There's a small window inside the flush_to_ldisc function,
where the tty is unlocked and calling ldisc's receive_buf
function. If in this window new buffer is added to the tty,
the processing might never leave the flush_to_ldisc function.
This scenario will hog the cpu, causing other tty processing
starving, and making it impossible to interface the computer
via tty.
I was able to exploit this via pty interface by sending only
control characters to the master input, causing the flush_to_ldisc
to be scheduled, but never actually generate any output.
To reproduce, please run multiple instances of following code.
- SNIP
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int i, slave, master = getpt();
char buf[8192];
sprintf(buf, "%s", ptsname(master));
grantpt(master);
unlockpt(master);
slave = open(buf, O_RDWR);
if (slave < 0) {
perror("open slave failed");
return 1;
}
for(i = 0; i < sizeof(buf); i++)
buf[i] = rand() % 32;
while(1) {
write(master, buf, sizeof(buf));
}
return 0;
}
- SNIP
The attached patch (based on -next tree) fixes this by checking on the
tty buffer tail. Once it's reached, the current work is rescheduled
and another could run.

Unmap the rx buffer before mapping the new one in rtl8192_rx.
Failing to do so quickly exhausts the IOMMU memory during downloads:
[...] DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 9100 bytes at device ...
Using "iommu=off mem=4g" also fixes the problem because
then pci_map_single does not allocate memory.
Tested on my personal laptop with a RTL8192E device. Without this
patch the kernel quickly runs out of IOMMU memory (downloading 5 MB
of data is sufficient to trigger it), with this patch applied
I haven't experienced any issues so far.

This fixes some places that dereference user pointers directly instead
of using get_user().
Please especially check my changes to IOCTL_BCM_GET_CURRENT_STATUS. The
original code modified the struct which "arg" was pointing to. I think
this was a bug in the original code and that we only wanted to write to
the OutputBuffer. Also with the original code you could read as much
memory as you wanted so I had to put a cap on OutputLength. The only
value of OutputLength that makes sense is sizeof(LINK_STATE) so now if
OutputLength is not sizeof(LINK_STATE) it returns -EINVAL.

This silences all the sparse warnings in intel_sst_app_interface.c.
It was just a matter of adding __user annotations, I didn't find any
real bugs here. Quite a few of these were needed for stuff I added
earlier, sorry about that.
I removed a couple casts to (void *) that caused a warning like:
drivers/staging/intel_sst/intel_sst_app_interface.c:606:27:
warning: cast removes address space of expression
For example sst_drv_ctx->mailbox is already declared as
"void __iomem *mailbox" so casting it to void pointer isn't necessary
and it makes sparse complain because it removes the __user attribute.

This is another patch about copying data to the kernel before using it.
SNDRV_SST_STREAM_DECODE is sort of tricky because we need to do a
copy_from_user() that gives us another two pointers and we have copy
those. Those again give us some more pointers that we have to copy.
Besides those problems, the code had a stack overflow:
- struct snd_sst_buff_entry ibuf_temp[param->ibufs->entries],
- obuf_temp[param->obufs->entries];
param->ibufs->entries comes from the user.

This is another patch about making a copy of the data into kernel space
before using it. It is easy to trigger a kernel oops in the original
code. If you passed a NULL to SNDRV_SST_SET_TARGET_DEVICE then it
called BUG_ON(). And SNDRV_SST_DRIVER_INFO would let you write the
information to arbitrary memory locations which is a security violation.

This code dereferences user supplied pointers directly instead of doing
a copy_from_user(). Some kernel configs put user and kernel memory in
different address spaces so this code isn't portable. Also the user
memory could be swapped out or in this case the pointer could just be
NULL leading to an oops.
Another thing is that it makes permission tests like this sort of
meaningless.
if (minor == STREAM_MODULE && rec_mute->stream_id == 0) {
retval = -EPERM;
break;
}
The user could set stream_id to 1 for the test and then change it later.

Followup of commit ef885afbf8 (net: use rcu_barrier() in

dst_dev_event() scans a garbage dst list that might be feeded by various
network notifiers at device dismantle time.
Its important to call dst_dev_event() after other notifiers, or we might
enter the infamous msleep(250) in netdev_wait_allrefs(), and wait one
second before calling again call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
dev) to properly remove last device references.
Use priority -10 to let dst_dev_notifier be called after other network
notifiers (they have the default 0 priority)

As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to

merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().
Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.

The Inventra DMA engine in version 1.8 and later of the MUSB
controller cannot handle DMA addresses that are not aligned
to a 4 byte boundary. It ends up ignoring the last two bits
programmed in the DMA_ADDR register. This is a deliberate
design change in the controller and is documented in the
programming guide.
Earlier versions of the controller could handle these
accesses just fine.
Fail dma_channel_program if we see an unaligned address when
using the newer controllers, so that the caller can carry out
the transfer using PIO mode.
