cc6323c7d8 ath5k: Update channel functions
* Add channel function for RF2425 (got this from decompiling binary
   HAL, i have no idea why there is a 5GHz section but i'm looking
   into it)
 * Update RF5112 channel function (also got this from decompiling binary HAL)
 * Set JAPAN setting for channel 14 on all PHY chips

df75dcddf9 ath5k: Reorder calibration calls during reset and update hw_set_power
* Update ath5k_hw_reset and add some more documentation about PHY calibration
 * Fix ath5k_hw_set_power to use AR5K_SLEEP_CTL_SLE_ALLOW for Network sleep
 * Preserve sleep duration field while setting AR5K_SLEEP_CTL
   and reduce delays & checks for register's status (got this from
   decompiling & dumps, it works for me but it needs testing)

5c7edcd7ee tracehook: fix exit_signal=0 case
My commit 2b2a1ff64a introduced a regression
(sorry about that) for the odd case of exit_signal=0 (e.g. clone_flags=0).
This is not a normal use, but it's used by a case in the glibc test suite.

Dying with exit_signal=0 sends no signal, but it's supposed to wake up a
parent's blocked wait*() calls (unlike the delayed_group_leader case).
This fixes tracehook_notify_death() and its caller to distinguish a
"signal 0" wakeup from the delayed_group_leader case (with no wakeup).

7f30491ccd [IA64] Move include/asm-ia64 to arch/ia64/include/asm
After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups:

1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h>

2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to
make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these
comments to use the new include paths.

3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just
deleted these self references.

e491d230fd au1xmmc: raise segment size limit.
Raise the DMA block size limit from 2048 bytes to the maximum supported
by the DMA controllers on the chip (64KB on Au1100, 4MB on Au1200).

This gives a very small performance boost and apparently fixes an oops
when MMC-DMA and network traffic are active at the same time.

20c6aaa39a [PATCH] Fix the bug of using AUDIT_STATUS_RATE_LIMIT when set fail, no error output.
When the "status_get->mask" is "AUDIT_STATUS_RATE_LIMIT || AUDIT_STATUS_BACKLOG_LIMIT".
If "audit_set_rate_limit" fails and "audit_set_backlog_limit" succeeds, the "err" value
will be greater than or equal to 0. It will miss the failure of rate set.

980dfb0db3 [PATCH] Fix the kernel panic of audit_filter_task when key field is set
When calling audit_filter_task(), it calls audit_filter_rules() with audit_context is NULL.
If the key field is set, the result in audit_filter_rules() will be set to 1 and
ctx->filterkey will be set to key.
But the ctx is NULL in this condition, so kernel will panic.

Thanks for your detailed explanation.
I have made a new patch for outputing "loginuid" and "sessionid" by audit_get_loginuid(current) and audit_get_sessionid(current).
If there are some deficiencies, please give me your indication.

1d6c9649e2 kernel/audit.c control character detection is off-by-one
Hello,

According to my understanding there is an off-by-one bug in the
function:

   audit_string_contains_control()

in:

  kernel/audit.c

Patch is included.

I do not know from how many places the function is called from, but for
example, SELinux Access Vector Cache tries to log untrusted filenames via
call path:

avc_audit()
     audit_log_untrustedstring()
         audit_log_n_untrustedstring()
             audit_string_contains_control()

If audit_string_contains_control() detects control characters, then the
string is hex-encoded. But the hex=0x7f dec=127, DEL-character, is not
detected.

I guess this could have at least some minor security implications, since a
user can create a filename with 0x7f in it, causing logged filename to
possibly look different when someone reads it on the terminal.

ee1d315663 [PATCH] Audit: Collect signal info when SIGUSR2 is sent to auditd
Makes the kernel audit subsystem collect information about the sending
process when that process sends SIGUSR2 to the userspace audit daemon.
SIGUSR2 is a new interesting signal to auditd telling auditd that it
should try to start logging to disk again and the error condition which
caused it to stop logging to disk (usually out of space) has been
rectified.
