      ALSA: us122l: Use alloc_pages_exact() · 36b8defc
      Takashi Iwai authored
      alloc_pages_exact() is more suitable choice for allocating the sound
      buffers, as it doesn't need to align with power-of-two.  Along with
      the conversion, we can drop __GFP_COMP as well.
      
      The patch also replace the error messages to be more explicit.

      ALSA: Replace snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() with standard helpers, take#2 · 734b5a0b
      Takashi Iwai authored
      snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() are merely thin wrappers of
      the standard page allocator / free functions.  Even the arguments are
      compatible with some standard helpers, so there is little merit of
      keeping these wrappers.
      
      This patch replaces the all existing callers of snd_malloc_pages() and
      snd_free_pages() with the direct calls of the standard helper
      functions.  In this version, we use a recently introduced one,
      alloc_pages_exact(), which suits better than the old
      snd_malloc_pages() implementation for our purposes.  Then we can avoid
      the waste of pages by alignment to power-of-two.
      
      Since alloc_pages_exact() does split pages, we need no longer
      __GFP_COMP flag; or better to say, we must not pass __GFP_COMP to
      alloc_pages_exact().  So the former unconditional addition of
      __GFP_COMP flag in snd_malloc_pages() is dropped, as well as in most
      other places.

      ALSA: emux: Add support of loading GUS-patch · e42dd3ee
      Takashi Iwai authored
      It's a feature request for the ancient sutff, but it's still valid;
      the loading of a GUS-patch isn't available via hwdep device although
      it's supported over OSS sequencer.  The only missing piece is the call
      of snd_soundfont_load_guspatch() in synth emux hwdep code.

      ALSA: firewire-lib: use 8 byte header for IR context to get isochronous cycle · cc4f8e91
      Takashi Sakamoto authored
      In kernel API of Linux FireWire subsystem, handlers of isochronous
      receive (IR) context can get context headers as an argument of
      callback. When 4 byte header is used, the context header includes
      isochronous packet header for each packet. When 8 byte header is
      used, it includes isochronous cycle as well.
      
      ALSA IEC 61883-1/6 engine uses 4 byte header, and computes isochronous
      cycle from the cycle of interrupt. The usage of 8 byte header can
      obsolete the computation.
      
      Furthermore, this change works well for a case that a series of
      packet in one interrupt includes skipped isochronous cycle,
      
      This commit uses 8 byte header to handle isochronous cycle.

      ALSA: firewire-motu: add support MOTU 8pre FireWire · 35033d8c
      Takashi Sakamoto authored
      This commit adds support for MOTU 8pre FireWire, which was shipped 2007
      and nowadays already discontinued. Userspace applications can transmit
      and receive PCM frames and MIDI messages for this model via ALSA PCM
      interface and RawMidi/Sequencer interfaces.
      
      Like the other models of MOTU FireWire series, this model has many
      quirks in its CIP.
      
      At first, data channels for two pairs of optical interfaces. At lower
      sampling transmission frequency, i.e. 44.1 and 48.0 kHz, one pair is
      available for ADAT data, thus 8 data chunks are transferred by CIP.
      At middle sampling transmission frequency, i.e.  88.2 and 96.0 kHz,
      two pairs are available to keep 8 chunks for ADAT data, thus CIP
      still includes 8 data chunks.
      
      Apart from data chunks for optical interface, CIP includes fixed number
      of data chunks. In tx stream, two chunks for status message, eight
      chunks for samples from analog 1-8 input, two chunks for mix-return.
      In rx stream, two chunks for control message, two chunks for main 1-2
      output, two chunks for phone 1-2 output, two chunks for dummy 1-2.
      
      CIP header in tx stream includes quirks for its dbs and dbc fields.
      The value of dbs field is fixed to 0x13, against its actual size.
      The value of dbc field is firstly updated to 0x07 from zero, then
      it's incremented continuously according to actual number of data h
      blocks.
      
      Finally, the model has own bits to disable frame fetch.
      
      This commit uses several options to absorb the above quirks.

      ALSA: firewire-motu: use 'version' field of unit directory to identify model · 2d012c65
      Takashi Sakamoto authored
      Current ALSA firewire-motu driver uses the value of 'model' field
      of unit directory in configuration ROM for modalias for MOTU
      FireWire models. However, as long as I checked, Pre8 and
      828mk3(Hybrid) have the same value for the field (=0x100800).
      
      unit            | version   | model
      --------------- | --------- | ----------
      828mkII         | 0x000003  | 0x101800
      Traveler        | 0x000009  | 0x107800
      Pre8            | 0x00000f  | 0x100800 <-
      828mk3(FW)      | 0x000015  | 0x106800
      AudioExpress    | 0x000033  | 0x104800
      828mk3(Hybrid)  | 0x000035  | 0x100800 <-
      
      When updating firmware for MOTU 8pre FireWire from v1.0.0 to v1.0.3,
      I got change of the value from 0x100800 to 0x103800. On the other
      hand, the value of 'version' field is fixed to 0x00000f. As a quick
      glance, the higher 12 bits of the value of 'version' field represent
      firmware version, while the lower 12 bits is unknown.
      
      By induction, the value of 'version' field represents actual model.
      
      This commit changes modalias to match the value of 'version' field,
      instead of 'model' field. For degug, long name of added sound card
      includes hexadecimal value of 'model' field.

      kbuild: Make NOSTDINC_FLAGS a simply expanded variable · 0c22be07
      Douglas Anderson authored
      During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of
      the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include".  We don't
      need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice.
      
      Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid
      this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be
      recursively expanded.
      
      On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build.
      
      Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really
      old) commit e8f5bdb0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering").
      It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch
      the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid
      directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because
      someone else (out of tree?) was setting it.  I presume later since if

        Thus it would be more foolproof to explicitly use 1.0 (as we always
        did) than to rely on dpkg-source's defaults.
      
      * In a similar vein, debian/rules is not made executable by mkdebian,
        and dpkg-source warns about that but still silently fixes the file.
        Let's be explicit once again.

      coccinelle: semantic code search for missing put_device() · da9cfb87
      Wen Yang authored
      The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device
      structure, we should release that reference.
      The implementation of this semantic code search is:
      In a function, for a local variable returned by calling
      of_find_device_by_node(),
      a, if it is released by a function such as
         put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use,
         it is considered that there is no reference leak;
      b, if it is passed back to the caller via
         dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the
         reference will be released in other functions, and the current function
         also considers that there is no reference leak;
      c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the
         reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the
         corresponding error message.
      
      By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks,
      such as:
      commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in
      fsl_asoc_card_probe")
      commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak")
      commit 11493f26 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak")
      
      There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code.
      
      Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also
      have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to
      further check the reference leak.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
       "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/
        as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
        will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
        the processes they refer to.
      
        With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct
        pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
        its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
        to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.
      
        With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
        example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
        process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
        parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
        rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
        in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
        process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
        quite handy.
      
        There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
        management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
        and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
        suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
        most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
        the future once they are needed.
      
        This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
        caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
        functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
        a pidfd.
      
        Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
        cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:
      
            https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/
      
        The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
        the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
       "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
        "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
        the core-mm as "System RAM".
      
        Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
        memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
        differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
        typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
        allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
        model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
        RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
        it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
        generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
        purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
        used to restore the memory assignment.
      
        One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
        data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
        NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
        at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
        requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
        administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
        lack security capable NVDIMMs.
      
        Summary:
      
         - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
           include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.
      
         - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range
      
         - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
           address-range to the core-mm.
      
         - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
           newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"
      
      NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
      we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
      accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
      inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
      (not described) circumstances.
      
      And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
      RAM.  The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
      get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
      the user space tooling.
      
      Quoting Dan from another email:
       "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
        and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
        for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
        notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
        background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
        kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
        case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.
      
        I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
        tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
        making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
        the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
        possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active
        application coordination"

      Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
      
       - An improvement from Ard Biesheuvel, who noted that the identity map
         setup was taking a long time due to flush_cache_louis().
      
       - Update a comment about dma_ops from Wolfram Sang.
      
       - Remove use of "-p" with ld, where this flag has been a no-op since
         2004.
      
       - Remove the printing of the virtual memory layout, which is no longer
         useful since we hide pointers.
      
       - Correct SCU help text.
      
       - Remove legacy TWD registration method.
      
       - Add pgprot_device() implementation for mapping PCI sysfs resource
         files.
      
       - Initialise PFN limits earlier for kmemleak.
      
       - Fix argument count to match macro definition (affects clang builds)
      
       - Use unified assembler language almost everywhere for clang, and other
         clang improvements (from Stefan Agner, Nathan Chancellor).
      
       - Support security extension for noMMU and other noMMU cleanups (from
         Vladimir Murzin).
      
       - Remove unnecessary SMP bringup code (which was incorrectly copy'n'
         pasted from the ARM platform implementations) and remove it from the
         arch code to discourge further copys of it appearing.
      
       - Add Cortex A9 erratum preventing kexec working on some SoCs.
      
       - AMBA bus identification updates from Mike Leach.
      
       - More use of raw spinlocks to avoid -RT kernel issues (from Yang Shi
         and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).
      
       - MCPM hyp/svc mode mismatch fixes from Marek Szyprowski.
