For CCW and SCSI IPL the hardware sets the subchannel ID and number correctly at 0xb8. For kdump at 0xb8 normally there is the data of the previously IPLed system. In order to be clean now for kdump and kexec always set the subchannel ID and number to zero. This tells the next OS that no CCW/SCSI IPL has been done.

Revert "proc: Point /proc/{mounts,net} at /proc/thread-self/{mounts,net} instead of /proc/self/{mounts,net}" This reverts commits 344470ca and e8132440. It turns out that the exact path in the symlink matters, if for somewhat unfortunate reasons: some apparmor configurations don't allow dhclient access to the per-thread /proc files. As reported by Jörg Otte: audit: type=1400 audit(1407684227.003:28): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/sbin/dhclient" name="/proc/1540/task/1540/net/dev" pid=1540 comm="dhclient" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=0 ouid=0 so we had better revert this for now. We might be able to work around this in practice by only using the per-thread symlinks if the thread isn't the thread group leader, and if the namespaces differ between threads (which basically never happens). We'll see. In the meantime, the revert was made to be intentionally easy. Reported-by: Jörg Otte <jrg.otte@gmail.com> Acked-by: Eric W.

Pull nouveau drm updates from Ben Skeggs: "Apologies for not getting this done in time for Dave's drm-next merge window. As he mentioned, a pre-existing bug reared its head a lot more obviously after this lot of changes. It took quite a bit of time to track it down. In any case, Dave suggested I try my luck by sending directly to you this time. Overview: - more code for Tegra GK20A from NVIDIA - probing, reclockig - better fix for Kepler GPUs that have the graphics engine powered off on startup, method courtesy of info provided by NVIDIA - unhardcoding of a bunch of graphics engine setup on Fermi/Kepler/Maxwell, will hopefully solve some issues people have noticed on higher-end models - support for "Zero Bandwidth Clear" on Fermi/Kepler/Maxwell, needs userspace support in general, but some lucky apps will benefit automagically - reviewed/exposed the full object APIs to userspace (finally), gives it access to perfctrs, ZBC controls, various events.

Pull trace file read iterator fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This contains a fix for two long standing bugs. Both of which are rarely ever hit, and requires the user to do something that users rarely do. It took a few special test cases to even trigger this bug, and one of them was just one test in the process of finishing up as another one started. Both bugs have to do with the ring buffer iterator rb_iter_peek(), but one is more indirect than the other. The fist bug fix is simply an increase in the safety net loop counter. The counter makes sure that the rb_iter_peek() only iterates the number of times we expect it can, and no more. Well, there was one way it could iterate one more than we expected, and that caused the ring buffer to shutdown with a nasty warning. The fix was simply to up that counter by one. The other bug has to be with rb_iter_reset() (called by rb_iter_peek()). This happens when a user reads both the trace_pipe and trace files. The trace_pipe is a consuming read and does not use the ring buffer iterator, but the trace file is not a consuming read and does use the ring buffer iterator. When the trace file is being read, if it detects that a consuming read occurred, it resets the iterator and starts over. But the reset code that does this (rb_iter_reset()), checks if the reader_page is linked to the ring buffer or not, and will look into the ring buffer itself if it is not. This is wrong, as it should always try to read the reader page first. Not to mention, the code that looked into the ring buffer did it wrong, and used the header_page "read" offset to start reading on that page. That offset is bogus for pages in the writable ring buffer, and was corrupting the iterator, and it would start returning bogus events" * tag 'trace-fixes-3.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Always reset iterator to reader page ring-buffer: Up rb_iter_peek() loop count to 3

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6. The most significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling. The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only, no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify this change works correctly. The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be backported as well. The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line commits that can be trivially reverted. Unfortunately I lost and could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not credited. From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by the introduction of the network namespace" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: proc: Point /proc/mounts at /proc/thread-self/mounts instead of /proc/self/mounts proc: Point /proc/net at /proc/thread-self/net instead of /proc/self/net proc: Implement /proc/thread-self to point at the directory of the current thread proc: Have net show up under /proc/<tgid>/task/<tid> NFS: Fix /proc/fs/nfsfs/servers and /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes mnt: Add tests for unprivileged remount cases that have found to be faulty mnt: Change the default remount atime from relatime to the existing value mnt: Correct permission checks in do_remount mnt: Move the test for MNT_LOCK_READONLY from change_mount_flags into do_remount mnt: Only change user settable mount flags in remount namespaces: Use task_lock and not rcu to protect nsproxy

Pull SElinux fixes from Paul Moore: "Two small patches to fix a couple of build warnings in SELinux and NetLabel. The patches are obvious enough that I don't think any additional explanation is necessary, but it basically boils down to the usual: I was stupid, and these patches fix some of the stupid. Both patches were posted earlier this week to the SELinux list, and that is where they sat as I didn't think there were noteworthy enough to go upstream at this point in time, but DaveM would rather see them upstream now so who am I to argue. As the patches are both very small" * 'stable-3.17' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/selinux: selinux: remove unused variabled in the netport, netnode, and netif caches netlabel: fix the netlbl_catmap_setlong() dummy function
