00362b9ade regulator: Specify REGULATOR_CHANGE_STATUS for WM835x LED constraints
commit a2fad9bf26 upstream.

The WM8350 LED driver needs to be able to enable and disable the
regulators it is using. Previously the core wasn't properly enforcing
status change constraints so the driver was able to function but this
has always been intended to be required.

commit 17740d8978 upstream.

Don't pass current RLIMIT_RTTIME to update_rlimit_cpu() in
selinux_bprm_committing_creds, since update_rlimit_cpu expects
RLIMIT_CPU limit.

Use proper rlim[RLIMIT_CPU].rlim_cur instead to fix that.

80569f607b firewire: core: add_descriptor size check
Backport of commit e300839da4 upstream.

Presently, firewire-core only checks whether descriptors that are to be
added by userspace drivers to the local node's config ROM do not exceed
a size of 256 quadlets.  However, the sum of the bare minimum ROM plus
all descriptors (from firewire-core, from firewire-net, from userspace)
must not exceed 256 quadlets.

Otherwise, the bounds of a statically allocated buffer will be
overwritten.  If the kernel survives that, firewire-core will
subsequently be unable to parse the local node's config ROM.

(Note, userspace drivers can add descriptors only through device files
of local nodes.  These are usually only accessible by root, unlike
device files of remote nodes which may be accessible to lesser
privileged users.)

Therefore add a test which takes the actual present and required ROM
size into account for all descriptors of kernelspace and userspace
drivers.

612e99b2d1 drm/i915: only enable hotplug for detected outputs
commit b01f2c3a4a upstream.

This patch changes around our hotplug enable code a bit to only enable
it for ports we actually detect and initialize.  This prevents problems
with stuck or spurious interrupts on outputs that aren't actually wired
up, and is generally more correct.

Fixes FDO bug #23183.

69bf9a60ba iwlwifi: set default aggregation frame count limit to 31
commit 4d80d7210b upstream.

Multiple MPDUs can be aggregated, transmitted, and finally acknowledged
together using a single BA frame. Block ACK (BA) contains
bitmap size of 64*16 bits so the maximum frame count is 64.
The default value of aggregation frame count suggested by uCode is 31 to
achieve best performance.

5e806e1c71 x86: get rid of the insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit
commit 05d43ed8a8 upstream.

Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality
setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries.
And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go
away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing
for a 32-bit compat process.

Everything becomes much more straightforward this way.

336ca4cc1f Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functions
commit 221af7f87b upstream.

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed.  It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.

Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.

As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.

This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()).  All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.

944a638b7b FDPIC: Respect PT_GNU_STACK exec protection markings when creating NOMMU stack
commit 04e4f2b18c upstream.

The current code will load the stack size and protection markings, but
then only use the markings in the MMU code path.  The NOMMU code path
always passes PROT_EXEC to the mmap() call.  While this doesn't matter
to most people whilst the code is running, it will cause a pointless
icache flush when starting every FDPIC application.  Typically this
icache flush will be of a region on the order of 128KB in size, or may
be the entire icache, depending on the facilities available on the CPU.

In the case where the arch default behaviour seems to be desired
(EXSTACK_DEFAULT), we probe VM_STACK_FLAGS for VM_EXEC to determine
whether we should be setting PROT_EXEC or not.

For arches that support an MPU (Memory Protection Unit - an MMU without
the virtual mapping capability), setting PROT_EXEC or not will make an
important difference.

It should be noted that this change also affects the executability of
the brk region, since ELF-FDPIC has that share with the stack.  However,
this is probably irrelevant as NOMMU programs aren't likely to use the
brk region, preferring instead allocation via mmap().

0b3bf81197 mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swapping
commit a7016235a6 upstream.

After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's
5f8dcc2121 "page-allocator: split per-cpu
list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE
pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves.

Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads
of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is
already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it.

How did this bug show up?  As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild
swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator.  Bisecting to that
commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy.

The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even
less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones
than x86, I think that may be a factor).  We guess that lumpy reclaim
of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably
this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim.

But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and
imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up
the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

Error handling in that sucker got broken back in 2003.  If function
returns 0 on failure, it's not nice to add return -EINVAL into it.
Adding return 1 on other failure exits is also not a good thing (and
yes, original success exits with 1 and some of failure exits with 0
are still there; so's the original logics in callers).

f0b4195748 e1000/e1000e: don't use small hardware rx buffers
commit 9926146b15 upstream.

When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e)
patches we found some bugs with reducing the MTU size.  The 1024 byte
descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the
(originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq
"enhance frame fragment detection" fix.

So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu <
1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e.
So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but
is not vulnerable to the original issue reported.  It has been pointed
out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that
don't have the e1000 jumbo routine.  Without the jumbo routines, we
need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old
e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar
fix.  We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths.

There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the
original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so
please apply both, even though it is a bit of overkill.

e1000e could with a jumbo frame enabled interface, and packet split disabled,
receive a packet that would overflow a single rx buffer.  While in practice
very hard to craft a packet that could abuse this, it is possible.

dff2267e0c e1000: enhance frame fragment detection
commit 40a14deaf4 upstream.

Originally From: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com>
Modified by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>

Hey all-
	A security discussion was recently given:
http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html
And a patch that I submitted awhile back was brought up.  Apparently some of
their testing revealed that they were able to force a buffer fragment in e1000
in which the trailing fragment was greater than 4 bytes.  As a result the
fragment check I introduced failed to detect the fragement and a partial
invalid frame was passed up into the network stack.  I've written this patch
to correct it.  I'm in the process of testing it now, but it makes good
logical sense to me.  Effectively it maintains a per-adapter state variable
which detects a non-EOP frame, and discards it and subsequent non-EOP frames
leading up to _and_ _including_ the next positive-EOP frame (as it is by
definition the last fragment).  This should prevent any and all partial frames
from entering the network stack from e1000.
