Linus Torvalds 4974317055 ahci: change 'masking port_map' printk to KERN_WARNING level
It's not so much an error as a warning about normal Marvell crazines.
So don't use KERN_ERR that ends up spamming the console even in quiet
mode, it's not _that_ critical.

Explained by Jeff:

 "Long explanation, it's a mess:

  Marvell took standard AHCI, and bastardized it to include a weird mode
  whereby PATA devices appear inside the AHCI DMA and interrupt
  infrastructure you're familiar with.

  So, PATA devices appear via pata_marvell driver, using basic legacy
  IDE programming interface.  But SATA devices, which might also be
  attached to this chip, either work in under-performing mode or
  simply don't work at all (e.g.  newer 6 Gbps devices or port
  multiplier attachments, NCQ, ...)

  On the other hand, 'ahci' driver loads and works with the chip's
  attached SATA devices quite beautifully, but is completely unable to
  drive any attached PATA devices, due to the Marvell-specific
  PATA-under-AHCI interface.

  The "masking port_map 0x7 -> 0x3" message is the ahci driver "hiding"
  the PATA port(s) from itself, making sure it will only drive the SATA
  ports it knows how to drive."

Petri Gynther cd823db8b1 i2c/pca954x: Initialize the mux to disconnected state
pca954x power-on default is channel 0 connected. If multiple pca954x
muxes are connected to the same physical I2C bus, the parent bus will
see channel 0 devices behind both muxes by default. This is bad.

Scenario:
            -- pca954x @ 0x70 -- ch 0 (I2C-bus-101) -- EEPROM @ 0x50
            |
I2C-bus-1 ---
            |
            -- pca954x @ 0x71 -- ch 0 (I2C-bus-111) -- EEPROM @ 0x50

1. Load I2C bus driver: creates I2C-bus-1
2. Load pca954x driver: creates virtual I2C-bus-101 and I2C-bus-111
3. Load eeprom driver
4. Try to read EEPROM @ 0x50 on I2C-bus-101. The transaction will also bleed
   onto I2C-bus-111 because pca954x @ 0x71 channel 0 is connected by default.

Fix: Initialize pca954x to disconnected state in pca954x_probe()

John Johansen 25e75dff51 AppArmor: Fix masking of capabilities in complain mode
AppArmor is masking the capabilities returned by capget against the
capabilities mask in the profile.  This is wrong, in complain mode the
profile has effectively all capabilities, as the profile restrictions are
not being enforced, merely tested against to determine if an access is
known by the profile.

This can result in the wrong behavior of security conscience applications
like sshd which examine their capability set, and change their behavior
accordingly.  In this case because of the masked capability set being
returned sshd fails due to DAC checks, even when the profile is in complain
mode.

Tetsuo Handa 0e4ae0e0de TOMOYO: Make several options configurable.
To be able to start using enforcing mode from the early stage of boot sequence,
this patch adds support for activating access control without calling external
policy loader program. This will be useful for systems where operations which
can lead to the hijacking of the boot sequence are needed before loading the
policy. For example, you can activate immediately after loading the fixed part
of policy which will allow only operations needed for mounting a partition
which contains the variant part of policy and verifying (e.g. running GPG
check) and loading the variant part of policy. Since you can start using
enforcing mode from the beginning, you can reduce the possibility of hijacking
the boot sequence.

This patch makes several variables configurable on build time. This patch also
adds TOMOYO_loader= and TOMOYO_trigger= kernel command line option to boot the
same kernel in two different init systems (BSD-style init and systemd).

Tetsuo Handa 2e503bbb43 TOMOYO: Fix lockdep warning.
Currently TOMOYO holds SRCU lock upon open() and releases it upon close()
because list elements stored in the "struct tomoyo_io_buffer" instances are
accessed until close() is called. However, such SRCU usage causes lockdep to
complain about leaving the kernel with SRCU lock held.

This patch solves the warning by holding/releasing SRCU upon each
read()/write(). This patch is doing something similar to calling kfree()
without calling synchronize_srcu(), by selectively deferring kfree() by keeping
track of the "struct tomoyo_io_buffer" instances.

Tetsuo Handa 5625f2e326 TOMOYO: Change pathname for non-rename()able filesystems.
TOMOYO wants to use /proc/self/ rather than /proc/$PID/ if $PID matches current
thread's process ID in order to prevent current thread from accessing other
process's information unless needed.

But since procfs can be mounted on various locations (e.g. /proc/ /proc2/ /p/
/tmp/foo/100/p/ ), TOMOYO cannot tell that whether the numeric part in the
string returned by __d_path() represents process ID or not.

Therefore, to be able to convert from $PID to self no matter where procfs is
mounted, this patch changes pathname representations for filesystems which do
not support rename() operation (e.g. proc, sysfs, securityfs).

