commit 6c4e79d99e6f42b79040f1a33cd4018f5425030b upstream.

The size of the buffers for storing context's and sessions can vary from
arch to arch as PAGE_SIZE can be anything between 4 kB and 256 kB (the
maximum for PPC64). Define a fixed buffer size set to 16 kB. This should be
enough for most use with three handles (that is how many we allow at the
moment). Parametrize the buffer size while doing this, so that it is easier
to revisit this later on if required.

[ Upstream commit b975abbd382fe442713a4c233549abb90e57c22b ]

In intel_gtt_setup_scratch_page(), pointer "page" is not released if
pci_dma_mapping_error() return an error, leading to a memory leak on
module initialisation failure.  Simply fix this issue by freeing "page"
before return.

<title>random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity</title>

commit f227e3ec3b5cad859ad15666874405e8c1bbc1d4 upstream.

This modifies the first 32 bits out of the 128 bits of a random CPU's
net_rand_state on interrupt or CPU activity to complicate remote
observations that could lead to guessing the network RNG's internal
state.

Note that depending on some network devices' interrupt rate moderation
or binding, this re-seeding might happen on every packet or even almost
never.

In addition, with NOHZ some CPUs might not even get timer interrupts,
leaving their local state rarely updated, while they are running
networked processes making use of the random state.  For this reason, we
also perform this update in update_process_times() in order to at least
update the state when there is user or system activity, since it's the
only case we care about.

commit b34e7e298d7a5ed76b3aa327c240c29f1ef6dd22 upstream.

WRITE_ONCE() isn't the correct way to publish a pointer to a data
structure, since it doesn't include a write memory barrier.  Therefore
other tasks may see that the pointer has been set but not see that the
pointed-to memory has finished being initialized yet.  Instead a
primitive with "release" semantics is needed.

Use smp_store_release() for this.

The use of READ_ONCE() on the read side is still potentially correct if
there's no control dependency, i.e. if all memory being "published" is
transitively reachable via the pointer itself.  But this pairing is
somewhat confusing and error-prone.  So just upgrade the read side to
smp_load_acquire() so that it clearly pairs with smp_store_release().

commit 897c44f0bae574c5fb318c759b060bebf9dd6013 upstream.

rproc_serial_id_table lacks an exposure to module devicetable, so
when remoteproc firmware requests VIRTIO_ID_RPROC_SERIAL, no uevent
is generated and no module autoloading occurs.
Add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() annotation and move the existing
one for VIRTIO_ID_CONSOLE right to the table itself.

commit 7862840219058436b80029a0263fd1ef065fb1b3 upstream.

It has been reported that some TIS based TPMs are giving unexpected
errors when using the O_NONBLOCK path of the TPM device. The problem
is that some TPMs don't like it when you get and then relinquish a
locality (as the tpm_try_get_ops()/tpm_put_ops() pair does) without
sending a command.  This currently happens all the time in the
O_NONBLOCK write path. Fix this by moving the tpm_try_get_ops()
further down the code to after the O_NONBLOCK determination is made.
This is safe because the priv-&gt;buffer_mutex still protects the priv
state being modified.

pm_runtime_get_sync() increments the runtime PM usage counter even
the call returns an error code. Thus a pairing decrement is needed
on the error handling path to keep the counter balanced.

pm_runtime_get_sync() increments the runtime PM usage counter even
the call returns an error code. Thus a pairing decrement is needed
on the error handling path to keep the counter balanced.

[ Upstream commit 3234ac664a870e6ea69ae3a57d824cd7edbeacc5 ]

Close the hole of holding a mapping over kernel driver takeover event of
a given address range.

Commit 90a545e98126 ("restrict /dev/mem to idle io memory ranges")
introduced CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM with the goal of protecting the
kernel against scenarios where a /dev/mem user tramples memory that a
kernel driver owns. However, this protection only prevents *new* read(),
write() and mmap() requests. Established mappings prior to the driver
calling request_mem_region() are left alone.

Especially with persistent memory, and the core kernel metadata that is
stored there, there are plentiful scenarios for a /dev/mem user to
violate the expectations of the driver and cause amplified damage.

Teach request_mem_region() to find and shoot down active /dev/mem
mappings that it believes it has successfully claimed for the exclusive
use of the driver. Effectively a driver call to request_mem_region()
becomes a hole-punch on the /dev/mem device.

The typical usage of unmap_mapping_range() is part of
truncate_pagecache() to punch a hole in a file, but in this case the
implementation is only doing the "first half" of a hole punch. Namely it
is just evacuating current established mappings of the "hole", and it
relies on the fact that /dev/mem establishes mappings in terms of
absolute physical address offsets. Once existing mmap users are
invalidated they can attempt to re-establish the mapping, or attempt to
continue issuing read(2) / write(2) to the invalidated extent, but they
will then be subject to the CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM checking that can
block those subsequent accesses.
