IndexCard is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: drivers/char/applicom.c:418 ac_write() warn: potential spectre issue 'apbs' [r] drivers/char/applicom.c:728 ac_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'apbs' [r] (local cap) Fix this by sanitizing IndexCard before using it to index apbs. Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].

Commit '3d035f58 ("drivers/char/hpet.c: allow user controlled mmap for user processes")' introduced a new kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap, that is required to expose the memory map of the HPET registers to user-space. Unfortunately the kernel command line parameter 'hpet_mmap' is broken and never takes effect due to missing '=' character in the __setup() code of hpet_mmap_enable. Before this patch: dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=1 [ 0.204152] HPET mmap disabled dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=0 [ 0.204192] HPET mmap disabled After this patch: dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=1 [ 0.203945] HPET mmap enabled dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=0 [ 0.204652] HPET mmap disabled Fixes: 3d035f58 ("drivers/char/hpet.c: allow user controlled mmap for user processes") Signed-off-by:

Calling device_status callback under a lock would prevent drivers to do any slimbus trasactions which would invoke this lock like get_laddr(). Remove this unnecessary lock! Signed-off-by:

Adopt nvram module to reduce code duplication. This means CONFIG_NVRAM becomes available to PPC64 builds. Previously it was only available to PPC32 builds because it depended on CONFIG_GENERIC_NVRAM. The IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl as implemented on PPC64 validates the offset returned by pmac_get_partition(). Do the same in the nvram module. Note that the old PPC32 generic_nvram module lacked this test. So when CONFIG_PPC32 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl would have returned 0 (always). But when CONFIG_PPC64 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl would have returned -1 (which is -EPERM) when the requested partition was not found. With this patch, the result is now -EINVAL on both PPC32 and PPC64 when the requested PowerMac NVRAM partition is not found. This is a userspace- visible change, in the non-existent partition case, which would be in an error path for an IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl syscall. Tested-by:

This patch addresses inconsistencies in Mac framebuffer drivers and their use of Kconfig symbols relating to NVRAM, so PPC64 can use CONFIG_NVRAM. The defined(CONFIG_NVRAM) condition is replaced with the weaker IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_NVRAM) condition, like atari_scsi. Macintosh framebuffer drivers use default settings for color mode and video mode that are found in NVRAM. On PCI Macs, MacOS stores display settings in the Name Registry (NR) partition in NVRAM*. On NuBus Macs, there is no NR partition and MacOS stores display mode settings in PRAM**. Early-model Macs are the ones most likely to benefit from these settings, since they are more likely to have a fixed-frequency monitor connected to the built-in framebuffer device. Moreover, a single NV_CMODE value and a single NV_VMODE value provide for only one display. The NV_CMODE and NV_VMODE constants are apparently offsets into the NR partition for Old World machines. This also suggests that these defaults are not useful on later models. The NR partition seems to be optional on New World machines. CONFIG_NVRAM cannot be enabled on PPC64 at present. It is safe to say that NVRAM support in PowerMac fbdev drivers is only applicable to CONFIG_PPC32 so make this condition explicit. This means matroxfb driver won't crash on PPC64 when CONFIG_NVRAM becomes available there. For imsttfb, add the missing CONFIG_NVRAM test to prevent a build failure, since PPC64 does not implement nvram_read_byte(). Also add a missing machine_is(powermac) check. Change the inconsistent dependency on CONFIG_PPC and the matching #ifdef tests to CONFIG_PPC_PMAC. For valkyriefb, to improve clarity and consistency with the other PowerMac fbdev drivers, test for CONFIG_PPC_PMAC instead of !CONFIG_MAC. Remove a bogus comment regarding PRAM. * See GetPreferredConfiguration and SavePreferredConfiguration in "Designing PCI Cards and Drivers for Power Macintosh Computers". ** See SetDefaultMode and GetDefaultMode in "Designing Cards and Drivers for the Macintosh Family".

Add the nvram_size() function to those PowerPC platforms that don't already have one: CHRP and PowerMac. This means that the ppc_md.nvram_size() function can be called by nvram_get_size(). Since we are addressing CHRP inconsistencies here, rename chrp_nvram_read and chrp_nvram_write, which break the naming convention used across powerpc platforms for NVRAM accessor functions.

A multi-platform kernel binary has to decide at run-time how to dispatch the arch_nvram_ops calls. Add a platform-independent arch_nvram_ops struct for this, to replace the atari-specific one. Enable CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_NVRAM_OPS for Macs. Acked-by:

Refactor the RTC "CMOS" NVRAM functions so that they can be used as arch_nvram_ops methods. Checksumming logic is moved from the misc device operations to the nvram read/write operations. This makes the misc device implementation more generic. This preserves the locking mechanism such that "read if checksum valid" and "write and update checksum" remain atomic operations. Some platforms implement byte-range read/write methods which are similar to file_operations struct methods. Other platforms provide only byte-at-a-time methods. The former are more efficient but may be unavailable so fall back on the latter methods when necessary. Tested-by:

The drivers/char/nvram.c module has previously supported only RTC "CMOS" NVRAM, for which it provides appropriate checksum ioctls. Make these ioctls optional so the module can be re-used with other kinds of NVRAM. The ops struct methods that implement the ioctls now return error codes so that a multi-platform kernel binary can do the right thing when running on hardware without a suitable NVRAM. Signed-off-by:

NVRAMs on different platforms and architectures have different attributes and access methods. E.g. some platforms have byte-at-a-time accessor functions while others have byte-range accessor functions. Some have checksum functionality while others do not. By calling ops struct methods via the common wrapper functions, the nvram module and other drivers can make use of the available NVRAM functionality in a portable way. Signed-off-by:

Replace nvram_* functions with static functions in nvram.h. These will become wrappers for struct nvram_ops method calls. This patch effectively disables existing NVRAM functionality so as to allow the rest of the series to be bisected without build failures. That functionality is gradually re-implemented in subsequent patches. Replace the sole validate-checksum-and-read-byte sequence with a call to nvram_read() which will gain the same semantics in subsequent patches. Remove unused exports. Acked-by:

On powerpc, setting CONFIG_NVRAM=n builds a kernel with no NVRAM support. Setting CONFIG_NVRAM=m enables the /dev/nvram misc device module without enabling NVRAM support in drivers. Setting CONFIG_NVRAM=y enables the misc device (built-in) and also enables NVRAM support in drivers. m68k shares the valkyriefb driver with powerpc, and since that driver uses NVRAM, it is affected by CONFIG_ATARI_SCSI, because of the use of "select NVRAM". We can avoid the "select" here, but drivers still have to interpret the CONFIG_NVRAM symbol consistently regardless of platform. In this patch and the subsequent fbdev driver patch, the convention is adopted across all relevant platforms whereby NVRAM functionality gets enabled in a given device driver when the nvram misc device is built-in or when both drivers are modules.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; void *entry[]; }; instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
