The previous fix for addressing the breakage in vmaster slave
initialization, commit a91d66129f ("ALSA: hda - Fix incorrect TLV
callback check introduced during set_fs() removal"), introduced a new
helper to process over each slave kctl. However, this helper passes
only the original kctl, not the virtual slave kctl. As a result,
HD-audio driver (which is the only user so far) couldn't initialize
the slave correctly because it's trying to update the value directly
with the original kctl, not with the mapped kctl.
This patch fixes the situation again by passing both the mapped slaved
and original slave kctls to the function. Luckily there is a single
caller as of now, so changing the call signature is no big matter.

Some timer compat ioctls have NULL checks of timer instance with
snd_BUG_ON() that bring up WARN_ON() when the debug option is set.
Actually the condition can be met in the normal situation and it's
confusing and bad to spew kernel warnings with stack trace there.
Let's remove snd_BUG_ON() invocation and replace with the simple
checks. Also, correct the error code to EBADFD to follow the native
ioctl error handling.

commit 3179f62001 ("ALSA: core: add .get_time_info") had a side effect
of changing the behaviour of the PCM runtime tstamp. Prior to this
change tstamp was not updated by snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr0() unless the
hw_ptr had moved, after this change tstamp was always updated.
For an application using alsa-lib, doing snd_pcm_readi() followed by
snd_pcm_status() to estimate the age of the read samples by subtracting
status->avail * [sample rate] from status->tstamp this change degraded
the accuracy of the estimate on devices where the pcm hw does not
provide a granular hw_ptr, e.g., devices using
soc-generic-dmaengine-pcm.c and a dma-engine with residue_granularity
DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_DESCRIPTOR. The accuracy of the estimate
depended on the latency between the PCM hw completing a period and the
driver called snd_pcm_period_elapsed() to notify ALSA core, typically
determined by interrupt handling latency. After the change the accuracy
of the estimate depended on the latency between the PCM hw completing a
period and the application calling snd_pcm_status(), determined by the
scheduling of the application process. The maximum error of the
estimate is one period length in both cases, but the error average and
variance is smaller when it depends on interrupt latency.
Instead of always updating tstamp, update it only if audio_tstamp
changed.

The biggest thing this release has been the conversion of the AC98 bus
to the driver model, that's been a long time coming so thanks to Robert
Jarzmik for his dedication there. Due to there being some AC97 MFD
there's a few fairly large changes in input and the MFD layer, mainly to
the wm97xx driver.
There's also some drivers/drm changes to support the new AMD Stoney
platform, these are shared with the DRM subsystem and should be being
merged via both.
Within the subsystem the overwhelming bulk of the changes is in the
Intel drivers which continue to need lots of cleanups and fixes, this
release they've also gained support for their open source firmware.
There's also some large changs in the core as Morimoto-san continues to
mirror operations into the component level in preparation for conversion
of drivers to that.
- The AC97 bus has finally caught up with the driver model thanks to
some dedicated and persistent work from Robert Jarzmik.
- Continued work from Morimoto-san on moving us towards being able to
use components for everything.
- Lots of cleanups for the Intel platform code, including support for
their open source audio firmware.
- Support for scaling MCLK with sample rate in simple-card.
- Support for AMD Stoney platform.

The SYSEX event delivery in OSS sequencer emulation assumed that the
event is encoded in the variable-length data with the straight
buffering. This was the normal behavior in the past, but during the
development, the chained buffers were introduced for carrying more
data, while the OSS code was left intact. As a result, when a SYSEX
event with the chained buffer data is passed to OSS sequencer port,
it may end up with the wrong memory access, as if it were having a too
large buffer.
This patch addresses the bug, by applying the buffer data expansion by
the generic snd_seq_dump_var_event() helper function.

Currently we allow unlimited number of timer instances, and it may
bring the system hogging way too much CPU when too many timer
instances are opened and processed concurrently. This may end up with
a soft-lockup report as triggered by syzkaller, especially when
hrtimer backend is deployed.
Since such insane number of instances aren't demanded by the normal
use case of ALSA sequencer and it merely opens a risk only for abuse,
this patch introduces the upper limit for the number of instances per
timer backend. As default, it's set to 1000, but for the fine-grained
timer like hrtimer, it's set to 100.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

syzkaller reported the lockdep splat due to the possible deadlock of
grp->list_mutex of each sequencer client object. Actually this is
rather a false-positive report due to the missing nested lock
annotations. The sequencer client may deliver the event directly to
another client which takes another own lock.
For addressing this issue, this patch replaces the simple down_read()
with down_read_nested(). As a lock subclass, the already existing

The races among ioctl and other operations were protected by the
commit af368027a4 ("ALSA: timer: Fix race among timer ioctls") and
later fixes, but one code path was forgotten in the scenario: the
32bit compat ioctl. As syzkaller recently spotted, a very similar
use-after-free may happen with the combination of compat ioctls.
The fix is simply to apply the same ioctl_lock to the compat_ioctl
callback, too.

The commit 99b5c5bb9a ("ALSA: hda - Remove the use of set_fs()")
converted the get_kctl_0dB_offset() call for killing set_fs() usage in
HD-audio codec code. The conversion assumed that the TLV callback
used in HD-audio code is only snd_hda_mixer_amp() and applies the TLV
calculation locally.
Although this assumption is correct, and all slave kctls are actually
with that callback, the current code is still utterly buggy; it
doesn't hit this condition and falls back to the next check. It's
because the function gets called after adding slave kctls to vmaster.
By assigning a slave kctl, the slave kctl object is faked inside
vmaster code, and the whole kctl ops are overridden. Thus the
callback op points to a different value from what we've assumed.
More badly, as reported by the KERNEXEC and UDEREF features of PaX,
the code flow turns into the unexpected pitfall. The next fallback
check is SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_TLV_READ access bit, and this always
hits for each kctl with TLV. Then it evaluates the callback function
pointer wrongly as if it were a TLV array. Although currently its
side-effect is fairly limited, this incorrect reference may lead to an
unpleasant result.
For addressing the regression, this patch introduces a new helper to
vmaster code, snd_ctl_apply_vmaster_slaves(). This works similarly
like the existing map_slaves() in hda_codec.c: it loops over the slave
list of the given master, and applies the given function to each
slave. Then the initializer function receives the right kctl object
and we can compare the correct pointer instead of the faked one.
Also, for catching the similar breakage in future, give an error
message when the unexpected TLV callback is found and bail out
immediately.

So far we assumed that each driver implements the hotplug PCM handling
properly, e.g. dealing with the pending PCM stream at disconnect
callback. But most codes don't care, and it eventually leaves the PCM
stream inconsistent state when an abrupt disconnection like sysfs
unbind happens.
This patch is simple but a big-hammer solution: invoke snd_pcm_stop()
at the common PCM disconnect callback always when the stream is
running.

The internal PCM (aka DPCM backend PCM) doesn't need any registration
procedure, thus currently we bail out immediately at dev_register
callback. Similarly, its counterpart, dev_disconnect callback, is
superfluous for the internal PCM. For simplifying and avoiding the
conflicting disconnect call for internal PCM objects, this patch drops
dev_register and dev_disconnect callbacks for the internal ops.
The only uncertain thing by this action is whether skipping the PCM
state change to SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DISCONNECT for the internal PCM is
mandatory. Looking through the current implementations, this doesn't
look so, hence dropping the whole dev_disconnect would make more
sense.

In case of user unbind ALSA driver during playing back / capturing,
each driver needs to stop and remove it correctly. One note here is
that we can't cancel from remove function in such case, because
unbind operation doesn't check return value from remove function.
So, we *must* stop and remove in this case.
For this purpose, we need to sync (= wait) until the all top-level
operations are canceled at remove function.
For example, snd_card_free() processes the disconnection procedure at
first, then waits for the completion. That's how the hot-unplug works
safely. It's implemented, at least, in the top-level driver removal.
Now for the lower level driver, we need a similar strategy. Notify to
the toplevel for hot-unplug (disconnect in ALSA), and sync with the
stop operation, then continue the rest of its own remove procedure.
This patch adds snd_card_disconnect_sync(), and driver can use it from
remove function.
Note: the "lower level" driver here refers to a middle layer driver
(e.g. ASoC components) that can be unbound freely during operation.
Most of legacy ALSA helper drivers don't have such a problem because
they can't be unbound.
Note#2: snd_card_disconnect_sync() merely calls snd_card_disconnect()
and syncs with closing all pending files. It takes only the files
opened by user-space into account, and doesn't care about object
refcounts. (The latter is handled by snd_card_free() completion call,
BTW.) Also, the function doesn't free resources by itself.

There is a potential race window opened at creating and deleting a

The event handler in the virmidi sequencer code takes a read-lock for
the linked list traverse, while it's calling snd_seq_dump_var_event()

depending on the event type. It eventually invokes copy_from_user(),
which might be a potential dead-lock.
The sequencer core guarantees that the user-space data is passed only
with atomic=0 argument, but snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event() ignores it
and always takes read-lock(). For avoiding the problem above, this
patch introduces rwsem for non-atomic case, while keeping rwlock for
atomic case.

