commit b94e4b147fd1992ad450e1fea1fdaa3738753373 upstream.

Today blkfront will trust the backend to send only sane response data.
In order to avoid privilege escalations or crashes in case of malicious
backends verify the data to be within expected limits. Especially make
sure that the response always references an outstanding request.

Introduce a new state of the ring BLKIF_STATE_ERROR which will be
switched to in case an inconsistency is being detected. Recovering from
this state is possible only via removing and adding the virtual device
again (e.g. via a suspend/resume cycle).

Make all warning messages issued due to valid error responses rate
limited in order to avoid message floods being triggered by a malicious
backend.

commit 8f5a695d99000fc3aa73934d7ced33cfc64dcdab upstream.

In order to avoid a malicious backend being able to influence the local
copy of a request build the request locally first and then copy it to
the ring page instead of doing it the other way round as today.

In order to avoid problems in case the backend is modifying a response
on the ring page while the frontend has already seen it, just read the
response into a local buffer in one go and then operate on that buffer
only.

snprintf() returns the number of bytes it would have printed if there
were space.  But it does not count the NUL terminator.  So that means
that if "count == copied" then this has already overflowed by one
character.

This bug likely isn't super harmful in real life.

<title>block: ataflop: fix breakage introduced at blk-mq refactoring</title>

[ Upstream commit 86d46fdaa12ae5befc16b8d73fc85a3ca0399ea6 ]

Refactoring of the Atari floppy driver when converting to blk-mq
has broken the state machine in not-so-subtle ways:

finish_fdc() must be called when operations on the floppy device
have completed. This is crucial in order to relase the ST-DMA
lock, which protects against concurrent access to the ST-DMA
controller by other drivers (some DMA related, most just related
to device register access - broken beyond compare, I know).

When rewriting the driver's old do_request() function, the fact
that finish_fdc() was called only when all queued requests had
completed appears to have been overlooked. Instead, the new
request function calls finish_fdc() immediately after the last
request has been queued. finish_fdc() executes a dummy seek after
most requests, and this overwrites the state machine's interrupt
hander that was set up to wait for completion of the read/write
request just prior. To make matters worse, finish_fdc() is called
before device interrupts are re-enabled, making certain that the
read/write interupt is missed.

Shifting the finish_fdc() call into the read/write request
completion handler ensures the driver waits for the request to
actually complete. With a queue depth of 2, we won't see long
request sequences, so calling finish_fdc() unconditionally just
adds a little overhead for the dummy seeks, and keeps the code
simple.

While we're at it, kill ataflop_commit_rqs() which does nothing
but run finish_fdc() unconditionally, again likely wiping out an
in-flight request.

[ Upstream commit b1a811633f7321cf1ae2bb76a66805b7720e44c9 ]

Syzbot hit WARNING in internal_create_group(). The problem was in
too big disk-&gt;first_minor.

disk-&gt;first_minor is initialized by value, which comes from userspace
and there wasn't any sanity checks about value correctness. It can cause
duplicate creation of sysfs files/links, because disk-&gt;first_minor will
be passed to MKDEV() which causes truncation to byte. Since maximum
minor value is 0xff, let's check if first_minor is correct minor number.

NOTE: the root case of the reported warning was in wrong error handling
in register_disk(), but we can avoid passing knowingly wrong values to
sysfs API, because sysfs error messages can confuse users. For example:
user passed 1048576 as index, but sysfs complains about duplicate
creation of /dev/block/43:0. It's not obvious how 1048576 becomes 0.
Log and reproducer for above example can be found on syzkaller bug
report page.

commit c7e9d0020361f4308a70cdfd6d5335e273eb8717 upstream.

The patch breaks userspace implementations (e.g. fdutils) and introduces
regressions in behaviour. Previously, it was possible to O_NDELAY open a
floppy device with no media inserted or with write protected media without
an error. Some userspace tools use this particular behavior for probing.

It's not the first time when we revert this patch. Previous revert is in
commit f2791e7eadf4 (Revert "floppy: refactor open() flags handling").

This reverts commit 8a0c014cd20516ade9654fc13b51345ec58e7be8.

[ Upstream commit cddce01160582a5f52ada3da9626c052d852ec42 ]

There is a race between iterating over requests in
nbd_clear_que() and completing requests in recv_work(),
which can lead to double completion of a request.

To fix it, flush the recv worker before iterating over
the requests and don't abort the completed request
while iterating.

Fixes: 96d97e17828f ("nbd: clear_sock on netlink disconnect")
