When reading the firmware and sending commands, the length
must be bounds checked to avoid overrunning the size of the command
buffer and smashing the stack if the firmware is not in the
expected format. Add the proper check.
Device stopped to tuning some channels after regmap conversion.
Reason is that regmap_update_bits() works a bit differently for
partially volatile registers than old homemade routine. Return
back to old routine in order to fix issue.

The code to send the RX PN data (for each TID) to the firmware
has a devastating bug: it overwrites the data for TID 0 with
all the TID data, leaving the remaining TIDs zeroed. This will
allow replays to actually be accepted by the firmware, which
could allow waking up the system.
When going into/coming out of D3, the TX PN must be programmed into
and restored from the firmware respectively. The restore was broken
due to my previous commit to move PN assignment into the driver.
Sending the PN to the firmware still worked since we now use the
counter that's shared with mac80211, but accessing it through the
mac80211 API makes no sense now.
Fix this by reading/writing the counter directly. This actually
simplifies the code since we don't need to round-trip through the

6910fa1 ("arm64: enable PTE type bit in the mask for pte_modify") fixes
a problem whereby a large block of PROT_NONE mapped memory is
incorrectly mapped as block descriptors when mprotect is called.
Unfortunately, a subtle bug was introduced by this fix to the THP logic.
If one mmaps a large block of memory, then faults it such that it is
collapsed into THPs; resulting calls to mprotect on this area of memory
will lead to incorrect table descriptors being written instead of block
descriptors. This is because pmd_modify calls pte_modify which is now
allowed to modify the type of the page table entry.
This patch reverts commit 6910fa16dbe142f6a0fd0fd7c249f9883ff7fc8a, and
fixes the problem it was trying to address by adjusting PAGE_NONE to
represent a table entry. Thus no change in pte type is required when
moving from PROT_NONE to a different protection.

upper left corner. Fix it.
In order to get into 64-bit protected mode, you need to enable
paging while EFER.LMA=1. For this to work, CS.L must be 0.
Currently, we load the segments before CR0 and CR4, which means
that if RSM returns into 64-bit protected mode CS.L is already 1
and everything breaks.
Luckily, CS.L=0 is always the case when executing RSM, because it
is forbidden to execute RSM from 64-bit protected mode. Hence it
is enough to load CR0 and CR4 first, and only then the segments.

ACPI SSCN/FMCN methods were originally added because then the platform can
provide the most accurate HCNT/LCNT values to the driver. However, this
seems not to be true for Dell Inspiron 7348 where using these causes the
touchpad to fail in boot:
i2c_hid i2c-DLL0675:00: failed to retrieve report from device.
i2c_designware INT3433:00: i2c_dw_handle_tx_abort: lost arbitration
i2c_hid i2c-DLL0675:00: failed to retrieve report from device.
i2c_designware INT3433:00: controller timed out
The values received from ACPI are (in fast mode):
HCNT: 72
LCNT: 160
this translates to following timings (input clock is 100MHz on Broadwell):
tHIGH: 720 ns (spec min 600 ns)
tLOW: 1600 ns (spec min 1300 ns)
Bus period: 2920 ns (assuming 300 ns tf and tr)
Bus speed: 342.5 kHz
Both tHIGH and tLOW are within the I2C specification.
The calculated values when ACPI parameters are not used are (in fast mode):
HCNT: 87
LCNT: 159
which translates to:
tHIGH: 870 ns (spec min 600 ns)
tLOW: 1590 ns (spec min 1300 ns)
Bus period 3060 ns (assuming 300 ns tf and tr)
Bus speed 326.8 kHz
These values are also within the I2C specification.
Since both ACPI and calculated values meet the I2C specification timing
requirements it is hard to say why the touchpad does not function properly
with the ACPI values except that the bus speed is higher in this case (but
still well below the max 400kHz).
Solve this by adding DMI quirk to the driver that disables using ACPI
parameters on this particulare machine.

