commit 6b0f32745d upstream.
The duplicate retransmission detection code in mac80211
erroneously attempts to do the check for every frame,
even frames that don't have a sequence control field or
that don't use it (QoS-Null frames.)
This is problematic because it causes the code to access
data beyond the end of the SKB and depending on the data
there will drop packets erroneously.
Correct the code to not do duplicate detection for such
frames.
I found this error while testing AP powersave, it lead
to retransmitted PS-Poll frames being dropped entirely
as the data beyond the end of the SKB was always zero.

commit 079a036f42 upstream.
Without this patch the driver waits ~1 ms for the UART to become idle. At
115200n8 this time is (theoretically) enough to transfer 11.5 characters
(= 115200 bits/s / (10 Bits/char) * 1ms). As the mxs-auart has a fifo size
of 16 characters the clock is gated too early. The problem is worse for
lower baud rates.
This only happens to really shut down the transmitter in the middle of a
transfer if /dev/ttyAPPx isn't opened in userspace (e.g. by a getty) but
was at least once (because the bootloader doesn't disable the transmitter).
So increase the timeout to 20 ms which should be enough for 9600n8, too.
Moreover skip gating the clock if the timeout is elapsed.

A fixup for Apple Mac Mini was lost during the adaption to the generic

Unfortunately, just adding the missing subsystem ID wasn't enough, in
this case. The subsystem ID of this machine is 0000:0100 (what Apple
thought...?), and since snd_hda_pick_fixup() doesn't take the vendor
id zero into account, the driver ignored this entry. Now it's fixed

commit 50861f5a02 upstream.
The parisc architecture does not have a pte special bit. As a result,
special mappings are handled with the VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP flags.
VM_MIXEDMAP mappings may or may not have a "struct page" backing. When
pfn_valid() is false, there is no "struct page" backing. Otherwise, they
are treated as normal pages.
The FireGL driver uses the VM_MIXEDMAP without a backing "struct page".
This treatment caused a panic due to a TLB data miss in
update_mmu_cache. This appeared to be in the code generated for
page_address(). We were in fact using a very circular bit of code to
determine the physical address of the PFN in various cache routines.
This wasn't valid when there was no "struct page" backing. The needed
address can in fact be determined simply from the PFN itself without
using the "struct page".
The attached patch updates update_mmu_cache(), flush_cache_mm(),
flush_cache_range() and flush_cache_page() to check pfn_valid() and to
directly compute the PFN physical and virtual addresses.

commit 3be7db6ab4 upstream.
When an associativity level change is found for one thread, the
siblings threads need to be updated as well. This is done today
for PRRN in stage_topology_update() but is missing for VPHN in
update_cpu_associativity_changes_mask(). This patch will correctly
update all thread siblings during a topology change.
Without this patch a topology update can result in a CPU in
init_sched_groups_power() getting stuck indefinitely in a loop.
This loop is built in build_sched_groups(). As a result of the thread
moving to a node separate from its siblings the struct sched_group will
have its next pointer set to point to itself rather than the sched_group
struct of the next thread. This happens because we have a domain without
the SD_OVERLAP flag, which is correct, and a topology that doesn't conform
with reality (threads on the same core assigned to different numa nodes).
When this list is traversed by init_sched_groups_power() it will reach
the thread's sched_group structure and loop indefinitely; the cpu will
be stuck at this point.
The bug was exposed when VPHN was enabled in commit b7abef0 (v3.9).

commit acfdd4b1f7 upstream.
a.out support on ARM requires that argc, argv and envp are passed in
r0-r2 respectively, which requires hacking load_aout_binary to
prevent argc being clobbered by the return code. Whilst mainline kernels
do set the registers up in start_thread, the aout loader has never
carried the hack in mainline.
Initialising the registers in this way actually goes against the libc
expectations for ELF binaries, where argc, argv and envp are passed on
the stack, with r0 being used to hold a pointer to an exit function for
cleaning up after the dynamic linker if required. If the pointer is
NULL, then it is ignored. When execing an ELF binary, Linux currently
zeroes r0, then sets it to argc and then finally clobbers it with the
return value of the execve syscall, so we actually end up with:
r0 = 0
stack[0] = argc
r1 = stack[1] = argv
r2 = stack[2] = envp
libc treats r1 and r2 as undefined. The clobbering of r0 by sys_execve
works for user-spawned threads, but when executing an ELF binary from a
kernel thread (via call_usermodehelper), the execve is performed on the
ret_from_fork path, which restores r0 from the saved pt_regs, resulting
in argc being presented to the C library. This has horrible consequences
when the application exits, since we have an exit function registered
using argc, resulting in a jump to hyperspace.
This patch solves the problem by removing the partial a.out support from
arch/arm/ altogether.

