      ext4: fix NULL pointer dereference when journal restart fails · a616aba8
      Lukas Czerner authored
      commit 9d506594 upstream.
      
      Currently when journal restart fails, we'll have the h_transaction of
      the handle set to NULL to indicate that the handle has been effectively
      aborted. We handle this situation quietly in the jbd2_journal_stop() and just
      free the handle and exit because everything else has been done before we
      attempted (and failed) to restart the journal.
      
      Unfortunately there are a number of problems with that approach
      introduced with commit
      
      41a5b913 "jbd2: invalidate handle if jbd2_journal_restart()
      fails"
      
      First of all in ext4 jbd2_journal_stop() will be called through
      __ext4_journal_stop() where we would try to get a hold of the superblock
      by dereferencing h_transaction which in this case would lead to NULL
      pointer dereference and crash.
      
      In addition we're going to free the handle regardless of the refcount
      which is bad as well, because others up the call chain will still
      reference the handle so we might potentially reference already freed
      memory.
      
      Moreover it's expected that we'll get aborted handle as well as detached
      handle in some of the journalling function as the error propagates up
      the stack, so it's unnecessary to call WARN_ON every time we get
      detached handle.
      
      And finally we might leak some memory by forgetting to free reserved
      handle in jbd2_journal_stop() in the case where handle was detached from
      the transaction (h_transaction is NULL).
      
      Fix the NULL pointer dereference in __ext4_journal_stop() by just
      calling jbd2_journal_stop() quietly as suggested by Jan Kara. Also fix
      the potential memory leak in jbd2_journal_stop() and use proper
      handle refcounting before we attempt to free it to avoid use-after-free
      issues.
      
      And finally remove all WARN_ON(!transaction) from the code so that we do
      not get random traces when something goes wrong because when journal
      restart fails we will get to some of those functions.

      firmware: dmi_scan: Fix ordering of product_uuid · 35562f8a
      Jean Delvare authored
      commit 5c1ac56b upstream.
      
      In function dmi_present(), dmi_walk_early() calls dmi_table(), which
      calls dmi_decode(), which ultimately calls dmi_save_uuid(). This last
      function makes a decision based on the value of global variable
      dmi_ver. The problem is that this variable is set right _after_
      dmi_walk_early() returns. So dmi_save_uuid() always sees dmi_ver == 0
      regardless of the actual version implemented.
      
      This causes /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid to always use the old
      ordering even on systems implementing DMI/SMBIOS 2.6 or later, which
      should use the new ordering.
      
      This is broken since kernel v3.8 for legacy DMI implementations and
      since kernel v3.10 for SMBIOS 2 implementations. SMBIOS 3
      implementations with the 64-bit entry point are not affected.
      
      The first breakage does not matter much as in practice legacy DMI
      implementations are always for versions older than 2.6, which is when
      the UUID ordering changed. The second breakage is more problematic as
      it affects the vast majority of x86 systems manufactured since 2009.

      xhci: Solve full event ring by increasing TRBS_PER_SEGMENT to 256 · cc5da96d
      Mathias Nyman authored
      commit 18cc2f4c upstream.
      
      Our event ring consists of only one segment, and we risk filling
      the event ring in case we get isoc transfers with short intervals
      such as webcams that fill a TD every microframe (125us)
      
      With 64 TRB segment size one usb camera could fill the event ring in 8ms.
      A setup with several cameras and other devices can fill up the
      event ring as it is shared between all devices.
      This has occurred when uvcvideo queues 5 * 32TD URBs which then
      get cancelled when the video mode changes. The cancelled URBs are returned
      in the xhci interrupt context and blocks the interrupt handler from
      handling the new events.
      
      A full event ring will block xhci from scheduling traffic and affect all
      devices conneted to the xhci, will see errors such as Missed Service
      Intervals for isoc devices, and  and Split transaction errors for LS/FS
      interrupt devices.
      
      Increasing the TRB_PER_SEGMENT will also increase the default endpoint ring
      size, which is welcome as for most isoc transfer we had to dynamically
      expand the endpoint ring anyway to be able to queue the 5 * 32TDs uvcvideo
      queues.
      
      The default size used to be 64 TRBs per segment

      xhci: fix isoc endpoint dequeue from advancing too far on transaction error · c7d668d4
      Mathias Nyman authored
      commit d104d015 upstream.
      
      Isoc TDs usually consist of one TRB, sometimes two. When all goes well we
      receive only one success event for a TD, and move the dequeue pointer to
      the next TD.
      
      This fails if the TD consists of two TRBs and we get a transfer error
      on the first TRB, we will then see two events for that TD.
      
      Fix this by making sure the event we get is for the last TRB in that TD
      before moving the dequeue pointer to the next TD. This will resolve some
      of the uvc and dvb issues with the
      "ERROR Transfer event TRB DMA ptr not part of current TD" error message

      md/raid5: don't record new size if resize_stripes fails. · ba7b6c30
      NeilBrown authored
      commit 6e9eac2d upstream.
      
      If any memory allocation in resize_stripes fails we will return
      -ENOMEM, but in some cases we update conf->pool_size anyway.
      
      This means that if we try again, the allocations will be assumed
      to be larger than they are, and badness results.
      
      So only update pool_size if there is no error.
      
      This bug was introduced in 2.6.17 and the patch is suitable for
      -stable.

      ACPI / init: Fix the ordering of acpi_reserve_resources() · 8a1a6cb6
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      commit b9a5e5e1 upstream.
      
      Since acpi_reserve_resources() is defined as a device_initcall(),
      there's no guarantee that it will be executed in the right order
      with respect to the rest of the ACPI initialization code.  On some
      systems this leads to breakage if, for example, the address range
      that should be reserved for the ACPI fixed registers is given to
      the PCI host bridge instead if the race is won by the wrong code
      path.
      
      Fix this by turning acpi_reserve_resources() into a void function
      and calling it directly from within the ACPI initialization sequence.

      In an environment where the KDC is running Active Directory, the

      USB: visor: Match I330 phone more precisely · 7f87f4dd
      Jason A. Donenfeld authored
      commit 82ee3aeb upstream.
      
      Samsung has just released a portable USB3 SSD, coming in a very small
      and nice form factor. It's USB ID is 04e8:8001, which unfortunately is
      already used by the Palm Visor driver for the Samsung I330 phone cradle.
      Having pl2303 or visor pick up this device ID results in conflicts with
      the usb-storage driver, which handles the newly released portable USB3
      SSD.
      
      To work around this conflict, I've dug up a mailing list post [1] from a
      long time ago, in which a user posts the full USB descriptor
      information. The most specific value in this appears to be the interface
      class, which has value 255 (0xff). Since usb-storage requires an
      interface class of 0x8, I believe it's correct to disambiguate the two
      devices by matching on 0xff inside visor.

      Most of kernel code assume that interface array in
      struct usb_configuration is NULL terminated.
      
      When gadget is composed with configfs configuration
      structure may be reused for different functions set.
      
      This bug happens because purge_configs_funcs() sets
      only next_interface_id to 0. Interface array still
      contains pointers to already freed interfaces. If in
      second try we add less interfaces than earlier we
      may access unallocated memory when trying to get
      interface descriptors.

      libata: Ignore spurious PHY event on LPM policy change · 69e69d5f
      Gabriele Mazzotta authored
      commit 09c5b480 upstream.
      
      When the LPM policy is set to ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER, the device might
      generate a spurious PHY event that cuases errors on the link.
      Ignore this event if it occured within 10s after the policy change.
      
      The timeout was chosen observing that on a Dell XPS13 9333 these
      spurious events can occur up to roughly 6s after the policy change.

      libata: Add helper to determine when PHY events should be ignored · 93c93ff4
      Gabriele Mazzotta authored
      commit 8393b811 upstream.
      
      This is a preparation commit that will allow to add other criteria
      according to which PHY events should be dropped.

      thermal: step_wise: Revert optimization · f304cd83
      Jean Delvare authored
      Commit 178c2490 ("thermal: step_wise:
      cdev only needs update on a new target state") broke driver acerhdf.
      That driver abused the step_wise thermal governor until the bang_bang
      governor was available, and the optimization broke this usage model.
      
      Kernels v3.12 to v3.18 are affected. In v3.19 the acerhdf driver was
      switched to the bang_bang governor and that solved the problem.
      
      For kernels v3.12 to v3.17, the bang_bang governor isn't available
      yet so the easiest fix is to revert the optimization.
