  • There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
    Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
    caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
    Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

    Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
    they were part of.

  • The bug was accidentally found by the following program:

    #include
    #include
    #include
    static int setsysinfo(unsigned long op, void *buffer, unsigned long size,
    int *start, void *arg, unsigned long flag) {
    return syscall(__NR_osf_setsysinfo, op, buffer, size, start, arg, flag);
    }

    int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    short x[10];
    unsigned int buf[2] = { SSIN_UACPROC, UAC_SIGBUS, };
    setsysinfo(SSI_NVPAIRS, buf, 1, 0, 0, 0);

    int *y = (int*) (x+1);
    *y = 0;
    return 0;
    }

    The program shoud fail on SIGBUS, but didn't.

    The patch is a second part of userspace flag fix (commit 745dd2405e28
    "Alpha: Rearrange thread info flags fixing two regressions").

    Deleted outdated out-of-sync 'UAC_SHIFT' (the cause of bug) in favour of
    'ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT'.

  • cmpxchg() is widely used by lockless code, including NMI-safe lockless
    code. But on some architectures, the cmpxchg() implementation is not
    NMI-safe, on these architectures the lockless code may need a
    spin_trylock_irqsave() based implementation.

    This patch adds a Kconfig option: ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG, so that
    NMI-safe lockless code can depend on it or provide different
    implementation according to it.

    On many architectures, cmpxchg is only NMI-safe for several specific
    operand sizes. So, ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG define in this patch
    only guarantees cmpxchg is NMI-safe for sizeof(unsigned long).

  • After changing all consumers of atomics to include , we
    ran into some compile time errors due to this dependency chain:

    linux/atomic.h
    -> asm/atomic.h
    -> asm-generic/atomic-long.h

    where atomic-long.h could use funcs defined later in linux/atomic.h
    without a prototype. This patches moves the code that includes
    asm-generic/atomic*.h to linux/atomic.h.

    Archs that need need to select
    CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 from now on (some of them used to include it
    unconditionally).

    Compile tested on i386 and x86_64 with allnoconfig.

  • Aside of the usual motivation for constification, this function has a
    history of being abused a hook for interrupt and other fixups so I turned
    this function const ages ago in the MIPS code but it should be done
    treewide.

    Due to function pointer passing in varous places a few other functions
    had to be constified as well.

  • All these are instances of
    #define NAME value;
    or
    #define NAME(params_opt) value;

    These of course fail to build when used in contexts like
    if(foo $OP NAME)
    while(bar $OP NAME)
    and may silently generate the wrong code in contexts such as
    foo = NAME + 1; /* foo = value; + 1; */
    bar = NAME - 1; /* bar = value; - 1; */
    baz = NAME & quux; /* baz = value; & quux; */

    Reported on comp.lang.c,
    Message-ID:
    Initial analysis of the dangers provided by Keith Thompson in that thread.

    There are many more instances of more complicated macros having unnecessary
    trailing semicolons, but this pile seems to be all of the cases of simple
    values suffering from the problem. (Thus things that are likely to be found
    in one of the contexts above, more complicated ones aren't.)

  • The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
    context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
    resulting interrupt do the wakeup.

    For the various event classes:

    - hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
    the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
    - tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
    - software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
    perform wakeups, and hence need 0.

    As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
    not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
    jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).

    The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
    bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

  • commit 21a3c96 uses node_start/end_pfn(nid) for detection start/end
    of nodes. But, it's not defined in linux/mmzone.h but defined in
    /arch/???/include/mmzone.h which is included only under
    CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y.

    Then, we see
    mm/page_cgroup.c: In function 'page_cgroup_init':
    mm/page_cgroup.c:308: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_start_pfn'
    mm/page_cgroup.c:309: error: implicit declaration of function 'node_end_pfn'

    So, fixiing page_cgroup.c is an idea...

    But node_start_pfn()/node_end_pfn() is a very generic macro and
    should be implemented in the same manner for all archs.
    (m32r has different implementation...)

    This patch removes definitions of node_start/end_pfn() in each archs
    and defines a unified one in linux/mmzone.h. It's not under
    CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, now.

    A result of macro expansion is here (mm/page_cgroup.c)

    for !NUMA
    start_pfn = ((&contig_page_data)->node_start_pfn);
    end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (&contig_page_data); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

    for NUMA (x86-64)
    start_pfn = ((node_data[nid])->node_start_pfn);
    end_pfn = ({ pg_data_t *__pgdat = (node_data[nid]); __pgdat->node_start_pfn + __pgdat->node_spanned_pages;});

    Changelog:
    - fixed to avoid using "nid" twice in node_end_pfn() macro.

    mostly trivial.

    1. Signedness issue in osf_getdomainname allows copying out-of-bounds
    kernel memory to userland.

    2. Signedness issue in osf_sysinfo allows copying large amounts of
    kernel memory to userland.

    3. Typo (?) in osf_getsysinfo bounds minimum instead of maximum copy
    size, allowing copying large amounts of kernel memory to userland.

    4. Usage of user pointer in osf_wait4 while under KERNEL_DS allows
    privilege escalation via writing return value of sys_wait4 to kernel
    memory.

  • Lenghty lists of the kind "depends on ARCH1 || ARCH2 ... || ARCH123" are
    usually either wrong or too coarse grained. Or plain an ugly sin.

  • The Alpha header is empty so this inclusion can just be

  • * setns:
    ns: Wire up the setns system call

    Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
    addition of sendmmsg system call

    Linus Torvalds
     
  • 32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
    at closely and I can't find any problems.

    setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
    don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.

    While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
    very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
    the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
    in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
    behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
    the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
    call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
    call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
    new in the 2.6.39.

    v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano
    v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman
    v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
    v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
    v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts.
    v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

  • By the previous style change, CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_NEXT_BIT,
    CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_BIT_LE, and CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_LAST_BIT are not used
    to test for existence of find bitops anymore.

  • This constant hasn't been used since before the git era (2.6.12) and thus
    can be dropped.

  • Allow people to use gpiolib on Alpha if they want to, mostly for build
    coverage. The header is a stright copy of that for Microblaze, which in
    turn was taken from PowerPC.
