In commit c4004b02f8e5b ("x86: remove the kernel code/data/bss resources
from /proc/iomem") I was hoping to remove the phyiscal kernel address
data from /proc/iomem entirely, but that had to be reverted because some
system programs actually use it.
This limits all the detailed resource information to properly
credentialed users instead.

The PCI config access checked the file capabilities correctly, but used
the itnernal security capability check rather than the helper function
that is actually meant for that.
The security_capable() has unusual return values and is not meant to be
used elsewhere (the only other use is in the capability checking
functions that we actually intend people to use, and this odd PCI usage
really stood out when looking around the capability code.

A lot of seqfile users seem to be using things like %pK that uses the
credentials of the current process, but that is actually completely
wrong for filesystem interfaces.
The unix semantics for permission checking files is to check permissions
at _open_ time, not at read or write time, and that is not just a small
detail: passing off stdin/stdout/stderr to a suid application and making
the actual IO happen in privileged context is a classic exploit
technique.
So if we want to be able to look at permissions at read time, we need to
use the file open credentials, not the current ones. Normal file
accesses can just use "f_cred" (or any of the helper functions that do
that, like file_ns_capable()), but the seqfile interfaces do not have
any such options.
It turns out that seq_file _does_ save away the user_ns information of
the file, though. Since user_ns is just part of the full credential
information, replace that special case with saving off the cred pointer
instead, and suddenly seq_file has all the permission information it
needs.

This reverts commit c4004b02f8e5b9ce357a0bb1641756cc86962664.
Sadly, my hope that nobody would actually use the special kernel entries
in /proc/iomem were dashed by kexec. Which reads /proc/iomem explicitly
to find the kernel base address. Nasty.
Anyway, that means we can't do the sane and simple thing and just remove
the entries, and we'll instead have to mask them out based on permissions.

Use flat regmap cache to avoid lockdep warning at probe:
[ 0.697285] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2755 lockdep_trace_alloc+0x15c/0x160()
[ 0.697449] DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(irqs_disabled_flags(flags))
The RB-tree regmap cache needs to allocate new space on first writes.
However, allocations in an atomic context (e.g. when a spinlock is held)
are not allowed. The function regmap_write calls map->lock, which
acquires a spinlock in the fast_io case. Since the pwm-fsl-ftm driver
uses MMIO, the regmap bus of type regmap_mmio is being used which has
fast_io set to true.
The MMIO space of the pwm-fsl-ftm driver is reasonable condense, hence
using the much faster flat regmap cache is anyway the better choice.

Tegra124 has been randomly hanging during system suspend when entering
the Tegra LP1 low power state. The hang is caused by the Tegra SDHCI
driver and linked to the UHS-I tuning sequence. Disabling the UHS-I
modes for Tegra124 prevents any hangs from occurring when entering
system suspend.
Unfortunately, the tuning sequence described in the public Tegra
documentation is incomplete and on inspection of the current tuning
sequence that has been implemented is also incomplete and may cause
problems. In the short-term it is safer to disable UHS-I modes for now
and fix later because it would be too large of a change to simply patch
now. Therefore, disable UHS-I modes for Tegra124.

Commit 520bd7a8b415 ("mmc: core: Optimize boot time by detecting cards
simultaneously") causes regressions for some platforms.
These platforms relies on fixed mmcblk device indexes, instead of
deploying the defacto standard with UUID/PARTUUID. In other words their
rootfs needs to be available at hardcoded paths, like /dev/mmcblk0p2.
Such guarantees have never been made by the kernel, but clearly the above
commit changes the behaviour. More precisely, because of that the order
changes of how cards becomes detected, so do their corresponding mmcblk
device indexes.
As the above commit significantly improves boot time for some platforms
(magnitude of seconds), let's avoid reverting this change but instead
restore the behaviour of how mmcblk device indexes becomes picked.
By using the same index for the mmcblk device as for the corresponding mmc
host device, the probe order of mmc host devices decides the index we get
for the mmcblk device.
For those platforms that suffers from a regression, one could expect that
this updated behaviour should be sufficient to meet their expectations of
"fixed" mmcblk device indexes.
Another side effect from this change, is that the same index is used for
the mmc host device, the mmcblk device and the mmc block queue. That
should clarify their relationship.

Otherwise generic-xhci and xhci-platform which have no data get wrongly

This fixes a regression in v4.5 for STiH407 family SoC's which use the
synopsis dwc3 IP, whereby the disable_clk error path gets taken due to
wrongly being detected as XHCI_PLAT_TYPE_MARVELL_ARMADA and the hcd never

I suspect this will also fix other dwc3 DT platforms such as Exynos,
although I've only tested on STih410 SoC.

PCI hotpluggable xhci controllers such as some Alpine Ridge solutions will
remove the xhci controller from the PCI bus when the last USB device is
disconnected.
Add a flag to indicate that the host is being removed to avoid queueing
configure_endpoint commands for the dropped endpoints.
For PCI hotplugged controllers this will prevent 5 second command timeouts
For static xhci controllers the configure_endpoint command is not needed
in the removal case as everything will be returned, freed, and the
controller is reset.
For now the flag is only set for PCI connected host controllers.

On some xHCI controllers (e.g. R-Car SoCs), the AC64 bit (bit 0) of
HCCPARAMS1 is set to 1. However, the xHCs don't support 64-bit
address memory pointers actually. So, in this case, this driver should
call dma_set_coherent_mask(dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32)) in xhci_gen_setup().
Otherwise, the xHCI controller will be died after a usb device is
connected if it runs on above 4GB physical memory environment.
So, this patch adds a new quirk XHCI_NO_64BIT_SUPPORT to resolve
such an issue.

Based on Sergey's test patch [1], this fixes zram with lz4 compression
on big endian cpus.
Note that the 64-bit preprocessor test is not a cleanup, it's part of
the fix, since those identifiers are bogus (for example, __ppc64__
isn't defined anywhere else in the kernel, which means we'd fall into
the 32-bit definitions on ppc64).
Tested on ppc64 with no regression on x86_64.

The commit 895005202987 ("dmaengine: dw: apply both HS interfaces and remove
slave_id usage") cleaned up the code to avoid usage of depricated slave_id
member of generic slave configuration.
Meanwhile it broke the master selection by removing important call to
dwc_set_masters() in ->device_alloc_chan_resources() which copied masters from
custom slave configuration to the internal channel structure.
Everything works until now since there is no customized connection of
DesignWare DMA IP to the bus, i.e. one bus and one or more masters are in use.
The configurations where 2 masters are connected to the different masters are
not working anymore. We are expecting one user of such configuration and need
to select masters properly. Besides that it is obviously a performance
regression since only one master is in use in multi-master configuration.
Select masters in accordance with what user asked for. Keep this patch in a form
more suitable for back porting.
We are safe to take necessary data in ->device_alloc_chan_resources() because
we don't support generic slave configuration embedded into custom one, and thus
the only way to provide such is to use the parameter to a filter function which
is called exactly before channel resource allocation.
While here, replase BUG_ON to less noisy dev_warn() and prevent channel
allocation in case of error.

While the previous commit fixed the missing monitor_present flag
update, it may be still in an inconsistent state while the driver
repolls: the flag itself is updated, but the eld_valid flag and the
contents don't follow until the repoll finishes (and may be repeated
for a few times).
The basic problem is that pin_eld->monitor_present is updated in the
caller side. This should have been updated only in update_eld(). So,
the proper fix is to avoid accessing pin_eld but only spec->temp_eld.

The commit [bd48128539ab: ALSA: hda - Fix forgotten HDMI
monitor_present update] covered the missing update of monitor_present
flag, but this caused a regression for devices without the i915 eld
notifier. Since the old code supposed that pin_eld->monitor_present
was updated by the caller side, the hdmi_present_sense_via_verbs()
doesn't update the temporary eld->monitor_present but only
pin_eld->monitor_present, which is now overridden in update_eld().
The fix is to update pin_eld->monitor_present as well before calling
update_eld().
Note that this may still leave monitor_present flag in an inconsistent
state when the driver repolls, but this is at least the old behavior.
More proper fix will follow in the later patch.

Starting with 4.1 the tracing subsystem has its own filesystem
which is automounted in the tracing subdirectory of debugfs.
Prior to this debugfs could be bind mounted in a cloned mount
namespace, but if tracefs has been mounted under debugfs this
now fails because there is a locked child mount. This creates
a regression for container software which bind mounts debugfs
to satisfy the assumption of some userspace software.
In other pseudo filesystems such as proc and sysfs we're already
creating mountpoints like this in such a way that no dirents can
be created in the directories, allowing them to be exceptions to
some MNT_LOCKED tests. In fact we're already do this for the
tracefs mountpoint in sysfs.
Do the same in debugfs_create_automount(), since the intention
here is clearly to create a mountpoint. This fixes the regression,
as locked child mounts on permanently empty directories do not
cause a bind mount to fail.

a file is opened which is an unnecessary waste of resources.
Implement file lifetime management for the fops_bool file_operations.
Namely, make debugfs_read_file_bool() and debugfs_write_file_bool() safe
against file removals by means of debugfs_use_file_start() and
debugfs_use_file_finish().
Make debugfs_create_bool() create its files in non-proxying operation mode
through debugfs_create_mode_unsafe().
Finally, purge debugfs_create_mode() as debugfs_create_bool() had been its
last user.

Currently, the struct file_operations associated with the integer attribute
style files created through the debugfs_create_*() helpers are not file
lifetime aware as they are defined by means of DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE().
Thus, a lifetime managing proxy is created around the original fops each
time such a file is opened which is an unnecessary waste of resources.
Migrate all usages of DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() within debugfs itself
to DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() in order to implement file lifetime managing
within the struct file_operations thus defined.
Introduce the debugfs_create_mode_unsafe() helper, analogous to
debugfs_create_mode(), but distinct in that it creates the files in
non-proxying operation mode through debugfs_create_file_unsafe().
Feed all struct file_operations migrated to DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE()
into debugfs_create_mode_unsafe() instead of former debugfs_create_mode().

In order to protect against file removal races, debugfs files created via
debugfs_create_file() now get wrapped by a struct file_operations at their
opening.
If the original struct file_operations are known to be safe against removal
races by themselves already, the proxy creation may be bypassed by creating
the files through debugfs_create_file_unsafe().
In order to help debugfs users who use the common
DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file()
idiom to transition to removal safe struct file_operations, the helper
macro DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() has been introduced.
Thus, the preferred strategy is to use
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe()
now.
Introduce a Coccinelle script that searches for
DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE()-defined struct file_operations handed into
debugfs_create_file(). Suggest to turn these usages into the
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe()
pattern.

In order to protect them against file removal issues, debugfs_create_file()
creates a lifetime managing proxy around each struct file_operations
handed in.
In cases where this struct file_operations is able to manage file lifetime
by itself already, the proxy created by debugfs is a waste of resources.
The most common class of struct file_operations given to debugfs are those
defined by means of the DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() macro.
Introduce a DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() macro to allow any
struct file_operations of this class to be easily made file lifetime aware
and thus, to be operated unproxied.
Specifically, introduce debugfs_attr_read() and debugfs_attr_write()
which wrap simple_attr_read() and simple_attr_write() under the protection
of a debugfs_use_file_start()/debugfs_use_file_finish() pair.
Make DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() set the defined struct file_operations'
->read() and ->write() members to these wrappers.
Export debugfs_create_file_unsafe() in order to allow debugfs users to
create their files in non-proxying operation mode.

