uio: Fix an Oops on load

2018-11-27T15:10:51+00:00

commit 432798195bbce1f8cd33d1c0284d0538835e25fb upstream. I was trying to solve a double free but I introduced a more serious NULL dereference bug. The problem is that if there is an IRQ which triggers immediately, then we need "info->uio_dev" but it's not set yet. This patch puts the original initialization back to how it was and just sets info->uio_dev to NULL on the error path so it should solve both the Oops and the double free.

uio: ensure class is registered before devices

2018-11-13T19:14:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit ae61cf5b9913027c6953a79ed3894da4f47061bd ] When both uio and the uio drivers are built in the kernel, it is possible for a driver to register devices before the uio class is registered. This may result in a NULL pointer dereference later on in get_device_parent() when accessing the class glue_dirs spinlock. The trace looks like that: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000140 [...] [] _raw_spin_lock+0x14/0x48 [] device_add+0x154/0x6a0 [] device_create_groups_vargs+0x120/0x128 [] device_create+0x54/0x60 [] __uio_register_device+0x120/0x4a8 [] jaguar2_pci_probe+0x2d4/0x558 [] local_pci_probe+0x3c/0xb8 [] pci_device_probe+0x11c/0x180 [] driver_probe_device+0x22c/0x2d8 [] __driver_attach+0xbc/0xc0 [] bus_for_each_dev+0x4c/0x98 [] driver_attach+0x20/0x28 [] bus_add_driver+0x1b8/0x228 [] driver_register+0x60/0xf8 [] __pci_register_driver+0x40/0x48 Return EPROBE_DEFER in that case so the driver can register the device later.

uio: potential double frees if __uio_register_device() fails

2018-09-19T20:43:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit f019f07ecf6a6b8bd6d7853bce70925d90af02d1 ] The uio_unregister_device() function assumes that if "info->uio_dev" is non-NULL that means "info" is fully allocated. Setting info->uio_de has to be the last thing in the function. In the current code, if request_threaded_irq() fails then we return with info->uio_dev set to non-NULL but info is not fully allocated and it can lead to double frees.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

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. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

uio/uio_pci_generic: don't fail probe if pdev->irq == NULL

2017-05-18T14:59:06+00:00

Some userspace drivers and frameworks only poll and do not require interrupts to be available and enabled on the PCI device. So remove the requirement that an IRQ is assigned. If an IRQ is not assigned and a userspace driver tries to read()/write(), the generic uio framework will just return -EIO. This allows binding uio_pci_generic to devices which cannot get an IRQ assigned, such as an NVMe controller behind Intel Volume Management Device (VMD), since VMD does not support INTx interrupts.

uio: fix incorrect memory leak cleanup

2017-05-16T21:06:41+00:00

Commit 75f0aef6220d ("uio: fix memory leak") has fixed up some memory leaks during the failure paths of the addition of uio attributes, but still is not correct entirely. A kobject_uevent() failure still needs a kobject_put() and the kobject container structure allocation failure before the kobject_init() doesn't need a kobject_put(). Fix this properly.

uio_mf624: Align memory regions to page size and set correct offsets

2017-04-08T16:13:28+00:00

mf624 card has its registers not aligned to pages. Since commit b65502879556 ("uio: we cannot mmap unaligned page contents") mmap()ing mf624 registers fails, because now the uio drivers must set uio_mem->addr to be page-aligned. We align the address here and set the newly introduced offs field to the offset of the mf264 registers within the page so that userspace can find the address of the mmap()ed register by reading /sys/class/uio/uio?/maps/map?/offset. Tested with real mf624 card. Signed-off-by: Michal Sojka Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
