commit 842d4529 upstream. Because of a typo, calling ioctl with DRM_IOCTL_I915_OVERLAY_PUT_IMAGE is broken if the macro is used directly. When using libdrm the bug is not hit, since libdrm handles the ioctl encoding internally. The typo also leads to the .cmd and .cmd_drv fields of the drm_ioctl structure for DRM_I915_OVERLAY_PUT_IMAGE having inconsistent content. Signed-off-by:

commit 302983e9 upstream. Consider a 1600x900 panel, upscaling a 1360x768 mode, full-aspect. The old math would give you: scaled_width = 1600 * 768; /* 1228800 */ scaled_height = 1360 * 900; /* 1224000 */ if (scaled_width > scaled_height) { /* pillarbox, and true */ width = 1224000 / 768; /* int(1593.75) = 1593 */ x = (1600 - 1593 + 1) / 2; /* 4 */ y = 0; height = 768; } /* ... */ This is broken. The total width of scanout would then be 1593 + 4 + 4, or 1601, which is wider than the panel itself. The hardware very dutifully implements this, and you end up with a black 45° diagonal from the top-left corner to the bottom edge of the screen. It's a cool effect and all, but not what you wanted. Similar things happen for the letterbox case. The problem is that you have an integer number of pixels, which means it's usually impossible to upscale equally on both axes. 1360/768 is 1.7708, 1600/900 is 1.7777. Since we're constrained on the one axis, the other one wants to come out as an even number of pixels (the panel is almost certainly even on both axes, and the x/y offsets will be applied on both sides). In the math above, if 'width' comes out even, rounding down is correct; if it's odd, you'd rather round up. So just increment width/height in those cases. Tested on a Lenovo T500 (Ironlake).

drm/radeon: Extended DDC Probing for Connectors with Improperly Wired DDC Lines (here: Asus M2A-VM HDMI) commit e384fab8 upstream. Some integrated ATI Radeon chipset implementations with add-on HDMI card (e. g. Asus M2A-VM HDMI) indicate the availability of a DDC even when the add-on card is not plugged in or HDMI is disabled in BIOS setup. In this case, drm_get_edid() and drm_edid_block_valid() periodically dump data and kernel errors into system log files and onto terminals. For these connectors DDC probing is extended by a check for a correct EDID header. Only in case a valid EDID header is also found, the (HDMI or DVI) connector will be used by the Radeon driver. This prevents the kernel driver from useless flooding of logs and terminal sessions with EDID dumps and error messages. This patch adds a flag 'requires_extended_probe' to the radeon_connector structure. In function radeon_connector_needs_extended_probe() this flag can be set on a chipset family/vendor/connector type specific basis. In addition, function radeon_ddc_probe() has been adapted to perform extended DDC probing if required by the connector's flag. Requires function drm_edid_header_is_valid() in DRM module provided by [PATCH] drm: Separate EDID Header Check from EDID Block Check.

commit c71d8ebe upstream. The sendmmsg() introduced by commit 228e548e "net: Add sendmmsg socket system call" is capable of sending to multiple different destination addresses. SMACK is using destination's address for checking sendmsg() permission. However, security_socket_sendmsg() is called for only once even if multiple different destination addresses are passed to sendmmsg(). Therefore, we need to call security_socket_sendmsg() for each destination address rather than only the first destination address. Since calling security_socket_sendmsg() every time when only single destination address was passed to sendmmsg() is a waste of time, omit calling security_socket_sendmsg() unless destination address of previous datagram and that of current datagram differs.

commit 98382f41 upstream. To limit the amount of time we can spend in sendmmsg, cap the number of elements to UIO_MAXIOV (currently 1024). For error handling an application using sendmmsg needs to retry at the first unsent message, so capping is simpler and requires less application logic than returning EINVAL. Signed-off-by:

commit 728ffb86 upstream. sendmmsg uses a similar error return strategy as recvmmsg but it turns out to be a confusing way to communicate errors. The current code stores the error code away and returns it on the next sendmmsg call. This means a call with completely valid arguments could get an error from a previous call. Change things so we only return an error if no datagrams could be sent. If less than the requested number of messages were sent, the application must retry starting at the first failed one and if the problem is persistent the error will be returned. This matches the behaviour of other syscalls like read/write - it is not an error if less than the requested number of elements are sent. Signed-off-by:

commit d4930086 upstream. We receive many bug reports about system hang during suspend/resume when ath9k driver is in use. Adrian Chadd remarked that this problem happens on systems that have ASPM disabled. To do not hit the bug, skip doing ->config_pci_powersave magic if PCIe downstream port device, which ath9k device is connected to, has ASPM disabled. Bug was introduced by: commit 53bc7aa0 Author: Vivek Natarajan <vnatarajan@atheros.com> Date: Mon Apr 5 14:48:04 2010 +0530 ath9k: Add support for newer AR9285 chipsets.

