commit e6d701dca9893990d999fd145e3e07223c002b06 upstream.

When running a kernel with Clang's Control Flow Integrity implemented,
there is a violation that happens when accessing
/sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile:

$ cat /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile

When /sys/firmware/acpi/pm_profile is read, sysfs_kf_seq_show is called,
which in turn calls kobj_attr_show, which gets the -&gt;show callback
member by calling container_of on attr (casting it to struct
kobj_attribute) then calls it.

There is a CFI violation because pm_profile_attr is of type
struct device_attribute but kobj_attr_show calls -&gt;show expecting it
to be from struct kobj_attribute. CFI checking ensures that function
pointer types match when doing indirect calls. Fix pm_profile_attr to
be defined in terms of kobj_attribute so there is no violation or
mismatch.

commit 6e6c25283dff866308c87b49434c7dbad4774cc0 upstream.

kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
Thus, when kobject_init_and_add() returns an error,
kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the kobject.

[ Upstream commit 0f27cff8597d86f881ea8274b49b63b678c14a3c ]

The acpi_mask_gpe= kernel parameter documentation states that the range
of mask is 128 GPEs (0x00 to 0x7F).  The acpi_masked_gpes mask is a u64 so
only 64 GPEs (0x00 to 0x3F) can really be masked.

Use a bitmap of size 0xFF instead of a u64 for the GPE mask so 256
GPEs can be masked.

[ Upstream commit 9c4aa1eecb48cfac18ed5e3aca9d9ae58fbafc11 ]

Sometimes, the users may require a quirk to be provided from ACPI subsystem
core to prevent a GPE from flooding.
Normally, if a GPE cannot be dispatched, ACPICA core automatically prevents
the GPE from firing. But there are cases the GPE is dispatched by _Lxx/_Exx
provided via AML table, and OSPM is lacking of the knowledge to get
_Lxx/_Exx correctly executed to handle the GPE, thus the GPE flooding may
still occur.

The existing quirk mechanism can be enabled/disabled using the following
commands to prevent such kind of GPE flooding during runtime:
 # echo mask &gt; /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
 # echo unmask &gt; /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
To avoid GPE flooding during boot, we need a boot stage mechanism.

This patch provides such a boot stage quirk mechanism to stop this kind of
GPE flooding. This patch doesn't fix any feature gap but since the new
feature gaps could be found in the future endlessly, and can disappear if
the feature gaps are filled, providing a boot parameter rather than a DMI
table should suffice.

This patch cleans up sysfs table signature handling code:

 1. Convert the signature handling code to use the ACPICA APIs to
    benefit from the future improvements of the APIs.

 2. Add 'filename' attribute in order to handle both BE/LE name tags.

 3. Add instance check in order to avoid the possible buffer overflow
    related to the table file name.

OEM tables can be installed via RSDT/XSDT, in this case, they have already
been created under /sys/firmware/acpi/tables.

For this kind of tables, normally LoadTable opcode will be executed to load
them. If LoadTable opcode is executed after acpi_sysfs_init(),
acpi_sysfs_table_handler() will be invoked, thus a redundant table file
will be created under /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/dynamic. Then running
"acpidump" on such platform results in an error, complaining blank empty
table (see Link 1 below).

The bug can be reproduced by customizing an OEM1 table, allowing it to be
overridden via 'table_sigs' (drivers/acpi/tables.c), adding the following
code to the customized DSDT to load it:

  Name (OEMH, Zero)
  Name (OEMF, One)
  If (LEqual (OEMF, One)) {
      Store (LoadTable ("OEM1", "Intel", "Test"), OEMH)
      Store (Zero, OEMF)
  }

In order to make sure that the OEM1 table is installed after
acpi_sysfs_init(), acpi_sysfs_init() can be moved before invoking
acpi_load_tables(). Then the following command execution result can be
seen:
 # acpidump &gt; acpidump.txt
 Could not read table header: /sysfs/firmware/acpi/tables/dynamic/OEM12
 Could not get ACPI table at index 17, AE_BAD_HEADER

<title>ACPI / sysfs: Use new GPE masking mechanism in GPE interface</title>

<id>18864cc4892d207bf8bb81898f5dc7fe9e66d6f0</id>
<content type='text'>
Now GPE can be masked via the new acpi_mask_gpe() API and this patch
modifies /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpexx to use this new facility.

Writes "mask/unmask" to this file now invokes acpi_mask_gpe().

Reads from this file now returns new "EN/STS" when the corresponding GPE
hardware register's EN/STS bits are flagged, and new "masked/unmasked"
attribute to indicate the status of the masking mechanism.

<title>ACPI: add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers</title>

<id>68bdb6773289f8c9a36633f9f6525b127c093258</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers to allow subsystems
to react to changes in the ACPI tables that happen after the initial
enumeration. This is similar with the way dynamic device tree
notifications work.

The reconfigure notifications supported for now are device add and
device remove.

Since ACPICA allows only one table notification handler, this patch
makes the table notifier function generic and moves it out of the
sysfs specific code.

The problem with ornamental, do-nothing gotos is that they lead to
"forgot to set the error code" bugs.  We should be returning -EINVAL
here but we don't.  It leads to an uninitalized variable in
counter_show():

    drivers/acpi/sysfs.c:603 counter_show()
    error: uninitialized symbol 'status'.

Fixes: 1c8fce27e275 (ACPI: introduce drivers/acpi/sysfs.c)

Since kobject_create_and_add() can fail under memory pressure,
its return value needs to be checked against NULL before passing
it to sysfs_create_file().
