cb8f51bdad PM: Do not create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake up
Currently, wakeup sysfs attributes are created for all devices,
regardless of whether or not they are wakeup-capable.  This is
excessive and complicates wakeup device identification from user
space (i.e. to identify wakeup-capable devices user space has to read
/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup for all devices and see if they are not
empty).

Fix this issue by avoiding to create wakeup sysfs files for devices
that cannot wake up the system from sleep states (i.e. whose
power.can_wakeup flags are unset during registration) and modify
device_set_wakeup_capable() so that it adds (or removes) the relevant
sysfs attributes if a device's wakeup capability status is changed.

a23c37f111 bonding: documentation update: mailing lists.
In commit a6c36ee677607b02d8ecc88e8a12785418b88107 ("bonding: change list
contact to netdev@vger.kernel.org"), the mailing list for bonding
developpement was changed from bonding-devel to netdev.

Update the bonding documentation to reflect this change:

- bonding-devel is used for usage discussions (despite the name).
- netdev is used for developpement discussions.

Also remove the reference to the sourceforge bonding page, which is
deprecated.

957c2ec558 cciss: export resettable host attribute
This attribute, requested by Redhat, allows kexec-tools to know
whether the controller can honor the reset_devices kernel parameter
and actually reset the controller.  For kdump to work properly it
is necessary that the reset_devices parameter be honored.  This
attribute enables kexec-tools to warn the user if they attempt to
designate a non-resettable controller as the dump device.

2bcf002159 UBIFS: do not check data crc by default
Change the default UBIFS behavior WRT data CRC checking. Currently,
UBIFS checks data CRC when reading, which slows it down quite a bit,
and this is the default option. However, it looks like in average
user does not need this feature and would prefer faster read speed
over extra reliability. And this seems to be de-facto standard that
file-systems do not check data CRC every time they read from the
media.

Thus, make UBIFS default behavior so that it does not check data
CRC. This corresponds to the no_chk_data_crc mount option. Those users
who need extra protection can always enable it using the chk_data_crc
option.

Please, read more information about this feature here:

This is now a run-time choice so that a single kernel can support both

This provides support for newer ISI modems with no need for the
earlier experimental compile-time alternative choice. With this,
we can now use the same kernel and userspace with both types of
modems.

This also avoids confusing two different and incompatible state
machines, actively connected vs accepted sockets, and adds
connection response error handling (processing "SYN/RST" of sorts).

acaf7df610 Phonet: provide pipe socket option to retrieve the pipe identifier
User-space sometimes needs this information. In particular, the GPRS
context or the AT commands pipe setups may use the pipe handle as a
reference.

This removes the settable pipe handle with CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR.
It did not handle error cases correctly. Furthermore, the kernel
*could* implement a smart scheme for allocating handles (if ever
needed), but userspace really cannot.

750912fa36 tracing: Add an 'overwrite' trace_option.
Add an "overwrite" trace_option for ftrace to control whether the buffer should
be overwritten on overflow or not. The default remains to overwrite old events
when the buffer is full. This patch adds the option to instead discard newest
events when the buffer is full. This is useful to get a snapshot of traces just
after enabling traces. Dropping the current event is also a simpler code path.

4a5838ad9d kbuild: Add extra gcc checks
Add a 'W=1' Makefile switch which adds additional checking per build
object.

The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the
process of writing their code, want to do the occasional

make W=1 [target.o]

and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they
could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various
bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build
process.

Add a new keyctl op to reject a key with a specified error code.  This works
much the same as negating a key, and so keyctl_negate_key() is made a special

selects ENOKEY as the error to be reported.

Typically the key would be rejected with EKEYEXPIRED, EKEYREVOKED or
EKEYREJECTED, but this is not mandatory.

the device in question, and
  /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../acpi_index which contains the firmware device type
instance for the given device.

1362fa078d DNS: Fix a NULL pointer deref when trying to read an error key [CVE-2011-1076]
When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].

Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.

Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.

The buggy code was added in:

	commit 4a2d789267e00b5a1175ecd2ddefcc78b83fbf09
	Author: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com>
	Date:   Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100
	Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]

This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:

	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <keyutils.h>
	#include <err.h>
	static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6";
	int main()
	{
		key_serial_t key;
		key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload),
			      KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING);
		if (key == -1)
			err(1, "add_key");
		if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1)
			err(1, "read_key");
		return 0;
	}

What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:

	dns-break: read_key: No such device or address

but instead the kernel oopses.

This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data.  Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.

The oops looks like:

0bbfeb8320 cfq-iosched: Always provide group isolation.
Effectively, make group_isolation=1 the default and remove the tunable.
The setting group_isolation=0 was because by default we idle on
sync-noidle tree and on fast devices, this can be very harmful for
throughput.

However, this problem can also be addressed by tuning slice_idle and
possibly group_idle on faster storage devices.

This change simplifies the CFQ code by removing the feature entirely.

8d32a307e4 genirq: Provide forced interrupt threading
Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except
those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to
allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If
"threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no
impact in the interrupt hotpath.

Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after
marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All
interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked
IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded.

Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt
handling into thread context.

When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in
interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately
crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

Some test results on a Core2Duo machine:

3bcbaf6e08 rtc: cmos: Add OF bindings
This allows to load the OF driver based informations from the device
tree. Systems without BIOS may need to perform some initialization.
PowerPC creates a PNP device from the OF information and performs this
kind of initialization in their private PCI quirk. This looks more
generic.

This patch also avoids registering the platform RTC driver on X86 if
we have a device tree blob. Otherwise we would setup the device based
on the hardcoded information in arch/x86 rather than the device tree
based one.

        Grant ]

df2634f43f x86: dtb: Add a device tree for CE4100
History:
v1..v2:
- dropped device_type except for cpu & pci. I have the compatible string
  for pci so I can drop the device_type once it is possible
- I lowercased all compatible types. I will need to resend some patches
  which have upper case intel
- The cpu had the same compatible string as the soc node. So I added to
  the soc node -immr for internel memory mapped registers.
- I added generic names for all parts.
- I reworked the i2c bars matching the way you suggested. I added a
  compatible node for the PCI device which only the PCI ids in its
  compatible string. The bars (each represents a complete i2c
  controller) have a "intel,ce4100-i2c-controller" compatible node. It
  is not used by the driver.
  The driver is probed via PCI ids (by the pci subsystem not OF) and
  matches the bar address against the ressource in the child node. Once
  there is a hit the node is attached.
- The SPI driver is also probed via pci. However I also attached a
  compatible property based on PCI ids

v2..v3:
- intel,ce4100-immr become intel,ce4100-cp. cp stands for core
  peripherals. The Atom data sheet talks here about ACPI devices. Since
  we don't have ACPI this does not apply here.
- The interrupt map is gone. There are now plenty of device nodes.
- The "unit address string" got fixed, it uses not DD,V format.

v3..v4:
- added descriptions for compatible nodes introduced here:
  - intel,ce4100-ioapic
  - intel,ce4100-lapic
  - intel,ce4100-hpet
  - intel,ce4100
  - intel,ce4100-cp
  - intel,ce4100-pci
- added a description about I2C controller magic.
- Added gpio-controller and gpio-cells property to gpio devices. Those
  properties are not (yet) used.
