tpm: Propagate error from tpm_transmit to fix a timeout hang

2012-10-10T16:34:31+00:00

tpm_write calls tpm_transmit without checking the return value and
assigns the return value unconditionally to chip->pending_data, even if
it's an error value.
This causes three bugs.

So if we write to /dev/tpm0 with a tpm_param_size bigger than
TPM_BUFSIZE=0x1000 (e.g. 0x100a)
and a bufsize also bigger than TPM_BUFSIZE (e.g. 0x100a)
tpm_transmit returns -E2BIG which is assigned to chip->pending_data as
-7, but tpm_write returns that TPM_BUFSIZE bytes have been successfully
been written to the TPM, altough this is not true (bug #1).

As we did write more than than TPM_BUFSIZE bytes but tpm_write reports
that only TPM_BUFSIZE bytes have been written the vfs tries to write
the remaining bytes (in this case 10 bytes) to the tpm device driver via
tpm_write which then blocks at

 /* cannot perform a write until the read has cleared
 either via tpm_read or a user_read_timer timeout */
 while (atomic_read(&chip->data_pending) != 0)
	 msleep(TPM_TIMEOUT);

for 60 seconds, since data_pending is -7 and nobody is able to
read it (since tpm_read luckily checks if data_pending is greater than
0) (#bug 2).

After that the remaining bytes are written to the TPM which are
interpreted by the tpm as a normal command. (bug #3)
So if the last bytes of the command stream happen to be a e.g.
tpm_force_clear this gets accidentally sent to the TPM.

This patch fixes all three bugs, by propagating the error code of
tpm_write and returning -E2BIG if the input buffer is too big,
since the response from the tpm for a truncated value is bogus anyway.
Moreover it returns -EBUSY to userspace if there is a response ready to be
read.

driver/char/tpm: fix regression causesd by ppi

2012-10-10T14:50:56+00:00

This patch try to fix the S3 regression https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/5/433,
which includes below line:
[ 1554.684638] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pnp0/00:0c/ppi'

The root cause is that ppi sysfs teardown code is MIA, so while S3 resume,
the ppi kobject will be created again upon existing one.

To make the tear down code simple, change the ppi subfolder creation from
using kobject_create_and_add to just using a named ppi attribute_group. Then
ppi sysfs teardown could be done with a simple sysfs_remove_group call.

Adjusted the name & return type for ppi sysfs init function.

Merge branch 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq

2012-10-02T16:54:49+00:00

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the
     latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
     execution of any previous queueing on return.

   * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
     hotplug handling significantly.

   * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
     hotplug.

  There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
  tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from
  wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them."

Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts
were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new
code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.

Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more.

tpm: fix tpm_acpi sparse warning on different address spaces

2012-09-12T03:18:31+00:00

acpi_os_map_memory expects its return value to be in the __iomem address
space. Tag the variable we're using as such and use memcpy_fromio to
avoid further sparse warnings.

driver: add PPI support in tpm driver

2012-08-22T21:23:42+00:00

The Physical Presence Interface enables the OS and the BIOS to cooperate and
provides a simple and straightforward platform user experience for
administering the TPM without sacrificing security.

V2: separate the patch out in a separate source file,
    add #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI so it compiles out on ppc,
    use standard error instead of ACPI error as return code of show/store fns.
V3: move #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI from .c file to .h file.
V4: move tpm_ppi code from tpm module to tpm_bios module.
V5: modify sys_add_ppi() so that ppi_attr_grp doesn't need to be exported

tpm: Do not dereference NULL pointer if acpi_os_map_memory() fails.

2012-08-22T21:23:34+00:00

In drivers/char/tpm/tpm_acpi.c::read_log() we call
acpi_os_map_memory(). That call may fail for a number of reasons
(invalid address, out of memory etc). If the call fails it returns
NULL and we just pass that to memcpy() unconditionally, which will go
bad when it tries to dereference the pointer.

Unfortunately we just get NULL back, so we can't really tell the user
exactely what went wrong, but we can at least avoid crashing and
return an error (-EIO seemed more generic and more suitable here than
-ENOMEM or something else, so I picked that).
