PATCH 1/16 ALSA: sis7019 - give slow codecs more time to reset

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Dillow <[email protected]>

commit fc084e0b930d546872ab23667052499f7daf0fed upstream.

There are some AC97 codec and board combinations that have been observed to take a very long time to respond after the cold reset has completed. In one case, more than 350 ms was required. To allow users to have sound on those platforms, we'll wait up to 500ms for the codec to become ready.

As a board may have multiple codecs, with some faster than others to reset, we add a module parameter to inform the driver which codecs should be present.

PATCH 2/16 ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix Oops in alc_mux_select()

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <[email protected]>

commit cce4aa378a049f4275416ee6302dd24f37b289df upstream.

When no imux is available (e.g. a single capture source), alc_auto_init_input_src() may trigger an Oops due to the access to -1. Add a proper zero-check to avoid it.

PATCH 3/16 ARM: davinci: dm646x evm: wrong register used in setup_vpif_input_channel_mode

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hans Verkuil <[email protected]>

commit 83713fc9373be2e943f82e9d36213708c6b0050e upstream.

The function setup_vpif_input_channel_mode() used the VSCLKDIS register instead of VIDCLKCTL. This meant that when in HD mode videoport channel 0 used a different clock from channel 1.

Clearly a copy-and-paste error.

PATCH 5/16 oprofile: Fix locking dependency in sync_start()

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Robert Richter <[email protected]>

commit 130c5ce716c9bfd1c2a2ec840a746eb7ff9ce1e6 upstream.

This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.

The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier) .rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify() is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock is already released.

However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start() did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No need to protect this with the mutex.

So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:

750d857 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs

which introduced the locking dependency.

PATCH 6/16 percpu: fix chunk range calculation

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <[email protected]>

commit a855b84c3d8c73220d4d3cd392a7bee7c83de70e upstream.

Percpu allocator recorded the cpus which map to the first and last units in pcpu_first/last_unit_cpu respectively and used them to determine the address range of a chunk - e.g. it assumed that the first unit has the lowest address in a chunk while the last unit has the highest address.

This simply isn't true. Groups in a chunk can have arbitrary positive or negative offsets from the previous one and there is no guarantee that the first unit occupies the lowest offset while the last one the highest.

Fix it by actually comparing unit offsets to determine cpus occupying the lowest and highest offsets. Also, rename pcu_first/last_unit_cpu to pcpu_low/high_unit_cpu to avoid confusion.

The chunk address range is used to flush cache on vmalloc area map/unmap and decide whether a given address is in the first chunk by per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() and the bug was discovered by invalid per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() translation for crash_note.

Kudos to Dave Young for tracking down the problem.

PATCH 7/16 xfrm: Fix key lengths for rfc3686(ctr(aes))

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tushar Gohad <[email protected]>

commit 4203223a1aed862b4445fdcd260d6139603a51d9 upstream.

Fix the min and max bit lengths for AES-CTR (RFC3686) keys. The number of bits in key spec is the key length (128/256) plus 32 bits of nonce.

This change takes care of the "Invalid key length" errors reported by setkey when specifying 288 bit keys for aes-ctr.

PATCH 8/16 linux/log2.h: Fix rounddown_pow_of_two(1)

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>

commit 13c07b0286d340275f2d97adf085cecda37ede37 upstream.

Exactly like roundup_pow_of_two(1), the rounddown version was buggy for the case of a compile-time constant '1' argument. Probably because it originated from the same code, sharing history with the roundup version from before the bugfix (for that one, see commit 1a06a52ee1b0: "Fix roundup_pow_of_two(1)").

However, unlike the roundup version, the fix for rounddown is to just remove the broken special case entirely. It's simply not needed - the generic code

    1UL << ilog2(n)

does the right thing for the constant '1' argment too. The only reason roundup needed that special case was because rounding up does so by subtracting one from the argument (and then adding one to the result) causing the obvious problems with "ilog2(0)".

But rounddown doesn't do any of that, since ilog2() naturally truncates (ie "rounds down") to the right rounded down value. And without the ilog2(0) case, there's no reason for the special case that had the wrong value.

tl;dr: rounddown_pow_of_two(1) should be 1, not 0.

PATCH 9/16 jbd/jbd2: validate sb->s_first in journal_get_superblock()

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eryu Guan <[email protected]>

commit 8762202dd0d6e46854f786bdb6fb3780a1625efe upstream.

