018a7bf1e5 netfilter: ip{,6}t_policy.h should include xp_policy.h
It seems that all of the include/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6}/{ipt,ip6t}_*.h which
share constants include the corresponding include/netfilter/xp_*.h files.
Neither ipt_policy.h not ip6t_policy.h do.  Make these consistant with
the norm.

13d2a1d2b0 pkt_sched: add DRR scheduler
Add classful DRR scheduler as a more flexible replacement for SFQ.

The main difference to the algorithm described in "Efficient Fair Queueing
using Deficit Round Robin" is that this implementation doesn't drop packets
from the longest queue on overrun because its classful and limits are
handled by each individual child qdisc.

0c19b0adb8 netlink: avoid memset of 0 bytes sparse warning
A netlink attribute padding of zero triggers this sparse warning:

include/linux/netlink.h:245:8: warning: memset with byte count of 0

Avoid the memset when the size parameter is constant and requires no padding.

d214c7537b filter: add SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST to look for nested attributes
SKF_AD_NLATTR allows us to find the first matching attribute in a
stream of netlink attributes from one offset to the end of the
netlink message. This is not suitable to look for a specific
matching inside a set of nested attributes.

For example, in ctnetlink messages, if we look for the CTA_V6_SRC
attribute in a message that talks about an IPv4 connection,
SKF_AD_NLATTR returns the offset of CTA_STATUS which has the same
value of CTA_V6_SRC but outside the nest. To differenciate
CTA_STATUS and CTA_V6_SRC, we would have to make assumptions on the
size of the attribute and the usual offset, resulting in horrible
BSF code.

This patch adds SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST, which is a variant of
SKF_AD_NLATTR, that looks for an attribute inside the limits of
a nested attributes, but not further.

This patch validates that we have enough room to look for the
nested attributes - based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.

eeda3fd64f netdev: introduce dev_get_stats()
In order for the network device ops get_stats call to be immutable, the handling
of the default internal network device stats block has to be changed. Add a new
helper function which replaces the old use of internal_get_stats.

Note: change return code to make it clear that the caller should not
go changing the returned statistics.

d314774cf2 netdev: network device operations infrastructure
This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative
operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure.

This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the
new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once.
For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list
still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new
net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers.

After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to
an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable.

Some function pointers aren't moved:
* destructor can't be in net_device_ops because
  it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded.
* neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special
  consideration
* hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

f481891fdc cpuset: update top cpuset's mems after adding a node
After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function

  cpuset_track_online_nodes()

was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes.  It is wrong because
N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use
N_HIGH_MEMORY.  So, We should invoke the update function after
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says.

This patch fixes it.  And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of
direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

de11defebf reintroduce accept4
Introduce a new accept4() system call.  The addition of this system call
matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(),
inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls
that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags
argument that can be used to access additional functionality.

The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that
it adds a flags bit-mask argument.  Two flags are initially implemented.
(Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.)

SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled
for the new file descriptor returned by accept4().  This is a useful
security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded
program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as
another thread is doing a fork() plus exec().  More details here:
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling",
Ulrich Drepper).

The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag
to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4().
(This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls
fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result.

Here's a test program.  Works on x86-32.  Should work on x86-64, but
I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with.

It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of
SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies
that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file
description returned by accept4().

I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2,
and it passes according to my test program.

1e291b14c8 of: Add helpers for finding device nodes which have a given property
This commit adds a routine for finding a device node which has a
certain property.  The contents of the property are not taken into
account, merely the presence or absence of the property.

Based on that routine, we add a for_each_ macro for iterating over all
nodes that have a certain property.

0231022cc3 tracing/function-return-tracer: add the overrun field
Impact: help to find the better depth of trace

We decided to arbitrary define the depth of function return trace as
"20". Perhaps this is not enough. To help finding an optimal depth, we
measure now the overrun: the number of functions that have been missed
for the current thread. By default this is not displayed, we have to
do set a particular flag on the return tracer: echo overrun >
/debug/tracing/trace_options And the overrun will be printed on the
right.

As the trace shows below, the current 20 depth is not enough.

dd9c0e363c dccp: Deprecate Ack Ratio sysctl
This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since
 * Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4,
 * Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1);
 * even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it:
   - Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2),
   - if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts
     (since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window),
   - cwnd is not a user-configurable value.

The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is
planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe.

With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation:
 * Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID;
 * if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to
   the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack
   Ratio 2 for both endpoints";
 * what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the
   dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

Thanks to Tomasz Grobelny for discussion leading up to this patch.

2945055984 dccp: Feature negotiation for minimum-checksum-coverage
This provides feature negotiation for server minimum checksum coverage
which so far has been missing.

Since sender/receiver coverage values range only from 0...15, their
type has also been reduced in size from u16 to u4.

Feature-negotiation options are now generated for both sender and receiver
coverage, i.e. when the peer has `forgotten' to enable partial coverage
then feature negotiation will automatically enable (negotiate) the partial
coverage value for this connection.

49aebc66d6 dccp: Deprecate old setsockopt framework
The previous setsockopt interface, which passed socket options via struct
dccp_so_feat, is complicated/difficult to use. Continuing to support it leads to
ugly code since the old approach did not distinguish between NN and SP values.

This patch removes the old setsockopt interface and replaces it with two new
functions to register NN/SP values for feature negotiation. 
These are essentially wrappers around the internal __feat_register functions,
with checking added to avoid

 * wrong usage (type);
 * changing values while the connection is in progress.

3f2c31d903 virtio_net: VIRTIO_NET_F_MSG_RXBUF (imprive rcv buffer allocation)
If segmentation offload is enabled by the host, we currently allocate
maximum sized packet buffers and pass them to the host. This uses up
20 ring entries, allowing us to supply only 20 packet buffers to the
host with a 256 entry ring. This is a huge overhead when receiving
small packets, and is most keenly felt when receiving MTU sized
packets from off-host.

The VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature flag is set by hosts which support
using receive buffers which are smaller than the maximum packet size.
In order to transfer large packets to the guest, the host merges
together multiple receive buffers to form a larger logical buffer.
The number of merged buffers is returned to the guest via a field in
the virtio_net_hdr.

