2011-07-18evm: re-releaseMimi Zohar
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 Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com>

2011-07-08USB: EHCI: Allow users to override 80% max periodic bandwidthKirill Smelkov
There are cases, when 80% max isochronous bandwidth is too limiting. For example I have two USB video capture cards which stream uncompressed video, and to stream full NTSC + PAL videos we'd need NTSC 640x480 YUV422 @30fps ~17.6 MB/s PAL 720x576 YUV422 @25fps ~19.7 MB/s isoc bandwidth. Now, due to limited alt settings in capture devices NTSC one ends up streaming with max_pkt_size=2688 and PAL with max_pkt_size=2892, both with interval=1. In terms of microframe time allocation this gives NTSC ~53us PAL ~57us and together ~110us > 100us == 80% of 125us uframe time. So those two devices can't work together simultaneously because the'd over allocate isochronous bandwidth. 80% seemed a bit arbitrary to me, and I've tried to raise it to 90% and both devices started to work together, so I though sometimes it would be a good idea for users to override hardcoded default of max 80% isoc bandwidth. After all, isn't it a user who should decide how to load the bus? If I can live with 10% or even 5% bulk bandwidth that should be ok. I'm a USB newcomer, but that 80% set in stone by USB 2.0 specification seems to be chosen pretty arbitrary to me, just to serve as a reasonable default. NOTE 1 ~~~~~~ for two streams with max_pkt_size=3072 (worst case) both time allocation would be 60us+60us=120us which is 96% periodic bandwidth leaving 4% for bulk and control. Alan Stern suggested that bulk then would be problematic (less than 300*8 bittimes left per microframe), but I think that is still enough for control traffic. NOTE 2 ~~~~~~ Sarah Sharp expressed concern that maxing out periodic bandwidth could lead to vendor-specific hardware bugs on host controllers, because > It's entirely possible that you'll run into > vendor-specific bugs if you try to pack the schedule with isochronous > transfers. I don't think any hardware designer would seriously test or > validate their hardware with a schedule that is basically a violation of > the USB bus spec (more than 80% for periodic transfers). So far I've only tested this patch on my HP Mini 5103 with N10 chipset kirr@mini:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation N10 Family DMI Bridge 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family PCI Express Port 1 (rev 02) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family PCI Express Port 4 (rev 02) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 02) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 02) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 02) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 02) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 02) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev e2) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation NM10 Family LPC Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation N10/ICH7 Family SATA AHCI Controller (rev 02) 01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8059 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 11) and the system works stable with 110us/uframe (~88%) isoc bandwith allocated for above-mentioned isochronous transfers. NOTE 3 ~~~~~~ This feature is off by default. I mean max periodic bandwidth is set to 100us/uframe by default exactly as it was before the patch. So only those of us who need the extreme settings are taking the risk - normal users who do not alter uframe_periodic_max sysfs attribute should not see any change at all. NOTE 4 ~~~~~~ I've tried to update documentation in Documentation/ABI/ thoroughly, but only "TBD" was put into Documentation/usb/ehci.txt -- the text there seems to be outdated and much needing refreshing, before it could be amended.

2011-05-26mm/fs: cleancache documentationDan Magenheimer
This patchset introduces cleancache, an optional new feature exposed by the VFS layer that potentially dramatically increases page cache effectiveness for many workloads in many environments at a negligible cost. It does this by providing an interface to transcendent memory, which is memory/storage that is not otherwise visible to and/or directly addressable by the kernel. Instead of being discarded, hooks in the reclaim code "put" clean pages to cleancache. Filesystems that "opt-in" may "get" pages from cleancache that were previously put, but pages in cleancache are "ephemeral", meaning they may disappear at any time. And the size of cleancache is entirely dynamic and unknowable to the kernel. Filesystems currently supported by this patchset include ext3, ext4, btrfs, and ocfs2. Other filesystems (especially those built entirely on VFS) should be easy to add, but should first be thoroughly tested to ensure coherency. Details and a FAQ are provided in Documentation/vm/cleancache.txt This first patch of eight in this cleancache series only adds two new documentation files.

2011-05-23ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.Richard Cochran
This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is presented as a standard POSIX clock. The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via the sysfs and by a character device.

2011-05-21PCI: add rescan to /sys/.../pci_bus/.../Yinghai Lu
After remove the device from /sys, we have to rescan all or find out the bridge and access /sys../device/rescan there. this patch add /sys/.../pci_bus/.../rescan. So user can rescan more easy. that is more clean and easy to understand. like after remove 0000:c4:00.0, you can rescan 0000:c4 directly. -v2: According to Jesse, use function instead of exposing attr, so could hide #ifdef in header file. also add code to remove rescan file in remove path. -v3: GregKH pointed out that we should use dev_attrs to avoid racing. So add pcibus_attrs and make it to be member of pcibus_attrs. -v4: Change name to pcibus_dev_attrs according to GregKH Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

startup_profile and actual_profile didn't work as expected. Also as the actual profile is persistent, the distinction between the two was ambiguous, so both use the same code now and startup_profile has been deprecated. Also the event is now propagated through chardev. The userland tool has been updated to support this change.

2011-05-17PM / Hibernate: Add sysfs knob to control size of memory for driversRafael J. Wysocki
Martin reports that on his system hibernation occasionally fails due to the lack of memory, because the radeon driver apparently allocates too much of it during the device freeze stage. It turns out that the amount of memory allocated by radeon during hibernation (and presumably during system suspend too) depends on the utilization of the GPU (e.g. hibernating while there are two KDE 4 sessions with compositing enabled causes radeon to allocate more memory than for one KDE 4 session). In principle it should be possible to use image_size to make the memory preallocation mechanism free enough memory for the radeon driver, but in practice it is not easy to guess the right value because of the way the preallocation code uses image_size. For this reason, it seems reasonable to allow users to control the amount of memory reserved for driver allocations made after the hibernate preallocation, which currently is constant and amounts to 1 MB. Introduce a new sysfs file, /sys/power/reserved_size, whose value will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for the post-preallocation reservations made by device drivers, in bytes. For backwards compatibility, set its default (and initial) value to the currently used number (1 MB).

2011-05-10bcma: add Broadcom specific AMBA bus driverRafał Miłecki
Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean. In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct initialization. Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e). Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to 80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO used for accessing cores on the bus.

2011-04-29driver: Google Memory ConsoleMike Waychison
This patch introduces the 'memconsole' driver. Our firmware gives us access to an in-memory log of the firmware's output. This gives us visibility in a data-center of headless machines as to what the firmware is doing. The memory console is found by the driver by finding a header block in the EBDA. The buffer is then copied out, and is exported to userland in the file /sys/firmware/log.

2011-04-29driver: Google EFI SMIMike Waychison
The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for accessing hardware. Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information. Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used. This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various limitations over time, but all are included herein. This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM strings of the FADT ACPI table. This logic happens in gsmi_system_valid().
