====================
selftests: net: add missing kconfig and settings
When trying to execute the same selftests targets as the ones executed
on NIPA, but using containers with minimal tools, I got some issues
with a few tests.
Most of these issues are due to missing kernel config, but also too
short timeout:
- For the kconfig, these issues were not visible on NIPA, because some
targets are executed in the same runner, using the same kernel: the
config files of the different targets are merged. On my side, I
followed the recommended way, and only used the config file on top of
a 'make defconfig', revealing some missing kconfig's.
- For the timeout, that was not visible on NIPA either because the
Netdev machines are very powerful and the timeout is doubled when
using a debug kernel config (ovpn case), or because there are some
custom values on the test branches only (drv-net).
While at it, add an extra patch to display an error message in case of
failure with some netconsole scripts.
====================
In these netconsole tests, bash is used with errexit (set -e). It means
that if the busywait timeout, the tests finish without printing an error
message.
It is fine to ignore these errors, because the following validate_xxx
helpers will check the content of the output file, and exit with an
appropriated error message, e.g. FAIL: File was not generated.
selftests: drv-net: add missing kconfig for psp.py
This psp.py selftest was failing on my side when only using the
drivers/net config file on top of the default one -- the recommended way
to execute selftest targets.
It looks like some kernel config are needed to execute the new tc
commands.
Note that this was not visible on NIPA, because these tests are executed
with the drivers/net/hw ones, combining the two config files, and the hw
one contains the missing ones.
The default timeout is 45 seconds, that's too low for the xdp.py test.
Indeed, this test can take up to 3 minutes with some debug kernel config
on NIPA. Set a timeout to 6 minutes, just to be on the safe side.
Note that the Fixes tag here points to the introduction of the xdp.py
test because I don't know when this test started to take more than 45
seconds. That's OK because a timeout of 6 minutes is not exaggerated.
The default timeout is 45 seconds, that's too low for a few ovpn tests.
Indeed, these tests can take up to 50 seconds with some debug kernel
config on NIPA. Set a timeout to 90 seconds, just to be on the safe
side.
Note that the Fixes tag here points to the introduction of the ovpn
tests because I don't know when they started to take more than 45
seconds. That's OK because a timeout of 1.5 minutes is not exaggerated.
- Virtual Ethernet are used between the different netns.
This has not been seen on NIPA before, because the 'ovpn' tests are
executed with the 'tcp_ao' ones, merging their config files. These two
kernel config are present in tools/testing/selftests/net/tcp_ao/config.
This issue is visible when only the ovpn config is used on top of the
default one. This is the recommended way to execute selftest targets.
The kselftests doc mentions that a config file should be present "if a
test needs specific kernel config options enabled". This selftest
requires some kernel config, but no config file was provided.
We could say that a sub-target could use the parent's config file, but
the kselftests doc doesn't mention anything about that. Plus the
net/openvswitch target is the only net target without a config file.
Here is a new config file, which is a trimmed version of the net one,
with hopefully the minimal required kconfig on top of 'make defconfig'.
The Fixes tag points to the introduction of the net/openvswitch target,
just to help validating this target on stable kernels.
This has not been seen on NIPA before, because the 'af_unix' tests are
executed with the 'net' ones, merging their config files. USER_NS is
present in tools/testing/selftests/net/config.
This issue is visible when only the af_unix config is used on top of the
default one. This is the recommended way to execute selftest targets.
tls: device: push pending open record on splice EOF
On kTLS device-offload sockets, sendfile() with count > EOF can reach
->splice_eof() with a fully assembled but still-open TLS record left
pending. tls_device_splice_eof() only flushes partially sent records,
so an abrupt close() can drop the final record and the peer receives
a short file.
Fix tls_device_splice_eof() to also push pending open records.
This matches the software path, where splice EOF already flushes
pending open records.

gve: fix Rx queue stall on alloc failure
When the system is under extreme memory pressure, page allocations can
fail during the Rx buffer refill loop. If the number of buffers posted
to hardware falls below a critical low threshold and the refill loop
exits due to allocation failures, the queue can stall:
1. The device drops incoming packets because there are no descriptors.
2. Since no packets are processed, no Rx completions are generated.
3. Because no completions occur, NAPI is never scheduled, preventing
the refill loop from running again even after memory is freed.
This results in a permanent queue stall.
Resolve this by introducing a starvation recovery timer for each Rx queue.
If the number of buffers posted to hardware falls below a critical low
threshold, start a timer to periodically reschedule NAPI. Once NAPI runs
and successfully refills the queue above the threshold, the timer is
not rescheduled.
The threshold is set to 32 because a single maximum-sized Receive Segment
Coalescing (RSC) packet can consume up to 19 descriptors in the Rx path.
Lower thresholds (such as 8 or 16) would be insufficient to process a
complete maximum-sized RSC packet, risking packet drops or unexpected
hardware behavior under memory pressure. Setting the threshold to 32
guarantees a safe margin to handle at least one full RSC packet.

regulator: core: clamp voltage constraints before applying apply_uV
machine_constraints_voltage() currently applies apply_uV against the
machine-supplied [min_uV, max_uV] range, and only afterwards clamps
that range down to what the regulator can actually supply (via
ops->list_voltage()).
If the machine-supplied range is wider than the regulator's actual
range, apply_uV's rounding can pick a selector outside the (correct)
clamped range, so the regulator ends up programmed outside its clamped
min/max. At bring-up this shows up as a voltage read-back outside the
clamped range.
Fix this by moving the clamping block ahead of the apply_uV block, so
apply_uV always targets an already-clamped range. Whether apply_uV
should run is decided from the unclamped constraints beforehand and
stored in a local bool, since clamping must not itself change whether
apply_uV fires.
No functional change to the clamping logic itself, only its position
relative to apply_uV. Its early return 0 exits become fallthroughs
since the apply_uV logic now follows it.

sctp: validate stream count in sctp_process_strreset_inreq()
When processing a RESET_IN_REQUEST from a peer,
sctp_process_strreset_inreq() derives the stream count from the
parameter length but does not check whether the resulting
RESET_OUT_REQUEST would exceed SCTP_MAX_CHUNK_LEN.
The OUT request header (sctp_strreset_outreq, 16 bytes) is 8 bytes
larger than the IN request header (sctp_strreset_inreq, 8 bytes).
Generally, the IP payload is bounded to 65535 bytes, so the stream
list cannot be large enough to trigger the overflow. However, on
interfaces with MTU > 65535 (e.g., loopback with IPv6 jumbograms), a
stream list that fits within the incoming IN parameter can cause a
__u16 overflow in sctp_make_strreset_req() when computing the OUT
request size, leading to an undersized skb allocation and a kernel
BUG:
The local setsockopt path validates the generated reset request size.
However, for an incoming-only reset, it accounts for the smaller IN
request even though the peer must generate an OUT request with the same
stream list. Such a request cannot be completed successfully by the
peer.
Reject peer IN requests whose corresponding OUT request would exceed
SCTP_MAX_CHUNK_LEN. Also tighten the local check so it does not send an
IN request that would require an oversized OUT request from the peer.

If the allocation fails, nsk is NULL.
The connection-refused path is entered when the listen state check

unconditionally calls iucv_sock_kill(nsk) in that path.
iucv_sock_kill() does not accept a NULL socket pointer and immediately
dereferences sk via sock_flag(sk, SOCK_ZAPPED). When nsk is NULL,
calling iucv_sock_kill(nsk) results in a NULL pointer dereference.
Only call iucv_sock_kill() when a child socket was successfully
allocated.
The Ethos-U85 supports an internal chaining buffer as temporary storage
between some operations. When chaining is activated, the IFM/OFM region
setting selects a chaining buffer rather than a region, and the IFM/OFM
base addresses don't matter. In this case, the feature matrix size
calculations should be skipped. Otherwise, the command stream will be
intermittently rejected depending on prior feature matrix base
addresses.

