commit 2cd3949f upstream. We have some very similarly named command-line options: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsave", x86_xsave_setup); arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsaveopt", x86_xsaveopt_setup); arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:__setup("noxsaves", x86_xsaves_setup); __setup() is designed to match options that take arguments, like "foo=bar" where you would have: __setup("foo", x86_foo_func...); The problem is that "noxsave" actually _matches_ "noxsaves" in the same way that "foo" matches "foo=bar". If you boot an old kernel that does not know about "noxsaves" with "noxsaves" on the command line, it will interpret the argument as "noxsave", which is not what you want at all. This makes the "noxsave" handler only return success when it finds an *exact* match. [ tglx: We really need to make __setup() more robust. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 00b4d9a1 upstream. On some 32 bits architectures, including x86, GENMASK(31, 0) returns 0 instead of the expected ~0UL. This is the same on some 64 bits architectures with GENMASK_ULL(63, 0). This is due to an overflow in the shift operand, 1 << 32 for GENMASK, 1 << 64 for GENMASK_ULL. Reported-by:

commit 6e84a8d7 upstream. This patch adds a USB control message delay quirk for a few specific Marantz/Denon devices. Without the delay the DACs will not work properly and produces the following type of messages: Nov 15 10:09:21 orwell kernel: [ 91.342880] usb 3-13: clock source 41 is not valid, cannot use Nov 15 10:09:21 orwell kernel: [ 91.343775] usb 3-13: clock source 41 is not valid, cannot use There are likely other Marantz/Denon devices using the same USB module which exhibit the same problems. But as this cannot be verified I limited the patch to the devices I could test. The following two devices are covered by this path: - Marantz SA-14S1 - Marantz HD-DAC1 Signed-off-by:

commit c251ea7b upstream. On a mx28evk with a sgtl5000 codec we notice a loud 'click' sound to happen 5 seconds after the end of a playback. The SMALL_POP bit should fix this, but its definition is incorrect: according to the sgtl5000 manual it is bit 0 of CHIP_REF_CTRL register, not bit 1. Fix the definition accordingly and enable the bit as intended per the code comment. After applying this change, no loud 'click' sound is heard after playback Signed-off-by:

commit 2cb1e025 upstream. In commit a1253ef6 ("ASoC: cs42l51: split i2c from codec driver"), the I2C part of the CS42L51 was moved to a separate file, but the definition of the of_device_id array was left in the driver file itself, no longer connected to the platform_driver structure using the .of_match_table pointer. This commit exports the of_device_id array in cs42l51, and uses it as .of_match_able in cs42l51-i2c.c. This solution was suggested by Brian Austin.

But, when a chip reset is done, processing the initvals sets the register back to the default value. Fix this by moving the code in ath9k_hw_init_pll() to ar9003_hw_override_ini().

commit cfd9167a upstream. RT2800 and newer hardware require padding between header and payload if header length is not multiple of 4. For historical reasons we also align payload to to 4 bytes boundary, but such alignment is not needed on modern H/W. Patch fixes skb_under_panic problems reported from time to time: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84911 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72471 http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=139108549530402&w=2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1087591 Panic happened because we eat 4 bytes of skb headroom on each (re)transmission when sending frame without the payload and the header length not being multiple of 4 (i.e. QoS header has 26 bytes). On such case because paylad_aling=2 is bigger than header_align=0 we increase header_align by 4 bytes. To prevent that we could change the check to: if (payload_length && payload_align > header_align) header_align += 4; but not aligning payload at all is more effective and alignment is not really needed by H/W (that has been tested on OpenWrt project for few years now).

commit ea9d0d77 upstream. DPCM can update the FE/BE connection states totally asynchronously from the FE's PCM state. Most of FE/BE state changes are protected by mutex, so that they won't race, but there are still some actions that are uncovered. For example, suppose to switch a BE while a FE's stream is running. This would call soc_dpcm_runtime_update(), which sets FE's runtime_update flag, then sets up and starts BEs, and clears FE's runtime_update flag again. When a device emits XRUN during this operation, the PCM core triggers snd_pcm_stop(XRUN). Since the trigger action is an atomic ops, this isn't blocked by the mutex, thus it kicks off DPCM's trigger action. It eventually updates and clears FE's runtime_update flag while soc_dpcm_runtime_update() is running concurrently, and it results in confusion. Usually, for avoiding such a race, we take a lock. There is a PCM stream lock for that purpose. However, as already mentioned, the trigger action is atomic, and we can't take the lock for the whole soc_dpcm_runtime_update() or other operations that include the lengthy jobs like hw_params or prepare. This patch provides an alternative solution. This adds a way to defer the conflicting trigger callback to be executed at the end of FE/BE state changes. For doing it, two things are introduced: - Each runtime_update state change of FEs is protected via PCM stream lock. - The FE's trigger callback checks the runtime_update flag. If it's not set, the trigger action is executed there. If set, mark the pending trigger action and returns immediately. - At the exit of runtime_update state change, it checks whether the pending trigger is present. If yes, it executes the trigger action at this point. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit ab8edab1 upstream. This patch addresses a bug where individual vhost-scsi configfs endpoint groups can be removed from below while active exports to QEMU userspace still exist, resulting in an OOPs. It adds a configfs_depend_item() in vhost_scsi_set_endpoint() to obtain an explicit dependency on se_tpg->tpg_group in order to prevent individual vhost-scsi WWPN endpoints from being released via normal configfs methods while an QEMU ioctl reference still exists. Also, add matching configfs_undepend_item() in vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint() to release the dependency, once QEMU's reference to the individual group at /sys/kernel/config/target/vhost/$WWPN/$TPGT is released.

