When resizing a vt its selection may exceed the new size, resulting in an invalid memory access [1]. Clear the selection before resizing.

The regmap_update first reads the IOState register and then triggers a write if needed. However, GPIOS might be configured as an input so the read to IOState on this GPIO is the current state which might be random.

The commit 4fe0d154 ("PCI: Use positive flags in pci_alloc_irq_vectors()") replaces flags from negative to positive values which makes mandatory to have the last argument in pci_alloc_irq_vectors() non-zero (if we want to be no-op). This basically drops MSI enabling in 8250_lpss driver. Restore desired behaviour in 8250_lpss by passing PCI_IRQ_ALL_TYPES instead of 0 to pci_alloc_irq_vectors().

Commit 761ed4a9 ('tty: serial_core: convert uart_close to use tty_port_close') started setting the ttyport console flag for serial drivers. This is causing crashes, hangs, or garbage output on several platforms because the serial shutdown is skipped and IRQs are left enabled. Partially revert commit 761ed4a9 and drop reporting UART tty_ports as a console leaving the console handling to the serial_core as it was before.

KVM/ARM updates for 4.9-rc2 - Handle faults generated by the page table walker as being writes - Map the BSS at EL2
-
Marc Zyngier authored
When used with a compiler that doesn't implement "asm goto" (such as the AArch64 port of GCC 4.8), jump labels generate a memory access to find out about the value of the key (instead of just patching the code). The key itself is likely to be stored in the BSS. This is perfectly fine, except that we don't map the BSS at HYP, leading to an exploding kernel at the first access. The obvious fix is simply to map the BSS there (which should have been done a long while ago, but hey...).

Will Deacon authored
The WnR bit in the HSR/ESR_EL2 indicates whether a data abort was generated by a read or a write instruction. For stage 2 data aborts generated by a stage 1 translation table walk (i.e. the actual page table access faults at EL2), the WnR bit therefore reports whether the instruction generating the walk was a load or a store, *not* whether the page table walker was reading or writing the entry. For page tables marked as read-only at stage 2 (e.g. due to KSM merging them with the tables from another guest), this could result in livelock, where a page table walk generated by a load instruction attempts to set the access flag in the stage 1 descriptor, but fails to trigger CoW in the host since only a read fault is reported. This patch modifies the arm64 kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite function to take into account stage 2 faults in stage 1 walks. Since DBM cannot be disabled at EL2 for CPUs that implement it, we assume that these faults are always causes by writes, avoiding the livelock situation at the expense of occasional, spurious CoWs. We could, in theory, do a bit better by checking the guest TCR configuration and inspecting the page table to see why the PTE faulted. However, I doubt this is measurable in practice, and the threat of livelock is real.