Make use of this support by supplying single page receive buffers to
the host. On receive, we extract the virtio_net_hdr, copy 128 bytes of
the payload to the skb's linear data buffer and adjust the fragment
offset to point to the remaining data. This ensures proper alignment
and allows us to not use any paged data for small packets. If the
payload occupies multiple pages, we simply append those pages as
fragments and free the associated skbs.

This scheme allows us to be efficient in our use of ring entries
while still supporting large packets. Benchmarking using netperf from
an external machine to a guest over a 10Gb/s network shows a 100%
improvement from ~1Gb/s to ~2Gb/s. With a local host->guest benchmark
with GSO disabled on the host side, throughput was seen to increase
from 700Mb/s to 1.7Gb/s.

bbaffaca48 rcu: Introduce hlist_nulls variant of hlist
hlist uses NULL value to finish a chain.

hlist_nulls variant use the low order bit set to 1 to signal an end-of-list marker.

This allows to store many different end markers, so that some RCU lockless
algos (used in TCP/UDP stack for example) can save some memory barriers in
fast paths.

Two new files are added :

include/linux/list_nulls.h
  - mimics hlist part of include/linux/list.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant

include/linux/rculist_nulls.h
  - mimics hlist part of include/linux/rculist.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant

   Only four helpers are declared for the moment :

     hlist_nulls_del_init_rcu(), hlist_nulls_del_rcu(),
     hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu() and hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu()

prefetches() were removed, since an end of list is not anymore NULL value.
prefetches() could trigger useless (and possibly dangerous) memory transactions.

Example of use (extracted from __udp4_lib_lookup())

	struct sock *sk, *result;
        struct hlist_nulls_node *node;
        unsigned short hnum = ntohs(dport);

e7d3737ea1 tracing/function-return-tracer: support for dynamic ftrace on function return tracer
This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer.
The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need
to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set
dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here).

Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for
return tracing while normal function tracing is already running.

An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter:

ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1825 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1426 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1464 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1524 ns)

31e889098a ftrace: pass module struct to arch dynamic ftrace functions
Impact: allow archs more flexibility on dynamic ftrace implementations

Dynamic ftrace has largly been developed on x86. Since x86 does not
have the same limitations as other architectures, the ftrace interaction
between the generic code and the architecture specific code was not
flexible enough to handle some of the issues that other architectures
have.

Most notably, module trampolines. Due to the limited branch distance
that archs make in calling kernel core code from modules, the module
load code must create a trampoline to jump to what will make the
larger jump into core kernel code.

The problem arises when this happens to a call to mcount. Ftrace checks
all code before modifying it and makes sure the current code is what
it expects. Right now, there is not enough information to handle modifying
module trampolines.

This patch changes the API between generic dynamic ftrace code and
the arch dependent code. There is now two functions for modifying code:

  ftrace_make_nop(mod, rec, addr) - convert the code at rec->ip into
       a nop, where the original text is calling addr. (mod is the
       module struct if called by module init)

  ftrace_make_caller(rec, addr) - convert the code rec->ip that should
       be a nop into a caller to addr.

The record "rec" now has a new field called "arch" where the architecture
can add any special attributes to each call site record.

8f7b0ba1c8 Fix inotify watch removal/umount races
Inotify watch removals suck violently.

To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex.  That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount.  We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.

Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done.  Cleanup is just deactivate_super().

However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords.  That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.

We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable.  OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e.  that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().

So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong.  We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount.  So the watch
could've been gone already.

That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer.  If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address.  That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that.  Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.

So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check.  If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.

And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

3a3b7ce933 CRED: Allow kernel services to override LSM settings for task actions
Allow kernel services to override LSM settings appropriate to the actions
performed by a task by duplicating a set of credentials, modifying it and then
using task_struct::cred to point to it when performing operations on behalf of
a task.

This is used, for example, by CacheFiles which has to transparently access the
cache on behalf of a process that thinks it is doing, say, NFS accesses with a
potentially inappropriate (with respect to accessing the cache) set of
credentials.

This patch provides two LSM hooks for modifying a task security record:

 (*) security_kernel_act_as() which allows modification of the security datum
     with which a task acts on other objects (most notably files).

 (*) security_kernel_create_files_as() which allows modification of the
     security datum that is used to initialise the security data on a file that
     a task creates.

The patch also provides four new credentials handling functions, which wrap the
LSM functions:

 (1) prepare_kernel_cred()

     Prepare a set of credentials for a kernel service to use, based either on
     a daemon's credentials or on init_cred.  All the keyrings are cleared.

 (2) set_security_override()

     Set the LSM security ID in a set of credentials to a specific security
     context, assuming permission from the LSM policy.

 (3) set_security_override_from_ctx()

     As (2), but takes the security context as a string.

 (4) set_create_files_as()

     Set the file creation LSM security ID in a set of credentials to be the
     same as that on a particular inode.

3b11a1dece CRED: Differentiate objective and effective subjective credentials on a task
Differentiate the objective and real subjective credentials from the effective
subjective credentials on a task by introducing a second credentials pointer
into the task_struct.

task_struct::real_cred then refers to the objective and apparent real
subjective credentials of a task, as perceived by the other tasks in the
system.

task_struct::cred then refers to the effective subjective credentials of a
task, as used by that task when it's actually running.  These are not visible
to the other tasks in the system.

__task_cred(task) then refers to the objective/real credentials of the task in
question.

current_cred() refers to the effective subjective credentials of the current
task.

prepare_creds() uses the objective creds as a base and commit_creds() changes
both pointers in the task_struct (indeed commit_creds() requires them to be the
same).

override_creds() and revert_creds() change the subjective creds pointer only,
and the former returns the old subjective creds.  These are used by NFSD,
faccessat() and do_coredump(), and will by used by CacheFiles.

In SELinux, current_has_perm() is provided as an alternative to
task_has_perm().  This uses the effective subjective context of current,
whereas task_has_perm() uses the objective/real context of the subject.

a6f76f23d2 CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials
Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials, allowing it to set
up the credentials in advance, and then commit the whole lot after the point
of no return.

This patch and the preceding patches have been tested with the LTP SELinux
testsuite.

This patch makes several logical sets of alteration:

 (1) execve().

     The credential bits from struct linux_binprm are, for the most part,
     replaced with a single credentials pointer (bprm->cred).  This means that
     all the creds can be calculated in advance and then applied at the point
     of no return with no possibility of failure.

     I would like to replace bprm->cap_effective with:

	cap_isclear(bprm->cap_effective)

     but this seems impossible due to special behaviour for processes of pid 1
     (they always retain their parent's capability masks where normally they'd
     be changed - see cap_bprm_set_creds()).

     The following sequence of events now happens:

     (a) At the start of do_execve, the current task's cred_exec_mutex is
     	 locked to prevent PTRACE_ATTACH from obsoleting the calculation of
     	 creds that we make.

     (a) prepare_exec_creds() is then called to make a copy of the current
     	 task's credentials and prepare it.  This copy is then assigned to
     	 bprm->cred.

  	 This renders security_bprm_alloc() and security_bprm_free()
     	 unnecessary, and so they've been removed.

     (b) The determination of unsafe execution is now performed immediately
     	 after (a) rather than later on in the code.  The result is stored in
     	 bprm->unsafe for future reference.

     (c) prepare_binprm() is called, possibly multiple times.

     	 (i) This applies the result of set[ug]id binaries to the new creds
     	     attached to bprm->cred.  Personality bit clearance is recorded,
     	     but now deferred on the basis that the exec procedure may yet
     	     fail.

         (ii) This then calls the new security_bprm_set_creds().  This should
	     calculate the new LSM and capability credentials into *bprm->cred.

	     This folds together security_bprm_set() and parts of
	     security_bprm_apply_creds() (these two have been removed).
	     Anything that might fail must be done at this point.

         (iii) bprm->cred_prepared is set to 1.

	     bprm->cred_prepared is 0 on the first pass of the security
	     calculations, and 1 on all subsequent passes.  This allows SELinux
	     in (ii) to base its calculations only on the initial script and
	     not on the interpreter.

     (d) flush_old_exec() is called to commit the task to execution.  This
     	 performs the following steps with regard to credentials:

	 (i) Clear pdeath_signal and set dumpable on certain circumstances that
	     may not be covered by commit_creds().

         (ii) Clear any bits in current->personality that were deferred from
             (c.i).

     (e) install_exec_creds() [compute_creds() as was] is called to install the
     	 new credentials.  This performs the following steps with regard to
     	 credentials:

         (i) Calls security_bprm_committing_creds() to apply any security
             requirements, such as flushing unauthorised files in SELinux, that
             must be done before the credentials are changed.

	     This is made up of bits of security_bprm_apply_creds() and
	     security_bprm_post_apply_creds(), both of which have been removed.
	     This function is not allowed to fail; anything that might fail
	     must have been done in (c.ii).

         (ii) Calls commit_creds() to apply the new credentials in a single
             assignment (more or less).  Possibly pdeath_signal and dumpable
             should be part of struct creds.

	 (iii) Unlocks the task's cred_replace_mutex, thus allowing
	     PTRACE_ATTACH to take place.

         (iv) Clears The bprm->cred pointer as the credentials it was holding
             are now immutable.

         (v) Calls security_bprm_committed_creds() to apply any security
             alterations that must be done after the creds have been changed.
             SELinux uses this to flush signals and signal handlers.

     (f) If an error occurs before (d.i), bprm_free() will call abort_creds()
     	 to destroy the proposed new credentials and will then unlock
     	 cred_replace_mutex.  No changes to the credentials will have been
     	 made.

 (2) LSM interface.

     A number of functions have been changed, added or removed:

     (*) security_bprm_alloc(), ->bprm_alloc_security()
     (*) security_bprm_free(), ->bprm_free_security()

     	 Removed in favour of preparing new credentials and modifying those.

     (*) security_bprm_apply_creds(), ->bprm_apply_creds()
     (*) security_bprm_post_apply_creds(), ->bprm_post_apply_creds()

     	 Removed; split between security_bprm_set_creds(),
     	 security_bprm_committing_creds() and security_bprm_committed_creds().

     (*) security_bprm_set(), ->bprm_set_security()

     	 Removed; folded into security_bprm_set_creds().

     (*) security_bprm_set_creds(), ->bprm_set_creds()

     	 New.  The new credentials in bprm->creds should be checked and set up
     	 as appropriate.  bprm->cred_prepared is 0 on the first call, 1 on the
     	 second and subsequent calls.

     (*) security_bprm_committing_creds(), ->bprm_committing_creds()
     (*) security_bprm_committed_creds(), ->bprm_committed_creds()

     	 New.  Apply the security effects of the new credentials.  This
     	 includes closing unauthorised files in SELinux.  This function may not
     	 fail.  When the former is called, the creds haven't yet been applied
     	 to the process; when the latter is called, they have.

 	 The former may access bprm->cred, the latter may not.

 (3) SELinux.

     SELinux has a number of changes, in addition to those to support the LSM
     interface changes mentioned above:

     (a) The bprm_security_struct struct has been removed in favour of using
     	 the credentials-under-construction approach.

     (c) flush_unauthorized_files() now takes a cred pointer and passes it on
     	 to inode_has_perm(), file_has_perm() and dentry_open().

d84f4f992c CRED: Inaugurate COW credentials
Inaugurate copy-on-write credentials management.  This uses RCU to manage the
credentials pointer in the task_struct with respect to accesses by other tasks.
A process may only modify its own credentials, and so does not need locking to
access or modify its own credentials.

A mutex (cred_replace_mutex) is added to the task_struct to control the effect
of PTRACE_ATTACHED on credential calculations, particularly with respect to
execve().

With this patch, the contents of an active credentials struct may not be
changed directly; rather a new set of credentials must be prepared, modified
and committed using something like the following sequence of events:

	struct cred *new = prepare_creds();
	int ret = blah(new);
	if (ret < 0) {
		abort_creds(new);
		return ret;
	}
	return commit_creds(new);

There are some exceptions to this rule: the keyrings pointed to by the active
credentials may be instantiated - keyrings violate the COW rule as managing
COW keyrings is tricky, given that it is possible for a task to directly alter
the keys in a keyring in use by another task.

To help enforce this, various pointers to sets of credentials, such as those in
the task_struct, are declared const.  The purpose of this is compile-time
discouragement of altering credentials through those pointers.  Once a set of
credentials has been made public through one of these pointers, it may not be
modified, except under special circumstances:

  (1) Its reference count may incremented and decremented.

  (2) The keyrings to which it points may be modified, but not replaced.

The only safe way to modify anything else is to create a replacement and commit
using the functions described in Documentation/credentials.txt (which will be
added by a later patch).

This patch and the preceding patches have been tested with the LTP SELinux
testsuite.

This patch makes several logical sets of alteration:

 (1) execve().

     This now prepares and commits credentials in various places in the
     security code rather than altering the current creds directly.

 (2) Temporary credential overrides.

     do_coredump() and sys_faccessat() now prepare their own credentials and
     temporarily override the ones currently on the acting thread, whilst
     preventing interference from other threads by holding cred_replace_mutex
     on the thread being dumped.

     This will be replaced in a future patch by something that hands down the
     credentials directly to the functions being called, rather than altering
     the task's objective credentials.

 (3) LSM interface.

     A number of functions have been changed, added or removed:

     (*) security_capset_check(), ->capset_check()
     (*) security_capset_set(), ->capset_set()

     	 Removed in favour of security_capset().

     (*) security_capset(), ->capset()

     	 New.  This is passed a pointer to the new creds, a pointer to the old
     	 creds and the proposed capability sets.  It should fill in the new
     	 creds or return an error.  All pointers, barring the pointer to the
     	 new creds, are now const.

     (*) security_bprm_apply_creds(), ->bprm_apply_creds()

     	 Changed; now returns a value, which will cause the process to be
     	 killed if it's an error.

     (*) security_task_alloc(), ->task_alloc_security()

     	 Removed in favour of security_prepare_creds().

     (*) security_cred_free(), ->cred_free()

     	 New.  Free security data attached to cred->security.

     (*) security_prepare_creds(), ->cred_prepare()

     	 New. Duplicate any security data attached to cred->security.

     (*) security_commit_creds(), ->cred_commit()

     	 New. Apply any security effects for the upcoming installation of new
     	 security by commit_creds().

     (*) security_task_post_setuid(), ->task_post_setuid()

     	 Removed in favour of security_task_fix_setuid().

     (*) security_task_fix_setuid(), ->task_fix_setuid()

     	 Fix up the proposed new credentials for setuid().  This is used by
     	 cap_set_fix_setuid() to implicitly adjust capabilities in line with
     	 setuid() changes.  Changes are made to the new credentials, rather
     	 than the task itself as in security_task_post_setuid().

     (*) security_task_reparent_to_init(), ->task_reparent_to_init()

     	 Removed.  Instead the task being reparented to init is referred
     	 directly to init's credentials.

	 NOTE!  This results in the loss of some state: SELinux's osid no
	 longer records the sid of the thread that forked it.

     (*) security_key_alloc(), ->key_alloc()
     (*) security_key_permission(), ->key_permission()

     	 Changed.  These now take cred pointers rather than task pointers to
     	 refer to the security context.

 (4) sys_capset().

     This has been simplified and uses less locking.  The LSM functions it
     calls have been merged.

 (5) reparent_to_kthreadd().

     This gives the current thread the same credentials as init by simply using
     commit_thread() to point that way.

 (6) __sigqueue_alloc() and switch_uid()

     __sigqueue_alloc() can't stop the target task from changing its creds
     beneath it, so this function gets a reference to the currently applicable
     user_struct which it then passes into the sigqueue struct it returns if
     successful.

     switch_uid() is now called from commit_creds(), and possibly should be
     folded into that.  commit_creds() should take care of protecting
     __sigqueue_alloc().

 (7) [sg]et[ug]id() and co and [sg]et_current_groups.

     The set functions now all use prepare_creds(), commit_creds() and
     abort_creds() to build and check a new set of credentials before applying
     it.

     security_task_set[ug]id() is called inside the prepared section.  This
     guarantees that nothing else will affect the creds until we've finished.

     The calling of set_dumpable() has been moved into commit_creds().

     Much of the functionality of set_user() has been moved into
     commit_creds().

     The get functions all simply access the data directly.

 (8) security_task_prctl() and cap_task_prctl().

     security_task_prctl() has been modified to return -ENOSYS if it doesn't
     want to handle a function, or otherwise return the return value directly
     rather than through an argument.

     Additionally, cap_task_prctl() now prepares a new set of credentials, even
     if it doesn't end up using it.

 (9) Keyrings.

     A number of changes have been made to the keyrings code:

     (a) switch_uid_keyring(), copy_keys(), exit_keys() and suid_keys() have
     	 all been dropped and built in to the credentials functions directly.
     	 They may want separating out again later.

     (b) key_alloc() and search_process_keyrings() now take a cred pointer
     	 rather than a task pointer to specify the security context.

     (c) copy_creds() gives a new thread within the same thread group a new
     	 thread keyring if its parent had one, otherwise it discards the thread
     	 keyring.

     (d) The authorisation key now points directly to the credentials to extend
     	 the search into rather pointing to the task that carries them.

     (e) Installing thread, process or session keyrings causes a new set of
     	 credentials to be created, even though it's not strictly necessary for
     	 process or session keyrings (they're shared).

(10) Usermode helper.

     The usermode helper code now carries a cred struct pointer in its
     subprocess_info struct instead of a new session keyring pointer.  This set
     of credentials is derived from init_cred and installed on the new process
     after it has been cloned.

     call_usermodehelper_setup() allocates the new credentials and
     call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() discards them if they haven't been used.  A
     special cred function (prepare_usermodeinfo_creds()) is provided
     specifically for call_usermodehelper_setup() to call.

     call_usermodehelper_setkeys() adjusts the credentials to sport the
     supplied keyring as the new session keyring.

(11) SELinux.

     SELinux has a number of changes, in addition to those to support the LSM
     interface changes mentioned above:

     (a) selinux_setprocattr() no longer does its check for whether the
     	 current ptracer can access processes with the new SID inside the lock
     	 that covers getting the ptracer's SID.  Whilst this lock ensures that
     	 the check is done with the ptracer pinned, the result is only valid
     	 until the lock is released, so there's no point doing it inside the
     	 lock.

(12) is_single_threaded().

     This function has been extracted from selinux_setprocattr() and put into
     a file of its own in the lib/ directory as join_session_keyring() now
     wants to use it too.

     The code in SELinux just checked to see whether a task shared mm_structs
     with other tasks (CLONE_VM), but that isn't good enough.  We really want
     to know if they're part of the same thread group (CLONE_THREAD).

(13) nfsd.

     The NFS server daemon now has to use the COW credentials to set the
     credentials it is going to use.  It really needs to pass the credentials
     down to the functions it calls, but it can't do that until other patches
     in this series have been applied.

8bbf4976b5 KEYS: Alter use of key instantiation link-to-keyring argument
Alter the use of the key instantiation and negation functions' link-to-keyring
arguments.  Currently this specifies a keyring in the target process to link
the key into, creating the keyring if it doesn't exist.  This, however, can be
a problem for copy-on-write credentials as it means that the instantiating
process can alter the credentials of the requesting process.

This patch alters the behaviour such that:

 (1) If keyctl_instantiate_key() or keyctl_negate_key() are given a specific
     keyring by ID (ringid >= 0), then that keyring will be used.

 (2) If keyctl_instantiate_key() or keyctl_negate_key() are given one of the
     special constants that refer to the requesting process's keyrings
     (KEY_SPEC_*_KEYRING, all <= 0), then:

     (a) If sys_request_key() was given a keyring to use (destringid) then the
     	 key will be attached to that keyring.

     (b) If sys_request_key() was given a NULL keyring, then the key being
     	 instantiated will be attached to the default keyring as set by
     	 keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring().

 (3) No extra link will be made.

Decision point (1) follows current behaviour, and allows those instantiators
who've searched for a specifically named keyring in the requestor's keyring so
as to partition the keys by type to still have their named keyrings.

Decision point (2) allows the requestor to make sure that the key or keys that
get produced by request_key() go where they want, whilst allowing the
instantiator to request that the key is retained.  This is mainly useful for
situations where the instantiator makes a secondary request, the key for which
should be retained by the initial requestor:

	+-----------+        +--------------+        +--------------+
	|           |        |              |        |              |
	| Requestor |------->| Instantiator |------->| Instantiator |
	|           |        |              |        |              |
	+-----------+        +--------------+        +--------------+
	           request_key()           request_key()

This might be useful, for example, in Kerberos, where the requestor requests a
ticket, and then the ticket instantiator requests the TGT, which someone else
then has to go and fetch.  The TGT, however, should be retained in the
keyrings of the requestor, not the first instantiator.  To make this explict
an extra special keyring constant is also added.

da9592edeb CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the filesystem subsystem
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

352d026338 USB: don't register endpoints for interfaces that are going away
This patch (as1155) fixes a bug in usbcore.  When interfaces are
deleted, either because the device was disconnected or because of a
configuration change, the extra attribute files and child endpoint
devices may get left behind.  This is because the core removes them
before calling device_del().  But during device_del(), after the
driver is unbound the core will reinstall altsetting 0 and recreate
those extra attributes and children.

The patch prevents this by adding a flag to record when the interface
is in the midst of being unregistered.  When the flag is set, the
attribute files and child devices will not be created.

Andrew Morton recently suggested having an in-kernel way to profile

When configured, every(*) likely and unlikely macro gets a counter attached
to it. When the condition is hit, the hit and misses of that condition
are recorded. These numbers can later be retrieved by:

  /debugfs/tracing/profile_likely    - All likely markers
  /debugfs/tracing/profile_unlikely  - All unlikely markers.

As you can see by the above, there's a bit of work to do in rethinking
the use of some unlikelys and likelys. Note: the unlikely case had 71 hits
that were more than 25%.

Note:  After submitting my first version of this patch, Andrew Morton
  showed me a version written by Daniel Walker, where I picked up
  the following ideas from:

  1)  Using __builtin_constant_p to avoid profiling fixed values.
  2)  Using __FILE__ instead of instruction pointers.
  3)  Using the preprocessor to stop all profiling of likely
       annotations from vsyscall_64.c.

Thanks to Andrew Morton, Arjan van de Ven, Theodore Tso and Ingo Molnar
for their feed back on this patch.

(*) Not ever unlikely is recorded, those that are used by vsyscalls
 (a few of them) had to have profiling disabled.

d90ebcbfa7 dccp: Query supported CCIDs
This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported
and three accessor functions:
 - a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests
   made by the user;
 - a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation;   
 - documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities.

The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the
list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices).

Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for
feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available
CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}. This means negotiation 
will not fail if the peer requests to use CCID3 instead of CCID2.

a358324466 ring-buffer: buffer record on/off switch
Impact: enable/disable ring buffer recording API added

Several kernel developers have requested that there be a way to stop
recording into the ring buffers with a simple switch that can also
be enabled from userspace. This patch addes a new kernel API to the
ring buffers called:

 tracing_on()
 tracing_off()

When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record
into their buffers.

tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again.

These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the
number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called.

A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called

  tracing_on

This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch.

  echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on

disables the tracing.

  echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on

enables it.

Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears
a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to
their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers.

The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled.

There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers:

 tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers.

 buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set
     if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled.

 cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an
     anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if
     an anomaly occurred.

The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with
tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel
called tracing_stop().

Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it.
It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit.
tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is
it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace
can reenable it at any time.

Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c
  called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

06112163f5 Add a new capable interface that will be used by systems that use audit to
make an A or B type decision instead of a security decision.  Currently
this is the case at least for filesystems when deciding if a process can use
the reserved 'root' blocks and for the case of things like the oom
algorithm determining if processes are root processes and should be less
likely to be killed.  These types of security system requests should not be
audited or logged since they are not really security decisions.  It would be
possible to solve this problem like the vm_enough_memory security check did
by creating a new LSM interface and moving all of the policy into that
interface but proves the needlessly bloat the LSM and provide complex
indirection.

This merely allows those decisions to be made where they belong and to not
flood logs or printk with denials for thing that are not security decisions.

caf4b323b0 tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing
Impact: add infrastructure for function-return tracing

Add low level support for ftrace return tracing.

This plug-in stores return addresses on the thread_info structure of
the current task.

The index of the current return address is initialized when the task
is the first one (init) and when a process forks (the child). It is
not needed when a task does a sys_execve because after this syscall,
it still needs to return on the kernel functions it called.

Note that the code of return_to_handler has been suggested by Steven
Rostedt as almost all of the ideas of improvements in this V3.

For purpose of security, arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c is not traced
because __switch_to() changes the current task during its execution.
That could cause inconsistency in the stored return address of this
function even if I didn't have any crash after testing with tracing on
this function enabled.

ad474caca3 fix for account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed under rq->lock
Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load

This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far.

Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be
called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This
means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just
check ->signal != NULL.

Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock)
before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under
task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care
about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK.

Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.

fc6971d491 mac80211_hwsim: Add support for client PS mode
This introduces a debugfs file (ieee80211/phy#/hwsim/ps) that can be
used to force a simulated radio into power save mode. Following values
can be written into this file to change PS mode:
0 = power save disabled (constantly awake)
1 = power save enabled (drop all frames; do not send PS-Poll)
2 = power save enabled (send PS-Poll frames automatically to receive
    buffered unicast frames); not yet fully implemented
3 = manual PS-Poll trigger (send a single PS-Poll frame)

Two different behavior for power save mode processing can be tested:
- move between modes 1 and 0 (i.e., receive all buffered frames at a
  time)
- move to mode 1 and use manual PS-Poll frames (write 3 to the 'ps'
  debugfs file) to fetch power save buffered frames one at a time

Mode 2 (automatic PS-Poll) does not yet parse Beacon frames, but
eventually, it should take a look at TIM IE and send PS-Poll if a
traffic bit is set for our AID.

8a8bc22332 libata: revert convert-to-block-tagging patches
This patch reverts the following three commits which convert libata to
use block layer tagging.

 43a49cbdf3
 e013e13bf6
 2fca5ccf97

Although using block layer tagging is the right direction, due to the
tight coupling among tag number, data structure allocation and
hardware command slot allocation, libata doesn't work correctly with
the current conversion.

The biggest problem is guaranteeing that tag 0 is always used for
non-NCQ commands.  Due to the way blk-tag is implemented and how SCSI
starts and finishes requests, such guarantee can't be made.  I'm not
sure whether this would actually break any low level driver but it
doesn't look like a good idea to break such assumption given the
frailty of ATA controllers.

So, for the time being, keep using the old dumb in-libata qc
allocation.

architectures where it is used don't do read access reordering, and user
mode preemption is disabled already.  It is nevertheless a good idea to
better elaborate usage requirements wrt preemption, and use an explicit
memory barrier on SMP to avoid different CPUs accessing the counter
value in the wrong order.  On UP a simple compiler barrier is
sufficient.

f400923735 pkt_sched: Control group classifier
The classifier should cover the most common use case and will work
without any special configuration.

The principle of the classifier is to directly access the
task_struct via get_current(). In order for this to work,
classification requests from softirqs must be ignored. This is
not a problem because the vast majority of packets in softirq
context are not assigned to a task anyway. For this to work, a
mechanism is needed to trace softirq context. 

This repost goes back to the method of relying on the number of
nested bh disable calls for the sake of not adding too much
complexity and the option to come up with something more reliable
if actually needed.

505d4f73dd net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device. v2
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace
cleanup.  In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have
and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going
on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the
loopback device is present.   Things like sending igmp unsubscribe
messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing
code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present.

Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard
to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the
loopback device directly from net_dev_init().    This guarantes
that the loopback device is the first device registered and
the last network device to go away.

But do it carefully so we register the loopback device after
we clear dev_boot_phase.

7597bc94d6 Fix accidental implicit cast in HR-timer conversion
Fix the hrtimer_add_expires_ns() function.  It should take a 'u64 ns' argument,
but rather takes an 'unsigned long ns' argument - which might only be 32-bits.

On FRV, this results in the kernel locking up because hrtimer_forward() passes
the result of a 64-bit multiplication to this function, for which the compiler
discards the top 32-bits - something that didn't happen when ktime_add_ns() was
called directly.

The ECDT table is optional, but if it is present, the above text
means that the EC it describes is a required part of the ACPI

2d3854a37e cpumask: introduce new API, without changing anything
Impact: introduce new APIs

We want to deprecate cpumasks on the stack, as we are headed for
gynormous numbers of CPUs.  Eventually, we want to head towards an
undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack.

1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies.
   (cpus_* -> cpumask_*)

2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks
   (cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and)

3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS
   (cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var)

4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code.

5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant),
   not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations
   in future.

6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually
   (for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask'
   definition eventually.

7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old
   cpumask for current thread and manipulating it.

8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except
   taking a cpumask pointer.

Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves
the obsolescent ones in place.  This is to simplify the transition
patches.

60a7ecf426 ftrace: add quick function trace stop
Impact: quick start and stop of function tracer

This patch adds a way to disable the function tracer quickly without
the need to run kstop_machine. It adds a new variable called
function_trace_stop which will stop the calls to functions from mcount
when set.  This is just an on/off switch and does not handle recursion
like preempt_disable().

It's main purpose is to help other tracers/debuggers start and stop tracing
fuctions without the need to call kstop_machine.

The config option HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST is added for archs
that implement the testing of the function_trace_stop in the mcount
arch dependent code. Otherwise, the test is done in the C code.

x86 is the only arch at the moment that supports this.

ae33bc40c0 net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device.
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace
cleanup.  In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have
and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going
on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the
loopback device is present.   Things like sending igmp unsubscribe
messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing
code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present.

Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard
to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the
loopback device directly from net_dev_init().    This guarantes
that the loopback device is the first device registered and
the last network device to go away.

1f29fae297 file capabilities: add no_file_caps switch (v4)
Add a no_file_caps boot option when file capabilities are
compiled into the kernel (CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y).

This allows distributions to ship a kernel with file capabilities
compiled in, without forcing users to use (and understand and
trust) them.

When no_file_caps is specified at boot, then when a process executes
a file, any file capabilities stored with that file will not be
used in the calculation of the process' new capability sets.

This means that booting with the no_file_caps boot option will
not be the same as booting a kernel with file capabilities
compiled out - in particular a task with  CAP_SETPCAP will not
have any chance of passing capabilities to another task (which
isn't "really" possible anyway, and which may soon by killed
altogether by David Howells in any case), and it will instead
be able to put new capabilities in its pI.  However since fI
will always be empty and pI is masked with fI, it gains the
task nothing.

We also support the extra prctl options, setting securebits and
dropping capabilities from the per-process bounding set.

The other remaining difference is that killpriv, task_setscheduler,
setioprio, and setnice will continue to be hooked.  That will
be noticable in the case where a root task changed its uid
while keeping some caps, and another task owned by the new uid
tries to change settings for the more privileged task.

Changelog:
	Nov 05 2008: (v4) trivial port on top of always-start-\
		with-clear-caps patch
	Sep 23 2008: nixed file_caps_enabled when file caps are
		not compiled in as it isn't used.

9fcd18c9e6 sched: re-tune balancing
Impact: improve wakeup affinity on NUMA systems, tweak SMP systems

Given the fixes+tweaks to the wakeup-buddy code, re-tweak the domain
balancing defaults on NUMA and SMP systems.

Turn on SD_WAKE_AFFINE which was off on x86 NUMA - there's no reason
why we would not want to have wakeup affinity across nodes as well.
(we already do this in the standard NUMA template.)

lat_ctx on a NUMA box is particularly happy about this change:

before:

 |   phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
 |   "size=0k ovr=2.60
 |   2 5.70

after:

 |   phoenix:~/l> ./lat_ctx -s 0 2
 |   "size=0k ovr=2.65
 |   2 2.07

a 2.75x speedup.

pipe-test is similarly happy about it too:

 |  phoenix:~/sched-tests> ./pipe-test
 |   18.26 usecs/loop.
 |   14.70 usecs/loop.
 |   14.38 usecs/loop.
 |   10.55 usecs/loop.              # +WAKE_AFFINE on domain0+domain1
 |   8.63 usecs/loop.
 |   8.59 usecs/loop.
 |   9.03 usecs/loop.
 |   8.94 usecs/loop.
 |   8.96 usecs/loop.
 |   8.63 usecs/loop.

Also:

 - disable SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE on NUMA and SMP domains (keep it for siblings)
 - enable SD_WAKE_BALANCE on SMP domains

Sysbench+postgresql improves all around the board, quite significantly:

467622ef2a [MTD] [NOR] Fix cfi_send_gen_cmd handling of x16 devices in x8 mode (v4)
For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need
to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match
the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set.

Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode,
but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to
set it where appropriate.

cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte
is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are
affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device
is known to be in compatibility mode.

[dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa]
v4: Fix  stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile
    I'm writing this patch way to late at night.
v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr
    including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi)
    So every caller doesn't need to.
v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our

9b22ea5609 net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler
The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet
sockets (commit bc1d0411) caused a warning for non-NAPI drivers.
The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers
RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:

[   27.779463] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[   27.779509] WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:136 local_bh_enable+0x37/0x81()

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix this:

- __vlan_hwaccel_rx just stores the VLAN TCI and performs the VLAN
  device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()

- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
  in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
  packet sockets.

fd8cd7e191 x86: vmware: look for DMI string in the product serial key
Impact: Should permit VMware detection on older platforms where the
vendor is changed.  Could theoretically cause a regression if some
weird serial number scheme contains the string "VMware" by pure
chance.  Seems unlikely, especially with the mixed case.

In some user configured cases, VMware may choose not to put a VMware specific
DMI string, but the product serial key is always there and is VMware specific.
Add a interface to check the serial key, when checking for VMware in the DMI
information.

71566a0d16 tracing/fastboot: Enable boot tracing only during initcalls
Impact: modify boot tracer

We used to disable the initcall tracing at a specified time (IE: end
of builtin initcalls). But we don't need it anymore. It will be
stopped when initcalls are finished.

However we want two things:

_Start this tracing only after pre-smp initcalls are finished.

_Since we are planning to trace sched_switches at the same time, we
want to enable them only during the initcall execution.

For this purpose, this patch introduce two functions to enable/disable
the sched_switch tracing during boot.

9663f2e6a6 resources: add io-mapping functions to dynamically map large device apertures
Impact: add new generic io_map_*() APIs

Graphics devices have large PCI apertures which would consume a significant
fraction of a 32-bit address space if mapped during driver initialization.
Using ioremap at runtime is impractical as it is too slow.

This new set of interfaces uses atomic mappings on 32-bit processors and a
large static mapping on 64-bit processors to provide reasonable 32-bit
performance and optimal 64-bit performance.

The current implementation sits atop the io_map_atomic fixmap-based
mechanism for 32-bit processors.

c132419e56 gianfar: Fix race in TBI/SerDes configuration
The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the
SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode).  The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY
(sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the
functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking.

The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and
probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use
the MDIO bus.  This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not
against the gfar_local_mdio versions.

The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time
as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers.

Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is
no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything.
Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which
is associated with the first gianfar device.  This means that the first
gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different
gianfar's PHY.

The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure,
which is pointed to by the PHY.  This is difficult to access from the
gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the
mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers.  As far as the device layer
and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to
share registers).

Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the
first gianfar.  But this might not be the case, so simply locking the
gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup
code is going to use.

We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device
look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's
registers.  If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the
gianfar's platform data.

A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus
ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with
the right ID.  The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure,
which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.

17666f02b1 ftrace: nmi safe code modification
Impact: fix crashes that can occur in NMI handlers, if their code is modified

Modifying code is something that needs special care. On SMP boxes,
if code that is being modified is also being executed on another CPU,
that CPU will have undefined results.

The dynamic ftrace uses kstop_machine to make the system act like a
uniprocessor system. But this does not address NMIs, that can still
run on other CPUs.

One approach to handle this is to make all code that are used by NMIs
not be traced. But NMIs can call notifiers that spread throughout the
kernel and this will be very hard to maintain, and the chance of missing
a function is very high.

The approach that this patch takes is to have the NMIs modify the code
if the modification is taking place. The way this works is that just
writing to code executing on another CPU is not harmful if what is
written is the same as what exists.

Two buffers are used: an IP buffer and a "code" buffer.

The steps that the patcher takes are:

 1) Put in the instruction pointer into the IP buffer
    and the new code into the "code" buffer.
 2) Set a flag that says we are modifying code
 3) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.
 4) Write the code
 5) clear the flag.
 6) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.