smb: client: handle STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK responses without a symlink target
The macOS built-in SMB server returns STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK for a
CREATE on a path whose final component is a symlink, but it does not
include a Symbolic Link Error Response in the error data: both
ErrorContextCount and ByteCount are zero, so the symlink target is not
present in the response at all. Per [MS-SMB2] section 2.2.2 such a
response should carry a valid Symbolic Link Error Response, so this is a
server bug, but the target can still be retrieved with
FSCTL_GET_REPARSE_POINT.
Frame from a capture against macOS 26.5.2 (build 25F84):
symlink_data() cannot find a struct smb2_symlink_err_rsp in such a
response and returns -EINVAL, which parse_create_response() propagates,
so smb2_query_path_info() bails out at
if (rc || !data->reparse_point)
goto out;
before it can retry with SMB2_OP_GET_REPARSE. stat(), readlink() and ls
of any server-side symlink then fail with -EINVAL:
$ ls -la Config
l????????? ? ? ? ? ? Config.json
$ stat Config/Config.json
stat: cannot statx 'Config/Config.json': Invalid argument
A 5.10 client resolves these symlinks correctly against the same server
and share, so this is a regression for Apple SMB servers.
Handle it in several places:
- symlink_data() detects the empty response (ErrorContextCount and
ByteCount both zero) and returns a distinct -ENODATA, so that "server
did not send the target" can be told apart from a genuinely malformed
response and only this case is worked around.
- parse_create_response() treats -ENODATA like
STATUS_IO_REPARSE_TAG_NOT_HANDLED, which does not carry the target
either: leave the reparse tag unset and clear rc, so the existing
SMB2_OP_GET_REPARSE path retrieves the target.
- smb2_query_path_info() only fixes up the symlink target type when the
target is already known. SMB2_OP_GET_REPARSE sets data->reparse.tag
but does not parse the target out of the reparse buffer; that happens
later, in reparse_info_to_fattr(). Without this check
smb2_fix_symlink_target_type() is called with a NULL target and
returns -EIO. This could not happen with servers that send the target
inline and therefore skip SMB2_OP_GET_REPARSE.
- smb2_open_file() maps -ENODATA to -EIO, matching
STATUS_IO_REPARSE_TAG_NOT_HANDLED, so its callers retrieve the target
with SMB2_OP_GET_REPARSE as well.
Tested on Debian 13, kernel 6.18.38 (armv7), against macOS 26.5.2:
symlinks now resolve, including relative, parent-traversing and directory
symlinks, and reads through symlinks succeed.

selftests/fuse: add ACL_DONT_CACHE regression test
Add a test that reproduces the stale ACL bug fixed by:
"fs: preserve ACL_DONT_CACHE state in forget_cached_acl()"
A FUSE mount that does not negotiate FUSE_POSIX_ACL initialises inodes
with i_acl = ACL_DONT_CACHE. Before the fix, calling
forget_all_cached_acls() (e.g. from fuse_update_get_attr() on a
statx(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC)) would silently replace ACL_DONT_CACHE with
ACL_NOT_CACHED, enabling the kernel ACL cache. A subsequent getxattr
would populate the cache, and because fuse_set_acl() skips
forget_all_cached_acls() for !fc->posix_acl, later ACL changes were
not visible to callers — getxattr returned stale data.
The test mounts a minimal libfuse3 lowlevel filesystem (no
FUSE_POSIX_ACL negotiated) and:
1. Issues two getxattrs — both must reach the daemon, proving
ACL_DONT_CACHE suppresses caching before any trigger.
2. Calls statx(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC) to trigger forget_all_cached_acls().
3. Issues another getxattr (populates the cache on a buggy kernel).
4. Switches the daemon to a different-sized ACL (ACL_B).
5. Issues a final getxattr — expects ACL_B (44 bytes) and daemon
call count 4; a buggy kernel returns stale ACL_A (28 bytes).
fuse_acl_cache_test is only built when libfuse3 is detected via
pkg-config.

fs: preserve ACL_DONT_CACHE state in forget_cached_acl()
The ACL_DONT_CACHE state is meant to be a constant state for the inode
for filesystems that want to opt out of posix acl caching.
Commit facd61053cff1 ("fuse: fixes after adapting to new posix acl api")
used this facility to opt out of posix acl caching for fuse inodes with
fuse server that does not negotiate FUSE_POSIX_ACL (fc->posix_acl).
The commit also takes care to gate the forget_all_cached_acls() call in
fuse_set_acl() on fc->posix_acl because there is no need for it, but
there are other placed in fuse code which call forget_all_cached_acls()
unconditional to fc->posix_acl and those cause the loss of the
ACL_DONT_CACHE state.
This is not only a functional bug. Properly timed, a get_acl() from this
fuse filesystem can return a stale cached value, as was observed in tests,
because set_acl() does not invalidate the unintentional acl cache.
We could fix this in fuse, but it actually makes no sense for the vfs
helper forget_cached_acl() to invalidate the ACL_DONT_CACHE state, so
let it not do that to fix fuse and future users of ACL_DONT_CACHE.

pds_core: fix use-after-free on workqueue during remove
In pdsc_remove(), the workqueue is destroyed before pdsc_teardown()
is called. This ordering allows two paths to queue work on the
destroyed workqueue:
1. If pdsc_teardown() -> pdsc_devcmd_reset() times out, the error
path in pdsc_devcmd_locked() queues health_work.
2. A NotifyQ event can trigger the ISR and queue work before free_irq()
is called in pdsc_teardown().
Fix by moving destroy_workqueue() after pdsc_teardown() so the
workqueue outlives every queuer; destroy_workqueue() then flushes any
work still pending.
Draining the queued work also requires ordering the teardown so the
resources that work touches are freed last:
- In pdsc_qcq_free(), after freeing the interrupt, cancel_work_sync()
the queue's work and only then clear qcq->intx, so
pdsc_process_adminq()'s read of qcq->intx for interrupt-credit
return cannot race with the clear.
- Free adminqcq before notifyqcq: the shared adminq ISR is released
when adminqcq is freed, and the adminq work accesses notifyqcq, so
both must be stopped before notifyqcq is freed.

pds_core: fix deadlock between reset thread and remove
pci_reset_function() acquires device_lock before performing the reset.
pdsc_remove() is called by the PCI core with device_lock already held.
If pdsc_pci_reset_thread() is running when pdsc_remove() is called,
destroy_workqueue() will block waiting for the work to complete, while
the work is blocked waiting for device_lock - deadlock.
Use pci_try_reset_function() which uses pci_dev_trylock() internally.
This acquires both the device lock and the PCI config access lock
without blocking - if either lock is contended, it returns -EAGAIN
immediately. This avoids the deadlock while also ensuring proper
config space access serialization during the reset.
The pci_dev_get/put calls are also removed as they were unnecessary -
the driver-owned workqueue is destroyed in pdsc_remove(), guaranteeing
the work completes before remove returns. The PCI core holds its
reference to pci_dev throughout the entire unbind sequence.

sctp: fix auth_chunk_list capacity check in sctp_auth_ep_add_chunkid
sctp_auth_ep_add_chunkid() uses SCTP_NUM_CHUNK_TYPES (20) as the
capacity limit for ep->auth_chunk_list, allowing it to hold up to
20 chunk entries (param_hdr.length up to 24). However, the copy
destination asoc->c.auth_chunks in struct sctp_cookie is only
SCTP_AUTH_MAX_CHUNKS (16) entries (20 bytes). When more than 16
chunks are added, sctp_association_init() memcpy overflows the
destination by up to 4 bytes.
Fix by using SCTP_AUTH_MAX_CHUNKS as the capacity limit, matching
the destination capacity.
Perfect FDIR filters can be added while the interface is down and are
kept on the software list for later restore. unregister_netdev() only
calls ndo_stop when the device is up, so txgbe_fdir_filter_exit() in

rtase: Workaround for TX hang caused by hardware packet parsing
The hardware performs packet parsing before packet transmission.
Parsing incomplete IPv4, IPv6, TCP, or UDP headers may trigger a TX
hang because the hardware parser expects additional protocol header
data that is not present in the packet.
The hardware performs additional PTP parsing on UDP packets identified
by destination ports 319/320 at the expected UDP destination port
offset.
If such a packet has transport data smaller than RTASE_MIN_PAD_LEN,
the hardware parser expects additional packet data and may trigger a
TX hang.
To avoid these hardware issues, the driver applies the following
workarounds.
Drop malformed packets that may trigger this hardware issue before
transmission.
For IPv4 non-initial fragments, the hardware does not check the
fragment offset before parsing the expected transport header location.
As a result, these packets are still subject to transport header
parsing even though they do not contain a transport header. If the
transport data is shorter than the minimum transport header required
by the hardware parser, pad the transport data to the minimum
transport header length required by the hardware parser. Packets that
also match the hardware PTP parsing conditions continue to follow the
corresponding workaround.
For IPv6 fragmented packets, neither of the above hardware issues
occurs because the hardware only continues packet parsing when the
IPv6 Base Header Next Header field directly indicates UDP. Packets
carrying a Fragment Header do not continue through the subsequent
packet parsing stages.
For packets identified for hardware PTP parsing, pad the transport
data so it reaches RTASE_MIN_PAD_LEN before transmission.

