[ Upstream commit 678e2b44c8e3fec3afc7202f1996a4500a50be93 ]

The problem is seen in the q6asm_dai_compr_set_params() function:

	ret = q6asm_map_memory_regions(dir, prtd-&gt;audio_client, prtd-&gt;phys,
				       (prtd-&gt;pcm_size / prtd-&gt;periods),
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
				       prtd-&gt;periods);

In this code prtd-&gt;pcm_size is the buffer_size and prtd-&gt;periods comes
from params-&gt;buffer.fragments.  If we allow the number of fragments to
be zero then it results in a divide by zero bug.  One possible fix would
be to use prtd-&gt;pcm_count directly instead of using the division to
re-calculate it.  But I decided that it doesn't really make sense to
allow zero fragments.

commit 94ffb030b6d31ec840bb811be455dd2e26a4f43e upstream.

stream is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

sound/core/pcm.c:140 snd_pcm_control_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'pcm-&gt;streams' [r] (local cap)

Fix this by sanitizing stream before using it to index pcm-&gt;streams

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].

commit b51abed8355e5556886623b2772fa6b7598d2282 upstream.

Currently the PCM core calls snd_pcm_unlink() always unconditionally
at closing a stream.  However, since snd_pcm_unlink() invokes the
global rwsem down, the lock can be easily contended.  More badly, when
a thread runs in a high priority RT-FIFO, it may stall at spinning.

Basically the call of snd_pcm_unlink() is required only for the linked
streams that are already rare occasion.  For normal use cases, this
code path is fairly superfluous.

As an optimization (and also as a workaround for the RT problem
above in normal situations without linked streams), this patch adds a
check before calling snd_pcm_unlink() and calls it only when needed.

commit b888a5f713e4d17faaaff24316585a4eb07f35b7 upstream.

Commit 67ec1072b053 ("ALSA: pcm: Fix rwsem deadlock for non-atomic PCM
stream") fixes deadlock for non-atomic PCM stream. But, This patch
causes antother stuck.
If writer is RT thread and reader is a normal thread, the reader
thread will be difficult to get scheduled. It may not give chance to
release readlocks and writer gets stuck for a long time if they are
pinned to single cpu.

The deadlock described in the previous commit is because the linux
rwsem queues like a FIFO. So, we might need non-FIFO writelock, not
non-block one.

My suggestion is that the writer gives reader a chance to be scheduled
by using the minimum msleep() instaed of spinning without blocking by
writer. Also, The *_nonblock may be changed to *_nonfifo appropriately
to this concept.
In terms of performance, when trylock is failed, this minimum periodic
msleep will have the same performance as the tick-based
schedule()/wake_up_q().

[ Although this has a fairly high performance penalty, the relevant
  code path became already rare due to the previous commit ("ALSA:
  pcm: Call snd_pcm_unlink() conditionally at closing").  That is, now
  this unconditional msleep appears only when using linked streams,
  and this must be a rare case.  So we accept this as a quick
  workaround until finding a more suitable one -- tiwai ]

commit e1a7bfe3807974e66f971f2589d4e0197ec0fced upstream.

The procedure for adding a user control element has some window opened
for race against the concurrent removal of a user element.  This was
caught by syzkaller, hitting a KASAN use-after-free error.

This patch addresses the bug by wrapping the whole procedure to add a
user control element with the card-&gt;controls_rwsem, instead of only
around the increment of card-&gt;user_ctl_count.

This required a slight code refactoring, too.  The function
snd_ctl_add() is split to two parts: a core function to add the
control element and a part calling it.  The former is called from the
function for adding a user control element inside the controls_rwsem.

One change to be noted is that snd_ctl_notify() for adding a control
element gets called inside the controls_rwsem as well while it was
called outside the rwsem.  But this should be OK, as snd_ctl_notify()
takes another (finer) rwlock instead of rwsem, and the call of
snd_ctl_notify() inside rwsem is already done in another code path.

commit 65766ee0bf7fe8b3be80e2e1c3ef54ad59b29476 upstream.

PCM OSS layer may allocate a few temporary buffers, one for the core
read/write and another for the conversions via plugins.  Currently
both are allocated via vmalloc().  But as the allocation size is
equivalent with the PCM period size, the required size might be quite
small, depending on the application.

This patch replaces these vmalloc() calls with kvzalloc() for covering
small period sizes better.  Also, we use "z"-alloc variant here for
addressing the possible uninitialized access reported by syzkaller.

syzbot reported the uninitialized value exposure in certain situations
using virmidi loop.  It's likely a very small race at writing and
reading, and the influence is almost negligible.  But it's safer to
paper over this just by replacing the existing kvmalloc() with
kvzalloc().

<content type='text'>
The recent change to move the virmidi output processing to a work
slightly modified the code to discard the unsubscribed outputs so that
it works without a temporary buffer.  However, this is actually buggy,
and may spew a kernel warning due to the unexpected call of
snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack(), as triggered by syzbot.

This patch takes back to the original code in that part, use a
temporary buffer and simply repeat snd_rawmidi_transmit(), in order to
address the regression.

to find.
