commit 52a9dab6d892763b2a8334a568bd4e2c1a6fde66 upstream.

GCC 12 correctly reports a potential use-after-free condition in the
xrealloc helper. Fix the warning by avoiding an implicit "free(ptr)"
when size == 0:

[ Upstream commit 01dabed20573804750af5c7bf8d1598a6bf7bf6e ]

If zram-generator package is installed and works, then we can not remove
zram module because zram swap is being used. This case needs a clean zram
environment, change this test by using hot_add/hot_remove interface. So
even zram device is being used, we still can add zram device and remove
them in cleanup.

The two interface was introduced since kernel commit 6566d1a32bf7("zram:
add dynamic device add/remove functionality") in v4.2-rc1. If kernel
supports these two interface, we use hot_add/hot_remove to slove this
problem, if not, just check whether zram is being used or built in, then
skip it on old kernel.

[ Upstream commit d18da7ec3719559d6e74937266d0416e6c7e0b31 ]

zram01 uses `free -m` to measure zram memory usage. The results are no
sense because they are polluted by all running processes on the system.

We Should only calculate the free memory delta for the current process.
So use the third field of /sys/block/zram&lt;id&gt;/mm_stat to measure memory
usage instead. The file is available since kernel 4.1.

orig_data_size(first): uncompressed size of data stored in this disk.
compr_data_size(second): compressed size of data stored in this disk
mem_used_total(third): the amount of memory allocated for this disk

Also remove useless zram cleanup call in zram_fill_fs and so we don't
need to cleanup zram twice if fails.

Since commit 43209ea2d17a ("zram: remove max_comp_streams internals"), zram
has switched to per-cpu streams. Even kernel still keep this interface for
some reasons, but writing to max_comp_stream doesn't take any effect. So
skip it on newer kernel ie 4.7.

The code that comparing kernel version is from xfstests testsuite ext4/053.

testusb' application which uses 'usbtest' driver reports 'unknown speed'
from the function 'find_testdev'. The variable 'entry-&gt;speed' was not
updated from  the application. The IOCTL mentioned in the FIXME comment can
only report whether the connection is low speed or not. Speed is read using
the IOCTL USBDEVFS_GET_SPEED which reports the proper speed grade.  The
call is implemented in the function 'handle_testdev' where the file
descriptor was availble locally. Sample output is given below where 'high
speed' is printed as the connected speed.

ASan reports some memory leaks when running:

  # perf test "42: BPF filter"

This second leak is caused by a strlist not being dellocated on error
inside probe_file__del_events.

This patch adds a goto label before the deallocation and makes the error
path jump to it.

[ Upstream commit 937654ce497fb6e977a8c52baee5f7d9616302d9 ]

ASan reports some memory leaks when running:

  # perf test "42: BPF filter"

The first of these leaks is caused by obj_buf never being deallocated in
__test__bpf.

This patch adds the missing free.

[ Upstream commit f8cbb0f926ae1e1fb5f9e51614e5437560ed4039 ]

ASan reports memory leaks when running:

  # perf test "88: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname"

One of these is caused by the lzma stream never being closed inside
lzma_decompress_to_file().

This patch adds the missing lzma_end().

<title>selftests/powerpc: Fix "no_handler" EBB selftest</title>

[ Upstream commit 45677c9aebe926192e59475b35a1ff35ff2d4217 ]

The "no_handler_test" in ebb selftests attempts to read the PMU
registers twice via helper function "dump_ebb_state". First dump is
just before closing of event and the second invocation is done after
closing of the event. The original intention of second
dump_ebb_state was to dump the state of registers at the end of
the test when the counters are frozen. But this will be achieved
with the first call itself since sample period is set to low value
and PMU will be frozen by then. Hence patch removes the
dump which was done before closing of the event.

<title>selftests/vm/pkeys: fix alloc_random_pkey() to make it really, really random</title>

[ Upstream commit f36ef407628835a7d7fb3d235b1f1aac7022d9a3 ]

Patch series "selftests/vm/pkeys: Bug fixes and a new test".

There has been a lot of activity on the x86 front around the XSAVE
architecture which is used to context-switch processor state (among other
things).  In addition, AMD has recently joined the protection keys club by
adding processor support for PKU.

The AMD implementation helped uncover a kernel bug around the PKRU "init
state", which actually applied to Intel's implementation but was just
harder to hit.  This series adds a test which is expected to help find
this class of bug both on AMD and Intel.  All the work around pkeys on x86
also uncovered a few bugs in the selftest.

This patch (of 4):

The "random" pkey allocation code currently does the good old:

	srand((unsigned int)time(NULL));

*But*, it unfortunately does this on every random pkey allocation.

There may be thousands of these a second.  time() has a one second
resolution.  So, each time alloc_random_pkey() is called, the PRNG is
*RESET* to time().  This is nasty.  Normally, if you do:

	srand(&lt;ANYTHING&gt;);
	foo = rand();
	bar = rand();

You'll be quite guaranteed that 'foo' and 'bar' are different.  But, if
you do:

	srand(1);
	foo = rand();
	srand(1);
	bar = rand();

You are quite guaranteed that 'foo' and 'bar' are the *SAME*.  The recent
"fix" effectively forced the test case to use the same "random" pkey for
the whole test, unless the test run crossed a second boundary.

Only run srand() once at program startup.

This explains some very odd and persistent test failures I've been seeing.
