In a few places in sequencer core, we temporarily unlock / re-lock the
pool spin lock while waiting for the allocation in the blocking mode.
There spin_unlock_irq() / spin_lock_irq() pairs are called while
initially spin_lock_irqsave() is used (and spin_lock_irqrestore() at
the end of the function again).  This is likely OK for now, but it's a
bit confusing and error-prone.

This patch replaces these temporary relocking lines with the irqsave
variant to make the lock/unlock sequence more consistently.

This is essentially a revert of the commit a7588c89 ("ALSA: timer:
Check ack_list emptiness instead of bit flag").  The intended change
by the commit turns out to be insufficient, as snd_timer_close*()
always calls snd_timer_stop() that deletes the ack_list beforehand.

In theory, we can change the behavior of snd_timer_stop() to sync the
pending ack_list, but this will become a deadlock for the callback
like sequencer that calls again snd_timer_stop() from itself.  So,
reverting the change is a more straightforward solution.

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.

snd_timer_close() is supposed to close the timer instance and sync
with the deactivation of pending actions.  However, there are still
some overlooked cases:

- It calls snd_timer_stop() at the beginning, but some other might
  re-trigger the timer right after that.

- snd_timer_stop() calls del_timer_sync() only when all belonging
  instances are closed.  If multiple instances were assigned to a
  timer object and one is closed, the timer is still running.  Then
  the pending action assigned to this timer might be left.

Actually either of the above is the likely cause of the reported
syzkaller UAF.

This patch plug these holes by introducing SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_DEAD
flag.  This is set at the beginning of snd_timer_close(), and the flag
is checked at snd_timer_start*() and else, so that no longer new
action is left after snd_timer_close().

SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_CALLBACK around the call of callbacks.  This can be

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 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.

FireWire models. However, as long as I checked, Pre8 and

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.

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of

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
the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would

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.

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:

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"
