commit 4e60131d0d36af65ab9c9144f4f163fe97ae36e8 upstream.

hpet_compat_ioctl and read file operations failed to handle parameters from
32-bit userspace and thus samples/timers/hpet_example.c fails as below.

root@intel-x86-64:~# ./hpet_example-32.out poll /dev/hpet 1 2
-hpet: executing poll
hpet_poll: HPET_IRQFREQ failed

This patch fixes cmd and arg handling in hpet_compat_ioctl and adds compat
handling for 32-bit userspace in hpet_read.

hpet_example now shows that it works for both 64-bit and 32-bit.

root@intel-x86-64:~# ./hpet_example-32.out poll /dev/hpet 1 2

tpm_tis_core_init() may fail before tpm_tis_probe_irq_single() is
called, in which case tpm_tis_remove() unconditionally calling
flush_work() is triggering a warning for .func still being NULL.

[ Upstream commit 195aba96b854dd664768f382cd1db375d8181f88 ]

The TPM SPI transfer mechanism uses MAX_SPI_FRAMESIZE for computing the
maximum transfer length and the size of the transfer buffer. As such, it
does not account for the 4 bytes of header that prepends the SPI data
frame. This can result in out-of-bounds accesses and was confirmed with
KASAN.

Introduce SPI_HDRSIZE to account for the header and use to allocate the
transfer buffer.

In register_device, the return value of ida_simple_get is unchecked,
in witch ida_simple_get will use an invalid index value.

To address this issue, index should be checked after ida_simple_get. When
the index value is abnormal, a warning message should be printed, the port
should be dropped, and the value should be recorded.

<title>hwrng: stm32 - repair clock handling</title>

[ Upstream commit c819d7b836c5dfca0854d3e56664293601f2176d ]

The clock management in this driver does not seem to be correct. The
struct hwrng .init callback enables the clock, but there is no matching
.cleanup callback to disable the clock. The clock get disabled as some
later point by runtime PM suspend callback.

Furthermore, both runtime PM and sleep suspend callbacks access registers
first and disable clock which are used for register access second. If the
IP is already in RPM suspend and the system enters sleep state, the sleep
callback will attempt to access registers while the register clock are
already disabled. This bug has been fixed once before already in commit
9bae54942b13 ("hwrng: stm32 - fix pm_suspend issue"), and regressed in
commit ff4e46104f2e ("hwrng: stm32 - rework power management sequences") .

Fix this slightly differently, disable register clock at the end of .init
callback, this way the IP is disabled after .init. On every access to the
IP, which really is only stm32_rng_read(), do pm_runtime_get_sync() which
is already done in stm32_rng_read() to bring the IP from RPM suspend, and
pm_runtime_mark_last_busy()/pm_runtime_put_sync_autosuspend() to put it
back into RPM suspend.

Change sleep suspend/resume callbacks to enable and disable register clock
around register access, as those cannot use the RPM suspend/resume callbacks
due to slightly different initialization in those sleep callbacks. This way,
the register access should always be performed with clock surely enabled.

<title>random: handle creditable entropy from atomic process context</title>
<updated>2024-04-17T11:53:18Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Jason A. Donenfeld</name>
<email>Jason@zx2c4.com</email>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=e871abcda3b67d0820b4182ebe93435624e9c6a4'/>
<id>urn:sha1:e871abcda3b67d0820b4182ebe93435624e9c6a4</id>
<content type='text'>
The entropy accounting changes a static key when the RNG has
initialized, since it only ever initializes once. Static key changes,
however, cannot be made from atomic context, so depending on where the
last creditable entropy comes from, the static key change might need to
be deferred to a worker.

Previously the code used the execute_in_process_context() helper
function, which accounts for whether or not the caller is
in_interrupt(). However, that doesn't account for the case where the
caller is actually in process context but is holding a spinlock.

This turned out to be the case with input_handle_event() in
drivers/input/input.c contributing entropy:

  [&lt;ffffffd613a81310&gt;] input_event+0x6c/0x98

According to Guoyong, it's not really possible to refactor the various
drivers to never hold a spinlock there. And in_atomic() isn't reliable.

So, rather than trying to be too fancy, just punt the change in the
static key to a workqueue always. There's basically no drawback of doing
this, as the code already needed to account for the static key not
changing immediately, and given that it's just an optimization, there's
not exactly a hurry to change the static key right away, so deferal is
fine.
