HID: nintendo: add IMU support

This patch adds support for the controller's IMU. The accelerometer and
gyro data are both provided to userspace using a second input device.
The devices can be associated using their uniq value (set to the
controller's MAC address).

A large part of this patch's functionality was provided by Carl Mueller.

The IMU device is blacklisted from the joydev input handler.

Input: joydev - prevent use of not validated data in JSIOCSBTNMAP ioctl

Even though we validate user-provided inputs we then traverse past
validated data when applying the new map. The issue was originally
discovered by Murray McAllister with this simple POC (if the following
is executed by an unprivileged user it will instantly panic the system):

int main(void) {
int fd, ret;
unsigned int buffer[10000];

fd = open("/dev/input/js0", O_RDONLY);
if (fd == -1)
printf("Error opening file\n");

ret = ioctl(fd, JSIOCSBTNMAP & ~IOCSIZE_MASK, &buffer);
printf("%d\n", ret);
}

The solution is to traverse internal buffer which is guaranteed to only
contain valid date when constructing the map.

module: remove never implemented MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE

MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE was added in pre-git era and never was
implemented. We can safely remove it, because the kernel has grown
to have many more reliable mechanisms to determine if device is
supported or not.

Input: joydev - prevent potential read overflow in ioctl

The problem here is that "len" might be less than "joydev->nabs" so the
loops which verfy abspam[i] and keypam[] might read beyond the buffer.

*: convert stream-like files from nonseekable_open -> stream_open

Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422
("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write
can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to
stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and
write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods
in file_operations which assume @offset access.

I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert -
and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct
to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci
limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to
convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek
for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)

Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock
(see details in 10dce8af3422):

and the rest were just safe to convert to stream_open because their read and
write do not use ppos at all and corresponding file_operations do not
have methods that assume @offset file access(*):

(*) This second group also contains cases with read/write deadlocks that
stream_open.cocci don't yet detect, but which are still valid to convert to
stream_open since ppos is not used. For example drivers/pci/switch/switchtec.c
calls wait_for_completion_interruptible() in its .read, but stream_open.cocci
currently detects only "wait_event*" as blocking.

# a9a08845 11-Feb-2018 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Input: joydev - do not report stale values on first open

Postpone axis initialization to the first open instead of doing it
in joydev_connect. This is to make sure the generated startup events
are representative of the current joystick state rather than what
it was when joydev_connect() was called, potentially much earlier.
Once the first user is connected to joydev node we'll be updating
joydev->abs[] values and subsequent clients will be getting correct
initial states as well.

This solves issues with joystick driven menus that start scrolling
up each time they are started, until the user moves the joystick to
generate events. In emulator menu setups where the menu program is
restarted every time the game exits, the repeated need to move the
joystick to stop the unintended scrolling gets old rather quickly...

There are joystick devices that do not have those axes, for example TRC

causing it not being detected as joystick.

This patch adds ABS_Z to the input_device_id list allowing devices with

path than the old code in which the buffer allocated by kmalloc() was
freed if copy_from_user() failed.

This is of course wrong since if memdup_user() fails, no memory was
allocated and the error in the error-valued pointer should be returned.

Commit 7f8d4cad1e4e ("Input: extend the number of event (and other)

Unfortunately character device structure may outlive the parent
structure unless we do not set it up as parent of character device so
that it will stay pinned until character device is freed.

Also, now that parent structure is pinned while character device exists
we do not need to pin and unpin it every time user opens or closes it.

llseek: automatically add .llseek fop

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Input: joydev - validate axis/button maps before clobbering current ones

Up to now axis and button map validation was done after the user-supplied
values were copied over the driver's map. This patch copies the
user-supplied values into temporary buffers and validated them before
overwriting the driver's permanent maps.

Also change JSIOCGBTNMAP and JSIOCGAXMAP to return number of bytes returned
to userspace instead of 0.

Input: joydev - decouple axis and button map ioctls from input constants

The KEY_MAX change in 2.6.28 changed the values of the JSIOCSBTNMAP and
JSIOCGBTNMAP constants; software compiled with the old values no longer
works with kernels following 2.6.28, because the ioctl switch statement
no longer matches the values given by the software. This patch handles
these ioctls independently of the length of data specified, and applies the
same treatment to JSIOCSAXMAP and JSIOCGAXMAP which currently depend on
ABS_MAX.

Input: fix EVIOCGNAME/JSIOCGNAME regression

Commit 3d5cb60e ("Input: simplify name handling for certain input
handles") introduced a regression for the EVIOCGNAME/JSIOCGNAME
ioctl.

Before this, patch, the platform device's name was given back to
userspace which was good to identify devices. After this patch, the
device is ("event%d", minor) which is not descriptive at all.

This fixes the behaviour by taking dev->name.

joydev driver while the resulting device is broken. This causes problems with

# 60aa4924 01-Feb-2009 Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Rationalize fasync return values

Most fasync implementations do something like:

return fasync_helper(...);

But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place. Thus, a number of other drivers do:

err = fasync_helper(...);
if (err < 0)
return err;
return 0;

In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

saner FASYNC handling on file close

As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

Recent driver core change causes references to parent devices being
dropped early, at device_del() time, as opposed to when all children
are freed. This causes oops in evdev with grabbed devices. Take the

Input: reduce raciness when input handlers disconnect

There is a race between input handler's release() and disconnect()
methods: when input handler disconnects it wakes up all regular
users and then process to walk user list to wake up async. users.
While disconnect() walks the list release() removes elements of
the same list causing oopses.

While this is not a substibute for proper locking we can reduce
odds of getting an oops if we wake up normal readers after walking
the list.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

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!
