2020-09-09affs: fix basic permission bits to actually workMax Staudt
commit d3a84a8d0dde4e26bc084b36ffcbdc5932ac85e2 upstream. The basic permission bits (protection bits in AmigaOS) have been broken in Linux' AFFS - it would only set bits, but never delete them. Also, contrary to the documentation, the Archived bit was not handled. Let's fix this for good, and set the bits such that Linux and classic AmigaOS can coexist in the most peaceful manner. Also, update the documentation to represent the current state of things.

2020-08-26kbuild: support LLVM=1 to switch the default tools to Clang/LLVMMasahiro Yamada
commit a0d1c951ef08ed24f35129267e3595d86f57f5d3 upstream. As Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst implies, building the kernel with a full set of LLVM tools gets very verbose and unwieldy. Provide a single switch LLVM=1 to use Clang and LLVM tools instead of GCC and Binutils. You can pass it from the command line or as an environment variable. Please note LLVM=1 does not turn on the integrated assembler. You need to pass LLVM_IAS=1 to use it. When the upstream kernel is ready for the integrated assembler, I think we can make it default. We discussed what we need, and we agreed to go with a simple boolean flag that switches both target and host tools: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/28/494 https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/4/3/43 Some items discussed, but not adopted: - LLVM_DIR When multiple versions of LLVM are installed, I just thought supporting LLVM_DIR=/path/to/my/llvm/bin/ might be useful. CC = $(LLVM_DIR)clang LD = $(LLVM_DIR)ld.lld ... However, we can handle this by modifying PATH. So, we decided to not do this. - LLVM_SUFFIX Some distributions (e.g. Debian) package specific versions of LLVM with naming conventions that use the version as a suffix. CC = clang$(LLVM_SUFFIX) LD = ld.lld(LLVM_SUFFIX) ... will allow a user to pass LLVM_SUFFIX=-11 to use clang-11 etc., but the suffixed versions in /usr/bin/ are symlinks to binaries in /usr/lib/llvm-#/bin/, so this can also be handled by PATH.

commit 7e20e47c70f810d678d02941fa3c671209c4ca97 upstream. The 'AS' variable is unused for building the kernel. Only the remaining usage is to turn on the integrated assembler.

[ Upstream commit f7d31e65368aeef973fab788aa22c4f1d5a6af66 ] The problem the patch is trying to address is the fact that 'struct kvm_hyperv_exit' has different layout on when compiling in 32 and 64 bit modes. In 64-bit mode the default alignment boundary is 64 bits thus forcing extra gaps after 'type' and 'msr' but in 32-bit mode the boundary is at 32 bits thus no extra gaps. This is an issue as even when the kernel is 64 bit, the userspace using the interface can be both 32 and 64 bit but the same 32 bit userspace has to work with 32 bit kernel. The issue is fixed by forcing the 64 bit layout, this leads to ABI change for 32 bit builds and while we are obviously breaking '32 bit userspace with 32 bit kernel' case, we're fixing the '32 bit userspace with 64 bit kernel' one. As the interface has no (known) users and 32 bit KVM is rather baroque nowadays, this seems like a reasonable decision.

2020-06-17lib/lzo: fix ambiguous encoding bug in lzo-rleDave Rodgman
commit b5265c813ce4efbfa2e46fd27cdf9a7f44a35d2e upstream. In some rare cases, for input data over 32 KB, lzo-rle could encode two different inputs to the same compressed representation, so that decompression is then ambiguous (i.e. data may be corrupted - although zram is not affected because it operates over 4 KB pages). This modifies the compressor without changing the decompressor or the bitstream format, such that: - there is no change to how data produced by the old compressor is decompressed - an old decompressor will correctly decode data from the updated compressor - performance and compression ratio are not affected - we avoid introducing a new bitstream format In testing over 12.8M real-world files totalling 903 GB, three files were affected by this bug. I also constructed 37M semi-random 64 KB files totalling 2.27 TB, and saw no affected files. Finally I tested over files constructed to contain each of the ~1024 possible bad input sequences; for all of these cases, updated lzo-rle worked correctly. There is no significant impact to performance or compression ratio.

