2013-03-13UAPI: fix endianness conditionals in linux/acct.hDavid Howells
In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals). However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for "defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers. The definition of ACCT_BYTEORDER in linux/acct.h is wrong in this way. Note that userspace will likely interpret this incorrectly as the big-endian variant on little-endian machines - depending on header inclusion order. [!!!] NOTE [!!!] This patch may adversely change the userspace API. It might be better to fix the value of ACCT_BYTEORDER.

2013-03-11xen/blkback: correctly respond to unknown, non-native requestsDavid Vrabel
If the frontend is using a non-native protocol (e.g., a 64-bit frontend with a 32-bit backend) and it sent an unrecognized request, the request was not translated and the response would have the incorrect ID. This may cause the frontend driver to behave incorrectly or crash. Since the ID field in the request is always in the same place, regardless of the request type we can get the correct ID and make a valid response (which will report BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP). This bug affected 64-bit SLES 11 guests when using a 32-bit backend. This guest does a BLKIF_OP_RESERVED_1 (BLKIF_OP_PACKET in the SLES source) and would crash in blkif_int() as the ID in the response would be invalid.

This will cause the driver to perform some touchpad specific initializations, such as: * register input device name "Atmel maXTouch Touchpad" instead of Touchscreen. * register BTN_LEFT & BTN_TOOL_* event types. * register axis resolution (as a fixed constant, for now) * register BUTTONPAD property * process GPIO buttons using reportid T19 Input event GPIO mapping is done by the platform data key_map array. key_map[x] should contain the KEY or BTN code to send when processing GPIOx from T19.

2013-03-06acpi: Export the acpi_processor_get_performance_infoKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk
The git commit d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8 (cpufreq: handle cpufreq being disabled for all exported function) tightens the cpufreq API by returning errors when disable_cpufreq() had been called. The problem we are hitting is that the module xen-acpi-processor which uses the ACPI's functions: acpi_processor_register_performance, acpi_processor_preregister_performance, and acpi_processor_notify_smm fails at acpi_processor_register_performance with -22. Note that earlier during bootup in arch/x86/xen/setup.c there is also an call to cpufreq's API: disable_cpufreq(). This is b/c we want the Linux kernel to parse the ACPI data, but leave the cpufreq decisions to the hypervisor. In v3.9 all the checks that d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8 added are now hit and the calls to cpufreq_register_notifier will now fail. This means that acpi_processor_ppc_init ends up printing: "Warning: Processor Platform Limit not supported" and the acpi_processor_ppc_status is not set. The repercussions of that is that the call to acpi_processor_register_performance fails right away at: if (!(acpi_processor_ppc_status & PPC_REGISTERED)) and we don't progress any further on parsing and extracting the _P* objects. The only reason the Xen code called that function was b/c it was exported and the only way to gather the P-states. But we can also just make acpi_processor_get_performance_info be exported and not use acpi_processor_register_performance. This patch does so. Acked-by: Rafael J.

2013-03-04ACPI / glue: Drop .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_typeRafael J. Wysocki
After PCI and USB have stopped using the .find_bridge() callback in struct acpi_bus_type, the only remaining user of it is SATA, but SATA only pretends to be a user, because it points that callback to a stub always returning -ENODEV. For this reason, drop the SATA's dummy .find_bridge() callback and remove .find_bridge(), which is not used any more, from struct acpi_bus_type entirely. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-03-04ACPI / glue: Add .match() callback to struct acpi_bus_typeRafael J. Wysocki
USB uses the .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_type incorrectly, because as a result of the way it is used by USB every device in the system that doesn't have a bus type or parent is passed to usb_acpi_find_device() for inspection. What USB actually needs, though, is to call usb_acpi_find_device() for USB ports that don't have a bus type defined, but have usb_port_device_type as their device type, as well as for USB devices. To fix that replace the struct bus_type pointer in struct acpi_bus_type used for matching devices to specific subsystems with a .match() callback to be used for this purpose and update the users of struct acpi_bus_type, including USB, accordingly. Define the .match() callback routine for USB, usb_acpi_bus_match(), in such a way that it will cover both USB devices and USB ports and remove the now redundant .find_bridge() callback pointer from usb_acpi_bus.

2013-03-03fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman
Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

The above commit combined several arch-specific vma flags into one, and in the process it changed the VM_GROWSUP definition to depend on specific architectures rather than CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP.

2013-03-02metag: ptraceJames Hogan
The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and from the signal context. struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general purpose register context. struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH* registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay taking place. struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in hand optimised data loops. Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers aren't yet exposed through ptrace.
