With some buggy devices, the usb-audio driver may give "frame xxx active"
kernel messages too often. Better to keep it as debug-only using
snd_printdd(), and also add the rate-limit for avoiding floods.
Commit 503358ae01b70ce6909d19dd01287093f6b6271c ("ext4: avoid divide by
zero when trying to mount a corrupted file system") fixes CVE-2009-4307
by performing a sanity check on s_log_groups_per_flex, since it can be
set to a bogus value by an attacker.
This patch fixes two potential issues in the previous commit.
1) The sanity check might only work on architectures like PowerPC.
On x86, 5 bits are used for the shifting amount. That means, given a
large s_log_groups_per_flex value like 36, groups_per_flex = 1 << 36
is essentially 1 << 4 = 16, rather than 0. This will bypass the check,
leaving s_log_groups_per_flex and groups_per_flex inconsistent.
2) The sanity check relies on undefined behavior, i.e., oversized shift.
A standard-confirming C compiler could rewrite the check in unexpected
ways. Consider the following equivalent form, assuming groups_per_flex
is unsigned for simplicity.
We compile the code snippet using Clang 3.0 and GCC 4.6. Clang will
completely optimize away the check groups_per_flex == 0, leaving the
patched code as vulnerable as the original. GCC keeps the check, but
there is no guarantee that future versions will do the same.

Online resize ioctls 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND' and 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD'
call ext4_resize_begin() to check permissions and to set the
EXT4_RESIZING bit lock, they do their work and they must finish with
ext4_resize_end() which calls clear_bit_unlock() to unlock and to
avoid -EBUSY errors for the next resize operations.
This patch adds the missing ext4_resize_end() calls on error paths.
Commit f44f7f96a20a ("RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTC") introduced a
potential infinite loop. If an alarm time contains a wildcard month and
an invalid day (> 31), or a wildcard year and an invalid month (>= 12),
the loop searching for the next matching date will never terminate. Treat
the invalid values as wildcards.
But on these error paths, the block device's `dev->open' count is
already incremented before we check for errors. This meant that, while
the error path was handled correctly on the first time through
blktrans_open(), the device is erroneously considered already open on
the second time through.
This problem can be seen, for instance, when a UBI volume is
simultaneously mounted as a UBIFS partition and read through its
corresponding gluebi mtdblockX device. This results in blktrans_open()
passing its error checks (with `dev->open > 0') without actually having
a handle on the device. Here's a summarized log of the actions and
results with nandsim:
The array of unsigned long pointed by oops_page_used is allocated
by vmalloc which requires the size to be in bytes.
BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 32.
If we want to allocate memory for 32 pages with one bit per page then
32 / BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 1 byte that is 8 bits.
To fix it we need to multiply the result by sizeof(unsigned long) equal to 4.

usb: cdc-acm: Fix acm_tty_hangup() vs. acm_tty_close() race
[Not upstream as it was fixed differently for 3.3 with a much more
"intrusive" rework of the driver - gregkh]
There is a race condition involving acm_tty_hangup() and acm_tty_close()
where hangup() would attempt to access tty->driver_data without proper
locking and NULL checking after close() has potentially already set it
to NULL. One possibility to (sporadically) trigger this behavior is to
perform a suspend/resume cycle with a running WWAN data connection.
This patch addresses the issue by introducing a NULL check for
tty->driver_data in acm_tty_hangup() protected by open_mutex and exiting
gracefully when hangup() is invoked on a device that has already been
closed.
If slave device already has a receive handler registered, then the
error unwind of bonding device enslave function is broken.
The following will leave a pointer to freed memory in the slave
device list, causing a later kernel panic.
# modprobe dummy
# ip li add dummy0-1 link dummy0 type macvlan
# modprobe bonding
# echo +dummy0 >/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
The fix is to detach the slave (which removes it from the list)
in the unwind path.

According to USB 3.0 Specification Table 9-22, if
bmAttributes [4:0] are set to zero, it means "no

For example on DWC3, we would tell the controller
endpoint has streams enabled and yet start transfers
with Stream ID set to 0, which would goof up the host

I encountered a result of COMP_2ND_BW_ERR while improving how the pwc
webcam driver handles not having the full usb1 bandwidth available to

I created the following test setup, a NEC xhci controller with a
single TT USB 2 hub plugged into it, with a usb keyboard and a pwc webcam
plugged into the usb2 hub. This caused the following to show up in dmesg
when trying to stream from the pwc camera at its highest alt setting:
xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: ERROR: unexpected command completion code 0x23.
usb 6-2.1: Not enough bandwidth for altsetting 9
And usb_set_interface returned -EINVAL, which caused my pwc code to not
do the right thing as it expected -ENOSPC.
This patch makes the xhci driver properly handle COMP_2ND_BW_ERR and makes
usb_set_interface return -ENOSPC as expected.

