device.h: cleanup users outside of linux/include (C files) For files that are actively using linux/device.h, make sure that they call it out. This will allow us to clean up some of the implicit uses of linux/device.h within include/* without introducing build regressions. Yes, this was created by "cheating" -- i.e. the headers were cleaned up, and then the fallout was found and fixed, and then the two commits were reordered. This ensures we don't introduce build regressions into the git history. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

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.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: revert back to old userspace API by default Recompiling with the new extended version of struct rfkill_event broke systemd in *two* ways: - It used "sizeof(struct rfkill_event)" to read the event, but then complained if it actually got something != 8, this broke it on new kernels (that include the updated API); - It used sizeof(struct rfkill_event) to write a command, but didn't implement the intended expansion protocol where the kernel returns only how many bytes it accepted, and errored out due to the unexpected smaller size on kernels that didn't include the updated API. Even though systemd has now been fixed, that fix may not be always deployed, and other applications could potentially have similar issues. As such, in the interest of avoiding regressions, revert the default API "struct rfkill_event" back to the original size. Instead, add a new "struct rfkill_event_ext" that extends it by the new field, and even more clearly document that applications should be prepared for extensions in two ways: * write might only accept fewer bytes on older kernels, and will return how many to let userspace know which data may have been ignored; * read might return anything between 8 (the original size) and whatever size the application sized its buffer at, indicating how much event data was supported by the kernel. Perhaps that will help avoid such issues in the future and we won't have to come up with another version of the struct if we ever need to extend it again. Applications that want to take advantage of the new field will have to be modified to use struct rfkill_event_ext instead now, which comes with the danger of them having already been updated to use it from 'struct rfkill_event', but I found no evidence of that, and it's still relatively new.

rfkill: make new event layout opt-in Again new complaints surfaced that we had broken the ABI here, although previously all the userspace tools had agreed that it was their mistake and fixed it. Yet now there are cases (e.g. RHEL) that want to run old userspace with newer kernels, and thus are broken. Since this is a bit of a whack-a-mole thing, change the whole extensibility scheme of rfkill to no longer just rely on the message lengths, but instead require userspace to opt in via a new ioctl to a given maximum event size that it is willing to understand. By default, set that to RFKILL_EVENT_SIZE_V1 (8), so that the behaviour for userspace not calling the ioctl will look as if it's just running on an older kernel.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: revert back to old userspace API by default Recompiling with the new extended version of struct rfkill_event broke systemd in *two* ways: - It used "sizeof(struct rfkill_event)" to read the event, but then complained if it actually got something != 8, this broke it on new kernels (that include the updated API); - It used sizeof(struct rfkill_event) to write a command, but didn't implement the intended expansion protocol where the kernel returns only how many bytes it accepted, and errored out due to the unexpected smaller size on kernels that didn't include the updated API. Even though systemd has now been fixed, that fix may not be always deployed, and other applications could potentially have similar issues. As such, in the interest of avoiding regressions, revert the default API "struct rfkill_event" back to the original size. Instead, add a new "struct rfkill_event_ext" that extends it by the new field, and even more clearly document that applications should be prepared for extensions in two ways: * write might only accept fewer bytes on older kernels, and will return how many to let userspace know which data may have been ignored; * read might return anything between 8 (the original size) and whatever size the application sized its buffer at, indicating how much event data was supported by the kernel. Perhaps that will help avoid such issues in the future and we won't have to come up with another version of the struct if we ever need to extend it again. Applications that want to take advantage of the new field will have to be modified to use struct rfkill_event_ext instead now, which comes with the danger of them having already been updated to use it from 'struct rfkill_event', but I found no evidence of that, and it's still relatively new.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

rfkill: prevent unnecessary event generation Prevent unnecessary rfkill event generation when the state has not actually changed. These events have to be delivered to relevant userspace processes, causing these processes to wake up and do something while they could as well have slept. This obviously results in more CPU usage, longer time-to-sleep-again and therefore higher power consumption.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: Add the capability to switch all devices of all type in __rfkill_switch_all(). __rfkill_switch_all() switches the state of devices of a given type; however, it does not switch devices of all type (RFKILL_TYPE_ALL). As a result, it ignores the keycode "KEY_RFKILL" from another module, i.e. eeepc-wmi. This fix is to make __rfkill_switch_all() to be able to switch not only devices of a given type but also all devices. Signed-off-by: Alex Hung <alex.hung@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: add a reason to the HW rfkill state The WLAN device may exist yet not be usable. This can happen when the WLAN device is controllable by both the host and some platform internal component. We need some arbritration that is vendor specific, but when the device is not available for the host, we need to reflect this state towards the user space. Add a reason field to the rfkill object (and event) so that userspace can know why the device is in rfkill: because some other platform component currently owns the device, or because the actual hw rfkill signal is asserted. Capable userspace can now determine the reason for the rfkill and possibly do some negotiation on a side band channel using a proprietary protocol to gain ownership on the device in case the device is owned by some other component. When the host gains ownership on the device, the kernel can remove the RFKILL_HARD_BLOCK_NOT_OWNER reason and the hw rfkill state will be off. Then, the userspace can bring the device up and start normal operation. The rfkill_event structure is enlarged to include the additional byte, it is now 9 bytes long. Old user space will ask to read only 8 bytes so that the kernel can know not to feed them with more data. When the user space writes 8 bytes, new kernels will just read what is present in the file descriptor. This new byte is read only from the userspace standpoint anyway. If a new user space uses an old kernel, it'll ask to read 9 bytes but will get only 8, and it'll know that it didn't get the new state. When it'll write 9 bytes, the kernel will again ignore this new byte which is read only from the userspace standpoint.

