Modern kernel callback systems pass the structure associated with a
given callback to the callback function. The timer callback remains one
of the legacy cases where an arbitrary unsigned long argument continues
to be passed as the callback argument. This has several problems:
- This bloats the timer_list structure with a normally redundant
.data field.
- No type checking is being performed, forcing callbacks to do
explicit type casts of the unsigned long argument into the object
that was passed, rather than using container_of(), as done in most
of the other callback infrastructure.
- Neighboring buffer overflows can overwrite both the .function and
the .data field, providing attackers with a way to elevate from a buffer
overflow into a simplistic ROP-like mechanism that allows calling
arbitrary functions with a controlled first argument.
- For future Control Flow Integrity work, this creates a unique function
prototype for timer callbacks, instead of allowing them to continue to
be clustered with other void functions that take a single unsigned long
argument.
This adds a new timer initialization API, which will ultimately replace
the existing setup_timer(), setup_{deferrable,pinned,etc}_timer() family,
named timer_setup() (to mirror hrtimer_setup(), making instances of its
use much easier to grep for).
In order to support the migration of existing timers into the new
callback arguments, timer_setup() casts its arguments to the existing
legacy types, and explicitly passes the timer pointer as the legacy
data argument. Once all setup_*timer() callers have been replaced with
timer_setup(), the casts can be removed, and the data argument can be
dropped with the timer expiration code changed to just pass the timer
to the callback directly.
Since the regular pattern of using container_of() during local variable
declaration repeats the need for the variable type declaration
to be included, this adds a helper modeled after other from_*()
helpers that wrap container_of(), named from_timer(). This helper uses
typeof(*variable), removing the type redundancy and minimizing the need
for line wraps in forthcoming conversions from "unsigned data long" to
"struct timer_list *" in the timer callbacks:
-void callback(unsigned long data)
+void callback(struct timer_list *t)
{
- struct some_data_structure *local = (struct some_data_structure *)data;
+ struct some_data_structure *local = from_timer(local, t, timer);
Finally, in order to support the handful of timer users that perform
open-coded assignments of the .function (and .data) fields, provide
cast macros (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE and TIMER_DATA_TYPE) that can be used
temporarily. Once conversion has been completed, these can be globally
trivially removed.

[ Upstream commit 96e97bc07e ]
napi_disable() makes sure to set the NAPI_STATE_NPSVC bit to prevent
netpoll from accessing rings before init is complete. However, the
same is not done for fresh napi instances in netif_napi_add(),
even though we expect NAPI instances to be added as disabled.
This causes crashes during driver reconfiguration (enabling XDP,
changing the channel count) - if there is any printk() after
netif_napi_add() but before napi_enable().
To ensure memory ordering is correct we need to use RCU accessors.

With disabling bh in the whole sctp_get_port_local(), when
snum == 0 and too many ports have been used, the do-while
loop will take the cpu for a long time and cause cpu stuck:
[ ] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#11 stuck for 22s!
[ ] RIP: 0010:native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x4de/0x940
[ ] Call Trace:

There's no need to disable bh in the whole function of
sctp_get_port_local. So fix this cpu stuck by removing
local_bh_disable() called at the beginning, and using
spin_lock_bh() instead.
The same thing was actually done for inet_csk_get_port() in
Commit ea8add2b19 ("tcp/dccp: better use of ephemeral
ports in bind()").
Thanks to Marcelo for pointing the buggy code out.
v1->v2:
- use cond_resched() to yield cpu to other tasks if needed,
as Eric noticed.

[ Upstream commit d3b990b7f3 ]
This patch fixes two main problems seen when removing NetLabel
mappings: memory leaks and potentially extra audit noise.
The memory leaks are caused by not properly free'ing the mapping's
address selector struct when free'ing the entire entry as well as
not properly cleaning up a temporary mapping entry when adding new
address selectors to an existing entry. This patch fixes both these
problems such that kmemleak reports no NetLabel associated leaks
after running the SELinux test suite.
The potentially extra audit noise was caused by the auditing code in
netlbl_domhsh_remove_entry() being called regardless of the entry's
validity. If another thread had already marked the entry as invalid,
but not removed/free'd it from the list of mappings, then it was
possible that an additional mapping removal audit record would be
generated. This patch fixes this by returning early from the removal
function when the entry was previously marked invalid. This change
also had the side benefit of improving the code by decreasing the
indentation level of large chunk of code by one (accounting for most
of the diffstat).
