* fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman2013-03-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GF13 can be only used in the following case: The ECC data chunk is less then 1K bytes. In mx23/mx28, the ecc data chunk is 512 bytes. So it is okay. But in mx6q, we begin to use some large nand chip whose ecc data chunk maybe 1K bytes long. So when the data chunk is 1K bytes, we have to use the GF14. This patch sets the Golois Field bit when the GF14 is needed.

| * mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: Support Persistent Protection Bits (PPB) lockingStefan Roese2013-02-042-0/+218
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently cfi_cmdset_0002.c does not support PPB locking of sectors. This patch adds support for this locking/unlocking mechanism. It is needed on some platforms, since newer U-Boot versions do support this PPB locking and protect for example their environment sector(s) this way. This PPB locking/unlocking will be enabled for all devices supported by cfi_cmdset_0002 reporting 8 in the CFI word 0x49 (Sector Protect/Unprotect scheme). Please note that PPB locking does support sector-by-sector locking. But the whole chip can only be unlocked together. So unlocking one sector will automatically unlock all sectors of this device. Because of this chip limitation, the PPB unlocking function saves the current locking status of all sectors before unlocking the whole device. After unlocking the saved locking status is re-configured. This way only the addressed sectors will be unlocked. To selectively enable this advanced sector protection mechanism, the device-tree property "use-advanced-sector-protection" has been created. To enable support for this locking this property needs to be present in the flash DT node. E.g.: nor_flash@0,0 { compatible = "amd,s29gl256n", "cfi-flash"; bank-width = <2>; use-advanced-sector-protection; ... Tested with Spansion S29GL512S10THI and Micron JS28F512M29EWx flash devices.

ELM module functionality is verified by checking the availability of handle for ELM module in device tree. Hence supporting 1. ELM module available, BCH error correction done by ELM module. Also support read & write page in one shot by adding custom read_page and write_page methods. This helps in optimizing code for NAND flashes with page size less than 4 KB. 2. If ELM module not available fall back to software BCH error correction support. New structure member is added to omap_nand_info 1. "is_elm_used" to know the status of whether the ELM module is used for error correction or not. 2. "elm_dev" device pointer to elm device on detection of ELM module. Also being here update the device tree documentation of gpmc-nand for adding optional property elm_id. Note: ECC layout uses 1 extra bytes for 512 byte of data to handle erased pages. Extra byte programmed to zero for programmed pages. Also BCH8 requires 14 byte ecc to maintain compatibility with RBL ECC layout.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Decrement index i after skipping a zero sized partition. On next loop iteration, the index will be the same as before, but the data will be new as it was moved when earlier partition was skipped.

| * mtd: davinci_nand: fix modular build with CONFIG_OF=ySergei Shtylyov2013-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit cdeadd712f52b16a9285386d61ee26fd14eb4085 (mtd: nand: davinci: add OF support for davinci nand controller) has never been really build tested with the driver as a module. When the driver is built-in, the missing semicolon after structure initializer is "compensated" by MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro being empty and so the initializer using the trailing semicolon on the next line; when the driver is built as a module, compilation error ensues, and as the 'davinci_all_defconfig' has the NAND driver modular, this error prevents DaVinci family kernel from building...

The biggy in there is a whitespace cleanup. After I was sent another set of whitespace cleanup patches I decided it was the time to clean the whitespace "issues" for once and and that touches many files below arch/mips/. Fix up silly conflicts, mostly due to whitespace cleanups. * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: (105 commits) MIPS: Quit exporting kernel internel break codes to uapi/asm/break.h MIPS: remove broken conditional inside vpe loader code MIPS: SMTC: fix implicit declaration of set_vi_handler MIPS: early_printk: drop __init annotations MIPS: Probe for and report hardware virtualization support.
