Using del_timer() + add_timer() is generally unsafe on SMP,
as noticed by syzbot. Use mod_timer() instead.

ppp and hamradio have copies of the same code that uses a semaphore
in place of a completion for historic reasons. Make it use the
proper interface instead in all copies.

<title>change semantics of ldisc -&gt;compat_ioctl()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f0193d3ea73b966b5dbfa272c8228d743b8856ef</id>
<content type='text'>
First of all, make it return int.  Returning long when native method
had never allowed that is ridiculous and inconvenient.

More importantly, change the caller; if ldisc -&gt;compat_ioctl() is NULL
or returns -ENOIOCTLCMD, tty_compat_ioctl() will try to feed cmd and
compat_ptr(arg) to ldisc's native -&gt;ioctl().

That simplifies -&gt;compat_ioctl() instances quite a bit - they only
need to deal with ioctls that are neither generic tty ones (those
would get shunted off to tty_ioctl()) nor simple compat pointer ones.

Note that something like TCFLSH won't reach -&gt;compat_ioctl(),
even if ldisc -&gt;ioctl() does handle it - it will be recognized
earlier and passed to tty_ioctl() (and ultimately - ldisc -&gt;ioctl()).

For many ldiscs it means that NULL -&gt;compat_ioctl() does the
right thing.  Those where it won't serve (see e.g. n_r3964.c) are
also easily dealt with - we need to handle the numeric-argument
ioctls (calling the native instance) and, if such would exist,
the ioctls that need layout conversion, etc.

All in-tree ldiscs dealt with.

Variable channel is being assigned but is never used hence it is
redundant and can be removed.

Cleans up two clang warnings:

<title>drivers, net, hamradio: convert sixpack.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=956cc1e70c55ba4d5f87b9605ee727bbd225d56d'/>
<id>urn:sha1:956cc1e70c55ba4d5f87b9605ee727bbd225d56d</id>
<content type='text'>
atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
 - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
 - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
 - once counter reaches zero, its further
   increments aren't allowed
 - counter schema uses basic atomic operations
   (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)

Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.

The variable sixpack.refcnt is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

<title>net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.</title>
<updated>2017-06-07T19:53:24Z</updated>
<author>
<name>David S. Miller</name>
</author>
<published>2017-05-08T16:52:56Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=cf124db566e6b036b8bcbe8decbed740bdfac8c6'/>
<id>urn:sha1:cf124db566e6b036b8bcbe8decbed740bdfac8c6</id>

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() or netdev-&gt;destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev-&gt;destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev-&gt;destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev-&gt;destructor().

This is because netdev-&gt;destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev-&gt;destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev-&gt;destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev-&gt;destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit()
and netdev-&gt;priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

With the sane tty locking we now have I believe the following is safe as
we consume the bytes and move them into the decoded buffer before
returning.
