  • Don't build the blackfin gptimers-example module when BFIN_GPTIMERS
    is not enabled. Allow the build when BFIN_GPTIMERS is =y or =m.

    I believe that this patch fixes these build errors, but I don't
    have a build environment to test this.

  • Modifying a non-existent slot is not allowed. Also check that the

  • Before commit 0e60b0799fed (kvm: change memslot sorting rule from size
    to GFN, 2014-12-01), the memslots' sorting key was npages, meaning
    that a valid memslot couldn't have its sorting key equal to zero.
    On the other hand, a valid memslot can have base_gfn == 0, and invalid
    memslots are identified by base_gfn == npages == 0.

    Because of this, commit 0e60b0799fed broke the invariant that invalid
    memslots are at the end of the mslots array. When a memslot with
    base_gfn == 0 was created, any invalid memslot before it were left
    in place.

    This can be fixed by changing the insertion to use a ">=" comparison
    instead of "

  • The total stream number of Skylake's input and output stream
    exceeds 15, which will cause some streams do not work because
    of the overflow on SDxCTL.STRM field if using the legacy

    the flag AZX_DCAPS_SEPARATE_STREAM_TAG for Skylake platform.

  • Implemented separate stream_tag assignment for input and output streams.
    According to hda specification stream tag must be unique throughout the
    input streams group, however an output stream might use a stream tag
    which is already in use by an input stream. This change is necessary
    to support HW which provides a total of more than 15 stream DMA engines
    which with legacy implementation causes an overflow on SDxCTL.STRM
    field (and the whole SDxCTL register) and as a result usage of
    Reserved value 0 in the SDxCTL.STRM field which confuses HDA controller.

    fixes a problem with old userspace tools (this was broken for a

    correctly, and one fixes a problem with PID based filters.

  • A regression was caused by commit 780a7654cee8:
    audit: Make testing for a valid loginuid explicit.
    (which in turn attempted to fix a regression caused by e1760bd)

    When audit_krule_to_data() fills in the rules to get a listing, there was a
    missing clause to convert back from AUDIT_LOGINUID_SET to AUDIT_LOGINUID.

    This broke userspace by not returning the same information that was sent and
    expected.

    The rule:
    auditctl -a exit,never -F auid=-1
    gives:
    auditctl -l
    LIST_RULES: exit,never f24=0 syscall=all
    when it should give:
    LIST_RULES: exit,never auid=-1 (0xffffffff) syscall=all

    Tag it so that it is reported the same way it was set. Create a new
    private flags audit_krule field (pflags) to store it that won't interact with
    the public one from the API.

  • On arm64 the TTBR0_EL1 register is set to either the reserved TTBR0
    page tables on boot or to the active_mm mappings belonging to user space
    processes, it must never be set to swapper_pg_dir page tables mappings.

    When a CPU is booted its active_mm is set to init_mm even though its
    TTBR0_EL1 points at the reserved TTBR0 page mappings. This implies
    that when __cpu_suspend is triggered the active_mm can point at
    init_mm even if the current TTBR0_EL1 register contains the reserved
    TTBR0_EL1 mappings.

    Therefore, the mm save and restore executed in __cpu_suspend might
    turn out to be erroneous in that, if the current->active_mm corresponds
    to init_mm, on resume from low power it ends up restoring in the
    TTBR0_EL1 the init_mm mappings that are global and can cause speculation
    of TLB entries which end up being propagated to user space.

    This patch fixes the issue by checking the active_mm pointer before
    restoring the TTBR0 mappings. If the current active_mm == &init_mm,
    the code sets the TTBR0_EL1 to the reserved TTBR0 mapping instead of
    switching back to the active_mm, which is the expected behaviour
    corresponding to the TTBR0_EL1 settings when __cpu_suspend was entered.
