security: Fix setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable()
Fix the setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable() as it could corrupt the flags
the target process if that is not the current process and it is trying to
change its own flags in a different way at the same time.
__capable() is using neither atomic ops nor locking to protect t->flags. This
patch removes __capable() and introduces has_capability() that doesn't set
PF_SUPERPRIV on the process being queried.
This patch further splits security_ptrace() in two:
(1) security_ptrace_may_access(). This passes judgement on whether one
process may access another only (PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH for ptrace() and
PTRACE_MODE_READ for /proc), and takes a pointer to the child process.
current is the parent.
(2) security_ptrace_traceme(). This passes judgement on PTRACE_TRACEME only,
and takes only a pointer to the parent process. current is the child.
In Smack and commoncap, this uses has_capability() to determine whether
the parent will be permitted to use PTRACE_ATTACH if normal checks fail.
This does not set PF_SUPERPRIV.
Two of the instances of __capable() actually only act on current, and so have
been changed to calls to capable().
Of the places that were using __capable():
(1) The OOM killer calls __capable() thrice when weighing the killability of a
process. All of these now use has_capability().
(2) cap_ptrace() and smack_ptrace() were using __capable() to check to see
whether the parent was allowed to trace any process. As mentioned above,
these have been split. For PTRACE_ATTACH and /proc, capable() is now
used, and for PTRACE_TRACEME, has_capability() is used.
(3) cap_safe_nice() only ever saw current, so now uses capable().
(4) smack_setprocattr() rejected accesses to tasks other than current just
after calling __capable(), so the order of these two tests have been
switched and capable() is used instead.
(5) In smack_file_send_sigiotask(), we need to allow privileged processes to
receive SIGIO on files they're manipulating.
(6) In smack_task_wait(), we let a process wait for a privileged process,
whether or not the process doing the waiting is privileged.

AMD SB700 based systems with spread spectrum enabled use a SMM based
HPET emulation to provide proper frequency setting. The SMM code is

complete. During this time the config register reads 0xffffffff. We
check for max. 1000 loops whether the config register reads a non

RX blockage: queue every RX packet until its contents can safely be
passed up to the ldisc. Most of the RX path work is now done in the
RX tasklet, instead of just the final "push to ldisc" step. This
addresses some cases of data loss:
- A longstanding serial gadget bug: when tty_insert_flip_string()
didn't copy the entire buffer, the rest of the characters were
dropped! Now that packet stays queued until the rest of its data
is pushed to the ldisc.
- Another longstanding issue: in the unlikely case that an RX
transfer returns data and also reports a fault, that data is
no longer discarded.
- In the recently added RX throttling logic: it needs to stop
pushing data into the TTY layer, instead of just not submitting
new USB read requests. When the TTY is throttled long enough,
backpressure will eventually make the OUT endpoint NAK.
Also: an #ifdef is removed (no longer necessary); and start switching
to a better convention for debug messages (prefix them with tty name).

easily.
Wrappers are introduced into a new header (linux/cred.h) for UID/GID,
EUID/EGID, SUID/SGID, FSUID/FSGID, cap_effective and current's subscribed
user_struct. These wrappers are macros because the ordering between header
files mitigates against making them inline functions.
linux/cred.h is #included from linux/sched.h.
Further, XFS is modified such that it no longer defines and uses parameterised
versions of current_fs[ug]id(), thus getting rid of the namespace collision
otherwise incurred.

netns: Fix crash by making igmp per namespace
This patch makes the multicast socket to be per namespace.
When a network namespace is created, other than the init_net and a
multicast packet is received, the kernel goes to a hang or a kernel panic.
How to reproduce ?
* create a child network namespace
* create a pair virtual device veth
* ip link add type veth
* move one side to the pair network device to the child namespace
* ip link set netns <childpid> dev veth1
* ping -I veth0 224.0.0.1
The bug appears because the function ip_mc_init_dev does not initialize
the different multicast fields as it exits because it is not the init_net.

bnx2x: Minor code improvements
Minor code improvements
Small changes to make the code a little bit more efficient and mostly
more readable:
- Using unified macros for EMAC_RD/WR which looks like normal REG_RD/WR
- Removing the NIG_WR since it did nothing and was only confusing
- On bnx2x_panic_dump, print only the used parts of the rings
- define parameters only on the branch they are needed and not at the
beginning of the function
- using NETIF_MSG_INTR and not private BNX2X_MSG_SP for debug prints

Link order with external PHY
When external PHY exists (second chip with the PHY to translate to
another physical medium) the link with the eternal PHY and the network
should be established before setting the link between the 5771x and the
PHY. This is the right order and it is important when using autoneg -
the link to the network should use the autoneg and the link between the
two chips should be forced to the network result.

Load/Unload under traffic
Few issues were found when loading and unloading under traffic:
- When receiving Tx interrupt call netif_wake_queue if the queue is
stopped but the state is open
- Check that interrupts are enabled before doing anything else on the
msix_fp_int function
- In nic_load, enable the interrupts only when needed and ready for it
- Function stop_leading returns status since it can fail
- Add 1ms delay when unloading the driver to validate that there are no
open transactions that already started by the FW
- Splitting the "has work" function into Tx and Rx so the same function
will be used on unload and interrupts
- Do not request for WoL if only resetting the device (save the time
that it takes the FW to set the link after reset)
- Fixing the device reset after iSCSI boot and before driver load - all
internal buffers must be cleared before the driver is loaded
