Fixes for deadlocks of the ieee1394 and scsi subsystems and long delays in futile error recovery attempts when SBP-2 devices are removed or drivers are unloaded. - Complete commands quickly with DID_NO_CONNECT if the 1394 node is gone or if the 1394 low-level driver was unloaded. - Skip unnecessary work in the eh_abort_handler and eh_device_reset_handler if the node or 1394 low-level driver is gone. - Let scsi's high-level shut down gracefully when sbp2 is being unloaded or detached from the 1394 unit. A call to scsi_remove_device is added for this purpose, which requires us to store a scsi_device pointer. - scsi_device pointer is obtained from slave_alloc hook and cleared by slave_destroy. This avoids usage of the pointer after the scsi device was deleted e.g. by the user via scsi_mod's sysfs interface.

This change removes a bogus error message from the IOC4 serial driver interrupt handler. This error message is bogus for two reasons. First, it can never occur given that current code takes care to initialize IOC4 in such a way that these "unknown" interrupts could never occur. Second, this code fails to take into account that other drivers can share the IOC4 interrupt mechanism through SA_SHIRQ, and thus this driver is not in-fact "all-knowing". Finally, this error message triggers every time some "unknown" interrupt occurs -- it's not rate limited or repetition limited in any way, thereby effectively denying use of the console device. Given its bogosity in the first place, it's best to just get rid of it entirely.

Check O_DIRECT and return -EINVAL error in open. dentry_open() also checks this but only after the open method is called. This patch optimizes away the unnecessary upcalls in this case. It could be a correctness issue too: if filesystem has open() with side effect, then it should fail before doing the open, not after.

Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't implemented here", but it still works fine. Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything. But hostfs_setattr() -> set_attr() correctly detects ATTR_SIZE and calls truncate() on the host. So we should be safe (using ftruncate() may be better, in case the file is unlinked on the host, but we aren't sure to have the file open for writing, and reopening it would cause the same races; plus nobody should expect UML to be so careful). So, the warning is wrong, because the current implementation is working. Al, am I correct, and can the warning be therefore dropped?

Revert commit 12ebcd73, i.e. [PATCH] uml: run mconsole "sysrq" in process context on request from Jeff Dike. a) sysrq may be run when the scheduler is non-functioning b) the warning I wanted to fix actually came from the fault handler run in atomic context. But I fixed that not to take the semaphore in a separate patch. c) the fault handler is run because of a fault, and that fault was unaffected by this patch.

I hadn't been running a SKAS3 host when testing the "uml: fix hang in TT mode on fault" patch (commit 546fe1cb), and I didn't think enough to the missing trap_no in SKAS3 mode. In fact, the resulting kernel doesn't work at all in SKAS3 mode.

Recently aio_p{read,write} changed to perform retries internally rather than returning -EIOCBRETRY. This inadvertantly resulted in always calling aio_{read,write} with ki_left at 0 which would in turn immediately return 0. Harmless, but we can avoid this call by checking in the caller.

Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list. The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY users, are updated.

Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick patch could set the Kicked bit before acquiring the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path, while holding the ctx_lock, could see this partial kick and mistake it for a kick that was deferred while it was doing work with the run_list NULLed out. It would then race with the kick thread to add the iocb to the run list. This patch moves the kick setting under the ctx_lock so that only one of the kick or run path queues the iocb on the run list, as intended.

The following patch updates the way SELinux classifies and handles IP based protocols. Currently, IP sockets are classified by SELinux as being either TCP, UDP or 'Raw', the latter being a default for IP socket that is not TCP or UDP. The classification code is out of date and uses only the socket type parameter to socket(2) to determine the class of IP socket. So, any socket created with SOCK_STREAM will be classified by SELinux as TCP, and SOCK_DGRAM as UDP. Also, other socket types such as SOCK_SEQPACKET and SOCK_DCCP are currently ignored by SELinux, which classifies them as generic sockets, which means they don't even get basic IP level checking. This patch changes the SELinux IP socket classification logic, so that only an IPPROTO_IP protocol value passed to socket(2) classify the socket as TCP or UDP. The patch also drops the check for SOCK_RAW and converts it into a default, so that socket types like SOCK_DCCP and SOCK_SEQPACKET are classified as SECCLASS_RAWIP_SOCKET (instead of generic sockets). Note that protocol-specific support for SCTP, DCCP etc. is not addressed here, we're just getting these protocols checked at the IP layer. This fixes a reported problem where SCTP sockets were being recognized as generic SELinux sockets yet still being passed in one case to an IP level check, which then fails for generic sockets. It will also fix bugs where any SOCK_STREAM socket is classified as TCP or any SOCK_DGRAM socket is classified as UDP. This patch also unifies the way IP sockets classes are determined in selinux_socket_bind(), so we use the already calculated value instead of trying to recalculate it.

I need the following patch to compile -git8 here, otherwise these files fail to compile (asm/hw_irq.h needs definitions from linux/irq.h and that file provides the required include ordering). I did not do a full audit, though there looks to be many other places that should get the same treatment, if this is the right way to do it. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

BUILD_BUG_ON(1) is asking for trouble (and getting it) when used in that manner - dead code elimination happens after we parse it and invalid type is invalid type, dead code or not.
