Commit 30919b0b ("x86: avoid low BIOS area when allocating address space") moved the test for resource allocations that fall within the first 1MB of address space from the PCI-specific path to a generic path, such that all resource allocations will avoid this area. However, this breaks ISA cards which need to allocate a memory region within the first 1MB. An example is the i82365 PCMCIA controller and derivatives like the Ricoh RF5C296/396 which map part of the PCMCIA socket memory address space into the first 1MB of system memory address space. They do not work anymore as no usable memory region exists due to this change: Intel ISA PCIC probe: Ricoh RF5C296/396 ISA-to-PCMCIA at port 0x3e0 ofs 0x00, 2 sockets host opts [0]: none host opts [1]: none ISA irqs (scanned) = 3,4,5,9,10 status change on irq 10 pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 1 pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: IO port probe 0xc00-0xcff: excluding 0xcf8-0xcff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: IO port probe 0xa00-0xaff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: IO port probe 0x100-0x3ff: excluding 0x170-0x177 0x1f0-0x1f7 0x2f8-0x2ff 0x370-0x37f 0x3c0-0x3e7 0x3f0-0x3ff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x0a0000-0x0affff: excluding 0xa0000-0xaffff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x0b0000-0x0bffff: excluding 0xb0000-0xbffff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x0c0000-0x0cffff: excluding 0xc0000-0xcbfff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x0d0000-0x0dffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x0e0000-0x0effff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x60000000-0x60ffffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: IO port probe 0xc00-0xcff: excluding 0xcf8-0xcff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: IO port probe 0xa00-0xaff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: IO port probe 0x100-0x3ff: excluding 0x170-0x177 0x1f0-0x1f7 0x2f8-0x2ff 0x370-0x37f 0x3c0-0x3e7 0x3f0-0x3ff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0a0000-0x0affff: excluding 0xa0000-0xaffff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0b0000-0x0bffff: excluding 0xb0000-0xbffff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0c0000-0x0cffff: excluding 0xc0000-0xcbfff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0d0000-0x0dffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0e0000-0x0effff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x60000000-0x60ffffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: clean. pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: memory probe 0x0cc000-0x0effff: excluding 0xe0000-0xeffff pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: cs: unable to map card memory!

We can't do ASPM configuration at enumeration-time because enabling it makes some defective hardware unresponsive, even if ASPM is disabled later (see 41cd766b ("PCI: Don't enable aspm before drivers have had a chance to veto it"). Therefore, we have to do it after a driver claims the device. We previously configured ASPM in pci_set_power_state(), but that's not a very good place because it's not really related to setting the PCI device power state, and doing it there means: - We incorrectly skipped ASPM config when setting a device that's already in D0 to D0. - We unnecessarily configured ASPM when setting a device to a low-power state (the ASPM feature only applies when the device is in D0). - We unnecessarily configured ASPM when called from a .resume() method (ASPM configuration needs to be restored during resume, but pci_restore_pcie_state() should already do this). Move ASPM configuration from pci_set_power_state() to do_pci_enable_device() so we do it when a driver enables a device.

The third parameter of kvm_iommu_put_pages is wrong, It should be 'gfn - slot->base_gfn'. By making gfn very large, malicious guest or userspace can cause kvm to go to this error path, and subsequently to pass a huge value as size. Alternatively if gfn is small, then pages would be pinned but never unpinned, causing host memory leak and local DOS. Passing a reasonable but large value could be the most dangerous case, because it would unpin a page that should have stayed pinned, and thus allow the device to DMA into arbitrary memory. However, this cannot happen because of the condition that can trigger the error: - out of memory (where you can't allocate even a single page) should not be possible for the attacker to trigger - when exceeding the iommu's address space, guest pages after gfn will also exceed the iommu's address space, and inside kvm_iommu_put_pages() the iommu_iova_to_phys() will fail. The page thus would not be unpinned at all. Reported-by:

The interrupt handler in the ux500 crypto driver has an obviously incorrect way to access the data buffer, which for a while has caused this build warning: ../ux500/cryp/cryp_core.c: In function 'cryp_interrupt_handler': ../ux500/cryp/cryp_core.c:234:5: warning: passing argument 1 of '__fswab32' makes integer from pointer without a cast [enabled by default] writel_relaxed(ctx->indata, ^ In file included from ../include/linux/swab.h:4:0, from ../include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:12, from ../include/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:4, from ../arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/byteorder.h:19, from ../include/asm-generic/bitops/le.h:5, from ../arch/arm/include/asm/bitops.h:340, from ../include/linux/bitops.h:33, from ../include/linux/kernel.h:10, from ../include/linux/clk.h:16, from ../drivers/crypto/ux500/cryp/cryp_core.c:12: ../include/uapi/linux/swab.h:57:119: note: expected '__u32' but argument is of type 'const u8 *' static inline __attribute_const__ __u32 __fswab32(__u32 val) There are at least two, possibly three problems here: a) when writing into the FIFO, we copy the pointer rather than the actual data we want to give to the hardware b) the data pointer is an array of 8-bit values, while the FIFO is 32-bit wide, so both the read and write access fail to do a proper type conversion c) This seems incorrect for big-endian kernels, on which we need to byte-swap any register access, but not normally FIFO accesses, at least the DMA case doesn't do it either. This converts the bogus loop to use the same readsl/writesl pair that we use for the two other modes (DMA and polling). This is more efficient and consistent, and probably correct for endianess. The bug has existed since the driver was first merged, and was probably never detected because nobody tried to use interrupt mode. It might make sense to backport this fix to stable kernels, depending on how the crypto maintainers feel about that.

When a tty is opened for the serial console, the termios c_cflag settings are inherited from the console line settings. However, if the tty is subsequently closed, the termios settings are lost. This results in a garbled console if the console is later suspended and resumed. Preserve the termios c_cflag for the serial console when the tty is shutdown; this reflects the most recent line settings. Fixes: Bugzilla #69751, 'serial console does not wake from S3' Reported-by:

This can result in the following corruption getting reported by the kernel: EXT4-fs error (device sda3): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 1126, 12793 clusters in bitmap, 12729 in gd In that case, we need to release the blocks using mb_free_blocks().

On platforms with sizeof(int) < sizeof(long), writing a temperature limit larger than MAXINT will result in unpredictable limit values written to the chip. Avoid auto-conversion from long to int to fix the problem. Voltage limits, fan minimum speed, pwm frequency, pwm ramp rate, and other attributes have the same problem, fix them as well. Zone temperature limits are signed, but were cached as u8, causing unepected values to be reported for negative temperatures. Cache as s8 to fix the problem. vrm is an u8, so the written value needs to be limited to [0, 255]. Signed-off-by:

ALC269 & co have many vendor-specific setups with COEF verbs. However, some verbs seem specific to some codec versions and they result in the codec stalling. Typically, such a case can be avoided by checking the return value from reading a COEF. If the return value is -1, it implies that the COEF is invalid, thus it shouldn't be written. This patch adds the invalid COEF checks in appropriate places accessing ALC269 and its variants. The patch actually fixes the resume problem on Acer AO725 laptop.

The EHCI packet buffer in/out threshold is programmable for Intel Quark X1000 USB host controller, and the default value is 0x20 dwords. The in/out threshold can be programmed to 0x80 dwords (512 Bytes) to maximize the perfomrance, but only when isochronous/interrupt transactions are not initiated by the USB host controller. This patch is to reconfigure the packet buffer in/out threshold as maximal as possible to maximize the performance, and 0x7F dwords (508 Bytes) should be used because the USB host controller initiates isochronous/interrupt transactions.

This patch fixes a bug in ohci-hcd. When an URB is unlinked, the corresponding Endpoint Descriptor is added to the ed_rm_list and taken off the hardware schedule. Once the ED is no longer visible to the hardware, finish_unlinks() handles the URBs that were unlinked or have completed. If any URBs remain attached to the ED, the ED is added back to the hardware schedule -- but only if the controller is running. This fails when a controller dies. A non-empty ED does not get added back to the hardware schedule and does not remain on the ed_rm_list; ohci-hcd loses track of it. The remaining URBs cannot be unlinked, which causes the USB stack to hang. The patch changes finish_unlinks() so that non-empty EDs remain on the ed_rm_list if the controller isn't running. This requires moving some of the existing code around, to avoid modifying the ED's hardware fields more than once. Signed-off-by:

We did not check relocated directory in any way when processing Rock Ridge 'CL' tag. Thus a corrupted isofs image can possibly have a CL entry pointing to another CL entry leading to possibly unbounded recursion in kernel code and thus stack overflow or deadlocks (if there is a loop created from CL entries). Fix the problem by not allowing CL entry to point to a directory entry with CL entry (such use makes no good sense anyway) and by checking whether CL entry doesn't point to itself.

device_index is a char type and the size of paired_dj_deivces is 7 elements, therefore proper bounds checking has to be applied to device_index before it is used. We are currently performing the bounds checking in logi_dj_recv_add_djhid_device(), which is too late, as malicious device could send REPORT_TYPE_NOTIF_DEVICE_UNPAIRED early enough and trigger the problem in one of the report forwarding functions called from logi_dj_raw_event().

commit 8762e509 upstream. init_espfix_ap() is currently off by one level when informing hypervisor that allocated pages will be used for ministacks' page tables. The most immediate effect of this on a PV guest is that if 'stack_page = __get_free_page()' returns a non-zeroed-out page the hypervisor will refuse to use it for a page table (which it shouldn't be anyway). This will result in warnings by both Xen and Linux. More importantly, a subsequent write to that page (again, by a PV guest) is likely to result in fatal page fault. Signed-off-by:

Right now the mvneta driver doesn't handle Tx IRQ, and relies on two mechanisms to flush Tx descriptors : a flush at the end of mvneta_tx() and a timer. If a burst of packets is emitted faster than the device can send them, then the queue is stopped until next wake-up of the timer 10ms later. This causes jerky output traffic with bursts and pauses, making it difficult to reach line rate with very few streams. A test on UDP traffic shows that it's not possible to go beyond 134 Mbps / 12 kpps of outgoing traffic with 1500-bytes IP packets. Routed traffic tends to observe pauses as well if the traffic is bursty, making it even burstier after the wake-up. It seems that this feature was inherited from the original driver but nothing there mentions any reason for not using the interrupt instead, which the chip supports. Thus, this patch enables Tx interrupts and removes the timer. It does the two at once because it's not really possible to make the two mechanisms coexist, so a split patch doesn't make sense. First tests performed on a Mirabox (Armada 370) show that less CPU seems to be used when sending traffic. One reason might be that we now call the mvneta_tx_done_gbe() with a mask indicating which queues have been done instead of looping over all of them. The same UDP test above now happily reaches 987 Mbps / 87.7 kpps. Single-stream TCP traffic can now more easily reach line rate. HTTP transfers of 1 MB objects over a single connection went from 730 to 840 Mbps. It is even possible to go significantly higher (>900 Mbps) by tweaking tcp_tso_win_divisor.

Marvell has not published the chip's datasheet yet, so it's very hard to find the relevant bits to manipulate to change the IRQ behaviour. Fortunately, these bits are described in the proprietary LSP patch set which is publicly available here : http://www.plugcomputer.org/downloads/mirabox/ So let's put them back in the driver in order to reduce the burden of current and future maintenance.

Stats writers are mvneta_rx() and mvneta_tx(). They don't lock anything when they update the stats, and as a result, it randomly happens that the stats freeze on SMP if two updates happen during stats retrieval. This is very easily reproducible by starting two HTTP servers and binding each of them to a different CPU, then consulting /proc/net/dev in loops during transfers, the interface should immediately lock up. This issue also randomly happens upon link state changes during transfers, because the stats are collected in this situation, but it takes more attempts to reproduce it. The comments in netdevice.h suggest using per_cpu stats instead to get rid of this issue. This patch implements this. It merges both rx_stats and tx_stats into a single "stats" member with a single syncp. Both mvneta_rx() and mvneta_rx() now only update the a single CPU's counters. In turn, mvneta_get_stats64() does the summing by iterating over all CPUs to get their respective stats. With this change, stats are still correct and no more lockup is encountered. Note that this bug was present since the first import of the mvneta driver. It might make sense to backport it to some stable trees. If so, it depends on "d33dc73 net: mvneta: increase the 64-bit rx/tx stats out of the hot path".

Better count packets and bytes in the stack and on 32 bit then accumulate them at the end for once. This saves two memory writes and two memory barriers per packet. The incoming packet rate was increased by 4.7% on the Openblocks AX3 thanks to this.

This reverts commit 277d916f as it was at least breaking iwlwifi by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag in all kinds of interface modes, not only for AP mode where it is appropriate. To avoid reintroducing the original problem, explicitly check for probe request frames in the multicast buffering code.

This moves the espfix64 logic into native_iret. To make this work, it gets rid of the native patch for INTERRUPT_RETURN: INTERRUPT_RETURN on native kernels is now 'jmp native_iret'. This changes the 16-bit SS behavior on Xen from OOPSing to leaking some bits of the Xen hypervisor's RSP (I think). [ hpa: this is a nonzero cost on native, but probably not enough to measure. Xen needs to fix this in their own code, probably doing something equivalent to espfix64. ] Signed-off-by:

Make espfix64 a hidden Kconfig option. This fixes the x86-64 UML build which had broken due to the non-existence of init_espfix_bsp() in UML: since UML uses its own Kconfig, this option does not appear in the UML build. This also makes it possible to make support for 16-bit segments a configuration option, for the people who want to minimize the size of the kernel. Reported-by:
