regmap: debugfs: Fix continued read from registers file

2013-09-27T00:21:38+00:00

commit 26ee47411ae22caa07d3f3b63ca6d097cba6681b upstream.

The regmap_debugfs_get_dump_start() function maps from a file offset to the
register that can be found at that position in the file. This is done using a
look-up table. Commit d6814a7d ("regmap: debugfs: Suppress cache for partial
register files") added a check to bypass the look-up table for partial register
files, since the offsets in that table are only correct for the full register
file. The check incorrectly uses the file offset instead of the register base
address and returns it. This will cause the file offset to be interpreted as a
register address which will result in a incorrect output from the registers file
for all reads except at position 0.

The issue can easily be reproduced by doing small reads the registers file, e.g.
`dd if=registers bs=10 count=5`.

firmware loader: fix pending_fw_head list corruption

2013-09-27T00:21:23+00:00

commit 1eeeef153c02f5856ec109fa532eb5f31c39f85c upstream.

Got the following oops just before reboot:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
[<8028d300>] (__list_del_entry+0x44/0xac)
[<802e3320>] (__fw_load_abort.part.13+0x1c/0x50)

The following race condition triggers here:

                                       (resume)

                                       firmware_loading_store(0)
                                       list_del_init(&buf->pending_list)
                                       (schedule)
  (resume)
  list_add(&buf->pending_list, &pending_fw_head);
  wait_for_completion(&buf->completion);

causing an oops later when walking pending_list after the firmware has
been released.

The proposed fix is to move the list_add() before sysfs attribute
creation.

drivers/base/memory.c: fix show_mem_removable() to handle missing sections

2013-08-29T02:26:38+00:00

"cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/removable" crashed the system.

The problem is that show_mem_removable() is passing a
bad pfn to is_mem_section_removable(), which causes

    if (!node_online(page_to_nid(page)))

to blow up.  Why is it passing in a bad pfn?

The reason is that show_mem_removable() will loop sections_per_block
times.  sections_per_block is 16, but mem->section_count is 8,
indicating holes in this memory block.  Checking that the memory section
is present before checking to see if the memory section is removable
fixes the problem.

regmap: rbtree: Fix overlapping rbnodes.

2013-08-21T16:03:54+00:00

Avoid overlapping register regions by making the initial blklen of a new
node 1. If a register write occurs to a yet uncached register, that is
lower than but near an existing node's base_reg, a new node is created
and it's blklen is set to an arbitrary value (sizeof(*rbnode)). That may
cause this node to overlap with another node. Those nodes should be merged,
but this merge doesn't happen yet, so this patch at least makes the initial
blklen small enough to avoid hitting the wrong node, which may otherwise
lead to severe breakage.

regmap: cache: Make sure to sync the last register in a block

2013-08-05T14:51:09+00:00

regcache_sync_block_raw_flush() expects the address of the register after last
register that needs to be synced as its parameter. But the last call to
regcache_sync_block_raw_flush() in regcache_sync_block_raw() passes the address
of the last register in the block. This effectively always skips over the last
register in a block, even if it needs to be synced. In order to fix it increase
the address by one register.

The issue was introduced in commit 75a5f89 ("regmap: cache: Write consecutive
registers in a single block write").

Merge tag 'driver-core-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2013-07-18T19:48:40+00:00

Pull driver core patches from Greg KH:
 "Here are some driver core patches for 3.11-rc2.  They aren't really
  bugfixes, but a bunch of new helper macros for drivers to properly
  create attribute groups, which drivers and subsystems need to fix up a
  ton of race issues with incorrectly creating sysfs files (binary and
  normal) after userspace has been told that the device is present.

  Also here is the ability to create binary files as attribute groups,
  to solve that race condition, which was impossible to do before this,
  so that's my fault the drivers were broken.

  The majority of the .c changes is indenting and moving code around a
  bit.  It affects no existing code, but allows the large backlog of 70+
  patches that I already have created to start flowing into the
  different subtrees, instead of having to live in my driver-core tree,
  causing merge nightmares in linux-next for the next few months.

  These were finalized too late for the -rc1 merge window, which is why
  they were didn't make that pull request, testing and review from
  others didn't happen until a few weeks ago, and then there's the whole
  distraction of the past few days, which prevented these from getting
  to you sooner, sorry about that.

  Oh, and there's a bugfix for the documentation build warning in here
  as well.  All of these have been in linux-next this week, with no
  reported problems"

Merge branch 'cpuinit_phase2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux

2013-07-18T17:50:26+00:00

Pull phase two of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker:
 "With the __cpuinit infrastructure removed earlier, this group of
  commits only removes the function/data tagging that was done with the
  various (now no-op) __cpuinit related prefixes.

  Now that the dust has settled with yesterday's v3.11-rc1, there
  hopefully shouldn't be any new users leaking back in tree, but I think
  we can leave the harmless no-op stubs there for a release as a
  courtesy to those who still have out of tree stuff and weren't paying
  attention.

  Although the commits are against the recent tag to allow for minor
  context refreshes for things like yesterday's v3.11-rc1~ slab content,
  the patches have been largely unchanged for weeks, aside from such
  trivial updates.

  For detail junkies, the largely boring and mostly irrelevant history
  of the patches can be viewed at:

    http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulg/cpuinit-delete.git

  If nothing else, I guess it does at least demonstrate the level of
  involvement required to shepherd such a treewide change to completion.

  This is the same repository of patches that has been applied to the
  end of the daily linux-next branches for the past several weeks"

We should be using groups, not attribute lists, for classes to allow

overall, so add them.

The dev_attrs list will go away after all in-kernel users are converted