I hit a J_ASSERT(blocknr != 0) failure in cleanup_journal_tail() when mounting a fsfuzzed ext3 image. It turns out that the corrupted ext3 image has s_first = 0 in journal superblock, and the 0 is passed to journal->j_head in journal_reset(), then to blocknr in cleanup_journal_tail(), in the end the J_ASSERT failed.

So validate s_first after reading journal superblock from disk in journal_get_superblock() to ensure s_first is valid.

The following script could reproduce it:

fstype=ext3
blocksize=1024
img=$fstype.img
offset=0
found=0
magic="c0 3b 39 98"

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img bs=1M count=8
mkfs -t $fstype -b $blocksize -F $img
filesize=stat -c %s $img
while [ $offset -lt $filesize ]
do
if od -j $offset -N 4 -t x1 $img | grep -i "$magic";then
echo "Found journal: $offset"
found=1
break
fi
offset=echo "$offset+$blocksize" | bc
done

if [ $found -ne 1 ];then
echo "Magic \"$magic\" not found"
exit 1
fi

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img seek=$(($offset+23)) conv=notrunc bs=1 count=1

mkdir -p ./mnt
mount -o loop $img ./mnt

commit 1a51410abe7d0ee4b1d112780f46df87d3621043 upstream.

Ok, this isn't optimal, since it means that 'iotop' needs admin capabilities, and we may have to work on this some more. But at the same time it is very much not acceptable to let anybody just read anybody elses IO statistics quite at this level.

Use of the GENL_ADMIN_PERM suggested by Johannes Berg as an alternative to checking the capabilities by hand.

PATCH 11/16 hfs: fix hfs_find_init() sb->ext_tree NULL ptr oops

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Phillip Lougher <[email protected]>

commit 434a964daa14b9db083ce20404a4a2add54d037a upstream.

Clement Lecigne reports a filesystem which causes a kernel oops in hfs_find_init() trying to dereference sb->ext_tree which is NULL.

This proves to be because the filesystem has a corrupted MDB extent record, where the extents file does not fit into the first three extents in the file record (the first blocks).

In hfs_get_block() when looking up the blocks for the extent file (HFS_EXT_CNID), it fails the first blocks special case, and falls through to the extent code (which ultimately calls hfs_find_init()) which is in the process of being initialised.

Hfs avoids this scenario by always having the extents b-tree fitting into the first blocks (the extents B-tree can't have overflow extents).

The fix is to check at mount time that the B-tree fits into first blocks, i.e. fail if HFS_I(inode)->alloc_blocks >= HFS_I(inode)->first_blocks

Note, the existing commit 47f365eb57573 ("hfs: fix oops on mount with corrupted btree extent records") becomes subsumed into this as a special case, but only for the extents B-tree (HFS_EXT_CNID), it is perfectly acceptable for the catalog B-Tree file to grow beyond three extents, with the remaining extent descriptors in the extents overfow.

This fixes CVE-2011-2203

PATCH 3/3 oprofile, x86: Fix crash when unloading module (timer mode)

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Robert Richter <[email protected]>

Based on 97f7f81 oprofile, x86: Fix crash when unloading module (nmi timer mode) upstream.

Fix for stable kernels v2.6.28.y to v2.6.34.y. This patch is for .32.

Oprofile crashs while unlaoding modules and if in timer mode. Timer mode is the fallback if the architectural initialization fails. The pointer variable model is then used uninitialzied during exit causing a NULL pointer dereference.

It can be triggered with kernel parameters oprofile.timer=1 nolapic used. Happens esp. in virtual machine environments.

oprofile: using timer interrupt.

PATCH 15/16 ext4: avoid hangs in ext4_da_should_update_i_disksize()

In reply to Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrea Arcangeli <[email protected]>

commit ea51d132dbf9b00063169c1159bee253d9649224 upstream.

If the pte mapping in generic_perform_write() is unmapped between iov_iter_fault_in_readable() and iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(), the "copied" parameter to ->end_write can be zero. ext4 couldn't cope with it with delayed allocations enabled. This skips the i_disksize enlargement logic if copied is zero and no new data was appeneded to the inode.

This is 100% reproducible with some autonuma development code tuned in a very aggressive manner (not normal way even for knumad) which does "exotic" changes to the ptes. It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would ignore the young bits in the ptes.
