While the RFCOMM TTY emulation can act like a real serial port, in
reality it is not used like this. So to not mess up stupid applications,

With the Simple Pairing support, the authentication requirements are
an explicit setting during the bonding process. Track and enforce the
requirements and allow higher layers like L2CAP and RFCOMM to increase
them if needed.

This patch introduces a new IOCTL that allows to query the current
authentication requirements. It is also possible to detect Simple
Pairing support in the kernel this way.

The Bluetooth specification allows to enable or disable the encryption
of an ACL link at any time by either the peer or the remote device. If
a L2CAP or RFCOMM connection requested an encrypted link, they will now
disconnect that link if the encryption gets disabled. Higher protocols
that don't care about encryption (like SDP) are not affected.

Recent tests with various Bluetooth headsets have shown that some of
them don't enforce authentication and encryption when connecting. All
of them leave it up to the host stack to enforce it. Non of them should
allow unencrypted connections, but that is how it is. So in case the
link mode settings require authentication and/or encryption it will now
also be enforced on outgoing RFCOMM connections. Previously this was
only done for incoming connections.

This support has a small drawback from a protocol level point of view
since the host stack can't really tell with 100% certainty if a remote
side is already authenticated or not. So if both sides are configured
to enforce authentication it will be requested twice. Most Bluetooth
chips are caching this information and thus no extra authentication
procedure has to be triggered over-the-air, but it can happen.

There's logic in __rfcomm_dlc_close:
	rfcomm_dlc_lock(d);
	d->state = BT_CLOSED;
	d->state_changed(d, err);
	rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d);

In rfcomm_dev_state_change, it's possible that rfcomm_dev_put try to
take the dlc lock, then we will deadlock.

Here fixed it by unlock dlc before rfcomm_dev_get in
rfcomm_dev_state_change.

why not unlock just before rfcomm_dev_put? it's because there's
another problem.  rfcomm_dev_get/rfcomm_dev_del will take
rfcomm_dev_lock, but in rfcomm_dev_add the lock order is :
rfcomm_dev_lock --> dlc lock

so I unlock dlc before the taken of rfcomm_dev_lock.

Actually it's a regression caused by commit
1905f6c7 ("bluetooth :
__rfcomm_dlc_close lock fix"), the dlc state_change could be two
callbacks : rfcomm_sk_state_change and rfcomm_dev_state_change. I
missed the rfcomm_sk_state_change that time.

Thanks Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for the effort in
commit 4c8411f8 ("bluetooth: fix
locking bug in the rfcomm socket cleanup handling") but he missed the
rfcomm_dev_state_change lock issue.

in net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c, rfcomm_sk_state_change() does the
following operation:

        if (parent && sock_flag(sk, SOCK_ZAPPED)) {
                /* We have to drop DLC lock here, otherwise
                 * rfcomm_sock_destruct() will dead lock. */
                rfcomm_dlc_unlock(d);
                rfcomm_sock_kill(sk);
                rfcomm_dlc_lock(d);
        }
}

which is fine, since rfcomm_sock_kill() will call sk_free() which will call
rfcomm_sock_destruct() which takes the rfcomm_dlc_lock()... so far so good.

HOWEVER, this assumes that the rfcomm_sk_state_change() function always gets
called with the rfcomm_dlc_lock() taken. This is the case for all but one
case, and in that case where we don't have the lock, we do a double unlock
followed by an attempt to take the lock, which due to underflow isn't
going anywhere fast.

This patch fixes this by moving the stragling case inside the lock, like
the other usages of the same call are doing in this code.

This was found with the help of the www.kerneloops.org project, where this
deadlock was observed 51 times at this point in time:

Lockdep warning will be trigged while rfcomm connection closing.

The locks taken in rfcomm_dev_add:
rfcomm_dev_lock --> d->lock

In __rfcomm_dlc_close:
d->lock --> rfcomm_dev_lock (in rfcomm_dev_state_change)

There's two way to fix it, one is in rfcomm_dev_add we first locking
d->lock then the rfcomm_dev_lock

The other (in this patch), remove the locking of d->lock for
rfcomm_dev_state_change because just locking "d->state = BT_CLOSED;"
is enough.

This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.

It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.

The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

goes with the updates.  At this point we have the same functionality as
before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to
begin turning new stuff on providing nobody reports lots of bugs

If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
setting functions from your upper layers.

If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
please fix it 8)

Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
paranoia

If the RFCOMM session is no longer attached to the TTY device, then it
makes no sense to go through with changing the termios settings.

The bt_proto array needs to be protected by some kind of locking to
prevent a race condition between bt_sock_create and bt_sock_register.

And in addition all calls to sk_alloc need to be made GFP_ATOMIC now.

When the connection lookup for the device structure fails, the reference
count for the HCI device needs to be decremented.

Some return values of the driver core register and create functions
are not handled and so might cause unexpected problems.
