swiotlb_alloc() calls dma_direct_alloc(), which can satisfy lower than 32-bit DMA mask requests using GFP_DMA if the architecture supports it. Various x86 drivers rely on that, so we need to support that. At the same time the whole kernel expects a 32-bit DMA mask to just work, so the other magic in swiotlb_dma_supported() isn't actually needed either.

This reverts commit 48282969 which caused the following issues: 1. On T460p with BIOS version 2.22 touchpad and trackpoint stop working after suspend-resume cycle. Due to strange state of the device another suspend is impossible. The following dmesg errors can be observed: thinkpad_acpi: EC reports that Thermal Table has changed rmi4_smbus 7-002c: failed to get SMBus version number! rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_reset_handler: Failed to read current IRQ mask. rmi4_f01 rmi4-00.fn01: Failed to restore normal operation: -16. rmi4_f01 rmi4-00.fn01: Resume failed with code -16. rmi4_physical rmi4-00: Failed to suspend functions: -16 rmi4_smbus 7-002c: Failed to resume device: -16 PM: resume devices took 0.640 seconds rmi4_f03 rmi4-00.fn03: rmi_f03_pt_write: Failed to write to F03 TX register (-16). rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_clear_irq_bits: Failed to change enabled interrupts! rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_set_irq_bits: Failed to change enabled interrupts! psmouse: probe of serio3 failed with error -1 2. On another T460p with BIOS version 2.15 two finger scrolling gesture on the touchpad stops working after suspend-resume cycle (about 75% reproducibility, when it still works, the scrolling gesture becomes laggy). Nothing suspicious appears in the dmesg. Analysis form Richard Schütz: "RMI is unreliable on the ThinkPad T460p because the device is affected by the firmware behavior addressed in a7ae8195 ("i2c: i801: Allow ACPI SystemIO OpRegion to conflict with PCI BAR")."

when a system call is interrupted we might call the critical section cleanup handler that re-does some of the operations. When we are between .Lsysc_vtime and .Lsysc_do_svc we might also redo the saving of the problem state registers r0-r7: .Lcleanup_system_call: [...] 0: # update accounting time stamp mvc __LC_LAST_UPDATE_TIMER(8),__LC_SYNC_ENTER_TIMER # set up saved register r11 lg %r15,__LC_KERNEL_STACK la %r9,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD(%r15) stg %r9,24(%r11) # r11 pt_regs pointer # fill pt_regs mvc __PT_R8(64,%r9),__LC_SAVE_AREA_SYNC ---> stmg %r0,%r7,__PT_R0(%r9) The problem is now, that we might have already zeroed out r0. The fix is to move the zeroing of r0 after sysc_do_svc.

Due to an oversight when refactoring siginfo_t si_pkey has been in the wrong position since 4.16-rc1. Add an explicit check of the offset of every user space field in siginfo_t and compat_siginfo_t to make a mistake like this hard to make in the future. I have run this code on 4.15 and 4.16-rc1 with the position of si_pkey fixed and all of the fields show up in the same location. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

The change moving addr_lsb into the _sigfault union failed to take into account that _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower being a pointer forced the entire union to have pointer alignment. In practice this only mattered for the offset of si_pkey which is why this has taken so long to discover. To correct this change _dummy_pkey and _dummy_bnd to have pointer type.

PPP units don't hold any reference on the channels connected to it. It is the channel's responsibility to ensure that it disconnects from its unit before being destroyed. In practice, this is ensured by ppp_unregister_channel() disconnecting the channel from the unit before dropping a reference on the channel. However, it is possible for an unregistered channel to connect to a PPP unit: register a channel with ppp_register_net_channel(), attach a /dev/ppp file to it with ioctl(PPPIOCATTCHAN), unregister the channel with ppp_unregister_channel() and finally connect the /dev/ppp file to a PPP unit with ioctl(PPPIOCCONNECT). Once in this situation, the channel is only held by the /dev/ppp file, which can be released at anytime and free the channel without letting the parent PPP unit know. Then the ppp structure ends up with dangling pointers in its ->channels list. Prevent this scenario by forbidding unregistered channels from connecting to PPP units. This maintains the code logic by keeping ppp_unregister_channel() responsible from disconnecting the channel if necessary and avoids modification on the reference counting mechanism. This issue seems to predate git history (successfully reproduced on Linux 2.6.26 and earlier PPP commits are unrelated). Signed-off-by: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

Daniel Axtens says: ==================== GSO_BY_FRAGS correctness improvements As requested [1], I went through and had a look at users of gso_size to see if there were things that need to be fixed to consider GSO_BY_FRAGS, and I have tried to improve our helper functions to deal with this case. I found a few. This fixes bugs relating to the use of skb_gso_*_seglen() where GSO_BY_FRAGS is not considered. Patch 1 renames skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len. This is follow-up to my earlier patch 2b16f048 ("net: create skb_gso_validate_mac_len()"), and just makes everything a bit clearer. Patches 2 and 3 replace the final users of skb_gso_network_seglen() - which doesn't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS - with skb_gso_validate_network_len(), which does. This allows me to make the skb_gso_*_seglen functions private in patch 4 - now future users won't accidentally do the wrong comparison. Two things remain. One is qdisc_pkt_len_init, which is discussed at [2] - it's caught up in the GSO_DODGY mess. I don't have any expertise in GSO_DODGY, and it looks like a good clean fix will involve unpicking the whole validation mess, so I have left it for now. Secondly, there are 3 eBPF opcodes that change the gso_size of an SKB and don't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS. This is going through the bpf tree. Regards, Daniel [1] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/comment/1852414/ [2] https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg482397.html PS: This is all in the core networking stack. For a driver to be affected by this it would need to support NETIF_F_GSO_SCTP / NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE and then either use gso_size or not be a purely virtual device. (Many drivers look at gso_size, but do not support SCTP segmentation, so the core network will segment an SCTP gso before it hits them.) Based on that, the only driver that may be affected is sunvnet, but I have no way of testing it, so I haven't looked at it. v2: split out bpf stuff fix review comments from Dave Miller ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
