650320181a ARM: change ARM_DMA_ZONE_SIZE into a variable
Having this value defined at compile time prevents multiple machines with
conflicting definitions to coexist.  Move it to a variable in preparation
for having a per machine value selected at run time.  This is relevant
only when CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is selected.

4356d0b64b IB/qib: Fix potential deadlock with link down interrupt
There is a possibility of a deadlock due to the way locks are
acquired and released in qib_set_uevent_bits(). The function
qib_set_uevent_bits() is called in process context and it uses
spin_lock() and spin_unlock().  This same lock is acquired/released
in interrupt context which can lead to a deadlock when running on
the same cpu.

The fix is to replace spin_lock() and spin_unlock() with
spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore() respectively in
qib_set_uevent_bits().

9b89925c0d IB/mthca: Remove unnecessary read of PCI_CAP_ID_EXP
The PCIE capability offset is saved during PCI bus walking.  It will
remove an unnecessary search in the PCI configuration space if this
value is referenced instead of reacquiring it.  Also, pci_is_pcie is a
better way of determining if the device is PCIE or not (as it uses the
same saved PCIE capability offset).

5763181172 IB/ipath: Convert old cpumask api into new one
Adapt to new api.  We plan to remove old one later.  Almost all
changes are trivial, but there is one real fix: the following code is
unsafe:

	int ncpus = num_online_cpus()
	for (i = 0; i < ncpus; i++) {
		..
	}

because 1) we don't guarantee last bit of online cpus is equal to
num_online_cpus(). some arch assign sparse cpu number.  2) cpu
hotplugging may change cpu_online_mask at same time.  we need to pin
it by get_online_cpus().

Harshal Chhaya discovered during network tests, that
several of his clients dropped-off the network. The
captured packets shows that the beacons sent by the
AP are at a much lower power than the other data
packets.

The reason for this mishap: The driver never updated
the beacon phy register, so all beacons were always
sent at the lowest power.

bab632d69e vhost: vhost TX zero-copy support
>From: Shirley Ma <mashirle@us.ibm.com>

This adds experimental zero copy support in vhost-net,
disabled by default. To enable, set
experimental_zcopytx module option to 1.

This patch maintains the outstanding userspace buffers in the
sequence it is delivered to vhost. The outstanding userspace buffers
will be marked as done once the lower device buffers DMA has finished.
This is monitored through last reference of kfree_skb callback. Two
buffer indices are used for this purpose.

The vhost-net device passes the userspace buffers info to lower device
skb through message control. DMA done status check and guest
notification are handled by handle_tx: in the worst case is all buffers
in the vq are in pending/done status, so we need to notify guest to
release DMA done buffers first before we get any new buffers from the
vq.

One known problem is that if the guest stops submitting
buffers, buffers might never get used until some
further action, e.g. device reset. This does not
seem to affect linux guests.

0c9361fcde RDMA/cma: Avoid assigning an IS_ERR value to cm_id pointer in CMA id object
Avoid assigning an IS_ERR value to the cm_id pointer.  This fixes a
few anomalies in the error flow due to confusion about checking for
NULL vs IS_ERR, and eliminates the need to test for the IS_ERR value
every time we wish to determine if the cma_id object has a cm device
associated with it.

Also, eliminate the now-unnecessary procedure cma_has_cm_dev (we can
check directly for the existence of the device pointer -- for a
non-NULL check, makes no difference if it is the iwarp or the ib
pointer).

Finally, make a few code changes here to improve coding consistency.

6d38ca01c0 evm: evm_verify_hmac must not return INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN
If EVM is not supported or enabled, evm_verify_hmac() returns
INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN, which ima_appraise_measurement() ignores and sets
the appraisal status based solely on the security.ima verification.

evm_verify_hmac() also returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN for other failures, such
as temporary failures like -ENOMEM, resulting in possible attack vectors.
This patch changes the default return code for temporary/unexpected
failures, like -ENOMEM, from INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN to INTEGRITY_FAIL, making
evm_verify_hmac() fail safe.

As a result, failures need to be re-evaluated in order to catch both
temporary errors, such as the -ENOMEM, as well as errors that have been
resolved in fix mode.

66dbc325af evm: re-release
EVM protects a file's security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity
attacks.  This patchset provides the framework and an initial method.  The
initial method maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the security extended
attributes, storing the HMAC value as the extended attribute 'security.evm'.
Other methods of validating the integrity of a file's metadata will be posted
separately (eg. EVM-digital-signatures).

While this patchset does authenticate the security xattrs, and
cryptographically binds them to the inode, coming extensions will bind other
directory and inode metadata for more complete protection.  To help simplify
the review and upstreaming process, each extension will be posted separately
(eg. IMA-appraisal, IMA-appraisal-directory).  For a general overview of the
proposed Linux integrity subsystem, refer to Dave Safford's whitepaper:
http://downloads.sf.net/project/linux-ima/linux-ima/Integrity_overview.pdf.

EVM depends on the Kernel Key Retention System to provide it with a
trusted/encrypted key for the HMAC-sha1 operation. The key is loaded onto the
root's keyring using keyctl.  Until EVM receives notification that the key has
been successfully loaded onto the keyring (echo 1 > <securityfs>/evm), EVM can
not create or validate the 'security.evm' xattr, but returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN.
Loading the key and signaling EVM should be done as early as possible. Normally
this is done in the initramfs, which has already been measured as part of the
trusted boot.  For more information on creating and loading existing
trusted/encrypted keys, refer to Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt.  A
sample dracut patch, which loads the trusted/encrypted key and enables EVM, is
available from http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/#EVM.

Based on the LSMs enabled, the set of EVM protected security xattrs is defined
at compile.  EVM adds the following three calls to the existing security hooks:
evm_inode_setxattr(), evm_inode_post_setxattr(), and evm_inode_removexattr.  To
initialize and update the 'security.evm' extended attribute, EVM defines three
calls: evm_inode_post_init(), evm_inode_post_setattr() and
evm_inode_post_removexattr() hooks.  To verify the integrity of a security
xattr, EVM exports evm_verifyxattr().

Changelog v7:
- Fixed URL in EVM ABI documentation

Changelog v6: (based on Serge Hallyn's review)
- fix URL in patch description
- remove evm_hmac_size definition
- use SHA1_DIGEST_SIZE (removed both MAX_DIGEST_SIZE and evm_hmac_size)
- moved linux include before other includes
- test for crypto_hash_setkey failure
- fail earlier for invalid key
- clear entire encrypted key, even on failure
- check xattr name length before comparing xattr names

Changelog:
- locking based on i_mutex, remove evm_mutex
- using trusted/encrypted keys for storing the EVM key used in the HMAC-sha1
  operation.
- replaced crypto hash with shash (Dmitry Kasatkin)
- support for additional methods of verifying the security xattrs
  (Dmitry Kasatkin)
- iint not allocated for all regular files, but only for those appraised
- Use cap_sys_admin in lieu of cap_mac_admin
- Use __vfs_setxattr_noperm(), without permission checks, from EVM

1601fbad2b xattr: define vfs_getxattr_alloc and vfs_xattr_cmp
vfs_getxattr_alloc() and vfs_xattr_cmp() are two new kernel xattr helper
functions.  vfs_getxattr_alloc() first allocates memory for the requested
xattr and then retrieves it. vfs_xattr_cmp() compares a given value with
the contents of an extended attribute.

f381c27222 integrity: move ima inode integrity data management
Move the inode integrity data(iint) management up to the integrity directory
in order to share the iint among the different integrity models.

Changelog:
- don't define MAX_DIGEST_SIZE
- rename several globally visible 'ima_' prefixed functions, structs,
  locks, etc to 'integrity_'
- replace '20' with SHA1_DIGEST_SIZE
- reflect location change in appropriate Kconfig and Makefiles
- remove unnecessary initialization of iint_initialized to 0
- rebased on current ima_iint.c
- define integrity_iint_store/lock as static

There should be no other functional changes.