rfkill: Fix use-after-free in rfkill_resume() If a device is getting removed or reprobed during resume, use-after-free might happen. For example, h5_btrtl_resume() schedules a work queue for device reprobing, which of course requires removal first. If the removal happens in parallel with the device_resume() and wins the race to acquire device_lock(), removal may remove the device from the PM lists and all, but device_resume() is already running and will continue when the lock can be acquired, thus calling rfkill_resume(). During this, if rfkill_set_block() is then called after the corresponding *_unregister() and kfree() are called, there will be an use-after-free in hci_rfkill_set_block(): BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in hci_rfkill_set_block+0x58/0xc0 [bluetooth] ...

As async_resume() holds a reference to the device, at this level there can be no use-after-free; only in the user that doesn't expect this scenario.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration. Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon. If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state. Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state" to get out of sync. Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume. eeepc-laptop will require modification.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

net: rfkill: move poll work to power efficient workqueue This patch moves the rfkill poll_work to the power efficient workqueue. This work does not have to be bound to the CPU that scheduled it, hence the selection of CPU that executes it would be left to the scheduler. Net result is that CPU idle times would be extended, resulting in power savings. This behaviour is enabled when CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT is selected. Cc: "John W.

rfkill: remove set_global_sw_state rfkill_set_global_sw_state() (previously rfkill_set_default()) will no longer be exported by the rewritten rfkill core. Instead, platform drivers which can provide persistent soft-rfkill state across power-down/reboot should indicate their initial state by calling rfkill_set_sw_state() before registration. Otherwise, they will be initialized to a default value during registration by a set_block call. We remove existing calls to rfkill_set_sw_state() which happen before registration, since these had no effect in the old model. If these drivers do have persistent state, the calls can be put back (subject to testing :-). This affects hp-wmi and acer-wmi. Drivers with persistent state will affect the global state only if rfkill-input is enabled. This is required, otherwise booting with wireless soft-blocked and pressing the wireless-toggle key once would have no apparent effect. This special case will be removed in future along with rfkill-input, in favour of a more flexible userspace daemon (see Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt). Now rfkill_global_states[n].def is only used to preserve global states over EPO, it is renamed to ".sav".

rfkill: make new event layout opt-in Again new complaints surfaced that we had broken the ABI here, although previously all the userspace tools had agreed that it was their mistake and fixed it. Yet now there are cases (e.g. RHEL) that want to run old userspace with newer kernels, and thus are broken. Since this is a bit of a whack-a-mole thing, change the whole extensibility scheme of rfkill to no longer just rely on the message lengths, but instead require userspace to opt in via a new ioctl to a given maximum event size that it is willing to understand. By default, set that to RFKILL_EVENT_SIZE_V1 (8), so that the behaviour for userspace not calling the ioctl will look as if it's just running on an older kernel.

*: convert stream-like files from nonseekable_open -> stream_open Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af3422 ("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods in file_operations which assume @offset access. I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert - and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g. drivers/input/mousedev.c) Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock (see details in 10dce8af3422): drivers/char/pcmcia/cm4000_cs.c:1685:7-23: ERROR: cm4000_fops: .read() can deadlock .write();

One can also recheck/review the patch via generating it with explanation comments included via $ make coccicheck MODE=patch COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci SPFLAGS="-D explain" (*) This second group also contains cases with read/write deadlocks that stream_open.cocci don't yet detect, but which are still valid to convert to stream_open since ppos is not used. For example drivers/pci/switch/switchtec.c calls wait_for_completion_interruptible() in its .read, but stream_open.cocci currently detects only "wait_event*" as blocking.

