1330deb0f6 CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the PowerPC arch
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

a2f2945a99 The oomkiller calculations make decisions based on capabilities. Since
these are not security decisions and LSMs should not record if they fall

06112163f5 Add a new capable interface that will be used by systems that use audit to
make an A or B type decision instead of a security decision.  Currently
this is the case at least for filesystems when deciding if a process can use
the reserved 'root' blocks and for the case of things like the oom
algorithm determining if processes are root processes and should be less
likely to be killed.  These types of security system requests should not be
audited or logged since they are not really security decisions.  It would be
possible to solve this problem like the vm_enough_memory security check did
by creating a new LSM interface and moving all of the policy into that
interface but proves the needlessly bloat the LSM and provide complex
indirection.

This merely allows those decisions to be made where they belong and to not
flood logs or printk with denials for thing that are not security decisions.

637d32dc72 Capabilities: BUG when an invalid capability is requested
If an invalid (large) capability is requested the capabilities system
may panic as it is dereferencing an array of fixed (short) length.  Its
possible (and actually often happens) that the capability system
accidentally stumbled into a valid memory region but it also regularly
happens that it hits invalid memory and BUGs.  If such an operation does
get past cap_capable then the selinux system is sure to have problems as
it already does a (simple) validity check and BUG.  This is known to
happen by the broken and buggy firegl driver.

This patch cleanly checks all capable calls and BUG if a call is for an
invalid capability.  This will likely break the firegl driver for some
situations, but it is the right thing to do.  Garbage into a security
system gets you killed/bugged

e68b75a027 When the capset syscall is used it is not possible for audit to record the
actual capbilities being added/removed.  This patch adds a new record type
which emits the target pid and the eff, inh, and perm cap sets.

example output if you audit capset syscalls would be:

1f29fae297 file capabilities: add no_file_caps switch (v4)
Add a no_file_caps boot option when file capabilities are
compiled into the kernel (CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y).

This allows distributions to ship a kernel with file capabilities
compiled in, without forcing users to use (and understand and
trust) them.

When no_file_caps is specified at boot, then when a process executes
a file, any file capabilities stored with that file will not be
used in the calculation of the process' new capability sets.

This means that booting with the no_file_caps boot option will
not be the same as booting a kernel with file capabilities
compiled out - in particular a task with  CAP_SETPCAP will not
have any chance of passing capabilities to another task (which
isn't "really" possible anyway, and which may soon by killed
altogether by David Howells in any case), and it will instead
be able to put new capabilities in its pI.  However since fI
will always be empty and pI is masked with fI, it gains the
task nothing.

We also support the extra prctl options, setting securebits and
dropping capabilities from the per-process bounding set.

The other remaining difference is that killpriv, task_setscheduler,
setioprio, and setnice will continue to be hooked.  That will
be noticable in the case where a root task changed its uid
while keeping some caps, and another task owned by the new uid
tries to change settings for the more privileged task.

Changelog:
	Nov 05 2008: (v4) trivial port on top of always-start-\
		with-clear-caps patch
	Sep 23 2008: nixed file_caps_enabled when file caps are
		not compiled in as it isn't used.
		Document no_file_caps in kernel-parameters.txt.

3c324283e6 sata_nv: fix generic, nf2/3 detection regression
All three flavors of sata_nv's are different in how their hardreset
behaves.

* generic: Hardreset is not reliable.  Link often doesn't come online
  after hardreset.

* nf2/3: A little bit better - link comes online with longer debounce
  timing.  However, nf2/3 can't reliable wait for the first D2H
  Register FIS, so it can't wait for device readiness or classify the
  device after hardreset.  Follow-up SRST required.

* ck804: Hardreset finally works.

The core layer change to prefer hardreset and follow up changes
exposed the above issues and caused various detection regressions for
all three flavors.  This patch, hopefully, fixes all the known issues
and should make sata_nv error handling more reliable.

cadef677e4 sata_promise: add ATA engine reset to reset ops
Promise ATA engines need to be reset when errors occur.
That's currently done for errors detected by sata_promise itself,
but it's not done for errors like timeouts detected outside of
the low-level driver.

The effect of this omission is that a timeout tends to result
in a sequence of failed COMRESETs after which libata EH gives
up and disables the port. At that point the port's ATA engine
hangs and even reloading the driver will not resume it.

To fix this, make sata_promise override ->hardreset on SATA
ports with code which calls pdc_reset_port() on the port in
question before calling libata's hardreset. PATA ports don't
use ->hardreset, so for those we override ->softreset instead.

or simply bad timing, this can cause a fatal error since linkwatch_event
might run too soon.

7d96567ac0 bnx2x: PCI configuration bug on big-endian
The current code read nothing but zeros on big-endian (wrong part of the
32bits). This caused poor performance on big-endian machines. Though this
issue did not cause the system to crash, the performance is significantly
better with the fix so I view it as critical bug fix.

9a0354405f bnx2x: Removing the PMF indication when unloading
When the PMF flag is set, the driver can access the HW freely. When the
driver is unloaded, it should not access the HW. The problem caused fatal
errors when "ethtool -i" was called after the calling instance was unloaded
and another instance was already loaded

ee04448d88 mv643xx_eth: fix SMI bus access timeouts
The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to
wait for SMI completion interrupts.

If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude
that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true --
wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI
completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than
the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be
scheduled again.  This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts
when the system would be under heavy load.

The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and
to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to
determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.

818e3dd30a tracing, ring-buffer: add paranoid checks for loops
While writing a new tracer, I had a bug where I caused the ring-buffer
to recurse in a bad way. The bug was with the tracer I was writing
and not the ring-buffer itself. But it took a long time to find the
problem.

This patch adds paranoid checks into the ring-buffer infrastructure
that will catch bugs of this nature.

Note: I put the bug back in the tracer and this patch showed the error
      nicely and prevented the lockup.

b3aa557722 ftrace: use kretprobe trampoline name to test in output
Impact: ia64+tracing build fix

When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the
kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output
of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this
"kprobe_trampoline" function.

To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer
of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it
did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead.

Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline
function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds.

This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see
if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from
being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can
happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we
go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.
