[Bluetooth] Fix regression from using default link policy
To speed up the Simple Pairing connection setup, the support for the
default link policy has been enabled. This is in contrast to settings
the link policy on every connection setup. Using the default link policy
is the preferred way since there is no need to dynamically change it for
every connection.
For backward compatibility reason and to support old userspace the
HCISETLINKPOL ioctl has been switched over to using hci_request() to
issue the HCI command for setting the default link policy instead of
just storing it in the HCI device structure.
However the hci_request() can only be issued when the device is
brought up. If used on a device that is registered, but still down
it will timeout and fail. This is problematic since the command is
put on the TX queue and the Bluetooth core tries to submit it to
hardware that is not ready yet. The timeout for these requests is
10 seconds and this causes a significant regression when setting up
a new device.
The userspace can perfectly handle a failure of the HCISETLINKPOL
ioctl and will re-submit it later, but the 10 seconds delay causes
a problem. So in case hci_request() is called on a device that is
still down, just fail it with ENETDOWN to indicate what happens.

[Bluetooth] Reject L2CAP connections on an insecure ACL link
The Security Mode 4 of the Bluetooth 2.1 specification has strict
authentication and encryption requirements. It is the initiators job
to create a secure ACL link. However in case of malicious devices, the
acceptor has to make sure that the ACL is encrypted before allowing
any kind of L2CAP connection. The only exception here is the PSM 1 for
the service discovery protocol, because that is allowed to run on an
insecure ACL link.
Previously it was enough to reject a L2CAP connection during the
connection setup phase, but with Bluetooth 2.1 it is forbidden to
do any L2CAP protocol exchange on an insecure link (except SDP).
The new hci_conn_check_link_mode() function can be used to check the
integrity of an ACL link. This functions also takes care of the cases
where Security Mode 4 is disabled or one of the devices is based on
an older specification.
With the introduction of Security Mode 4 and Simple Pairing from the
Bluetooth 2.1 specification it became mandatory that the initiator
requires authentication and encryption before any L2CAP channel can
be established. The only exception here is PSM 1 for the service
discovery protocol (SDP). It is meant to be used without any encryption
since it contains only public information. This is how Bluetooth 2.0
and before handle connections on PSM 1.
For Bluetooth 2.1 devices the pairing procedure differentiates between
no bonding, general bonding and dedicated bonding. The L2CAP layer
wrongly uses always general bonding when creating new connections, but it
should not do this for SDP connections. In this case the authentication
requirement should be no bonding and the just-works model should be used,
but in case of non-SDP connection it is required to use general bonding.
If the new connection requires man-in-the-middle (MITM) protection, it
also first wrongly creates an unauthenticated link key and then later on
requests an upgrade to an authenticated link key to provide full MITM
protection. With Simple Pairing the link key generation is an expensive
operation (compared to Bluetooth 2.0 and before) and doing this twice
during a connection setup causes a noticeable delay when establishing
a new connection. This should be avoided to not regress from the expected
Bluetooth 2.0 connection times. The authentication requirements are known
up-front and so enforce them.
To fulfill these requirements the hci_connect() function has been extended
with an authentication requirement parameter that will be stored inside
the connection information and can be retrieved by userspace at any
time. This allows the correct IO capabilities exchange and results in
the expected behavior.
[Bluetooth] Fix reference counting during ACL config stage
The ACL config stage keeps holding a reference count on incoming
connections when requesting the extended features. This results in
keeping an ACL link up without any users. The problem here is that
the Bluetooth specification doesn't define an ownership of the ACL
link and thus it can happen that the implementation on the initiator
side doesn't care about disconnecting unused links. In this case the
acceptor needs to take care of this.

NFS: Restore missing hunk in NFS mount option parser
Automounter maps can contain mount options valid for other NFS
implementations but not for Linux. The Linux automounter uses the
mount command's "-s" command line option ("s" for "sloppy") so that
mount requests containing such options are not rejected.
Commit f45663ce5fb30f76a3414ab3ac69f4dd320e760a attempted to address a
known regression with text-based NFS mount option parsing. Unrecognized
mount options would cause mount requests to fail, even if the "-s"
option was used on the mount command line.
Unfortunately, this commit was not complete as submitted. It adds a
new mount option, "sloppy". But it is missing a hunk, so it now allows
NFS mounts with unrecognized mount options, even if the "sloppy" option
is not present. This could be a problem if a required critical mount
option such as "sync" is misspelled, for example, and is considered a
regression from 2.6.26.
This patch restores the missing hunk. Now, the default behavior of
text-based NFS mount options is as before: any unrecognized mount option
will cause the mount to fail.
Please include this in 2.6.27-rc.

netns : fix kernel panic in timewait socket destruction
How to reproduce ?
- create a network namespace
- use tcp protocol and get timewait socket
- exit the network namespace
- after a moment (when the timewait socket is destroyed), the kernel
panics.
This patch provides a function to purge all timewait sockets related
to a network namespace. The timewait sockets life cycle is not tied with
the network namespace, that means the timewait sockets stay alive while
the network namespace dies. The timewait sockets are for avoiding to
receive a duplicate packet from the network, if the network namespace is
freed, the network stack is removed, so no chance to receive any packets
from the outside world. Furthermore, having a pending destruction timer
on these sockets with a network namespace freed is not safe and will lead
to an oops if the timer callback which try to access data belonging to
the namespace like for example in:
inet_twdr_do_twkill_work
-> NET_INC_STATS_BH(twsk_net(tw), LINUX_MIB_TIMEWAITED);
Purging the timewait sockets at the network namespace destruction will:
1) speed up memory freeing for the namespace
2) fix kernel panic on asynchronous timewait destruction

The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included
the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected
for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction
faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as

after we have found a runnable context in spusched_tick, the same
context may have been scheduled by spu_activate().
This may result in a panic if we try to unschedule a context that has
been freed in the meantime.
This change exits spu_schedule() if the context has already been
scheduled, so we don't end up scheduling it twice.

x86: cpu_init(): fix memory leak when using CPU hotplug
Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online.
But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug
offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for
a CPU.
Fix is to allocate exception stacks only once -- when the CPU is
set online for the first time.

sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuild
What I realized recently is that calling rebuild_sched_domains() in
arch_reinit_sched_domains() by itself is not enough when cpusets are enabled.
partition_sched_domains() code is trying to avoid unnecessary domain rebuilds
and will not actually rebuild anything if new domain masks match the old ones.
What this means is that doing
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings

in the cpuset setup (ie new sets created or deleted).
This patch fixes restore correct behaviour where domains must be rebuilt in
order to enable MC powersaving flags.

x86: move mtrr cpu cap setting early in early_init_xxxx
Krzysztof Helt found MTRR is not detected on k6-2
root cause:
we moved mtrr_bp_init() early for mtrr trimming,
and in early_detect we only read the CPU capability from cpuid,
so some cpu doesn't have that bit in cpuid.
So we need to add early_init_xxxx to preset those bit before mtrr_bp_init
for those earlier cpus.

The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports (
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the
current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic
timer behaviour. To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by
doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.
clocksource, acpi_pm.c: use proper read function also in errata mode
On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a
hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the
ACPI PMTMR fails. On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value
at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while
(i.e. within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus
result. During normal operation we work around this issue, but during
initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the
hardware is usable.
ntp: fix calculation of the next jiffie to trigger RTC sync
We have a bug in the calculation of the next jiffie to trigger the RTC
synchronisation. The aim here is to run sync_cmos_clock() as close as
possible to the middle of a second. Which means we want this function to
be called less than or equal to half a jiffie away from when now.tv_nsec
equals 5e8 (500000000).
If this is not the case for a given call to the function, for this purpose
instead of updating the RTC we calculate the offset in nanoseconds to the
next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be equal 5e8. The calculated
offset is then converted to jiffies as these are the unit used by the
timer.
Hovewer timespec_to_jiffies() used here uses a ceil()-type rounding mode,
where the resulting value is rounded up. As a result the range of
now.tv_nsec when the timer will trigger is from 5e8 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC
rather than the desired 5e8 - TICK_NSEC / 2 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2.
As a result if for example sync_cmos_clock() happens to be called at the
time when now.tv_nsec is between 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2 and 5e8 to 5e8 +
TICK_NSEC, it will simply be rescheduled HZ jiffies later, falling in the
same range of now.tv_nsec again. Similarly for cases offsetted by an
integer multiple of TICK_NSEC.
This change addresses the problem by subtracting TICK_NSEC / 2 from the
nanosecond offset to the next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be
equal 5e8, effectively shifting the following rounding in
timespec_to_jiffies() so that it produces a rounded-to-nearest result.

This patch provides an ARM implementation of ioremap_wc().
We use different page table attributes depending on which CPU we
are running on:
- Non-XScale ARMv5 and earlier systems: The ARMv5 ARM documents four
possible mapping types (CB=00/01/10/11). We can't use any of the
cached memory types (CB=10/11), since that breaks coherency with
peripheral devices. Both CB=00 and CB=01 are suitable for _wc, and
CB=01 (Uncached/Buffered) allows the hardware more freedom than
CB=00, so we'll use that.
(The ARMv5 ARM seems to suggest that CB=01 is allowed to delay stores
but isn't allowed to merge them, but there is no other mapping type
we can use that allows the hardware to delay and merge stores, so
we'll go with CB=01.)
- XScale v1/v2 (ARMv5): same as the ARMv5 case above, with the slight
difference that on these platforms, CB=01 actually _does_ allow
merging stores. (If you want noncoalescing bufferable behavior
on Xscale v1/v2, you need to use XCB=101.)
- Xscale v3 (ARMv5) and ARMv6+: on these systems, we use TEXCB=00100
mappings (Inner/Outer Uncacheable in xsc3 parlance, Uncached Normal
in ARMv6 parlance).
The ARMv6 ARM explicitly says that any accesses to Normal memory can
be merged, which makes Normal memory more suitable for _wc mappings
than Device or Strongly Ordered memory, as the latter two mapping
types are guaranteed to maintain transaction number, size and order.
We use the Uncached variety of Normal mappings for the same reason
that we can't use C=1 mappings on ARMv5.
The xsc3 Architecture Specification documents TEXCB=00100 as being
Uncacheable and allowing coalescing of writes, which is also just
what we need.

are enabled and caused WARN_ON messages. This changeset introduces

additional CPUs) are enabled to avoid this problem.
