commit f78bbcae86e676fad9e6c6bb6cd9d9868ba23696 upstream.

When binding the function to usb_configuration, check whether the thread
is running before starting another one.  Without that, when function
instance is added to multiple configurations, fsg_bing starts multiple
threads with all but the latest one being forgotten by the driver.  This
leads to obvious thread leaks, possible lockups when trying to halt the
machine and possible more issues.

This fixes issues with legacy/multi¹ gadget as well as configfs gadgets
when mass_storage function is added to multiple configurations.

This change also simplifies API since the legacy gadgets no longer need
to worry about starting the thread by themselves (which was where bug
in legacy/multi was in the first place).

N.B., this patch doesn’t address adding single mass_storage function
instance to a single configuration twice.  Thankfully, there’s no
legitimate reason for such setup plus, if I’m not mistaken, configfs
gadget doesn’t even allow it to be expressed.

¹ I have no example failure though.  Conclusion that legacy/multi has
  a bug is based purely on me reading the code.

<title>usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix EFAULT generation for async read operations</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 332a5b446b7916d272c2a659a3b20909ce34d2c1 upstream.

In the current implementation functionfs generates a EFAULT for async read
operations if the read buffer size is larger than the URB data size. Since
a application does not necessarily know how much data the host side is
going to send it typically supplies a buffer larger than the actual data,
which will then result in a EFAULT error.

This behaviour was introduced while refactoring the code to use iov_iter
interface in commit c993c39b8639 ("gadget/function/f_fs.c: use put iov_iter
into io_data"). The original code took the minimum over the URB size and
the user buffer size and then attempted to copy that many bytes using
copy_to_user(). If copy_to_user() could not copy all data a EFAULT error
was generated. Restore the original behaviour by only generating a EFAULT
error when the number of bytes copied is not the size of the URB and the
target buffer has not been fully filled.

Commit 342f39a6c8d3 ("usb: gadget: f_fs: fix check in read operation")
already fixed the same problem for the synchronous read path.

When using asynchronous read or write operations on the USB endpoints the
issuer of the IO request is notified by calling the ki_complete() callback
of the submitted kiocb when the URB has been completed.

Calling this ki_complete() callback will free kiocb. Make sure that the
structure is no longer accessed beyond that point, otherwise undefined
behaviour might occur.

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

buflen by default (256) is smaller than wMaxPacketSize (512) in high-speed
devices.

That caused the OUT endpoint to freeze if the host send any data packet of
length greater than 256 bytes.

This is an example dump of what happended on that enpoint:
HOST:   [DATA][Length=260][...]
DEVICE: [NAK]
HOST:   [PING]
DEVICE: [NAK]
HOST:   [PING]
DEVICE: [NAK]
...
HOST:   [PING]
DEVICE: [NAK]

This patch fixes this problem by setting the minimum usb_request's buffer size
for the OUT endpoint as its wMaxPacketSize.

Since f_midi_transmit is called by both ALSA and USB sub-systems, it can
potentially cause a race condition between both calls because f_midi_transmit
is not reentrant nor thread-safe. This is due to an implementation detail that
the transmit function looks for the next available usb request from the fifo
and only enqueues it if there is data to send, otherwise just re-uses it. So,
if both ALSA and USB frameworks calls this function at the same time,
kfifo_seek() will return the same usb_request, which will cause a race
condition.

To solve this problem a syncronization mechanism is necessary. In this case it
is used a spinlock since f_midi_transmit is also called by usb_request-&gt;complete
callback in interrupt context.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "The highlights this round include:

   - Add target_alloc_session() w/ callback helper for doing se_session
     allocation + tag + se_node_acl lookup.  (HCH + nab)

   - Tree-wide fabric driver conversion to use target_alloc_session()

   - Convert sbp-target to use percpu_ida tag pre-allocation, and
     TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF I/O krefs (Chris Boot + nab)

   - Convert usb-gadget to use percpu_ida tag pre-allocation, and
     TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF I/O krefs (Andrzej Pietrasiewicz + nab)

   - Convert xen-scsiback to use percpu_ida tag pre-allocation, and
     TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF I/O krefs (Juergen Gross + nab)

   - Convert tcm_fc to use TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF I/O + TMR krefs

   - Convert ib_srpt to use percpu_ida tag pre-allocation

   - Add DebugFS node for qla2xxx target sess list (Quinn)

   - Rework iser-target connection termination (Jenny + Sagi)

   - Convert iser-target to new CQ API (HCH)

   - Add pass-through WRITE_SAME support for IBLOCK (Mike Christie)

   - Introduce data_bitmap for asynchronous access of data area (Sheng
     Yang + Andy)

   - Fix target_release_cmd_kref shutdown comp leak (Himanshu Madhani)

  Also, there is a separate PULL request coming for cxgb4 NIC driver
  prerequisites for supporting hw iscsi segmentation offload (ISO), that
  will be the base for a number of v4.7 developments involving
  iscsi-target hw offloads"

Pull configfs updates from Christoph Hellwig:

 - A large patch from me to simplify setting up the list of default
   groups by actually implementing it as a list instead of an array.

 - a small Y2083 prep patch from Deepa Dinamani.  Probably doesn't
   matter on it's own, but it seems like he is trying to get rid of all
   CURRENT_TIME uses in file systems, which is a worthwhile goal.

* tag 'configfs-for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/configfs:
  configfs: switch -&gt;default groups to a linked list
  configfs: Replace CURRENT_TIME by current_fs_time()