commit b6b67df3 upstream. This driver uses information from the self member of the pci_bus struct to get information regarding the bridge to which the PCIe device is attached. Unfortunately, this member is not established on all architectures, which leads to a kernel oops. Skipping the entire block that uses the self member to determine the bridge vendor will only affect RTL8192DE devices as that driver sets the ASPM support flag differently when the bridge vendor is Intel. If the self member is available, there is no functional change. This patch fixes Bugzilla No. 40212. Reported-by:

commit 9ea71503 upstream. commit 7485d0d3 (futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()) in 2.6.33 fixed two problems: First, It prevented a loop when encountering a ZERO_PAGE. Second, it fixed RW MAP_PRIVATE futex operations by forcing the COW to occur by unconditionally performing a write access get_user_pages_fast() to get the page. The commit also introduced a user-mode regression in that it broke futex operations on read-only memory maps. For example, this breaks workloads that have one or more reader processes doing a FUTEX_WAIT on a futex within a read only shared file mapping, and a writer processes that has a writable mapping issuing the FUTEX_WAKE. This fixes the regression for valid futex operations on RO mappings by trying a RO get_user_pages_fast() when the RW get_user_pages_fast() fails. This change makes it necessary to also check for invalid use cases, such as anonymous RO mappings (which can never change) and the ZERO_PAGE which the commit referenced above was written to address. This patch does restore the original behavior with RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings, which have inherent user-mode usage problems and don't really make sense. With this patch performing a FUTEX_WAIT within a RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be successfully woken provided another process updates the region of the underlying mapped file. However, the mmap() man page states that for a MAP_PRIVATE mapping: It is unspecified whether changes made to the file after the mmap() call are visible in the mapped region. So user-mode users attempting to use futex operations on RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are depending on unspecified behavior. Additionally a RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping could fail to wake up in the following case. Thread-A: call futex(FUTEX_WAIT, memory-region-A). get_futex_key() return inode based key. sleep on the key Thread-B: call mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, memory-region-A) Thread-B: write memory-region-A. COW happen. This process's memory-region-A become related to new COWed private (ie PageAnon=1) page. Thread-B: call futex(FUETX_WAKE, memory-region-A). get_futex_key() return mm based key. IOW, we fail to wake up Thread-A. Once again doing something like this is just silly and users who do something like this get what they deserve. While RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are nonsensical, checking for a private mapping requires walking the vmas and was deemed too costly to avoid a userspace hang. This Patch is based on Peter Zijlstra's initial patch with modifications to only allow RO mappings for futex operations that need VERIFY_READ access. Reported-by:

commit bb91bc7b upstream. For normal kernel pages, CPU cache is synchronized by the dma layer. However, this is not done for pages allocated with vmalloc. If we do I/O to/from vmallocated pages, we must synchronize CPU cache explicitly. Prior to doing I/O on vmallocated page we must call flush_kernel_vmap_range to flush dirty cache on the virtual address. After finished read we must call invalidate_kernel_vmap_range to invalidate cache on the virtual address, so that accesses to the virtual address return newly read data and not stale data from CPU cache. This patch fixes metadata corruption on dm-snapshots on PA-RISC and possibly other architectures with caches indexed by virtual address. Signed-off-by:

commit c027a474 upstream. exit_mm() sets ->mm == NULL then it does mmput()->exit_mmap() which frees the memory. However select_bad_process() checks ->mm != NULL before TIF_MEMDIE, so it continues to kill other tasks even if we have the oom-killed task freeing its memory. Change select_bad_process() to check ->mm after TIF_MEMDIE, but skip the tasks which have already passed exit_notify() to ensure a zombie with TIF_MEMDIE set can't block oom-killer. Alternatively we could probably clear TIF_MEMDIE after exit_mmap(). Signed-off-by:

commit 25e75dff upstream. AppArmor is masking the capabilities returned by capget against the capabilities mask in the profile. This is wrong, in complain mode the profile has effectively all capabilities, as the profile restrictions are not being enforced, merely tested against to determine if an access is known by the profile. This can result in the wrong behavior of security conscience applications like sshd which examine their capability set, and change their behavior accordingly. In this case because of the masked capability set being returned sshd fails due to DAC checks, even when the profile is in complain mode. Kernels affected: 2.6.36 - 3.0. Signed-off-by:

This will cause crashes, because wake_up_sem_queue_do() will read from a stale pointer. The fix is simple: Regardless of anything, always call get_queue_result(). This function waits until wake_up_sem_queue_do() has finished it's task. Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27142Reported-by:

commit 8c2381af upstream. Currently, the hvc_console_print() function drops console output if the hvc backend's put_chars() returns 0. This patch changes this behavior to allow a retry through returning -EAGAIN. This change also affects the hvc_push() function. Both functions are changed to handle -EAGAIN and to retry the put_chars() operation. If a hvc backend returns -EAGAIN, the retry handling differs: - hvc_console_print() spins to write the complete console output. - hvc_push() behaves the same way as for returning 0. Now hvc backends can indirectly control the way how console output is handled through the hvc console layer. Signed-off-by:

commit 51d33021 upstream. Return -EAGAIN when we get H_BUSY back from the hypervisor. This makes the hvc console driver retry, avoiding dropped printks. Signed-off-by:
