The real-time Linux folks don't like add_interrupt_randomness() taking
a spinlock since it is called in the low-level interrupt routine.
This also allows us to reduce the overhead in the fast path, for the
random driver, which is the interrupt collection path.

We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various
reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the
CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy
from a somewhat externally controllable source.
This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition
to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first.
During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu
pool. Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is
initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool. This
assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as
possible.
(Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by
tytso.)

/proc/sys/kernel/random/boot_id can be read concurrently by userspace
processes. If two (or more) user-space processes concurrently read
boot_id when sysctl_bootid is not yet assigned, a race can occur making
boot_id differ between the reads. Because the whole point of the boot id
is to be unique across a kernel execution, fix this by protecting this
operation with a spinlock.
Given that this operation is not frequently used, hitting the spinlock
on each call should not be an issue.

When we are initializing using arch_get_random_long() we only need to
loop enough times to touch all the bytes in the buffer; using
poolwords for that does twice the number of operations necessary on a
64-bit machine, since in the random number generator code "word" means
32 bits.
If there is an architecture-specific random number generator (such as
RDRAND for Intel architectures), use it to initialize /dev/random's
entropy stores. Even in the worst case, if RDRAND is something like
AES(NSA_KEY, counter++), it won't hurt, and it will definitely help
against any other adversaries.
We still don't use rdrand in /dev/random, which just seems stupid. We
accept the *cycle*counter* as a random input, but we don't accept
rdrand? That's just broken.
Sure, people can do things in user space (write to /dev/random, use
rdrand in addition to /dev/random themselves etc etc), but that
*still* seems to be a particularly stupid reason for saying "we
shouldn't bother to try to do better in /dev/random".
And even if somebody really doesn't trust rdrand as a source of random
bytes, it seems singularly stupid to trust the cycle counter *more*.
So I'd suggest the attached patch. I'm not going to even bother
arguing that we should add more bits to the entropy estimate, because
that's not the point - I don't care if /dev/random fills up slowly or
not, I think it's just stupid to not use the bits we can get from
rdrand and mix them into the strong randomness pool.

Architectural inlines to get random ints and longs using the RDRAND
instruction.
Intel has introduced a new RDRAND instruction, a Digital Random Number
Generator (DRNG), which is functionally an high bandwidth entropy
source, cryptographic whitener, and integrity monitor all built into
hardware. This enables RDRAND to be used directly, bypassing the
kernel random number pool.
In this patch, this is *only* used for the nonblocking random number
pool. RDRAND is a nonblocking source, similar to our /dev/urandom,
and is therefore not a direct replacement for /dev/random. The
architectural hooks presented in the previous patch only feed the
kernel internal users, which only use the nonblocking pool, and so
this is not a problem.
Since this instruction is available in userspace, there is no reason
to have a /dev/hw_rng device driver for the purpose of feeding rngd.
This is especially so since RDRAND is a nonblocking source, and needs
additional whitening and reduction (see the above technical
documentation for details) in order to be of "pure entropy source"
quality.
The CONFIG_EXPERT compile-time option can be used to disable this use
of RDRAND.

The 8020i protocol (also 8070i and QIC-157) uses 12-byte commands;
shorter commands must be padded. Simon Detheridge reports that his
3-TB USB disk drive claims to use the 8020i protocol (which is
normally meant for ATAPI devices like CD drives), and because of its
large size, the disk drive requires the use of 16-byte commands.
However the usb_stor_pad12_command() routine in usb-storage always
sets the command length to 12, making the drive impossible to use.
Since the SFF-8020i specification allows for 16-byte commands in
future extensions, we may as well accept them. This patch (as1490)
changes usb_stor_pad12_command() to leave commands larger than 12

Commit f5252e00 ("mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via
/proc/vmallocinfo") adds newly allocated vm_structs to the vmlist after
it is fully initialised. Unfortunately, it did not check that
__vmalloc_area_node() successfully populated the area. In the event of
allocation failure, the vmalloc area is freed but the pointer to freed
memory is inserted into the vmlist leading to a a crash later in
get_vmalloc_info().
This patch adds a check for ____vmalloc_area_node() failure within
__vmalloc_node_range. It does not use "goto fail" as in the previous
error path as a warning was already displayed by __vmalloc_area_node()
before it called vfree in its failure path.

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in
vmlist that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages
field of vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null
pointer access and leads to a kernel panic.
Why this happens: In __vmalloc_node_range() called from vmalloc(), newly
allocated vm_struct is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then,
some fields of vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at
__vmalloc_area_node(). In other words, it is added to vmlist before it is
fully initialized. At the same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read,
it accesses the pages field of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field
at show_numa_info(). Thus, a null pointer access happens.
The patch adds the newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is
fully initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with
unallocated page when show_numa_info() is called.

useful.
Divide the warning options in three groups:
W=1 - warnings that may be relevant and does not occur too often
W=2 - warnings that occur quite often but may still be relevant
W=3 - the more obscure warnings, can most likely be ignored
When building the whole kernel, those levels produce:
Many warnings occur from .h files so fixing one file may have a nice
effect on the total number of warnings.
With these changes I am actually tempted to try W=1 now and then.
Previously there was just too much noise.

- make the W= levels exclusive
- move very noisy and making little sense for the kernel warnings to W=3

The update of the hrtimer base offsets on all cpus cannot be made
atomically from the timekeeper.lock held and interrupt disabled region
as smp function calls are not allowed there.
clock_was_set(), which enforces the update on all cpus, is called
either from preemptible process context in case of do_settimeofday()
or from the softirq context when the offset modification happened in
the timer interrupt itself due to a leap second.
In both cases there is a race window for an hrtimer interrupt between
dropping timekeeper lock, enabling interrupts and clock_was_set()
issuing the updates. Any interrupt which arrives in that window will
see the new time but operate on stale offsets.
So we need to make sure that an hrtimer interrupt always sees a
consistent state of time and offsets.
ktime_get_update_offsets() allows us to get the current monotonic time
and update the per cpu hrtimer base offsets from hrtimer_interrupt()
to capture a consistent state of monotonic time and the offsets. The
function replaces the existing ktime_get() calls in hrtimer_interrupt().
The overhead of the new function vs. ktime_get() is minimal as it just
adds two store operations.
This ensures that any changes to realtime or boottime offsets are
noticed and stored into the per-cpu hrtimer base structures, prior to
any hrtimer expiration and guarantees that timers are not expired early.

The timekeeping code misses an update of the hrtimer subsystem after a
leap second happened. Due to that timers based on CLOCK_REALTIME are
either expiring a second early or late depending on whether a leap
second has been inserted or deleted until an operation is initiated
which causes that update. Unless the update happens by some other
means this discrepancy between the timekeeping and the hrtimer data
stays forever and timers are expired either early or late.
The reported immediate workaround - $ data -s "`date`" - is causing a
call to clock_was_set() which updates the hrtimer data structures.
See: http://www.sheeri.com/content/mysql-and-leap-second-high-cpu-and-fix
Add the missing clock_was_set() call to update_wall_time() in case of

clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because
it calls on_each_cpu().
For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to
call it from hard interrupt context, i.e. the timer tick code, which
does the timekeeping updates.
Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base
structure of the cpu on which it is called and raise the hrtimer
softirq. We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation from
softirq context in run_hrtimer_softirq(). The hrtimer softirq is
rarely used, so polling the flag there is not a performance issue.

In commit 6b43ae8a619d17c4935c3320d2ef9e92bdeed05d, I
introduced a bug that kept the STA_INS or STA_DEL bit
from being cleared from time_status via adjtimex()
without forcing STA_PLL first.
Usually once the STA_INS is set, it isn't cleared
until the leap second is applied, so its unlikely this
affected anyone. However during testing I noticed it
took some effort to cancel a leap second once STA_INS
was set.

This should have been backported when it was commited, but I
mistook the problem as requiring the ntp_lock changes
that landed in 3.4 in order for it to occur.
Unfortunately the same issue can happen (with only one cpu)
as follows:
do_adjtimex()
write_seqlock_irq(&xtime_lock);
process_adjtimex_modes()
process_adj_status()
ntp_start_leap_timer()
hrtimer_start()
hrtimer_reprogram()
tick_program_event()
clockevents_program_event()
ktime_get()
seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock); [DEADLOCK]
This deadlock will no always occur, as it requires the
leap_timer to force a hrtimer_reprogram which only happens
if its set and there's no sooner timer to expire.
NOTE: This patch, being faithful to the original commit,
introduces a bug (we don't update wall_to_monotonic),
which will be resovled by backporting a following fix.
Original commit message below:
Since commit 7dffa3c673fbcf835cd7be80bb4aec8ad3f51168 the ntp
subsystem has used an hrtimer for triggering the leapsecond
adjustment. However, this can cause a potential livelock.
Thomas diagnosed this as the following pattern:
CPU 0 CPU 1
do_adjtimex()
spin_lock_irq(&ntp_lock);
process_adjtimex_modes(); timer_interrupt()
process_adj_status(); do_timer()
ntp_start_leap_timer(); write_lock(&xtime_lock);
hrtimer_start(); update_wall_time();
hrtimer_reprogram(); ntp_tick_length()
tick_program_event() spin_lock(&ntp_lock);
clockevents_program_event()
ktime_get()
seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock);
This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using
an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond
processing in the second_overflow() function.
The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres
timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary,
(ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ) after the leap second instead of
possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic).
This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core.

To configure pads during the initialisation a set of special constants
is used, e.g.

The problem is that no pull-up/down is getting activated unless both
PAD_CTL_PUE (pull-up enable) and PAD_CTL_PKE (pull/keeper module
enable) set. This is clearly stated in the i.MX25 datasheet and is
confirmed by the measurements on hardware. This leads to some rather
hard to understand bugs such as misdetecting an absent ethernet PHY (a
real bug i had), unstable data transfer etc. This might affect mx25,
mx35, mx50, mx51 and mx53 SoCs.

demonstrated with the following trivial test program:

int main(void) {
int e1, e2;
struct epoll_event evt = {
.events = EPOLLIN
};

When compiling an i386_defconfig kernel with gcc-4.6.1-9.fc15.i686, I
noticed a warning about the asm operand for test_bit in kprobes'
can_boost. I discovered that this caused only the first long of
twobyte_is_boostable[] to be output.
Jakub filed and fixed gcc PR50571 to correct the warning and this output
issue. But to solve it for less current gcc, we can make kprobes'
twobyte_is_boostable[] non-const, and it won't be optimized out.

During kdump testing I noticed timeouts when initialising each IPR
adapter. While the driver has logic to detect an adapter in an
indeterminate state, it wasn't triggering and each adapter went
through a 5 minute timeout before finally going operational.
Some analysis showed the needs_hard_reset flag wasn't getting set.
We can check the reset_devices kernel parameter which is set by
kdump and force a full reset. This fixes the problem.

There are 2 situations wherein the xhci_ring* might not get freed:
- When xhci_ring_alloc() -> xhci_segment_alloc() returns NULL and
we goto the fail: label in xhci_ring_alloc. In this case, the ring
will not get kfreed.
- When the num_segs argument to xhci_ring_alloc is passed as 0 and
we try to free the rung after that.
( This doesn't really happen as of now in the code but we seem to
be entertaining num_segs=0 in xhci_ring_alloc )
This should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31.

If the usermode app does an ioctl over this serial device by
using TIOCMIWAIT, then the code will wait by setting the current
task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and then calling schedule().
This will be woken up by the qt2_process_modem_status on URB
completion when the port_extra->shadowMSR is set to the new
modem status.
However, this could result in a lost wakeup scenario due to a race
in the logic in the qt2_ioctl(TIOCMIWAIT) loop and the URB completion
for new modem status in qt2_process_modem_status.
Due to this, the usermode app's task will continue to sleep despite a
change in the modem status.

x25_find_listener does not check that the amount of call user data given
in the skb is big enough in per-socket comparisons, hence buffer
overreads may occur. Fix this by adding a check.

The w83627ehf driver is improperly reporting thermal diode sensors as
type 2, instead of 3. This caused "sensors" and possibly other
monitoring tools to report these sensors as "transistor" instead of
"thermal diode".
Furthermore, diode subtype selection (CPU vs. external) is only
supported by the original W83627EHF/EHG. All later models only support
CPU diode type, and some (NCT6776F) don't even have the register in
question so we should avoid reading from it.

Patch to add SiGma Micro-based keyboards (1c4f:0002) to hid-quirks.
These keyboards dont seem to allow the records to be initialized, and hence a
timeout occurs when the usbhid driver attempts to initialize them. The patch
just adds the signature for these keyboards to the hid-quirks list with the
setting HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS. This removes the 5-10 second wait for the
timeout to occur.
Like e65cc194f7628ecaa02462f22f42fb09b50dcd49 this patch enables 64bit DMA
for the AHCI SATA controller of a board that has the SB600 southbridge. In
this case though we're enabling 64bit DMA for the Asus M3A motherboard. It
is a new enough board that all of the BIOS releases since the initial
release (0301 from 2007-10-22) work correctly with 64bit DMA enabled.

The following patch is admittedly a band-aid, and does not solve the
root cause, but it still is a good candidate for hardening as a pointer
check before reference.

Incorrect variable was used in validating the akm_suites array from
NL80211_ATTR_AKM_SUITES. In addition, there was no explicit
validation of the array length (we only have room for
NL80211_MAX_NR_AKM_SUITES).
This can result in a buffer write overflow for stack variables with
arbitrary data from user space. The nl80211 commands using the affected
functionality require GENL_ADMIN_PERM, so this is only exposed to admin
users.

In an enclosure model where there are chaining expanders to a large body
of storage, it was discovered that libsas, responding to a broadcast
event change, would only revalidate the domain of first child expander
in the list.
The issue is that the pointer value to the discovered source device was
used to break out of the loop, rather than the content of the pointer.
This still remains non-compliant as the revalidate domain code is
supposed to loop through all child expanders, and not stop at the first
one it finds that reports a change count. However, the design of this
routine does not allow multiple device discoveries and that would be a
more complicated set of patches reserved for another day. We are fixing
the glaring bug rather than refactoring the code.
