commit f9d4d9b5a5ef2f017bc344fb65a58a902517173b upstream.

Discrete TPMs are often connected over slow serial buses which, on
some platforms, can have glitches causing bit flips.  In all the
driver _recv() functions, we need to use a u32 to unmarshal the
response size, otherwise a bit flip of the 31st bit would cause the
expected variable to go negative, which would then try to read a huge
amount of data.  Also sanity check that the expected amount of data is
large enough for the TPM header.

<title>hwrng: exynos - use __maybe_unused to hide pm functions</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b93f342da1766ef1740e6277508329356c4ea48b upstream.

The exynos random driver uses #ifdef to check for CONFIG_PM, but
then uses SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS, which leaves the references out when
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not defined, so we get a warning with
PM=y &amp;&amp; PM_SLEEP=n:

drivers/char/hw_random/exynos-rng.c:166:12: error: 'exynos_rng_suspend' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
drivers/char/hw_random/exynos-rng.c:171:12: error: 'exynos_rng_resume' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

This removes the incorrect #ifdef and instead uses a __maybe_unused
annotation to let the compiler know it can silently drop
the function definition.

commit 1ab87298cb59b649d8d648d25dc15b36ab865f5a upstream.

hwrng kthread can be waiting via hwrng_fillfn for some data from a rng
like virtio-rng:
hwrng           D ffff880093e17798     0   382      2 0x00000000
...
Call Trace:

 [&lt;ffffffff814f4a35&gt;] hwrng_fillfn+0x75/0x130
 [&lt;ffffffff810aa243&gt;] kthread+0xf3/0x110

And when some user program tries to read the /dev node in this state,
we get:
rngd            D ffff880093e17798     0   762      1 0x00000004
...
Call Trace:

 [&lt;ffffffff81231958&gt;] __vfs_read+0x28/0xe0
 [&lt;ffffffff81232393&gt;] vfs_read+0x83/0x130

And this is indeed unkillable. So use mutex_lock_interruptible
instead of mutex_lock in rng_dev_read and exit immediatelly when
interrupted. And possibly return already read data, if any (as POSIX
allows).

v2: use ERESTARTSYS instead of EINTR

commit 39380b80d72723282f0ea1d1bbf2294eae45013e upstream.

Currently it's possible for broken (or malicious) userspace to flood a
kernel log indefinitely with messages a-la

	Program dmidecode tried to access /dev/mem between f0000-&gt;100000

because range_is_allowed() is case of CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM being turned on
dumps this information each and every time devmem_is_allowed() fails.

Reportedly userspace that is able to trigger contignuous flow of these
messages exists.

It would be possible to rate limit this message, but that'd have a
questionable value; the administrator wouldn't get information about all
the failing accessess, so then the information would be both superfluous
and incomplete at the same time :)

Returning EPERM (which is what is actually happening) is enough indication
for userspace what has happened; no need to log this particular error as
some sort of special condition.

<title>ipmi: Stop timers before cleaning up the module</title>

commit 4f7f5551a760eb0124267be65763008169db7087 upstream.

System may crash after unloading ipmi_si.ko module
because a timer may remain and fire after the module cleaned up resources.

cleanup_one_si() contains the following processing.

        /*
         * Make sure that interrupts, the timer and the thread are
         * stopped and will not run again.
         */
        if (to_clean-&gt;irq_cleanup)
                to_clean-&gt;irq_cleanup(to_clean);
        wait_for_timer_and_thread(to_clean);

        /*
         * Timeouts are stopped, now make sure the interrupts are off
         * in the BMC.  Note that timers and CPU interrupts are off,
         * so no need for locks.
         */
        while (to_clean-&gt;curr_msg || (to_clean-&gt;si_state != SI_NORMAL)) {
                poll(to_clean);
                schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1);
        }

si_state changes as following in the while loop calling poll(to_clean).

  SI_GETTING_MESSAGES
    =&gt; SI_CHECKING_ENABLES
     =&gt; SI_SETTING_ENABLES
      =&gt; SI_GETTING_EVENTS
       =&gt; SI_NORMAL

As written in the code comments above,
timers are expected to stop before the polling loop and not to run again.
But the timer is set again in the following process
when si_state becomes SI_SETTING_ENABLES.

  =&gt; poll

For example, hard LOCKUP and panic occurred as following.
smi_timeout was called after smi_event_handler,
kcs_event and hangs at port_inb()
trying to access I/O port after release.

To fix the problem I defined a flag, timer_can_start,

The flag is enabled immediately after initializing the timer
and disabled immediately before waiting for timer deletion.

commit 4f7f5551a760eb0124267be65763008169db7087 upstream.

System may crash after unloading ipmi_si.ko module
because a timer may remain and fire after the module cleaned up resources.

cleanup_one_si() contains the following processing.

        /*
         * Make sure that interrupts, the timer and the thread are
         * stopped and will not run again.
         */
        if (to_clean-&gt;irq_cleanup)
                to_clean-&gt;irq_cleanup(to_clean);
        wait_for_timer_and_thread(to_clean);

        /*
         * Timeouts are stopped, now make sure the interrupts are off
         * in the BMC.  Note that timers and CPU interrupts are off,
         * so no need for locks.
         */
        while (to_clean-&gt;curr_msg || (to_clean-&gt;si_state != SI_NORMAL)) {
                poll(to_clean);
                schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1);
        }

si_state changes as following in the while loop calling poll(to_clean).

  SI_GETTING_MESSAGES
    =&gt; SI_CHECKING_ENABLES
     =&gt; SI_SETTING_ENABLES
      =&gt; SI_GETTING_EVENTS
       =&gt; SI_NORMAL

As written in the code comments above,
timers are expected to stop before the polling loop and not to run again.
But the timer is set again in the following process
when si_state becomes SI_SETTING_ENABLES.

  =&gt; poll
     =&gt; smi_event_handler
       =&gt; handle_transaction_done
          // smi_info-&gt;si_state == SI_SETTING_ENABLES
         =&gt; start_getting_events
           =&gt; start_new_msg
            =&gt; smi_mod_timer
              =&gt; mod_timer

As a result, before the timer set in start_new_msg() expires,
the polling loop may see si_state becoming SI_NORMAL
and the module clean-up finishes.

For example, hard LOCKUP and panic occurred as following.
smi_timeout was called after smi_event_handler,
kcs_event and hangs at port_inb()

commit 392a17b10ec4320d3c0e96e2a23ebaad1123b989 upstream.

When I set the timeout to a specific value such as 500ms, the timeout
event will not happen in time due to the overflow in function
check_msg_timeout:
...
	ent-&gt;timeout -= timeout_period;
	if (ent-&gt;timeout &gt; 0)
		return;
...

The type of timeout_period is long, but ent-&gt;timeout is unsigned long.
This patch makes the type consistent.

commit 15516788e581eb32ec1c50e5f00aba3faf95d817 upstream.

Replace the device number bitmap with IDR. Extend the number of devices we
can create to 64k.
Since an IDR allows us to associate a pointer with an ID, we use this now
to rewrite tpm_chip_find_get() to simply look up the chip pointer by the
given device ID.

Protect the IDR calls with a mutex.

commit 13b47cfcfc60495cde216eef4c01040d76174cbe upstream.

While cleaning up sysfs callback that prints EK we discovered a kernel
memory leak. This commit fixes the issue by zeroing the buffer used for
TPM command/response.

The leak happen when we use either tpm_vtpm_proxy, tpm_ibmvtpm or
xen-tpmfront.
