commit 06cf35f903aa6da0cc8d9f81e9bcd1f7e1b534bb upstream.

Some AMD CS553x devices have read-only BARs because of a firmware or
hardware defect.  There's a workaround in quirk_cs5536_vsa(), but it no
longer works after 36e8164882ca ("PCI: Restore detection of read-only
BARs").  Prior to 36e8164882ca, we filled in res-&gt;start; afterwards we
leave it zeroed out.  The quirk only updated the size, so the driver tried
to use a region starting at zero, which didn't work.

Expand quirk_cs5536_vsa() to read the base addresses from the BARs and
hard-code the sizes.

On Nix's system BAR 2's read-only value is 0x6200.  Prior to 36e8164882ca,
we interpret that as a 512-byte BAR based on the lowest-order bit set.  Per
datasheet sec 5.6.1, that BAR (MFGPT) requires only 64 bytes; use that to
avoid clearing any address bits if a platform uses only 64-byte alignment.

[bhelgaas: changelog, reduce BAR 2 size to 64]

commit 9ce357795ef208faa0d59894d9d119a7434e37f3 upstream.

Fixed commit added from64to32 under _#ifndef do_csum_ but used it
under _#ifndef csum_tcpudp_nofold_, breaking some builds (Fengguang's
robot reported TILEGX's). Move from64to32 under the latter.

<title>mm: fix anon_vma-&gt;degree underflow in anon_vma endless growing prevention</title>

commit 3fe89b3e2a7bbf3e97657104b9b33a9d81b950b3 upstream.

I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after
upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither.

So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208e662 ("mm:
prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that
unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst-&gt;anon_vma-&gt;degree
in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure.  If dst-&gt;anon_vma is not
NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in
unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of
another call to unlink_anon_vmas().  That's how "kernel BUG at
mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me.

This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst-&gt;anon_vma when allocation
fails.  It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst-&gt;anon_vma
because dst-&gt;anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone()
fails.  Besides, callers don't care dst-&gt;anon_vma in such case neither.

Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as
anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

commit 91edd096e224941131f896b86838b1e59553696a upstream.

Commit db31c55a6fb2 (net: clamp -&gt;msg_namelen instead of returning an
error) introduced the clamping of msg_namelen when the unsigned value
was larger than sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage). This caused a
msg_namelen of -1 to be valid. The native code was subsequently fixed by
commit dbb490b96584 (net: socket: error on a negative msg_namelen).

In addition, the native code sets msg_namelen to 0 when msg_name is
NULL. This was done in commit (6a2a2b3ae075 net:socket: set msg_namelen
to 0 if msg_name is passed as NULL in msghdr struct from userland) and
subsequently updated by 08adb7dabd48 (fold verify_iovec() into
copy_msghdr_from_user()).

This patch brings the get_compat_msghdr() in line with
copy_msghdr_from_user().

<title>nilfs2: fix deadlock of segment constructor during recovery</title>

<id>a4cb7e348f461ce380708623f82f3020e6b89e5b</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 283ee1482f349d6c0c09dfb725db5880afc56813 upstream.

According to a report from Yuxuan Shui, nilfs2 in kernel 3.19 got stuck
during recovery at mount time.  The code path that caused the deadlock was
as follows:

  nilfs_fill_super()
    load_nilfs()
      nilfs_salvage_orphan_logs()
        * Do roll-forwarding, attach segment constructor for recovery,
          and kick it.

        nilfs_segctor_thread()
          nilfs_segctor_thread_construct()
           * A lock is held with nilfs_transaction_lock()
             nilfs_segctor_do_construct()
               nilfs_segctor_drop_written_files()
                 iput()
                   iput_final()
                     write_inode_now()
                       writeback_single_inode()
                         __writeback_single_inode()
                           do_writepages()
                             nilfs_writepage()
                               nilfs_construct_dsync_segment()
                                 nilfs_transaction_lock() --&gt; deadlock

