commit 3577af70 upstream. We saw a kernel soft lockup in perf_remove_from_context(), it looks like the `perf` process, when exiting, could not go out of the retry loop. Meanwhile, the target process was forking a child. So either the target process should execute the smp function call to deactive the event (if it was running) or it should do a context switch which deactives the event. It seems we optimize out a context switch in perf_event_context_sched_out(), and what's more important, we still test an obsolete task pointer when retrying, so no one actually would deactive that event in this situation. Fix it directly by reloading the task pointer in perf_remove_from_context(). This should cure the above soft lockup. Signed-off-by:

commit 675f0ab2 upstream. Make sure the uwb_dev->bce entry is set before calling uwb_dev_add in uwbd_dev_onair so that usermode will only see the device after it is properly initialized. This fixes a kernel panic that can occur if usermode tries to access the IEs sysfs attribute of a UWB device before the driver has had a chance to set the beacon cache entry. Signed-off-by:

commit 96908589 upstream. Commit 71c731a2 (usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode on SN65LVP3502CP Hardware) implemented a workaround for a known issue with Texas Instruments' USB 3.0 redriver IC but it left a condition where any xHCI host would be taken out of reset if port was placed in compliance mode and there was no device connected to the port. That condition would trigger a fake connection to a non-existent device so that usbcore would trigger a warm reset of the port, thus taking the link out of reset. This has the side-effect of preventing any xHCI host connected to a Linux machine from starting and running the USB 3.0 Electrical Compliance Suite because the port will mysteriously taken out of compliance mode and, thus, xHCI won't step through the necessary compliance patterns for link validation. This patch fixes the issue by just adding a missing check for XHCI_COMP_MODE_QUIRK inside xhci_hub_report_usb3_link_state() when PORT_CAS isn't set. This patch should be backported to all kernels containing commit 71c731a2. Fixes: 71c731a2 (usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode on SN65LVP3502CP Hardware) Cc: Alexis R.

commit fed33afc upstream. Currently, we disable pm_runtime before all register accesses are done, this is dangerous and might lead to abort exceptions due to the driver trying to access a register which is clocked by a clock which was long gated. Fix that by moving pm_runtime_put_sync() and pm_runtime_disable() as the last thing we do before returning from our ->remove() method.

commit 6726655d upstream. There is a following AB-BA dependency between cpu_hotplug.lock and cpuidle_lock: 1) cpu_hotplug.lock -> cpuidle_lock enable_nonboot_cpus() _cpu_up() cpu_hotplug_begin() LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock) cpu_notify() ... acpi_processor_hotplug() cpuidle_pause_and_lock() LOCK(cpuidle_lock) 2) cpuidle_lock -> cpu_hotplug.lock acpi_os_execute_deferred() workqueue ... acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() cpuidle_pause_and_lock() LOCK(cpuidle_lock) get_online_cpus() LOCK(cpu_hotplug.lock) Fix this by reversing the order acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() does thigs -- let it first execute the protection against CPU hotplug by calling get_online_cpus() and obtain the cpuidle lock only after that (and perform the symmentric change when allowing CPUs hotplug again and dropping cpuidle lock).

commit 61a734d3 upstream. Always freeze processes when suspending and thaw processes when resuming to prevent a race noticeable with HVM guests. This prevents a deadlock where the khubd kthread (which is designed to be freezable) acquires a usb device lock and then tries to allocate memory which requires the disk which hasn't been resumed yet. Meanwhile, the xenwatch thread deadlocks waiting for the usb device lock. Freezing processes fixes this because the khubd thread is only thawed after the xenwatch thread finishes resuming all the devices. Signed-off-by:

commit 049255f5 upstream. Sierra Wireless Direct IP devices using the 68A3 product ID can be configured for modes including a CDC ECM class function. The known example uses interface numbers 12 and 13 for the ECM control and data interfaces respectively, consistent with CDC MBIM function interface numbering on other Sierra devices. It seems cleaner to restrict this driver to the ff/ff/ff vendor specific interfaces rather than increasing the already long interface number blacklist. This should be more future proof if Sierra adds more class functions using interface numbers not yet in the blacklist. Signed-off-by:

commit bbe1c274 upstream. The __init annotations for the DMI callback functions are wrong as this code can be called even after the module has been initialized, e.g. like this: # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.0/remove # modprobe i915 # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan The first command will remove the PCI device from the kernel's device list so the second command won't see it right away. But as it registers a PCI driver it'll see it on the third command. If the system happens to match one of the DMI table entries we'll try to call a function in long released memory and generate an Oops, at best. Fix this by removing the bogus annotation. Modpost should have caught that one but it ignores section reference mismatches from the .rodata section. :/ Fixes: 25e341cf ("drm/i915: quirk away broken OpRegion VBT") Fixes: 8ca4013d ("CHROMIUM: i915: Add DMI override to skip CRT...")

Mark Brown authored
commit 5844a8b9 upstream. A previous over-zealous factorisation of code means that we only treat registers as volatile if they are readable. For most devices this is fine since normally most registers can be read and volatility implies readability but for format_write() devices where there is no readback from the hardware and we use volatility to mean simply uncacheability this means that we end up treating all registers as cacheble. A bigger refactoring of the code to clarify this is in order but as a fix make a minimal change and only check readability when checking volatility if there is no format_write() operation defined for the device.

commit 4191f197 upstream. Using .format_write means, we have a custom function to write to the chip, but not to read back. Also, mark registers as "not precious" and "not volatile" which is implicit because we cannot read them. Make those functions use 'regmap_readable' to reuse the checks done there. Signed-off-by:

commit 614a80e4 upstream. In the early days, we had some special handling for the KVM_EXIT_S390_SIEIC exit, but this was gone in 2009 with commit d7b0b5eb (KVM: s390: Make psw available on all exits, not just a subset). Now this switch statement is just a sanity check for userspace not messing with the kvm_run structure. Unfortunately, this allows userspace to trigger a kernel BUG. Let's just remove this switch statement. Signed-off-by:

commit 849f5169 upstream. If pcpu_map_pages() fails midway, it unmaps the already mapped pages. Currently, it doesn't flush tlb after the partial unmapping. This may be okay in most cases as the established mapping hasn't been used at that point but it can go wrong and when it goes wrong it'd be extremely difficult to track down. Flush tlb after the partial unmapping. Signed-off-by:

Tejun Heo authored
commit f0d27965 upstream. When pcpu_alloc_pages() fails midway, pcpu_free_pages() is invoked to free what has already been allocated. The invocation is across the whole requested range and pcpu_free_pages() will try to free all non-NULL pages; unfortunately, this is incorrect as pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap(), unlike what its comment suggests, doesn't clear the pages array and thus the array may have entries from the previous invocations making the partial failure path free incorrect pages. Fix it by open-coding the partial freeing of the already allocated pages. Signed-off-by:

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:

commit 7209a75d upstream. 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:
