Commit 677a31565692d596ef42ea589b53ba289abf4713 upstream.

The `insn_bits` handler `ni_65xx_dio_insn_bits()` has a `for` loop that
currently writes (optionally) and reads back up to 5 "ports" consisting
of 8 channels each.  It reads up to 32 1-bit channels but can only read
and write a whole port at once - it needs to handle up to 5 ports as the
first channel it reads might not be aligned on a port boundary.  It
breaks out of the loop early if the next port it handles is beyond the
final port on the card.  It also breaks out early on the 5th port in the
loop if the first channel was aligned.  Unfortunately, it doesn't check
that the current port it is dealing with belongs to the comedi subdevice
the `insn_bits` handler is acting on.  That's a bug.

Redo the `for` loop to terminate after the final port belonging to the
subdevice, changing the loop variable in the process to simplify things
a bit.  The `for` loop could now try and handle more than 5 ports if the
subdevice has more than 40 channels, but the test `if (bitshift &gt;= 32)`
ensures it will break out early after 4 or 5 ports (depending on whether
the first channel is aligned on a port boundary).  (`bitshift` will be
between -7 and 7 inclusive on the first iteration, increasing by 8 for
each subsequent operation.)

commit ab1dd9963137a1e122004d5378a581bf16ae9bc8 upstream.

Calling RFbSetPower with uCH zero value will cause out of bound array reference.

This causes 64 bit kernels to oops on boot.

Note: Driver does not function on 64 bit kernels and should be
blacklisted on them.

commit cc400e185c07c15a42d2635995f422de5b94b696 upstream.

Some low-level comedi drivers (incorrectly) point `dev-&gt;read_subdev` or
`dev-&gt;write_subdev` to a subdevice that does not support asynchronous
commands.  Comedi's poll(), read() and write() file operation handlers
assume these subdevices do support asynchronous commands.  In
particular, they assume `s-&gt;async` is valid (where `s` points to the
read or write subdevice), which it won't be if it has been set
incorrectly.  This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference.

Check `s-&gt;async` is non-NULL in `comedi_poll()`, `comedi_read()` and
`comedi_write()` to avoid the bug.

commit 5d06e3df280bd230e2eadc16372e62818c63e894 upstream.

`parse_insn()` is dereferencing the user-space pointer `insn-&gt;data`
directly when handling the `INSN_INTTRIG` comedi instruction.  It
shouldn't be using `insn-&gt;data` at all; it should be using the separate
`data` pointer passed to the function.  Fix it.

Correct a direct dereference of I/O memory to use an appropriate I/O

currently tagged with `__iomem` but I plan to correct that for 3.7.

commit c8cad4c89ee3b15935c532210ae6ebb5c0a2734d upstream.

When `do_cmd_ioctl()` allocates memory for the kernel copy of a channel
list, it frees any previously allocated channel list in
`async-&gt;cmd.chanlist` and replaces it with the new one.  However, if the
device is ever removed (or "detached") the cleanup code in
`cleanup_device()` in "drivers.c" does not free this memory so it is
lost.

A sensible place to free the kernel copy of the channel list is in
`do_become_nonbusy()` as at that point the comedi asynchronous command
associated with the channel list is no longer valid.  Free the channel
list in `do_become_nonbusy()` instead of `do_cmd_ioctl()` and clear the
pointer to prevent it being freed more than once.

Note that `cleanup_device()` could be called at an inappropriate time
while the comedi device is open, but that's a separate bug not related
to this this patch.

commit c0729eeefdcd76db338f635162bf0739fd2c5f6f upstream.

Éric Piel reported a kernel oops in the "comedi_test" module.  It was a
NULL pointer dereference within `waveform_ai_interrupt()` (actually a
timer function) that sometimes occurred when a running asynchronous
command is cancelled (either by the `COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl or by closing
the device file).

This seems to be a race between the caller of `waveform_ai_cancel()`
which on return from that function goes and tears down the running
command, and the timer function which uses the command.  In particular,
`async-&gt;cmd.chanlist` gets freed (and the pointer set to NULL) by
`do_become_nonbusy()` in "comedi_fops.c" but a previously scheduled
`waveform_ai_interrupt()` timer function will dereference that pointer
regardless, leading to the oops.

Fix it by replacing the `del_timer()` call in `waveform_ai_cancel()`
with `del_timer_sync()`.

Commit 22056e2b46246d97ff0f7c6e21a77b8daa07f02c upstream.

Tuomas &lt;tvainikk _at_ gmail _dot_ com&gt; reported problems getting
meaningful output from a Lab-PC+ in differential mode for AI cmds, but
AI insn reads gave correct readings.  He tracked it down to two
problems, one of which is addressed by this patch.

It seems that writing to the command3 register after writing to the
command4 register in `labpc_ai_cmd()` messes up the differential
reference bit setting in the command4 register.  Set up the command4
register after the command3 register (as in `labpc_ai_rinsn()`) to avoid
the problem.

Thanks to Tuomas for suggesting the fix.

Commit 22056e2b46246d97ff0f7c6e21a77b8daa07f02c upstream.

Tuomas &lt;tvainikk _at_ gmail _dot_ com&gt; reported problems getting
meaningful output from a Lab-PC+ in differential mode for AI cmds, but
AI insn reads gave correct readings.  He tracked it down to two
problems, one of which is addressed by this patch.

It seems that writing to the command3 register after writing to the
command4 register in `labpc_ai_cmd()` messes up the differential
reference bit setting in the command4 register.  Set up the command4
register after the command3 register (as in `labpc_ai_rinsn()`) to avoid
the problem.

Thanks to Tuomas for suggesting the fix.