mptcp: only set DATA_FIN when a mapping is present
mptcp_get_options() clears only the status group of struct
mptcp_options_received; data_seq, subflow_seq and data_len are filled in
by mptcp_parse_option() exclusively inside the DSS mapping block, which
runs only when the DSS M (mapping present) bit is set.
A peer can send a DSS option with the DATA_FIN flag set but the mapping
bit clear. The parser then records mp_opt->data_fin while leaving
data_len and data_seq uninitialized. For a zero-length segment
mptcp_incoming_options() evaluates
if (mp_opt.data_fin && mp_opt.data_len == 1 &&
mptcp_update_rcv_data_fin(msk, mp_opt.data_seq, mp_opt.dsn64))
which reads the uninitialized data_len and data_seq; KMSAN reports an
uninit-value in mptcp_incoming_options(). The stale data_seq can also be
fed into the receive-side DATA_FIN sequence tracking.
Record the DATA_FIN flag only when the DSS option carries a mapping, so
data_fin is never set without data_seq and data_len also being present.
data_fin is part of the status group that mptcp_get_options() clears up
front, so on the no-map path it stays zero and the zero-length DATA_FIN
branch is simply skipped. A DATA_FIN is always transmitted together with
a mapping (mptcp_write_data_fin() sets use_map along with data_seq and
data_len), so legitimate DATA_FIN handling is unaffected.
Move the pr_debug() that logs the parsed DSS flags below the mapping
block, so it reports the final data_fin value instead of the stale one
it would otherwise print before the assignment.

net: gro: fix double aggregation of flush-marked skbs
Commit 0ab03f353d36 ("net-gro: Fix GRO flush when receiving a GSO
packet.") added a flush check to skb_gro_receive(), but
skb_gro_receive_list() lacks the same validation.
As a result, packets marked with NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush may still be
re-aggregated.
This allows already-GRO'd packets with existing frag_list to be
re-aggregated into a new GRO session, corrupting the frag_list chain
structure. When skb_segment() attempts to unpack these malformed packets,
it encounters invalid state and triggers a kernel panic.
Scenario (Tethering/Device forwarding):
1. Driver: Generated aggregated packet P1 via LRO with frag_list
2. Dev A: Receives aggregated fraglist packet and flush flag set
3. Dev A: Re-enters GRO, skb_gro_receive_list() is called
4. Missing flush check allows re-aggregation despite flush flag
5. Frag_list chain becomes corrupted (loops or dangling refs)
6. Dev B: TX path calls skb_segment(), crashes on corrupted frag_list
Root cause in skb_segment():
The check at line ~4891:
if (hsize <= 0 && i >= nfrags && skb_headlen(list_skb) &&
(skb_headlen(list_skb) == len || sg)) {
When frag_list is corrupted by double aggregation, when list_skb is
a NULL pointer from skb->next, skb_headlen(list_skb) dereference
NULL/corrupted pointers occurs.
Fix: Add NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush validation to the early-return check in
skb_gro_receive_list(), matching the defensive programming pattern of
skb_gro_receive().

The MSI Crosshair A16 HX D7WFKG has an internal digital microphone
connected through AMD ACP6x, but the system does not expose the
AcpDmicConnected ACPI property. As a result, acp_yc_mach does not bind
and no DMIC capture device is created.
Add a DMI quirk for this model. This was tested on a system with board
MS-15PL, BIOS E15PLAMS.10B, and AMD ACP6x rev 0x62. After applying the
quirk, the internal microphone appears as an acp6x DMIC capture device
and records correctly.

rtla/timerlat_top: Fix on-threshold actions firing on signal
A bug was reported when rtla-timerlat-top tool performs on-threshold
actions, even though no threshold was hit. This is reproduced even if no
threshold is set at all:
$ rtla timerlat top -q -c 0 --on-threshold shell,command='echo BAD'
BAD
Timer Latency
...
The bug is due to incorrect logic in timerlat_top_bpf_main_loop().
The loop uses timerlat_bpf_wait(), the return values of which are:
- > 0 (number of ringbuffer entries): at least 1 CPU hit threshold
- = 0: time out
- < 0: wait was interrupted by a signal
Commit 3138df6f0cd0 ("rtla/timerlat: Exit top main loop on any non-zero
wait_retval") changed the condition for "threshold hit" from
"wait_reval == 1" (exactly 1 CPU hit threshold) to "wait_retval != 0",
to fix a race where multiple CPUs hit the threshold at the same time.
That also made it incorrectly include a signal (< 0), coming from either
duration expired (SIGALRM) or user interrupt (SIGINT).
Check for wait_retval greater than zero in the if condition to cover all
return values correctly.

