2019-04-09ALSA: seq: Remove superfluous irqsave flagsTakashi Iwai4-35/+25
spin_lock_irqsave() is used unnecessarily in various places in sequencer core code although it's pretty obvious that the context is sleepable. Remove irqsave and use the plain spin_lock_irq() in such places for simplicity. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2019-04-09ALSA: seq: Align temporary re-locking with irqsave versionTakashi Iwai2-4/+4
In a few places in sequencer core, we temporarily unlock / re-lock the pool spin lock while waiting for the allocation in the blocking mode. There spin_unlock_irq() / spin_lock_irq() pairs are called while initially spin_lock_irqsave() is used (and spin_lock_irqrestore() at the end of the function again). This is likely OK for now, but it's a bit confusing and error-prone. This patch replaces these temporary relocking lines with the irqsave variant to make the lock/unlock sequence more consistently.

2019-04-09ALSA: timer: Revert active callback sync check at closeTakashi Iwai2-5/+7
This is essentially a revert of the commit a7588c896b05 ("ALSA: timer: Check ack_list emptiness instead of bit flag"). The intended change by the commit turns out to be insufficient, as snd_timer_close*() always calls snd_timer_stop() that deletes the ack_list beforehand. In theory, we can change the behavior of snd_timer_stop() to sync the pending ack_list, but this will become a deadlock for the callback like sequencer that calls again snd_timer_stop() from itself. So, reverting the change is a more straightforward solution.

2019-03-27ALSA: Replace snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() with standard helpers, ↵Takashi Iwai6-65/+18
take#2 snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() are merely thin wrappers of the standard page allocator / free functions. Even the arguments are compatible with some standard helpers, so there is little merit of keeping these wrappers. This patch replaces the all existing callers of snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() with the direct calls of the standard helper functions. In this version, we use a recently introduced one, alloc_pages_exact(), which suits better than the old snd_malloc_pages() implementation for our purposes. Then we can avoid the waste of pages by alignment to power-of-two. Since alloc_pages_exact() does split pages, we need no longer __GFP_COMP flag; or better to say, we must not pass __GFP_COMP to alloc_pages_exact(). So the former unconditional addition of __GFP_COMP flag in snd_malloc_pages() is dropped, as well as in most other places.

2019-03-27ALSA: timer: Make snd_timer_close() really kill pending actionsTakashi Iwai1-12/+33
snd_timer_close() is supposed to close the timer instance and sync with the deactivation of pending actions. However, there are still some overlooked cases: - It calls snd_timer_stop() at the beginning, but some other might re-trigger the timer right after that. - snd_timer_stop() calls del_timer_sync() only when all belonging instances are closed. If multiple instances were assigned to a timer object and one is closed, the timer is still running. Then the pending action assigned to this timer might be left. Actually either of the above is the likely cause of the reported syzkaller UAF. This patch plug these holes by introducing SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_DEAD flag. This is set at the beginning of snd_timer_close(), and the flag is checked at snd_timer_start*() and else, so that no longer new action is left after snd_timer_close().

2019-03-27ALSA: timer: Check ack_list emptiness instead of bit flagTakashi Iwai2-7/+4
For checking the pending timer instance that is still left on the timer object that is being closed, we set/clear a bit flag SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_CALLBACK around the call of callbacks. This can be simplified by replace with the list_empty() call for ti->ack_list. This covers the existence more comprehensively and safely. A gratis bonus is that we can get rid of SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_CALLBACK bit flag definition as well. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2019-03-27ALSA: timer: Make sure to clear pending ack listTakashi Iwai1-2/+18

2019-03-27ALSA: timer: Unify timer callback process codeTakashi Iwai1-36/+26
The timer core has two almost identical code for processing callbacks: once in snd_timer_interrupt() for fast callbacks and another in snd_timer_tasklet() for delayed callbacks. Let's unify them. In the new version, the resolution is read from ti->resolution at each call, and this must be fine; ti->resolution is set in the preparation step in snd_timer_interrupt().

2019-03-18ALSA: firewire-lib: use 8 byte header for IR context to get isochronous cycleTakashi Sakamoto1-25/+19
In kernel API of Linux FireWire subsystem, handlers of isochronous receive (IR) context can get context headers as an argument of callback. When 4 byte header is used, the context header includes isochronous packet header for each packet. When 8 byte header is used, it includes isochronous cycle as well. ALSA IEC 61883-1/6 engine uses 4 byte header, and computes isochronous cycle from the cycle of interrupt. The usage of 8 byte header can obsolete the computation. Furthermore, this change works well for a case that a series of packet in one interrupt includes skipped isochronous cycle, This commit uses 8 byte header to handle isochronous cycle.

