[PATCH 5.4 5.10 5.15 6.1 0/3] nilfs2: fix potential kernel BUG on rename operations

by Ryusuke Konishi

Please apply this series to these stable trees. This series makes it possible to backport the fix for the BUG_ON check failure on rename operations reported by syzbot. The first two patches are for dependency resolution. Patch 3/3 is the target patch, and it has been tailored to avoid extensive page/folio conversion. This patch set has been tested against the latest stable kernels listed in the subject prefix. Thanks, Ryusuke Konishi Ryusuke Konishi (3): nilfs2: move page release outside of nilfs_delete_entry and nilfs_set_link nilfs2: eliminate staggered calls to kunmap in nilfs_rename nilfs2: handle errors that nilfs_prepare_chunk() may return fs/nilfs2/dir.c | 24 +++++++++++------------- fs/nilfs2/namei.c | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++----------------- fs/nilfs2/nilfs.h | 10 ++++++++-- 3 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 32 deletions(-) -- 2.43.5

[PATCH 6.1] Squashfs: check the inode number is not the invalid value of zero

by Xiangyu Chen

From: Phillip Lougher <phillip(a)squashfs.org.uk> [ upstream commit 9253c54e01b6505d348afbc02abaa4d9f8a01395 ] Syskiller has produced an out of bounds access in fill_meta_index(). That out of bounds access is ultimately caused because the inode has an inode number with the invalid value of zero, which was not checked. The reason this causes the out of bounds access is due to following sequence of events: 1. Fill_meta_index() is called to allocate (via empty_meta_index()) and fill a metadata index. It however suffers a data read error and aborts, invalidating the newly returned empty metadata index. It does this by setting the inode number of the index to zero, which means unused (zero is not a valid inode number). 2. When fill_meta_index() is subsequently called again on another read operation, locate_meta_index() returns the previous index because it matches the inode number of 0. Because this index has been returned it is expected to have been filled, and because it hasn't been, an out of bounds access is performed. This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the inode number is not zero when the inode is created and returns -EINVAL if it is.

[PATCH] drm/msm: fix a potential memory leak issue in submit_create()

by Haoxiang Li

The memory allocated by msm_fence_alloc() actually is the container of msm_fence_alloc()'s return value. Thus, just free its return value is not enough. Add a helper 'msm_fence_free()' in msm_fence.h/msm_fence.c to do the complete job.

[PATCH v7 1/3] x86/paravirt: Move halt paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARAVIRT

by Vishal Annapurve

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov(a)linux.intel.com> CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL is mainly defined/used by XEN PV guests. For other VM guest types, features supported under CONFIG_PARAVIRT are self sufficient. CONFIG_PARAVIRT mainly provides support for TLB flush operations and time related operations. For TDX guest as well, paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARVIRT meets most of its requirement except the need of HLT and SAFE_HLT paravirt calls, which is currently defined under CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL. Since enabling CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL is too bloated for TDX guest like platforms, move HLT and SAFE_HLT paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARAVIRT. Moving HLT and SAFE_HLT paravirt calls are not fatal and should not break any functionality for current users of CONFIG_PARAVIRT.

Thus, put_device() should be used rather than kfree(). Add "mport->net = NULL;" to avoid a use after free issue.

Unknown bug in linux-6.13.x running qemu

by Klaus Dittrich

I discovered a bug that appears in any 6.13 kernel within quemu but not in any 6.12 kernel. I use quemu-9.2.2 to run windows10 in it and there I use a program called sprint-layout-6.0. This program saves and loads his files via samba, so I have them on my linux-ext4 disk and not in the disk-file quemu uses. It worked for years now and it still works with all 6.12.x kernels up to now. But it does not work with any 6.13.x kernel up to date. The bug shows up when I try to load a file from within this program, then the emulated windows10 pops up a window with "exeption 8000004". I do not know what this is trying to tell me, but under any 6.12.x and older kernels this did not happen. So I assume a bug in 6.13.x kernel is the cause. I also reported this to qemu but got now answer up to now. Any help is welcome, thanks. -- Best regards Klaus
