      [media] adv7604: fix tx 5v detect regression · 4c18503e
      Hans Verkuil authored
      commit 0ba4581c upstream.
      
      The 5 volt detect functionality broke in 3.14: the code reads IO register 0x70
      again after it has already been cleared. Instead it should use the cached
      irq_reg_0x70 value and the io_write to 0x71 to clear 0x70 can be dropped since
      this has already been done.

      iwlwifi: mvm: inc pending frames counter also when txing non-sta · 1ddea5ad
      Liad Kaufman authored
      commit fb896c44 upstream.
      
      Until this patch, when TXing non-sta the pending_frames counter
      wasn't increased, but it WAS decreased in
      iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd_single(), what makes it negative in certain
      conditions. This in turn caused much trouble when we need to
      remove the station since we won't be waiting forever until
      pending_frames gets 0. In certain cases, we were exhausting
      the station table even in BSS mode, because we had a lot of
      stale stations.
      
      Increase the counter also in iwl_mvm_tx_skb_non_sta() after a
      successful TX to avoid this outcome.

      libata: fix HDIO_GET_32BIT ioctl · 07222ab6
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      commit 287e6611 upstream.
      
      As reported by Soohoon Lee, the HDIO_GET_32BIT ioctl does not
      work correctly in compat mode with libata.
      
      I have investigated the issue further and found multiple problems
      that all appeared with the same commit that originally introduced
      HDIO_GET_32BIT handling in libata back in linux-2.6.8 and presumably
      also linux-2.4, as the code uses "copy_to_user(arg, &val, 1)" to copy
      a 'long' variable containing either 0 or 1 to user space.
      
      The problems with this are:
      
      * On big-endian machines, this will always write a zero because it
        stores the wrong byte into user space.
      
      * In compat mode, the upper three bytes of the variable are updated
        by the compat_hdio_ioctl() function, but they now contain
        uninitialized stack data.
      
      * The hdparm tool calling this ioctl uses a 'static long' variable
        to store the result. This means at least the upper bytes are
        initialized to zero, but calling another ioctl like HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT
        would fill them with data that remains stale when the low byte
        is overwritten. Fortunately libata doesn't implement any of the
        affected ioctl commands, so this would only happen when we query
        both an IDE and an ATA device in the same command such as
        "hdparm -N -c /dev/hda /dev/sda"
      
      * The libata code for unknown reasons started using ATA_IOC_GET_IO32
        and ATA_IOC_SET_IO32 as aliases for HDIO_GET_32BIT and HDIO_SET_32BIT,
        while the ioctl commands that were added later use the normal
        HDIO_* names. This is harmless but rather confusing.
      
      This addresses all four issues by changing the code to use put_user()
      on an 'unsigned long' variable in HDIO_GET_32BIT, like the IDE subsystem
      does, and by clarifying the names of the ioctl commands.

      mac80211: minstrel: Change expected throughput unit back to Kbps · ec88457e
      Sven Eckelmann authored
      commit 212c5a5e upstream.
      
      The change from cur_tp to the function
      minstrel_get_tp_avg/minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg changed the unit used for the
      current throughput. For example in minstrel_ht the correct
      conversion between them would be:
      
          mrs->cur_tp / 10 == minstrel_ht_get_tp_avg(..).
      
      This factor 10 must also be included in the calculation of
      minstrel_get_expected_throughput and minstrel_ht_get_expected_throughput to
      return values with the unit [Kbps] instead of [10Kbps]. Otherwise routing
      algorithms like B.A.T.M.A.N. V will make incorrect decision based on these
      values. Its kernel based implementation expects expected_throughput always
      to have the unit [Kbps] and not sometimes [10Kbps] and sometimes [Kbps].
      
      The same requirement has iw or olsrdv2's nl80211 based statistics module
      which retrieve the same data via NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE.

      mac80211: fix use of uninitialised values in RX aggregation · 2011b7d1
      Chris Bainbridge authored
      commit f39ea269 upstream.
      
      Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc for struct tid_ampdu_rx to

      cfg80211/wext: fix message ordering · 11eee1c3
      Johannes Berg authored
      commit cb150b9d upstream.
      
      Since cfg80211 frequently takes actions from its netdev notifier
      call, wireless extensions messages could still be ordered badly
      since the wext netdev notifier, since wext is built into the
      kernel, runs before the cfg80211 netdev notifier. For example,
      the following can happen:
      
      5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default
          link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
      5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
          link/ether
      
      when setting the interface down causes the wext message.
      
      To also fix this, export the wireless_nlevent_flush() function
      and also call it from the cfg80211 notifier.

      wext: fix message delay/ordering · e5f07718
      Johannes Berg authored
      commit 8bf86273 upstream.
      
      Beniamino reported that he was getting an RTM_NEWLINK message for a
      given interface, after the RTM_DELLINK for it. It turns out that the
      message is a wireless extensions message, which was sent because the
      interface had been connected and disconnection while it was deleted
      caused a wext message.
      
      For its netlink messages, wext uses RTM_NEWLINK, but the message is
      without all the regular rtnetlink attributes, so "ip monitor link"
      prints just rudimentary information:
      
      5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default
          link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
      Deleted 5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default
          link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
      5: wlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
          link/ether
      (from my hwsim reproduction)
      
      This can cause userspace to get confused since it doesn't expect an
      RTM_NEWLINK message after RTM_DELLINK.
      
      The reason for this is that wext schedules a worker to send out the
      messages, and the scheduling delay can cause the messages to get out
      to userspace in different order.
      
      To fix this, have wext register a netdevice notifier and flush out
      any pending messages when netdevice state changes. This fixes any
      ordering whenever the original message wasn't sent by a notifier
      itself.

      The aiptek driver crashes in aiptek_probe() when a specially crafted USB
      device without endpoints is detected. This fix adds a check that the device
      has proper configuration expected by the driver. Also an error return value
      is changed to more matching one in one of the error paths.

      s390/mm: four page table levels vs. fork · 5b62f74b
      Martin Schwidefsky authored
      commit 3446c13b upstream.
      
      The fork of a process with four page table levels is broken since
      git commit 6252d702 "[S390] dynamic page tables."
      
      All new mm contexts are created with three page table levels and
      an asce limit of 4TB. If the parent has four levels dup_mmap will
      add vmas to the new context which are outside of the asce limit.
      The subsequent call to copy_page_range will walk the three level
      page table structure of the new process with non-zero pgd and pud
      indexes. This leads to memory clobbers as the pgd_index *and* the
      pud_index is added to the mm->pgd pointer without a pgd_deref
      in between.
      
      The init_new_context() function is selecting the number of page
      table levels for a new context. The function is used by mm_init()
      which in turn is called by dup_mm() and mm_alloc(). These two are
      used by fork() and exec(). The init_new_context() function can
      distinguish the two cases by looking at mm->context.asce_limit,
      for fork() the mm struct has been copied and the number of page
      table levels may not change. For exec() the mm_alloc() function
      set the new mm structure to zero, in this case a three-level page
      table is created as the temporary stack space is located at
      STACK_TOP_MAX = 4TB.
      
      This fixes CVE-2016-2143.
