Make the bounds propagation in __reg_assign_32_into_64() slightly more

For the case where both s32_{min,max}_value bounds are positive, the
__reg_assign_32_into_64() directly propagates them to their 64 bit
counterparts, otherwise it pessimises them into [0,u32_max] universe and
tries to refine them later on by learning through the tnum as per comment
in mentioned function. However, that does not always happen, for example,
in mov32 operation we call zext_32_to_64(dst_reg) which invokes the
__reg_assign_32_into_64() as is without subsequent bounds update as
elsewhere thus no refinement based on tnum takes place.
Thus, not calling into the __update_reg_bounds() / __reg_deduce_bounds() /
__reg_bound_offset() triplet as we do, for example, in case of ALU ops via
adjust_scalar_min_max_vals(), will lead to more pessimistic bounds when
dumping the full register state:
Technically, the smin_value=0 and smax_value=4294967295 bounds are not
incorrect, but given the register is still a constant, they break assumptions
about const scalars that smin_value == smax_value and umin_value == umax_value.
Without the smin_value == smax_value and umin_value == umax_value invariant
being intact for const scalars, it is possible to leak out kernel pointers
from unprivileged user space if the latter is enabled. For example, when such
registers are involved in pointer arithmtics, then adjust_ptr_min_max_vals()
will taint the destination register into an unknown scalar, and the latter
can be exported and stored e.g. into a BPF map value.

The change in commit 37086bfdc737 ("bpf: Propagate stack bounds to registers
in atomics w/ BPF_FETCH") around check_mem_access() handling is buggy since
this would allow for unprivileged users to leak kernel pointers. For example,
an atomic fetch/and with -1 on a stack destination which holds a spilled
pointer will migrate the spilled register type into a scalar, which can then
be exported out of the program (since scalar != pointer) by dumping it into
a map value.
The original implementation of XADD was preventing this situation by using
a double call to check_mem_access() one with BPF_READ and a subsequent one
with BPF_WRITE, in both cases passing -1 as a placeholder value instead of
register as per XADD semantics since it didn't contain a value fetch. The
BPF_READ also included a check in check_stack_read_fixed_off() which rejects
the program if the stack slot is of __is_pointer_value() if dst_regno < 0.
The latter is to distinguish whether we're dealing with a regular stack spill/
fill or some arithmetical operation which is disallowed on non-scalars, see
also 6e7e63cbb023 ("bpf: Forbid XADD on spilled pointers for unprivileged
users") for more context on check_mem_access() and its handling of placeholder
value -1.
One minimally intrusive option to fix the leak is for the BPF_FETCH case to
initially check the BPF_READ case via check_mem_access() with -1 as register,
followed by the actual load case with non-negative load_reg to propagate
stack bounds to registers.

Under some conditions, USB gadget devices can show allocated buffer
contents to a host. Fix this up by zero-allocating them so that any
extra data will all just be zeros.
Sometimes USB hosts can ask for buffers that are too large from endpoint
0, which should not be allowed. If this happens for OUT requests, stall
the endpoint, but for IN requests, trim the request size to the endpoint
buffer size.
Jann Horn points out that there is another possible race wrt Unix domain
socket garbage collection, somewhat reminiscent of the one fixed in
commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK").
See the extended comment about the garbage collection requirements added
to unix_peek_fds() by that commit for details.
The race comes from how we can locklessly look up a file descriptor just
as it is in the process of being closed, and with the right artificial
timing (Jann added a few strategic 'mdelay(500)' calls to do that), the
Unix domain socket garbage collector could see the reference count
decrement of the close() happen before fget() took its reference to the
file and the file was attached onto a new file descriptor.
This is all (intentionally) correct on the 'struct file *' side, with
RCU lookups and lockless reference counting very much part of the
design. Getting that reference count out of order isn't a problem per
se.
But the garbage collector can get confused by seeing this situation of
having seen a file not having any remaining external references and then
seeing it being attached to an fd.
In commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK") the
fix was to serialize the file descriptor install with the garbage
collector by taking and releasing the unix_gc_lock.
That's not really an option here, but since this all happens when we are
in the process of looking up a file descriptor, we can instead simply
just re-check that the file hasn't been closed in the meantime, and just
re-do the lookup if we raced with a concurrent close() of the same file
descriptor.
This bug report shows up when running our research tools. The
reports is SOOB read, but it seems SOOB write is also possible
a few lines below.
In details, fw.len and sw.len are inputs coming from io. A len
over the size of self->rpc triggers SOOB. The patch fixes the
bugs by adding sanity checks.
The bugs are triggerable with compromised/malfunctioning devices.
They are potentially exploitable given they first leak up to
0xffff bytes and able to overwrite the region later.
The patch is tested with QEMU emulater.
This is NOT tested with a real device.

