[ Upstream commit 02322ac9 ] This patch applies the microphone-related fix created for the Acer Aspire E1-572 to the E1-472 as well, as it uses the same Realtek ALC282 CODEC and demonstrates the same issues. This patch allows an external, headset microphone to be used and limits the gain on the (quite noisy) internal microphone. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 92f9e179 ] Pause/unpause graph tracing around do_suspend_lowlevel as it has inconsistent call/return info after it jumps to the wakeup vector. The graph trace buffer will otherwise become misaligned and may eventually crash and hang on suspend. To reproduce the issue and test the fix: Run a function_graph trace over suspend/resume and set the graph function to suspend_devices_and_enter. This consistently hangs the system without this fix.

[ Upstream commit 5e031d9f ] On CI, we need to see if the number of crtcs changes to determine whether or not we need to upload the mclk table again. In practice we don't currently upload the mclk table again after the initial load. The only reason you would would be to add new states, e.g., for arbitrary mclk setting which is not currently supported. Acked-by:

[ Upstream commit 98e8b6c9 ] Mike Frysinger reported that his ptrace testcase showed strange behaviour on parisc: It was not possible to avoid a syscall and the return value of a syscall couldn't be changed. To modify a syscall number, we were missing to save the new syscall number to gr20 which is then picked up later in assembly again. The effect that the return value couldn't be changed is a side-effect of another bug in the assembly code. When a process is ptraced, userspace expects each syscall to report entrance and exit of a syscall. If a syscall number was given which doesn't exist, we jumped to the normal syscall exit code instead of informing userspace that the (non-existant) syscall exits. This unexpected behaviour confuses userspace and thus the bug was misinterpreted as if we can't change the return value. This patch fixes both problems and was tested on 64bit kernel with 32bit userspace. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 197b958c ] The OSS sequencer client tries to drain the pending events at releasing. Unfortunately, as spotted by syzkaller fuzzer, this may lead to an unkillable process state when the event has been queued at the far future. Since the process being released can't be signaled any longer, it remains and waits for the echo-back event in that far future. Back to history, the draining feature was implemented at the time we misinterpreted POSIX definition for blocking file operation. Actually, such a behavior is superfluous at release, and we should just release the device as is instead of keeping it up forever. This patch just removes the draining call that may block the release for too long time unexpectedly.

It's defined in arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/posix_types.h #ifndef __s390x__ typedef unsigned long __kernel_ino_t; ... #else /* __s390x__ */ typedef unsigned int __kernel_ino_t; So the #ifdef condition is wrong for s390x, we can just still use one cifs_uniqueid_to_ino_t() function with comparing sizeof(ino_t) and sizeof(u64) to choose the correct execution accordingly.

[ Upstream commit deb7deff ] When opening a file, SMB2_open() attempts to parse the lease state from the SMB2 CREATE Response. However, the parsing code was not careful to ensure that the create contexts are not empty or invalid, which can lead to out- of-bounds memory access.

[ Upstream commit b6853f78 ] The delete opration can allocate additional space on the HPFS filesystem due to btree split. The HPFS driver checks in advance if there is available space, so that it won't corrupt the btree if we run out of space during splitting. If there is not enough available space, the HPFS driver attempted to truncate the file, but this results in a deadlock since the commit 7dd29d8d ("HPFS: Introduce a global mutex and lock it on every callback from VFS"). This patch removes the code that tries to truncate the file and -ENOSPC is returned instead. If the user hits -ENOSPC on delete, he should try to delete other files (that are stored in a leaf btree node), so that the delete operation will make some space for deleting the file stored in non-leaf btree node.

[ Upstream commit 8479eba7 ] Commit 4167e9b2 ("mm: remove GFP_THISNODE") removed the GFP_THISNODE flag combination due to confusing semantics. It noted that alloc_misplaced_dst_page() was one such user after changes made by commit e97ca8e5 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify"). Unfortunately when GFP_THISNODE was removed, users of alloc_misplaced_dst_page() started waking kswapd and entering direct reclaim because the wrong GFP flags are cleared. The consequence is that workloads that used to fit into memory now get reclaimed which is addressed by this patch. The problem can be demonstrated with "mutilate" that exercises memcached which is software dedicated to memory object caching. The configuration uses 80% of memory and is run 3 times for varying numbers of clients. The results on a 4-socket NUMA box are mutilate 4.4.0 4.4.0 vanilla numaswap-v1 Hmean 1 8394.71 ( 0.00%) 8395.32 ( 0.01%) Hmean 4 30024.62 ( 0.00%) 34513.54 ( 14.95%) Hmean 7 32821.08 ( 0.00%) 70542.96 (114.93%) Hmean 12 55229.67 ( 0.00%) 93866.34 ( 69.96%) Hmean 21 39438.96 ( 0.00%) 85749.21 (117.42%) Hmean 30 37796.10 ( 0.00%) 50231.49 ( 32.90%) Hmean 47 18070.91 ( 0.00%) 38530.13 (113.22%) The metric is queries/second with the more the better.

The figures are aggregate but it's known that the bad activity is throughout the entire test. Note that simple streaming anon/file memory consumers also see this problem but it's not as obvious. In those cases, kswapd is awake when it should not be. As there are at least two reclaim-related bugs out there, it's worth spelling out the user-visible impact. This patch only addresses bugs related to excessive reclaim on NUMA hardware when the working set is larger than a NUMA node. There is a bug related to high kswapd CPU usage but the reports are against laptops and other UMA hardware and is not addressed by this patch. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit ad33bb04 ] pmd_trans_unstable()/pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() were introduced to locklessy (but atomically) detect when a pmd is a regular (stable) pmd or when the pmd is unstable and can infinitely transition from pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() from under us, while only holding the mmap_sem for reading (for writing not). While holding the mmap_sem only for reading, MADV_DONTNEED can run from under us and so before we can assume the pmd to be a regular stable pmd we need to compare it against pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() in an atomic way, with pmd_trans_unstable(). The old pmd_trans_huge() left a tiny window for a race. Useful applications are unlikely to notice the difference as doing MADV_DONTNEED concurrently with a page fault would lead to undefined behavior.

[ Upstream commit 9bf148cb ] In the unlikely event that regno == nr_registers then we get an array overrun on regoff because the invalid register check is currently off-by-one. Fix this with a check that regno is >= nr_registers instead. Detected with static analysis using CoverityScan.

[ Upstream commit 70e4da7a ] Commit 172b2386 ("KVM: x86: fix missed hardware breakpoints", 2016-02-10) worked around a case where the debug registers are not loaded correctly on preemption and on the first entry to KVM_RUN. However, Xiao Guangrong pointed out that the root cause must be that KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED is not being set correctly. This can indeed happen due to the lazy debug exit mechanism, which does not call kvm_update_dr7. Fix it by replacing the existing loop (more or less equivalent to kvm_update_dr0123) with calls to all the kvm_update_dr* functions. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.1+ Fixes: 172b2386Reviewed-by:

[ Upstream commit 4ee34ea3 ] The id buffer in ata_device is a DMA target, but it isn't explicitly cacheline aligned. Due to this, adjacent fields can be overwritten with stale data from memory on non coherent architectures. As a result, the kernel is sometimes unable to communicate with an ATA device. Fix this by ensuring that the id buffer is cacheline aligned. This issue is similar to that fixed by Commit 84bda12a ("libata: align ap->sector_buf"). Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 358875fd ] The AMD Family 15h Models 30h-3Fh (Kaveri) BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide omitted part of the BIOS IOMMU L2 register setup specification. Without this setup the IOMMU L2 does not fully respect write permissions when handling an ATS translation request. The IOMMU L2 will set PTE dirty bit when handling an ATS translation with write permission request, even when PTE RW bit is clear. This may occur by direct translation (which would cause a PPR) or by prefetch request from the ATC. This is observed in practice when the IOMMU L2 modifies a PTE which maps a pagecache page. The ext4 filesystem driver BUGs when asked to writeback these (non-modified) pages. Enable ATS write permission check in the Kaveri IOMMU L2 if BIOS has not. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 38e45d02 ] The setup code for the performance counters in the AMD IOMMU driver tests whether the counters can be written. It tests to setup a counter for device 00:00.0, which fails on systems where this particular device is not covered by the IOMMU. Fix this by not relying on device 00:00.0 but only on the IOMMU being present. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:
