From: Kees Cook <keescook(a)chromium.org>
[ Upstream commit 9e4eb1ce472fbf7b007f23c88ec11c37265e401c ]
Using memcpy() from a string that is shorter than the length copied means
the destination buffer is being filled with arbitrary data from the kernel
rodata segment. Instead, use strncpy() which will fill the trailing bytes
with zeros.
This was found with the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE feature.

From: Wen Xiong <wenxiong(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit f36ea50ca0043e7b1204feaf1d2ba6bd68c08d36 ]
When formatting NVMe to 512B/4K + T10 DIf/DIX, dd with split op returns
"Input/output error". Looks block layer split the bio after calling
bio_integrity_prep(bio). This patch fixes the issue.
Below is how we debug this issue:
(1)format nvme to 4K block # size with type 2 DIF
(2)dd with block size bigger than 1024k.
oflag=direct
dd: error writing '/dev/nvme0n1': Input/output error
We added some debug code in nvme device driver. It showed us the first
op and the second op have the same bi and pi address. This is not
correct.
1st op: nvme0n1 Op:Wr slba 0x505 length 0x100, PI ctrl=0x1400,
dsmgmt=0x0, AT=0x0 & RT=0x505
Guard 0x00b1, AT 0x0000, RT physical 0x00000505 RT virtual 0x00002828
2nd op: nvme0n1 Op:Wr slba 0x605 length 0x1, PI ctrl=0x1400, dsmgmt=0x0,
AT=0x0 & RT=0x605 ==> This op fails and subsequent 5 retires..
Guard 0x00b1, AT 0x0000, RT physical 0x00000605 RT virtual 0x00002828
With the fix, It showed us both of the first op and the second op have
correct bi and pi address.
1st op: nvme2n1 Op:Wr slba 0x505 length 0x100, PI ctrl=0x1400,

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei(a)redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit fb350e0ad99359768e1e80b4784692031ec340e4 ]
In both elevator_switch_mq() and blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues(), sched tags
can be allocated, and q->nr_hw_queue is used, and race is inevitable, for
example: blk_mq_init_sched() may trigger use-after-free on hctx, which is
freed in blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs() when nr_hw_queues is decreased.
This patch fixes the race be holding q->sysfs_lock.

Subject: bcache: segregate flash only volume write streams
From: Tang Junhui <tang.junhui(a)zte.com.cn>
[ Upstream commit 4eca1cb28d8b0574ca4f1f48e9331c5f852d43b9 ]
In such scenario that there are some flash only volumes
, and some cached devices, when many tasks request these devices in
writeback mode, the write IOs may fall to the same bucket as bellow:
| cached data | flash data | cached data | cached data| flash data|
then after writeback of these cached devices, the bucket would
be like bellow bucket:
| free | flash data | free | free | flash data |
So, there are many free space in this bucket, but since data of flash
only volumes still exists, so this bucket cannot be reclaimable,
which would cause waste of bucket space.
In this patch, we segregate flash only volume write streams from
cached devices, so data from flash only volumes and cached devices
can store in different buckets.
Compare to v1 patch, this patch do not add a additionally open bucket
list, and it is try best to segregate flash only volume write streams
from cached devices, sectors of flash only volumes may still be mixed
with dirty sectors of cached device, but the number is very small.

Subject: bcache: stop writeback thread after detaching
From: Tang Junhui <tang.junhui(a)zte.com.cn>
[ Upstream commit 8d29c4426b9f8afaccf28de414fde8a722b35fdf ]
Currently, when a cached device detaching from cache, writeback thread is
not stopped, and writeback_rate_update work is not canceled. For example,
after the following command:
echo 1 >/sys/block/sdb/bcache/detach
you can still see the writeback thread. Then you attach the device to the
cache again, bcache will create another writeback thread, for example,
after below command:
echo ba0fb5cd-658a-4533-9806-6ce166d883b9 > /sys/block/sdb/bcache/attach
then you will see 2 writeback threads.
This patch stops writeback thread and cancels writeback_rate_update work
when cached device detaching from cache.
Compare with patch v1, this v2 patch moves code down into the register
lock for safety in case of any future changes as Coly and Mike suggested.

Subject: backlight: tdo24m: Fix the SPI CS between transfers
From: Robert Jarzmik <robert.jarzmik(a)free.fr>
[ Upstream commit 2023b0524a6310e9ea80daf085f51c71bff9289f ]
Currently the LCD display (TD035S) on the cm-x300 platform is broken and
remains blank.
The TD0245S specification requires that the chipselect is toggled
between commands sent to the panel. This was also the purpose of the
former patch of commit f64dcac0b124 ("backlight: tdo24m: ensure chip
select changes between transfers").
Unfortunately, the "cs_change" field of a SPI transfer is
misleading. Its true meaning is that for a SPI message holding multiple
transfers, the chip select is toggled between each transfer, but for the
last transfer it remains asserted.
In this driver, all the SPI messages contain exactly one transfer, which
means that each transfer is the last of its message, and as a
consequence the chip select is never toggled.
Actually, there was a second bug hidding the first one, hence the
problem was not seen until v4.6. This problem was fixed by commit
a52db659c79c ("spi: pxa2xx: Fix cs_change management") for PXA based
boards.
This fix makes the TD035S work again on a cm-x300 board. The same
applies to other PXA boards, ie. corgi and tosa.
Fixes: a52db659c79c ("spi: pxa2xx: Fix cs_change management")
