commit 11b7e154b132232535befe51c55db048069c8461 upstream.

When we merge two contiguous partitions whose signatures are marked
NVRAM_SIG_FREE, We need update prev's length and checksum, then write it
to nvram, not cur's. So lets fix this mistake now.

Also use memset instead of strncpy to set the partition's name. It's
more readable if we want to fill up with duplicate chars .

commit 04fec21c06e35b169a83e75a84a015ab4606bf5e upstream.

eeh_pe_bus_get() can return NULL if a PCI bus isn't found for a given PE.
Some callers don't check this, and can cause a null pointer dereference
under certain circumstances.

Fix this by checking NULL everywhere eeh_pe_bus_get() is called.

commit d2cf909cda5f8c5609cb7ed6cda816c3e15528c7 upstream.

If a cxl adapter faults on an invalid address for a kernel context, we
may enter copro_calculate_slb() with a NULL mm pointer (kernel
context) and an effective address which looks like a user
address. Which will cause a crash when dereferencing mm. It is clearly
an AFU bug, but there's no reason to crash either. So return an error,
so that cxl can ack the interrupt with an address error.

commit 05af40e885955065aee8bb7425058eb3e1adca08 upstream.

This commit fixes a stack corruption in the pseries specific code dealing
with the huge pages.

In __pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() the buffer used to pass arguments
to the hypervisor is not large enough. This leads to a stack corruption
where a previously saved register could be corrupted leading to unexpected
result in the caller, like the following panic:

Most of the time, the bug is surfacing in a caller up in the stack from
__pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() which is quite confusing.

This bug is pending since v3.11 but was hidden if a caller of the
caller of __pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() has pushed the corruped
register (r18 in this case) in the stack and is not using it until
restoring it. GCC 6.2.0 seems to raise it more frequently.

This commit also change the definition of the parameter buffer in
pSeries_lpar_flush_hash_range() to rely on the global define
PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE (no functional change here).

<title>powerpc/64: Fix incorrect return value from __copy_tofrom_user</title>

commit 1a34439e5a0b2235e43f96816dbb15ee1154f656 upstream.

Debugging a data corruption issue with virtio-net/vhost-net led to
the observation that __copy_tofrom_user was occasionally returning
a value 16 larger than it should.  Since the return value from
__copy_tofrom_user is the number of bytes not copied, this means
that __copy_tofrom_user can occasionally return a value larger
than the number of bytes it was asked to copy.  In turn this can
cause higher-level copy functions such as copy_page_to_iter_iovec
to corrupt memory by copying data into the wrong memory locations.

It turns out that the failing case involves a fault on the store
at label 79, and at that point the first unmodified byte of the
destination is at R3 + 16.  Consequently the exception handler
for that store needs to add 16 to R3 before using it to work out
how many bytes were not copied, but in this one case it was not
adding the offset to R3.  To fix it, this moves the label 179 to
the point where we add 16 to R3.  I have checked manually all the
exception handlers for the loads and stores in this code and the
rest of them are correct (it would be excellent to have an
automated test of all the exception cases).

This bug has been present since this code was initially
committed in May 2002 to Linux version 2.5.20.

<title>powerpc/powernv: Use CPU-endian hub diag-data type in pnv_eeh_get_and_dump_hub_diag()</title>

commit a7032132d7560a8434e1f54b71efd7fa20f073bd upstream.

The hub diag-data type is filled with big-endian data by OPAL call
opal_pci_get_hub_diag_data(). We need convert it to CPU-endian value
before using it. The issue is reported by sparse as pointed by Michael
Ellerman:

  eeh-powernv.c:1309:21: warning: restricted __be16 degrades to integer

This converts hub diag-data type to CPU-endian before using it in
pnv_eeh_get_and_dump_hub_diag().

<title>powerpc/powernv: Pass CPU-endian PE number to opal_pci_eeh_freeze_clear()</title>

commit d63e51b31e0b655ed0f581b8a8fd4c4b4f8d1919 upstream.

The PE number (@frozen_pe_no), filled by opal_pci_next_error() is in
big-endian format. It should be converted to CPU-endian before it is
passed to opal_pci_eeh_freeze_clear() when clearing the frozen state if
the PE is invalid one. As Michael Ellerman pointed out, the issue is
also detected by sparse:

  eeh-powernv.c:1541:41: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different base types)

This passes CPU-endian PE number to opal_pci_eeh_freeze_clear() and it
should be part of commit &lt;0f36db77643b&gt; ("powerpc/eeh: Fix wrong printed
PE number"), which was merged to 4.3 kernel.

<title>powerpc/vdso64: Use double word compare on pointers</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 5045ea37377ce8cca6890d32b127ad6770e6dce5 upstream.

__kernel_get_syscall_map() and __kernel_clock_getres() use cmpli to
check if the passed in pointer is non zero. cmpli maps to a 32 bit
compare on binutils, so we ignore the top 32 bits.

A simple test case can be created by passing in a bogus pointer with
the bottom 32 bits clear. Using a clk_id that is handled by the VDSO,
then one that is handled by the kernel shows the problem:

  printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_REALTIME, (void *)0x100000000));
  printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, (void *)0x100000000));

And we get:

  0
  -1

The bigger issue is if we pass a valid pointer with the bottom 32 bits
clear, in this case we will return success but won't write any data
to the pointer.

I stumbled across this issue because the LLVM integrated assembler
doesn't accept cmpli with 3 arguments. Fix this by converting them to
cmpldi.

commit ac0e89bb4744d3882ccd275f2416d9ce22f4e1e7 upstream.

We use logical negate where bitwise negate was intended.  It means that
we never return -EINVAL here.