wifi: brcmfmac: drain bus_reset work on device removal
brcmf_fw_crashed() and the debugfs "reset" entry both schedule
drvr->bus_reset, whose callback recovers drvr through container_of()
and dereferences it. The removal path frees drvr (brcmf_free ->
wiphy_free) without draining the work, so a bus_reset callback pending
or running during removal can outlive drvr.
Cancellation cannot live in brcmf_detach() or brcmf_free(): the work
callback reaches teardown through the bus .reset op (PCIe
brcmf_pcie_reset -> brcmf_detach; SDIO brcmf_sdio_bus_reset ->
brcmf_sdiod_remove -> brcmf_free), so cancelling there would wait for
the running work and deadlock.
Add a per-bus mutex (bus_reset_lock) and route all arming through
brcmf_bus_schedule_reset(), which under the lock skips when the bus is
marked removing. Each bus remove entry calls
brcmf_bus_cancel_reset_work(), which under the same lock sets removing
and cancels the work. Holding the mutex across cancel_work_sync() makes
the set-removing + drain step atomic. Every producer reaches the arming
path from process context -- the PCIe firmware-halt notification runs in
the threaded IRQ handler (brcmf_pcie_isr_thread) and the SDIO hostmail
path runs from the data workqueue -- so the mutex is taken only in
sleepable contexts. Where applicable the remove entry first stops the
firmware-crash producer: on PCIe mask the mailbox and synchronize_irq;
on SDIO unregister the bus interrupt and cancel the data worker, which
also reports firmware halts through brcmf_fw_crashed(). The mutex is
initialized at bus allocation. The SDIO suspend power-off path frees
drvr through the same brcmf_sdiod_remove() and takes the same lock;
resume re-allows the work only on a successful re-probe.
Also guard brcmf_fw_crashed() against a NULL bus_if/drvr: it can fire
before brcmf_attach() wires up drvr, and it dereferences drvr
(bphy_err/brcmf_dev_coredump) before reaching the arming gate.
The bus_reset work is shared across buses, so the drain is applied to
every remove path: PCIe (the .reset op introduced by the Fixes commit),
SDIO (arms the same work through brcmf_fw_crashed()), and USB (via the
debugfs "reset" entry). cancel_work_sync() drains a running or pending
bus_reset work item before removal frees drvr, and patch 1/2 makes the
scratch-buffer release safe when reset teardown has already released
those DMA buffers.
This patch fixes the lifetime of the bus_reset work item itself. It does
not attempt to address the separate, pre-existing lifetime of the
asynchronous firmware completion started by the PCIe reset path. That
callback needs its own lifetime/ownership protocol and is being tracked
separately.

When vhost owns the virtio-net header, i.e. when

meaning that no header will be forwarded to the TAP device.
In the current vhost_net_build_xdp() implementation,
when sock_hlen == 0, the gso pointer can point at the start of the
Ethernet frame instead of a virtio-net header.
This results in a wrong interpretation of the destination MAC address
bytes as struct virtio_net_hdr fields.
This can, for some MAC addresses, trigger -EINVAL and return early
before the TX descriptor is completed, which can stall vhost-net TX.

received association response (host_int_parse_assoc_resp_info() passes
hif_drv->assoc_resp / assoc_resp_info_len straight in) and must be
validated before the driver accesses the fixed header.
For a frame shorter than the 6-byte fixed header, the subtraction wraps.
For a four-byte response the result is truncated to a u16 ies_len of
65534, so kmemdup() then attempts to copy 65534 bytes starting at
buffer + sizeof(*res), beyond the valid association-response data
(CWE-125). A response shorter than four bytes can also cause an
out-of-bounds read of res->status_code at offsets 2 and 3.
Reject frames too short to hold the fixed header before touching the
header or computing ies_len. Also set the connection status to a failure
on this path: the caller falls through to a

