Add a new device quirk that can be used to blacklist endpoints. Since commit 3e4f8e21 ("USB: core: fix check for duplicate endpoints") USB core ignores any duplicate endpoints found during descriptor parsing. In order to handle devices where the first interfaces with duplicate endpoints are the ones that should have their endpoints ignored, we need to add a blacklist.

Currently the string formatting is mixing up the offset of ret and len. Re-work the code to use just len, remove ret and use scnprintf instead of snprintf and len position accumulation where required. Remove the -ve return check since scnprintf never returns a failure -ve size. Also break overly long lines to clean up checkpatch warnings.

Paul Zimmerman reports that his USB Bluetooth adapter sometimes crashes following system resume, when it receives a Get-Device-Descriptor request while it is busy doing something else. Such a request was added by commit a4f55d8b ("usb: hub: Check device descriptor before resusciation"). It gets sent when the hub driver's work thread checks whether a connect-change event on an enabled port really indicates a new device has been connected, as opposed to an old device momentarily disconnecting and then reconnecting (which can happen with xHCI host controllers, since they automatically enable connected ports). The same kind of thing occurs when a port's power session is lost during system suspend. When the system wakes up it sees a connect-change event on the port, and if the child device's persist_enabled flag was set then hub_activate() sets the device's reset_resume flag as well as the port's bit in hub->change_bits. The reset-resume code then takes responsibility for checking that the same device is still attached to the port, and it does this as part of the device's resume pathway. By the time the hub driver's work thread starts up again, the device has already been fully reinitialized and is busy doing its own thing. There's no need for the work thread to do the same check a second time, and in fact this unnecessary check is what caused the problem that Paul observed. Note that performing the unnecessary check is not actually a bug. Devices are supposed to be able to send descriptors back to the host even when they are busy doing something else. The underlying cause of Paul's problem lies in his Bluetooth adapter. Nevertheless, we shouldn't perform the same check twice in a row -- and as a nice side benefit, removing the extra check allows the Bluetooth adapter to work more reliably. The work thread performs its check when it sees that the port's bit is set in hub->change_bits. In this situation that bit is interpreted as though a connect-change event had occurred on the port _after_ the reset-resume, which is not what actually happened. One possible fix would be to make the reset-resume code clear the port's bit in hub->change_bits. But it seems simpler to just avoid setting the bit during hub_activate() in the first place. That's what this patch does. (Proving that the patch is correct when CONFIG_PM is disabled requires a little thought. In that setting hub_activate() will be called only for initialization and resets, since there won't be any resumes or reset-resumes. During initialization and hub resets the hub doesn't have any child devices, and so this code path never gets executed.)

When a uas disk is plugged into an external hub, uas_probe() will be called by the hub thread to do the probe. It will first create a SCSI host and then do the scan for this host. During the scan, it will probe the LUN using SCSI INQUERY command which will be packed in the URB and submitted to uas disk. There might be a chance that this external hub with uas disk attached is unplugged during the scan. In this case, uas driver will fail to submit the URB (due to the NOTATTACHED state of uas device) and try to put this SCSI command back to request queue waiting for next chance to run. In normal case, this cycle will terminate when hub thread gets disconnection event and calls into uas_disconnect() accordingly. But in this case, uas_disconnect() will not be called because hub thread of external hub gets stuck waiting for the completion of this SCSI command. A deadlock happened. In this fix, uas will call scsi_scan_host() asynchronously to avoid the blocking of hub thread.

Renesas R-Car H3ULCB + Kingfisher Infotainment Board is either not able to detect the USB3.0 mass storage devices or is detecting those as USB2.0 high speed devices. The explanation given by Renesas is that, due to a HW issue, the XHCI driver does not wake up after going to sleep on connecting a USB3.0 device. In order to mitigate that, disable the auto-suspend feature specifically for SMSC hubs from hub_probe() function, as a quirk. Renesas Kingfisher Infotainment Board has two USB3.0 ports (CN2) which are connected via USB5534B 4-port SuperSpeed/Hi-Speed, low-power, configurable hub controller.

Intel hosts that need the XHCI_PME_STUCK_QUIRK flag should enable runtime pm by calling xhci_pme_acpi_rtd3_enable() before usb_hcd_pci_probe() calls pci_dev_run_wake(). Otherwise usage count for the device won't be decreased, and runtime suspend is prevented. usb_hcd_pci_probe() only decreases the usage count if device can generate run-time wake-up events, i.e. when pci_dev_run_wake() returns true. This issue was exposed by pci_dev_run_wake() change in commit 8feaec33 ("PCI / PM: Always check PME wakeup capability for runtime wakeup support") and should be backported to kernels with that change Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 4.13+ Signed-off-by: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200210134553.9144-4-mathias.nyman@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

xhci driver assumed that xHC controllers have at most one custom supported speed table (PSI) for all usb 3.x ports. Memory was allocated for one PSI table under the xhci hub structure. Turns out this is not the case, some controllers have a separate "supported protocol capability" entry with a PSI table for each port. This means each usb3 roothub port can in theory support different custom speeds. To solve this, cache all supported protocol capabilities with their PSI tables in an array, and add pointers to the xhci port structure so that every port points to its capability entry in the array. When creating the SuperSpeedPlus USB Device Capability BOS descriptor for the xhci USB 3.1 roothub we for now will use only data from the first USB 3.1 capable protocol capability entry in the array. This could be improved later, this patch focuses resolving the memory leak.