commit 7e5b3c267d256822407a22fdce6afdf9cd13f9fb upstream SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is released for reuse. While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL. The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom. * Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using either mitigations=off or srbds=off. * Export vulnerability status via sysfs * Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

first for high speed devices") commit 3155f4f40811c5d7e3c686215051acf504e05565 upstream. Commit bd0e6c9614b9 ("usb: hub: try old enumeration scheme first for high speed devices") changed the way the hub driver enumerates high-speed devices. Instead of using the "new" enumeration scheme first and switching to the "old" scheme if that doesn't work, we start with the "old" scheme. In theory this is better because the "old" scheme is slightly faster -- it involves resetting the device only once instead of twice. However, for a long time Windows used only the "new" scheme. Zeng Tao said that Windows 8 and later use the "old" scheme for high-speed devices, but apparently there are some devices that don't like it. William Bader reports that the Ricoh webcam built into his Sony Vaio laptop not only doesn't enumerate under the "old" scheme, it gets hung up so badly that it won't then enumerate under the "new" scheme! Only a cold reset will fix it. Therefore we will revert the commit and go back to trying the "new" scheme first for high-speed devices.

[ Upstream commit f9f711efd441ad0d22874be49986d92121862335 ] If the kernel configuration option CONFIG_PCIE_DW_PLAT_HOST is enabled then this can cause the kernel to incorrectly probe the generic designware PCIe platform driver instead of the Tegra194 designware PCIe driver. This causes a boot failure on Tegra194 because the necessary configuration to access the hardware is not performed. The order in which the compatible strings are populated in Device-Tree is not relevant in this case, because the kernel will attempt to probe the device as soon as a driver is loaded and if the generic designware PCIe driver is loaded first, then this driver will be probed first. Therefore, to fix this problem, remove the "snps,dw-pcie" string from the compatible string as we never want this driver to be probe on Tegra194.

2020-04-17ALSA: hda/realtek - Remove now-unnecessary XPS 13 headphone noise fixupsThomas Hebb
commit f36938aa7440f46a0a365f1cfde5f5985af2bef3 upstream. patch_realtek.c has historically failed to properly configure the PC Beep Hidden Register for the ALC256 codec (among others). Depending on your kernel version, symptoms of this misconfiguration can range from chassis noise, picked up by a poorly-shielded PCBEEP trace, getting amplified and played on your internal speaker and/or headphones to loud feedback, which responds to the "Headphone Mic Boost" ALSA control, getting played through your headphones. For details of the problem, see the patch in this series titled "ALSA: hda/realtek - Set principled PC Beep configuration for ALC256", which fixes the configuration. These symptoms have been most noticed on the Dell XPS 13 9350 and 9360, popular laptops that use the ALC256. As a result, several model-specific fixups have been introduced to try and fix the problem, the most egregious of which locks the "Headphone Mic Boost" control as a hack to minimize noise from a feedback loop that shouldn't have been there in the first place. Now that the underlying issue has been fixed, remove all these fixups. Remaining fixups needed by the XPS 13 are all picked up by existing pin quirks. This change should, for the XPS 13 9350/9360 - Significantly increase volume and audio quality on headphones - Eliminate headphone popping on suspend/resume - Allow "Headphone Mic Boost" to be set again, making the headphone jack fully usable as a microphone jack too.

2020-04-17ALSA: doc: Document PC Beep Hidden Register on Realtek ALC256Thomas Hebb
commit f128090491c3f5aacef91a863f8c52abf869c436 upstream. This codec (among others) has a hidden set of audio routes, apparently designed to allow PC Beep output without a mixer widget on the output path, which are controlled by an undocumented Realtek vendor register. The default configuration of these routes means that certain inputs aren't accessible, necessitating driver control of the register. However, Realtek has provided no documentation of the register, instead opting to fix issues by providing magic numbers, most of which have been at least somewhat erroneous. These magic numbers then get copied by others into model-specific fixups, leading to a fragmented and buggy set of configurations. To get out of this situation, I've reverse engineered the register by flipping bits and observing how the codec's behavior changes. This commit documents my findings. It does not change any code.