Currently we're taking power_lock at each card component for assuring

callers, but it doesn't protect about the power state change itself.
It used to have some usefulness in the early days where we managed the
PM manually. But now the suspend/resume core procedure is beyond our
hands, and power_lock lost its meaning.
This patch drops the power_lock from allover the places.
There shouldn't be any issues by this change, as it's no helper
regarding the power state change. Rather we'll get better performance
by removing the serialization; which is the only slight concern of any

In a design of ALSA control core, a set of elements is represented by
'struct snd_kcontrol' to share common attributes. The set of elements
shares TLV (Type-Length-Value) data, too.
On the other hand, in ALSA control interface/protocol for applications,
a TLV operation is committed to an element. Totally, the operation can
have sub-effect to the other elements in the set. For example, TLV_WRITE
operation is expected to change TLV data, which returns to applications.
Applications attempt to change the TLV data per element, but in the above
design, they can effect to elements in the same set.
As a default, ALSA control core has no implementation except for TLV_READ
operation. Thus, the above design looks to have no issue. However, in
kernel APIs of ALSA control component, developers can program a handler
for any request of the TLV operation. Therefore, for elements in a set
which has the handler, applications can commit TLV_WRITE and TLV_COMMAND
requests.
For the above scenario, ALSA control core assist notification. When the
handler returns positive value, the core queueing an event for a requested
element. However, this includes design defects that the event is not
queued for the other element in a set. Actually, developers can program
the handlers to keep per-element TLV data, but it depends on each driver.
As of v4.13-rc6, there's no driver in tree to utilize the notification,
except for user-defined element set. This commit delegates the notification
into each driver to prevent developers from the design defects.

In ALSA control interface, applications can execute two types of request
for value of members on each element; ELEM_READ and ELEM_WRITE. In ALSA
control core, these two requests are handled within read lock of a
counting semaphore, therefore several processes can run to execute these
two requests at the same time. This has an issue because ELEM_WRITE
requests have an effect to change state of the target element. Concurrent
access should be controlled for each of ELEM_READ/ELEM_WRITE case.
This commit uses the counting semaphore as write lock for ELEM_WRITE
requests, while use it as read lock for ELEM_READ requests. The state of
a target element is maintained exclusively between ELEM_WRITE/ELEM_READ
operations.
There's a concern. If the counting semaphore is acquired for read lock
in implementations of 'struct snd_kcontrol.put()' in each driver, this
commit shall cause dead lock. As of v4.13-rc5, 'snd-mixer-oss.ko',
'snd-emu10k1.ko' and 'snd-soc-sst-atom-hifi2-platform.ko' includes codes
for read locks, but these are not in a call graph from
'struct snd_kcontrol.put(). Therefore, this commit is safe.
In current implementation, the same solution is applied for the other
operations to element; e.g. ELEM_LOCK and ELEM_UNLOCK. There's another
discussion about an overhead to maintain concurrent access to an element
during operating the other elements on the same card instance, because the
lock primitive is originally implemented to maintain a list of elements on
the card instance. There's a substantial difference between
per-element-list lock and per-element lock.
Here, let me investigate another idea to add per-element lock to maintain
the concurrent accesses with inquiry/change requests to an element. It's
not so frequent for applications to operate members on elements, while
adding a new lock primitive to structure increases memory footprint for
all of element sets somehow. Experimentally, inquiry operation is more
frequent than change operation and usage of counting semaphore for the
inquiry operation brings no blocking to the other inquiry operations. Thus
the overhead is not so critical for usual applications. For the above
reasons, in this commit, the per-element lock is not introduced.

This commit moves the lock acquisition to middle of the call graph to
simplify the helper functions. As a result:

Any control event is queued by a call of snd_ctl_notify(). This function
adds the event to each queue of opened file data corresponding to ALSA
control character devices. This function acquired two types of lock; a
counting semaphore for a list of the opened file data and a spinlock for
card data opened by the file. Typically, this function is called after
acquiring a counting semaphore for a list of elements in the card data.
In current implementation of a handler for ELEM_WRITE request, the
function is called after releasing the semaphore for a list of elements
in the card data. This release is not necessarily needed.
This commit removes the release to call the function within the critical
section so that later commits are simple.

commit 4842e98f26 ("ALSA: seq: Fix race at
creating a queue") attempted to fix a race reported by syzkaller. That
fix has been described as follows:
"
When a sequencer queue is created in snd_seq_queue_alloc(),it adds the
new queue element to the public list before referencing it. Thus the
queue might be deleted before the call of snd_seq_queue_use(), and it
results in the use-after-free error, as spotted by syzkaller.
The fix is to reference the queue object at the right time.
"
Even with that fix in place, syzkaller reported a use-after-free error.
It specifically pointed to the last instruction "return q->queue" in
snd_seq_queue_alloc(). The pointer q is being used after kfree() has
been called on it.
It turned out that there is still a small window where a race can
happen. The window opens at
snd_seq_ioctl_create_queue()->snd_seq_queue_alloc()->queue_list_add()
and closes at
snd_seq_ioctl_create_queue()->queueptr()->snd_use_lock_use(). Between
these two calls, a different thread could delete the queue and possibly
re-create a different queue in the same location in queue_list.
This change prevents this situation by calling snd_use_lock_use() from
snd_seq_queue_alloc() prior to calling queue_list_add(). It is then the
caller's responsibility to call snd_use_lock_free(&q->use_lock).
