2013-02-28s390/uaccess: fix kernel ds access for page table walkHeiko Carstens1-28/+77
When the kernel resides in home space and the mvcos instruction is not available uaccesses for kernel ds happen via simple strnlen() or memcpy() calls. This however can break badly, since uaccesses in kernel space may fail as well, especially if CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is turned on. To fix this implement strnlen_kernel() and copy_in_kernel() functions which can only be used by the page table uaccess functions. These two functions detect invalid memory accesses and return the correct length of processed data.. Both functions are more or less a copy of the std variants without sacf calls. Fixes ipl crashes on 31 bit machines as well on 64 bit machines without mvcos. Caused by changing the default address space of the kernel being home space.

2013-02-28s390/uaccess: fix strncpy_from_user string length checkHeiko Carstens2-46/+34
The "standard" and page table walk variants of strncpy_from_user() first check the length of the to be copied string in userspace. The string is then copied to kernel space and the length returned to the caller. However userspace can modify the string at any time while the kernel checks for the length of the string or copies the string. In result the returned length of the string is not necessarily correct. Fix this by copying in a loop which mimics the mvcos variant of strncpy_from_user(), which handles this correctly.

2013-02-28s390/uaccess: fix strncpy_from_user/strnlen_user zero maxlen caseHeiko Carstens3-0/+8
If the maximum length specified for the to be accessed string for strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() is zero the following incorrect values would be returned or incorrect memory accesses would happen: strnlen_user_std() and strnlen_user_pt() incorrectly return "1" strncpy_from_user_pt() would incorrectly access "dst[maxlen - 1]" strncpy_from_user_mvcos() would incorrectly return "-EFAULT" Fix all these oddities by adding early checks.

2013-02-28s390/uaccess: shorten strncpy_from_user/strnlen_userHeiko Carstens1-12/+12
Always stay within page boundaries when copying from user within strlen_user_mvcos()/strncpy_from_user_mvcos(). This allows to shorten the code a bit and may prevent unnecessary faults, since we copy quite large amounts of memory to kernel space. Also directly call the mvcos variants of copy_from_user() to avoid indirect branches. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <[email protected]>

2013-02-28dmaengine: dw_dmac: move to generic DMA bindingArnd Bergmann4-116/+111
The original device tree binding for this driver, from Viresh Kumar unfortunately conflicted with the generic DMA binding, and did not allow to completely seperate slave device configuration from the controller. This is an attempt to replace it with an implementation of the generic binding, but it is currently completely untested, because I do not have any hardware with this particular controller. The patch applies on top of the slave-dma tree, which contains both the base support for the generic DMA binding, as well as the earlier attempt from Viresh. Both of these are currently not merged upstream however. This version incorporates feedback from Viresh Kumar, Andy Shevchenko and Russell King.

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin218-1494/+987
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [[email protected]: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [[email protected]: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [[email protected]: checkpatch fixes] [[email protected]: fix warnings] [[email protected]: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <[email protected]> Acked-by: Paul E.

2013-02-27kcmp: make it depend on CHECKPOINT_RESTORECyrill Gorcunov1-3/+1
Since kcmp syscall has been implemented (initially on x86 architecture) a number of other archs wire it up as well: xtensa, sparc, sh, s390, mips, microblaze, m68k (not taking into account those who uses <asm-generic/unistd.h> for syscall numbers definitions). But the Makefile, which turns kcmp.o generation on still depends on former config-x86. Thus get rid of this limitation and make kcmp.o depend on CHECKPOINT_RESTORE option.

2013-02-27nbd: update documentation and link to mailinglistWouter Verhelst2-34/+5
Documentation/blockdev/nbd.txt contained some documentation which was horribly outdated and probably still dates from the original patch that added NBD support to the kernel. This patch removes the useless and outdated bits. The tools on nbd.sf.net are fully documented in manpages, which is where documentation for the non-kernel bits should live. Additionally, add a reference to the MAINTAINERS file for the nbd-general mailinglist that is used for discussion of the userland tools and the kernel module already.
