If an overlay has no "__symbols__" node, but it has nodes without "__overlay__" subnodes at the end (e.g. a "__fixups__" node), after filling in all fragments for nodes with "__overlay__" subnodes, "fragment = &fragments[cnt]" will point beyond the end of the allocated array. Hence writing to "fragment->overlay" will overwrite unallocated memory, which may lead to a crash later. Fix this by deferring both the assignment to "fragment" and the offending write afterwards until we know for sure the node has an "__overlay__" subnode, and thus a valid entry in "fragments[]".

It's a user pointer, and while the permissions of the file are pretty questionable (should it really be readable to everybody), hashing the pointer isn't going to be the solution. We should take a closer look at more of the /proc/<pid> file permissions in general. Sure, we do want many of them to often be readable (for 'ps' and friends), but I think we should probably do a few conversions from S_IRUGO to S_IRUSR.

The special overlay mutex is taken first, hence it should be released last in the error path. of_resolve_phandles() must be called with of_mutex held. Without it, a node and new phandle could be added via of_attach_node(), making the max phandle wrong. free_overlay_changeset() must be called with of_mutex held, if any non-trivial cleanup is to be done. Hence move "mutex_lock(&of_mutex)" up, as suggested by Frank, and merge the two tail statements of the success and error paths, now they became identical. Note that while the two mutexes are adjacent, we still need both: __of_changeset_apply_notify(), which is called by __of_changeset_apply() unlocks of_mutex, then does notifications then locks of_mutex. So the mutex get released in the middle of of_overlay_apply() Fixes: f948d6d8 ("of: overlay: avoid race condition between applying multiple overlays") Signed-off-by: NGeert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Reviewed-by: NFrank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com> Signed-off-by: NRob Herring <robh@kernel.org>

If of_resolve_phandles() fails, free_overlay_changeset() is called in the error path. However, that function returns early if the list hasn't been initialized yet, before freeing the object. Explicitly calling kfree() instead would solve that issue. However, that complicates matter, by having to consider which of two different methods to use to dispose of the same object. Hence make free_overlay_changeset() consider initialization state of the different parts of the object, making it always safe to call (once!) to dispose of a (partially) initialized overlay_changeset: - Only destroy the changeset if the list was initialized, - Make init_overlay_changeset() store the ID in ovcs->id on success, to avoid calling idr_remove() with an error value or an already released ID.

When deciding whether to invalidate FPSIMD state cached in the cpu, the backend function sve_flush_cpu_state() attempts to dereference __this_cpu_read(fpsimd_last_state). However, this is not safe: there is no guarantee that this task_struct pointer is still valid, because the task could have exited in the meantime. This means that we need another means to get the appropriate value of TIF_SVE for the associated task. This patch solves this issue by adding a cached copy of the TIF_SVE flag in fpsimd_last_state, which we can check without dereferencing the task pointer. In particular, although this patch is not a KVM fix per se, this means that this check is now done safely in the KVM world switch path (which is currently the only user of this code).
