2011-04-14ALSA: Fix yet another race in disconnectionTakashi Iwai
commit a45e3d6b13e97506b616980c0f122c3389bcefa4 upstream. This patch fixes a race between snd_card_file_remove() and snd_card_disconnect(). When the card is added to shutdown_files list in snd_card_disconnect(), but it's freed in snd_card_file_remove() at the same time, the shutdown_files list gets corrupted. The list member must be freed in snd_card_file_remove() as well.

2011-02-17ALSA: hrtimer: handle delayed timer interruptsClemens Ladisch
commit b1d4f7f4bdcf9915c41ff8cfc4425c84dabb1fde upstream. If a timer interrupt was delayed too much, hrtimer_forward_now() will forward the timer expiry more than once. When this happens, the additional number of elapsed ALSA timer ticks must be passed to snd_timer_interrupt() to prevent the ALSA timer from falling behind. This mostly fixes MIDI slowdown problems on highly-loaded systems with badly behaved interrupt handlers.

2010-10-28ALSA: rawmidi: fix oops (use after free) when unloading a driver moduleClemens Ladisch
commit aa73aec6c385e2c797ac25cc7ccf0318031de7c8 upstream. When a driver module is unloaded and the last still open file is a raw MIDI device, the card and its devices will be actually freed in the snd_card_file_remove() call when that file is closed. Afterwards, rmidi and rmidi->card point into freed memory, so the module pointer is likely to be garbage. (This was introduced by commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a.)

2010-10-28ALSA: prevent heap corruption in snd_ctl_new()Dan Rosenberg
commit 5591bf07225523600450edd9e6ad258bb877b779 upstream. The snd_ctl_new() function in sound/core/control.c allocates space for a snd_kcontrol struct by performing arithmetic operations on a user-provided size without checking for integer overflow. If a user provides a large enough size, an overflow will occur, the allocated chunk will be too small, and a second user-influenced value will be written repeatedly past the bounds of this chunk. This code is reachable by unprivileged users who have permission to open a /dev/snd/controlC* device (on many distros, this is group "audio") via the SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_ADD and SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_REPLACE ioctls.

2010-09-20ALSA: seq/oss - Fix double-free at error path of snd_seq_oss_open()Takashi Iwai
commit 27f7ad53829f79e799a253285318bff79ece15bd upstream. The error handling in snd_seq_oss_open() has several bad codes that do dereferecing released pointers and double-free of kmalloc'ed data. The object dp is release in free_devinfo() that is called via private_free callback. The rest shouldn't touch this object any more. The patch changes delete_port() to call kfree() in any case, and gets rid of unnecessary calls of destructors in snd_seq_oss_open(). Fixes CVE-2010-3080.

2010-08-26ALSA: emu10k1 - delay the PCM interrupts (add pcm_irq_delay parameter)Jaroslav Kysela
commit 56385a12d9bb9e173751f74b6c430742018cafc0 upstream. With some hardware combinations, the PCM interrupts are acknowledged before the period boundary from the emu10k1 chip. The midlevel PCM code gets confused and the playback stream is interrupted. It seems that the interrupt processing shift by 2 samples is enough to fix this issue. This default value does not harm other, non-affected hardware.

2009-12-18ALSA: hrtimer - Fix lock-upTakashi Iwai
commit fcfdebe70759c74e2e701f69aaa7f0e5e32cf5a6 upstream. The timer stop callback can be called from snd_timer_interrupt(), which is called from the hrtimer callback. Since hrtimer_cancel() waits for the callback completion, this eventually results in a lock-up. This patch fixes the problem by just toggling a flag at stop callback and call hrtimer_cancel() later.

2009-11-10sound: rawmidi: fix MIDI device O_APPEND error handlingClemens Ladisch
Commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a in 2.6.30 broke the error handling code in rawmidi_open_priv(). If only the output substream of a RawMIDI device has been opened and if this device is then opened with O_RDWR | O_APPEND and if the initialization of the input substream fails (either because of low memory or because the device driver's open callback fails), then the runtime structure of the already open output substream will be freed and all following writes through the first handle will cause snd_rawmidi_write() to use the NULL runtime pointer.

Commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a in 2.6.30 dropped the check that a substream must already have been opened with O_APPEND to be able to open it a second time. This would make it possible for a substream to be switched to append mode, which would mean that non-atomic writes would fail unexpectedly.

Commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a in 2.6.30 moved the substream initialization code to where it would be executed every time the substream is opened. This had the consequence that any further opening would drop and leak the data in the existing buffer, and that the device driver's open callback would be called multiple times, unexpectedly.

2009-10-30ALSA: sound: Move dereference after NULL test and drop unnecessary NULL testsJulia Lawall
In pcm.c, if the NULL test on pcm is needed, then the dereference should be after the NULL test. In dummy.c and ali5451.c, the context of the calls to snd_card_dummy_new_mixer and snd_ali_free_voice show that dummy and pvoice, respectively cannot be NULL. A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; identifier fld; @@ * x->fld ... when != \(x = E\|&x\) * x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

Add debug module option to snd core. This controls the debug print level.

As default, it's set to the verbose level 2. Since this option can be changed dynamically via sysfs file, you can suppress the verbose debug messages on the fly, which wasn't possible before.

The current PCM core has the following problems regarding PCM draining in non-blocking mode: - the current f_flags isn't checked in snd_pcm_drain(), thus changing the mode dynamically via snd_pcm_nonblock() after open doesn't work. - calling drain in non-blocking mode just return -EAGAIN error, but doesn't provide any way to sync with draining. This patch fixes these issues. - check file->f_flags in snd_pcm_drain() properly - when O_NONBLOCK is set, PCM core sets the stream(s) to DRAIN state but quits ioctl immediately without waiting the whole drain; the caller can sync the drain manually via poll() Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
