2009-09-03ALSA: dummy - Better jiffies handlingTakashi Iwai
In the system-timer mode, snd-dummy driver issues each tick to update the position. This is highly inefficient and even inaccurate if the timer can't be triggered at each tick. Now rewritten to wake up only at the period boundary. The position is calculated from the current jiffies. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2009-09-03ALSA: dummy - Support high-res timer modeTakashi Iwai
Allow snd-dummy driver to use high-res timer as its timing source instead of the system timer. The new module option "hrtimer" is added to turn on/off the high-res timer support. It can be switched even dynamically via sysfs. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2009-09-03mtd: nftl: fix offset alignmentsDimitri Gorokhovik
Arithmetic conversion in the mask computation makes the upper word of the second argument passed down to mtd->read_oob(), be always 0 (assuming 'offs' being a 64-bit signed long long type, and 'mtd->writesize' being a 32-bit unsigned int type). This patch applies over the other one adding masking in nftl_write, "nftl: write support is broken".

2009-09-03sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds.David S. Miller
This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present. This happens when, for example: CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to load the firmware, then waiting for completion. CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts. CPU 1 is where the NMI watchdog triggers. CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU 1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending. This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds. The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the barrage of device interrupts begin. Then we have: timer interrupt return for softirq checking pending, thus enable interrupts qla2xxx interrupt return qla2xxx interrupt return ... 5+ seconds pass final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load return run timer softirq return At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler. The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer interrupts. However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged. But in the above scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last all the way back to running the timer softirq. The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds). So increase it to 30 seconds for now. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-09-02KEYS: Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring on its parent [try #6]David Howells
Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring onto its parent. This replaces the parent's session keyring. Because the COW credential code does not permit one process to change another process's credentials directly, the change is deferred until userspace next starts executing again. Normally this will be after a wait*() syscall. To support this, three new security hooks have been provided: cred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in the blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if the process may replace its parent's session keyring. The replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details as its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and the session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it. Note that this requires alteration to each architecture's notify_resume path. This has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of which need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. This allows the replacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace execution. This allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and the VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to alter the parent process's PAG membership. However, since kAFS doesn't use PAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session keyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed the newpag flag. This can be tested with the following program: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> #define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT 18 #define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) == -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0) int main(int argc, char **argv) { key_serial_t keyring, key; long ret; keyring = keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]); OSERROR(keyring, "keyctl_join_session_keyring"); key = add_key("user", "a", "b", 1, keyring); OSERROR(key, "add_key"); ret = keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT); OSERROR(ret, "KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT"); return 0; } Compiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like: [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 355907932 --alswrv 4043 -1 \_ keyring: _uid.4043 [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses 1055658746 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello [dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show Session Keyring -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: hello 340417692 --alswrv 4043 4043 \_ user: a Where the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named 'a' into it and then installs it on its parent.

2009-09-02KEYS: Extend TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to (almost) all architectures [try #6]David Howells
Implement TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME for most of those architectures in which isn't yet available, and, whilst we're at it, have it call the appropriate tracehook. After this patch, blackfin, m68k* and xtensa still lack support and need alteration of assembly code to make it work. Resume notification can then be used (by a later patch) to install a new session keyring on the parent of a process.

2009-09-02KEYS: Add garbage collection for dead, revoked and expired keys. [try #6]David Howells
Add garbage collection for dead, revoked and expired keys. This involved erasing all links to such keys from keyrings that point to them. At that point, the key will be deleted in the normal manner. Keyrings from which garbage collection occurs are shrunk and their quota consumption reduced as appropriate. Dead keys (for which the key type has been removed) will be garbage collected immediately. Revoked and expired keys will hang around for a number of seconds, as set in /proc/sys/kernel/keys/gc_delay before being automatically removed. The default is 5 minutes.

2009-09-02KEYS: Flag dead keys to induce EKEYREVOKED [try #6]David Howells

It does not, however, prevent unlinking or clearing of keyrings from detaching the key.

2009-09-02CRED: Add some configurable debugging [try #6]David Howells
Add a config option (CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS) to turn on some debug checking for credential management. The additional code keeps track of the number of pointers from task_structs to any given cred struct, and checks to see that this number never exceeds the usage count of the cred struct (which includes all references, not just those from task_structs). Furthermore, if SELinux is enabled, the code also checks that the security pointer in the cred struct is never seen to be invalid. This attempts to catch the bug whereby inode_has_perm() faults in an nfsd kernel thread on seeing cred->security be a NULL pointer (it appears that the credential struct has been previously released): http://www.kerneloops.org/oops.php?number=252883 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

For counting how long an application has been waiting for (disk) IO, there currently is only the HZ sample driven information available, while for all other counters in this class, a high resolution version is available via CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS. In order to make an improved bootchart tool possible, we also need a higher resolution version of the iowait time. This patch below adds this scheduler statistic to the kernel.

2009-09-01x86: Move kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable in asm/i387.hHuang Ying
This function measures whether the FPU/SSE state can be touched in interrupt context. If the interrupted code is in user space or has no valid FPU/SSE context (CR0.TS == 1), FPU/SSE state can be used in IRQ or soft_irq context too. This is used by AES-NI accelerated AES implementation and PCLMULQDQ accelerated GHASH implementation. v3: - Renamed to irq_fpu_usable to reflect the purpose of the function. v2: - Renamed to irq_is_fpu_using to reflect the real situation.
