implement() is setting bytes in LE data stream. In case the data is not
aligned to 64bits, it reads past the allocated buffer. It doesn't really
change any value there (it's properly bitmasked), but in case that this
read past the boundary hits a page boundary, pagefault happens when
accessing 64bits of 'x' in implement(), and kernel oopses.
This happens much more often when numbered reports are in use, as the
initial 8bit skip in the buffer makes the whole process work on values
which are not aligned to 64bits.
This problem dates back to attempts in 2005 and 2006 to make implement()
and extract() as generic as possible, and even back then the problem
was realized by Adam Kroperlin, but falsely assumed to be impossible
to cause any harm:
I have made several attempts at fixing it "on the spot" directly in
implement(), but the results were horrible; the special casing for processing
last 64bit chunk and switching to different math makes it unreadable mess.
I therefore took a path to allocate a few bytes more which will never make
it into final report, but are there as a cushion for all the 64bit math
operations happening in implement() and extract().
All callers of hid_output_report() are converted at the same time to allocate
the buffer by newly introduced hid_alloc_report_buf() helper.
Bruno noticed that the whole raw_size test can be dropped as well, as
hid_alloc_report_buf() makes sure that the buffer is always of a proper
size.

There are a *LOT* of memory debugging options. They are just scattered
all over the "Kernel Hacking" menu. Sure, "memory debugging" is a very
vague term and it's going to be hard to make absolute rules about what
goes in here, but this has to be better than what we had before.
This does, however, leave out the architecture-specific memory
debugging options (like x86's DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX). There would need
to be some substantial changes to move those in here. Kconfig can not
easily mix arch-specific and generic options together: it really
requires a file per-architecture, and I think having an

This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig

HID: wacom: Intuos4 battery charging changes
Intuos4 WL is separately reporting power supply and battery
charging status - now hid-wacom is using that information.
Previously hid-wacom was wrongly treating "battery charging" bit
as "power supply connected". Now it should report battery charging,
battery discharging, battery full and power supply status.
Intuos4 WL sends reports when is in use (obvious) and when unplugging
power supply. If means that if the device is being charged, but it's not
being used it will never report "battery full". The same problem happens
after the device has been connected, but it's not in use - the
battery/ac status will be incorrect. Currently there is no mechanism to
ask the device to send a report containing battery/ac status.

Causes raid10 to skip a recovery in certain cases where it is safe to
do so. Unfortunately it also causes a reshape to be skipped which is
never safe. The result is that an attempt to reshape a RAID10 will
appear to complete instantly, but no data will have been moves so the
array will now contain garbage.
(If nothing is written, you can recovery by simple performing the
reverse reshape which will also complete instantly).

md/raid5: allow 5-device RAID6 to be reshaped to 4-device.
There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).
This is bad because
- the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
already, and
- it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.
So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

Power-up timing
The DS2408 is sensitive to the power-on slew rate and can inadvertently
power up with a test mode feature enabled. When this occurs, the P0 port
does not respond to the Channel Access Write command. For most reliable
operation, it is recommended to disable the test mode after every power-on
reset using the Disable Test Mode sequence shown below. The 64-bit ROM
code must be transmitted in the same bit sequence as with the Match ROM
command, i.e., least significant bit first. This precaution is
recommended in parasite power mode (VCC pin connected to GND) as well as
with VCC power.

nbd: correct disconnect behavior
Currently, when a disconnect is requested by the user (via NBD_DISCONNECT
ioctl) the return from NBD_DO_IT is undefined (it is usually one of
several error codes). This means that nbd-client does not know if a
manual disconnect was performed or whether a network error occurred.
Because of this, nbd-client's persist mode (which tries to reconnect after
error, but not after manual disconnect) does not always work correctly.
This change fixes this by causing NBD_DO_IT to always return 0 if a user
requests a disconnect. This means that nbd-client can correctly either
persist the connection (if an error occurred) or disconnect (if the user
requested it).

Change endpoint device name format to use a component tag value instead of
device destination ID.
RapidIO specification defines a component tag to be a unique identifier
for devices in a network. RapidIO switches already use component tag as
part of their device name and also use it for device identification when
processing error management event notifications.
Forming an endpoint's device name using its component tag instead of
destination ID allows to keep sysfs device directories unchanged in case
if a routing process dynamically changes endpoint's destination ID as a
result of route optimization.
This change should not affect any existing users because a valid device
destination ID always should be obtained by reading "destid" attribute and
not by parsing device name.
This patch also removes switchid member from struct rio_switch because it
simply duplicates the component tag and does not have other use than in
device name generation.

Update enumeration/discovery method registration mechanism to allow
loading enumeration/discovery methods before all mports are registered.
Existing statically linked RapidIO subsystem expects that all available
RapidIO mport devices are initialized and registered before the
enumeration/discovery method is registered. Switching to loadable mport
device drivers creates situation when mport device driver can be loaded
after enumeration/discovery method is attached (e.g., loadable mport
driver in a system with statically linked RapidIO core and enumerator).
This also will happen in a system with hot-pluggable RapidIO controllers.
To remove the dependency on the initialization/registration order this
patch introduces enumeration/discovery registration mechanism that
supports arbitrary registration order of mports and enumerator/discovery
methods.
The following registration rules are implemented:
- only one enumeration/discovery method can be registered for given mport ID
(including RIO_MPORT_ANY);
- when new enumeration/discovery methods tries to attach to the registered mport
device, method with matching mport ID will replace a default method previously
registered for given mport (if any);
- enumeration/discovery method with target ID=RIO_MPORT_ANY will be attached
only to mports that do not have another enumerator attached to them;
- when new mport device is registered with RapidIO subsystem, registration
routine searches for the enumeration/discovery method with the best matching
mport ID;

Rework probe/remove routines to prevent rionet driver from monopolizing
target RapidIO devices. Fix conflict with modular RapidIO switch drivers.
Using one of RapidIO messaging channels rionet driver provides a service
layer common to all endpoint devices in a system's RapidIO network. These
devices may also require their own specific device driver which will be
blocked from attaching to the target device by rionet (or block rionet if
loaded earlier). To avoid conflict with device-specific drivers, the
rionet driver is reworked to be registered as a subsystem interface on the
RapidIO bus.
The reworked rio_remove_dev() and rionet_exit() routines also include
handling of individual rionet peer device removal which was not supported
before.

Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.
This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method. To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure. The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.
If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.
This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

fork: reorder permissions when violating number of processes limits
When a task is attempting to violate the RLIMIT_NPROC limit we have a
check to see if the task is sufficiently priviledged. The check first
looks at CAP_SYS_ADMIN, then CAP_SYS_RESOURCE, then if the task is uid=0.
A result is that tasks which are allowed by the uid=0 check are first
checked against the security subsystem. This results in the security
subsystem auditting a denial for sys_admin and sys_resource and then the
task passing the uid=0 check.
This patch rearranges the code to first check uid=0, since if we pass that
we shouldn't hit the security system at all. We then check sys_resource,
since it is the smallest capability which will solve the problem. Lastly
we check the fallback everything cap_sysadmin. We don't want to give this
capability many places since it is so powerful.
This will eliminate many of the false positive/needless denial messages we
get when a root task tries to violate the nproc limit. (note that
kthreads count against root, so on a sufficiently large machine we can
actually get past the default limits before any userspace tasks are
launched.)

Kill it, and introduce "static int core_name_size" updated by

core_name_size never grows for no reason.
We do not bother to to calculate the "right" new size, we simply do

cn_escape() writes to the freed memory.
Introduce cn_esc_printf() which hopefully does this all right. It records

general) after krealloc().

coredump: cn_vprintf() has no reason to call vsnprintf() twice
cn_vprintf() looks really overcomplicated and sub-optimal. We do not need
vsnprintf(NULL) to calculate the size we need, we can simply try to print
into the current buffer and expand/retry only if necessary.

do_coredump() assumes that format_corename() can only fail if
expand_corename() fails and frees cn->corename. This is not true, for
example cn_print_exe_file() can fail and in this case nobody frees
cn->corename.
Change do_coredump() to always do kfree(cn->corename) after it calls
format_corename() (NULL is fine), change expand_corename() to do nothing
if kmalloc() fails.

call_usermodehelper_exec() does nothing but returns success if path[0] ==
0. The only user which needs this strange feature is request_module(), it
can check modprobe_path[0] itself like other users do if they want to
detect the "disabled by admin" case.
Kill it. Not only it looks strange, it can confuse other callers. And
this allows us to revert 264b83c0 ("usermodehelper: check
subprocess_info->path != NULL"), do_execve(NULL) is safe.

ptrace: add ability to get/set signal-blocked mask
crtools uses a parasite code for dumping processes. The parasite code is
injected into a process with help PTRACE_SEIZE.
Currently crtools blocks signals from a parasite code. If a process has
pending signals, crtools wait while a process handles these signals.
This method is not suitable for stopped tasks. A stopped task can have a
few pending signals, when we will try to execute a parasite code, we will
need to drop SIGSTOP, but all other signals must remain pending, because a
state of processes must not be changed during checkpointing.
This patch adds two ptrace commands to set/get signal-blocked mask.
I think gdb can use this commands too.

Documentation/CodingStyle: allow multiple return statements per function
A surprising number of newbies interpret this section to mean that only
one return statement is allowed per function. Part of the problem is that
the "one return statement per function" rule is an actual style guideline
that people are used to from other projects.

] nilfs2: use atomic64_t type for inodes_count and blocks_count fields in nilfs_root struct
The cp_inodes_count and cp_blocks_count are represented as __le64 type in
on-disk structure (struct nilfs_checkpoint). But analogous fields in
in-core structure (struct nilfs_root) are represented by atomic_t type.
This patch replaces atomic_t on atomic64_t type in representation of
inodes_count and blocks_count fields in struct nilfs_root.

This patch implements real calculation of free inodes count. First of
all, it is calculated total file nodes in file system as
(desc_blocks_count * groups_per_desc_block * entries_per_group). Then, it
is calculated free inodes count as difference the total file nodes and
used inodes count. As a result, we have such output for NILFS2:

drivers/rtc/rtc-sirfsoc.c: add rtc drivers for CSR SiRFprimaII and SiRFatlasVI
On CSR SiRFprimaII/atlasVI, there is a programmable 16-bit divider
(RTC_DIV) that divides the input 32.768KHz clock to the frequency that
users need (E.g. 1 Hz). The divided real-time clock will be used to
drive a 32-bit counter (RTC_COUNTER) that provides users with the actual
time.
In each cycle of the divided real-time clock, there is a Hertz interrupt
generated to the RISC. Users can also configure an alarm (RTC_ALARM).
When RTC_COUNTER matches the alarm, there will be an alarm interrupt
generated to the RISC.
The system RTC can generate an alarm wake-up signal to notify the power
controller to wake up from power saving mode.

rtc: omap: restore back (hard-code) wakeup support
rtc-omap driver modules is used both by OMAP1/2, Davinci SoC platforms.
However, rtc wake support on OMAP1 is broken. Hence the
device_init_wakeup() was removed from rtc-omap driver and moved to
platform board files that supported it (DA850/OMAP-L138). [1]
However, recently [2] it was suggested that driver should always do a
device_init_wakeup(dev, true). Platforms that don't want/need
wakeup support can disable it from userspace via:
echo disabled > /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup
Also, with the new DT boot-up, board file doesn't exist and hence there
is no way to have device wakeup support rtc.
The fix for above issues, is to hard code device_init_wakeup() inside
driver and let platforms that don't need this, handle it through the
sysfs power entry.
