2012-09-27new helper: daemonize_descriptors()Al Viro
descriptor-related parts of daemonize, done right. As the result we simplify the locking rules for ->files - we hold task_lock in *all* cases when we modify ->files. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-09-27new helper: iterate_fd()Al Viro
iterates through the opened files in given descriptor table, calling a supplied function; we stop once non-zero is returned. Callback gets struct file *, descriptor number and const void * argument passed to iterator. It is called with files->file_lock held, so it is not allowed to block. tty_io, netprio_cgroup and selinux flush_unauthorized_files() converted to its use.

2012-09-27expose a low-level variant of fd_install() for binderAl Viro
Similar situation to that of __alloc_fd(); do not use unless you really have to. You should not touch any descriptor table other than your own; it's a sure sign of a really bad API design. As with __alloc_fd(), you *must* use a first-class reference to struct files_struct; something obtained by get_files_struct(some task) (let alone direct task->files) will not do. It must be either current->files, or obtained by get_files_struct(current) by the owner of that sucker and given to you. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

At that point nobody can see us anyway; everything that looks at files_fdtable(files) is separated from the guts of put_files_struct(files) - either since files is current->files or because we fetched it under task_lock() and hadn't dropped that yet, or because we'd bumped files->count while holding task_lock()...

2012-09-27new helper: __alloc_fd()Al Viro
Essentially, alloc_fd() in a files_struct we own a reference to. Most of the time wanting to use it is a sign of lousy API design (such as android/binder). It's *not* a general-purpose interface; better that than open-coding its guts, but again, playing with other process' descriptor table is a sign of bad design.

Pull more networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of bugs. These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to continue using pskb_may_pull(). So they could end up reading garbage. It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify the linear SKB data area. 2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can call down into the TCP keepalive code. The case basically involves creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...) Fixed by Eric Dumazet. 3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP. Fix from Andrzej Kaczmarek. 4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in place. From Andrei Emeltchenko. 5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in cfg80211, from Luis R. Rodriguez. 6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach. 7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe. 8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a team, fix from Jiri Pirko. 9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie state, from Xiaodong Xu. 10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized. 11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but that doesn't program the device properly.

2012-09-25c/r: prctl: fix build error for no-MMU caseMark Salter
Commit 1ad75b9e1628 ("c/r: prctl: add minimal address test to PR_SET_MM") added some address checking to prctl_set_mm() used by checkpoint-restore. This causes a build error for no-MMU systems: kernel/sys.c: In function 'prctl_set_mm': kernel/sys.c:1868:34: error: 'mmap_min_addr' undeclared (first use in this function) The test for mmap_min_addr doesn't make a lot of sense for no-MMU code as noted in commit 6e1415467614 ("NOMMU: Optimise away the {dac_,}mmap_min_addr tests"). This patch defines mmap_min_addr as 0UL in the no-MMU case so that the compiler will optimize away tests for "addr < mmap_min_addr".

2012-09-25lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportionsJan Kara
When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative values for the number of observed events. This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits. This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's 3.6.0-rc6 based kernel. Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly) thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

2012-09-25sh: pfc: Fix up GPIO mux type reconfig case.Paul Mundt
Some drivers need to switch pin states between GPIO and pin function at runtime, which was inadvertently broken in the pinctrl driver for GPIOs being bound to a specific direction. This fixes up the request path to ensure that previously configured GPIOs don't cause us to inadvertently error out with an unsupported mux on reconfig, which in practice is primarily aimed at trapping pull-up/down users that have yet to be implemented under the new API. Fixes up regressions in the TPU PWM driver, amongst others.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless John W. Linville says: ==================== Please pull this last(?) batch of fixes intended for 3.6... For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says this: "Here goes probably my last update to 3.6. It includes the two patches you were ok last week(from Andrzej Kaczmarek), those are critical ones, and two other fixes one for a system crash and the other for a missing lockdep annotation." The referenced fixes from Andrzej prevent attempts to configure devices that are powered-off. Along with the Bluetooth fixes, there are a couple of 802.11 fixes. Emmanuel Grumbach gives us an iwlwifi fix to prevent releasing an interrupt twice. Luis R. Rodriguez provides a fix for a possible circular lock dependency in the cfg80211 regulatory enforcement code. All of these have been in linux-next for a few days.

The KSZ8021 PHY was previously caught by KS8051, which is not correct. This PHY needs additional setup if it is strapped for address 0. In such case an reserved bit must be written in the 0x16, "Operation Mode Strap Override" register. According to the KS8051 datasheet, that bit means "PHY Address 0 in non-broadcast" and it indeed behaves as such on KSZ8021. The issue where the ethernet controller (Freescale FEC) did not communicate with network is fixed by writing this bit as 1. Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de> Cc: David J.
