commit 05197921 upstream. According "5.3.6 Capability Parameters (HCCPARAMS)" of xHCI rev0.96 spec, value of xECP register indicates a relative offset, in 32-bit words, from Base to the beginning of the first extended capability. The wrong calculation will cause BIOS handoff fail (not handoff from BIOS) in some platform with BIOS USB legacy sup support. Signed-off-by:

commit ced5b697 upstream. Keep chip_data in create_irq_nr and destroy_irq. When two drivers are setting up MSI-X at the same time via pci_enable_msix() there is a race. See this dmesg excerpt: [ 85.170610] ixgbe 0000:02:00.1: irq 97 for MSI/MSI-X [ 85.170611] alloc irq_desc for 99 on node -1 [ 85.170613] igb 0000:08:00.1: irq 98 for MSI/MSI-X [ 85.170614] alloc kstat_irqs on node -1 [ 85.170616] alloc irq_2_iommu on node -1 [ 85.170617] alloc irq_desc for 100 on node -1 [ 85.170619] alloc kstat_irqs on node -1 [ 85.170621] alloc irq_2_iommu on node -1 [ 85.170625] ixgbe 0000:02:00.1: irq 99 for MSI/MSI-X [ 85.170626] alloc irq_desc for 101 on node -1 [ 85.170628] igb 0000:08:00.1: irq 100 for MSI/MSI-X [ 85.170630] alloc kstat_irqs on node -1 [ 85.170631] alloc irq_2_iommu on node -1 [ 85.170635] alloc irq_desc for 102 on node -1 [ 85.170636] alloc kstat_irqs on node -1 [ 85.170639] alloc irq_2_iommu on node -1 [ 85.170646] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000088 As you can see igb and ixgbe are both alternating on create_irq_nr() via pci_enable_msix() in their probe function. ixgbe: While looping through irq_desc_ptrs[] via create_irq_nr() ixgbe choses irq_desc_ptrs[102] and exits the loop, drops vector_lock and calls dynamic_irq_init. Then it sets irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data = NULL via dynamic_irq_init(). igb: Grabs the vector_lock now and starts looping over irq_desc_ptrs[] via create_irq_nr(). It gets to irq_desc_ptrs[102] and does this: cfg_new = irq_desc_ptrs[102]->chip_data; if (cfg_new->vector != 0) continue; This hits the NULL deref. Another possible race exists via pci_disable_msix() in a driver or in the number of error paths that call free_msi_irqs(): destroy_irq() dynamic_irq_cleanup() which sets desc->chip_data = NULL ...race window... desc->chip_data = cfg; Remove the save and restore code for cfg in create_irq_nr() and destroy_irq() and take the desc->lock when checking the irq_cfg.

commit 817a824b upstream. There's a path in the pagefault code where the kernel deliberately breaks its own locking rules by kmapping a high pte page without holding the pagetable lock (in at least page_check_address). This breaks Xen's ability to track the pinned/unpinned state of the page. There does not appear to be a viable workaround for this behaviour so simply disable HIGHPTE for all Xen guests.

commit 08fedfc9 upstream. Studying the DSDTs of various thinkpads, it looks like bit 3 of the argument to SBDC and SWAN is not "set radio to last state on resume". Rather, it seems to be "if this bit is set, enable radio on resume, otherwise disable it on resume". So, the proper way to prepare the radios for S3 suspend is: disable radio and clear bit 3 on the SBDC/SWAN call to to resume with radio disabled, and enable radio and set bit 3 on the SBDC/SWAN call to resume with the radio enabled. Also, for persistent devices, the rfkill core does not restore state, so we really need to get the firmware to do the right thing. We don't sync the radio state on suspend, instead we trust the BIOS to not do anything weird if we never touched the radio state since boot. Time will tell if that's a wise way of doing things...

commit 7f0cf712 upstream. Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo reports this: Brightness notification does not work until the user writes to hotkey_mask attribute. That's because the polling thread will only run if hotkey_user_mask is set and someone is reading the input device or if hotkey_driver_mask is set. In this second case, this condition is not tested after the mask is changed, because the brightness and volume drivers are started after the hotkey drivers. Fix tpacpi_hotkey_driver_mask_set() to call hotkey_poll_setup(), so that the poller kthread will be started when needed. Reported-by:

commit bf8b29c8 upstream. Event 0x3006 is used to help power management of the ODD in the UltraBay. The EC generates this event when the ODD eject button is pressed (even if the bay is powered down). Normally, Linux doesn't need this as we keep the SATA link powered up (which wastes power). The EC powers up the bay by itself when the ODD eject button is pressed, and the SATA PHY reports the hotplug. However, we could also power that SATA link down (and for that matter, also power down the Ultrabay) if the ODD is left idle for a while with no disk inside, and use event 0x3006 to know when we need that SATA link powered back up. For now, just stop asking for more information when event 0x3006 is seen, there is no point in pestering users about it anymore. Signed-off-by:

commit 2c08522e upstream. e->index overflows e->stamps[] every ip_pkt_list_tot packets. Consider the case when ip_pkt_list_tot==1; the first packet received is stored in e->stamps[0] and e->index is initialized to 1. The next received packet timestamp is then stored at e->stamps[1] in recent_entry_update(), a buffer overflow because the maximum e->stamps[] index is 0. Signed-off-by:

commit 7bfbae10 upstream. While ath9k does not support RIFS yet, the ability to receive RIFS frames is currently enabled for most chipsets in the initvals. This is causing baseband related issues on AR9160 and AR9130 based chipsets, which can lock up under certain conditions. This patch fixes these issues by overriding the initvals, effectively disabling RIFS for all affected chipsets. Signed-off-by:

commit 5c0ba62f upstream. When selecting the tx fallback rate, rc.c used a separate variable 'nrix' for storing the next rate index, however it did not use that as reference for further rate index lowering. Because of that, it ended up reusing the same rate for multiple multi-rate retry stages, thus decreasing delivery probability under changing link conditions. This patch removes the separate (unnecessary) variable and fixes fallback the way it was intended to work. This should result in increased throughput and better link stability. Signed-off-by:

commit d8728ee9 upstream. In AP mode, ath_beacon_config_ap only restarts the timer if a TSF restart is requested. Apparently this was added, because this function unconditionally sets the flag for TSF reset. The problem with this is, that ath9k_hw_reset() clobbers the timer registers (specified in the initvals), thus effectively disabling the SWBA interrupt whenever a card reset without TSF reset is issued (happens in a few places in the code). This patch fixes ath_beacon_config_ap to only issue the TSF reset flag when necessary, but reinitialize the timer unconditionally. Tests show, that this is enough to keep the SWBA interrupt going after a call to ath_reset() Signed-off-by:

commit bbcd18d1 upstream. The platform code doesn't have to provide platform data to get sensible default behaviour from the imx serial driver. This patch does not handle NULL dereference in the IrDA case, which still requires a valid platform data pointer (in imx_startup()/imx_shutdown()), since I don't know whether there is a sensible default behaviour, or should the operation just fail cleanly.

Alan Cox authored
commit 638b9648 upstream. This was noticed by Matthias Urlichs and he proposed a fix. This patch does the fixing a different way to avoid introducing several new race conditions into the code. The problem case is TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS = 0. In that case while we abort the ldisc change, the hangup processing has not cleaned up and restarted the ldisc either. We can't restart the ldisc stuff in the set_ldisc as we don't know what the hangup did and may touch stuff we shouldn't as we are no longer supposed to influence the tty at that point in case it has been re-opened before we get rescheduled. Instead do it the simple way. Always re-init the ldisc on the hangup, but use TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS to indicate that we should force N_TTY. Signed-off-by:

The problem is that kobject_add_internal() first adds a kobject to the kset and then try to create sysfs directory for it. If the creation fails, it remove the kobject from the kset. get_device_parent() accesses class_dirs kset while only holding class_dirs.list_lock to see whether the cuse class dir exists. But when it exists, it may not have finished initialization yet or may fail and get removed soon. In the above case, the former happened so the second one ends up trying to create subdirectory under NULL sysfs_dirent. Fix it by grabbing a mutex in get_device_parent(). Signed-off-by:

commit e555317c upstream. Don't touch the variable 'reg' to construct the value for the actual SPI transport. This variable is again used to access the driver's register cache, and so random memory is overwritten. Compute the value in-place instead. Signed-off-by:

commit 0708cc58 upstream. With PulseAudio and an application accessing an input device like `gnome-volume-manager` both have high CPU load as reported in [1]. Loading `snd-hda-intel` with `position_fix=1` fixes this issue. Therefore add a quirk for ASUS M2V-MX SE. The only downside is, when now exiting for example MPlayer when it is playing an audio file a high pitched sound is outputted by the speaker. $ lspci -vvnn | grep -A10 Audio 20:01.0 Audio device [0403]: VIA Technologies, Inc.
