the time spent in spinlocks to the caller rather than the spinlock, and while I support that as a concept, it's not worth the code complexity or the KASAN warnings when no serious profiling is done using timers anyway these days.

And the code really does depend on stack layout that is only true in the simplest of cases. We've lost the comment at some point (I think when the 32-bit and 64-bit code was unified), but it used to say:

Assume the lock function has either no stack frame or a copy of eflags from PUSHF.

which explains why it just blindly loads a word or two straight off the stack pointer and then takes a minimal look at the values to just check if they might be eflags or the return pc:

Eflags always has bits 22 and up cleared unlike kernel addresses

but that basic stack layout assumption assumes that there isn't any lock debugging etc going on that would complicate the code and cause a stack frame.

It causes KASAN unhappiness reported for years by syzkaller [1] and others [2].

With no real practical reason for this any more, just remove the code.

Just for historical interest, here's some background commits relating to this code from 2006:

0cb91a229364 ("i386: Account spinlocks to the caller during profiling for !FP kernels") 31679f38d886 ("Simplify profilepc on x86-64")

and a code unification from 2009:

ip6dstidev() can return NULL, xfrm6getsaddr() must act accordingly.

wifi: mac80211: Fix deadlock in ieee80211stapsdeliverwakeup()

The ieee80211stapsdeliverwakeup() function takes sta->pslock to synchronizes with ieee80211txhunicastpsbuf() which is called from softirq context. However using only spinlock() to get sta->pslock in ieee80211stapsdeliverwakeup() does not prevent softirq to execute on this same CPU, to run ieee80211txhunicastpsbuf() and try to take this same lock ending in deadlock. Below is an example of rcu stall that arises in such situation.

wifi: mac80211: mesh: Fix leak of meshpreqqueue objects

The hwmp code use objects of type meshpreqqueue, added to a list in ieee80211ifmesh, to keep track of mpath we need to resolve. If the mpath gets deleted, ex mesh interface is removed, the entries in that list will never get cleaned. Fix this by flushing all corresponding items of the preqqueue in meshpathflushpending().

This should take care of KASAN reports like this:

Syzkaller hit a warning [1] in a call to implement() when trying to write a value into a field of smaller size in an output report.

Since implement() already has a warn message printed out with the help of hidwarn() and value in question gets trimmed with: ... value &= m; ... WARNON may be considered superfluous. Remove it to suppress future syzkaller triggers.

ipv6: sr: fix memleak in seg6hmacinitalgo

seg6hmacinitalgo returns without cleaning up the previous allocations if one fails, so it's going to leak all that memory and the crypto tfms.

Update seg6hmacexit to only free the memory when allocated, so we can reuse the code directly.
