* sysfs: refill attribute buffer when reading from offset 0Dan Williams2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Requiring userspace to close and re-open sysfs attributes has been the policy since before 2.6.12. It allows userspace to get a consistent snapshot of kernel state and consume it with incremental reads and seeks. Now, if the file position is zero the kernel assumes userspace wants to see the new value. The application for this change is to allow a userspace RAID metadata handler to check the state of an array without causing any memory allocations. Thus not causing writeback to a raid array that might be blocked waiting for userspace to take action.

* PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()Rafael J. Wysocki2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but before it happened, we had introduced the functions device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary, it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the normal device unregistration instead. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT SupportKonrad Rzeszutek2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) structure. What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table? It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target. Currently the iSCSI information is hard-coded in the initrd. The /sysfs entries are read-only one-name-and-value fields. The usual set of data exposed is: # for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do echo -n "$a: "; cat $a; done /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/target-name: iqn.2007.com.intel-sbx44:storage-10gb /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/nic-assoc: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/chap-type: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/lun: 00000000 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/port: 3260 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/ip-addr: 192.168.79.116 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/flags: 3 /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/index: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/mac: 00:11:25:9d:8b:01 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/vlan: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/gateway: 192.168.79.254 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/origin: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/subnet-mask: 255.255.252.0 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/ip-addr: 192.168.77.41 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/flags: 7 /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/index: 0 /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/initiator-name: iqn.2007-07.com:konrad.initiator /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/flags: 3 /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator/index: 0 For full details of the IBFT structure please take a look at: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/support/system_x_pdf/ibm_iscsi_boot_firmware_table_v1.02.pdf [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek <konradr@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Cc: Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

David Brownell adds: More accurately, fixes the "regression" ... as noted sometime last summer, after 296699de6bdc717189a331ab6bbe90e05c94db06 introduced CONFIG_SUSPEND.

* PM: Handle device registrations during suspend/resumeRafael J. Wysocki2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the PM core to protect its data structures, specifically the dpm_active list, from being corrupted if a child of the currently suspending device is registered concurrently with its ->suspend() callback. In that case, since the new device (the child) is added to dpm_active after its parent, the PM core will attempt to suspend it after the parent, which is wrong. Introduce a new member of struct dev_pm_info, called 'sleeping', and use it to check if the parent of the device being added to dpm_active has been suspended, in which case the device registration fails. Also, use 'sleeping' for checking if the ordering of devices on dpm_active is correct. Introduce variable 'all_sleeping' that will be set to 'true' once all devices have been suspended and make new device registrations fail until 'all_sleeping' is reset to 'false', in order to avoid having unsuspended devices around while the system is going into a sleep state. Remove pm_sleep_rwsem which is not necessary any more. Special thanks to Alan Stern for discussions and suggestions that lead to the creation of this patch. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* UIO: Implement a UIO interface for the SMX CryptengineBen Nizette2008-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a UIO interface for the SMX Cryptengine. The Cryptengine found on the Nias Digital SMX board is best suited for a UIO interface. It is not wired in to the cryptographic API as the engine handles it's own keys, algorithms, everything. All that we know about is that if there's room in the buffer, you can write data to it and when there's data ready, you read it out again. There isn't necessarily even any direct correlation between data going in and data coming out again, the engine may consume or generate data all on its own. This driver is for proprietary hardware but we're always told to submit the drivers anyway; here you are. :-) This is version 4 of this patch and addresses all issues raised by Hans-Jürgen Koch and Paul Mundt in their reviews. Slightly altered is Paul's suggestion to use DRV_NAME and DRV_VERSION as the UIO version and name. While at the moment they are the same, there is no reason for them to stay that way. Nevertheless we now at least provide a MODULE_VERSION macro to keep modinfo happy.

This is done to avoid LSM registration clashes in case of more than one bult-in module. User can choose a security module to enable at boot. If no security= boot parameter is specified, only the first LSM asking for registration will be loaded. An invalid security module name will be treated as if no module has been chosen. LSM modules must check now if they are allowed to register by calling security_module_enable(ops) first. Modify SELinux and SMACK to do so. Do not let SMACK register smackfs if it was not chosen on boot. Smackfs assumes that smack hooks are registered and the initial task security setup (swapper->security) is done.

| * [NET]: Fix and allocate less memory for ->priv'less netdevicesAlexey Dobriyan2008-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch effectively reverts commit d0498d9ae1a5cebac363e38907266d5cd2eedf89 aka "[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment." It was found to be buggy because of final unconditional += NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST removal. For example, for sizeof(struct net_device) being 2048 bytes, "alloc_size" was also 2048 bytes, but allocator with debugging options turned on started giving out !32-byte aligned memory resulting in redzones overwrites. Patch does small optimization in ->priv'less case: bumping size to next 32-byte boundary was always done to ensure ->priv will also be aligned. But, no ->priv, no need to do that.

In net/netlabel/netlabel_unlabeled.c::netlbl_unlabel_staticlist_gen() the function is called, but the return value is never checked. If it returns NULL then we'll deref a NULL pointer on the very next line. I checked the callers, and I don't think this can actually happen today, but code changes over time and in the future it might happen and it does no harm to be defensive and check for the failure, so that if/when it happens we'll fail gracefully instead of crashing.

Besides (in case I missed smth with code review) the calltrace tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock `- tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock `- __inet_inherit_port and the similar for DCCP are valid, but assumes BHs to be disabled.