returns, so leaving the status untouched could let a malformed short

wifi: mac80211: tear down new links on vif update error path
When ieee80211_vif_update_links() adds new links it allocates a link
container for each and calls ieee80211_link_init() (which registers the
per-link debugfs files with file->private_data pointing into the container)
and ieee80211_link_setup(). If the subsequent drv_change_vif_links() fails,
the error path restores the old pointers and jumps to 'free', which frees
the new containers but never removes their debugfs entries or stops the
links. The debugfs files survive with file->private_data dangling at the
freed container, so a later open()+read() (e.g. link-1/txpower)
dereferences freed memory in ieee80211_if_read_link(), a use-after-free.
The removal path already dismantles links correctly via
ieee80211_tear_down_links(), which removes each link's keys and debugfs
entries and calls ieee80211_link_stop(); the add path on the error branch
does not. Commit be1ba9ed221f ("wifi: mac80211: avoid weird state in error
path") hardened this same error path for the link-removal case
(new_links == 0) but left the newly-added links' teardown unaddressed.
drv_change_vif_links() can fail at runtime on MLO drivers (internal
allocation / queue / firmware command failures).
Remove the new links' debugfs entries and stop them before freeing.

exec: fix unsigned loop counter wrap in transfer_args_to_stack()
The stop value is derived from bprm->p >> PAGE_SHIFT. The index variable
is an unsigned long. If bprm->p drops below PAGE_SIZE and stop becomes
zero the loop condition index >= stop is always true.
After the index == 0 iteration the decrement wraps to ULONG_MAX and
bprm->page[ULONG_MAX] reads sizeof(void *) bytes in front of the array.
The pointer has wrapped to -1. That garbage pointer is then passed to
kmap_local_page() and PAGE_SIZE bytes are copied from wherever that
lands into the stack of the process being created. And the loop doesn't
terminate either...
Getting there only requires bprm->p < PAGE_SIZE. On !MMU
bprm_set_stack_limit() and bprm_hit_stack_limit() are empty. So the only
constraint on how far bprm->p is pushed down is valid_arg_len(), i.e.
that each individual string still fits in what is left.
bprm->p starts at PAGE_SIZE * MAX_ARG_PAGES - sizeof(void *) so a
single argument or environment string of a little over 31 pages leaves
it in the first page:
Count down from MAX_ARG_PAGES so the loop ends when index reaches stop,
stop == 0 included. The iterations performed are unchanged for every
other value of stop.
Only CONFIG_MMU=n builds are affected, transfer_args_to_stack() is used
by binfmt_flat and binfmt_elf_fdpic on nommu only.
The loop predates git history. commit 7e7ec6a93434
("elf_fdpic_transfer_args_to_stack(): make it generic") only moved it
from binfmt_elf_fdpic.c into fs/exec.c and narrowed the copy to the used
part of the first page. The condition and the decrement are unchanged
from 2.6.12-rc2.
iommu/amd: Wait for completion instead of returning early in iommu_completion_wait()
need_sync is a per-IOMMU flag shared by all domains and devices behind
that IOMMU. It is set whenever a command is queued with sync == true and
cleared when a completion-wait (CWAIT) command is queued. However, a
cleared need_sync only means that a covering CWAIT has been queued, not
that all previously queued commands have actually completed in hardware.
iommu_completion_wait() read need_sync locklessly and returned early
when it was false. This breaks the "block until all previously queued
commands have completed" contract in a multi-CPU scenario:
CPU2 returns without waiting for any sequence number even though its
inv-B may not have completed yet (CWAIT(N), queued after inv-B, has not
been signaled). CPU2 then proceeds to, for example, free page-table
pages while the IOMMU can still walk stale translations, opening a
use-after-free window. This is a logical race in the meaning of the
flag, not a memory-visibility issue, so barriers alone do not help.
Fix it without losing the optimization of avoiding redundant CWAIT
commands: take iommu->lock before testing need_sync, and when it is
false do not return early but wait for the last allocated sequence
number (cmd_sem_val). Since need_sync == false implies no sync command
was queued after the last CWAIT, that CWAIT is FIFO-ordered after every
not-yet-completed command, so waiting for its sequence number guarantees
all prior commands (possibly queued by another CPU) have completed. The
common path with pending work is unchanged and no extra hardware command
is issued.

