__scsi_remove_device() in scsi_forget_host() is executed out of scan_mutex
and races with scsi_destroy_sdev() <- scsi_sysfs_add_devices() <-
scsi_finish_async_scan(). The result is use after free and/or double
free, oops.
The fix is simple, move scsi_forget_host() under scan_mutex.
scsi_forget_host() is just sequence of __scsi_remove_device(). All
another calls of __scsi_remove_device() are made under scan_mutex. So
that it is safe.

Async scanning introduced a very wide window where the SCSI device is
up and running but has not yet been added to sysfs. We delay the
adding until all scans have completed to retain the same ordering as
sync scanning.
This delay in visibility causes an oops if a device is removed before
we make it visible because the SCSI removal routines have an inbuilt
assumption that if a device is in SDEV_RUNNING state, it must be
visible (which is not necessarily true in the async scanning case).
Fix this by introducing an additional is_visible flag which we can use
to condition the tear down so we do the right thing for running but
not yet made visible.

Writes may take some time on EEPROMs, so for consecutive writes, we already
have a loop waiting for the EEPROM to become ready. Use such a loop for reads,
too, in case somebody wants to immediately read after a write. Detailed bug

Fix userspace_device list corruption. The corruption was caused by
clients not being removed when adapters with such clients were
themselves removed. Something like the following would trigger it
(assuming i2c-stub gets adapter number 3):
# modprobe i2c-stub chip_addr=0x50
# echo 24c08 0x50 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-3/new_device
# rmmod i2c-stub
# modprobe i2c-stub chip_addr=0x50
# echo 24c08 0x50 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-3/new_device

of UDMA6
Currently, ide_cmd_ioctl when invoked for setting DMA transfer mode calls
ide_find_dma_mode with requested mode as XFER_UDMA_6. This prevents setting DMA
mode to any other value than the default (maximum) supported by the device (or
UDMA6, if supported) irrespective of the actual requested transfer mode and
returns error.
For example, setting mode to UDMA2 using hdparm, where UDMA4 is the default
transfer mode gives following error:
# ./hdparm -d1 -Xudma2 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:hda: UDMA/66 mode selected
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
hda: UDMA/66 mode selected
setting xfermode to 66 (UltraDMA mode2)
HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Invalid argument

The current syscall tracer mixes raw syscalls and real syscalls.
echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable
And we get these from the output:
(XXXX insteads " grep-20914 [001] 588211.446347" .. etc)
XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 80609a8, count: 7000)
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 80609a8, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312
XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 8060ae0, count: 7000)
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 8060ae0, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312
There are 2 drawbacks here.
A) two almost identical records are saved in ringbuffer
when a syscall enters or exits. (4 records for every syscall)
This wastes precious space in the ring buffer.
B) the lines including "sys_enter/sys_exit" produces
hardly any useful information for the output (no labels).
The user can use this method to prevent these drawbacks:
echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable
echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_enter/enable
echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_exit/enable
But this is not user friendly. So we separate raw syscall
from syscall tracer.
After this fix applied:
syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable):
XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: bfe87d88, count: 200)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x200
XXXX: sys_fstat64(fd: 3, statbuf: bfe87c98)
XXXX: sys_fstat64 -> 0x0
XXXX: sys_close(fd: 3)
raw syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/raw_syscalls/enable):
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (0, bf92bf18, bf92bf98, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8)
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0

XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0

Running the ring-buffer-benchmark's threads at the lowest priority may
work well for keeping it in the background, but it is not appropriate
for the benchmarks.
This patch adds 4 parameters to the module:
consumer_fifo
consumer_nice
producer_fifo
producer_nice
By default the consumer and producer still run at nice +19.
If the *_fifo options are set, they will override the *_nice values.
modprobe ring_buffer_benchmark consumer_nice=0 producer_fifo=10
The above will set the consumer thread to a nice value of 0, and
the producer thread to a RT SCHED_FIFO priority of 10.
Note, this patch also fixes a bug where calling set_user_nice on the
consumer thread would oops the kernel when the parameter "disable_reader"
is set.

