Most HID drivers do not need to know what bus driver is in use.
A generic group driver can drive any hid device, and the device
list should not need to be duplicated for each new bus.
This patch adds wildcard matching to the HID bus, simplifying device
list handling for group drivers.

HID devices are only partially presented to userland. Hotplugged
devices emit events containing a modalias based on the basic bus,
vendor and product entities. However, in practise a hid device can
depend on details such as a single usb interface or a particular item
in a report descriptor.
This patch adds a device group to the hid device id, and broadcasts it
using uevent and the device modalias. The module alias generation is
modified to match. As a consequence, a device with a non-zero group
will be processed by the corresponding group driver instead of by the
generic hid driver.

- Latest patch set for LZO applied
This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel. LZ4 is a
very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely
fast decoder [1].
But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does
arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones? This issue
had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2].
Russell King said that we should have:
- one decompressor which is the fastest
- one decompressor for the highest compression ratio
- one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip)
If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly
that: replace it.
The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase
in decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the
fastest decompressor in the Kernel). Therefore the "fast but may not be
small" compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

lz4 de/compression through crypto API as well. Also, It will be useful
for another potential user of lz4 compression.

Two APIs are added:
lz4_compress() support basic lz4 compression whereas lz4hc_compress()
support high compression or CPU performance get lower but compression
ratio get higher. Also, we require the pre-allocated working memory with
the defined size and destination buffer must be allocated with the size of
lz4_compressbound.

The only in-kernel user of this function is the zram code, which only

function, it's better to be safe here.

Software security is an important issue, in general, but it is
especially important in Linux kernel code. Buffer overflows can have
wide-reaching ramifications and can often be readily exploited to
compromise the entire system. It is important for every developer to
be aware of security issues while writing code.
However, I've noticed a few "rules" about coding that are resulting in
code that isn't any more secure, and has the disadvantage of obscuring
what the code is doing. In most instances, the "corrected" code is
actually wrong: we've traded a perceived lack of safety for incorrect
behavior. These obfuscations also make this code more distant from
upstream kernel standards.
I'm only going to focus here on strcmp/strncmp and strlen/strnlen. I
choose these two, because in the context of the kernel, it's not easy
to make a general rule, such as "always use the 'n' variant". These
function have different behavior, and the 'n' isn't just a blanket fix
that makes them better. In many instances, the correct call is the
plain variant (strcpy has a strlcpy variant which is usually helpful).
Let's start with strlen/strnlen.
size_t strlen(const char *);
size_t strnlen(const char *, size_t);
The strlen() function scans for a NUL byte within a string, and
returns the number of characters that had to be skipped to get there.
The strnlen() call is similar, but will stop after after a maximal
number of characters, and return that result. This variant was
intended for storing variable length strings in fixed-sized buffers,
where the full-length case did not have a trailing NUL. This storage
model is very uncommon, as is the use of strnlen().
The question becomes, what is the maximal length you should be giving
to strnlen(). If the string is truly variable length (allocated and
filled), there really isn't a meaningful value to use for this. The
only time that a max length makes sense is when you have something
like:
char name[MAX_NAME_LENGTH];
but, in this case, strnlen() is still probably not what you want to be
using. It would be safe to use, if you check the result, and if it is
MAX_NAME_LENGTH, raise some kind of error case. If later code assumes
there is a NUL at the end, there will still be a buffer overflow. In
this case, it is much better to check the length before storing it in
this field, and make sure there is room for the NUL.
If the string is a constant, passing in a length doesn't make sense,
since you would have to know the length of the string to check that.
There is no safety issue with calling strlen() on a constant.
So, the simple rule for strnlen()/strlen() is:
- If the string doesn't have an obvious bound length, such as an
allocated string, use strlen().
- If the string is a constant, use strlen().
- If there is a fixed buffer, strnlen() might make sense, but it is
probably better to change the design to avoid these types of
strings.
The only case where strnlen really makes sense is when you have a
string that is passed in from the user. In this case, it is very
important to check the result, and if the length is at the maximum,
return an error, and don't try to do any processing on the string.
Moving on to strcmp/strncmp. These functions are similar, except that
they take two string arguments, which gives a lot more combinations.
int strcmp(const char *, const char *);
int strncmp(const char *, const char *, size_t);
These will walk both strings (at the same time), and stop when
reaching the first difference between them. This means that they will
never go further than the length of the shortest string being
compared. As in strnlen, the max argument to strncmp sets a limit on
the comparison. Similar to strnlen, the results are unusual when the
limit is reached, but in a sense, even worse, since it may consider
the strings equal without ever reaching the end of either.
Looking over the 200 some uses of strncmp in the msm code, almost all
of them do something akin to:
strncmp(value, constant, strlen(constant))
If the call has added 1 to the 'strlen' result, the strncmp would just
become an inefficient, but otherwise identical version of strcmp.
However, without the +1, this compares the prefix of 'value' instead
of the entire string. Only one instance of strncmp in the code
appears to be intentionally checking for a prefix. The rest have
changed a simple string compare into an unintentional prefix match.
Because there are two strings, it is a little more complex to
determine which to use, but it is very similar. It might seem that
strncmp() would be useful for checking an unknown buffer (say from
userspace). However, since strncmp()'s result doesn't distinguish
between finding the end of the string, or hitting the max, there's no
way to know. Some guidelines:
- If one of the strings has a known bound length (such as a
constant, or another string whose length has already been
checked), AND this bound length is within the expected buffer of
the other string, it is safe to use strcmp().
- Otherwise, you may need to use something like strnlen() to
determine a maximum length before calling strcmp().
- strncmp() is useful to test a string for a prefix. No other uses
make sense.
To facilitate fixing these, remove strlen(), strcmp(), and
strcasecmp() from the list of calls that are banned. Problems with
these calls need to be caught at a higher level (such as review), and
replacing them with the 'n' variants doesn't help anything.
This will be followed by some patches that fixup the incorrect code
introduced by this "ban".

