fc3ef182a1 PCI: honor child buses add_size in hot plug configuration
commit be768912a4 upstream.

git commit c8adf9a3e8
    "PCI: pre-allocate additional resources to devices only after
	successful allocation of essential resources."

fails to take into consideration the optional-resources needed by children
devices while calculating the optional-resource needed by the bridge.

This can be a problem on some setup. For example, if a hotplug bridge has 8
children hotplug bridges, the bridge should have enough resources to accomodate
the hotplug requirements for each of its children hotplug bridges.  Currently
this is not the case.

This patch fixes the problem.

368d531593 x86/alternatives: Fix p6 nops on non-modular kernels
commit cb09cad44f upstream.

Probably a leftover from the early days of self-patching, p6nops
are marked __initconst_or_module, which causes them to be
discarded in a non-modular kernel.  If something later triggers
patching, it will overwrite kernel code with garbage.

42cc576bf2 isci: fix isci_pci_probe() generates warning on efi failure path
commit 6d70a74ffd upstream.

The oem parameter image embedded in the efi variable is at an offset
from the start of the variable.  However, in the failure path we try to
free the 'orom' pointer which is only valid when the paramaters are
being read from the legacy option-rom space.

Since failure to load the oem parameters is unlikely and we keep the
memory around in the success case just defer all de-allocation to devm.

0a442076e4 IPoIB: Fix use-after-free of multicast object
commit bea1e22df4 upstream.

Fix a crash in ipoib_mcast_join_task().  (with help from Or Gerlitz)

Commit c8c2afe360 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device
flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which
is run from the ipoib_workqueue, and hence the workqueue can't be
flushed from the context of ipoib_stop().

In the current code, ipoib_stop() (which doesn't flush the workqueue)
calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which goes and deletes all the
multicast entries.  This takes place without any synchronization with
a possible running instance of ipoib_mcast_join_task() for the same
ipoib device, leading to a crash due to NULL pointer dereference.

Fix this by making sure that the workqueue is flushed before
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() is called.  To make that possible, we move the
RTNL-lock wrapped code to ipoib_mcast_join_finish().

c07ad5e868 SCSI: hpsa: Use LUN reset instead of target reset
commit 21e89afd32 upstream.

It turns out Smart Array logical drives do not support target
reset and when the target reset fails, the logical drive will
be taken off line.  Symptoms look like this:

hpsa 0000:03:00.0: Abort request on C1:B0:T0:L0
hpsa 0000:03:00.0: resetting device 1:0:0:0
hpsa 0000:03:00.0: cp ffff880037c56000 is reported invalid (probably means target device no longer present)
hpsa 0000:03:00.0: resetting device failed.
sd 1:0:0:0: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery
sd 1:0:0:0: rejecting I/O to offline device
EXT3-fs error (device sdb1): read_block_bitmap:

LUN reset is supported though, and is what we should be using.
Target reset is also disruptive in shared SAS situations,
for example, an external MSA1210m which does support target
reset attached to Smart Arrays in multiple hosts -- a target
reset from one host is disruptive to other hosts as all LUNs
on the target will be reset and will abort all outstanding i/os
back to all the attached hosts.  So we should use LUN reset,
not target reset.

Tested this with Smart Array logical drives and with tape drives.
Not sure how this bug survived since 2009, except it must be very
rare for a Smart Array to require more than 30s to complete a request.

a4e92d29a8 Increase XHCI suspend timeout to 16ms
commit a6e097dfdf upstream.

The Intel XHCI specification says that after clearing the run/stop bit
the controller may take up to 16ms to halt. We've seen a device take
14ms, which with the current timeout of 10ms causes the kernel to
abort the suspend. Increasing the timeout to the recommended value
fixes the problem.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.37, that
contain the commit 5535b1d5f8 "USB: xHCI:
PCI power management implementation".

7c36d46d08 coredump: prevent double-free on an error path in core dumper
commit f34f9d186d upstream.

In !CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET case, if elf_note_info_init fails to allocate
memory for info->fields, it frees already allocated stuff and returns
error to its caller, fill_note_info.  Which in turn returns error to its
caller, elf_core_dump.  Which jumps to cleanup label and calls
free_note_info, which will happily try to free all info->fields again.
BOOM.

This is the fix.

9ce5f868f5 n_gsm: added interlocking for gsm_data_lock for certain code paths
commit 5e44708f75 upstream.