There is a problem in the quirk tables used by tpacpi_is_fw_known() and
tpacpi_check_outdated_fw(), which causes outdated BIOSes that are lacking
the EC firmware ID DMI field to never match.
This breaks module loading on, e.g. a T23 with outdated BIOS, and the
module will refuse to load unless the "force_load=1" parameter is given.
Fix the quirk tables so that they can also match the outdated BIOSes,
which in turn will both fix the module loading, and also warn the user
that he is using outdated firmware and should upgrade.
This fixes a serious regression, introduced by commit
e675abafcc0df38125e6e94a9ba91c92fe774f52, "thinkpad-acpi: be more strict
when detecting a ThinkPad".

SMB writes are sent with a starting offset and length. When the server
supports the newer SMB trans2 posix open (rather than using the SMB
NTCreateX) a file can be opened with SMB_O_APPEND flag, and for that
case Samba server assumes that the offset sent in SMBWriteX is unneeded
since the write should go to the end of the file - which can cause
problems if the write was cached (since the beginning part of a
page could be written twice by the client mm). Jeff suggested that
masking the flag on posix open on the client is easiest for the time
being. Note that recent Samba server also had an unrelated problem with
SMB NTCreateX and append (see samba bugzilla bug number 6898) which
should not affect current Linux clients (unless cifs Unix Extensions
are disabled).
The cifs client did not send the O_APPEND flag on posix open
before 2.6.29 so the fix is unneeded on early kernels.
In the future, for the non-cached case (O_DIRECT, and forcedirectio mounts)
it would be possible and useful to send O_APPEND on posix open (for Windows
case: FILE_APPEND_DATA but not FILE_WRITE_DATA on SMB NTCreateX) but for
cached writes although the vfs sets the offset to end of file it
may fragment a write across pages - so we can't send O_APPEND on
open (could result in sending part of a page twice).

In commit 0de51088e6a82bc8413d3ca9e28bbca2788b5b53, we introduced the
use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for
VENDOR_INTEL. However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also
need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to
activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq.
Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for
Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's. The resulting behavior
of a current mainline kernel on such systems is: acpi-cpufreq
loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes. However, the CPU stays at
a single frequency
This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and
VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

As far as I know, all distros currently ship kernels with default
CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y. Since having the option on
leaves a 'no_file_caps' option to boot without file capabilities,
the main reason to keep the option is that turning it off saves
you (on my s390x partition) 5k. In particular, vmlinux sizes
came to:
without patch fscaps=n: 53598392
without patch fscaps=y: 53603406
with this patch applied: 53603342
with the security-next tree.
Against this we must weigh the fact that there is no simple way for
userspace to figure out whether file capabilities are supported,
while things like per-process securebits, capability bounding
sets, and adding bits to pI if CAP_SETPCAP is in pE are not supported
with SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=n, leaving a bit of a problem for
applications wanting to know whether they can use them and/or why
something failed.
It also adds another subtly different set of semantics which we must
maintain at the risk of severe security regressions.
So this patch removes the SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile
option. It drops the kernel size by about 50k over the stock
SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y kernel, by removing the
cap_limit_ptraced_target() function.

Historically we've seen cases where permissions are requested for classes
where they do not exist. In particular we have seen CIFS forget to set
i_mode to indicate it is a directory so when we later check something like
remove_name we have problems since it wasn't defined in tclass file. This
used to result in a avc which included the permission 0x2000 or something.
Currently the kernel will deny the operations (good thing) but will not
print ANY information (bad thing). First the auditdeny field is no
extended to include unknown permissions. After that is fixed the logic in
avc_dump_query to output this information isn't right since it will remove
the permission from the av and print the phrase "<NULL>". This takes us
back to the behavior before the classmap rewrite.

Some architectures compute ->vm_page_prot depending on ->vm_flags, so we
need to update the protections after adjusting the flags.
AFAIK this only affects running X under Xen; without this patch you get
lots of coloured blobs on the screen, or maybe a complete lockup. Or
anything really.
But that still depends on lots of out-of-tree stuff, so I don't think
there are any consequences for anyone else. But it is wrong in principle.
