Pull sound fixes from Takashi Iwai: "It's a bad habit to get a higher volume of fixes often lately, but things happen again. All commits found here are real bug fixes, and are mostly trivial. Most of changes in ASoC are the fixes for enum items due to the wrong API usages, in addition to a few DAPM mutex deadlock and other fixes. In HD-audio, only fixups for HP laptops. Although diffstat shows much, the changes are simple: there are just so many different device entries there" * tag 'sound-3.14-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound: ASoC: sta32x: Fix wrong enum for limiter2 release rate ASoC: da732x: Mark DC offset control registers volatile ALSA: hda/realtek - Add more entry for enable HP mute led ALSA: hda - Add a fixup for HP Folio 13 mute LED ASoC: wm8958-dsp: Fix firmware block loading ASoC: sta32x: Fix cache sync ALSA: hda/realtek - Add more entry for enable HP mute led ASoC: dapm: Add locking to snd_soc_dapm_xxxx_pin functions Input - arizona-haptics: Fix double lock of dapm_mutex ASoC: wm8400: Fix the wrong number of enum items ASoC: isabelle: Fix the wrong number of items in enum ctls ASoC: ad1980: Fix wrong number of items for capture source ASoC: wm8994: Fix the wrong number of enum items ASoC: wm8900: Fix the wrong number of enum items ASoC: wm8770: Fix wrong number of enum items ASoC: sta32x: Fix array access overflow ASoC: dapm: Correct regulator bypass error messages

Steve Capper authored
Page table entries on ARM64 are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast. For example: gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1); where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int. This patch adds a double logical invert to all the pte_ accessors to ensure predictable downcasting.

The PHB diag-data is important to help locating the root cause for EEH errors such as frozen PE or fenced PHB. However, the EEH core enables IO path by clearing part of HW registers before collecting this data causing it to be corrupted. This patch fixes this by dumping the PHB diag-data immediately when frozen/fenced state on PE or PHB is detected for the first time in eeh_ops::get_state() or next_error() backend.

Paul Mackerras authored
The new ELFv2 little-endian ABI increases the stack redzone -- the area below the stack pointer that can be used for storing data -- from 288 bytes to 512 bytes. This means that we need to allow more space on the user stack when delivering a signal to a 64-bit process. To make the code a bit clearer, we define new USER_REDZONE_SIZE and KERNEL_REDZONE_SIZE symbols in ptrace.h. For now, we leave the kernel redzone size at 288 bytes, since increasing it to 512 bytes would increase the size of interrupt stack frames correspondingly. Gcc currently only makes use of 288 bytes of redzone even when compiling for the new little-endian ABI, and the kernel cannot currently be compiled with the new ABI anyway. In the future, hopefully gcc will provide an option to control the amount of redzone used, and then we could reduce it even more. This also changes the code in arch_compat_alloc_user_space() to preserve the expanded redzone. It is not clear why this function would ever be used on a 64-bit process, though.

Laurent Dufour authored
In copy_oldmem_page, the current check using max_pfn and min_low_pfn to decide if the page is backed or not, is not valid when the memory layout is not continuous. This happens when running as a QEMU/KVM guest, where RTAS is mapped higher in the memory. In that case max_pfn points to the end of RTAS, and a hole between the end of the kdump kernel and RTAS is not backed by PTEs. As a consequence, the kdump kernel is crashing in copy_oldmem_page when accessing in a direct way the pages in that hole. This fix relies on the memblock's service memblock_is_region_memory to check if the read page is part or not of the directly accessible memory.

Currently we're storing a host endian RTAS token in rtas_stop_self_args.token. We then pass that directly to rtas. This is fine on big endian however on little endian the token is not what we expect. This will typically result in hitting: panic("Alas, I survived.\n"); To fix this we always use the stop-self token in host order and always convert it to be32 before passing this to rtas.

Commit e504c909 (kvm, vmx: Fix lazy FPU on nested guest, 2013-11-13) highlighted a real problem, but the fix was subtly wrong. nested_read_cr0 is the CR0 as read by L2, but here we want to look at the CR0 value reflecting L1's setup. In other words, L2 might think that TS=0 (so nested_read_cr0 has the bit clear); but if L1 is actually running it with TS=1, we should inject the fault into L1. The effective value of CR0 in L2 is contained in vmcs12->guest_cr0, use it.

The problem occurs when the guest performs a pusha with the stack address pointing to an mmio address (or an invalid guest physical address) to start with, but then extending into an ordinary guest physical address. When doing repeated emulated pushes emulator_read_write sets mmio_needed to 1 on the first one. On a later push when the stack points to regular memory, mmio_nr_fragments is set to 0, but mmio_is_needed is not set to 0. As a result, KVM exits to userspace, and then returns to complete_emulated_mmio. In complete_emulated_mmio vcpu->mmio_cur_fragment is incremented. The termination condition of vcpu->mmio_cur_fragment == vcpu->mmio_nr_fragments is never achieved. The code bounces back and fourth to userspace incrementing mmio_cur_fragment past it's buffer. If the guest does nothing else it eventually leads to a a crash on a memcpy from invalid memory address. However if a guest code can cause the vm to be destroyed in another vcpu with excellent timing, then kvm_clear_async_pf_completion_queue can be used by the guest to control the data that's pointed to by the call to cancel_work_item, which can be used to gain execution.

Commit 1fcf7ce0 (arm: kvm: implement CPU PM notifier) added support for CPU power-management, using a cpu_notifier to re-init KVM on a CPU that entered CPU idle. The code assumed that a CPU entering idle would actually be powered off, loosing its state entierely, and would then need to be reinitialized. It turns out that this is not always the case, and some HW performs CPU PM without actually killing the core. In this case, we try to reinitialize KVM while it is still live. It ends up badly, as reported by Andre Przywara (using a Calxeda Midway): [ 3.663897] Kernel panic - not syncing: unexpected prefetch abort in Hyp mode at: 0x685760 [ 3.663897] unexpected data abort in Hyp mode at: 0xc067d150 [ 3.663897] unexpected HVC/SVC trap in Hyp mode at: 0xc0901dd0 The trick here is to detect if we've been through a full re-init or not by looking at HVBAR (VBAR_EL2 on arm64). This involves implementing the backend for __hyp_get_vectors in the main KVM HYP code (rather small), and checking the return value against the default one when the CPU notifier is called on CPU_PM_EXIT.

Read-only large sptes can be created due to read-only faults as follows: - QEMU pagetable entry that maps guest memory is read-only due to COW. - Guest read faults such memory, COW is not broken, because it is a read-only fault. - Enable dirty logging, large spte not nuked because it is read-only. - Write-fault on such memory causes guest to loop endlessly (which must go down to level 1 because dirty logging is enabled).

The driver reads from the DC offset control registers during callibration but since the registers are marked as volatile and there is a register cache the values will not be read from the hardware after the first reading rendering the callibration ineffective. It appears that the driver was originally written for the ASoC level register I/O code but converted to regmap prior to merge and this issue was missed during the conversion as the framework level volatile register functionality was not being used.

According to Documentation/Changes, make 3.80 is still being supported for building the kernel, hence make files must not make (unconditional) use of features introduced only in newer versions. Commit 8779657d ("stackprotector: Introduce CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG") however introduced an "else ifdef" construct which make 3.80 doesn't understand. Also correct a warning message still referencing the old config option name. Apart from that I question the use of "ifdef" here (but it was used that way already prior to said commit): ifeq (,y) would seem more to the point.

Commit 93e6f119 ("ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and locations") added global hardcoded limits to the amount of message queues that can be created. While these limits are per-namespace, reality is that it ends up breaking userspace applications. Historically users have, at least in theory, been able to create up to INT_MAX queues, and limiting it to just 1024 is way too low and dramatic for some workloads and use cases. For instance, Madars reports: "This update imposes bad limits on our multi-process application. As our app uses approaches that each process opens its own set of queues (usually something about 3-5 queues per process). In some scenarios we might run up to 3000 processes or more (which of-course for linux is not a problem). Thus we might need up to 9000 queues or more. All processes run under one user." Other affected users can be found in launchpad bug #1155695: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manpages/+bug/1155695 Instead of increasing this limit, revert it entirely and fallback to the original way of dealing queue limits -- where once a user's resource limit is reached, and all memory is used, new queues cannot be created.