There were some locking holes in the management of the MUX's
message queue for 2 code paths:
1) gsmld_write_wakeup
2) receipt of CMD_FCON flow-control message
In both cases gsm_data_kick is called w/o locking so it can collide
with other other instances of gsm_data_kick (pulling messages tx_tail)
or potentially other instances of __gsm_data_queu (adding messages to tx_head)

Changed to take the tx_lock in these 2 cases

9c1ce83c12 xhci: Intel Panther Point BEI quirk.
commit 80fab3b244 upstream.

When a device with an isochronous endpoint is behind a hub plugged into
the Intel Panther Point xHCI host controller, and the driver submits
multiple frames per URB, the xHCI driver will set the Block Event
Interrupt (BEI) flag on all but the last TD for the URB.  This causes
the host controller to place an event on the event ring, but not send an
interrupt.  When the last TD for the URB completes, BEI is cleared, and
we get an interrupt for the whole URB.

However, under a Panther Point xHCI host controller, if the parent hub
is unplugged when one or more events from transfers with BEI set are on
the event ring, a port status change event is placed on the event ring,
but no interrupt is generated.  This means URBs stop completing, and the
USB device disconnect is not noticed.  Something like a USB headset will
cause mplayer to hang when the device is disconnected.

If another transfer is sent (such as running `sudo lsusb -v`), the next
transfer event seems to "unstick" the event ring, the xHCI driver gets
an interrupt, and the disconnect is reported to the USB core.

The fix is not to use the BEI flag under the Panther Point xHCI host.
This will impact power consumption and system responsiveness, because
the xHCI driver will receive an interrupt for every frame in all
isochronous URBs instead of once per URB.

Intel chipset developers confirm that this bug will be hit if the BEI
flag is used on any endpoint, not just ones that are behind a hub.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that contain
the commit 69e848c209 "Intel xhci: Support
EHCI/xHCI port switching."

f580d511e9 serial: pl011: handle corruption at high clock speeds
commit c5dd553b9f upstream.

This works around a few glitches in the ST version of the PL011
serial driver when using very high baud rates, as we do in the
Ux500: 3, 3.25, 4 and 4.05 Mbps.

Problem Observed/rootcause:

When using high baud-rates, and the baudrate*8 is getting close to
the provided clock frequency (so a division factor close to 1), when
using bursts of characters (so they are abutted), then it seems as if
there is not enough time to detect the beginning of the start-bit which
is a timing reference for the entire character, and thus the sampling
moment of character bits is moving towards the end of each bit, instead
of the middle.

Fix:
Increase slightly the RX baud rate of the UART above the theoretical
baudrate by 5%. This will definitely give more margin time to the
UART_RX to correctly sample the data at the middle of the bit period.

Also fix the ages old copy-paste error in the very stressed comment,
it's referencing the registers used in the PL010 driver rather than
the PL011 ones.

8455d77c2b staging: comedi: fix memory leak for saved channel list
commit c8cad4c89e upstream.

When `do_cmd_ioctl()` allocates memory for the kernel copy of a channel
list, it frees any previously allocated channel list in
`async->cmd.chanlist` and replaces it with the new one.  However, if the
device is ever removed (or "detached") the cleanup code in
`cleanup_device()` in "drivers.c" does not free this memory so it is
lost.

A sensible place to free the kernel copy of the channel list is in
`do_become_nonbusy()` as at that point the comedi asynchronous command
associated with the channel list is no longer valid.  Free the channel
list in `do_become_nonbusy()` instead of `do_cmd_ioctl()` and clear the
pointer to prevent it being freed more than once.

Note that `cleanup_device()` could be called at an inappropriate time
while the comedi device is open, but that's a separate bug not related
to this this patch.

`parse_insn()` is dereferencing the user-space pointer `insn->data`

bf26fa2be2 staging: speakup_soft: Fix reading of init string
commit 40fe4f8967 upstream.

softsynth_read() reads a character at a time from the init string;
when it finds the null terminator it sets the initialized flag but
then repeats the last character.

Additionally, if the read() buffer is not big enough for the init
string, the next read() will start reading from the beginning again.
So the caller may never progress to reading anything else.

Replace the simple initialized flag with the current position in
the init string, carried over between calls.  Switch to reading
real data once this reaches the null terminator.

(This assumes that the length of the init string can't change, which
seems to be the case.  Really, the string and position belong together
in a per-file private struct.)

commit 54575b05af upstream.