commit bdae73cd37 upstream.
As of commit b9d4d42ad9 (ARM: Remove __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW on
pre-ARMv6 CPUs), the mm switching on VIVT processors is done in the
finish_arch_post_lock_switch() function to avoid whole cache flushing
with interrupts disabled. The need for deferred mm switch is stored as a
thread flag (TIF_SWITCH_MM). However, with preemption enabled, we can
have another thread switch before finish_arch_post_lock_switch(). If the
new thread has the same mm as the previous 'next' thread, the scheduler
will not call switch_mm() and the TIF_SWITCH_MM flag won't be set for
the new thread.
This patch moves the switch pending flag to the mm_context_t structure
since this is specific to the mm rather than thread.

commit b9b32bf70f upstream.
Use linker magic to create the vectors and vector stubs: we can tell the
linker to place them at an appropriate VMA, but keep the LMA within the
kernel. This gets rid of some unnecessary symbol manipulation, and
have the linker calculate the relocations appropriately.

commit 19accfd373 upstream.
Move the machine vector stubs into the page above the vector page,
which we can prevent from being visible to userspace. Also move
the reset stub, and place the swi vector at a location that the
'ldr' can get to it.
This hides pointers into the kernel which could give valuable
information to attackers, and reduces the number of exploitable
instructions at a fixed address.

commit f928d4f2a8 upstream.
Fill the empty regions of the vectors page with an exception generating
instruction. This ensures that any inappropriate branch to the vector
page is appropriately trapped, rather than just encountering some code
to execute. (The vectors page was filled with zero before, which
corresponds with the "andeq r0, r0, r0" instruction - a no-op.)

reg08: base=0x09b000000 ( 2480MB), size= 16MB, count=1: write-combining
so bit 44 and bit 45 get cut off.
We have problems in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c::generic_get_mtrr().
1. for base, we miss cast base_lo to 64bit before shifting.
Fix that by adding u64 casting.
2. for size, it only can handle 44 bits aka 32bits + page_shift
Fix that with 64bit mask instead of 32bit mask_lo, then range could be
more than 44bits.
At the same time, we need to update size_or_mask for old cpus that does
support cpuid 0x80000008 to get phys_addr. Need to set high 32bits
to all 1s, otherwise will not get correct size for them.
Also fix mtrr_add_page: it should check base and (base + size - 1)
instead of base and size, as base and size could be small but
base + size could bigger enough to be out of boundary. We can
use boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits directly to avoid size_or_mask.
So When are we going to have size more than 44bits? that is 16TiB.
after patch we have right ouput:
reg00: base=0x080000000 ( 2048MB), size= 2048MB, count=1: uncachable
reg01: base=0x380000000000 (58720256MB), size=1048576MB, count=1: uncachable

-v2: simply checking in mtrr_add_page according to hpa.
[ hpa: This probably wants to go into -stable only after having sat in
mainline for a bit. It is not a regression. ]

commit a363a9da65 upstream.
Among other things, the following:
commit 31160d7fea
Date: Tue Jan 8 16:22:36 2013 -0500
perf tools: Fix GNU make v3.80 compatibility issue
attempts to aid the user by tapping into an existing error message,
as described in the commit message:
... Also fix an issue where _get_attempt was called with only
one argument. This prevented the error message from printing
the name of the variable that can be used to fix the problem.
or more precisely:
-$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2)))
+$(if $($(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$($(1)),$(1)),$(call _ge_attempt,$(2),$(1)))
However, The "missing" argument was in fact missing on purpose; it's
absence is a signal that the error message should be skipped, because
the failure would be due to the default value, not any user-supplied
value. This can be seen in how `_ge_attempt' uses `gea_err' (in the
config/utilities.mak file):
_ge_attempt = $(if $(get-executable),$(get-executable),$(_gea_warn)$(call _gea_err,$(2)))
_gea_warn = $(warning The path '$(1)' is not executable.)
_gea_err = $(if $(1),$(error Please set '$(1)' appropriately))
That is, because the argument is no longer missing, the value `$(1)'
(associated with `_gea_err') always evaluates to true, thus always
triggering the error condition that is meant to be reserved for
only the case when a user explicitly supplies an invalid value.
Concretely, the result is a regression in the Makefile's configuration
of python support; rather than gracefully disable support when the
relevant executables cannot be found according to default values, the
build process halts in error as though the user explicitly supplied
the values.
This new commit simply reverts the offending one-line change.