Upon return of debugfs_remove()/debugfs_remove_recursive(), it might
still be attempted to access associated private file data through
previously opened struct file objects. If that data has been freed by
the caller of debugfs_remove*() in the meanwhile, the reading/writing
process would either encounter a fault or, if the memory address in
question has been reassigned again, unrelated data structures could get
overwritten.
However, since debugfs files are seldomly removed, usually from module
exit handlers only, the impact is very low.
Currently, there are ~1000 call sites of debugfs_create_file() spread
throughout the whole tree and touching all of those struct file_operations
in order to make them file removal aware by means of checking the result of
debugfs_use_file_start() from within their methods is unfeasible.
Instead, wrap the struct file_operations by a lifetime managing proxy at
file open:
- In debugfs_create_file(), the original fops handed in has got stashed
away in ->d_fsdata already.
- In debugfs_create_file(), install a proxy file_operations factory,
debugfs_full_proxy_file_operations, at ->i_fop.
This proxy factory has got an ->open() method only. It carries out some
lifetime checks and if successful, dynamically allocates and sets up a new
struct file_operations proxy at ->f_op. Afterwards, it forwards to the
->open() of the original struct file_operations in ->d_fsdata, if any.
The dynamically set up proxy at ->f_op has got a lifetime managing wrapper
set for each of the methods defined in the original struct file_operations
in ->d_fsdata.
Its ->release()er frees the proxy again and forwards to the original
->release(), if any.
In order not to mislead the VFS layer, it is strictly necessary to leave
those fields blank in the proxy that have been NULL in the original
struct file_operations also, i.e. aren't supported. This is why there is a
need for dynamically allocated proxies. The choice made not to allocate a
proxy instance for every dentry at file creation, but for every
struct file object instantiated thereof is justified by the expected usage
pattern of debugfs, namely that in general very few files get opened more
than once at a time.
The wrapper methods set in the struct file_operations implement lifetime
managing by means of the SRCU protection facilities already in place for
debugfs:
They set up a SRCU read side critical section and check whether the dentry
is still alive by means of debugfs_use_file_start(). If so, they forward
the call to the original struct file_operation stored in ->d_fsdata, still
under the protection of the SRCU read side critical section.
This SRCU read side critical section prevents any pending debugfs_remove()
and friends to return to their callers. Since a file's private data must
only be freed after the return of debugfs_remove(), the ongoing proxied
call is guarded against any file removal race.
If, on the other hand, the initial call to debugfs_use_file_start() detects
that the dentry is dead, the wrapper simply returns -EIO and does not
forward the call. Note that the ->poll() wrapper is special in that its
signature does not allow for the return of arbitrary -EXXX values and thus,
POLLHUP is returned here.
In order not to pollute debugfs with wrapper definitions that aren't ever
needed, I chose not to define a wrapper for every struct file_operations
method possible. Instead, a wrapper is defined only for the subset of
methods which are actually set by any debugfs users.
Currently, these are:
->llseek()
->read()
->write()
->unlocked_ioctl()
->poll()
The ->release() wrapper is special in that it does not protect the original
->release() in any way from dead files in order not to leak resources.
Thus, any ->release() handed to debugfs must implement file lifetime
management manually, if needed.
For only 33 out of a total of 434 releasers handed in to debugfs, it could
not be verified immediately whether they access data structures that might
have been freed upon a debugfs_remove() return in the meanwhile.
Export debugfs_use_file_start() and debugfs_use_file_finish() in order to
allow any ->release() to manually implement file lifetime management.
For a set of common cases of struct file_operations implemented by the
debugfs_core itself, future patches will incorporate file lifetime
management directly within those in order to allow for their unproxied
operation. Rename the original, non-proxying "debugfs_create_file()" to
"debugfs_create_file_unsafe()" and keep it for future internal use by
debugfs itself. Factor out code common to both into the new
__debugfs_create_file().

Nothing prevents a dentry found by path lookup before a return of
__debugfs_remove() to actually get opened after that return. Now, after
the return of __debugfs_remove(), there are no guarantees whatsoever
regarding the memory the corresponding inode's file_operations object
had been kept in.
Since __debugfs_remove() is seldomly invoked, usually from module exit
handlers only, the race is hard to trigger and the impact is very low.
A discussion of the problem outlined above as well as a suggested
solution can be found in the (sub-)thread rooted at
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20130401203445.GA20862@ZenIV.linux.org.uk
("Yet another pipe related oops.")
Basically, Greg KH suggests to introduce an intermediate fops and
Al Viro points out that a pointer to the original ones may be stored in
->d_fsdata.
Follow this line of reasoning:
- Add SRCU as a reverse dependency of DEBUG_FS.
- Introduce a srcu_struct object for the debugfs subsystem.
- In debugfs_create_file(), store a pointer to the original
file_operations object in ->d_fsdata.
- Make debugfs_remove() and debugfs_remove_recursive() wait for a
SRCU grace period after the dentry has been delete()'d and before they
return to their callers.
- Introduce an intermediate file_operations object named
"debugfs_open_proxy_file_operations". It's ->open() functions checks,
under the protection of a SRCU read lock, whether the dentry is still
alive, i.e. has not been d_delete()'d and if so, tries to acquire a
reference on the owning module.
On success, it sets the file object's ->f_op to the original
file_operations and forwards the ongoing open() call to the original
->open().
- For clarity, rename the former debugfs_file_operations to
debugfs_noop_file_operations -- they are in no way canonical.
The choice of SRCU over "normal" RCU is justified by the fact, that the
former may also be used to protect ->i_private data from going away
during the execution of a file's readers and writers which may (and do)
sleep.
Finally, introduce the fs/debugfs/internal.h header containing some
declarations internal to the debugfs implementation.