If an NMI is executed, it will also write the pending code.
Multiple writes are OK, because what is being written is the same.
Then the patcher must wait for all running NMIs to finish before
going to the next line that must be patched.

This is basically the RCU approach to code modification.

Thanks to Ingo Molnar for suggesting the idea, and to Arjan van de Ven
for his guidence on what is safe and what is not.

situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a
NULL pointer.

We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught
other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did
need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago).

To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking
around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers

Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm

7106a27b52 kernel.h: fix might_sleep kernel-doc
Put the kernel-doc for might_sleep() _immediately_ before the macro
(no intervening lines).  Otherwise kernel-doc complains like so:

Warning(linux-2.6.27-rc3-git2//include/linux/kernel.h:129): No description found for parameter 'file'
Warning(linux-2.6.27-rc3-git2//include/linux/kernel.h:129): No description found for parameter 'line'

because kernel-doc is looking at the wrong function prototype (i.e.,
__might_sleep).  [Yes, I have a todo note to myself to check/warn for that
inconsistency in scripts/kernel-doc.]

0833422274 mm: increase the default mlock limit from 32k to 64k
By default, non-privileged tasks can only mlock() a small amount of
memory to avoid a DoS attack by ordinary users.  The Linux kernel
defaulted to 32k (on a 4k page size system) to accommodate the needs of
gpg.

However, newer gpg2 needs 64k in various circumstances and otherwise
fails miserably, see bnc#329675.

Change the default to 64k, and make it more agnostic to PAGE_SIZE.

96631ed16c udp: introduce sk_for_each_rcu_safenext()
Corey Minyard found a race added in commit 271b72c7fa
(udp: RCU handling for Unicast packets.)

 "If the socket is moved from one list to another list in-between the
 time the hash is calculated and the next field is accessed, and the
 socket has moved to the end of the new list, the traversal will not
 complete properly on the list it should have, since the socket will
 be on the end of the new list and there's not a way to tell it's on a
 new list and restart the list traversal.  I think that this can be
 solved by pre-fetching the "next" field (with proper barriers) before
 checking the hash."

This patch corrects this problem, introducing a new
sk_for_each_rcu_safenext() macro.

5550af4df1 KVM: Fix guest shared interrupt with in-kernel irqchip
Every call of kvm_set_irq() should offer an irq_source_id, which is
allocated by kvm_request_irq_source_id(). Based on irq_source_id, we
identify the irq source and implement logical OR for shared level
interrupts.

The allocated irq_source_id can be freed by kvm_free_irq_source_id().

Currently, we support at most sizeof(unsigned long) different irq sources.

[Amit: - rebase to kvm.git HEAD
       - move definition of KVM_USERSPACE_IRQ_SOURCE_ID to common file
       - move kvm_request_irq_source_id to the update_irq ioctl]

3d5afd324a HID: fix oops during suspend of unbound HID devices
Usbhid structure is allocated on start invoked only from probe
of some driver. When there is no driver, the structure is null
and causes null-dereference oopses.

Fix it by allocating the structure on probe and disconnect of
the device itself. Also make sure we won't race between start
and resume or stop and suspend respectively.

944ac4259e ftrace: ftrace dump on oops control
Impact: add (default-off) dump-trace-on-oops flag

Currently, ftrace is set up to dump its contents to the console if the
kernel panics or oops. This can be annoying if you have trace data in
the buffers and you experience an oops, but the trace data is old or
static.

Usually when you want ftrace to dump its contents is when you are debugging
your system and you have set up ftrace to trace the events leading to
an oops.

This patch adds a control variable called "ftrace_dump_on_oops" that will
enable the ftrace dump to console on oops. This variable is default off
but a developer can enable it either through the kernel command line
by adding "ftrace_dump_on_oops" or at run time by setting (or disabling)
/proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops.

94b6da5ab8 memcg: fix page_cgroup allocation
page_cgroup_init() is called from mem_cgroup_init(). But at this
point, we cannot call alloc_bootmem().
(and this caused panic at boot.)

This patch moves page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c.

Time table is following:
==
  parse_args(). # we can trust mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled bit after this.
  ....
  cgroup_init_early()  # "early" init of cgroup.
  ....
  setup_arch()         # memmap is allocated.
  ...
  page_cgroup_init();
  mem_init();   # we cannot call alloc_bootmem after this.
  ....
  cgroup_init() # mem_cgroup is initialized.
==

Before page_cgroup_init(), mem_map must be initialized. So,
I added page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c directly.

(*) maybe this is not very clean but
    - cgroup_init_early() is too early
    - in cgroup_init(), we have to use vmalloc instead of alloc_bootmem().
    use of vmalloc area in x86-32 is important and we should avoid very large
    vmalloc() in x86-32. So, we want to use alloc_bootmem() and added page_cgroup_init()
    directly to init/main.c

4afe978530 jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint io
When a checkpointing IO fails, current JBD code doesn't check the error
and continue journaling.  This means latest metadata can be lost from both
the journal and filesystem.

This patch leaves the failed metadata blocks in the journal space and
aborts journaling in the case of log_do_checkpoint().  To achieve this, we
need to do:

1. don't remove the failed buffer from the checkpoint list where in
   the case of __try_to_free_cp_buf() because it may be released or
   overwritten by a later transaction
2. log_do_checkpoint() is the last chance, remove the failed buffer
   from the checkpoint list and abort the journal
3. when checkpointing fails, don't update the journal super block to
   prevent the journaled contents from being cleaned.  For safety,
   don't update j_tail and j_tail_sequence either
4. when checkpointing fails, notify this error to the ext3 layer so
   that ext3 don't clear the needs_recovery flag, otherwise the
   journaled contents are ignored and cleaned in the recovery phase
5. if the recovery fails, keep the needs_recovery flag
6. prevent cleanup_journal_tail() from being called between
   __journal_drop_transaction() and journal_abort() (a race issue
   between journal_flush() and __log_wait_for_space()

When an anomaly is detected, we need a way to completely disable

The ftrace_kill tries to do it in a "nice" way by converting everything

The "nice" way is dangerous itself, so this patch removes it and only
has the "atomic" version, which is all that is needed.
