commit 652c1a05171695d21b84dd3a723606b50eeb80fd upstream.

In commit f360d88a2efd, we advertise blocking multicast loopback to both
kernel and userspace consumers, but don't allow kernel consumers (e.g IPoIB)
to use it with their UD QPs.  Fix that.

<content type='text'>
commit 6b54d54dea82ae214e4a45a503c4ef755a8ecee8 upstream.

The status page is mapped to user processes and allows sharing the
device state between the kernel and user processes.  This state isn't
getting initialized and thus intermittently causes problems.  Namely,
the user process can mistakenly think the user doorbell writes are
disabled which causes SQ work requests to never get fetched by HW.

commit 60e1751cb52cc6d1ae04b6bd3c2b96e770b5823f upstream.

Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad&lt;n&gt; or /dev/infiniband/issm&lt;n&gt;
triggers a use-after-free.  __fput() invokes f_op-&gt;release() before it
invokes cdev_put().  Make sure that the ib_umad_device structure is
freed by the cdev_put() call instead of f_op-&gt;release().  This avoids
that changing the port mode from IB into Ethernet and back to IB
followed by restarting opensmd triggers the following kernel oops:

    general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
    RIP: 0010:[&lt;ffffffff810cc65c&gt;]  [&lt;ffffffff810cc65c&gt;] module_put+0x2c/0x170

commit 8ec0a0e6b58218bdc1db91dd70ebfcd6ad8dd6cd upstream.

Avoid leaking a kref count in ib_umad_open() if port-&gt;ib_dev == NULL
or if nonseekable_open() fails.

Avoid leaking a kref count, that sm_sem is kept down and also that the
IB_PORT_SM capability mask is not cleared in ib_umad_sm_open() if
nonseekable_open() fails.

Since container_of() never returns NULL, remove the code that tests
whether container_of() returns NULL.

Moving the kref_get() call from the start of ib_umad_*open() to the
end is safe since it is the responsibility of the caller of these
functions to ensure that the cdev pointer remains valid until at least
when these functions return.

commit 024ca90151f5e4296d30f72c13ff9a075e23c9ec upstream.

Avoid that the loops that iterate over the request ring can encounter
a pointer to a SCSI command in req-&gt;scmnd that is no longer associated
with that request. If the function srp_unmap_data() is invoked twice
for a SCSI command that is not in flight then that would cause
ib_fmr_pool_unmap() to be invoked with an invalid pointer as argument,
resulting in a kernel oops.

This patch addresses an issue where the legacy diagpacket is sent in
from the user, but the driver operates on only the extended
diagpkt. This patch specifically initializes the extended diagpkt
based on the legacy packet.

As of the dual port qib QDR card, this is not necessarily correct.

Change to use the port as specified in the call.

commit 43bc889380c2ad9aa230eccc03a15cc52cf710d4 upstream.

The i386 ABI disagrees with most other ABIs regarding alignment of
data type larger than 4 bytes: on most ABIs a padding must be added at
end of the structures, while it is not required on i386.

So for most ABIs struct mlx5_ib_create_srq gets implicitly padded to be
aligned on a 8 bytes multiple, while for i386, such padding is not
added.

Tool pahole could be used to find such implicit padding:

  $ pahole --anon_include \
           --nested_anon_include \
           --recursive \
           --class_name mlx5_ib_create_srq \
           drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.o

Then, structure layout can be compared between i386 and x86_64:

#  +       /* padding: 4 */
#  +       /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
#   };

ABI disagreement will make an x86_64 kernel try to read past
the buffer provided by an i386 binary.

When boundary check will be implemented, the x86_64 kernel will
refuse to read past the i386 userspace provided buffer and the
uverb will fail.

Anyway, if the structure lay in memory on a page boundary and
next page is not mapped, ib_copy_from_udata() will fail and the
uverb will fail.

This patch makes create_srq_user() takes care of the input
data size to handle the case where no padding was provided.

This way, x86_64 kernel will be able to handle struct mlx5_ib_create_srq
as sent by unpatched and patched i386 libmlx5.

in most architectures.

This patch adds an explicit padding to struct c4iw_alloc_ucontext_resp,
and, like 92b0ca7cb149 ("IB/mlx5: Fix stack info leak in
mlx5_ib_alloc_ucontext()"), makes function c4iw_alloc_ucontext()
not writting this padding field to userspace. This way, x86_64 kernel
will be able to write struct c4iw_alloc_ucontext_resp as expected by
unpatched and patched i386 libcxgb4.