Still, adding another flavour just to turn on x32 seems wasteful. And

the operating system's back, and doesn't say so in the RMRR table.
Enabling the IOMMU for all devices causes breakage, but turning it off
for all graphics devices seems like a major weakness.
Add an option, intel_iommu=igpu_off, to exclude only integrated GPUs
from remapping. This is a narrower exclusion than igfx_off: it only
affects Intel devices on the root bus. Devices attached through an
external port (Thunderbolt or ExpressCard) won't be on the root bus.

radeon requires firmware/microcode for the GPU in all chips, but for
newer chips (apparently R600 'Evergreen' onward) it also expects
firmware for the memory controller and other sub-blocks.
radeon attempts to gracefully fall back and disable some features if
the firmware is not available, but becomes unstable - the framebuffer
and/or system memory may be corrupted, or the display may stay black.
Therefore, perform a basic check for the existence of
/lib/firmware/{radeon,amdgpu} when a device is probed, and abort if it
is missing, except for the pre-R600 case.

firmware_class: Log every success and failure against given device
Forwarded: no
The hundreds of users of request_firmware() have nearly as many
different log formats for reporting failures. They also have only the
vaguest hint as to what went wrong; only firmware_class really knows
that. Therefore, add specific log messages for the failure modes that
aren't currently logged.
In case of a driver that tries multiple names, this may result in the
impression that it failed to initialise. Therefore, also log successes.
This makes many error messages in drivers redundant, which will be
removed in later patches.
This does not cover the case where we fall back to a user-mode helper
(which is no longer enabled in Debian).

The module.lds linker script is now built under the scripts directory,
where previously it was under arch/$(SRCARCH).
However, we package the scripts directory as linux-kbuild, which is
meant to be able to do support native and cross-builds. That means it
shouldn't contain files for a specific target architecture without a
wrapper to select between them, and it doesn't appear that linker
scripts are powerful enough to implement such a wrapper.
Building module.lds in a different location would require relatively
large changes. Moving it in the package build rules can work, but we
need to support custom kernel builds from the same source so we can't
assume it's moved.
Therefore, we move module.lds under the arch build directory in
rules.real and change Makefile.modfinal to look for it in both places.

Use RELAXED ieee754 mode for Loongson-3 as 3A 4000 is 2008-only
Forwarded: not-needed
There are 2 mode of value of IEEE NaN hardcoded by CPU.
Currently, our mipsel/mips64el port is in so-called lagacy mode.
Loongson 3A 4000 is set as the so-called 2008 mode.
To make Debian workable on Loongson 3A 4000, we need set the kerenl in
RELAXED mode.
Here's a patch that simply uses hardcoded definitions instead of
doing the dynamic tests that require architecture-specific scripts.
I don't particularly like this approach because it restricts
portability and diverts from upstream. But, it is simpler, and this
really needs to be fixed somehow before etch (along with a rebuild of
linux-modules-extra-2.6), so I'm willing to live with it if my other
patch is deemed unacceptable.
My primary concern is that, in the future, the output of these scripts
will change and we (or our successors) will either not notice or
forget to update the hardcoded values.
Including the scripts in linux-kbuild will avoid this manual step
altogether, and allow for the possibility of other archs to provide
their own scripts in the future.
