Rob Herring dde04eb116 binder: Add 'hwbinder' to the default devices
As AOSP master is now starting to require a hwbinder device, add it to
the the default Kconfig. Having the hwbinder device when not needed
shouldn't hurt anything either.

Martijn Coenen 7980240b6d binder: Add support for scatter-gather
Previously all data passed over binder needed
to be serialized, with the exception of Binder
objects and file descriptors.

This patchs adds support for scatter-gathering raw
memory buffers into a binder transaction, avoiding
the need to first serialize them into a Parcel.

To remain backwards compatibile with existing
binder clients, it introduces two new command
ioctls for this purpose - BC_TRANSACTION_SG and
BC_REPLY_SG. These commands may only be used with
the new binder_transaction_data_sg structure,
which adds a field for the total size of the
buffers we are scatter-gathering.

Because memory buffers may contain pointers to
other buffers, we allow callers to specify
a parent buffer and an offset into it, to indicate
this is a location pointing to the buffer that
we are fixing up. The kernel will then take care
of fixing up the pointer to that buffer as well.

Martijn Coenen 4bfac80af3 binder: Add extra size to allocator
The binder_buffer allocator currently only allocates
space for the data and offsets buffers of a Parcel.
This change allows for requesting an additional chunk
of data in the buffer, which can for example be used
to hold additional meta-data about the transaction
(eg a security context).

Martijn Coenen ac4812c5ff binder: Support multiple /dev instances
Add a new module parameter 'devices', that can be
used to specify the names of the binder device
nodes we want to populate in /dev.

Each device node has its own context manager, and
is therefore logically separated from all the other
device nodes.

The config option CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES can
be used to set the default value of the parameter.

This approach was favored over using IPC namespaces,
mostly because we require a single process to be a
part of multiple binder contexts, which seemed harder
to achieve with namespaces.

Martijn Coenen feba3900ca binder: Split flat_binder_object
flat_binder_object is used for both handling
binder objects and file descriptors, even though
the two are mostly independent. Since we'll
have more fixup objects in binder in the future,
instead of extending flat_binder_object again,
split out file descriptors to their own object
while retaining backwards compatibility to
existing user-space clients. All binder objects
just share a header.

Bhaktipriya Shridhar 1beba52d46 android: binder: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue
The workqueue is being used to run deferred work for the android binder.

The "binder_deferred_workqueue" queues only a single work item and hence
does not require ordering. Also, this workqueue is not being used on a
memory recliam path. Hence, the singlethreaded workqueue has been
replaced with the use of system_wq.

System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.

Andrey Ryabinin f4c72c7030 android: binder: fix binder mmap failures
binder_update_page_range() initializes only addr and size
fields in 'struct vm_struct tmp_area;' and passes it to
map_vm_area().

Before 71394fe501 ("mm: vmalloc: add flag preventing guard hole allocation")
this was because map_vm_area() didn't use any other fields
in vm_struct except addr and size.

Now get_vm_area_size() (used in map_vm_area()) reads vm_struct's
flags to determine whether vm area has guard hole or not.

binder_update_page_range() don't initialize flags field, so
this causes following binder mmap failures:

Stephen Smalley 79af73079d Add security hooks to binder and implement the hooks for SELinux.
Add security hooks to the binder and implement the hooks for SELinux.
The security hooks enable security modules such as SELinux to implement
controls over binder IPC.  The security hooks include support for
controlling what process can become the binder context manager
(binder_set_context_mgr), controlling the ability of a process
to invoke a binder transaction/IPC to another process (binder_transaction),
controlling the ability of a process to transfer a binder reference to
another process (binder_transfer_binder), and controlling the ability
of a process to transfer an open file to another process (binder_transfer_file).

These hooks have been included in the Android kernel trees since Android 4.3.

(Updated to reflect upstream relocation and changes to the binder driver,
changes to the LSM audit data structures, coding style cleanups, and
to add inline documentation for the hooks).

Greg Kroah-Hartman 9246a4a98a android: binder: remove binder.h
binder.h isn't needed to just include a uapi file and set a single
define, so move it into binder.c to save a few lines of code.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 777783e0ab staging: android: binder: move to the "real" part of the kernel
The Android binder code has been "stable" for many years now.  No matter
what comes in the future, we are going to have to support this API, so
might as well move it to the "real" part of the kernel as there's no
real work that needs to be done to the existing code.
