      x86-64, compat: Retruncate rax after ia32 syscall entry tracing · eefdca04
      Roland McGrath authored
      In commit d4d67150, we reopened an old hole for a 64-bit ptracer touching a
      32-bit tracee in system call entry.  A %rax value set via ptrace at the
      entry tracing stop gets used whole as a 32-bit syscall number, while we
      only check the low 32 bits for validity.
      
      Fix it by truncating %rax back to 32 bits after syscall_trace_enter,
      in addition to testing the full 64 bits as has already been added.

      x86-64, compat: Test %rax for the syscall number, not %eax · 36d001c7
      H. Peter Anvin authored
      On 64 bits, we always, by necessity, jump through the system call
      table via %rax.  For 32-bit system calls, in theory the system call
      number is stored in %eax, and the code was testing %eax for a valid
      system call number.  At one point we loaded the stored value back from
      the stack to enforce zero-extension, but that was removed in checkin
      d4d67150.  An actual 32-bit process
      will not be able to introduce a non-zero-extended number, but it can
      happen via ptrace.
      
      Instead of re-introducing the zero-extension, test what we are
      actually going to use, i.e. %rax.  This only adds a handful of REX
      prefixes to the code.

      compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok() · c41d68a5
      H. Peter Anvin authored
      compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
      access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
      introduce problems on some architectures.
      
      This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
      compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
      The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
      arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
      implementation of the new global function.
      
      This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
      fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
      followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
      for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
      can also be removed.

      drm/radeon/kms: force legacy pll algo for RV620 LVDS · f90087ee
      Alex Deucher authored
      There has been periodic evidence that LVDS, on at least some
      panels, prefers the dividers selected by the legacy pll algo.
      This patch forces the use of the legacy pll algo on RV620
      LVDS panels.  The old behavior (new pll algo) can be selected
      by setting the new_pll module parameter to 1.

      drm: fix race between driver loading and userspace open. · b64c115e
      Dave Airlie authored
      Not 100% sure this is due to BKL removal, its most likely a combination
      of that + userspace timing changes in udev/plymouth. The drm adds the sysfs
      device before the driver has completed internal loading, this causes udev
      to make the node and plymouth to open it before we've completed loading.
      
      The proper solution is to delay the sysfs manipulation until later in loading
      however this causes knock on issues with sysfs connector nodes, so we can use
      the global mutex to serialise loading and userspace opens.

      drm: Use a nondestructive mode for output detect when polling (v2) · 930a9e28
      Chris Wilson authored
      v2: Julien Cristau pointed out that @nondestructive results in
      double-negatives and confusion when trying to interpret the parameter,
      so use @force instead. Much easier to type as well. ;-)
      
      And fix the miscompilation of vmgfx reported by Sedat Dilek.

      HID: fix hiddev's use of usb_find_interface · 8fe294ca
      Guillaume Chazarain authored
      My macbook infrared remote control was broken by commit
      bd25f4dd ("HID: hiddev: use
      usb_find_interface, get rid of BKL").
      
      This device appears in dmesg as:
      apple 0003:05AC:8242.0001: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device
      [Apple Computer, Inc. IR Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.2-1/input0
      
      It stopped working as lircd was getting ENODEV when opening /dev/usb/hiddev0.
      
      AFAICS hiddev_driver is a dummy driver so usb_find_interface(&hiddev_driver)
      does not find anything.
      
      The device is associated with the usbhid driver, so let's do
      usb_find_interface(&hid_driver) instead.
      
      $ ls -l /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.2/usb7/7-1/7-1:1.0/usb/hiddev0/device/driver