We need to explicitly check the AVX and AES CPU features, as we can't
infer them from the related XSAVE feature flags. For example, the
Core i3 2310M passes the XSAVE feature test but does not implement
AES-NI.
With atomic drivers we need to make sure that (at least in general)
property reads hold the right locks. But the legacy dpms property is
special and can be read locklessly. Since userspace loves to just
randomly look at that all the time (like with "status") do that.
To make it clear that we play tricks use the READ_ONCE compiler
barrier (and also for paranoia).
Note that there's not really anything bad going on since even with the
new atomic paths we eventually end up not chasing any pointers (and
hence possibly freed memory and other fun stuff). The locking WARNING
has been added in
netlink_dump() allocates skb based on the calculated min_dump_alloc or
a per socket max_recvmsg_len.
min_alloc_size is maximum space required for any single netdev
attributes as calculated by rtnl_calcit().
max_recvmsg_len tracks the user provided buffer to netlink_recvmsg.
It is capped at 16KiB.
The intention is to avoid small allocations and to minimize the number
of calls required to obtain dump information for all net devices.
netlink_dump packs as many small messages as could fit within an skb
that was sized for the largest single netdev information. The actual
space available within an skb is larger than what is requested. It could
be much larger and up to near 2x with align to next power of 2 approach.
Allowing netlink_dump to use all the space available within the
allocated skb increases the buffer size a user has to provide to avoid
truncaion (i.e. MSG_TRUNG flag set).
It was observed that with many VLANs configured on at least one netdev,
a larger buffer of near 64KiB was necessary to avoid "Message truncated"
error in "ip link" or "bridge [-c[ompressvlans]] vlan show" when
min_alloc_size was only little over 32KiB.
This patch trims skb to allocated size in order to allow the user to
avoid truncation with more reasonable buffer size.

In commit e3eea1eb47a ("tipc: clean up handling of message priorities")
we introduced a field in the packet header for keeping track of the
priority of fragments, since this value is not present in the specified
protocol header. Since the value so far only is used at the transmitting
end of the link, we have not yet officially defined it as part of the
protocol.
Unfortunately, the field we use for keeping this value, bits 13-15 in
in word 5, has turned out to be a poor choice; it is already used by the
broadcast protocol for carrying the 'network id' field of the sending
node. Since packet fragments also need to be transported across the
broadcast protocol, the risk of conflict is obvious, and we see this
happen when we use network identities larger than 2^13-1. This has
escaped our testing because we have so far only been using small network
id values.
We now move this field to bits 0-2 in word 9, a field that is guaranteed

As originally written rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev makes no sense when
called with dev == NULL as it attempts to flush all uncached routes
regardless of network namespace when dev == NULL. Which is simply
incorrect behavior.
Furthermore at the point rt6_ifdown is called with dev == NULL no more
network devices exist in the network namespace so even if the code in
rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev were to attempt something sensible it
would be meaningless.
Therefore remove support in rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev for handling
network devices where dev == NULL, and only call rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev
when rt6_ifdown is called with a network device.

When sockets have a native eBPF program attached through
setsockopt(sk, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_BPF, ...), and then try to
dump these over getsockopt(sk, SOL_SOCKET, SO_GET_FILTER, ...),
the following panic appears:
The underlying issue is the very same as in commit b382c0865600
("sock, diag: fix panic in sock_diag_put_filterinfo"), that is,
native eBPF programs don't store an original program since this
is only needed in cBPF ones.
However, sk_get_filter() wasn't updated to test for this at the
time when eBPF could be attached. Just throw an error to the user
to indicate that eBPF cannot be dumped over this interface.
That way, it can also be known that a program _is_ attached (as
opposed to just return 0), and a different (future) method needs
to be consulted for a dump.

Since commit 2b018d57ff18 ("pppoe: drop PPPOX_ZOMBIEs in pppoe_release"),
pppoe_release() calls dev_put(po->pppoe_dev) if sk is in the

PPPOX_ZOMBIE _and_ reset po->pppoe_dev to NULL. This leads to the

pppoe_flush_dev() has no reason to override sk->sk_state with

PPPOX_DEAD, which is the correct state given that sk is unbound and

As described both in the BZ and lkml thread @
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/8/444 calling recv() with MSG_PEEK on an
AF_UNIX socket only reads a single skb, where the desired effect is
to return as much skb data has been queued, until hitting the recv
buffer size (whichever comes first).
The modified MSG_PEEK path will now move to the next skb in the tree
and jump to the again: label, rather than following the natural loop
structure. This requires duplicating some of the loop head actions.
This was tested using the python socketpair python code attached to
the bugzilla issue.

Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next
larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping. In kernels
3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size.
However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via
kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG().
The mapping table in the latest kernel is like:
index = {0, 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, n}
size = {0, 96, 192, 8, 16, 32, 64, 2^n}
The mapping table before 3.10 is like this:
index = {0 , 1 , 2, 3, 4 , 5 , 6, n}
size = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)}
The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows:
(1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB && DEBUG_PAGEALLOC && DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
&& DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150",
and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE
kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node))
(2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8.
(3) Then "if(size >= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size
= PAGE_SIZE".
(4) Then "if ((size >= (PAGE_SIZE >> 3))" test will be satisfied and
"flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered.
(5) if (flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to
"cachep->slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result
here may be NULL while kernel bootup.
(6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep->slabp_cache));" causes the
BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem):
This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes
the BUG by adding 'size >= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary
small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in

There seems to be two problems causing this issue.
First, in drivers/tty/n_tty.c, __receive_buf() stores the data and
updates ldata->commit_head using smp_store_release() and then checks
the wait queue using waitqueue_active(). However, since there is no
memory barrier, __receive_buf() could return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and at the same time, n_tty_read() could
start to wait in wait_woken() as in the following chart.
__receive_buf() n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (waitqueue_active(&tty->read_wait))
/* Memory operations issued after the
RELEASE may be completed before the
RELEASE operation has completed */
add_wait_queue(&tty->read_wait, &wait);
...
if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
smp_store_release(&ldata->commit_head,
ldata->read_head);
...
timeout = wait_woken(&wait,
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The second problem is that n_tty_read() also lacks a memory barrier
call and could also cause __receive_buf() to return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and n_tty_read() to wait in wait_woken()
as in the chart below.
__receive_buf() n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
spin_lock_irqsave(&q->lock, flags);
/* from add_wait_queue() */
...
if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
/* Memory operations issued after the
RELEASE may be completed before the
RELEASE operation has completed */
smp_store_release(&ldata->commit_head,
ldata->read_head);
if (waitqueue_active(&tty->read_wait))
__add_wait_queue(q, wait);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&q->lock,flags);
/* from add_wait_queue() */
...
timeout = wait_woken(&wait,
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are also other places in drivers/tty/n_tty.c which have similar
calls to waitqueue_active(), so instead of adding many memory barrier
calls, this patch simply removes the call to waitqueue_active(),
leaving just wake_up*() behind.
This fixes both problems because, even though the memory access before
or after the spinlocks in both wake_up*() and add_wait_queue() can
sneak into the critical section, it cannot go past it and the critical
section assures that they will be serialized (please see "INTER-CPU
ACQUIRING BARRIER EFFECTS" in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt for a
better explanation). Moreover, the resulting code is much simpler.
Latency measurement using a ping-pong test over a pty doesn't show any
visible performance drop.
The cleaner policy doesn't make use of the per cache block hint space in
the metadata (unlike the other policies). When switching from the
cleaner policy to mq or smq a NULL pointer crash (in dm_tm_new_block)
was observed. The crash was caused by bugs in dm-cache-metadata.c
when trying to skip creation of the hint btree.
The minimal fix is to change hint size for the cleaner policy to 4 bytes
(only hint size supported).

possible cause of the behavior we've been seeing: commit 766c4cbfacd8"
Al Viro says:
"What happens is that 766c4cbfacd8 got the things subtly wrong.
We used to treat d_is_negative() after lookup_fast() as "fall with

protection is unreliable and failing with hard error on what should've
fallen back to non-RCU pathname resolution is a bug.
Unfortunately, we'd pulled the test too far up and ran afoul of
another kind of staleness. The dentry might have been absolutely
stable from the RCU point of view (and we might be on UP, etc), but
stale from the remote fs point of view. If ->d_revalidate() returns
"it's actually stale", dentry gets thrown away and the original code
wouldn't even have looked at its ->d_flags.
What we need is to check ->d_flags where 766c4cbfacd8 does (prior to
->d_seq validation) but only use the result in cases where we do not
discard this dentry outright"