commit 01462405 upstream. This fixes an old regression introduced by commit b0d0d915 (ipx: remove the BKL). When a recvmsg syscall blocks waiting for new data, no data can be sent on the same socket with sendmsg because ipx_recvmsg() sleeps with the socket locked. This breaks mars-nwe (NetWare emulator): - the ncpserv process reads the request using recvmsg - ncpserv forks and spawns nwconn - ncpserv calls a (blocking) recvmsg and waits for new requests - nwconn deadlocks in sendmsg on the same socket Commit b0d0d915 has simply replaced BKL locking with lock_sock/release_sock. Unlike now, BKL got unlocked while sleeping, so a blocking recvmsg did not block a concurrent sendmsg. Only keep the socket locked while actually working with the socket data and release it prior to calling skb_recv_datagram(). Signed-off-by:

commit b8e4500f upstream. Since commit 6fde8f03 ("bonding: fix locking in bond_loadbalance_arp_mon()") we can have a stale bond carrier state and stale curr_active_slave when using arp monitoring in loadbalance modes. The reason is that in bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() we can't have do_failover == true but slave_state_changed == false, whenever do_failover is true then slave_state_changed is also true. Then the following piece from bond_loadbalance_arp_mon(): if (slave_state_changed) { bond_slave_state_change(bond); if (BOND_MODE(bond) == BOND_MODE_XOR) bond_update_slave_arr(bond, NULL); } else if (do_failover) { block_netpoll_tx(); bond_select_active_slave(bond); unblock_netpoll_tx(); } will execute only the first branch, always and regardless of do_failover. Since these two events aren't related in such way, we need to decouple and consider them separately. For example this issue could lead to the following result: Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin) *MII Status: down* MII Polling Interval (ms): 0 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 ARP Polling Interval (ms): 100 ARP IP target/s (n.n.n.n form): 192.168.9.2 Slave Interface: ens12 *MII Status: up* Speed: 10000 Mbps Duplex: full Link Failure Count: 2 Permanent HW addr: 00:0f:53:01:42:2c Slave queue ID: 0 Slave Interface: eth1 *MII Status: up* Speed: Unknown Duplex: Unknown Link Failure Count: 70 Permanent HW addr: 52:54:00:2f:0f:8e Slave queue ID: 0 Since some interfaces are up, then the status of the bond should also be up, but it will never change unless something invokes bond_set_carrier() (i.e. enslave, bond_select_active_slave etc). Now, if I force the calling of bond_select_active_slave via for example changing primary_reselect (it can change in any mode), then the MII status goes to "up" because it calls bond_select_active_slave() which should've been done from bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() itself.

In the new value has not been handled properly. $ strace ./a.out open("/proc/sys/kernel/auto_msgmni", O_WRONLY) = 3 write(3, "0\n\0", 3) = 2 close(3) = 0 exit_group(0) $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace $strace ./a.out open("/proc/sys/kernel/auto_msgmni", O_WRONLY) = 3 write(3, "0\n", 2) = 2 close(3) = 0 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace a.out-697 [000] .... 3280.998235: unregister_ipcns_notifier <-proc_ipcauto_dointvec_minmax Fixes: 9eefe520 ("ipc: do not use a negative value to re-enable msgmni automatic recomputin") Signed-off-by:

commit a8ead0ec upstream. The 5th NAND partition should be named "NAND.u-boot-spl-os" instead of "NAND.u-boot-spl". This is to be consistent with other TI boards as well as u-boot. Fixes: 91994fac ("ARM: dts: am335x-evm: NAND: update MTD partition table") Signed-off-by:

commit 81f49a8f upstream. is_compat_task() is the wrong check for audit arch; the check should be is_ia32_task(): x32 syscalls should be AUDIT_ARCH_X86_64, not AUDIT_ARCH_I386. CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is currently incompatible with x32, so this has no visible effect. Signed-off-by:

commit 2aa792e6 upstream. The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function checks for three conditions before waking up grace period kthreads: * Is the thread we are trying to wake up the current thread? * Are the gp_flags zero? (all threads wait on non-zero gp_flags condition) * Is there no thread created for this flavour, hence nothing to wake up? If any one of these condition is true, we do not call wake_up(). It was found that there are quite a few avoidable wake ups both during idle time and under stress induced by rcutorture. Idle: Total:66000, unnecessary:66000, case1:61827, case2:66000, case3:0 Total:68000, unnecessary:68000, case1:63696, case2:68000, case3:0 rcutorture: Total:254000, unnecessary:254000, case1:199913, case2:254000, case3:0 Total:256000, unnecessary:256000, case1:201784, case2:256000, case3:0 Here case{1-3} are the cases listed above. We can avoid these wake ups by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() to conditionally wake up the grace period kthreads. There is a comment about an implied barrier supplied by the wake_up() logic. This barrier is necessary for the awakened thread to see the updated ->gp_flags. This flag is always being updated with the root node lock held. Also, the awakened thread tries to acquire the root node lock before reading ->gp_flags because of which there is proper ordering. Hence this commit tries to avoid calling wake_up() whenever we can by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function. Signed-off-by:

commit e10038a8 upstream. This structure is not exposed to userspace, so fix this by defining struct sk_filter; so we skip the casting in kernelspace. This is safe since userspace has no way to lurk with that internal pointer. Fixes: e6f30c73 ("netfilter: x_tables: add xt_bpf match") Signed-off-by:
