commit de68bab4fa96014cfaa6fcbcdb9750e32969fb86 upstream.

How it's supposed to work:
--------------------------

USB 2.0 Link PM is a lower power state that some newer USB 2.0 devices
support.  USB 3.0 devices certified by the USB-IF are required to
support it if they are plugged into a USB 2.0 only port, or a USB 2.0
cable is used.  USB 2.0 Link PM requires both a USB device and a host
controller that supports USB 2.0 hardware-enabled LPM.

USB 2.0 Link PM is designed to be enabled once by software, and the host
hardware handles transitions to the L1 state automatically.  The premise
of USB 2.0 Link PM is to be able to put the device into a lower power
link state when the bus is idle or the device NAKs USB IN transfers for
a specified amount of time.

...but hardware is broken:
--------------------------

It turns out many USB 3.0 devices claim to support USB 2.0 Link PM (by
setting the LPM bit in their USB 2.0 BOS descriptor), but they don't
actually implement it correctly.  This manifests as the USB device
refusing to respond to transfers when it is plugged into a USB 2.0 only
port under the Haswell-ULT/Lynx Point LP xHCI host.

These devices pass the xHCI driver's simple test to enable USB 2.0 Link
PM, wait for the port to enter L1, and then bring it back into L0.  They
only start to break when L1 entry is interleaved with transfers.

Some devices then fail to respond to the next control transfer (usually
a Set Configuration).  This results in devices never enumerating.

Other mass storage devices (such as a later model Western Digital My
Passport USB 3.0 hard drive) respond fine to going into L1 between
control transfers.  They ACK the entry, come out of L1 when the host
needs to send a control transfer, and respond properly to those control
transfers.  However, when the first READ10 SCSI command is sent, the
device NAKs the data phase while it's reading from the spinning disk.
Eventually, the host requests to put the link into L1, and the device
ACKs that request.  Then it never responds to the data phase of the
READ10 command.  This results in not being able to read from the drive.

Some mass storage devices (like the Corsair Survivor USB 3.0 flash
drive) are well behaved.  They ACK the entry into L1 during control
transfers, and when SCSI commands start coming in, they NAK the requests
to go into L1, because they need to be at full power.

Not all USB 3.0 devices advertise USB 2.0 link PM support.  My Point
Grey USB 3.0 webcam advertises itself as a USB 2.1 device, but doesn't
have a USB 2.0 BOS descriptor, so we don't enable USB 2.0 Link PM.  I
suspect that means the device isn't certified.

What do we do about it?
-----------------------

There's really no good way for the kernel to test these devices.
Therefore, the kernel needs to disable USB 2.0 Link PM by default, and
distros will have to enable it by writing 1 to the sysfs file
/sys/bus/usb/devices/../power/usb2_hardware_lpm.  Rip out the xHCI Link
PM test, since it's not sufficient to detect these buggy devices, and
don't automatically enable LPM after the device is addressed.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.11, that
contain the commit a558ccdcc71c7770c5e80c926a31cfe8a3892a09 "usb: xhci:
add USB2 Link power management BESL support".  Without this fix, some
USB 3.0 devices will not enumerate or work properly under USB 2.0 ports
on Haswell-ULT systems.

commit f3f5a0f8cc40b942f4c0ae117df82eeb65f07d4d upstream.

In the spec, the security label attribute id is '80', which means that
it should be bit number 80-64 == 16 in the 3rd word of the bitmap.

<title>exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect tests</title>

commit d049f74f2dbe71354d43d393ac3a188947811348 upstream.

The get_dumpable() return value is not boolean.  Most users of the
function actually want to be testing for non-SUID_DUMP_USER(1) rather than
SUID_DUMP_DISABLE(0).  The SUID_DUMP_ROOT(2) is also considered a
protected state.  Almost all places did this correctly, excepting the two
places fixed in this patch.

Wrong logic:
    if (dumpable == SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable == 0) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (!dumpable) { /* be protective */ }

Correct logic:
    if (dumpable != SUID_DUMP_USER) { /* be protective */ }
        or
    if (dumpable != 1) { /* be protective */ }

Without this patch, if the system had set the sysctl fs/suid_dumpable=2, a
user was able to ptrace attach to processes that had dropped privileges to
that user.  (This may have been partially mitigated if Yama was enabled.)

The macros have been moved into the file that declares get/set_dumpable(),
which means things like the ia64 code can see them too.

commit ea8117478918a4734586d35ff530721b682425be upstream.

Mike reported that commit 7d1a9417 ("x86: Use generic idle loop")
regressed several workloads and caused excessive reschedule
interrupts.

The patch in question failed to notice that the x86 code had an
inverted sense of the polling state versus the new generic code (x86:
default polling, generic: default !polling).

Fix the two prominent x86 mwait based idle drivers and introduce a few
new generic polling helpers (fixing the wrong smp_mb__after_clear_bit
usage).

Also switch the idle routines to using tif_need_resched() which is an
immediate TIF_NEED_RESCHED test as opposed to need_resched which will
end up being slightly different.

Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue
lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative.

Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy
surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get
evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t.

In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use
INT_MAX instead.

this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition.

This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to
sign extend the adjustment.  This helps in cases where the counter type
is wider than an unsigned adjustment.  An alternative to this patch is
to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid
surprises.

This patch specifically helps the following example:
  unsigned int delta = 1
  preempt_disable()
  this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0)
  this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta)
  preempt_enable()

Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value
0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff.  This is because
this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta),
which is basically:
  long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff

Also apply the same cast to:
  __this_cpu_sub()
  __this_cpu_sub_return()
  this_cpu_sub_return()

All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which
previously failed:

  l -= ui_one;
  __this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);

  l -= ui_one;
  this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
  CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);

  ul -= ui_one;
  __this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);

  ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 2);

  ul = __this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
  CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 1);

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "Sorry I let so much accumulate, I was in Buffalo and wanted a few
  things to cook in my tree for a while before sending to you.  Anyways,
  it's a lot of little things as usual at this stage in the game"

 1) Make bonding MAINTAINERS entry reflect reality, from Andy
    Gospodarek.

 2) Fix accidental sock_put() on timewait mini sockets, from Eric
    Dumazet.

 3) Fix crashes in l2tp due to mis-handling of ipv4 mapped ipv6
    addresses, from François CACHEREUL.

 4) Fix heap overflow in __audit_sockaddr(), from the eagle eyed Dan
    Carpenter.

 5) tcp_shifted_skb() doesn't take handle FINs properly, from Eric
    Dumazet.

 6) SFC driver bug fixes from Ben Hutchings.

 7) Fix TX packet scheduling wedge after channel change in ath9k driver,
    from Felix Fietkau.

 8) Fix user after free in BPF JIT code, from Alexei Starovoitov.

 9) Source address selection test is reversed in
    __ip_route_output_key(), fix from Jiri Benc.

10) VLAN and CAN layer mis-size netlink attributes, from Marc
    Kleine-Budde.

11) Fix permission checks in sysctls to use current_euid() instead of
    current_uid().  From Eric W Biederman.

12) IPSEC policies can go away while a timer is still pending for them,
    add appropriate ref-counting to fix, from Steffen Klassert.

13) Fix mis-programming of FDR and RMCR registers on R8A7740 sh_eth
    chips, from Nguyen Hong Ky and Simon Horman.

14) MLX4 forgets to DMA unmap pages on RX, fix from Amir Vadai.

15) IPV6 GRE tunnel MTU upper limit is miscalculated, from Oussama
    Ghorbel.

16) Fix typo in fq_change(), we were assigning "initial quantum" to
    "quantum".  From Eric Dumazet.

17) Set a more appropriate sk_pacing_rate for non-TCP sockets, otherwise
    FQ packet scheduler does not pace those flows properly.  Also from
    Eric Dumazet.

18) rtlwifi miscalculates packet pointers, from Mark Cave-Ayland.

19) l2tp_xmit_skb() can be called from process context, not just softirq
    context, so we must always make sure to BH disable around it.  From
    Eric Dumazet.

20) On qdisc reset, we forget to purge the RB tree of SKBs in netem
    packet scheduler.  From Stephen Hemminger.

21) Fix info leak in farsync WAN driver ioctl() handler, from Dan
    Carpenter and Salva Peiró.

22) Fix PHY reset and other issues in dm9000 driver, from Nikita
    Kiryanov and Michael Abbott.

23) When hardware can do SCTP crc32 checksums, we accidently don't
    disable the csum offload when IPSEC transformations have been
    applied.  From Fan Du and Vlad Yasevich.

24) Tail loss probing in TCP leaves the socket in the wrong congestion
    avoidance state.  From Yuchung Cheng.

25) In CPSW driver, enable NAPI before interrupts are turned on, from
    Markus Pargmann.

26) Integer underflow and dual-assignment in YAM hamradio driver, from
    Dan Carpenter.

27) If we are going to mangle a packet in tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() we must
    unclone it.  This fixes various hard to track down crashes in
    drivers where the SKBs -&gt;gso_segs was changing right from underneath
    the driver during TX queueing.  From Eric Dumazet.

28) Fix the handling of VLAN IDs, and in particular the special IDs 0
    and 4095, in the bridging layer.  From Toshiaki Makita.

29) Another info leak, this time in wanxl WAN driver, from Salva Peiró.

30) Fix race in socket credential passing, from Daniel Borkmann.

31) WHen NETLABEL is disabled, we don't validate CIPSO packets properly,
    from Seif Mazareeb.

32) Fix identification of fragmented frames in ipv4/ipv6 UDP
    Fragmentation Offload output paths, from Jiri Pirko.

33) Virtual Function fixes in bnx2x driver from Yuval Mintz and Ariel
    Elior.

34) When we removed the explicit neighbour pointer from ipv6 routes a
    slight regression was introduced for users such as IPVS, xt_TEE, and
    raw sockets.  We mix up the users requested destination address with
    the routes assigned nexthop/gateway.  From Julian Anastasov and
    Simon Horman.

35) Fix stack overruns in rt6_probe(), the issue is that can end up
    doing two full packet xmit paths at the same time when emitting
    neighbour discovery messages.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

36) davinci_emac driver doesn't handle IFF_ALLMULTI correctly, from
    Mariusz Ceier.

37) Make sure to set TCP sk_pacing_rate after the first legitimate RTT
    sample, from Neal Cardwell.

38) Wrong netlink attribute passed to xfrm_replay_verify_len(), from
    Steffen Klassert.

We cap bitrate at YAM_MAXBITRATE in yam_ioctl(), but it could also be
negative.  I don't know the impact of using a negative bitrate but let's
prevent it.

Commit 3fa4d734 (usb: phy: rename nop_usb_xceiv =&gt; usb_phy_gen_xceiv)
changed the conditional around the declaration of usb_nop_xceiv_register
from
	#if defined(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV) ||
		(defined(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV_MODULE) &amp;&amp; defined(MODULE))
to
	#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV)

While that looks the same, it is semantically different. The first expression
is true if CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV is built as module and if the including
code is built as module. The second expression is true if code depending on
CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV if built as module or into the kernel.

As a result, the arm:allmodconfig build fails with

arch/arm/mach-omap2/built-in.o: In function `omap3_evm_init':
arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-omap3evm.c:703: undefined reference to
	`usb_nop_xceiv_register'

Fix the problem by reverting to the old conditional.
