Jiri Slaby cb174681a9 HID: hidraw: fix window in hidraw_release
There is a window between hidraw_table check and its dereference.
In that window, the device may be unplugged and removed form the
system and we will then dereference NULL.

Lock that place properly so that either we get NULL and jump out or we
can work with real pointer.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Jiri Kosina d4bfa033ed HID: make raw reports possible for both feature and output reports
In commit 2da31939a4 ("Bluetooth: Implement raw output support for HIDP
layer"), support for Bluetooth hid_output_raw_report was added, but it
pushes the data to the intr socket instead of the ctrl one. This has been
fixed by 6bf8268f9a ("Bluetooth: Use the control channel for raw HID reports")

Still, it is necessary to distinguish whether the report in question should be
either FEATURE or OUTPUT. For this, we have to extend the generic HID API,
so that hid_output_raw_report() callback provides means to specify this
value so that it can be passed down to lower level hardware drivers (currently
Bluetooth and USB).

Oliver Neukum 0361a28d3f HID: autosuspend support for USB HID
This uses the USB busy mechanism for aggessive autosuspend of USB
HID devices. It autosuspends all opened devices supporting remote wakeup
after a timeout unless

- output is being done to the device
- a key is being held down (remote wakeup isn't triggered upon key release)
- LED(s) are lit
- hiddev is opened

As in the current driver closed devices will be autosuspended even if they
don't support remote wakeup.

The patch is quite large because output to devices is done in hard interrupt
context meaning a lot a queuing and locking had to be touched. The LED stuff
has been solved by means of a simple counter. Additions to the generic HID code
could be avoided. In addition it now covers hidraw. It contains an embryonic
version of an API to let the generic HID code tell the lower levels which
capabilities with respect to power management are needed.

Alan Cox 979c407e3b HID: Push down BKL into ioctl handler in hidraw
In this case I simply wrapped it as code review suggests the locking
already terminally broken and I didn't want to make it first. See added
comment

Greg Kroah-Hartman 0fd15a18d8 device create: hid: convert device_create to device_create_drvdata
device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free
device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away.

Pavel Emelyanov ba25f9dcc4 Use helpers to obtain task pid in printks
The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

Jiri Kosina 57d292bd7e HID: fix HIDIOCGRDESC memory access in hidraw
Fix bogus copying of data into userspace when HIDIOCGRDESC is issued.
HID-transport layer makes sure that dev->hid->rdesc is not larger than
HID_MAX_DESCRIPTOR_SIZE.

Mariusz Kozlowski 709d27c04f HID: hidraw_connect() memleak fix
It looks like hidraw_connect() is leaking memory in case of failure.
Also it should return -ENOMEM when kzalloc fails.

Jiri Kosina 86166b7bcd HID: add hidraw interface
hidraw is an interface that is going to obsolete hiddev one
day.

Many userland applications are using libusb instead of using
kernel-provided hiddev interface. This is caused by various
reasons - the HID parser in kernel doesn't handle all the
HID hardware on the planet properly, some devices might require
its own specific quirks/drivers, etc.

hiddev interface tries to do its best to parse all the received
reports properly, and presents only parsed usages into userspace.
This is however often not enough, and that's the reason why
many userland applications just don't use hiddev at all, and
rather use libusb to read raw USB events and process them on
their own.

Another drawback of hiddev is that it is USB-specific.

hidraw interface provides userspace readers with really raw HID
reports, no matter what the low-level transport layer is (USB/BT),
and gives the userland applications all the freedom to process
the HID reports in a way they wish to.