TIAO/DIYGADGET USB Multi-Protocol Adapter (TUMPA) is an FTDI FT2232H
based device which provides an easily accessible JTAG, SPI, I2C, serial
breakout.

http://www.diygadget.com/tiao-usb-multi-protocol-adapter-jtag-spi-i2c-serial.html
http://www.tiaowiki.com/w/TIAO_USB_Multi_Protocol_Adapter_User%27s_Manual

FTDI FT2232H provides two serial channels (A and B), but on the TUMPA
channel A is dedicated to JTAG/SPI while channel B can be used for
UART/RS-232: use the ftdi_jtag_quirk to expose only channel B as
a usb-serial interface to userspace.

7da444af10 dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON
commit ba1cbad93d upstream.

The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.

I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.

map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti.  But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

d2212d2787 vfs: dcache: fix deadlock in tree traversal
commit 8110e16d42 upstream.

IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent().  This was found to be caused
by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree
traversal.

There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted:

 1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked,
    since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move().

 2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending
    to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it
    can happen when already locked.

Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal
when rename_lock is already held.  This patch fixes all three callers of
try_to_ascend().

IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch.

[ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the
  lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work.

54d4d42b25 ARM: 7467/1: mutex: use generic xchg-based implementation for ARMv6+
commit a76d7bd96d upstream.

The open-coded mutex implementation for ARMv6+ cores suffers from a
severe lack of barriers, so in the uncontended case we don't actually
protect any accesses performed during the critical section.

Furthermore, the code is largely a duplication of the ARMv6+ atomic_dec
code but optimised to remove a branch instruction, as the mutex fastpath
was previously inlined. Now that this is executed out-of-line, we can
reuse the atomic access code for the locking (in fact, we use the xchg
code as this produces shorter critical sections).

This patch uses the generic xchg based implementation for mutexes on
ARMv6+, which introduces barriers to the lock/unlock operations and also
has the benefit of removing a fair amount of inline assembly code.

b15ab4ac6a USB: Fix race condition when removing host controllers
commit 0d00dc2611 upstream.

This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host
controller is removed while a process is reading the
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file.

The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to
determine whether or not the root hub is registered.  The is not a
valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets
registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and
deallocated.  As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can
access freed memory, causing an oops.

The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which
does get set and cleared at the appropriate times.  It also makes sure
to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that
usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they
are registered.

8ef8fa7479 MCE: Fix vm86 handling for 32bit mce handler
commit a129a7c845 upstream.

When running on 32bit the mce handler could misinterpret
vm86 mode as ring 0. This can affect whether it does recovery
or not; it was possible to panic when recovery was actually
possible.

Fix this by always forcing vm86 to look like ring 3.

[ Backport to 3.0 notes:
Things changed there slightly:
   - move mce_get_rip() up. It fills up m->cs and m->ip values which
     are evaluated in mce_severity(). Therefore move it up right before
     the mce_severity call. This seem to be another bug in 3.0?
   - Place the backport (fix m->cs in V86 case) to where m->cs gets
     filled which is mce_get_rip() in 3.0

ca465bac8c sched: Fix ancient race in do_exit()
commit b5740f4b2c upstream.

try_to_wake_up() has a problem which may change status from TASK_DEAD to
TASK_RUNNING in race condition with SMI or guest environment of virtual
machine. As a result, exited task is scheduled() again and panic occurs.

Here is the sequence how it occurs:

 ----------------------------------+-----------------------------
                                   |
            CPU A                  |             CPU B
 ----------------------------------+-----------------------------

TASK A calls exit()....

do_exit()

  exit_mm()
    down_read(mm->mmap_sem);

    rwsem_down_failed_common()

      set TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
      set waiter.task <= task A
      list_add to sem->wait_list
           :
      raw_spin_unlock_irq()
      (I/O interruption occured)

                                      __rwsem_do_wake(mmap_sem)

                                        list_del(&waiter->list);
                                        waiter->task = NULL
                                        wake_up_process(task A)
                                          try_to_wake_up()
                                             (task is still
                                               TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
                                              p->on_rq is still 1.)

                                              ttwu_do_wakeup()
                                                 (*A)
                                                   :
     (I/O interruption handler finished)

      if (!waiter.task)
          schedule() is not called
          due to waiter.task is NULL.

      tsk->state = TASK_RUNNING

          :
                                              check_preempt_curr();
                                                  :
  task->state = TASK_DEAD
                                              (*B)
                                        <---    set TASK_RUNNING (*C)

     schedule()
     (exit task is running again)
     BUG_ON() is called!
 --------------------------------------------------------

The execution time between (*A) and (*B) is usually very short,
because the interruption is disabled, and setting TASK_RUNNING at (*C)
must be executed before setting TASK_DEAD.

HOWEVER, if SMI is interrupted between (*A) and (*B),
(*C) is able to execute AFTER setting TASK_DEAD!
Then, exited task is scheduled again, and BUG_ON() is called....

If the system works on guest system of virtual machine, the time
between (*A) and (*B) may be also long due to scheduling of hypervisor,
and same phenomenon can occur.

By this patch, do_exit() waits for releasing task->pi_lock which is used
in try_to_wake_up(). It guarantees the task becomes TASK_DEAD after
waking up.

there are still many users affected.

It is strange, but the system did not crash and nothing bad happened when
the SLUB memory allocator was used. However, in case of SLOB we observed an
crash right away.

The driver should not try to switch to 1.8V when the SD 3.0 host
controller does not have any UHS capabilities bits set (SDR50, DDR50
or SDR104). See page 72 of "SD Specifications Part A2 SD Host
Controller Simplified Specification Version 3.00" under
"1.8V Signaling Enable". Instead of setting SDR12 and SDR25 in the host
capabilities data structure for all V3.0 host controllers, only set them
if SDR104, SDR50 or DDR50 is set in the host capabilities register. This
will prevent the switch to 1.8V later.

09e4ad5aa6 mmc: sd: Handle SD3.0 cards not supporting UHS-I bus speed mode
commit f2815f68da upstream.

Here is Essential conditions to indicate Version 3.00 Card
(SD_SPEC=2 and SD_SPEC3=1) :
(1) The card shall support CMD6
(2) The card shall support CMD8
(3) The card shall support CMD42
(4) User area capacity shall be up to 2GB (SDSC) or 32GB (SDHC)
    User area capacity shall be more than or equal to 32GB and
    up to 2TB (SDXC)
(5) Speed Class shall be supported (SDHC or SDXC)

So even if SD card doesn't support any of the newly defined
UHS-I bus speed mode, it can advertise itself as SD3.0 cards
as long as it supports all the essential conditions of
SD3.0 cards. Given this, these type of cards should atleast
run in High Speed mode @50MHZ if it supports HS.

But current initialization sequence for SD3.0 cards is
such that these non-UHS-I SD3.0 cards runs in Default
Speed mode @25MHz.

This patch makes sure that these non-UHS-I SD3.0 cards run
in High Speed Mode @50MHz.

Tested this patch with SanDisk Extreme SDHC 8GB Class 10 card.

abfbc26e32 media: Avoid sysfs oops when an rc_dev's raw device is absent
commit 720bb6436f upstream.

For some reason, when the lirc daemon learns that a usb remote control
has been unplugged, it wants to read the sysfs attributes of the
disappearing device. This is useful for uncovering transient
inconsistencies, but less so for keeping the system running when such
inconsistencies exist.

Under some circumstances (like every time I unplug my dvb stick from
my laptop), lirc catches an rc_dev whose raw event handler has been
removed (presumably by ir_raw_event_unregister), and proceeds to
interrogate the raw protocols supported by the NULL pointer.

This patch avoids the NULL dereference, and ignores the issue of how
this state of affairs came about in the first place.

Version 2 incorporates changes recommended by Mauro Carvalho Chehab
(-ENODEV instead of -EINVAL, and a signed-off-by).

fe979e2c0a time: Move ktime_t overflow checking into timespec_valid_strict
commit cee58483cf upstream

Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to
timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526c ("time: Improve sanity checking of
timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused
timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid.

Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would
never expire, which is valid.

This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new
timespec_valid_strict function, and converts the timekeeping codes
internal checking to use this more strict function.

4ffa9a8069 time: Avoid making adjustments if we haven't accumulated anything
commit bf2ac31219 upstream

If update_wall_time() is called and the current offset isn't large
enough to accumulate, avoid re-calling timekeeping_adjust which may
change the clock freq and can cause 1ns inconsistencies with
CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE/CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE.

44fa9a0111 time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs
commit 4e8b14526c upstream

Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large
enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the
year 2262).

Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are
injected via adjtimex.

So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by
improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of
timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid
negative value or one that overflows ktime_t.

Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing
ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.