The write packing control will ensure that read requests latency is
not increased due to long write packed commands.
The trigger for enabling the write packing is managing to pack several
write requests. The number of potential packed requests that will trigger
the packing can be configured via sysfs by writing the required value to:
/sys/block/<block_dev_name>/num_wr_reqs_to_start_packing.
The trigger for disabling the write packing is fetching a read request.

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
produces bad kernels. ]

It turns out that many compilers don't show section warnings on ARM
currently because handling for ARM_CALL relocs are missing from
modpost.c.
Based on commit c2e26114 ([ARM] 3205/1: Handle new EABI relocations when
loading kernel modules) it seems that R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL and
R_ARM_JUMP24 can be handled the same way.
Note that at least Debian libc6-dev is missing defines for both
R_ARM_CALL and R_ARM_JUMP24 in /usr/include/elf.h. So for now
we need to define them in modpost.c if not defined.

The BCJ filters were meant to be enabled already on these
archs, but the xz_wrap.sh script was buggy. Enabling the
filters should give smaller kernel images.
xz_wrap.sh will now use $SRCARCH instead of $ARCH to detect
the architecture. That way it doesn't need to care about the
subarchs (like i386 vs. x86_64) since the BCJ filters don't
care either.

The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names
like:
_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table
They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18. This
matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the
length did not meet the device type's criteria.
--------------------
FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18.
Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
--------------------
These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and
not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table
validation code.
So skip the symbol if it is not of type STT_OBJECT.

Commit f02e8a6596 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols
placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging
into the canonical sections are done by the linker.
Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o
(which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't
linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks
modpost that can't detect license properly for modules.
This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure.
[ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the
problem, copied from commit 62a2635610 ("modpost: Fix modpost's
license checking V3"). That commit fixed the problem for module
object files, but not for vmlinux.o. This patch fixes modpost for
vmlinux.o. ]
