SCSI: sd: Fix parsing of 'temporary ' cache mode prefix

2013-07-13T17:34:44+00:00

commit 2ee3e26c673e75c05ef8b914f54fadee3d7b9c88 upstream. Commit 39c60a0948cc '[SCSI] sd: fix array cache flushing bug causing performance problems' added temp as a pointer to "temporary " and used sizeof(temp) - 1 as its length. But sizeof(temp) is the size of the pointer, not the size of the string constant. Change temp to a static array so that sizeof() does what was intended.

block: do not pass disk names as format strings

2013-07-13T17:34:43+00:00

commit ffc8b30866879ed9ba62bd0a86fecdbd51cd3d19 upstream. Disk names may contain arbitrary strings, so they must not be interpreted as format strings. It seems that only md allows arbitrary strings to be used for disk names, but this could allow for a local memory corruption from uid 0 into ring 0.

drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c: use kzalloc() for failing hardware

2013-07-13T17:34:43+00:00

commit 542db01579fbb7ea7d1f7bb9ddcef1559df660b2 upstream. In drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c mmc_ioctl_cdrom_read_data() allocates a memory area with kmalloc in line 2885. 2885 cgc->buffer = kmalloc(blocksize, GFP_KERNEL); 2886 if (cgc->buffer == NULL) 2887 return -ENOMEM; In line 2908 we can find the copy_to_user function: 2908 if (!ret && copy_to_user(arg, cgc->buffer, blocksize)) The cgc->buffer is never cleaned and initialized before this function. If ret = 0 with the previous basic block, it's possible to display some memory bytes in kernel space from userspace. When we read a block from the disk it normally fills the ->buffer but if the drive is malfunctioning there is a chance that it would only be partially filled. The result is an leak information to userspace.

pch_uart: fix a deadlock when pch_uart as console

2013-07-03T18:03:24+00:00

commit 384e301e3519599b000c1a2ecd938b533fc15d85 upstream. When we use pch_uart as system console like 'console=ttyPCH0,115200', then 'send break' to it. We'll encounter the deadlock on a cpu/core, with interrupts disabled on the core. When we happen to have all irqs affinity to cpu0 then the deadlock on cpu0 actually deadlock whole system. In pch_uart_interrupt, we have spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags) then call pch_uart_err_ir when break is received. Then the call to dev_err would actually call to pch_console_write then we'll run into another spin_lock(&priv->lock), with interrupts disabled. So in the call sequence lead by pch_uart_interrupt, we should be carefully to call functions that will 'print message to console' only in case the uart port is not being used as serial console.

drm/i915: prefer VBT modes for SVDO-LVDS over EDID

2013-06-20T18:28:20+00:00

commit c3456fb3e4712d0448592af3c5d644c9472cd3c1 upstream. In commit 53d3b4d7778daf15900867336c85d3f8dd70600c Author: Egbert Eich Date: Tue Jun 4 17:13:21 2013 +0200 drm/i915/sdvo: Use &intel_sdvo->ddc instead of intel_sdvo->i2c for DDC Egbert Eich fixed a long-standing bug where we simply used a non-working i2c controller to read the EDID for SDVO-LVDS panels. Unfortunately some machines seem to not be able to cope with the mode provided in the EDID. Specifically they seem to not be able to cope with a 4x pixel mutliplier instead of a 2x one, which seems to have been worked around by slightly changing the panels native mode in the VBT so that the dotclock is just barely above 50MHz. Since it took forever to notice the breakage it's fairly safe to assume that at least for SDVO-LVDS panels the VBT contains fairly sane data. So just switch around the order and use VBT modes first. v2: Also add EDID modes just in case, and spell Egbert correctly. v3: Elaborate a bit more about what's going on on Chris' machine.

ath9k: Disable PowerSave by default

2013-06-20T18:28:20+00:00

commit 531671cb17af07281e6f28c1425f754346e65c41 upstream. Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode) for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link stability.