This can happen if commit 7ef3ff2fea8b ("nilfs2: fix deadlock of segment
constructor over I_SYNC flag") is applied and roll-forward recovery was
performed at mount time.  The roll-forward recovery can happen if datasync
write is done and the file system crashes immediately after that.  For
instance, we can reproduce the issue with the following steps:

 &lt; nilfs2 is mounted on /nilfs (device: /dev/sdb1) &gt;
 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/nilfs/test bs=4k count=1 &amp;&amp; sync
 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/nilfs/test conv=notrunc oflag=dsync bs=4k
 count=1 &amp;&amp; reboot -nfh
 &lt; the system will immediately reboot &gt;
 # mount -t nilfs2 /dev/sdb1 /nilfs

The deadlock occurs because iput() can run segment constructor through
writeback_single_inode() if MS_ACTIVE flag is not set on sb-&gt;s_flags.  The
above commit changed segment constructor so that it calls iput()
asynchronously for inodes with i_nlink == 0, but that change was
imperfect.

This fixes the another deadlock by deferring iput() in segment constructor
even for the case that mount is not finished, that is, for the case that
MS_ACTIVE flag is not set.

commit 9d239d353c319f9ff884c287ce47feb7cdf60ddc upstream.

The commit d297933cc7fc (spi: dw: Fix detecting FIFO depth) tries to fix the
logic of the FIFO detection based on the description on the comments. However,
there is a slight difference between numbers in TX Level and TX FIFO size.

So, by specification the FIFO size would be in a range 2-256 bytes. From TX
Level prospective it means we can set threshold in the range 0-(FIFO size - 1)
bytes. Hence there are currently two issues:
  a) FIFO size 2 bytes is actually skipped since TX Level is 1 bit and could be
     either 0 or 1 byte;
  b) FIFO size is incorrectly decreased by 1 which already done by meaning of
     TX Level register.

This patch fixes it eventually right.

<title>ntp: Fixup adjtimex freq validation on 32-bit systems</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 29183a70b0b828500816bd794b3fe192fce89f73 upstream.

Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid
potential multiplication overflows were added in commit
5e5aeb4367b (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values)

Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of
LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being
much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives
resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/
EINVAL.

ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so
the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time
sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by
the bug.

See bugs:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074

This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for
clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled
on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always
larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication
overflows aren't possible there.

commit e512d56c799517f33b301d81e9a5e0ebf30c2d1e upstream.

git commit 37f81fa1f63ad38e16125526bb2769ae0ea8d332
"n_tty: do O_ONLCR translation as a single write"
surfaced a bug in the 3215 device driver. In combination this
broke tab expansion for tty ouput.

The cause is an asymmetry in the behaviour of tty3215_ops-&gt;write
vs tty3215_ops-&gt;put_char. The put_char function scans for '\t'
but the write function does not.

As the driver has logic for the '\t' expansion remove XTABS
from c_oflag of the initial termios as well.

<title>x86, cpu, amd: Add workaround for family 16h, erratum 793</title>

commit 3b56496865f9f7d9bcb2f93b44c63f274f08e3b6 upstream.

This adds the workaround for erratum 793 as a precaution in case not
every BIOS implements it.  This addresses CVE-2013-6885.

Erratum text:

[Revision Guide for AMD Family 16h Models 00h-0Fh Processors,
document 51810 Rev. 3.04 November 2013]

793 Specific Combination of Writes to Write Combined Memory Types and
Locked Instructions May Cause Core Hang

Description

Under a highly specific and detailed set of internal timing
conditions, a locked instruction may trigger a timing sequence whereby
the write to a write combined memory type is not flushed, causing the
locked instruction to stall indefinitely.

Potential Effect on System

Processor core hang.

Suggested Workaround

BIOS should set MSR
C001_1020[15] = 1b.

Fix Planned

No fix planned

[ hpa: updated description, fixed typo in MSR name ]
