      ath5k: fix spontaneus AR5312 freezes · 868fd3d3
      Sergey Ryazanov authored 
      commit 8bfae4f9 upstream.

Sometimes while CPU have some load and ath5k doing the wireless
interface reset the whole WiSoC completely freezes. Set of tests shows
that using atomic delay function while we wait interface reset helps to
avoid such freezes.

The easiest way to reproduce this issue: create a station interface,
start continous scan with wpa_supplicant and load CPU by something. Or
just create multiple station interfaces and put them all in continous
scan.

This patch partially reverts the commit 1846ac3d ("ath5k: Use
usleep_range where possible"), which replaces initial udelay()
by usleep_range().

I do not know actual source of this issue, but all looks like that HW
freeze is caused by transaction on internal SoC bus, while wireless
block is in reset state.

Also I should note that I do not know how many chips are affected, but I
did not see this issue with chips, other than AR5312.

      ACPI / video: Load the module even if ACPI is disabled · 8686fc3d
      Chris Wilson authored 
      commit 6e17cb12 upstream.

i915.ko depends upon the acpi/video.ko module and so refuses to load if
ACPI is disabled at runtime if for example the BIOS is broken beyond
repair. acpi/video provides an optional service for i915.ko and so we
should just allow the modules to load, but do no nothing in order to let
the machines boot correctly.

      Drivers: hv: vmbus: incorrect device name is printed when child device is unregistered · a370f956
      Fernando Soto authored 
      commit 84672369 upstream.

Whenever a device is unregistered in vmbus_device_unregister (drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.c), the device name in the log message may contain garbage as the memory has already been freed by the time pr_info is called. Log example:
 [ 3149.170475] hv_vmbus: child device àõsèè0_5 unregistered

By logging the message just before calling device_unregister, the correct device name is printed:
[ 3145.034652] hv_vmbus: child device vmbus_0_5 unregistered

Also changing register & unregister messages to debug to avoid unnecessarily cluttering the kernel log.

      HID: fixup the conflicting keyboard mappings quirk · 0ec88c96
      Jiri Kosina authored 
      commit 8e7b3410 upstream.

The ignore check that got added in 6ce901eb ("HID: input: fix confusion
on conflicting mappings") needs to properly check for VARIABLE reports
as well (ARRAY reports should be ignored), otherwise legitimate keyboards
might break.

      HID: input: fix confusion on conflicting mappings · 3e886ecb
      David Herrmann authored 
      commit 6ce901eb upstream.

On an PC-101/103/104 keyboard (American layout) the 'Enter' key and its
neighbours look like this:

           +---+ +---+ +-------+
           | 1 | | 2 | |   5   |
           +---+ +---+ +-------+
             +---+ +-----------+
             | 3 | |     4     |
             +---+ +-----------+

On a PC-102/105 keyboard (European layout) it looks like this:

           +---+ +---+ +-------+
           | 1 | | 2 | |       |
           +---+ +---+ +-+  4  |
             +---+ +---+ |     |
             | 3 | | 5 | |     |
             +---+ +---+ +-----+

(Note that the number of keys is the same, but key '5' is moved down and
 the shape of key '4' is changed. Keys '1' to '3' are exactly the same.)

The keys 1-4 report the same scan-code in HID in both layouts, even though
the keysym they produce is usually different depending on the XKB-keymap
used by user-space.
However, key '5' (US 'backslash'/'pipe') reports 0x31 for the upper layout
and 0x32 for the lower layout, as defined by the HID spec. This is highly
confusing as the linux-input API uses a single keycode for both.

So far, this was never a problem as there never has been a keyboard with
both of those keys present at the same time. It would have to look
something like this:

           +---+ +---+ +-------+
           | 1 | | 2 | |  x31  |
           +---+ +---+ +-------+
             +---+ +---+ +-----+
             | 3 | |x32| |  4  |
             +---+ +---+ +-----+

HID can represent such a keyboard, but the linux-input API cannot.
Furthermore, any user-space mapping would be confused by this and,
luckily, no-one ever produced such hardware.

Now, the HID input layer fixed this mess by mapping both 0x31 and 0x32 to
the same keycode (KEY_BACKSLASH==0x2b). As only one of both physical keys
is present on a hardware, this works just fine.

