2010-08-02V4L/DVB: Add FE_CAN_TURBO_FECKlaus Schmidinger
Some (North American) providers use a non-standard mode called "8psk turbo fec". Since there is no flag in the driver that would allow an application to determine whether a particular device can handle "turbo fec", the attached patch introduces FE_CAN_TURBO_FEC. Since there is no flag in the SI data that would indicate that a transponder uses "turbo fec", VDR will assume that all 8psk transponders on DVB-S use "turbo fec".

2010-08-02mtd: nand: more BB Detection refactoring and dynamic scan optionsBrian Norris
This is a revision to PATCH 2/2 that I sent. Link: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2010-July/030911.html Added new flag for scanning of both bytes 1 and 6 of the OOB for a BB marker (instead of simply one or the other). The "check_pattern" and "check_short_pattern" functions were updated to include support for scanning the two different locations in the OOB. In order to handle increases in variety of necessary scanning patterns, I implemented dynamic memory allocation of nand_bbt_descr structs in new function 'nand_create_default_bbt_descr()'. This replaces some increasingly-unwieldy, statically-declared descriptors. It can replace several more (e.g. "flashbased" structs). However, I do not test the flashbased options personally. How this was tested: I referenced 30+ data sheets (covering 100+ parts), and I tested a selection of 10 different chips to varying degrees. Particularly, I tested the creation of bad-block descriptors and basic BB scanning on three parts: ST NAND04GW3B2D, 2K page ST NAND128W3A, 512B page Samsung K9F1G08U0A, 2K page To test these, I wrote some fake bad block markers to the flash (in OOB bytes 1, 6, and elsewhere) to see if the scanning routine would detect them properly. However, this method was somewhat limited because the driver I am using has some bugs in its OOB write functionality.

2010-08-02mtd: nand: edit macro flag for BBT scan of last page in blockBrian Norris
NAND_BB_LAST_PAGE used to be in nand.h, but it pertained to bad block management and so belongs next to NAND_BBT_SCAN2NDPAGE in bbm.h. Also, its previous flag value (0x00000400) conflicted with NAND_BBT_SCANALLPAGES so I changed its value to 0x00008000. All uses of the name were modified to provide consistency with other "NAND_BBT_*" flags.

2010-08-02SELinux: special dontaudit for access checksEric Paris
Currently there are a number of applications (nautilus being the main one) which calls access() on files in order to determine how they should be displayed. It is normal and expected that nautilus will want to see if files are executable or if they are really read/write-able. access() should return the real permission. SELinux policy checks are done in access() and can result in lots of AVC denials as policy denies RWX on files which DAC allows. Currently SELinux must dontaudit actual attempts to read/write/execute a file in order to silence these messages (and not flood the logs.) But dontaudit rules like that can hide real attacks. This patch addes a new common file permission audit_access. This permission is special in that it is meaningless and should never show up in an allow rule. Instead the only place this permission has meaning is in a dontaudit rule like so: dontaudit nautilus_t sbin_t:file audit_access With such a rule if nautilus just checks access() we will still get denied and thus userspace will still get the correct answer but we will not log the denial. If nautilus attempted to actually perform one of the forbidden actions (rather than just querying access(2) about it) we would still log a denial. This type of dontaudit rule should be used sparingly, as it could be a method for an attacker to probe the system permissions without detection.

2010-08-02vfs: re-introduce MAY_CHDIREric Paris
Currently MAY_ACCESS means that filesystems must check the permissions right then and not rely on cached results or the results of future operations on the object. This can be because of a call to sys_access() or because of a call to chdir() which needs to check search without relying on any future operations inside that dir. I plan to use MAY_ACCESS for other purposes in the security system, so I split the MAY_ACCESS and the MAY_CHDIR cases. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Acked-by: Stephen D.

2010-08-01KVM: Avoid killing userspace through guest SRAO MCE on unmapped pagesHuang Ying
In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay the MCE to guest OS. But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will be killed. The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped, guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace is killed by force_sig_info. To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned page.

2010-07-31ARM: AMBA: Add pclk support to AMBA bus infrastructureRussell King
Some platforms gate the pclk (APB - the bus - clock) to the peripherals for power saving, along with the functional clock. When devices are accessed without pclk enabled, the kernel will oops. This gives them two options: 1. Leave all clocks on all the time. 2. Attempt to gate pclk along with the functional clock. (With some hardware, pclk and the functional clock are gated by a single bit in a register.) (1) has the disadvantage that it causes increased power usage, which is bad news for battery operated devices. (2) can lead to kernel oops if registers are accessed without the functional clock being enabled. So, introduce the apb_pclk signal in such a way existing drivers don't need to be updated. Essentially, this means we guarantee that: 1. pclk will be enabled whenever the driver is bound to a device - from probe() to remove() time. 2. pclk will also be enabled when reading the primecell IDs from the device. In order to allow drivers to be incrementally updated to achieve greater power savings, we provide two additional calls to allow drivers to manage the pclk - amba_pclk_enable()/amba_pclk_disable().

2010-07-31padata: Remove padata_get_cpumaskSteffen Klassert
A function that copies the padata cpumasks to a user buffer is a bit error prone. The cpumask can change any time so we can't be sure to have the right cpumask when using this function. A user who is interested in the padata cpumasks should register to the padata cpumask notifier chain instead. Users of padata_get_cpumask are already updated, so we can remove it.