2020-04-01dt-bindings: net: FMan erratum A050385Madalin Bucur
[ Upstream commit 26d5bb9e4c4b541c475751e015072eb2cbf70d15 ] FMAN DMA read or writes under heavy traffic load may cause FMAN internal resource leak; thus stopping further packet processing. The FMAN internal queue can overflow when FMAN splits single read or write transactions into multiple smaller transactions such that more than 17 AXI transactions are in flight from FMAN to interconnect. When the FMAN internal queue overflows, it can stall further packet processing. The issue can occur with any one of the following three conditions: 1. FMAN AXI transaction crosses 4K address boundary (Errata A010022) 2. FMAN DMA address for an AXI transaction is not 16 byte aligned, i.e. the last 4 bits of an address are non-zero 3. Scatter Gather (SG) frames have more than one SG buffer in the SG list and any one of the buffers, except the last buffer in the SG list has data size that is not a multiple of 16 bytes, i.e., other than 16, 32, 48, 64, etc. With any one of the above three conditions present, there is likelihood of stalled FMAN packet processing, especially under stress with multiple ports injecting line-rate traffic. To avoid situations that stall FMAN packet processing, all of the above three conditions must be avoided; therefore, configure the system with the following rules: 1. Frame buffers must not span a 4KB address boundary, unless the frame start address is 256 byte aligned 2. All FMAN DMA start addresses (for example, BMAN buffer address, FD[address] + FD[offset]) are 16B aligned 3. SG table and buffer addresses are 16B aligned and the size of SG buffers are multiple of 16 bytes, except for the last SG buffer that can be of any size. Additional workaround notes: - Address alignment of 64 bytes is recommended for maximally efficient system bus transactions (although 16 byte alignment is sufficient to avoid the stall condition) - To support frame sizes that are larger than 4K bytes, there are two options: 1. Large single buffer frames that span a 4KB page boundary can be converted into SG frames to avoid transaction splits at the 4KB boundary, 2. Align the large single buffer to 256B address boundaries, ensure that the frame address plus offset is 256B aligned. - If software generated SG frames have buffers that are unaligned and with random non-multiple of 16 byte lengths, before transmitting such frames via FMAN, frames will need to be copied into a new single buffer or multiple buffer SG frame that is compliant with the three rules listed above.

2020-03-25modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers lastJessica Yu
commit 5190044c2965514a973184ca68ef5fad57a24670 upstream. In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc, symbol, module). In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf44), which is over a decade ago now. Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next delimiter or end of line will follow.

commit d9a9f4849fe0c9d560851ab22a85a666cddfdd24 upstream. several iterations of ->atomic_open() calling conventions ago, we used to need fput() if ->atomic_open() failed at some point after successful finish_open(). Now (since 2016) it's not needed - struct file carries enough state to make fput() work regardless of the point in struct file lifecycle and discarding it on failure exits in open() got unified. Unfortunately, I'd missed the fact that we had an instance of ->atomic_open() (cifs one) that used to need that fput(), as well as the stale comment in finish_open() demanding such late failure handling. Trivially fixed...

2020-02-28mm: Avoid creating virtual address aliases in brk()/mmap()/mremap()Catalin Marinas
commit dcde237319e626d1ec3c9d8b7613032f0fd4663a upstream. Currently the arm64 kernel ignores the top address byte passed to brk(), mmap() and mremap(). When the user is not aware of the 56-bit address limit or relies on the kernel to return an error, untagging such pointers has the potential to create address aliases in user-space. Passing a tagged address to munmap(), madvise() is permitted since the tagged pointer is expected to be inside an existing mapping. The current behaviour breaks the existing glibc malloc() implementation which relies on brk() with an address beyond 56-bit to be rejected by the kernel. Remove untagging in the above functions by partially reverting commit ce18d171cb73 ("mm: untag user pointers in mmap/munmap/mremap/brk"). In addition, update the arm64 tagged-address-abi.rst document accordingly.