Lets introduce hardware-vendors into this:
------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, it seems way to expensive to produce a different device for
American and European layouts. Therefore, hardware-vendors put both keys,
(0x31 and 0x32) on the same keyboard, but only one of them is hooked up
to the physical button, the other one is 'dead'.
This means, they can use the same hardware, with a different button-layout
and automatically produce the correct HID events for American *and*
European layouts. This is unproblematic for normal keyboards, as the
'dead' key will never report any KEY-DOWN events. But RollOver keyboards
send the whole matrix on each key-event, allowing n-key roll-over mode.
This means, we get a 0x31 and 0x32 event on each key-press. One of them
will always be 0, the other reports the real state. As we map both to the
same keycode, we will get spurious key-events, even though the real
key-state never changed.

The easiest way would be to blacklist 'dead' keys and never handle those.
We could simply read the 'country' tag of USB devices and blacklist either
key according to the layout. But... hardware vendors... want the same
device for all countries and thus many of them set 'country' to 0 for all
devices. Meh..

So we have to deal with this properly. As we cannot know which of the keys
is 'dead', we either need a heuristic and track those keys, or we simply
make use of our value-tracking for HID fields. We simply ignore HID events
for absolute data if the data didn't change. As HID tracks events on the
HID level, we haven't done the keycode translation, yet. Therefore, the
'dead' key is tracked independently of the real key, therefore, any events
on it will be ignored.

This patch simply discards any HID events for absolute data if it didn't
change compared to the last report. We need to ignore relative and
buffered-byte reports for obvious reasons. But those cannot be affected by
this bug, so we're fine.

Preferably, we'd do this filtering on the HID-core level. But this might
break a lot of custom drivers, if they do not follow the HID specs.
Therefore, we do this late in hid-input just before we inject it into the
input layer (which does the exact same filtering, but on the keycode
level).

If this turns out to break some devices, we might have to limit filtering
to EV_KEY events. But lets try to do the Right Thing first, and properly
filter any absolute data that didn't change.

This patch is tagged for 'stable' as it fixes a lot of n-key RollOver
hardware. We might wanna wait with backporting for a while, before we know
it doesn't break anything else, though.

      staging: comedi: cb_pcidas64: fix incorrect AI range code handling · 52857af3
      Ian Abbott authored 
      commit be8e8908 upstream.

The hardware range code values and list of valid ranges for the AI
subdevice is incorrect for several supported boards.  The hardware range
code values for all boards except PCI-DAS4020/12 is determined by
calling `ai_range_bits_6xxx()` based on the maximum voltage of the range
and whether it is bipolar or unipolar, however it only returns the
correct hardware range code for the PCI-DAS60xx boards.  For
PCI-DAS6402/16 (and /12) it returns the wrong code for the unipolar
ranges.  For PCI-DAS64/Mx/16 it returns the wrong code for all the
ranges and the comedi range table is incorrect.

Change `ai_range_bits_6xxx()` to use a look-up table pointed to by new
member `ai_range_codes` of `struct pcidas64_board` to map the comedi
range table indices to the hardware range codes.  Use a new comedi range
table for the PCI-DAS64/Mx/16 boards (and the commented out variants).

      dm snapshot: fix a possible invalid memory access on unload · 840732fd
      Mikulas Patocka authored 
      commit 22aa66a3 upstream.

When the snapshot target is unloaded, snapshot_dtr() waits until
pending_exceptions_count drops to zero.  Then, it destroys the snapshot.
Therefore, the function that decrements pending_exceptions_count
should not touch the snapshot structure after the decrement.

pending_complete() calls free_pending_exception(), which decrements
pending_exceptions_count, and then it performs up_write(&s->lock) and it
calls retry_origin_bios() which dereferences  s->origin.  These two
memory accesses to the fields of the snapshot may touch the dm_snapshot
struture after it is freed.

This patch moves the call to free_pending_exception() to the end of
pending_complete(), so that the snapshot will not be destroyed while
pending_complete() is in progress.

      dm: fix a race condition in dm_get_md · 6bed72e4
      Mikulas Patocka authored 
      commit 2bec1f4a upstream.

The function dm_get_md finds a device mapper device with a given dev_t,
increases the reference count and returns the pointer.

dm_get_md calls dm_find_md, dm_find_md takes _minor_lock, finds the
device, tests that the device doesn't have DMF_DELETING or DMF_FREEING
flag, drops _minor_lock and returns pointer to the device. dm_get_md then
calls dm_get. dm_get calls BUG if the device has the DMF_FREEING flag,
otherwise it increments the reference count.

There is a possible race condition - after dm_find_md exits and before
dm_get is called, there are no locks held, so the device may disappear or
DMF_FREEING flag may be set, which results in BUG.

To fix this bug, we need to call dm_get while we hold _minor_lock. This
patch renames dm_find_md to dm_get_md and changes it so that it calls
dm_get while holding the lock.
