commit dd8004af: 'regulator: core: Log when a device causes a voltage constraint fail', tried to print out some information about the check consumer min/max uV fixup, however, it uses a garbage pointer left over from list_for_each_entry leading to boot messages in the form: '[ 2.079890] <RANDOM ASCII>: Restricting voltage, 3735899821-4294967295uV' Because it references regulator->dev, it could potentially read memory from anywhere causing a panic. This patch instead uses rdev and the updated min/max uV values. Signed-off-by: Russ Dill <Russ.Dill@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King: "I was going to hold these off until v3.8 was out, and send them with a stable tag, but as everyone else is pushing much bigger fixes which Linus is accepting, let's save people from the hastle of having to patch v3.8 back into working or use a stable kernel. Looking at the diffstat, this really is high value for its size; this is miniscule compared to how the -rc6 to tip diffstat currently looks. So, four patches in this set: - Punit Agrawal reports that the kernel no longer boots on MPCore due to a new assumption made in the GIC code which isn't true of earlier GIC designs. This is the biggest change in this set. - Punit's boot log also revealed a bunch of WARN_ON() dumps caused by the DT-ification of the GIC support without fixing up non-DT Realview - which now sees a greater number of interrupts than it did before. - A fix for the DMA coherent code from Marek which uses the wrong check for atomic allocations; this can result in spinlock lockups or other nasty effects. - A fix from Will, which will affect all Android based platforms if not applied (which use the 2G:2G VM split) - this causes particularly 'make' to misbehave unless this bug is fixed." * 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm: ARM: 7641/1: memory: fix broken mmap by ensuring TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is aligned ARM: DMA mapping: fix bad atomic test ARM: realview: ensure that we have sufficient IRQs available ARM: GIC: fix GIC cpumask initialization

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Revert iwlwifi reclaimed packet tracking, it causes problems for a bunch of folks. From Emmanuel Grumbach. 2) Work limiting code in brcmsmac wifi driver can clear tx status without processing the event. From Arend van Spriel. 3) rtlwifi USB driver processes wrong SKB, fix from Larry Finger. 4) l2tp tunnel delete can race with close, fix from Tom Parkin. 5) pktgen_add_device() failures are not checked at all, fix from Cong Wang. 6) Fix unintentional removal of carrier off from tun_detach(), otherwise we confuse userspace, from Michael S. Tsirkin. 7) Don't leak socket reference counts and ubufs in vhost-net driver, from Jason Wang. 8) vmxnet3 driver gets it's initial carrier state wrong, fix from Neil Horman. 9) Protect against USB networking devices which spam the host with 0 length frames, from Bjørn Mork. 10) Prevent neighbour overflows in ipv6 for locally destined routes, from Marcelo Ricardo. This is the best short-term fix for this, a longer term fix has been implemented in net-next. 11) L2TP uses ipv4 datagram routines in it's ipv6 code, whoops. This mistake is largely because the ipv6 functions don't even have some kind of prefix in their names to suggest they are ipv6 specific. From Tom Parkin. 12) Check SYN packet drops properly in tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack(), from Yuchung Cheng. 13) Fix races and TX skb freeing bugs in via-rhine's NAPI support, from Francois Romieu and your's truly. 14) Fix infinite loops and divides by zero in TCP congestion window handling, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Ilpo Järvinen. 15) AF_PACKET tx ring handling can leak kernel memory to userspace, fix from Phil Sutter. 16) Fix error handling in ipv6 GRE tunnel transmit, from Tommi Rantala. 17) Protect XEN netback driver against hostile frontend putting garbage into the rings, don't leak pages in TX GOP checking, and add proper resource releasing in error path of xen_netbk_get_requests(). From Ian Campbell. 18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with kzfree(), from Daniel Borkmann. 19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb->truesize, and ends up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet sending is halted indefinitely. Just remove the adjustments entirely, they aren't really needed. From Eric Dumazet. 20) ATM Iphase driver uses a data type with the same name as the S390 headers, rename to fix the build. From Heiko Carstens. 21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB to another, from Pravin B Shelar. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (56 commits) net: sctp: sctp_endpoint_free: zero out secret key data net: sctp: sctp_setsockopt_auth_key: use kzfree instead of kfree atm/iphase: rename fregt_t -> ffreg_t net: usb: fix regression from FLAG_NOARP code l2tp: dont play with skb->truesize net: sctp: sctp_auth_key_put: use kzfree instead of kfree netback: correct netbk_tx_err to handle wrap around. xen/netback: free already allocated memory on failure in xen_netbk_get_requests xen/netback: don't leak pages on failure in xen_netbk_tx_check_gop. xen/netback: shutdown the ring if it contains garbage. net: qmi_wwan: add more Huawei devices, including E320 net: cdc_ncm: add another Huawei vendor specific device ipv6/ip6_gre: fix error case handling in ip6gre_tunnel_xmit() tcp: fix for zero packets_in_flight was too broad brcmsmac: rework of mac80211 .flush() callback operation ssb: unregister gpios before unloading ssb bcma: unregister gpios before unloading bcma rtlwifi: Fix scheduling while atomic bug net: usbnet: fix tx_dropped statistics tcp: ipv6: Update MIB counters for drops ...