A Full-speed bulk USB audio device (DJ-Tech CTRL) with a invalid Maximum Packet Size of 4 causes a xHC "Parameter Error" at enumeration. This is because valid Maximum packet sizes for Full-speed bulk endpoints are 8, 16, 32 and 64 bytes. Hosts are not required to support other values than these. See usb 2 specs section 5.8.3 for details. The device starts working after forcing the maximum packet size to 8. This is most likely the case with other devices as well, so force the maximum packet size to a valid range.

Pull new zonefs file system from Damien Le Moal: "Zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned block device as a file. Unlike a regular file system with native zoned block device support (e.g. f2fs or the on-going btrfs effort), zonefs does not hide the sequential write constraint of zoned block devices to the user. As a result, zonefs is not a POSIX compliant file system. Its goal is to simplify the implementation of zoned block devices support in applications by replacing raw block device file accesses with a richer file based API, avoiding relying on direct block device file ioctls which may be more obscure to developers. One example of this approach is the implementation of LSM (log-structured merge) tree structures (such as used in RocksDB and LevelDB) on zoned block devices by allowing SSTables to be stored in a zone file similarly to a regular file system rather than as a range of sectors of a zoned device. The introduction of the higher level construct "one file is one zone" can help reducing the amount of changes needed in the application while at the same time allowing the use of zoned block devices with various programming languages other than C. Zonefs IO management implementation uses the new iomap generic code. Zonefs has been successfully tested using a functional test suite (available with zonefs userland format tool on github) and a prototype implementation of LevelDB on top of zonefs" * tag 'zonefs-5.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dlemoal/zonefs: zonefs: Add documentation fs: New zonefs file system

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of fixes for X86: - Ensure that the PIT is set up when the local APIC is disable or configured in legacy mode. This is caused by an ordering issue introduced in the recent changes which skip PIT initialization when the TSC and APIC frequencies are already known. - Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing which caused an infinite loop anda boot hang. - Fix a long standing race in the affinity setting code which affects PCI devices with non-maskable MSI interrupts. The problem is caused by the non-atomic writes of the MSI address (destination APIC id) and data (vector) fields which the device uses to construct the MSI message. The non-atomic writes are mandated by PCI. If both fields change and the device raises an interrupt after writing address and before writing data, then the MSI block constructs a inconsistent message which causes interrupts to be lost and subsequent malfunction of the device. The fix is to redirect the interrupt to the new vector on the current CPU first and then switch it over to the new target CPU. This allows to observe an eventually raised interrupt in the transitional stage (old CPU, new vector) to be observed in the APIC IRR and retriggered on the new target CPU and the new vector. The potential spurious interrupts caused by this are harmless and can in the worst case expose a buggy driver (all handlers have to be able to deal with spurious interrupts as they can and do happen for various reasons). - Add the missing suspend/resume mechanism for the HYPERV hypercall page which prevents resume hibernation on HYPERV guests. This change got lost before the merge window. - Mask the IOAPIC before disabling the local APIC to prevent potentially stale IOAPIC remote IRR bits which cause stale interrupt lines after resume" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/apic: Mask IOAPIC entries when disabling the local APIC x86/hyperv: Suspend/resume the hypercall page for hibernation x86/apic/msi: Plug non-maskable MSI affinity race x86/boot: Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing x86/timer: Don't skip PIT setup when APIC is disabled or in legacy mode

VirtualBox hosts can share folders with guests, this commit adds a VFS driver implementing the Linux-guest side of this, allowing folders exported by the host to be mounted under Linux. This driver depends on the guest <-> host IPC functions exported by the vboxguest driver.

This is a merge error on my part - the driver was merged into mainline by commit c5951e7c ("Merge tag 'mips_5.6' of git://../mips/linux") over a week ago, but nobody apparently noticed that it didn't actually build due to still having a reference to the devm_ioremap_nocache() function, removed a few days earlier through commit 6a1000bd ("Merge tag 'ioremap-5.6' of git://../ioremap"). Apparently this didn't get any build testing anywhere. Not perhaps all that surprising: it's restricted to 64-bit MIPS only, and only with the new SGI_MFD_IOC3 support enabled. I only noticed because the ioremap conflicts in the ARM SoC driver update made me check there weren't any others hiding, and I found this one.

