2013-12-07ACPI: Clean up inclusions of ACPI header filesLv Zheng1-1/+1
Replace direct inclusions of <acpi/acpi.h>, <acpi/acpi_bus.h> and <acpi/acpi_drivers.h>, which are incorrect, with <linux/acpi.h> inclusions and remove some inclusions of those files that aren't necessary. First of all, <acpi/acpi.h>, <acpi/acpi_bus.h> and <acpi/acpi_drivers.h> should not be included directly from any files that are built for CONFIG_ACPI unset, because that generally leads to build warnings about undefined symbols in !CONFIG_ACPI builds. For CONFIG_ACPI set, <linux/acpi.h> includes those files and for CONFIG_ACPI unset it provides stub ACPI symbols to be used in that case. Second, there are ordering dependencies between those files that always have to be met. Namely, it is required that <acpi/acpi_bus.h> be included prior to <acpi/acpi_drivers.h> so that the acpi_pci_root declarations the latter depends on are always there. And <acpi/acpi.h> which provides basic ACPICA type declarations should always be included prior to any other ACPI headers in CONFIG_ACPI builds. That also is taken care of including <linux/acpi.h> as appropriate.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux Pull module update from Rusty Russell: "The sweeping change is to make add_taint() explicitly indicate whether to disable lockdep, but it's a mechanical change." * tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux: MODSIGN: Add option to not sign modules during modules_install MODSIGN: Add -s <signature> option to sign-file MODSIGN: Specify the hash algorithm on sign-file command line MODSIGN: Simplify Makefile with a Kconfig helper module: clean up load_module a little more. modpost: Ignore ARC specific non-alloc sections module: constify within_module_* taint: add explicit flag to show whether lock dep is still OK. module: printk message when module signature fail taints kernel.
2013-01-26ACPI: fix obsolete comment in custom_method.cZhang Rui1-1/+1
The comment describing the contents of the custom_method.c file is obsolete, so update it. [rjw: Subject and changelog] Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
2013-01-21taint: add explicit flag to show whether lock dep is still OK.Rusty Russell1-1/+1
Fix up all callers as they were before, with make one change: an unsigned module taints the kernel, but doesn't turn off lockdep. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2011-05-29ACPI: Split out custom_method functionality into an own driverThomas Renninger1-0/+100
With /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method root can write to arbitrary memory and increase his priveleges, even if these are restricted. -> Make this an own debug .config option and warn about the security issue in the config description. -> Still keep acpi/debugfs.c which now only creates an empty /sys/kernel/debug/acpi directory. There might be other users of it later. Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Acked-by: Rafael J.
