2018-05-13ALSA: control: fix a redundant-copy issueWenwen Wang
In snd_ctl_elem_add_compat(), the fields of the struct 'data' need to be copied from the corresponding fields of the struct 'data32' in userspace. This is achieved by invoking copy_from_user() and get_user() functions. The problem here is that the 'type' field is copied twice. One is by copy_from_user() and one is by get_user(). Given that the 'type' field is not used between the two copies, the second copy is *completely* redundant and should be removed for better performance and cleanup. Also, these two copies can cause inconsistent data: as the struct 'data32' resides in userspace and a malicious userspace process can race to change the 'type' field between the two copies to cause inconsistent data. Depending on how the data is used in the future, such an inconsistency may cause potential security risks. For above reasons, we should take out the second copy.

2017-08-30ALSA: Get rid of card power_lockTakashi Iwai
Currently we're taking power_lock at each card component for assuring the power-up sequence, but it doesn't help anything in the implementation at the moment: it just serializes unnecessarily the 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 behavior change, but it can't be a showstopper, after all.

2016-03-17ALSA: ctl: change return value in compatibility layer so that it's the same ↵Takashi Sakamoto
value in core implementation In control compatibility layer, when no elements are found by ELEM_READ/ELEM_WRITE ioctl commands, ENXIO is returned. On the other hand, in core implementation, ENOENT is returned. This is not good for ALSA ctl applications. This commit changes the return value from the compatibility layer so that the same value is returned.

2016-02-28ALSA: ctl: Fix ioctls for X32 ABITakashi Iwai
The X32 ABI takes the same alignment like x86-64, and this may result in the incompatible struct size from ia32. Unfortunately, we hit this in some control ABI: struct snd_ctl_elem_value differs between them due to the position of 64bit variable array. This ends up with the unknown ioctl (ENOTTY) error. The fix is to add the compat entries for the new aligned struct.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

This patch converts most uses of list_for_each to list_for_each_entry all across alsa. In some place apparently an item can be on a list with different pointers so of course that isn't compatible with list_for_each, I therefore didn't touch those places.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
