<id>urn:sha1:7ddb4a594d340e20c1b5f2b00233e472de8d8a2d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit cc20ba4ed8576abfa10a17e81cb4521f474624f0 upstream.

The ir-spi driver has 2 issues which prevents it from working with
lirc:

1. The ir-spi driver uses 16 bits of SPI data to create one cycle of
the waveform. As such our SPI clock needs to be 16x faster than the
carrier frequency.

The driver is inconsistent in how it currently handles this. It
initializes it to the carrier frequency:

But the commit message has some example code which initialises it
to 16x the carrier frequency:

	val = 608000;
	ret = ioctl(fd, LIRC_SET_SEND_CARRIER, &amp;val);

To maintain compatibility with lirc, always do the frequency adjustment
in the driver.

2. lirc presents pulses in microseconds, but the ir-spi driver treats
them as cycles of the carrier. Similar to other lirc drivers, do the
conversion with DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST().

<content type='text'>
commit 9f5039ba440e499d85c29b1ddbc3cbc9dc90e44b upstream.

Since commit e8f4818895b3 ("[media] lirc: advertise
LIRC_CAN_GET_REC_RESOLUTION and improve") lircd uses the ioctl
LIRC_GET_REC_RESOLUTION to determine the shortest pulse or space that
the hardware can detect. This breaks decoding in lirc because lircd
expects the answer in microseconds, but nanoseconds is returned.

commit b2aceb739b5af6a8abc5ea6ab9e6a0409a3b5b1d upstream.

The call to input_register_device() needs to take place
before the repeat parameters are set or the input subsystem
repeat handling will be disabled (as was already noted in
the comments in that function).

commit bd7e31bbade02bc1e92aa00d5cf2cee2da66838a upstream.

gcc-7 suggests that an expression using a bitwise not and a bitmask
on a 'bool' variable is better written using boolean logic:

drivers/media/rc/imon.c: In function 'imon_incoming_scancode':
drivers/media/rc/imon.c:1725:22: error: '~' on a boolean expression [-Werror=bool-operation]
    ictx-&gt;pad_mouse = ~(ictx-&gt;pad_mouse) &amp; 0x1;
                      ^
drivers/media/rc/imon.c:1725:22: note: did you mean to use logical not?

I agree.

Since this driver does no detection of hardware, it might be used with
a non-sir port. Escape out if we are spinning.

A rc device can call ir_raw_event_handle() after rc_allocate_device(),
but before rc_register_device() has completed. This is racey because
rcdev-&gt;raw is set before rcdev-&gt;raw-&gt;thread has a valid value.

<content type='text'>
Pull hw lockdown support from David Howells:
 "Annotation of module parameters that configure hardware resources
  including ioports, iomem addresses, irq lines and dma channels.

  This allows a future patch to prohibit the use of such module
  parameters to prevent that hardware from being abused to gain access
  to the running kernel image as part of locking the kernel down under
  UEFI secure boot conditions.

  Annotations are made by changing:

        module_param(n, t, p)
        module_param_named(n, v, t, p)
        module_param_array(n, t, m, p)

  to:

        module_param_hw(n, t, hwtype, p)
        module_param_hw_named(n, v, t, hwtype, p)
        module_param_hw_array(n, t, hwtype, m, p)

  where the module parameter refers to a hardware setting

  hwtype specifies the type of the resource being configured. This can
  be one of:

        ioport          Module parameter configures an I/O port
        iomem           Module parameter configures an I/O mem address
        ioport_or_iomem Module parameter could be either (runtime set)
        irq             Module parameter configures an I/O port
        dma             Module parameter configures a DMA channel
        dma_addr        Module parameter configures a DMA buffer address
        other           Module parameter configures some other value

  Note that the hwtype is compile checked, but not currently stored (the
  lockdown code probably won't require it). It is, however, there for
  future use.

  A bonus is that the hwtype can also be used for grepping.

  The intention is for the kernel to ignore or reject attempts to set
  annotated module parameters if lockdown is enabled. This applies to
  options passed on the boot command line, passed to insmod/modprobe or
  direct twiddling in /sys/module/ parameter files.

  The module initialisation then needs to handle the parameter not being
  set, by (1) giving an error, (2) probing for a value or (3) using a
  reasonable default.

  What I can't do is just reject a module out of hand because it may
  take a hardware setting in the module parameters. Some important
  modules, some ipmi stuff for instance, both probe for hardware and
  allow hardware to be manually specified; if the driver is aborts with
  any error, you don't get any ipmi hardware.

  Further, trying to do this entirely in the module initialisation code
  doesn't protect against sysfs twiddling.

  [!] Note that in and of itself, this series of patches should have no
      effect on the the size of the kernel or code execution - that is
      left to a patch in the next series to effect. It does mark
      annotated kernel parameters with a KERNEL_PARAM_FL_HWPARAM flag in
      an already existing field"

<id>urn:sha1:5a8fc6a3cebb0dde27584603c5c4b5c72c6d810f</id>
<content type='text'>
When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image.  Whilst this
includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
device to access or modify the kernel image.

To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
specify.  The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
default values for those parameters is.

Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
to manually coded parameters.

This patch annotates drivers in drivers/media/.
