| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If there isn't a DT alias then of_alias_get_id() will return -ENODEV. This will cause the msm_serial driver to fail probe, when we want to keep the previous behavior where we generated a dynamic line number at probe time. Restore this behavior by generating a dynamic id if the line number is still negative after checking for an alias or in the non-DT case looking at the .id field of the platform device.

Beginning with the USB PLL7 the code started to initialize the PLL's itself (using imx_clk_pllv3). However, since commit dc4805c2e78ba5a22ea1632f3e3e4ee601a1743b (ARM: imx: remove ENABLE and BYPASS bits from clk-pllv3 driver) imx_clk_pllv3 no longer takes care of the ENABLE and BYPASS bits, hence the USB PLL were not configured correctly anymore. This patch not only fixes those USB PLL's, but also makes use of the imx_clk_pllv3 for all PLL's and alignes the code with the PLL support of the i.MX6 series.

Rework the parsers to make sure that doesn't happen. At the same time add new test cases to make sure the functions behave themselves. The original implementations of of_property_read_string_index() and of_property_count_strings() both open-coded the same block of parsing code, each with it's own subtly different bugs. The fix here merges functions into a single helper and makes the original functions static inline wrappers around the helper. One non-bugfix aspect of this patch is the addition of a new wrapper, of_property_read_string_array(). The new wrapper is needed by the device_properties feature that Rafael is working on and planning to merge for v3.19. The implementation is identical both with and without the new static inline wrapper, so it just got left in to reduce the churn on the header file.

It can be reproduced in following test: path 1: Add first child device device_add() get_device_parent() /*find parent from glue_dirs.list*/ list_for_each_entry(k, &dev->class->p->glue_dirs.list, entry) if (k->parent == parent_kobj) { kobj = kobject_get(k); break; } .... class_dir_create_and_add() path2: Remove last child device under glue dir device_del() cleanup_device_parent() cleanup_glue_dir() kobject_put(glue_dir); If path2 has been called cleanup_glue_dir(), but not call kobject_put(glue_dir), the glue dir is still in parent's kset list. Meanwhile, path1 find the glue dir from the glue_dirs.list. Path2 may release glue dir before path1 call kobject_get(). So kernel will report the warning and bug_on. This is a "classic" problem we have of a kref in a list that can be found while the last instance could be removed at the same time. This patch reuse gdp_mutex to fix this race condition. The following calltrace is captured in kernel 3.4, but the latest kernel still has this bug. ----------------------------------------------------- <4>[ 3965.441471] WARNING: at ...include/linux/kref.h:41 kobject_get+0x33/0x40() <4>[ 3965.441474] Hardware name: Romley <4>[ 3965.441475] Modules linked in: isd_iop(O) isd_xda(O)... ... <4>[ 3965.441605] Call Trace: <4>[ 3965.441611] [<ffffffff8103717a>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7a/0xb0 <4>[ 3965.441615] [<ffffffff810371c5>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x20 <4>[ 3965.441618] [<ffffffff81215963>] kobject_get+0x33/0x40 <4>[ 3965.441624] [<ffffffff812d1e45>] get_device_parent.isra.11+0x135/0x1f0 <4>[ 3965.441627] [<ffffffff812d22d4>] device_add+0xd4/0x6d0 <4>[ 3965.441631] [<ffffffff812d0dbc>] ? dev_set_name+0x3c/0x40 .... <2>[ 3965.441912] kernel BUG at ..../fs/sysfs/group.c:65! <4>[ 3965.441915] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ... <4>[ 3965.686743] [<ffffffff811a677e>] sysfs_create_group+0xe/0x10 <4>[ 3965.686748] [<ffffffff810cfb04>] blk_trace_init_sysfs+0x14/0x20 <4>[ 3965.686753] [<ffffffff811fcabb>] blk_register_queue+0x3b/0x120 <4>[ 3965.686756] [<ffffffff812030bc>] add_disk+0x1cc/0x490 .... ------------------------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: Yijing Wang <wangyijing@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Weng Meiling <wengmeiling.weng@huawei.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> #3.4+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Commit 959d2952d124 ("staging:iio: make iio_sw_buffer_preenable much more general.") introduced a restriction that requires that the set of channels that is passed to iio_buffer_register() is a subset of the channels assigned to the IIO device as the IIO core will use the list of channels that is assigned to the device to lookup a channel by scan index in iio_compute_scan_bytes(). If it can not find the channel the function will crash. This patch fixes the issue by making sure that the same set of channels is assigned to the IIO device and passed to iio_buffer_register(). Note that we need to remove the IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW and IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE info attributes from the channels since we don't actually want those to be registered.