This patch fixes a crash in reiserfs_delete_xattrs during umount.
When shrink_dcache_for_umount clears the dcache from
generic_shutdown_super, delayed evictions are forced to disk. If an
evicted inode has extended attributes associated with it, it will
need to walk the xattr tree to locate and remove them.
But since shrink_dcache_for_umount will BUG if it encounters active
dentries, the xattr tree must be released before it's called or it will
crash during every umount.
This patch forces the evictions to occur before generic_shutdown_super
by calling shrink_dcache_sb first. The additional evictions caused

handled as they're added to the LRU list.

NFS might send us offsets that are not PAGE aligned. So

we need it for Parity calculations.
We only add an sg segments to read the partial page. But
we don't mark it as read=true because it is a lock-for-write
page.
TODO: In some cases (IO spans a single unit) we can just
adjust the raid_unit offset/length, but this is left for
later Kernels.

Additionally, the manual alignment code here is
unnecessary -- Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt
states:
The cpu return address and the DMA bus master address are both
guaranteed to be aligned to the smallest PAGE_SIZE order which
is greater than or equal to the requested size. This invariant
exists (for example) to guarantee that if you allocate a chunk
which is smaller than or equal to 64 kilobytes, the extent of the
buffer you receive will not cross a 64K boundary.
Just use appropriate new constants and get rid of

While I've not found a smoking gun, there are two places that raised red flags
for me. The first is in _internal_start_scan, when we queue up a scan; we
first queue the worker, and then set priv->scan_req. There's theoretically
a 50mS delay which should be plenty, but doing things that way just seems
racy (and not in the good way).
The second is in the scan worker thread itself. Depending on the state of
priv->scan_channel, we cancel pending scan runs and then requeue a run in
300mS. We then send the scan command down to the hardware, sleep, and if
we get scan results for all the desired channels, we set priv->scan_req to
NULL. However, it that's happened in less than 300mS, what happens with
the pending scan run?
This patch addresses both of those concerns. With the patch applied, we
have not seen the oops in the past two weeks.

When using a >8bpp framebuffer, offb advertises truecolor, not directcolor,
and doesn't touch the color map even if it has a corresponding access method
for the real hardware.
Thus it needs to set the pseudo-palette with all 3 components of the color,
like other truecolor framebuffers, not with copies of the color index like
a directcolor framebuffer would do.
This went unnoticed for a long time because it's pretty hard to get offb
to kick in with anything but 8bpp (old BootX under MacOS will do that and
qemu does it).

This oops was reported recently:

vfs_write+0xac/0xf3

system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
The complete backtrace was unfortunately not captured, but details can be found
here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769920
The cause is fairly clear.
Its caused by the fact that firmware_loading_store has a case 0 in its
switch statement that reads and writes the fw_priv->fw poniter without the
protection of the fw_lock mutex. since there is a window between the time that
_request_firmware sets fw_priv->fw to NULL and the time the corresponding sysfs
file is unregistered, its possible for a user space application to race in, and
write a zero to the loading file, causing a NULL dereference in
firmware_loading_store. Fix it by extending the protection of the fw_lock mutex
to cover all of the firware_loading_store function.

ptrace: ensure JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK is not zero after detach
This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.
1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
thread which can initiate another group-stop.
Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).
2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.
Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.
Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
possible similar problems.
do {
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0);
pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0);
} while (pid > 0);
return 1;
}
It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state
while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE
in wait_task_zombie().
The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check,
but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not
correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into
account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace.
This patch adds the additional check to close this particular
race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't
rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer
is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent.
I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always
remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least
we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too
complex for 3.2.
The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too
early, and can cause oopses at bootup
Neil Brown explains why we do it:
"If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after
that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in
the past.
When this happens the queue gets stuck. That entry-in-the-past won't
get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen
because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now".
So you'll find that e.g. "hwclock" will always tell you that
'select' timed out.
So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case."
and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with
the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this,
so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

security: Fix security_old_inode_init_security() when CONFIG_SECURITY is not set
Commit 1e39f384bb01 ("evm: fix build problems") makes the stub version
of security_old_inode_init_security() return 0 when CONFIG_SECURITY is
not set.
But that makes callers such as reiserfs_security_init() assume that
security_old_inode_init_security() has set name, value, and len
arguments properly - but security_old_inode_init_security() left them
uninitialized which then results in interesting failures.
Revert security_old_inode_init_security() to the old behavior of
returning EOPNOTSUPP since both callers (reiserfs and ocfs2) handle this
just fine.
[ Also fixed the S_PRIVATE(inode) case of the actual non-stub

for the same reason, as pointed out by Mimi Zohar.

futex: Fix uninterruptible loop due to gate_area
It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.
While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?
In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.
But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.