Pull vfs file system parameter updates from Al Viro: "Saner fs_parser.c guts and data structures. The system-wide registry of syntax types (string/enum/int32/oct32/.../etc.) is gone and so is the horror switch() in fs_parse() that would have to grow another case every time something got added to that system-wide registry. New syntax types can be added by filesystems easily now, and their namespace is that of functions - not of system-wide enum members. IOW, they can be shared or kept private and if some turn out to be widely useful, we can make them common library helpers, etc., without having to do anything whatsoever to fs_parse() itself. And we already get that kind of requests - the thing that finally pushed me into doing that was "oh, and let's add one for timeouts - things like 15s or 2h". If some filesystem really wants that, let them do it. Without somebody having to play gatekeeper for the variants blessed by direct support in fs_parse(), TYVM. Quite a bit of boilerplate is gone.

Merge thundering herd avoidance on pipe IO. This would have been applied for 5.5 already, but got delayed because of a user-space race condition in the GNU make jobserver code. Now that there's a new GNU make 4.3 release, and most distributions seem to have at least applied the (almost three year old) fix for the problem, let's see if people notice. And it might have been just bad random timing luck on my machine. If you do hit the race condition, things will still work, but the symptom is that you don't get nearly the expected parallelism when using "make -j<N>". The jobserver bug can definitely happen without this patch too, but seems to be easier to trigger when we no longer wake up pipe waiters unnecessarily. * pipe-exclusive-wakeup: pipe: use exclusive waits when reading or writing

Linus Torvalds authored
This makes the pipe code use separate wait-queues and exclusive waiting for readers and writers, avoiding a nasty thundering herd problem when there are lots of readers waiting for data on a pipe (or, less commonly, lots of writers waiting for a pipe to have space). While this isn't a common occurrence in the traditional "use a pipe as a data transport" case, where you typically only have a single reader and a single writer process, there is one common special case: using a pipe as a source of "locking tokens" rather than for data communication. In particular, the GNU make jobserver code ends up using a pipe as a way to limit parallelism, where each job consumes a token by reading a byte from the jobserver pipe, and releases the token by writing a byte back to the pipe. This pattern is fairly traditional on Unix, and works very well, but will waste a lot of time waking up a lot of processes when only a single reader needs to be woken up when a writer releases a new token. A simplified test-case of just this pipe interaction is to create 64 processes, and then pass a single token around between them (this test-case also intentionally passes another token that gets ignored to test the "wake up next" logic too, in case anybody wonders about it): #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2], counters[2]; pipe(fd); counters[0] = 0; counters[1] = -1; write(fd[1], counters, sizeof(counters)); /* 64 processes */ fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); fork(); do { int i; read(fd[0], &i, sizeof(i)); if (i < 0) continue; counters[0] = i+1; write(fd[1], counters, (1+(i & 1)) *sizeof(int)); } while (counters[0] < 1000000); return 0; } and in a perfect world, passing that token around should only cause one context switch per transfer, when the writer of a token causes a directed wakeup of just a single reader. But with the "writer wakes all readers" model we traditionally had, on my test box the above case causes more than an order of magnitude more scheduling: instead of the expected ~1M context switches, "perf stat" shows 231,852.37 msec task-clock # 15.857 CPUs utilized 11,250,961 context-switches # 0.049 M/sec 616,304 cpu-migrations # 0.003 M/sec 1,648 page-faults # 0.007 K/sec 1,097,903,998,514 cycles # 4.735 GHz 120,781,778,352 instructions # 0.11 insn per cycle 27,997,056,043 branches # 120.754 M/sec 283,581,233 branch-misses # 1.01% of all branches 14.621273891 seconds time elapsed 0.018243000 seconds user 3.611468000 seconds sys before this commit. After this commit, I get 5,229.55 msec task-clock # 3.072 CPUs utilized 1,212,233 context-switches # 0.232 M/sec 103,951 cpu-migrations # 0.020 M/sec 1,328 page-faults # 0.254 K/sec 21,307,456,166 cycles # 4.074 GHz 12,947,819,999 instructions # 0.61 insn per cycle 2,881,985,678 branches # 551.096 M/sec 64,267,015 branch-misses # 2.23% of all branches 1.702148350 seconds time elapsed 0.004868000 seconds user 0.110786000 seconds sys instead. Much better. [ Note! This kernel improvement seems to be very good at triggering a race condition in the make jobserver (in GNU make 4.2.1) for me. It's a long known bug that was fixed back in June 2017 by GNU make commit b552b0525198 ("[SV 51159] Use a non-blocking read with pselect to avoid hangs."). But there wasn't a new release of GNU make until 4.3 on Jan 19 2020, so a number of distributions may still have the buggy version. Some have backported the fix to their 4.2.1 release, though, and even without the fix it's quite timing-dependent whether the bug actually is hit. ] Josh Triplett says: "I've been hammering on your pipe fix patch (switching to exclusive wait queues) for a month or so, on several different systems, and I've run into no issues with it. The patch *substantially* improves parallel build times on large (~100 CPU) systems, both with parallel make and with other things that use make's pipe-based jobserver. All current distributions (including stable and long-term stable distributions) have versions of GNU make that no longer have the jobserver bug" Tested-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
