ALSA: seq: fix function cast warnings

[ Upstream commit d7bf73809849463f76de42aad62c850305dd6c5d ]

clang-16 points out a control flow integrity (kcfi) issue when event
callbacks get converted to incompatible types:

sound/core/seq/seq_midi.c:135:30: error: cast from 'int (*)(struct snd_rawmidi_substream *, const char *, int)' to 'snd_seq_dump_func_t' (aka 'int (*)(void *, void *, int)') converts to incompatible function type [-Werror,-Wcast-function-type-strict]
135 | snd_seq_dump_var_event(ev, (snd_seq_dump_func_t)dump_midi, substream);

sound/core/seq/seq_virmidi.c:83:31: error: cast from 'int (*)(struct snd_rawmidi_substream *, const unsigned char *, int)' to 'snd_seq_dump_func_t' (aka 'int (*)(void *, void *, int)') converts to incompatible function type [-Werror,-Wcast-function-type-strict]
83 | snd_seq_dump_var_event(ev, (snd_seq_dump_func_t)snd_rawmidi_receive, vmidi->substream);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For addressing those errors, introduce wrapper functions that are used
for callbacks and bridge to the actual function call with pointer
cast.

The code was originally added with the initial ALSA merge in linux-2.5.4.

ALSA: seq: Add port direction to snd_seq_port_info

Add a new field "direction" to snd_seq_port_info for allowing a client
to tell the expected direction of the port access. A port might still
allow subscriptions for read/write (e.g. for MIDI-CI) even if the
primary usage of the port is a single direction (either input or
output only). This new "direction" field can help to indicate such
cases.

When the direction is unspecified at creating a port and the port has
either read or write capability, the corresponding direction bits are
set automatically as default.

ALSA: seq: virmidi: Fix discarding the unsubscribed output

The recent change to move the virmidi output processing to a work
slightly modified the code to discard the unsubscribed outputs so that
it works without a temporary buffer. However, this is actually buggy,
and may spew a kernel warning due to the unexpected call of
snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack(), as triggered by syzbot.

This patch takes back to the original code in that part, use a
temporary buffer and simply repeat snd_rawmidi_transmit(), in order to
address the regression.

ALSA: seq: Minor cleanup of MIDI event parser helpers

snd_midi_event_encode_byte() can never fail, and it can return rather

receive a MIDI byte as unsigned char, and adjust the comment
accordingly. This allows callers to drop error checks, which
simplifies the code.

Meanwhile, snd_midi_event_encode() helper is used only in seq_midi.c,
and it can be better folded into it. This will reduce the total

ALSA: seq: virmidi: Offload the output event processing

The virmidi sequencer stuff tries to translate the rawmidi bytes to
sequencer events and deliver the packets at trigger callback. The
amount of the whole process of these translations and deliveries
depends on the incoming rawmidi bytes, and we have no limit for that;
this was the cause of a CPU soft lockup that had been reported and
fixed recently.

Although we've fixed the soft lockup by putting the temporary unlock
and cond_resched(), it's rather a quick band aid. In this patch,
meanwhile, the event parsing and delivery process is offloaded to a
dedicated work, and the trigger callback just kicks it off. It has
three merits, at least:

- The processing is always done in a sleepable context, which can
assure the event delivery with non-atomic flag without hackish
is_atomic() usage.

- Other relevant codes can be simplified, reducing the lines

- It makes me happier

ALSA: virmidi: Fix too long output trigger loop

The virmidi output trigger tries to parse the all available bytes and
process sequencer events as much as possible. In a normal situation,
this is supposed to be relatively short, but a program may give a huge
buffer and it'll take a long time in a single spin lock, which may
eventually lead to a soft lockup.

This patch simply adds a workaround, a cond_resched() call in the loop
if applicable. A better solution would be to move the event processor
into a work, but let's put a duct-tape quickly at first.

ALSA: seq: Fix races at MIDI encoding in snd_virmidi_output_trigger()

The sequencer virmidi code has an open race at its output trigger
callback: namely, virmidi keeps only one event packet for processing
while it doesn't protect for concurrent output trigger calls.

snd_virmidi_output_trigger() tries to process the previously
unfinished event before starting encoding the given MIDI stream, but
this is done without any lock. Meanwhile, if another rawmidi stream
starts the output trigger, this proceeds further, and overwrites the
event package that is being processed in another thread. This
eventually corrupts and may lead to the invalid memory access if the
event type is like SYSEX.

The fix is just to move the spinlock to cover both the pending event
and the new stream.

The bug was spotted by a new fuzzer, RaceFuzzer.

ALSA: seq: Fix copy_from_user() call inside lock

The event handler in the virmidi sequencer code takes a read-lock for
the linked list traverse, while it's calling snd_seq_dump_var_event()
in the loop. The latter function may expand the user-space data
depending on the event type. It eventually invokes copy_from_user(),
which might be a potential dead-lock.

The sequencer core guarantees that the user-space data is passed only
with atomic=0 argument, but snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event() ignores it
and always takes read-lock(). For avoiding the problem above, this
patch introduces rwsem for non-atomic case, while keeping rwlock for
atomic case.

Also while we're at it: the superfluous irq flags is dropped in
snd_virmidi_input_open().

In the former case, the reason is that virmidi has an open code
calling snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack() with the value calculated outside
the spinlock. We may use snd_rawmidi_transmit() in a loop just for
consuming the input data, but even there, there is a race between
snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and snd_rawmidi_tranmit_ack().

Similarly in the latter case, it calls snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and
snd_rawmidi_tranmit_ack() separately without protection, so they are
racy as well.

The patch tries to address these issues by the following ways:
- Introduce the unlocked versions of snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and
snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack() to be called inside the explicit lock.
- Rewrite snd_rawmidi_transmit() to be race-free (the former case).
- Make the split calls (the latter case) protected in the rawmidi spin
lock.

[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