2019-03-18ALSA: firewire-motu: add support MOTU 8pre FireWireTakashi Sakamoto4-12/+53
This commit adds support for MOTU 8pre FireWire, which was shipped 2007 and nowadays already discontinued. Userspace applications can transmit and receive PCM frames and MIDI messages for this model via ALSA PCM interface and RawMidi/Sequencer interfaces. Like the other models of MOTU FireWire series, this model has many quirks in its CIP. At first, data channels for two pairs of optical interfaces. At lower sampling transmission frequency, i.e. 44.1 and 48.0 kHz, one pair is available for ADAT data, thus 8 data chunks are transferred by CIP. At middle sampling transmission frequency, i.e. 88.2 and 96.0 kHz, two pairs are available to keep 8 chunks for ADAT data, thus CIP still includes 8 data chunks. Apart from data chunks for optical interface, CIP includes fixed number of data chunks. In tx stream, two chunks for status message, eight chunks for samples from analog 1-8 input, two chunks for mix-return. In rx stream, two chunks for control message, two chunks for main 1-2 output, two chunks for phone 1-2 output, two chunks for dummy 1-2. CIP header in tx stream includes quirks for its dbs and dbc fields. The value of dbs field is fixed to 0x13, against its actual size. The value of dbc field is firstly updated to 0x07 from zero, then it's incremented continuously according to actual number of data h blocks. Finally, the model has own bits to disable frame fetch. This commit uses several options to absorb the above quirks. $ python2 crpp < /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw1/config_rom ROM header and bus information block ----------------------------------------------------------------- 400 0410b57d bus_info_length 4, crc_length 16, crc 46461 404 31333934 bus_name "1394" 408 20001000 irmc 0, cmc 0, isc 1, bmc 0, cyc_clk_acc 0, max_rec 1 (4) 40c 0001f200 company_id 0001f2 | 410 00083dfb device_id 0000083dfb | EUI-64 0001f20000083dfb root directory ----------------------------------------------------------------- 414 0004c65c directory_length 4, crc 50780 418 030001f2 vendor 41c 0c0083c0 node capabilities per IEEE 1394 420 8d000006 --> eui-64 leaf at 438 424 d1000001 --> unit directory at 428 unit directory at 428 ----------------------------------------------------------------- 428 0003991c directory_length 3, crc 39196 42c 120001f2 specifier id 430 1300000f version 434 17103800 model eui-64 leaf at 438 ----------------------------------------------------------------- 438 00022681 leaf_length 2, crc 9857 43c 0001f200 company_id 0001f2 | 440 00083dfb device_id 0000083dfb | EUI-64 0001f20000083dfb Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

2019-03-17ALSA: firewire-motu: use 'version' field of unit directory to identify modelTakashi Sakamoto1-10/+10
Current ALSA firewire-motu driver uses the value of 'model' field of unit directory in configuration ROM for modalias for MOTU FireWire models. However, as long as I checked, Pre8 and 828mk3(Hybrid) have the same value for the field (=0x100800). unit | version | model --------------- | --------- | ---------- 828mkII | 0x000003 | 0x101800 Traveler | 0x000009 | 0x107800 Pre8 | 0x00000f | 0x100800 <- 828mk3(FW) | 0x000015 | 0x106800 AudioExpress | 0x000033 | 0x104800 828mk3(Hybrid) | 0x000035 | 0x100800 <- When updating firmware for MOTU 8pre FireWire from v1.0.0 to v1.0.3, I got change of the value from 0x100800 to 0x103800. On the other hand, the value of 'version' field is fixed to 0x00000f. As a quick glance, the higher 12 bits of the value of 'version' field represent firmware version, while the lower 12 bits is unknown. By induction, the value of 'version' field represents actual model. This commit changes modalias to match the value of 'version' field, instead of 'model' field. For degug, long name of added sound card includes hexadecimal value of 'model' field.

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice. Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be recursively expanded. On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build. Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really old) commit e8f5bdb02ce0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering"). It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would have just removed the ":".

2019-03-17coccinelle: semantic code search for missing put_device()Wen Yang1-0/+56
The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device structure, we should release that reference. The implementation of this semantic code search is: In a function, for a local variable returned by calling of_find_device_by_node(), a, if it is released by a function such as put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use, it is considered that there is no reference leak; b, if it is passed back to the caller via dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the reference will be released in other functions, and the current function also considers that there is no reference leak; c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the corresponding error message. By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks, such as: commit 11907e9d3533 ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in fsl_asoc_card_probe") commit a12085d13997 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak") commit 11493f26856a ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak") There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code. Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to further check the reference leak.

Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida
