ALSA: hda - Fixing background noise on Dell Inspiron 3162

2016-03-03T23:07:27+00:00

commit 3b43b71f05d3ecd01c4116254666d9492301697d upstream.

After login to the desktop on Dell Inspiron 3162,
there's a very loud background noise comes from the builtin speaker.
The noise does not go away even if the speaker is muted.

The noise disappears after using the aamix fixup.

ALSA: hda - Apply clock gate workaround to Skylake, too

2016-03-03T23:07:27+00:00

commit 7e31a0159461818a1bda49662921b98a29c1187b upstream.

Some Skylake machines show the codec probe errors in certain
situations, e.g. HP Z240 desktop fails to probe the onboard Realtek
codec at reloading the snd-hda-intel module like:
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: spurious response 0x200:0x2, last cmd=0x000000
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: lastcmd=0x000f0000
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: No response from codec, disabling MSI: last cmd=0x000f0000
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: Codec #0 probe error; disabling it...
  hdaudio hdaudioC0D2: no AFG or MFG node found
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: no codecs initialized

Also, HP G470 G3 suffers from the similar problem, as reported in
bugzilla below.  On this machine, the codec probe error appears even
at a fresh boot.

As Libin suggested, the same workaround used for Broxton in the commit
[6639484ddaf6: ALSA: hda - disable dynamic clock gating on Broxton
 before reset] can be applied for Skylake in order to fix this problem.
The Intel HW team also confirmed that this is needed for SKL.

This patch makes the workaround applied to both SKL and BXT
platforms.  The referred macros are moved and one superfluous macro
(IS_BROXTON()) is another one (IS_BXT()) as well.

ALSA: seq: Fix double port list deletion

2016-02-25T20:01:14+00:00

commit 13d5e5d4725c64ec06040d636832e78453f477b7 upstream.

The commit [7f0973e973cd: ALSA: seq: Fix lockdep warnings due to
double mutex locks] split the management of two linked lists (source
and destination) into two individual calls for avoiding the AB/BA
deadlock.  However, this may leave the possible double deletion of one
of two lists when the counterpart is being deleted concurrently.
It ends up with a list corruption, as revealed by syzkaller fuzzer.

This patch fixes it by checking the list emptiness and skipping the
deletion and the following process.

ALSA: seq: Fix leak of pool buffer at concurrent writes

2016-02-25T20:01:14+00:00

commit d99a36f4728fcbcc501b78447f625bdcce15b842 upstream.

When multiple concurrent writes happen on the ALSA sequencer device
right after the open, it may try to allocate vmalloc buffer for each
write and leak some of them.  It's because the presence check and the
assignment of the buffer is done outside the spinlock for the pool.

The fix is to move the check and the assignment into the spinlock.

(The current implementation is suboptimal, as there can be multiple
 unnecessary vmallocs because the allocation is done before the check
 in the spinlock.  But the pool size is already checked beforehand, so
 this isn't a big problem; that is, the only possible path is the
 multiple writes before any pool assignment, and practically seen, the
 current coverage should be "good enough".)

The issue was triggered by syzkaller fuzzer.

ALSA: pcm: Fix rwsem deadlock for non-atomic PCM stream

2016-02-25T20:01:13+00:00

commit 67ec1072b053c15564e6090ab30127895dc77a89 upstream.

A non-atomic PCM stream may take snd_pcm_link_rwsem rw semaphore twice
in the same code path, e.g. one in snd_pcm_action_nonatomic() and
another in snd_pcm_stream_lock().  Usually this is OK, but when a
write lock is issued between these two read locks, the problem
happens: the write lock is blocked due to the first reade lock, and
the second read lock is also blocked by the write lock.  This
eventually deadlocks.

The reason is the way rwsem manages waiters; it's queued like FIFO, so
even if the writer itself doesn't take the lock yet, it blocks all the
waiters (including reads) queued after it.

As a workaround, in this patch, we replace the standard down_write()
with an spinning loop.  This is far from optimal, but it's good
enough, as the spinning time is supposed to be relatively short for
normal PCM operations, and the code paths requiring the write lock
aren't called so often.

ALSA: hda - Cancel probe work instead of flush at remove

2016-02-25T20:01:13+00:00

commit 0b8c82190c12e530eb6003720dac103bf63e146e upstream.

The commit [991f86d7ae4e: ALSA: hda - Flush the pending probe work at
remove] introduced the sync of async probe work at remove for fixing
the race.  However, this may lead to another hangup when the module
removal is performed quickly before starting the probe work, because
it issues flush_work() and it's blocked forever.

The workaround is to use cancel_work_sync() instead of flush_work()
there.

ALSA: dummy: Implement timer backend switching more safely

2016-02-17T20:31:00+00:00

commit ddce57a6f0a2d8d1bfacfa77f06043bc760403c2 upstream.

Currently the selected timer backend is referred at any moment from
the running PCM callbacks.  When the backend is switched, it's
possible to lead to inconsistency from the running backend.  This was
pointed by syzkaller fuzzer, and the commit [7ee96216c31a: ALSA:
dummy: Disable switching timer backend via sysfs] disabled the dynamic
switching for avoiding the crash.

This patch improves the handling of timer backend switching.  It keeps
the reference to the selected backend during the whole operation of an
opened stream so that it won't be changed by other streams.

Together with this change, the hrtimer parameter is reenabled as
writable now.

NOTE: this patch also turned out to fix the still remaining race.
Namely, ops was still replaced dynamically at dummy_pcm_open:

  static int dummy_pcm_open(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
  {
  ....
          dummy->timer_ops = &dummy_systimer_ops;
          if (hrtimer)
                  dummy->timer_ops = &dummy_hrtimer_ops;

Since dummy->timer_ops is common among all streams, and when the
replacement happens during accesses of other streams, it may lead to a
crash.  This was actually triggered by syzkaller fuzzer and KASAN.

This patch rewrites the code not to use the ops shared by all streams
any longer, too.

ALSA: hda - Fix bad dereference of jack object

2016-02-17T20:31:00+00:00

commit 2ebab40eb74a0225d5dfba72bfae317dd948fa2d upstream.

The hda_jack_tbl entries are managed by snd_array for allowing
multiple jacks.  It's good per se, but the problem is that struct
hda_jack_callback keeps the hda_jack_tbl pointer.  Since snd_array
doesn't preserve each pointer at resizing the array, we can't keep the
original pointer but have to deduce the pointer at each time via
snd_array_entry() instead.  Actually, this resulted in the deference
to the wrong pointer on codecs that have many pins such as CS4208.

This patch replaces the pointer to the NID value as the search key.
As an unexpected good side effect, this even simplifies the code, as
only NID is needed in most cases.
