      /dev/oldmem: Remove the interface · a11edb59
      由 Zhang Yanfei 提交于 
      /dev/oldmem provides the interface for us to access the "old memory" in
the dump-capture kernel.  Unfortunately, no one actually uses this
interface.

And this interface could actually cause some real problems if used on ia64
where the cached/uncached accesses are mixed.  See the discussion from the
link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/12/386.

So Eric suggested that we should remove /dev/oldmem as an unused piece of
code.

      char: misc: assign file->private_data in all cases · 585d98e0
      由 Thomas Petazzoni 提交于 
      In fa1f68db ("drivers: misc: pass miscdevice pointer via file
private data"), the misc driver infrastructure was changed to assigned
file->private_data as a pointer to the 'struct miscdevice' that
corresponds to the device being opened.

However, this assignment was only done when the misc driver was
declaring a driver-specific ->open() operation in its
file_operations. This doesn't make sense, as the driver may not
necessarily have a custom ->open() operation, and might still be
interested in having file->private_data properly set for use in its
->read() and write() operations.

Therefore, we move the assignment of file->private_data outside of the
condition that tests whether a driver-specific ->open() operation was
defined.

      hwrng: bcm2835: fix MODULE_LICENSE tag · 22e8099f
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      The MODULE_LICENSE macro invocation must use either "GPL" or "GPL v2",
but not "GPLv2" in order to be detected by the module loader.

This fixes the allmodconfig build error:

      random: fix accounting race condition with lockless irq entropy_count update · 10b3a32d
      由 Jiri Kosina 提交于 
      Commit 902c098a ("random: use lockless techniques in the interrupt
path") turned IRQ path from being spinlock protected into lockless
cmpxchg-retry update.

That commit removed r->lock serialization between crediting entropy bits
from IRQ context and accounting when extracting entropy on userspace
read path, but didn't turn the r->entropy_count reads/updates in
account() to use cmpxchg as well.

It has been observed, that under certain circumstances this leads to
read() on /dev/urandom to return 0 (EOF), as r->entropy_count gets
corrupted and becomes negative, which in turn results in propagating 0
all the way from account() to the actual read() call.

Convert the accounting code to be the proper lockless counterpart of
what has been partially done by 902c098a.

      drivers/char/random.c: fix priming of last_data · 1e7e2e05
      由 Jarod Wilson 提交于 
      Commit ec8f02da ("random: prime last_data value per fips
requirements") added priming of last_data per fips requirements.

Unfortuantely, it did so in a way that can lead to multiple threads all
incrementing nbytes, but only one actually doing anything with the extra
data, which leads to some fun random corruption and panics.

The fix is to simply do everything needed to prime last_data in a single
shot, so there's no window for multiple cpus to increment nbytes -- in
fact, we won't even increment or decrement nbytes anymore, we'll just
extract the needed EXTRACT_SIZE one time per pool and then carry on with
the normal routine.

All these changes have been tested across multiple hosts and
architectures where panics were previously encoutered.  The code changes
are are strictly limited to areas only touched when when booted in fips
mode.

This change should also go into 3.8-stable, to make the myriads of fips
users on 3.8.x happy.

      TPM: Retry SaveState command in suspend path · 32d33b29
      由 Duncan Laurie 提交于 
      If the TPM has already been sent a SaveState command before the driver
is loaded it may have problems sending that same command again later.

This issue is seen with the Chromebook Pixel due to a firmware bug in
the legacy mode boot path which is sending the SaveState command
before booting the kernel.  More information is available at
http://crbug.com/203524

This change introduces a retry of the SaveState command in the suspend
path in order to work around this issue.  A future firmware update
should fix this but this is also a trivial workaround in the driver
that has no effect on systems that do not show this problem.

When this does happen the TPM responds with a non-fatal TPM_RETRY code
that is defined in the specification:

  The TPM is too busy to respond to the command immediately, but the
  command could be resubmitted at a later time.  The TPM MAY return
  TPM_RETRY for any command at any time.

It can take several seconds before the TPM will respond again.  I
measured a typical time between 3 and 4 seconds and the timeout is set
at a safe 5 seconds.

It is also possible to reproduce this with commands via /dev/tpm0.
The bug linked above has a python script attached which can be used to
test for this problem.  I tested a variety of TPMs from Infineon,
Nuvoton, Atmel, and STMicro but was only able to reproduce this with
LPC and I2C TPMs from Infineon.

The TPM specification only loosely defines this behavior:

  TPM Main Level 2 Part 3 v1.2 r116, section 3.3. TPM_SaveState:
  The TPM MAY declare all preserved values invalid in response to any
  command other than TPM_Init.

  TCG PC Client BIOS Spec 1.21 section 8.3.1.
  After issuing a TPM_SaveState command, the OS SHOULD NOT issue TPM
  commands before transitioning to S3 without issuing another
  TPM_SaveState command.

  TCG PC Client TIS 1.21, section 4. Power Management:
  The TPM_SaveState command allows a Static OS to indicate to the TPM
  that the platform may enter a low power state where the TPM will be
  required to enter into the D3 power state.  The use of the term "may"
  is significant in that there is no requirement for the platform to
  actually enter the low power state after sending the TPM_SaveState
  command.  The software may, in fact, send subsequent commands after
  sending the TPM_SaveState command.
