* send_sigio_to_task: sanitize the usage of fown->signumOleg Nesterov2009-06-161-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | send_sigio_to_task() reads fown->signum several times, we can race with F_SETSIG which changes ->signum lockless. In theory, this can fool security checks or we can call group_send_sig_info() with the wrong ->si_signo which does not match "int sig". Change the code to cache ->signum.

| * firewire: core: use more outbound tlabelsStefan Richter2009-06-142-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tlabel is a 6 bits wide datum. Wrap it after 63 rather than 31 for more safety against transaction label exhaustion and potential responders' transaction layer bugs. (As noted by Guus Sliepen, this change requires an expansion of tlabel_mask to 64 bits.) Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
| * firewire: core: don't update Broadcast_Channel if RFC 2734 conditions aren't metStefan Richter2009-06-142-1/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This extra check will avoid Broadcast_Channel register related traffic to many IIDC, SBP-2, and AV/C devices which aren't IRMC or have a max_rec < 8 (i.e. support < 512 bytes async payload). This avoids a little bit of traffic after bus reset and is even more careful with devices which don't implement this CSR. The assumption is that no other protocol than IP over 1394 uses the broadcast channel for streams. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
| * firewire: core: prepare for non-core children of card devicesStefan Richter2009-06-063-12/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IP-over-1394 driver will add child devices beneath card devices which are not of type fw_device. Hence firewire-core's callbacks in device_for_each_child() and device_find_child() need to check for the device type now. Initial version written by Jay Fenlason.

| * firewire: rename source filesStefan Richter2009-06-059-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The source files of firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, i.e. "drivers/firewire/fw-*.c" are renamed to "drivers/firewire/core-*.c", "drivers/firewire/ohci.c", "drivers/firewire/sbp2.c". The old fw- prefix was redundant to the directory name. The new core- prefix distinguishes the files according to which driver they belong to. This change comes a little late, but still before further firewire drivers are added as anticipated RSN. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
| * firewire: reorganize header filesStefan Richter2009-06-0514-737/+676

The latter includes everything which a firewire high-level driver (like firewire-sbp2) needs besides linux/firewire-constants.h, while core.h contains the rest which is needed by firewire-core itself and by low- level drivers (card drivers) like firewire-ohci. High-level drivers can now also reside outside of drivers/firewire without having to add drivers/firewire to the header file search path in makefiles. At least the firedtv driver will be such a driver. I also considered to spread the contents of core.h over several files, one for each .c file where the respective implementation resides. But it turned out that most core .c files will end up including most of the core .h files. Also, the combined core.h isn't unreasonably big, and it will lose more of its contents to linux/firewire.h anyway soon when more firewire drivers are added. (IP-over-1394, firedtv, and there are plans for one or two more.) Furthermore, fw-ohci.h is renamed to ohci.h. The name of core.h and ohci.h is chosen with regard to name changes of the .c files in a follow-up change. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the unlikely event that card->driver->get_bus_time() is called during a cycle64Seconds interrupt, we could read garbage unless atomic accesses are used. The switch to atomic ops requires to change the 64 seconds counter from unsigned to signed, but this shouldn't matter to the end result. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

| * firewire: core: add sysfs attribute for easier udev rulesStefan Richter2009-06-012-1/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the attribute /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw[0-9]+/units. It can be used in udev rules like the following ones: # IIDC devices: industrial cameras and some webcams SUBSYSTEM=="firewire", ATTR{units}=="*0x00a02d:0x00010?*", GROUP="video" # AV/C devices: camcorders, set-top boxes, TV sets, audio devices, ... SUBSYSTEM=="firewire", ATTR{units}=="*0x00a02d:0x010001*", GROUP="video" Background: firewire-core manages two device types: - fw_device is a FireWire node. A character device file is associated with it. - fw_unit is a unit directory on a node. Each fw_device may have 0..n children of type fw_unit. The units tell us what kinds of protocols a node implements. We want to set ownership or ACLs or permissions of the character device file of an fw_device, or/and create symlinks to it, based on available protocols. Until now udev rules had to look at the fw_unit devices and then modify their parent's character device file accordingly. This is problematic for two reasons: 1) It happens sometime after the creation of the fw_device, 2) an access policy may require that information from all children is evaluated before a decision about the parent is made. Problem 1) can ultimately not be avoided since this is the nature of FireWire nodes: They may add or remove unit directories at any point in time. However, we can still help userland a lot by providing the protocol type information of all units in a summary sysfs attribute directly at the fw_device. This way, - the information is immediately available at the affected device when userspace goes about to handle an ADD or CHANGE event of the fw_device, - with most policies, it won't be necessary anymore to dig through child attributes. The new attribute is called "units". It contains space-separated tuples of specifier_id and version of each present unit. The delimiter within tuples is a colon. Specifier_id and version are printed as 0x%06x. Here is an example of a node which implements an IPv4 unit and an IPv6 unit: $ cat /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw2/units 0x00005e:0x000001 0x00005e:0x000002 Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
| * firewire: core: check for missing struct update at build time, not run timeStefan Richter2009-06-011-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct fw_attribute_group.attrs.[] must have enough room for all attributes. This can and should be checked at build time. Our previous check at run time was a little late and not reliable since most of the time less than the available attributes are populated. Furthermore, omit an increment of an index at its last usage. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
| * firewire: core: improve check for local nodeStefan Richter2009-05-173-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My recently added test for a device being local in fw-cdev.c got it slightly wrong: Comparisons of node IDs are only valid if the generation is current, which I forgot to check. Normally, serialization by card->lock takes care of this, but a device in FW_DEVICE_GONE state will necessarily have a wrong generation and invalid node_id. The "is it local?" check is made 100% correct and simpler now by means of a struct fw_device flag which is set at fw_device creation. Besides the fw-cdev site which was to be fixed, there is another site which can make use of the new flag, and an RFC-2734 driver will benefit from it too.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Shift current_cred() from __f_setown() to f_modown(). This reduces the number of arguments and saves 48 bytes from fs/fcntl.o. [ Note: this doesn't clear euid/uid when pid is set to NULL. But if f_owner.pid == NULL we never use f_owner.uid/euid.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This false positive is due to field padding in struct sigqueue. When this dynamically allocated structure is copied to the stack (in arch- specific delivery code), kmemcheck sees a read from the padding, which is, naturally, uninitialized.

Tell kmemcheck to allocate the shadow memory which stores the status of each byte in the allocation proper, e.g. whether it is initialized or uninitialized. 2. Tell kmemcheck which parts of memory that should be marked uninitialized. There are actually a few more states, such as "not yet allocated" and "recently freed". If a slab cache is set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, it will never return memory that can take page faults because of kmemcheck. If a slab cache is NOT set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, callers can still request memory with the __GFP_NOTRACK flag. This does not prevent the page faults from occuring, however, but marks the object in question as being initialized so that no warnings will ever be produced for this object. In addition to (and in contrast to) __GFP_NOTRACK, the __GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag indicates that the allocation should not be tracked _because_ it would produce a false positive. Their values are identical, but need not be so in the future (for example, we could now enable/disable false positives with a config option).

(Thanks to Pekka Enberg for minimizing the impact on the page fault handler.) As kmemcheck doesn't handle MMX/SSE instructions (yet), we also disable the optimized xor code, and rely instead on the generic C implementation in order to avoid false-positive warnings.