2020-01-04dt-bindings: Improve validation build error handlingRob Herring
[ Upstream commit 93512dad334deb444619505f1fbb761156f7471b ] Schema errors can cause make to exit before useful information is printed. This leaves developers wondering what's wrong. It can be overcome passing '-k' to make, but that's not an obvious solution. There's 2 scenarios where this happens. When using DT_SCHEMA_FILES to validate with a single schema, any error in the schema results in processed-schema.yaml being empty causing a make error. The result is the specific errors in the schema are never shown because processed-schema.yaml is the first target built. Simply making processed-schema.yaml last in extra-y ensures the full schema validation with detailed error messages happen first. The 2nd problem is while schema errors are ignored for processed-schema.yaml, full validation of the schema still runs in parallel and any schema validation errors will still stop the build when running validation of dts files. The fix is to not add the schema examples to extra-y in this case. This means 'dtbs_check' is no longer a superset of 'dt_binding_check'. Update the documentation to make this clear.

commit 64870ed1b12e235cfca3f6c6da75b542c973ff78 upstream. For MDS vulnerable processors with TSX support, enabling either MDS or TAA mitigations will enable the use of VERW to flush internal processor buffers at the right code path. IOW, they are either both mitigated or both not. However, if the command line options are inconsistent, the vulnerabilites sysfs files may not report the mitigation status correctly. For example, with only the "mds=off" option: vulnerabilities/mds:Vulnerable; SMT vulnerable vulnerabilities/tsx_async_abort:Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers; SMT vulnerable The mds vulnerabilities file has wrong status in this case. Similarly, the taa vulnerability file will be wrong with mds mitigation on, but taa off. Change taa_select_mitigation() to sync up the two mitigation status and have them turned off if both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off" are present. Update documentation to emphasize the fact that both "mds=off" and "tsx_async_abort=off" have to be specified together for processors that are affected by both TAA and MDS to be effective.

2019-11-29ath10k: Fix HOST capability QMI incompatibilityBjorn Andersson
commit 7165ef890a4c44cf16db66b82fd78448f4bde6ba upstream. The introduction of 768ec4c012ac ("ath10k: update HOST capability QMI message") served the purpose of supporting the new and extended HOST capability QMI message. But while the new message adds a slew of optional members it changes the data type of the "daemon_support" member, which means that older versions of the firmware will fail to decode the incoming request message. There is no way to detect this breakage from Linux and there's no way to recover from sending the wrong message (i.e. we can't just try one format and then fallback to the other), so a quirk is introduced in DeviceTree to indicate to the driver that the firmware requires the 8bit version of this message.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 TSX Async Abort and iTLB Multihit mitigations from Thomas Gleixner: "The performance deterioration departement is not proud at all of presenting the seventh installment of speculation mitigations and hardware misfeature workarounds: 1) TSX Async Abort (TAA) - 'The Annoying Affair' TAA is a hardware vulnerability that allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in various CPU internal buffers by using asynchronous aborts within an Intel TSX transactional region. The mitigation depends on a microcode update providing a new MSR which allows to disable TSX in the CPU. CPUs which have no microcode update can be mitigated by disabling TSX in the BIOS if the BIOS provides a tunable. Newer CPUs will have a bit set which indicates that the CPU is not vulnerable, but the MSR to disable TSX will be available nevertheless as it is an architected MSR. That means the kernel provides the ability to disable TSX on the kernel command line, which is useful as TSX is a truly useful mechanism to accelerate side channel attacks of all sorts. 2) iITLB Multihit (NX) - 'No eXcuses' iTLB Multihit is an erratum where some Intel processors may incur a machine check error, possibly resulting in an unrecoverable CPU lockup, when an instruction fetch hits multiple entries in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is changed along with either the physical address or cache type. A malicious guest running on a virtualized system can exploit this erratum to perform a denial of service attack. The workaround is that KVM marks huge pages in the extended page tables as not executable (NX). If the guest attempts to execute in such a page, the page is broken down into 4k pages which are marked executable. The workaround comes with a mechanism to recover these shattered huge pages over time. Both issues come with full documentation in the hardware vulnerabilities section of the Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide. Thanks to all patch authors and reviewers who had the extraordinary priviledge to be exposed to this nuisance.
