mfd: rtsx: Modify rts5249_optimize_phy

2013-12-04T19:06:13+00:00

commit 26b818511c6562ce372566c219a2ef1afea35fe6 upstream.

In some platforms, specially Thinkpad series, rts5249 won't be
initialized properly. So we need adjust some phy parameters to
improve the compatibility issue.

It is a little different between simulation and real chip. We have
no idea about which configuration is better before tape-out. We set
default settings according to simulation, but need to tune these
parameters after getting the real chip.

I can't explain every change in detail here. The below information is
just a rough description:

PHY_REG_REV: Disable internal clkreq_tx, enable rx_pwst
PHY_BPCR: No change, just turn the magic number to macro definitions
PHY_PCR: Change OOBS sensitivity, from 60mV to 90mV
PHY_RCR2: Control charge-pump current automatically
PHY_FLD4: Use TX cmu reference clock
PHY_RDR: Change RXDSEL from 30nF to 1.9nF
PHY_RCR1: Change the duration between adp_st and asserting cp_en from
0.32 us to 0.64us
PHY_FLD3: Adjust internal timers
PHY_TUNE: Fine tune the regulator12 output voltage

mtd: map: fixed bug in 64-bit systems

2013-12-04T19:05:25+00:00

commit a4d62babf988fe5dfde24437fa135ef147bc7aa0 upstream.

Hardware:
	CPU: XLP832,the 64-bit OS
	NOR Flash:S29GL128S 128M
Software:
	Kernel:2.6.32.41
	Filesystem:JFFS2
When writing files, errors appear:
	Write len 182  but return retlen 180
	Write of 182 bytes at 0x072c815c failed. returned -5, retlen 180
	Write len 186  but return retlen 184
	Write of 186 bytes at 0x072caff4 failed. returned -5, retlen 184
These errors exist only in 64-bit systems,not in 32-bit systems. After analysis, we
found that the left shift operation is wrong in map_word_load_partial. For instance:
	unsigned char buf[3] ={0x9e,0x3a,0xea};
	map_bankwidth(map) is 4;
	for (i=0; i < 3; i++) {
		int bitpos;
		bitpos = (map_bankwidth(map)-1-i)*8;
		orig.x[0] &= ~(0xff << bitpos);
		orig.x[0] |= buf[i] << bitpos;
	}

The value of orig.x[0] is expected to be 0x9e3aeaff, but in this situation(64-bit
System) we'll get the wrong value of 0xffffffff9e3aeaff due to the 64-bit sign
extension:
buf[i] is defined as "unsigned char" and the left-shift operation will convert it
to the type of "signed int", so when left-shift buf[i] by 24 bits, the final result
will get the wrong value: 0xffffffff9e3aeaff.

If the left-shift bits are less than 24, then sign extension will not occur. Whereas
the bankwidth of the nor flash we used is 4, therefore this BUG emerges.

ipc, msg: fix message length check for negative values

2013-12-04T19:05:22+00:00

commit 4e9b45a19241354daec281d7a785739829b52359 upstream.

On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the
size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated
to an int when passed to load_msg().  So a long might very well contain a
positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative.

That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will
be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making
it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to
two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too
small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction.  2/ The
copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with
userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access
violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the
remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB.  That almost instantly results in a
system crash or reset.

  | int main(void) {
  |     long msg = 1;

  |     write(fd, "-1", 2);
  |     close(fd);
  |
  |     msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT);
  |
  |     return 0;
  | }
  '---

Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently
using size_t for the message length.  This way the size checks in
do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but
we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out.

Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness
in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e.  signed vs.
unsigned checks.  It should never become negative under normal
circumstances, though.

Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should
be prevented.  As that might break existing userland, it will be handled
in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without
reintroducing the above described bug.

Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug
early -- e.g.  checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the
usercopy feature of the PaX patch does.  Or, for that matter, detect the
long vs.  int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin
of the very same patch does.

rbtree: fix rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() iterator

2013-12-04T19:05:10+00:00

commit 1310a5a99d900ee30b9f171146406bde0c6c2bd4 upstream.

The iterator rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() relies on pointer
underflow behavior when testing for loop termination.  In particular it
expects that

  &rb_entry(NULL, type, field)->field

is NULL.  But the result of this expression is not defined by a C standard
and some gcc versions (e.g.  4.3.4) assume the above expression can never
be equal to NULL.  The net result is an oops because the iteration is not
properly terminated.

Fix the problem by modifying the iterator to avoid pointer underflows.

usb: Don't enable USB 2.0 Link PM by default.

2013-11-29T19:28:09+00:00

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.

exec/ptrace: fix get_dumpable() incorrect tests

2013-11-29T19:27:58+00:00

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.

sched, idle: Fix the idle polling state logic

2013-11-29T19:27:55+00:00

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.

ipc, msg: forbid negative values for "msg{max,mnb,mni}"

2013-11-03T18:53:11+00:00

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.

percpu: fix this_cpu_sub() subtrahend casting for unsigneds

2013-10-30T21:27:03+00:00

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);
