<id>12176503366885edd542389eed3aaf94be163fdb</id>
<content type='text'>
The compat ioctl for VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE was missing an error check
while converting ioctl arguments.  This could lead to leaking kernel
stack contents into userspace.

Patch extracted from existing fix in grsecurity.

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (72 commits)
  MAX_LFS_FILESIZE should be a loff_t
  compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile implementation
  fs: push rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() to filesystems
  btrfs: reada_extent doesn't need kref for refcount
  coredump: move core dump functionality into its own file
  coredump: prevent double-free on an error path in core dumper
  usb/gadget: fix misannotations
  fcntl: fix misannotations
  ceph: don't abuse d_delete() on failure exits
  hypfs: -&gt;d_parent is never NULL or negative
  vfs: delete surplus inode NULL check
  switch simple cases of fget_light to fdget
  new helpers: fdget()/fdput()
  switch o2hb_region_dev_write() to fget_light()
  proc_map_files_readdir(): don't bother with grabbing files

<content type='text'>
Wrap the use of TIOCSRS485 and TIOCGRS485 in #ifdef so that we avoid
adding undefined IOCTLs to the ioctl pointer list as compatible
ioctls.

This change was motivated by a build error on a MIPS build.

The RS-485 TIOCSRS485 and TIOCGRS485 ioctls are 32-bit compatible, so
in order to call them on 64-bit systems from 32-bit user mode, we add
them to the ioctl pointer list as compatible ioctls.

Allow handling of Unicode compose sequences by 32-bit apps on a 64-bit
system.  The issue has been reported in &lt;http://bugs.debian.org/540534&gt;
and &lt;http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/kbd/2009-December/000235.html&gt;.

A formal check of the two affected ioctls in drivers/char/vt_ioctl.c
(introduced in 04c71976) and a test using x86 kbd 1.15.1 on a so patched
x86_64 kernel both confirm that KD[GS]KBDIACRUC are ioctl32()
compatible.

Pull cleanup of fs/ and lib/ users of module.h from Paul Gortmaker:
 "Fix up files in fs/ and lib/ dirs to only use module.h if they really
  need it.

  These are trivial in scope vs the work done previously.  We now have
  things where any few remaining cleanups can be farmed out to arch or
  subsystem maintainers, and I have done so when possible.  What is
  remaining here represents the bits that don't clearly lie within a
  single arch/subsystem boundary, like the fs dir and the lib dir.

  Some duplicate includes arising from overlapping fixes from
  independent subsystem maintainer submissions are also quashed."

Fix up trivial conflicts due to clashes with other include file cleanups
(including some due to the previous bug.h cleanup pull).

Since all that include/linux/if_ppp.h does is #include &lt;linux/ppp-ioctl.h&gt;,
this replaces the occurrences of #include &lt;linux/if_ppp.h&gt; with
#include &lt;linux/ppp-ioctl.h&gt;.

It also corrects an error in Documentation/networking/l2tp.txt, where
it referenced include/linux/if_ppp.h as the source of some definitions
that are actually now defined in include/linux/if_pppol2tp.h.

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map
them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even
using those, then just delete the include.  Fix up any implicit
include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along
the way.
