commit b5c8afe5be51078a979d86ae5ae78c4ac948063d upstream.

"origPtr" is used as an offset into the bd-&gt;dbuf[] array.  That array is
allocated in start_bunzip() and has "bd-&gt;dbufSize" number of elements so
the test here should be &gt;= instead of &gt;.

Later we check "origPtr" again before using it as an offset so I don't
know if this bug can be triggered in real life.

Fixes: bc22c17e12c1 ('bzip2/lzma: library support for gzip, bzip2 and lzma decompression')

commit e7b563bb2a6f4d974208da46200784b9c5b5a47e upstream.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for
example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area
surrounding a fault.

It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is
"empty tree slot".  But this is about to change, though, as shadow page
descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get
evicted from memory.

Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache
operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition
of "page cache hole".

commit 53c59f262d747ea82e7414774c59a489501186a0 upstream.

Provide a function that does not just delete an entry at a given index,
but also allows passing in an expected item.  Delete only if that item
is still located at the specified index.

This is handy when lockless tree traversals want to delete entries as
well because they don't have to do an second, locked lookup to verify
the slot has not changed under them before deleting the entry.

commit ea5d05b34aca25c066e0699512d0ffbd8ee6ac3e upstream.

If __bitmap_shift_left() or __bitmap_shift_right() are asked to shift by
a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, they will try to shift a long value by
BITS_PER_LONG bits which is undefined.  Change the functions to avoid
the undefined shift.

commit d4c5efdb97773f59a2b711754ca0953f24516739 upstream.

zatimend has reported that in his environment (3.16/gcc4.8.3/corei7)
memset() calls which clear out sensitive data in extract_{buf,entropy,
entropy_user}() in random driver are being optimized away by gcc.

Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants)
that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is
being cleared out in the end. Other use cases might also be in crypto
code. [ I have put this into lib/string.c though, as it's always built-in
and doesn't need any dependencies then. ]

Fixes kernel bugzilla: 82041

<title>lzo: check for length overrun in variable length encoding.</title>

commit 72cf90124e87d975d0b2114d930808c58b4c05e4 upstream.

This fix ensures that we never meet an integer overflow while adding
255 while parsing a variable length encoding. It works differently from
commit 206a81c ("lzo: properly check for overruns") because instead of
ensuring that we don't overrun the input, which is tricky to guarantee
due to many assumptions in the code, it simply checks that the cumulated
number of 255 read cannot overflow by bounding this number.

The MAX_255_COUNT is the maximum number of times we can add 255 to a base
count without overflowing an integer. The multiply will overflow when
multiplying 255 by more than MAXINT/255. The sum will overflow earlier
depending on the base count. Since the base count is taken from a u8
and a few bits, it is safe to assume that it will always be lower than
or equal to 2*255, thus we can always prevent any overflow by accepting
two less 255 steps.

This patch also reduces the CPU overhead and actually increases performance
by 1.1% compared to the initial code, while the previous fix costs 3.1%
(measured on x86_64).

The fix needs to be backported to all currently supported stable kernels.

commit af958a38a60c7ca3d8a39c918c1baa2ff7b6b233 upstream.

This reverts commit 206a81c ("lzo: properly check for overruns").

As analysed by Willem Pinckaers, this fix is still incomplete on
certain rare corner cases, and it is easier to restart from the
original code.

commit a75f232ce0fe38bd01301899ecd97ffd0254316a upstream.

Add plist_requeue(), which moves the specified plist_node after all other
same-priority plist_nodes in the list.  This is essentially an optimized
plist_del() followed by plist_add().

This is needed by swap, which (with the next patch in this set) uses a
plist of available swap devices.  When a swap device (either a swap
partition or swap file) are added to the system with swapon(), the device
is added to a plist, ordered by the swap device's priority.  When swap
needs to allocate a page from one of the swap devices, it takes the page
from the first swap device on the plist, which is the highest priority
swap device.  The swap device is left in the plist until all its pages are
used, and then removed from the plist when it becomes full.

However, as described in man 2 swapon, swap must allocate pages from swap
devices with the same priority in round-robin order; to do this, on each
swap page allocation, swap uses a page from the first swap device in the
plist, and then calls plist_requeue() to move that swap device entry to
after any other same-priority swap devices.  The next swap page allocation
will again use a page from the first swap device in the plist and requeue
it, and so on, resulting in round-robin usage of equal-priority swap
devices.

Also add plist_test_requeue() test function, for use by plist_test() to
test plist_requeue() function.

<title>KEYS: Fix termination condition in assoc array garbage collection</title>

commit 95389b08d93d5c06ec63ab49bd732b0069b7c35e upstream.

This fixes CVE-2014-3631.

It is possible for an associative array to end up with a shortcut node at the
root of the tree if there are more than fan-out leaves in the tree, but they
all crowd into the same slot in the lowest level (ie. they all have the same
first nibble of their index keys).

When assoc_array_gc() returns back up the tree after scanning some leaves, it
can fall off of the root and crash because it assumes that the back pointer
from a shortcut (after label ascend_old_tree) must point to a normal node -
which isn't true of a shortcut node at the root.

Should we find we're ascending rootwards over a shortcut, we should check to
see if the backpointer is zero - and if it is, we have completed the scan.

This particular bug cannot occur if the root node is not a shortcut - ie. if
you have fewer than 17 keys in a keyring or if you have at least two keys that
sit into separate slots (eg. a keyring and a non keyring).

This can be reproduced by:

	ring=`keyctl newring bar @s`
	for ((i=1; i&lt;=18; i++)); do last_key=`keyctl newring foo$i $ring`; done
	keyctl timeout $last_key 2

Doing this:

	echo 3 &gt;/proc/sys/kernel/keys/gc_delay

first will speed things up.

If we do fall off of the top of the tree, we get the following oops:

commit 27419604f51a97d497853f14142c1059d46eb597 upstream.

An edit script should be considered inaccessible by a function once it has
called assoc_array_apply_edit() or assoc_array_cancel_edit().

However, assoc_array_gc() is accessing the edit script just after the
gc_complete: label.
