Functions generic_file_splice_read and generic_file_splice_write access
the pagecache directly. For block devices these functions must be locked
so that block size is not changed while they are in progress.
This patch is an additional fix for commit b87570f5d3 ("Fix a crash
when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time")
that locked aio_read, aio_write and mmap against block size change.

Use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched / synchronize_sched
instead of rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock / synchronize_rcu.
This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so
there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region.
So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates
to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly
faster) than preemptible rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock.

This patch introduces new barrier pair light_mb() and heavy_mb() for
percpu rw semaphores.
This patch fixes a bug in percpu-rw-semaphores where a barrier was
missing in percpu_up_write.
This patch improves performance on the read path of
percpu-rw-semaphores: on non-x86 cpus, there was a smp_mb() in
percpu_up_read. This patch changes it to a compiler barrier and removes
the "#if defined(X86) ..." condition.

In commit 800179c9b8 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.
However, it does turn out to break some applications. It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.
In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see
http://www.dwd.de/AFD/
along with some legacy scripts.
Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
to re-enable the link protections.
Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.

These devices provide QMI and ethernet functionality via a standard CDC
ethernet descriptor. But when driven by cdc_ether, the QMI
functionality is unavailable because only cdc_ether can claim the USB
interface. Thus blacklist the devices in cdc_ether and add their IDs to
qmi_wwan, which enables both QMI and ethernet simultaneously.

Driver anchors the tx urbs and defers the urb submission if
a transmit request comes when the interface is suspended.
Anchoring urb increments the urb reference count. These
deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor()
for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor()
unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same.
This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero
after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed.
Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly
balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also,
unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them
up.

The QP range is reserved as a single block. However, when freeing the

The delayed work function int_in_work() may call usb_reset_device()
and thus, indirectly, the driver's pre_reset method. Trying to
cancel the work synchronously in that situation would deadlock.
Fix by avoiding cancel_work_sync() in the pre_reset method.
If the reset was NOT initiated by int_in_work() this might cause
int_in_work() to run after the post_reset method, with urb_int_in
already resubmitted, so handle that case gracefully.

In order to decide if ktest should bother installing modules on the
target box, it checks if the config file has CONFIG_MODULES=y. But it
also checks if the '=y' part exists. It only will install modules if the
config exists and is set with '=y'. But as the regex that was used
tests:
/^CONFIG_MODULES(=y)?/
this will also match:
CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
as the '=y' part was optional and it did not test the rest of the line.
When this happens, ktest will stop checking the rest of the configs but
it will also think that no modules are needed to be installed. What it
should do is only jump out of the loop if it actually found a
CONFIG_MODULES that is set to true.
Otherwise, ktest wont install the necessary modules needed for proper
booting of the test target.

Like our other pen-and-touch products, the Cintiq 24HD touch needs data
to be shared between its two sensors to facilitate proximity-based palm
rejection.
Unlike other tablets that report sensor data through separate interfaces
of the same USB device, the Cintiq 24HD touch has separate USB devices
that are connected to an internal USB hub.
This patch makes it possible to designate the USB VID/PID of the other
device so that the two may share data. To ensure we don't accidentally
link to a sensor from a physically separate device (if several have been
plugged in), we limit the search to siblings (i.e., devices directly
connected to the same hub).

If one includes documentation for an external tool, it should be
correct. This is not:
1. Overriding the input to rngd should typically be neither
necessary nor desired. This is especially so since newer
versions of rngd support a number of different *types* of sources.
2. The default kernel-exported device is called /dev/hwrng not
/dev/hwrandom nor /dev/hw_random (both of which were used in the
past; however, kernel and udev seem to have converged on
/dev/hwrng.)
Overall it is better if the documentation for rngd is kept with rngd
rather than in a kernel Makefile.

In the extremely unlikely case of an attacker having control over the

without compiler hardening, the attacker can gain arbitrary execution
