2017-06-02ALSA: pcm: Introduce copy_user, copy_kernel and fill_silence opsTakashi Iwai
For supporting the explicit in-kernel copy of PCM buffer data, and also for further code refactoring, three new PCM ops, copy_user, copy_kernel and fill_silence, are introduced. The old copy and silence ops will be deprecated and removed later once when all callers are converted. The copy_kernel ops is the new one, and it's supposed to transfer the PCM data from the given kernel buffer to the hardware ring-buffer (or vice-versa depending on the stream direction), while the copy_user ops is equivalent with the former copy ops, to transfer the data from the user-space buffer. The major difference of the new copy_* and fill_silence ops from the previous ops is that the new ops take bytes instead of frames for size and position arguments. It has two merits: first, it allows the callback implementation often simpler (just call directly memcpy() & co), and second, it may unify the implementations of both interleaved and non-interleaved cases, as we'll see in the later patch. As of this stage, copy_kernel ops isn't referred yet, but only copy_user is used.

The previous commit [63691587f7b0: ALSA: hda - Apply dual-codec quirk for MSI Z270-Gaming mobo] attempted to apply the existing dual-codec quirk for a MSI mobo. But it turned out that this isn't applied properly due to the MSI-vendor quirk before this entry. I overlooked such two MSI entries just because they were put in the wrong position, although we have a list ordered by PCI SSID numbers. This patch fixes it by rearranging the unordered entries.

This reverts commit 89b593c30e83 ("ALSA: usb-audio: purge needless variable length array"). The patch turned out to cause a severe regression, triggering an Oops at snd_usb_ctl_msg(). It was overseen that snd_usb_ctl_msg() writes back the response to the given buffer, while the patch changed it to a read-only const buffer. (One should always double-check when an extra pointer cast is present...) As a simple fix, just revert the affected commit. It was merely a cleanup. Although it brings VLA again, it's clearer as a fix. We'll address the VLA later in another patch.

2017-05-25ALSA: pcm: Call ack() whenever appl_ptr is updatedTakashi Iwai
Although the ack callback is supposed to be called at each appl_ptr or hw_ptr update, we missed a few opportunities: namely, forward, rewind and sync_ptr. Formerly calling ack at rewind may have leaded to unexpected results due to the forgotten negative appl_ptr update in indirect-PCM helper, which is the major user of the PCM ack callback. But now we fixed this oversights, thus we can call ack callback safely even at rewind callback -- of course with the proper handling of the error from the callback. This patch adds the calls of ack callback in the places mentioned in the above. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

2017-05-25ALSA: pcm: Fix negative appl_ptr handling in pcm-indirect helpersTakashi Iwai
The indirect-PCM helper codes have an implicit assumption that the appl_ptr always increases. But the PCM core may deal with the decrement of appl_ptr via rewind ioctls, and it may screw up the buffer pointer management. This patch adds the negative appl_ptr diff in transfer functions and let returning an error instead of always accepting the appl_ptr updates. The callers are usually PCM ack callbacks, and they pass the error to the upper layer accordingly. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2017-05-24ALSA: sb: remove needless evaluation in implementation for copy callbackTakashi Sakamoto
In design of ALSA pcm core, 'struct snd_pcm_ops.copy' is expected to copy PCM frames, according to frame alignment on intermediate buffer for userspace and dedicated buffer for data transmission. In this callback, value of 'channel' argument depends on the frame alignment, which drivers registers to runtime of PCM substream. When target devices can handle non-interleaved buffer, this value has positive value, otherwise negative. ALSA driver for PCM component of EMU8000 chip is programmed with local macro to switch the frame alignment. The 'copy' operation in non-interleaved side has evaluation of the 'channel' argument (actually it's 'voice' argument). This is useless. This commit remove the evaluation. [tiwai: the negative channel argument was the inheritance from the old code where -1 was meant for interleaved mode. The mix-up was dropped meanwhile, thus it's correct to assume that we receive no longer -1 there, and it's safe to cleanup the relevant code. Also, voice=0 for channel==1 is trivial, and it can be dropped, too.] Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

2017-05-24ASoC: Intel: Skylake: Fix IPC rx_list corruptionPardha Saradhi K
In SKL+ platforms, all IPC commands are serialised, i.e. the driver sends a new IPC to DSP, only after receiving a reply from the firmware for the current IPC. Hence it seems apparent that there is only a single modifier of the IPC RX List. However, during an IPC timeout case in a multithreaded environment, there is a possibility of the list element being deleted two times if not properly protected.

soc_cleanup_card_resources() call snd_card_free() at the last of its procedure. This turned out to lead to a use-after-free. PCM runtimes have been already removed via soc_remove_pcm_runtimes(), while it's dereferenced later in soc_pcm_free() called via snd_card_free(). The fix is simple: just move the snd_card_free() call to the beginning of the whole procedure. This also gives another benefit: it guarantees that all operations have been shut down before actually releasing the resources, which was racy until now.

2017-05-23ALSA: pcm: Remove set_fs() in PCM core codeTakashi Iwai
PCM core code has a few usages of set_fs(), mostly for two codepaths: - The DELAY ioctl call from pcm_compat.c - The ioctl wrapper in kernel context for PCM OSS and other This patch removes the set_fs() usage in these places by a slight code refactoring. For the former point, snd_pcm_delay() is changed to return the value directly instead of putting the value to the given address. Each caller stores the result in an appropriate manner. For fixing the latter, snd_pcm_lib_kernel_ioctl() is changed to call the functions directly as well. For achieving it, now the function accepts only the limited set of ioctls that have been used, so far. The primary user of this function is the PCM OSS layer, and the only other user is USB UAC1 gadget driver. Both drivers don't need the full set of ioctls.

2017-05-22ALSA: firewire: remove support for 16 bit PCM samples in playback substreamTakashi Sakamoto
In IEC 61883-6, AM824 is described as format of data block. In this format, one data block consists of several data channels, which is aligned to 32 bit. One data channel has 8 bit label field and 24 bit data field. PCM frames are transferred in Multi Bit Linear Audio (MBLA) data channel. This channel can include 16/20/24 bit PCM sample. As long as I know, models which support IEC 61883-1/6 doesn't allow to switch bit length of PCM sample in MBLA data channel. They always transmit/receive PCM frames of 24 bit length. This can be seen for the other models which support protocols similar to IEC 61883-1/6. On the other hand, current drivers for these protocols supports 16 bit length PCM sample in playback substream. In this case, PCM sample is put into the MBLA data channel with 8 bit padding in LSB side. Although 16 bit PCM sample is major because it's in CD format, this doesn't represent device capability as is. This commit removes support for 16 bit PCM samples in playback substream.

2017-05-21x86: fix 32-bit case of __get_user_asm_u64()Linus Torvalds
The code to fetch a 64-bit value from user space was entirely buggered, and has been since the code was merged in early 2016 in commit b2f680380ddf ("x86/mm/32: Add support for 64-bit __get_user() on 32-bit kernels"). Happily the buggered routine is almost certainly entirely unused, since the normal way to access user space memory is just with the non-inlined "get_user()", and the inlined version didn't even historically exist. The normal "get_user()" case is handled by external hand-written asm in arch/x86/lib/getuser.S that doesn't have either of these issues. There were two independent bugs in __get_user_asm_u64(): - it still did the STAC/CLAC user space access marking, even though that is now done by the wrapper macros, see commit 11f1a4b9755f ("x86: reorganize SMAP handling in user space accesses"). This didn't result in a semantic error, it just means that the inlined optimized version was hugely less efficient than the allegedly slower standard version, since the CLAC/STAC overhead is quite high on modern Intel CPU's. - the double register %eax/%edx was marked as an output, but the %eax part of it was touched early in the asm, and could thus clobber other inputs to the asm that gcc didn't expect it to touch. In particular, that meant that the generated code could look like this: mov (%eax),%eax mov 0x4(%eax),%edx where the load of %edx obviously was _supposed_ to be from the 32-bit word that followed the source of %eax, but because %eax was overwritten by the first instruction, the source of %edx was basically random garbage. The fixes are trivial: remove the extraneous STAC/CLAC entries, and mark the 64-bit output as early-clobber to let gcc know that no inputs should alias with the output register.

2017-05-21Clean up x86 unsafe_get/put_user() type handlingLinus Torvalds
Al noticed that unsafe_put_user() had type problems, and fixed them in commit a7cc722fff0b ("fix unsafe_put_user()"), which made me look more at those functions. It turns out that unsafe_get_user() had a type issue too: it limited the largest size of the type it could handle to "unsigned long". Which is fine with the current users, but doesn't match our existing normal get_user() semantics, which can also handle "u64" even when that does not fit in a long. While at it, also clean up the type cast in unsafe_put_user(). We actually want to just make it an assignment to the expected type of the pointer, because we actually do want warnings from types that don't convert silently. And it makes the code more readable by not having that one very long and complex line. [ This patch might become stable material if we ever end up back-porting any new users of the unsafe uaccess code, but as things stand now this doesn't matter for any current existing uses. ] Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
