2012-05-15sparc32: Kill off software 32-bit multiply/divide routines.David S. Miller
For the explicit calls to .udiv/.umul in assembler, I made a mechanical (read as: safe) transformation. I didn't attempt to make any simplifications. In particular, __ndelay and __udelay can be simplified significantly. Some of the %y reads are unnecessary and these routines have no need any longer for allocating a register window, they can be leaf functions. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-05-15net: Add net_ratelimited_function and net_<level>_ratelimited macrosJoe Perches
__ratelimit() can be considered an inverted bool test because it returns true when not ratelimited. Several tests in the kernel tree use this __ratelimit() function incorrectly. No net_ratelimit uses are incorrect currently though. Most uses of net_ratelimit are to log something via printk or pr_<level>. In order to minimize the uses of net_ratelimit, and to start standardizing the code style used for __ratelimit() and net_ratelimit(), add a net_ratelimited_function() macro and net_<level>_ratelimited() logging macros similar to pr_<level>_ratelimited that use the global net_ratelimit instead of a static per call site "struct ratelimit_state".

2012-05-15usbnet: fix skb traversing races during unlink(v2)Ming Lei
Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may cause skb traversing races: - after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released, the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue, even be released - in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained by next pointer of the last skb - so maybe trigger oops or other problems This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink' state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs. The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch: always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.

2012-05-15C6X: add support to build with BINFMT_ELF_FDPICMark Salter
C6x userspace supports a shared library mechanism called DSBT for systems with no MMU. DSBT is similar to FDPIC in allowing shared text segments and private copies of data segments without an MMU. Both methods access data using a base register and offset. With FDPIC, the caller of an external function sets up the base register for the callee. With DSBT, the called function sets up its own base register. Other details differ but both userspaces need the same thing from the kernel loader: a map of where each ELF segment was loaded. The FDPIC loader already provides this, so DSBT just uses it. This patch enables BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC by default for C6X and provides the necessary architecture hooks for the generic loader.

2012-05-15ALSA: hda/idt - Fix power-map for speaker-pins with some HP laptopsTakashi Iwai
BIOS on some HP laptops don't set the speaker-pins as fixed but expose as jacks, and this confuses the driver as if these pins are jack-detectable. As a result, the machine doesn't get sounds from speakers because the driver prepares the power-map update via jack unsol events which never come up in reality. The bug was introduced in some time in 3.2 for enabling the power-mapping feature. This patch fixes the problem by replacing the check of the persistent power-map bits with a proper is_jack_detectable() call.

2012-05-14Smack: allow for significantly longer Smack labels v4Casey Schaufler
V4 updated to current linux-security#next Targeted for git://gitorious.org/smack-next/kernel.git Modern application runtime environments like to use naming schemes that are structured and generated without human intervention. Even though the Smack limit of 23 characters for a label name is perfectly rational for human use there have been complaints that the limit is a problem in environments where names are composed from a set or sources, including vendor, author, distribution channel and application name. Names like softwarehouse-pgwodehouse-coolappstore-mellowmuskrats are becoming harder to avoid. This patch introduces long label support in Smack. Labels are now limited to 255 characters instead of the old 23. The primary reason for limiting the labels to 23 characters was so they could be directly contained in CIPSO category sets. This is still done were possible, but for labels that are too large a mapping is required. This is perfectly safe for communication that stays "on the box" and doesn't require much coordination between boxes beyond what would have been required to keep label names consistent. The bulk of this patch is in smackfs, adding and updating administrative interfaces. Because existing APIs can't be changed new ones that do much the same things as old ones have been introduced. The Smack specific CIPSO data representation has been removed and replaced with the data format used by netlabel. The CIPSO header is now computed when a label is imported rather than on use. This results in improved IP performance. The smack label is now allocated separately from the containing structure, allowing for larger strings. Four new /smack interfaces have been introduced as four of the old interfaces strictly required labels be specified in fixed length arrays. The access interface is supplemented with the check interface: access "Subject Object rwxat" access2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The load interface is supplemented with the rules interface: load "Subject Object rwxat" load2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The load-self interface is supplemented with the self-rules interface: load-self "Subject Object rwxat" load-self2 "Subject Object rwaxt" The cipso interface is supplemented with the wire interface: cipso "Subject lvl cnt c1 c2 ..." cipso2 "Subject lvl cnt c1 c2 ..." The old interfaces are maintained for compatibility. Signed-off-by: Casey Schaufler <casey@schaufler-ca.com>
