      treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*() · 292a089d
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored
      Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
      shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
      called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
      longer be re-armed.
      
      The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
      del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
      object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
      the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
      as that is not considered a "trivial" case.
      
      This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
      commands:
      
          $ cat timer.cocci
          @@
          expression ptr, slab;
          identifier timer, rfield;
          @@
          (
          -       del_timer(&ptr->timer);
          +       timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer);
          |
          -       del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer);
          +       timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer);
          )
            ... when strict
                when != ptr->timer
          (
                  kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield);
          |
                  kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr);
          |
                  kfree(ptr);
          )
      
          $ spatch timer.cocci . > /tmp/t.patch
          $ patch -p1 < /tmp/t.patch

      ALSA: emux: Add support of loading GUS-patch · e42dd3ee
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      It's a feature request for the ancient sutff, but it's still valid;
      the loading of a GUS-patch isn't available via hwdep device although
      it's supported over OSS sequencer.  The only missing piece is the call
      of snd_soundfont_load_guspatch() in synth emux hwdep code.

      ALSA: emux: Fix potential Spectre v1 vulnerabilities · 4aea96f4
      Gustavo A. R. Silva authored and Takashi Iwai's avatar Takashi Iwai committed
      info.mode and info.port are indirectly controlled by user-space,
      hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1
      vulnerability.
      
      These issues were detected with the help of Smatch:
      
      sound/synth/emux/emux_hwdep.c:72 snd_emux_hwdep_misc_mode() warn: potential spectre issue 'emu->portptrs[i]->ctrls' [w] (local cap)
      sound/synth/emux/emux_hwdep.c:75 snd_emux_hwdep_misc_mode() warn: potential spectre issue 'emu->portptrs' [w] (local cap)
      sound/synth/emux/emux_hwdep.c:75 snd_emux_hwdep_misc_mode() warn: potential spectre issue 'emu->portptrs[info.port]->ctrls' [w] (local cap)
      
      Fix this by sanitizing both info.mode and info.port before using them
      to index emu->portptrs[i]->ctrls, emu->portptrs[info.port]->ctrls and
      emu->portptrs.
      
      Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
      to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
      completed with a dependent load/store [1].

      ALSA: synth: Remove empty init and exit · c000c4f1
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      For a sake of code simplification, remove the init and the exit
      entries that do nothing.
      
      Notes for readers: actually it's OK to remove *both* init and exit,
      but not OK to remove the exit entry.  By removing only the exit while
      keeping init, the module becomes permanently loaded; i.e. you cannot
      unload it any longer!

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      ALSA: Fix forgotten dependency fix for tristate OSS sequencer kconfig · f03293d8
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      In the commit 3d774d5e ("ALSA: seq: Allow the tristate build of
      OSS emulation") we changed CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS to tristate, but a
      couple of places were forgotten, namely, opl3 and emux Makefile.
      These contain the line like
        snd-opl3-synth-$(CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS) += opl3_oss.o
      and this doesn't work any longer as expected because snd-opl3-synth
      can be built-in while CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=m.
      
      This patch fixes these places to build properly for the new kconfig
      dependency.  In the end, we had to use ifneq() to satisfy the
      requirement.  It's a bit ugly, but lesser evil.

      ALSA: seq: Allow the tristate build of OSS emulation · 3d774d5e
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      Currently OSS sequencer emulation is tied with ALSA sequencer core,
      both are built in the same level; i.e. when CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=y,
      the OSS sequencer emulation is also always built-in, even though the
      functionality can be built as an individual module.
      
      This patch changes the rule and allows users to build snd-seq-oss
      module while others are built-in.  Essentially, it's just a few simple
      changes in Kconfig and Makefile.  Some driver codes like opl3 need to
      convert from the simple ifdef to IS_ENABLED().  But that's all.
      
      You might wonder how about the dependency: right, it can be messy, but
      it still works.  Since we rewrote the sequencer binding with the
      standard bus, the driver can be bound at any time on demand.  So, the
      synthesizer driver module can be loaded individually from the OSS
      emulation core before/after it.

      ALSA: synth: Fix conflicting OSS device registration on AWE32 · 225db576
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      When OSS emulation is loaded on ISA SB AWE32 chip, we get now kernel
      warnings like:
        WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2791 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x51/0x80()
        sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/isa/sbawe.0/sound/card0/seq-oss-0-0'
      
      It's because both emux synth and opl3 drivers try to register their
      OSS device object with the same static index number 0.  This hasn't
      been a big problem until the recent rewrite of device management code
      (that exposes sysfs at the same time), but it's been an obvious bug.
      
      This patch works around it just by using a different index number of
      emux synth object.  There can be a more elegant way to fix, but it's
      enough for now, as this code won't be touched so often, in anyway.

      ALSA: emux: Fix mutex deadlock in OSS emulation · 1c94e65c
      Takashi Iwai authored
      
      The OSS emulation in synth-emux helper has a potential AB/BA deadlock
      at the simultaneous closing and opening:
      
        close ->
          snd_seq_release() ->
            sne_seq_free_client() ->
              snd_seq_delete_all_ports(): takes client->ports_mutex ->

      	    snd_emux_unuse(): takes emux->register_mutex
      
        open ->
          snd_seq_oss_open() ->
            snd_emux_open_seq_oss(): takes emux->register_mutex ->
              snd_seq_event_port_attach() ->
      	  snd_seq_create_port(): takes client->ports_mutex
      
      This patch addresses the deadlock by reducing the rance taking
      emux->register_mutex in snd_emux_open_seq_oss().  The lock is needed
      for the refcount handling, so move it locally.  The calls in
      emux_seq.c are already with the mutex, thus they are replaced with the
      version without mutex lock/unlock.

      The emux-synth driver has a possible AB/BA mutex deadlock at unloading

        snd_emux_free() ->

              snd_emux_unuse(): mutex_lock(&emu->register_mutex)
      
      Basically snd_emux_detach_seq() doesn't need a protection of
      emu->register_mutex as it's already being unregistered.  So, we can
      get rid of this for avoiding the deadlock.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.