Commit 959d2952d124 ("staging:iio: make iio_sw_buffer_preenable much more general.") introduced a restriction that requires that the set of channels that is passed to iio_buffer_register() is a subset of the channels assigned to the IIO device as the IIO core will use the list of channels that is assigned to the device to lookup a channel by scan index in iio_compute_scan_bytes(). If it can not find the channel the function will crash. This patch fixes the issue by making sure that the same set of channels is assigned to the IIO device and passed to iio_buffer_register(). Fixes the follow NULL pointer derefernce kernel crash: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000016 pgd = d53d0000 [00000016] *pgd=1534e831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 1626 Comm: bash Not tainted 3.15.0-19969-g2a180eb-dirty #9545 task: d6c124c0 ti: d539a000 task.ti: d539a000 PC is at iio_compute_scan_bytes+0x34/0xa8 LR is at iio_compute_scan_bytes+0x34/0xa8 pc : [<c03052e4>] lr : [<c03052e4>] psr: 60070013 sp : d539beb8 ip : 00000001 fp : 00000000 r10: 00000002 r9 : 00000000 r8 : 00000001 r7 : 00000000 r6 : d6dc8800 r5 : d7571000 r4 : 00000002 r3 : d7571000 r2 : 00000044 r1 : 00000001 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nZCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment user Control: 18c5387d Table: 153d004a DAC: 00000015 Process bash (pid: 1626, stack limit = 0xd539a240) Stack: (0xd539beb8 to 0xd539c000) bea0: c02fc0e4 d7571000 bec0: d76c1640 d6dc8800 d757117c 00000000 d757112c c0305b04 d76c1690 d76c1640 bee0: d7571188 00000002 00000000 d7571000 d539a000 00000000 000dd1c8 c0305d54 bf00: d7571010 0160b868 00000002 c69d3900 d7573278 d7573308 c69d3900 c01ece90 bf20: 00000002 c0103fac c0103f6c d539bf88 00000002 c69d3b00 c69d3b0c c0103468 bf40: 00000000 00000000 d7694a00 00000002 000af408 d539bf88 c000dd84 c00b2f94 bf60: d7694a00 000af408 00000002 d7694a00 d7694a00 00000002 000af408 c000dd84 bf80: 00000000 c00b32d0 00000000 00000000 00000002 b6f1aa78 00000002 000af408 bfa0: 00000004 c000dc00 b6f1aa78 00000002 00000001 000af408 00000002 00000000 bfc0: b6f1aa78 00000002 000af408 00000004 be806a4c 000a6094 00000000 000dd1c8 bfe0: 00000000 be8069cc b6e8ab77 b6ec125c 40070010 00000001 22940489 154a5007 [<c03052e4>] (iio_compute_scan_bytes) from [<c0305b04>] (__iio_update_buffers+0x248/0x438) [<c0305b04>] (__iio_update_buffers) from [<c0305d54>] (iio_buffer_store_enable+0x60/0x7c) [<c0305d54>] (iio_buffer_store_enable) from [<c01ece90>] (dev_attr_store+0x18/0x24) [<c01ece90>] (dev_attr_store) from [<c0103fac>] (sysfs_kf_write+0x40/0x4c) [<c0103fac>] (sysfs_kf_write) from [<c0103468>] (kernfs_fop_write+0x110/0x154) [<c0103468>] (kernfs_fop_write) from [<c00b2f94>] (vfs_write+0xd0/0x160) [<c00b2f94>] (vfs_write) from [<c00b32d0>] (SyS_write+0x40/0x78) [<c00b32d0>] (SyS_write) from [<c000dc00>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x30) Code: ea00000e e1a01008 e1a00005 ebfff6fc (e5d0a016) Fixes: 959d2952d124 ("staging:iio: make iio_sw_buffer_preenable much more general.")

Commit f8747d4a466a ("tty: Fix pty master read() after slave closes") fixed the problem in case of n_tty_read, but the problem still exists for n_tty_poll. This can be seen by running 'for ((i=0; i<100;i++));do ./test.py ;done' where test.py is: import os, select, pty (pid, pty_fd) = pty.fork() if pid == 0: os.write(1, 'This string should be received by parent') else: poller = select.epoll() poller.register( pty_fd, select.EPOLLIN ) ready = poller.poll( 1 * 1000 ) for fd, events in ready: if not events & select.EPOLLIN: print 'missed POLLIN event' else: print os.read(fd, 100) poller.close() The string from the slave is missed several times. This patch takes the same approach as the fix for read and special cases this condition for poll. Tested on 3.16.

If a device doesn't have clk property, then info->clk may have unpredicated value and cause call trace. So use kzalloc to make sure it is NULL initialized.
