commit e4d8a29997731b3bb14059024b24df9f784288d0 upstream.

If we pass too short string to "hex2bin" (and the string size without
the terminating NUL character is even), "hex2bin" reads one byte after
the terminating NUL character.  This patch fixes it.

Note that hex_to_bin returns -1 on error and hex2bin return -EINVAL on
error - so we can't just return the variable "hi" or "lo" on error.
This inconsistency may be fixed in the next merge window, but for the
purpose of fixing this bug, we just preserve the existing behavior and
return -1 and -EINVAL.

<title>hex2bin: make the function hex_to_bin constant-time</title>

commit e5be15767e7e284351853cbaba80cde8620341fb upstream.

The function hex2bin is used to load cryptographic keys into device
mapper targets dm-crypt and dm-integrity.  It should take constant time
independent on the processed data, so that concurrently running
unprivileged code can't infer any information about the keys via
microarchitectural convert channels.

This patch changes the function hex_to_bin so that it contains no
branches and no memory accesses.

Note that this shouldn't cause performance degradation because the size
of the new function is the same as the size of the old function (on
x86-64) - and the new function causes no branch misprediction penalties.

I compile-tested this function with gcc on aarch64 alpha arm hppa hppa64
i386 ia64 m68k mips32 mips64 powerpc powerpc64 riscv sh4 s390x sparc32
sparc64 x86_64 and with clang on aarch64 arm hexagon i386 mips32 mips64
powerpc powerpc64 s390x sparc32 sparc64 x86_64 to verify that there are
no branches in the generated code.

<title>XArray: Disallow sibling entries of nodes</title>

[ Upstream commit 63b1898fffcd8bd81905b95104ecc52b45a97e21 ]

There is a race between xas_split() and xas_load() which can result in
the wrong page being returned, and thus data corruption.  Fortunately,
it's hard to hit (syzbot took three months to find it) and often guarded
with VM_BUG_ON().

The anatomy of this race is:

thread A			thread B
order-9 page is stored at index 0x200
				lookup of page at index 0x274
page split starts
				load of sibling entry at offset 9
stores nodes at offsets 8-15
				load of entry at offset 8

The entry at offset 8 turns out to be a node, and so we descend into it,
and load the page at index 0x234 instead of 0x274.  This is hard to fix
on the split side; we could replace the entire node that contains the
order-9 page instead of replacing the eight entries.  Fixing it on
the lookup side is easier; just disallow sibling entries that point
to nodes.  This cannot ever be a useful thing as the descent would not
know the correct offset to use within the new node.

The test suite continues to pass, but I have not added a new test for
this bug.

<title>lz4: fix LZ4_decompress_safe_partial read out of bound</title>

commit eafc0a02391b7b36617b36c97c4b5d6832cf5e24 upstream.

When partialDecoding, it is EOF if we've either filled the output buffer
or can't proceed with reading an offset for following match.

In some extreme corner cases when compressed data is suitably corrupted,
UAF will occur.  As reported by KASAN [1], LZ4_decompress_safe_partial
may lead to read out of bound problem during decoding.  lz4 upstream has
fixed it [2] and this issue has been disscussed here [3] before.

current decompression routine was ported from lz4 v1.8.3, bumping
lib/lz4 to v1.9.+ is certainly a huge work to be done later, so, we'd
better fix it first.

<title>XArray: Update the LRU list in xas_split()</title>

commit 3ed4bb77156da0bc732847c8c9df92454c1fbeea upstream.

When splitting a value entry, we may need to add the new nodes to the LRU
list and remove the parent node from the LRU list.  The WARN_ON checks
in shadow_lru_isolate() catch this oversight.  This bug was latent
until we stopped splitting folios in shrink_page_list() with commit
820c4e2e6f51 ("mm/vmscan: Free non-shmem folios without splitting them").
That allows the creation of large shadow entries, and subsequently when
trying to page in a small page, we will split the large shadow entry
in __filemap_add_folio().

commit 3ed4bb77156da0bc732847c8c9df92454c1fbeea upstream.

When splitting a value entry, we may need to add the new nodes to the LRU
list and remove the parent node from the LRU list.  The WARN_ON checks
in shadow_lru_isolate() catch this oversight.  This bug was latent
until we stopped splitting folios in shrink_page_list() with commit
820c4e2e6f51 ("mm/vmscan: Free non-shmem folios without splitting them").
That allows the creation of large shadow entries, and subsequently when
trying to page in a small page, we will split the large shadow entry
in __filemap_add_folio().

<title>XArray: Fix xas_create_range() when multi-order entry present</title>

commit 3e3c658055c002900982513e289398a1aad4a488 upstream.

If there is already an entry present that is of order &gt;= XA_CHUNK_SHIFT
when we call xas_create_range(), xas_create_range() will misinterpret
that entry as a node and dereference xa_node-&gt;parent, generally leading
to a crash that looks something like this:

general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001:
0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
CPU: 0 PID: 32 Comm: khugepaged Not tainted 5.17.0-rc8-syzkaller-00003-g56e337f2cf13 #0
RIP: 0010:xa_parent_locked include/linux/xarray.h:1207 [inline]
RIP: 0010:xas_create_range+0x2d9/0x6e0 lib/xarray.c:725

It's deterministically reproducable once you know what the problem is,
but producing it in a live kernel requires khugepaged to hit a race.
While the problem has been present since xas_create_range() was
introduced, I'm not aware of a way to hit it before the page cache was
converted to use multi-index entries.

[ Upstream commit 5a06fcb15b43d1f7bf740c672950122331cb5655 ]

test_kernel_ptr() uses access_ok() to figure out if a given address
points to user space instead of kernel space. However on architectures
that set CONFIG_ALTERNATE_USER_ADDRESS_SPACE, a pointer can be valid
for both, and the check always fails because access_ok() returns true.

Make the check for user space pointers conditional on the type of
address space layout.
