6befe5f69b init/Kconfig: fix EXPERT menu list
The EXPERT menu list was recently broken by the insertion of a
kconfig symbol (EMBEDDED) at the beginning of the EXPERT list of
kconfig items.  Broken by:

  Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>
  Date:   Thu Jan 20 14:44:16 2011 -0800
    kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT

Restore the EXPERT menu list -- don't inject a symbol (EMBEDDED)
that does not depend on EXPERT into the list.

ec75a71634 perf events, x86: Work around the Nehalem AAJ80 erratum
On Nehalem CPUs the retired branch-misses event can be completely bogus,
when there are no branch-misses occuring. When there are a lot of branch
misses then the count is pretty accurate. Still, this leaves us with an
event that over-counts a lot.

Detect this erratum and work it around by using BR_MISP_EXEC.ANY events.
These will also count speculated branches but still it's a lot more
precise in practice than the architectural event.

3f126087ee OMAP3+: voltage: remove initial voltage
Blindly setting 1.2V in the initial structure may not even match the
default voltages stored in the voltage table which are supported for
the domain. For example, OMAP3430 core domain does not use 1.2V and
ends up generating a warning on the first transition.

Further, since omap2_set_init_voltage is called as part of the pm
framework's initialization sequence to configure the voltage required
for the current OPP, the call does(and has to) setup the system
voltage(curr_volt as a result) using the right mechanisms appropriate
for the system at that point of time. This also overrides
initialization we are currently doing in voltage.c making it
redundant. So, remove the wrong and redundant initialization.

7bed50c5ed ACPI / PM: Avoid infinite recurrence while registering power resources
There is at least one BIOS with a DSDT containing a power resource
object with a _PR0 entry pointing back to that power resource.  In
consequence, while registering that power resource
acpi_bus_get_power_flags() sees that it depends on itself and tries
to register it again, which leads to an infinitely deep recurrence.
This problem was introduced by commit bf325f9538
(ACPI / PM: Register power resource devices as soon as they are
needed).

To fix this problem use the observation that power resources cannot
be power manageable and prevent acpi_bus_get_power_flags() from
being called for power resource objects.

22110faf8c PM / Wakeup: Fix initialization of wakeup-related device sysfs files
It turns out that some PCI devices are only found to be
wakeup-capable during registration, in which case, when
device_set_wakeup_capable() is called, device_is_registered() already
returns 'true' for the given device, but dpm_sysfs_add() hasn't been
called for it yet.  This leads to situations in which the device's
power.can_wakeup flag is not set as requested because of failing
wakeup_sysfs_add() and its wakeup-related sysfs files are not
created, although they should be present.  This is a post-2.6.38
regression introduced by commit cb8f51bdad
(PM: Do not create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake
up).

To work around this problem initialize the device's power.entry
field to an empty list head and make device_set_wakeup_capable()
check if it is still empty before attempting to add the devices
wakeup-related sysfs files with wakeup_sysfs_add().  Namely, if
power.entry is still empty at this point, device_pm_add() hasn't been
called yet for the device and its wakeup-related files will be
created later, so device_set_wakeup_capable() doesn't have to create
them.

9ade0cf440 SELINUX: Make selinux cache VFS RCU walks safe
Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the
dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more
RCU friendly.  The SELinux AVC and security server access decision
code is RCU safe.  A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not
be RCU safe.

This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU
safe chunk of code.  It will normally just work under RCU.  This is
done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the
avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

5be79de2e1 eCryptfs: Flush dirty pages in setattr
After 57db4e8d73 changed eCryptfs to
write-back caching, eCryptfs page writeback updates the lower inode
times due to the use of vfs_write() on the lower file.

To preserve inode metadata changes, such as 'cp -p' does with
utimensat(), we need to flush all dirty pages early in
ecryptfs_setattr() so that the user-updated lower inode metadata isn't
clobbered later in writeback.

3aeb86ea4c eCryptfs: Handle failed metadata read in lookup
When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup,
eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there
may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to
delete through the eCryptfs mount.

If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the
eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the
plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or
setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this
adds minimal performance overhead.

This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the
plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be
fixed in the open() or setattr() paths.

332ab16f83 eCryptfs: Add reference counting to lower files
For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and
multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The
lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first
lookup through the lifetime of the inode.

This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds
reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not
currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such
as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is
opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the
term persistent file are changed to lower file.

Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file
and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs
the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it.

This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3
client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs
inode is destroyed.

mechanisms for detecting if the nfs_client is dead don't work.

Fix this by ensuring that we loop inside the nfs4_state_manager thread
instead.

5f6279da37 [SCSI] pmcraid: reject negative request size
There's a code path in pmcraid that can be reached via device ioctl that
causes all sorts of ugliness, including heap corruption or triggering
the OOM killer due to consecutive allocation of large numbers of pages.
Not especially relevant from a security perspective, since users must
have CAP_SYS_ADMIN to open the character device.

First, the user can call pmcraid_chr_ioctl() with a type
PMCRAID_PASSTHROUGH_IOCTL.  A pmcraid_passthrough_ioctl_buffer
is copied in, and the request_size variable is set to
buffer->ioarcb.data_transfer_length, which is an arbitrary 32-bit signed
value provided by the user.

If a negative value is provided here, bad things can happen.  For
example, pmcraid_build_passthrough_ioadls() is called with this
request_size, which immediately calls pmcraid_alloc_sglist() with a
negative size.  The resulting math on allocating a scatter list can
result in an overflow in the kzalloc() call (if num_elem is 0, the
sglist will be smaller than expected), or if num_elem is unexpectedly
large the subsequent loop will call alloc_pages() repeatedly, a high
number of pages will be allocated and the OOM killer might be invoked.

Prevent this value from being negative in pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough().

86cbfb5607 [SCSI] put stricter guards on queue dead checks
SCSI uses request_queue->queuedata == NULL as a signal that the queue
is dying.  We set this state in the sdev release function.  However,
this allows a small window where we release the last reference but
haven't quite got to this stage yet and so something will try to take
a reference in scsi_request_fn and oops.  It's very rare, but we had a
report here, so we're pushing this as a bug fix

The actual fix is to set request_queue->queuedata to NULL in
scsi_remove_device() before we drop the reference.  This causes
correct automatic rejects from scsi_request_fn as people who hold
additional references try to submit work and prevents anything from
getting a new reference to the sdev that way.

0b8393578c [SCSI] scsi_dh: fix reference counting in scsi_dh_activate error path
Commit db422318cb ([SCSI] scsi_dh:
propagate SCSI device deletion) introduced a regression where the device
reference is not dropped prior to scsi_dh_activate's early return from
the error path.

a1f74ae82d [SCSI] mpt2sas: prevent heap overflows and unchecked reads
At two points in handling device ioctls via /dev/mpt2ctl, user-supplied
length values are used to copy data from userspace into heap buffers
without bounds checking, allowing controllable heap corruption and
subsequently privilege escalation.

Additionally, user-supplied values are used to determine the size of a
copy_to_user() as well as the offset into the buffer to be read, with no
bounds checking, allowing users to read arbitrary kernel memory.

270dac35c2 libata: ahci_start_engine compliant to AHCI spec
At the end of section 10.1 of AHCI spec (rev 1.3), it states

Software shall not set PxCMD.ST to 1 until it is determined that
a functoinal device is present on the port as determined by
PxTFD.STS.BSY=0, PxTFD.STS.DRQ=0 and PxSSTS.DET=3h

Even though most AHCI host controller works without this check,
specific controller will fail under this condition.