In sctp_setsockopt_auth_key, we create a temporary copy of the user passed shared auth key for the endpoint or association and after internal setup, we free it right away. Since it's sensitive data, we should zero out the key before returning the memory back to the allocator. Thus, use kzfree instead of kfree, just as we do in sctp_auth_key_put().

We have conflicting type qualifiers for "freg_t" in s390's ptrace.h and the iphase atm device driver, which causes the compile error below. Unfortunately the s390 typedef can't be renamed, since it's a user visible api, nor can I change the include order in s390 code to avoid the conflict. So simply rename the iphase typedef to a new name.

We have received multiple reports of mmap failures when running with a 2:2 vm split. These manifest as either -EINVAL with a non page-aligned address (ending 0xaaa) or a SEGV, depending on the application. The issue is commonly observed in children of make, which appears to use bottom-up mmap (assumedly because it changes the stack rlimit). Further investigation reveals that this regression was triggered by 394ef640 ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on arm architecture"), whereby TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is no longer page-aligned for bottom-up mmap, causing get_unmapped_area to choke on misaligned addressed. This patch fixes the problem by defining TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE in terms of TASK_SIZE and explicitly aligns the result to 16M, matching the other end of the heap.

Some early GIC implementations return zero for the first distributor CPU routing register. This means we can't rely on that telling us which CPU interface we're connected to. We know that these platforms implement PPIs for IRQs 29-31 - but we shouldn't assume that these will always be populated. So, instead, scan for a non-zero CPU routing register in the first 32 IRQs and use that as our CPU mask.

Ian Campbell says: ==================== The Xen netback implementation contains a couple of flaws which can allow a guest to cause a DoS in the backend domain, potentially affecting other domains in the system. CVE-2013-0216 is a failure to sanity check the ring producer/consumer pointers which can allow a guest to cause netback to loop for an extended period preventing other work from occurring. CVE-2013-0217 is a memory leak on an error path which is guest triggerable. The following series contains the fixes for these issues, as previously included in Xen Security Advisory 39: http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-announce/2013-02/msg00001.html Changes in v2: - Typo and block comment format fixes - Added stable Cc ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

A buggy or malicious frontend should not be able to confuse netback. If we spot anything which is not as it should be then shutdown the device and don't try to continue with the ring in a potentially hostile state. Well behaved and non-hostile frontends will not be penalised. As well as making the existing checks for such errors fatal also add a new check that ensures that there isn't an insane number of requests on the ring (i.e. more than would fit in the ring). If the ring contains garbage then previously is was possible to loop over this insane number, getting an error each time and therefore not generating any more pending requests and therefore not exiting the loop in xen_netbk_tx_build_gops for an externded period. Also turn various netdev_dbg calls which no precipitate a fatal error into netdev_err, they are rate limited because the device is shutdown afterwards. This fixes at least one known DoS/softlockup of the backend domain.

This fixes up commit e8e89622 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Tue Dec 18 22:25:11 2012 +0100 drm/ttm: fix fence locking in ttm_buffer_object_transfer which leaves behind a might_sleep in atomic context, since the fence_lock spinlock is held over a kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) call. The fix is to revert the above commit and only take the lock where we need it, around the call to ->sync_obj_ref. v2: Fixup things noticed by Maarten Lankhorst: - Brown paper bag locking bug. - No need for kzalloc if we clear the entire thing on the next line. - check for bo->sync_obj (totally unlikely race, but still someone else could have snuck in) and clear fbo->sync_obj if it's cleared already.

There are transients during normal FRTO procedure during which the packets_in_flight can go to zero between write_queue state updates and firing the resulting segments out. As FRTO processing occurs during that window the check must be more precise to not match "spuriously" :-). More specificly, e.g., when packets_in_flight is zero but FLAG_DATA_ACKED is true the problematic branch that set cwnd into zero would not be taken and new segments might be sent out later.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Please consider this pull request for the 3.8 stream... Included is a bluetooth pull. Gustavo says: "Two simple fixes for 3.8. One of the patches fixes a situation where the connection wasn't terminated if a timeout ocurrs for LE an SCO connections. The other fixes prevent NULL dereference in the SMP code, it is a security fix as well." Along with those... Hauke Mehrtens provides a couple of ssb and bcma bus fixes that prevent oopses when unloading those modules. Larry Finger provides and rtlwifi fix to avoid a "scheduling while atomic" bug. Last but certainly not least, Arend van Spriel bring a brcmsmac fix that reworks the mac80211 .flush() callback in order to avoid the dreaded brcms_c_wait_for_tx_completion warnings. This one looks a little large, but I think it is safe and isolated to brcmsmac in any case. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
