0a969e928c Input: evdev - Add ioctl to block suspend while event queue is not empty.
Add an ioctl, EVIOCSSUSPENDBLOCK, to enable a wakelock that will block
suspend while the event queue is not empty. This allows userspace code to
process input events while the device appears to be asleep.

The current code holds the wakelock for up 5 seconds for every input
device and client. This can prevent suspend if sensor with a high data
rate is active, even when that sensor is not capable of waking the
device once it is suspended.

bebadf46e9 cgroup: Add generic cgroup subsystem permission checks
Rather than using explicit euid == 0 checks when trying to move
tasks into a cgroup via CFS, move permission checks into each
specific cgroup subsystem. If a subsystem does not specify a
'allow_attach' handler, then we fall back to doing our checks
the old way.

Use the 'allow_attach' handler for the 'cpu' cgroup to allow
non-root processes to add arbitrary processes to a 'cpu' cgroup
if it has the CAP_SYS_NICE capability set.

This version of the patch adds a 'allow_attach' handler instead
of reusing the 'can_attach' handler.  If the 'can_attach' handler
is reused, a new cgroup that implements 'can_attach' but not
the permission checks could end up with no permission checks
at all.

b4ef696dc1 ARM: allow the kernel text section to be made read-only
This patch implements CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, allowing
the kernel text section to be marked read-only in
order to catch bugs that write over the kernel.  This
requires mapping the kernel code, plus up to 4MB, using
pages instead of sections, which can increase TLB
pressure.

The kernel is normally mapped using 1MB section entries
in the first level page table, and the first level page
table is copied into every mm.  This prevents marking
the kernel text read-only, because the 1MB section
entries are too large granularity to separate the init
section, which is reused as read-write memory after
init, and the kernel text section.  Also, the top level
page table for every process would need to be updated,
which is not possible to do safely and efficiently on SMP.

To solve both problems, allow alloc_init_pte to overwrite
an existing section entry with a fully-populated second
level page table.  When CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, all
the section entries that overlap the kernel text section
will be replaced with page mappings.  The kernel always
uses a pair of 2MB-aligned 1MB sections, so up to 2MB
of memory before and after the kernel may end up page
mapped.

When the top level page tables are copied into each
process the second level page tables are not copied,
leaving a single second level page table that will
affect all processes on all cpus.  To mark a page
read-only, the second level page table is located using
the pointer in the first level page table for the
current process, and the supervisor RO bit is flipped
atomically.  Once all pages have been updated, all TLBs
are flushed to ensure the changes are visible on all
cpus.

If CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set, the kernel will be
mapped using the normal 1MB section entries.

get_loadavg doesn't work as intended.  According to the comments, it

even when the average cpu load is under 10%.  Disable it for now.

7846de406f powerpc/pci: Improve device hotplug initialization
Commit 37f02195b (powerpc/pci: fix PCI-e devices rescan issue on powerpc
platform) fixes a problem with interrupt and DMA initialization on hot
plugged devices. With this commit, interrupt and DMA initialization for
hot plugged devices is handled in the pci device enable function.

This approach has a couple of drawbacks. First, it creates two code paths
for device initialization, one for hot plugged devices and another for devices
known during the initial PCI scan. Second, the initialization code for hot
plugged devices is only called when the device is enabled, ie typically
in the probe function. Also, the platform specific setup code is called each
time pci_enable_device() is called, not only once during device discovery,
meaning it is actually called multiple times, once for devices discovered
during the initial scan and again each time a driver is re-loaded.

The visible result is that interrupt pins are only assigned to hot plugged
devices when the device driver is loaded. Effectively this changes the PCI
probe API, since pci_dev->irq and the device's dma configuration will now
only be valid after pci_enable() was called at least once. A more subtle
change is that platform specific PCI device setup is moved from device
discovery into the driver's probe function, more specifically into the
pci_enable_device() call.

To fix the inconsistencies, add new function pcibios_add_device.
Call pcibios_setup_device from pcibios_setup_bus_devices if device setup
is not complete, and from pcibios_add_device if bus setup is complete.

With this change, device setup code is moved back into device initialization,
and called exactly once for both static and hot plugged devices.

[ This also fixes a regression introduced by the above patch which
  causes dev->irq to be overwritten under some cirumstances after
  MSIs have been enabled for the device which leads to crashes due
  to the MSI core "hijacking" dev->irq to store the base MSI number
  and not the LSI. --BenH

 "The first fixes a problem with passing arrays rather than pointers to
  get_user() where __typeof__ then wants to declare and initialise an
  array variable which gcc doesn't like.

  The second fixes a problem whereby putting mem=xxx into the kernel
  command line causes init=xxx to get an incorrect value."

605c912bb8 UBIFS: fix a horrid bug
Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.

This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses
it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage,
but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an
security holes.

This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which
'->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in
'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a
seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'.

I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and
seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but
could not crash it with these patches.

33f1a63ae8 UBIFS: prepare to fix a horrid bug
Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.

First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while
'ubifs_readdir()' uses it.  But this particular patch does not fix the problem.
This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next.

In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly,
because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may
lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names
may correspond to incorrect file positions.

So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very
the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when
'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of
'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

e3f12a5304 mn10300: Use early_param() to parse "mem=" parameter
This fixes the problem that "init=" options may not be passed to kernel
correctly.

parse_mem_cmdline() of mn10300 arch gets rid of "mem=" string from
redboot_command_line. Then init_setup() parses the "init=" options from
static_command_line, which is a copy of redboot_command_line, and keeps
the pointer to the init options in execute_command variable.

Since the commit 026cee0 upstream (params: <level>_initcall-like kernel
parameters), static_command_line becomes overwritten by saved_command_line at
do_initcall_level(). Notice that saved_command_line is a command line
which includes "mem=" string.

As a result, execute_command may point to weird string by the length of
"mem=" parameter.
I noticed this problem when using the command line like this:

    mem=128M console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh

Here is the processing flow of command line parameters.
    start_kernel()
      setup_arch(&command_line)
         parse_mem_cmdline(cmdline_p)
           * strcpy(boot_command_line, redboot_command_line);
           * Remove "mem=xxx" from redboot_command_line.
           * *cmdline_p = redboot_command_line;
      setup_command_line(command_line) <-- command_line is redboot_command_line
        * strcpy(saved_command_line, boot_command_line)
        * strcpy(static_command_line, command_line)
      parse_early_param()
        strlcpy(tmp_cmdline, boot_command_line, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
        parse_early_options(tmp_cmdline);
          parse_args("early options", cmdline, NULL, 0, 0, 0, do_early_param);
      parse_args("Booting ..", static_command_line, ...);
        init_setup() <-- save the pointer in execute_command
      rest_init()
        kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND);

At this point, execute_command points to "/bin/sh" string.

    kernel_init()
      kernel_init_freeable()
        do_basic_setup()
          do_initcalls()
            do_initcall_level()
              (*) strcpy(static_command_line, saved_command_line);

Here, execute_command gets to point to "200" string !!

1abd601864 powerpc/eeh: Add eeh_dev to the cache during boot
commit f8f7d63fd9 ("powerpc/eeh: Trace eeh
device from I/O cache") broke EEH on pseries for devices that were
present during boot and have not been hotplugged/DLPARed.

eeh_check_failure will get the eeh_dev from the cache, and will get
NULL. eeh_addr_cache_build adds the addresses to the cache, but eeh_dev
for the giving pci_device is not set yet. Just reordering the call to
eeh_addr_cache_insert_dev works fine. The ordering is similar to the one
in eeh_add_device_late.