Examples:
  /proc/self/mounts => proc:/self/mounts
  /sys/kernel/security/ => sys:/kernel/security/
  /dev/pts/0 => devpts:/0

Tetsuo Handa bd03a3e4c9 TOMOYO: Add policy namespace support.
Mauras Olivier reported that it is difficult to use TOMOYO in LXC environments,
for TOMOYO cannot distinguish between environments outside the container and
environments inside the container since LXC environments are created using
pivot_root(). To address this problem, this patch introduces policy namespace.

Each policy namespace has its own set of domain policy, exception policy and
profiles, which are all independent of other namespaces. This independency
allows users to develop policy without worrying interference among namespaces.

Ben Widawsky 25732821cb drm/i915: forcewake fix after reset
The failure is as follows:

1. Userspace gets forcewake lock, lock count >=1
2. GPU hang/reset occurs (forcewake bit is reset)
3. count is now incorrect

The failure can only occur when using the forcewake userspace lock.

This has the unfortunate consequence of messing up the driver as well as
userspace, unless userspace closes the debugfs file, the kernel will
never end up waking the GT since the refcount will be > 1.

The solution is to try to recover the correct forcewake state based on
the refcount. There is a period of time where userspace reads/writes may
occur after the reset, before the GT has been forcewaked. The interface
was never designed to be a perfect solution for userspace reads/writes,
and the kernel portion is fixed by this patch.

Vasiliy Kulikov 1d1221f375 proc: restrict access to /proc/PID/io
/proc/PID/io may be used for gathering private information.  E.g.  for
openssh and vsftpd daemons wchars/rchars may be used to learn the
precise password length.  Restrict it to processes being able to ptrace
the target process.

ptrace_may_access() is needed to prevent keeping open file descriptor of
"io" file, executing setuid binary and gathering io information of the
setuid'ed process.

NeilBrown 4274215d24 md: avoid endless recovery loop when waiting for fail device to complete.
If a device fails in a way that causes pending request to take a while
to complete, md will not be able to immediately remove it from the
array in remove_and_add_spares.
It will then incorrectly look like a spare device and md will try to
recover it even though it is failed.
This leads to a recovery process starting and instantly aborting over
and over again.

We should check if the device is faulty before considering it to be a
spare.  This will avoid trying to start a recovery that cannot
proceed.

This bug was introduced in 2.6.26 so that patch is suitable for any
kernel since then.

Hugh Dickins ecbec53b1d drm/i915: more struct_mutex locking
When auditing the locking in i915_gem.c (for a prospective change which
I then abandoned), I noticed two places where struct_mutex is not held
across GEM object manipulations that would usually require it.

Since one is in initial setup and the other in driver unload, I'm
guessing the mutex is not required for either; but post a patch in case
it is.

Hugh Dickins e2377fe0b6 drm/i915: use shmem_truncate_range
The interface to ->truncate_range is changing very slightly: once "tmpfs:
take control of its truncate_range" has been applied, this can be applied.
 For now there is only a slight inefficiency while this remains unapplied,
but it will soon become essential for managing shmem's use of swap.

Change i915_gem_object_truncate() to use shmem_truncate_range() directly:
which should also spare i915 later change if we switch from
inode_operations->truncate_range to file_operations->fallocate.

Hugh Dickins 5949eac4d9 drm/i915: use shmem_read_mapping_page
Soon tmpfs will stop supporting ->readpage and read_cache_page_gfp(): once
"tmpfs: add shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp" has been applied, this patch can
be applied to ease the transition.

Make i915_gem_object_get_pages_gtt() use shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() in
the one place it's needed; elsewhere use shmem_read_mapping_page(), with
the mapping's gfp_mask properly initialized.

Forget about __GFP_COLD: since tmpfs initializes its pages with memset,
asking for a cold page is counter-productive.

Include linux/shmem_fs.h also in drm_gem.c: with shmem_file_setup() now
declared there too, we shall remove the prototype from linux/mm.h later.

ttm_tt_swapin() and ttm_tt_swapout() use shmem_read_mapping_page() in
place of read_mapping_page(), since their swap_space has been created with
shmem_file_setup().

Ralf Baechle 1fc6e987d8 drivers/misc/ioc4.c: fix section mismatch / race condition
Fix this section mismatch:

  WARNING: drivers/misc/ioc4.o(.data+0x144): Section mismatch in reference from the variable ioc4_load_modules_work to the function .devinit.text:ioc4_load_modules()
  The variable ioc4_load_modules_work references
  the function __devinit ioc4_load_modules()
  If the reference is valid then annotate the
  variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
  *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console

This one is potentially fatal; by the time ioc4_load_modules is invoked
it may already have been freed.  For that reason ioc4_load_modules_work
can't be turned to __devinitdata but also because it's referenced in
ioc4_exit.
