commit 45202866 upstream. The asyncronous firmware load uses a completion struct to hold firmware processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is. however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown. As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops. Signed-off-by:

commit 0673effd upstream. The asyncronous firmware load uses a completion struct to hold firmware processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is. however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown. As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops. To be able to access the completion structure at teardown, it had to be moved into the b43_wldev structure. This patch also fixes a typo in a comment. Signed-off-by:

commit 09164043 upstream. In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67561, a locking dependency is reported when b43 is used with hostapd, and rfkill is used to kill the radio output. The lockdep splat (in part) is as follows: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.12.0 #1 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- rfkill/10040 is trying to acquire lock: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146f282>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20 but task is already holding lock: (rfkill_global_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa04832ca>] rfkill_fop_write+0x6a/0x170 [rfkill] --snip-- Chain exists of: rtnl_mutex --> misc_mtx --> rfkill_global_mutex The fix is to move the initialization of the hardware random number generator outside the code range covered by the rtnl_mutex.

commit b9a758a8 upstream. The initial USB driver did not use some register save locations in the private data storage.

commit feffe09f upstream. According to Freescale imx28 Errata, "ENGR119653 USB: ARM to USB register error issue", All USB register write operations must use the ARM SWP instruction. So, we implement a special ehci_write for imx28. Discussion for it at below: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=137996395529294&w=2 Without this patcheset, imx28 works unstable at high AHB bus loading. If the bus loading is not high, the imx28 usb can work well at the most of time. There is a IC errata for this problem, usually, we consider IC errata is a problem not a new feature, and this workaround is needed for that, so we need to add them to stable tree 3.11+.

commit 543d7784 upstream. There is a race in the hub driver between hub_disconnect() and recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED(). This race can be triggered if the driver is unbound from a device at the same time as the bus's root hub is removed. When the race occurs, it can cause an oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000015c IP: [<c16d5fb0>] recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED+0x20/0x60 Call Trace: [<c16d5fc4>] recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED+0x34/0x60 [<c16d5fc4>] recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED+0x34/0x60 [<c16d5fc4>] recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED+0x34/0x60 [<c16d5fc4>] recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED+0x34/0x60 [<c16d6082>] usb_set_device_state+0x92/0x120 [<c16d862b>] usb_disconnect+0x2b/0x1a0 [<c16dd4c0>] usb_remove_hcd+0xb0/0x160 [<c19ca846>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x26/0x50 [<c1704efc>] ehci_mid_remove+0x1c/0x30 [<c1704f26>] ehci_mid_stop_host+0x16/0x30 [<c16f7698>] penwell_otg_work+0xd28/0x3520 [<c19c945b>] ? __schedule+0x39b/0x7f0 [<c19cdb9d>] ? sub_preempt_count+0x3d/0x50 [<c125e97d>] process_one_work+0x11d/0x3d0 [<c19c7f4d>] ? mutex_unlock+0xd/0x10 [<c125e0e5>] ? manage_workers.isra.24+0x1b5/0x270 [<c125f009>] worker_thread+0xf9/0x320 [<c19ca846>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x26/0x50 [<c125ef10>] ? rescuer_thread+0x2b0/0x2b0 [<c1264ac4>] kthread+0x94/0xa0 [<c19d0f77>] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x1b/0x28 [<c1264a30>] ? kthread_create_on_node+0xc0/0xc0 One problem is that recursively_mark_NOTATTACHED() uses the intfdata value and hub->hdev->maxchild while hub_disconnect() is clearing them. Another problem is that it uses hub->ports[i] while the port device is being released. To fix this race, we need to hold the device_state_lock while hub_disconnect() changes the values. (Note that usb_disconnect() and hub_port_connect_change() already acquire this lock at similar critical times during a USB device's life cycle.) We also need to remove the port devices after maxchild has been set to 0, instead of before. Signed-off-by:

commit c1f15196 upstream. Genuine FTDI chips support only CS7/8. A previous fix in commit 8704211f ("USB: ftdi_sio: fixed handling of unsupported CSIZE setting") enforced this limitation and reported it back to userspace. However, certain types of smartcard readers depend on specific driver behaviour that requests 0 data bits (not 5) to change into a different operating mode if CS5 has been set. This patch reenables this behaviour for all FTDI devices. Tagged to be added to stable, because it affects a lot of users of embedded systems which rely on these readers to work properly.

commit 623c8263 upstream. Some PL2303 devices are known to lose bytes if you change serial settings even to the same values as before. Avoid this by comparing the encoded settings with the previsouly used ones before configuring the device. The common case was fixed by commit bf5e5834 ("pl2303: Fix mode switching regression"), but this problem was still possible to trigger, for instance, by using the TCSETS2-interface to repeatedly request 115201 baud, which gets mapped to 115200 and thus always triggers a settings update.

commit 2def2ef2 upstream. The x32 case for the recvmsg() timout handling is broken: asmlinkage long compat_sys_recvmmsg(int fd, struct compat_mmsghdr __user *mmsg, unsigned int vlen, unsigned int flags, struct compat_timespec __user *timeout) { int datagrams; struct timespec ktspec; if (flags & MSG_CMSG_COMPAT) return -EINVAL; if (COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME) return __sys_recvmmsg(fd, (struct mmsghdr __user *)mmsg, vlen, flags | MSG_CMSG_COMPAT, (struct timespec *) timeout); ... The timeout pointer parameter is provided by userland (hence the __user annotation) but for x32 syscalls it's simply cast to a kernel pointer and is passed to __sys_recvmmsg which will eventually directly dereference it for both reading and writing. Other callers to __sys_recvmmsg properly copy from userland to the kernel first. The bug was introduced by commit ee4fa23c ("compat: Use COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/compat.c") and should affect all kernels since 3.4 (and perhaps vendor kernels if they backported x32 support along with this code). Note that CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI gets enabled at build time and only if CONFIG_X86_X32 is enabled and ld can build x32 executables. Other uses of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME seem fine. This addresses CVE-2014-0038. Signed-off-by:

commit 9e6c3b63 upstream. This patch is to fix a compiler warning of __bad_udelay due to a value of >999 being passed as a parameter to udelay() in the function e1000e_phy_has_link_generic(). This affects the gcc compiler when it is given a flag of -O3 and the icc compiler. This patch is also making the change from mdelay() to msleep() in the same function, since it was determined though code inspection that this function is never called in atomic context.

commit 27c73ae7 upstream. Commit 7cb2ef56 ("mm: fix aio performance regression for database caused by THP") can cause dereference of a dangling pointer if split_huge_page runs during PageHuge() if there are updates to the tail_page->private field. Also it is repeating compound_head twice for hugetlbfs and it is running compound_head+compound_trans_head for THP when a single one is needed in both cases. The new code within the PageSlab() check doesn't need to verify that the THP page size is never bigger than the smallest hugetlbfs page size, to avoid memory corruption. A longstanding theoretical race condition was found while fixing the above (see the change right after the skip_unlock label, that is relevant for the compound_lock path too). By re-establishing the _mapcount tail refcounting for all compound pages, this also fixes the below problem: echo 0 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages BUG: Bad page state in process bash pfn:59a01 page:ffffea000139b038 count:0 mapcount:10 mapping: (null) index:0x0 page flags: 0x1c00000000008000(tail) Modules linked in: CPU: 6 PID: 2018 Comm: bash Not tainted 3.12.0+ #25 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x55/0x76 bad_page+0xd5/0x130 free_pages_prepare+0x213/0x280 __free_pages+0x36/0x80 update_and_free_page+0xc1/0xd0 free_pool_huge_page+0xc2/0xe0 set_max_huge_pages.part.58+0x14c/0x220 nr_hugepages_store_common.isra.60+0xd0/0xf0 nr_hugepages_store+0x13/0x20 kobj_attr_store+0xf/0x20 sysfs_write_file+0x189/0x1e0 vfs_write+0xc5/0x1f0 SyS_write+0x55/0xb0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by:

commit 1431574a upstream. When decompressing into memory, the output buffer length is set to some arbitrarily high value (0x7fffffff) to indicate the output is, virtually, unlimited in size. The problem with this is that some platforms have their physical memory at high physical addresses (0x80000000 or more), and that the output buffer address and its "unlimited" length cannot be added without overflowing. An example of this can be found in inflate_fast(): /* next_out is the output buffer address */ out = strm->next_out - OFF; /* avail_out is the output buffer size. end will overflow if the output * address is >= 0x80000104 */ end = out + (strm->avail_out - 257); This has huge consequences on the performance of kernel decompression, since the following exit condition of inflate_fast() will be always true: } while (in < last && out < end); Indeed, "end" has overflowed and is now always lower than "out". As a result, inflate_fast() will return after processing one single byte of input data, and will thus need to be called an unreasonably high number of times. This probably went unnoticed because kernel decompression is fast enough even with this issue. Nonetheless, adjusting the output buffer length in such a way that the above pointer arithmetic never overflows results in a kernel decompression that is about 3 times faster on affected machines.

commit 9f97e4b1 upstream. Before a write starts we set a bit in the write-intent bitmap. When the write completes we clear that bit if the write was successful to all devices. However if the write wasn't fully successful we should not clear the bit. If the faulty drive is subsequently re-added, the fact that the bit is still set ensure that we will re-write the data that is missing. This logic is mediated by the STRIPE_DEGRADED flag - we only clear the bitmap bit when this flag is not set. Currently we correctly set the flag if a write starts when some devices are failed or missing. But we do *not* set the flag if some device failed during the write attempt. This is wrong and can result in clearing the bit inappropriately. So: set the flag when a write fails. This bug has been present since bitmaps were introduces, so the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel. Reported-by:
