Add a keyctl op (KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE_IOV) that is like KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE, but
takes an iovec array and concatenates the data in-kernel into one buffer.
Since the KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE copies the data anyway, this isn't too much of a
problem.

Add a new keyctl op to reject a key with a specified error code. This works
much the same as negating a key, and so keyctl_negate_key() is made a special
case of keyctl_reject_key(). The difference is that keyctl_negate_key()
selects ENOKEY as the error to be reported.
Typically the key would be rejected with EKEYEXPIRED, EKEYREVOKED or
EKEYREJECTED, but this is not mandatory.

Add a key type operation to permit the key type to vet the description of a new
key that key_alloc() is about to allocate. The operation may reject the
description if it wishes with an error of its choosing. If it does this, the
key will not be allocated.

When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].
Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.
Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.
The buggy code was added in:
commit 4a2d789267e00b5a1175ecd2ddefcc78b83fbf09
Author: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com>
Date: Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100
Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]
This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <keyutils.h>
#include <err.h>
static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6";
int main()
{
key_serial_t key;
key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload),
KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING);
if (key == -1)
err(1, "add_key");
if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1)
err(1, "read_key");
return 0;
}
What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:
dns-break: read_key: No such device or address
but instead the kernel oopses.
This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.
The oops looks like:

Effectively, make group_isolation=1 the default and remove the tunable.
The setting group_isolation=0 was because by default we idle on
sync-noidle tree and on fast devices, this can be very harmful for
throughput.
However, this problem can also be addressed by tuning slice_idle and
possibly group_idle on faster storage devices.
This change simplifies the CFQ code by removing the feature entirely.

Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except
those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to
allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If
"threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no
impact in the interrupt hotpath.
Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after
marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All
interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked
IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded.
Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt
handling into thread context.
When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in
interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately
crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

This allows to load the OF driver based informations from the device
tree. Systems without BIOS may need to perform some initialization.
PowerPC creates a PNP device from the OF information and performs this
kind of initialization in their private PCI quirk. This looks more
generic.
This patch also avoids registering the platform RTC driver on X86 if
we have a device tree blob. Otherwise we would setup the device based
on the hardcoded information in arch/x86 rather than the device tree
based one.

History:
v1..v2:
- dropped device_type except for cpu & pci. I have the compatible string
for pci so I can drop the device_type once it is possible
- I lowercased all compatible types. I will need to resend some patches
which have upper case intel
- The cpu had the same compatible string as the soc node. So I added to
the soc node -immr for internel memory mapped registers.
- I added generic names for all parts.
- I reworked the i2c bars matching the way you suggested. I added a
compatible node for the PCI device which only the PCI ids in its
compatible string. The bars (each represents a complete i2c
controller) have a "intel,ce4100-i2c-controller" compatible node. It
is not used by the driver.
The driver is probed via PCI ids (by the pci subsystem not OF) and
matches the bar address against the ressource in the child node. Once
there is a hit the node is attached.
- The SPI driver is also probed via pci. However I also attached a
compatible property based on PCI ids
v2..v3:
- intel,ce4100-immr become intel,ce4100-cp. cp stands for core
peripherals. The Atom data sheet talks here about ACPI devices. Since
we don't have ACPI this does not apply here.
- The interrupt map is gone. There are now plenty of device nodes.
- The "unit address string" got fixed, it uses not DD,V format.
v3..v4:
- added descriptions for compatible nodes introduced here:
- intel,ce4100-ioapic
- intel,ce4100-lapic
- intel,ce4100-hpet
- intel,ce4100
- intel,ce4100-cp
- intel,ce4100-pci
- added a description about I2C controller magic.
- Added gpio-controller and gpio-cells property to gpio devices. Those
properties are not (yet) used.

This patch adds minimal support for device tree on x86. The device
tree blob is passed to the kernel via setup_data which requires at
least boot protocol 2.09.
Memory size, restricted memory regions, boot arguments are gathered
the traditional way so things like cmd_line are just here to let the
code compile.
The current plan is use the device tree as an extension and to gather
information which can not be enumerated and would have to be hardcoded
otherwise. This includes things like
- which devices are on this I2C/SPI bus?
- how are the interrupts wired to IO APIC?
- where could my hpet be?