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

rfkill: make new event layout opt-in Again new complaints surfaced that we had broken the ABI here, although previously all the userspace tools had agreed that it was their mistake and fixed it. Yet now there are cases (e.g. RHEL) that want to run old userspace with newer kernels, and thus are broken. Since this is a bit of a whack-a-mole thing, change the whole extensibility scheme of rfkill to no longer just rely on the message lengths, but instead require userspace to opt in via a new ioctl to a given maximum event size that it is willing to understand. By default, set that to RFKILL_EVENT_SIZE_V1 (8), so that the behaviour for userspace not calling the ioctl will look as if it's just running on an older kernel.

rfkill: revert back to old userspace API by default Recompiling with the new extended version of struct rfkill_event broke systemd in *two* ways: - It used "sizeof(struct rfkill_event)" to read the event, but then complained if it actually got something != 8, this broke it on new kernels (that include the updated API); - It used sizeof(struct rfkill_event) to write a command, but didn't implement the intended expansion protocol where the kernel returns only how many bytes it accepted, and errored out due to the unexpected smaller size on kernels that didn't include the updated API. Even though systemd has now been fixed, that fix may not be always deployed, and other applications could potentially have similar issues. As such, in the interest of avoiding regressions, revert the default API "struct rfkill_event" back to the original size. Instead, add a new "struct rfkill_event_ext" that extends it by the new field, and even more clearly document that applications should be prepared for extensions in two ways: * write might only accept fewer bytes on older kernels, and will return how many to let userspace know which data may have been ignored; * read might return anything between 8 (the original size) and whatever size the application sized its buffer at, indicating how much event data was supported by the kernel. Perhaps that will help avoid such issues in the future and we won't have to come up with another version of the struct if we ever need to extend it again. Applications that want to take advantage of the new field will have to be modified to use struct rfkill_event_ext instead now, which comes with the danger of them having already been updated to use it from 'struct rfkill_event', but I found no evidence of that, and it's still relatively new.

To validate the events, userspace and the kernel need to have the proper event size to check for -- when reading from the other end they need to verify that it's at least version 1 of the event API, with the current struct size, so define a constant for that and make the code a little more 'future proof'. Not that I expect that we'll have to change the event size any time soon, but it's better to write the code in a way that lends itself to extending.

rfkill: make new event layout opt-in Again new complaints surfaced that we had broken the ABI here, although previously all the userspace tools had agreed that it was their mistake and fixed it. Yet now there are cases (e.g. RHEL) that want to run old userspace with newer kernels, and thus are broken. Since this is a bit of a whack-a-mole thing, change the whole extensibility scheme of rfkill to no longer just rely on the message lengths, but instead require userspace to opt in via a new ioctl to a given maximum event size that it is willing to understand. By default, set that to RFKILL_EVENT_SIZE_V1 (8), so that the behaviour for userspace not calling the ioctl will look as if it's just running on an older kernel.

compat_ioctl: move more drivers to compat_ptr_ioctl The .ioctl and .compat_ioctl file operations have the same prototype so they can both point to the same function, which works great almost all the time when all the commands are compatible. One exception is the s390 architecture, where a compat pointer is only 31 bit wide, and converting it into a 64-bit pointer requires calling compat_ptr(). Most drivers here will never run in s390, but since we now have a generic helper for it, it's easy enough to use it consistently. I double-checked all these drivers to ensure that all ioctl arguments are used as pointers or are ignored, but are not interpreted as integer values.

llseek: automatically add .llseek fop All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

rfkill: create useful userspace interface The new code added by this patch will make rfkill create a misc character device /dev/rfkill that userspace can use to control rfkill soft blocks and get status of devices as well as events when the status changes. Using it is very simple -- when you open it you can read a number of times to get the initial state, and every further read blocks (you can poll) on getting the next event from the kernel. The same structure you read is also used when writing to it to change the soft block of a given device, all devices of a given type, or all devices. This also makes CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT selectable again in order to be able to test without it present since its functionality can now be replaced by userspace entirely and distros and users may not want the input part of rfkill interfering with their userspace code. We will also write a userspace daemon to handle all that and consequently add the input code to the feature removal schedule. In order to have rfkilld support both kernels with and without CONFIG_RFKILL_INPUT (or new kernels after its eventual removal) we also add an ioctl (that only exists if rfkill-input is present) to disable rfkill-input. It is not very efficient, but at least gives the correct behaviour in all cases.

Revert "rfkill: Add rfkill-any LED trigger" This reverts commit 73f4f76a196d7adb11a1e192bd8024fe0bc83910. As Mike reported, and I should've seen in review, we can't call the new LED functions, which acquire the mutex, from places like rfkill_set_sw_state() that are documented to be callable from any context the user likes to use. For Mike's case it led to a deadlock, but other scenarios are possible. Reported-by: Михаил Кринкин <krinkin.m.u@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

rfkill: allocate static minor udev has a feature of creating /dev/<node> device-nodes if it finds a devnode:<node> modalias. This allows for auto-loading of modules that provide the node. This requires to use a statically allocated minor number for misc character devices. However, rfkill uses dynamic minor numbers and prevents auto-loading of the module. So allocate the next static misc minor number and use it for rfkill.
