Add support for per-file labeling of debugfs files so that
we can distinguish them in policy. This is particularly
important in Android where certain debugfs files have to be writable
by apps and therefore the debugfs directory tree can be read and
searched by all.
Since debugfs is entirely kernel-generated, the directory tree is
immutable by userspace, and the inodes are pinned in memory, we can
simply use the same approach as with proc and label the inodes from
policy based on pathname from the root of the debugfs filesystem.
Generalize the existing labeling support used for proc and reuse it
for debugfs too.

Update the set of SELinux netlink socket class definitions to match
the set of netlink protocols implemented by the kernel. The
ip_queue implementation for the NETLINK_FIREWALL and NETLINK_IP6_FW protocols
was removed in d16cf20e2f, so we can remove
the corresponding class definitions as this is dead code. Add new
classes for NETLINK_ISCSI, NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP, NETLINK_CONNECTOR,
NETLINK_NETFILTER, NETLINK_GENERIC, NETLINK_SCSITRANSPORT, NETLINK_RDMA,
and NETLINK_CRYPTO so that we can distinguish among sockets created
for each of these protocols. This change does not define the finer-grained
nlsmsg_read/write permissions or map specific nlmsg_type values to those
permissions in the SELinux nlmsgtab; if finer-grained control of these
sockets is desired/required, that can be added as a follow-on change.
We do not define a SELinux class for NETLINK_ECRYPTFS as the implementation
was removed in 624ae52845.

selinux_bprm_committed_creds()->__flush_signals() is not right, we

reasons for signal_pending(): freezing(), JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK, and
potentially more.
Also change this code to check fatal_signal_pending() rather than
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, it looks a bit better.

Smack onlycap allows limiting of CAP_MAC_ADMIN and CAP_MAC_OVERRIDE to
processes running with the configured label. But having single privileged
label is not enough in some real use cases. On a complex system like Tizen,
there maybe few programs that need to configure Smack policy in run-time
and running them all with a single label is not always practical.
This patch extends onlycap feature for multiple labels. They are configured
in the same smackfs "onlycap" interface, separated by spaces.

Use proper RCU functions and read locking in smackfs seq_operations.
Smack gets away with not using proper RCU functions in smackfs, because
it never removes entries from these lists. But now one list will be
needed (with interface in smackfs) that will have both elements added and
removed to it.
This change will also help any future changes implementing removal of
unneeded entries from other Smack lists.
The patch also fixes handling of pos argument in smk_seq_start and
smk_seq_next. This fixes a bug in case when smackfs is read with a small
buffer:

This patch adds the iint associated to the current inode as a new
parameter of ima_add_violation(). The passed iint is always not NULL
if a violation is detected. This modification will be used to determine
the inode for which there is a violation.
Since the 'd' and 'd-ng' template field init() functions were detecting
a violation from the value of the iint pointer, they now check the new
field 'violation', added to the 'ima_event_data' structure.

This patch makes the following functions to use ERR_PTR() and related
macros to pass the appropriate error code through returned pointers:
smk_parse_smack()
smk_import_entry()
smk_fetch()
It also makes all the other functions that use them to handle the
error cases properly. This ways correct error codes from places
where they happened can be propagated to the user space if necessary.
Doing this it fixes a bug in onlycap and unconfined files
handling. Previously their content was cleared on any error from
smk_import_entry/smk_parse_smack, be it EINVAL (as originally intended)
or ENOMEM. Right now it only reacts on EINVAL passing other codes
properly to userspace.

Instead of using a vector of security operations
with explicit, special case stacking of the capability
and yama hooks use lists of hooks with capability and
yama hooks included as appropriate.
The security_operations structure is no longer required.
Instead, there is a union of the function pointers that
allows all the hooks lists to use a common mechanism for
list management while retaining typing. Each module
supplies an array describing the hooks it provides instead
of a sparsely populated security_operations structure.
The description includes the element that gets put on
the hook list, avoiding the issues surrounding individual
element allocation.
The method for registering security modules is changed to
reflect the information available. The method for removing
a module, currently only used by SELinux, has also changed.
It should be generic now, however if there are potential
race conditions based on ordering of hook removal that needs
to be addressed by the calling module.
The security hooks are called from the lists and the first
failure is returned.

AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.
Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.
This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

"This lays a little of the groundwork for upcoming Shared Virtual
Memory support — fixing some bogus #defines for capability bits and
adding the new ones, and starting to use the new wider page tables
where we can, in anticipation of actually filling in the new fields
therein.
It also allows graphics devices to be assigned to VM guests again.
This got broken in 3.17 by disallowing assignment of RMRR-afflicted
devices. Like USB, we do understand why there's an RMRR for graphics
devices — and unlike USB, it's actually sane. So we can make an
exception for graphics devices, just as we do USB controllers.
Finally, tone down the warning about the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit, due to
persistent requests. X2APIC_OPT_OUT was added to the spec as a nasty
hack to allow broken BIOSes to forbid us from using X2APIC when they
do stupid and invasive things and would break if we did.
Someone noticed that since Windows doesn't have full IOMMU support for
DMA protection, setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit made Windows avoid
initialising the IOMMU on the graphics unit altogether.
This means that it would be available for use in "driver mode", where
the IOMMU registers are made available through a BAR of the graphics
device and the graphics driver can do SVM all for itself.
So they started setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit on *all* platforms with
SVM capabilities. And even the platforms which *might*, if the
planets had been aligned correctly, possibly have had SVM capability
but which in practice actually don't"

"These are fixes mostly (intel_pstate, ACPI core, ACPI EC driver,
cpupower tool), a new CPU ID for the Intel RAPL driver and one
intel_pstate driver improvement that didn't make it to my previous
pull requests due to timing.
Specifics:
- Fix a build warning in the intel_pstate driver showing up in
non-SMP builds (Borislav Petkov)
- Change one of the intel_pstate's P-state selection parameters for
Baytrail and Cherrytrail CPUs to significantly improve performance
at the cost of a small increase in energy consumption (Kristen
Carlson Accardi)
- Fix a NULL pointer dereference in the ACPI EC driver due to an
unsafe list walk in the query handler removal routine (Chris
Bainbridge)
- Get rid of a false-positive lockdep warning in the ACPI container
hot-remove code (Rafael J Wysocki)
- Prevent the ACPI device enumeration code from creating device
objects of a wrong type in some cases (Rafael J Wysocki)

Here's a set of updates to the Chrome OS platform drivers for this merge window.
Main new things this cycle is:
- Driver changes to expose the lightbar to users. With this, you can make your
own blinkenlights on Chromebook Pixels.
- Changes in the way that the atmel_mxt trackpads are probed. The laptop driver
is trying to be smart and not instantiate the devices that don't answer to
probe. For the trackpad that can come up in two modes (bootloader or regular),
this gets complicated since the driver already knows how to handle the two
modes including the actual addresses used. So now the laptop driver needs to
know more too, instantiating the regular address even if the bootloader one
is the probe that passed.
- mfd driver improvements by Javier Martines Canillas, and a few bugfixes
from him, kbuild and myself.

The new Atmel MXT driver expects i2c client's address contain the
primary (main address) of the chip, and calculates the expected
bootloader address form the primary address. Unfortunately chrome_laptop
does probe the devices and if touchpad (or touchscreen, or both) comes
up in bootloader mode the i2c device gets instantiated with the
bootloader address which confuses the driver.
To work around this issue let's probe the primary address first. If the
device is not detected at the primary address we'll probe alternative
addresses as "dummy" devices. If any of them are found, destroy the
dummy client and instantiate client with proper name at primary address
still.

Calling unlazy_walk() in walk_component() and do_last() when we find
a symlink that needs to be followed doesn't acquire a reference to vfsmount.
That's fine when the symlink is on the same vfsmount as the parent directory
(which is almost always the case), but it's not always true - one _can_
manage to bind a symlink on top of something. And in such cases we end up
with excessive mntput().

do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.
For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
better latencies too. Before:
clat percentiles (usec):

After:

In other setups, Robert Elliott reported seeing good performance
improvements:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/3/557
The more applications accessing the device, the worse it gets.
Add a new direct-io flags, DIO_SKIP_DIO_COUNT, which tells
do_blockdev_direct_IO() that it need not worry about incrementing
or decrementing the inode i_dio_count for this caller.
