PM / OPP / clk: Remove unnecessary OOM message

2015-02-12T01:00:52Z

This patch reduces the kernel size by removing error messages that duplicate the normal OOM message. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) @@ identifier f,print,l; expression e; constant char[] c; @@ e = \(kzalloc\|kmalloc\|devm_kzalloc\|devm_kmalloc\)(...); if (e == NULL) { <+... - print(...,c,...); ... when any ( goto l; | return ...; ) ...+> } Signed-off-by: Quentin Lambert Acked-by: Nishanth Menon Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

firmware_loader: handle timeout via wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout()

2015-02-03T23:33:10Z

It is simpler to handle timeout by wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout(), so remove previous delay work for timeout. Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware_loader: abort request if wait_for_completion is interrupted

2015-02-03T23:33:10Z

If current request is interrupted by signal, such as 'ctrl + c', this request has to be aborted for the following reasons: - the buf need to be removed from pending list - same requests from other contexts need to be completed Reported-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware: Correct function name in comment

2015-02-03T23:32:18Z

Use the correct function name in the kernel-doc comment above it. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov Acked-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware class: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "vunmap"

2014-11-27T03:41:15Z

The vunmap() function performes also input parameter validation. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware loader: fix hung task warning dump

2014-11-27T03:41:15Z

When using request_firmware_nowait() with FW_ACTION_NOHOTPLUG param to expose user helper interface, if the user do not react immediately, after 120 seconds there will be a hung task warning message dumped as below: [ 3000.784235] INFO: task kworker/0:0:8259 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

firmware_class: make sure fw requests contain a name

2014-09-24T06:26:58Z

An empty firmware request name will trigger warnings when building device names. Make sure this is caught earlier and rejected. The warning was visible via the test_firmware.ko module interface: echo -ne "\x00" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_firmware/trigger_request Reported-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Tested-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

firmware_class: perform new LSM checks

2014-07-25T18:47:45Z

This attaches LSM hooks to the existing firmware loading interfaces: filesystem-found firmware and demand-loaded blobs. On errors, loads are aborted and the failure code is returned to userspace. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: Takashi Iwai Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
