[PATCH v2 0/5] platform/chrome: Fix a possible UAF via revocable

by Tzung-Bi Shih

This is a follow-up series of [1]. It tries to fix a possible UAF in the fops of cros_ec_chardev after the underlying protocol device has gone by using revocable. The 1st patch introduces the revocable which is an implementation of ideas from the talk [2]. The 2nd and 3rd patches add test cases for revocable in Kunit and selftest. The 4th patch converts existing protocol devices to resource providers of cros_ec_device. The 5th patch converts cros_ec_chardev to a resource consumer of cros_ec_device to fix the UAF.

Re: [PATCH v2 13/20] x86/mm: enable page table sharing

by Yongting Lin

Thank you! Anthony. Yep, I checked the comments in arch/mm/x86/fault.c file which says as your advices in previous email. I changed my code in kernel 5.5 as below: if (unlikely(is_shared_vma) && ((fault & VM_FAULT_RETRY) && (flags & FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) || fault_signal_pending(fault, regs))) mmap_read_unlock(mm); BTW: I wrote some selftests in my github repostory, which perform the basic function of mshare, and I will write some complicated cases to support the new functions or defect found in mshare. For example, once you support mshare as a VMA in KVM (just as the defeat viewed by Jann Horn), I will add extra test cases to verify its correctiness for this scenario. From Jann Horn's review: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAG48ez3cUZf+xOtP6UkkS2-CmOeo+3K5pvny0AFL_XBkHh… Currently, I put my selftest in my github repostory, and you could retrieve it as below: git remote add yongting-mshare-selftests https://github.com/ivanalgo/linux-kernel-develop/ git fetch yongting-mshare-selftests dev-mshare-v2-selftest-v1 git cherry-pick a64f2ff6497d13c09badc0fc68c44d9995bc2fef At this stage, I am not sure what is the best way to proceed: - Should I send them as part of your next version (v3)? - Or should I post them separately as [RFC PATCH] for early review? Please let me know your preference and any sugestion is welcome. I am happy to rebase and resend in the format that works best for the community.

[PATCH net-next] selftests: drv-net: tso: increase the retransmit threshold

by Jakub Kicinski

We see quite a few flakes during the TSO test against virtualized devices in NIPA. There's often 10-30 retransmissions during the test. Sometimes as many as 100. Set the retransmission threshold at 1/4th of the wire frame target.
