This is needed if user space wants to know supported bnep features
by kernel, e.g. if kernel supports sending response to bnep setup
control message. By now there is no possibility to know supported
features by kernel in case of bnep. Ioctls allows only to add connection,
delete connection, get connection list, get connection info. Adding
connection if it's possible (establishing network device connection) is
equivalent to starting bnep session. Bnep session handles data queue of
transmit, receive messages over bnep channel. It means that if we add
connection the received/transmitted data will be parsed immediately. In
case of get bnep features we want to know before session start, if we
should leave setup data on socket queue and let kernel to handle with it,
or in case of no setup handling support, if we should pull this message
and handle setup response within user space.Signed-off-by: Grzegorz Kolodziejczyk

All the HCI sockets and ioctl based definitions have been in a global
header file that also includes all the HCI protocol structures. To
make this a bit cleaner, move them into its own file.This also adjusts fs/compat_ioctl.c to only include this new file
and not all the protocol structures that are not needed.Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

Some fs compat system calls have unsigned long parameters instead of
compat_ulong_t.
In order to allow the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE macro generate code that
performs proper zero and sign extension convert all 64 bit parameters
their corresponding 32 bit counterparts.compat_sys_io_getevents() is a bit different: the non-compat version
has signed parameters for the "min_nr" and "nr" parameters while the
compat version has unsigned parameters.
So change this as well. For all practical purposes this shouldn't make
any difference (doesn't fix a real bug).
Also introduce a generic compat_aio_context_t type which can be used
everywhere.
The access_ok() check within compat_sys_io_getevents() got also removed
since the non-compat sys_io_getevents() should be able to handle
everything anyway.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:
- big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
that is moved to fs/file.c(BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is,
we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
struct file we used to have way back).A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of
relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
leak.- related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).- also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
switch of fdinfo to seq_file.- Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate
pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.- a few misc patches all over the place. Not all for this cycle,
there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()

We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument"). It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad. We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually. In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

RAW_SETBIND and RAW_GETBIND 32bit versions are fscked in interesting ways.
1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by
HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl). The latter is ignored.2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64
and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same. raw_ioctl() would
work there, but it's never called due to (1). As it is, i386 /sbin/raw
definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen.3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64,
which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit.
The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT -
it eliminates *all* padding. The real solution is to use compat_u64.4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the
first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of
messing with compat_ioctl.c.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
LINEMODE in the server.There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn
off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
what state the user wants the terminal to be in.New ioctl:
TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the
current process group of the pty.There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty
to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:http://anonsvn.mit.edu/viewvc/krb5/trunk/src/appl/telnet/?pathrev=17741

Merge reason: The staging tree has introduced the easycap
driver lately. We need the latest updates to pushdown the
bkl in its ioctl helper. -
Handling of autofs ioctl numbers does not need to be generic
and can easily be done directly in autofs itself.This also pushes the BKL into autofs and autofs4 ioctl
methods.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

This patch introduces two new ioctls: HCIUARTSETFLAGS and
HCIUARTGETFLAGS. The only flag available for now is HCI_UART_RAW_DEVICE
which allows to initialize a UART device into RAW mode from userspace.
This is particularly useful for experimenting with Bluetooth controllers
that don't yet have proper support in BlueZ.Signed-off-by: Johan Hedberg
