1217650336 fs/compat_ioctl.c: VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE missing error check
The compat ioctl for VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE was missing an error check
while converting ioctl arguments.  This could lead to leaking kernel
stack contents into userspace.

Patch extracted from existing fix in grsecurity.

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

142e5460a6 compat_ioctl: Avoid using undefined RS-485 IOCTLs
Wrap the use of TIOCSRS485 and TIOCGRS485 in #ifdef so that we avoid
adding undefined IOCTLs to the ioctl pointer list as compatible
ioctls.

This change was motivated by a build error on a MIPS build.

caaa357dc0 Input: Add KD[GS]KBDIACRUC ioctls to the compatible list
Allow handling of Unicode compose sequences by 32-bit apps on a 64-bit
system.  The issue has been reported in <http://bugs.debian.org/540534>
and <http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/kbd/2009-December/000235.html>.

A formal check of the two affected ioctls in drivers/char/vt_ioctl.c
(introduced in 04c71976) and a test using x86 kbd 1.15.1 on a so patched
x86_64 kernel both confirm that KD[GS]KBDIACRUC are ioctl32()
compatible.

07d106d0a3 vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling
We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.

ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument").  It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").

That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad.  We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually.  In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.

390192b300 compat_ioctl: fix warning caused by qemu
On Linux x86_64 host with 32bit userspace, running
qemu or even just "qemu-img create -f qcow2 some.img 1G"
causes a kernel warning:

ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(00005326){t:'S';sz:0} arg(7fffffff) on some.img
ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(801c0204){t:02;sz:28} arg(fff77350) on some.img

ioctl 00005326 is CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS,
ioctl 801c0204 is FDGETPRM.

The warning appears because the Linux compat-ioctl handler for these
ioctls only applies to block devices, while qemu also uses the ioctls on
plain files.

c4a0472725 fix rawctl compat ioctls breakage on amd64 and itanic
RAW_SETBIND and RAW_GETBIND 32bit versions are fscked in interesting ways.

1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by
HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl).  The latter is ignored.

2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64
and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same.  raw_ioctl() would
work there, but it's never called due to (1).  As it is, i386 /sbin/raw
definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen.

3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64,
which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit.
The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT -
it eliminates *all* padding.  The real solution is to use compat_u64.

4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the
first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of
messing with compat_ioctl.c.

2116b7a473 smbfs: move to drivers/staging
smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.

26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The cmd 5600 is VT_OPENQRY.  The busybox's init issues this ioctl to
know vt-console or serial-console.  If the console was serial console,
VT ioctls are not handled by the serial driver.

And by quick search, I found some programs using VT_GETMODE to check
vt-console is available or not.

661f627da9 compat_ioctl: simplify lookup table
The compat_ioctl table now only contains entries for
COMPATIBLE_IOCTL, so we only need to know if a number
is listed in it or now.

As an optimization, we hash the table entries with a
reversible transformation to get a more uniform distribution
over it, sort the table at startup and then guess the
position in the table when an ioctl number gets called
to do a linear search from there.

With the current set of ioctl numbers and the chosen
transformation function, we need an average of four
steps to find if a number is in the set, all of the
accesses within one or two cache lines.

This at least as good as the previous hash table
approach but saves 8.5 kb of kernel memory.

We have always called ioctl conversion handlers under the big kernel lock,
although that is generally not necessary.  In particular it is not needed
for conversion of data structures and for calling sys_ioctl or
do_vfs_ioctl, which will get the BKL again if needed.

Handlers doing more than those two have been moved out, so we can kill off
the BKL from compat_sys_ioctl.  This may significantly improve latencies
with 32 bit applications, and it avoids a common scenario where a thread
acquires the BKL twice.

fb07a5f857 compat_ioctl: remove all VT ioctl handling
The VT driver now handles all of these ioctls directly, so we can remove
the handlers from common code.

These are the only handlers that require the BKL because they directly
perform the ioctl action rather than just converting the data structures.
Once they are gone, we can remove the BKL from the remaining ioctl
conversion handlers.