KVM: x86: Only reset TSC Deadline Timer in apic_timer_expired on KVM_RUN
On Intel platforms with a VMX preemption timer and APICv, if a VMM
calls KVM_GET_LAPIC before KVM_GET_MSRS to save the vCPU state, it is
possible to lose a pending timer interrupt.
If the thread running these ioctls is migrated to another core after
calling KVM_GET_LAPIC but before KVM_GET_MSRS and the guest is using
their LAPIC timer in TSC-deadline mode, not only does the save LAPIC
state not carry the pending interrupt, the TSCDEADLINE MSR will be
zeroed.
After migration across CPUs, KVM_GET_MSRS calls vcpu_load, posting the
interrupt and clearing the MSR:
vcpu_load() ->
kvm_arch_vcpu_load() ->
kvm_lapic_restart_hv_timer() ->
start_hv_timer() ->
apic_timer_expired() ->
kvm_apic_inject_pending_timer_irqs()
. post interrupt into the LAPIC state
. clear IA32_TSCDEADLINE
The saved LAPIC state will be missing the pending interrupt and the saved
MSR will be zero. Oops.
Fix by only posting an interrupt when we're attempting to enter the guest
(vcpu->wants_to_run == true), not for vcpu_load from other paths.

KVM: x86/mmu: Fix use-after-free on vendor module reload
mmu_destroy_caches() destroys pte_list_desc_cache and
mmu_page_header_cache, but leaves both pointers unchanged. The pointers
live in kvm.ko, and therefore survive when a vendor module is unloaded
while kvm.ko remains loaded.
If creation of pte_list_desc_cache fails during a subsequent vendor
module load, its assignment sets pte_list_desc_cache to NULL and the
error path calls mmu_destroy_caches(). mmu_page_header_cache still
points to the cache destroyed during the preceding vendor module
unload. Passing that stale pointer to kmem_cache_destroy() causes a
slab use-after-free.
Reproduce the issue on a v7.1.3 kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y,
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y, CONFIG_KVM=m, and CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m. A
one-shot test hook forces pte_list_desc_cache to NULL on the second
invocation of kvm_mmu_vendor_module_init():
1. Load kvm.ko and kvm-intel.ko, creating both caches.
2. Unload only kvm_intel, leaving kvm.ko loaded.
3. Reload kvm_intel and force initialization through the -ENOMEM path.

KVM: x86/mmu: Preserve nested TDP shadow page tables if they are used as roots
kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages() excludes a shadow page whose root_count

nested TDP child has no such check. As a result, a shadow page can

KVM: x86: Check for invalid/obsolete root *after* making MMU pages available
Check for a "stale" page fault, i.e. for an invalid and/or obsolete root,
after making MMU pages available for the shadow MMU. If reclaiming shadow
pages zaps an in-use root, i.e. marks it invalid, then KVM will attempt to
map memory into an invalid root. On its own, populating an invalid root is
"fine", but because child shadow pages inherit their parent's role, any
children created during the map/fetch will be created as invalid pages,
thus violating KVM's invariant that invalid pages are never on the list of
active MMU pages.
Note, the underlying flaw has existed since KVM first started tracking
invalid roots in 2008 (commit 2e53d63acba7, "KVM: MMU: ignore zapped root
pagetables"), but the true badness only came along in 2020 (Linux 5.9)
with the invariant that invalid shadow pages can't be on the list of
active pages.
Note #2, inheriting role.invalid when creating child shadow pages is also
far from ideal; that flaw will be addressed separately.

net: airoha: Fix DMA direction for NPU mailbox buffer
airoha_npu_send_msg() always maps the mailbox buffer with DMA_TO_DEVICE,
but some callers expect the NPU to write response data back into the
same buffer:
- airoha_npu_wlan_msg_get() (NPU_OP_GET): NPU writes response into
the buffer, then the caller reads it via memcpy()
- airoha_npu_ppe_stats_setup() (NPU_OP_SET): NPU writes back
npu_stats_addr field in the response
On non-cache-coherent architectures like EN7581 (Cortex-A53 without
hardware cache coherency for NPU DMA), DMA_TO_DEVICE unmap is a no-op
— it does not invalidate the CPU cache. If the NPU-written cache line
is still present in the CPU cache when the caller reads the buffer,
the CPU observes stale data instead of the NPU response.
This is a timing-sensitive bug: small mailbox buffers (~24 bytes)
typically fit in a single cache line and may survive in the cache
until the caller reads them, producing silent data corruption rather
than a crash. The bug is more likely to trigger when the caller reads
the response immediately after dma_unmap_single() without intervening
cache-evicting operations.
Fix by using DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL for both map and unmap, which ensures
dma_unmap_single() invalidates the CPU cache on non-coherent systems.
The mailbox buffers are small so there is no performance concern.

On AmpereOne, deactivating a physical interrupt through

active, but is the highest priority pending interrupt causes the
cpu to lose the interrupt pending state and also prevents the
delivery of future interrupts.
