hwmon: (dell-smm) Cache fan_type() calls and change fan detection

2016-06-23T13:24:23+00:00

On more Dell machines (e.g. Dell Precision M3800) fan_type() call is too
expensive (CPU is too long in SMM mode) and cause kernel to hang. This is
bug in Dell SMM or BIOS.

This patch caches type for each fan (as it should not change) and changes
the way how fan presense is detected. First it try function fan_status()
as was before commit f989e55452c7 ("i8k: Add support for fan labels"). And
if that fails fallback to fan_type(). *_status() functions can fail in case
fan is not currently accessible (e.g. present on GPU which is currently
turned off).

hwmon: (dell-smm) Disallow fan_type() calls on broken machines

2016-06-18T20:03:29+00:00

Some Dell machines have especially broken SMM or BIOS which cause that once
fan_type() is called then CPU fan speed going randomly up and down. And for
fixing this behaviour reboot is required.

So this patch creates fan_type blacklist of affected Dell machines and
disallow fan_type() call on them to prevent that erratic behaviour.

Old blacklist which disabled loading driver on some machines added in
commits a4b45b25f18d ("hwmon: (dell-smm) Blacklist Dell Studio XPS 8100")
and 6220f4ebd7b4 ("hwmon: (dell-smm) Blacklist Dell Studio XPS 8000") were
moved to FAN_TYPE blacklist.

hwmon: (dell-smm) Restrict fan control and serial number to CAP_SYS_ADMIN by default

2016-06-18T19:59:58+00:00

For security reasons ordinary user must not be able to control fan speed
via /proc/i8k by default. Some malicious software running under "nobody"
user could be able to turn fan off and cause HW problems. So this patch
changes default value of "restricted" parameter to 1.

Also restrict reading of DMI_PRODUCT_SERIAL from /proc/i8k via "restricted"
parameter. It is because non root user cannot read DMI_PRODUCT_SERIAL from
sysfs file /sys/class/dmi/id/product_serial.

Old non secure behaviour of file /proc/i8k can be achieved by loading this
module with "restricted" parameter set to 0.

Note that this patch has effects only for kernels compiled with CONFIG_I8K
and only for file /proc/i8k. Hwmon interface provided by this driver was
not changed and root access for setting fan speed was needed also before.

hwmon: (dell-smm) Fail in ioctl I8K_BIOS_VERSION when bios version is not a number

2016-06-18T19:55:20+00:00

ABI of I8K_BIOS_VERSION ioctl can return only number. But new BIOS versions
contain also other characters, which does not fit into that ABI. So in case
of non digit values return -EINVAL.

hwmon: (fam15h_power) Disable preemption when reading registers

2016-06-08T03:11:10+00:00

We need to read a bunch of registers on each compute unit and possibly
on the current CPU too. Disable preemption around it. Otherwise, you
get:

Merge tag 'pwm/for-4.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/thierry.reding/linux-pwm

2016-05-25T17:40:15+00:00

Pull pwm updates from Thierry Reding:
 "This set of changes introduces an atomic API to the PWM subsystem.
  This is influenced by the DRM atomic API that was introduced a while
  back, though it is obviously a lot simpler.  The fundamental idea
  remains the same, though: drivers provide a single callback to
  implement the atomic configuration of a PWM channel.

  As a side-effect the PWM subsystem gains the ability for initial state
  retrieval, so that the logical state mirrors that of the hardware.
  Many use-cases don't care about this, but for others it is essential.

  These new features require changes in all users, which these patches
  take care of.  The core is transitioned to use the atomic callback if
  available and provides a fallback mechanism for other drivers.

  Changes to transition users and drivers to the atomic API are
  postponed to v4.8"
