  • 64ac24e73   Generic semaphore implementation ... Browse Code »
    46

    Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C
    implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and
    extensibility. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep
    warning. Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the
    unlikely() was unnecessary.

  • dd135ebbd   kvm: provide kvm.h for all architecture: fixes headers_install ... Browse Code »

    Currently include/linux/kvm.h is not considered by make headers_install,
    because Kbuild cannot handle " unifdef-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.h. This problem
    was introduced by

    commit fb56dbb31c4738a3918db81fd24da732ce3b4ae6

    KVM: Export include/linux/kvm.h only if $ARCH actually supports KVM

    Currently, make headers_check barfs due to , which
    includes, not existing. Rather than add a zillion s, export kvm.
    only if the arch actually supports it.

    which makes this an 2.6.25 regression.

    One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced
    me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes
    the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y.

    If  unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all
    architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides
    asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

  • 10b882706   Add cmpxchg_local to blackfin, replace __cmpxchg by generic cmpxchg ... Browse Code »

    Use the new generic cmpxchg_local (disables interrupt). Also use the generic
    cmpxchg as fallback if SMP is not set since nobody seems to know why __cmpxchg
    has been implemented in assembly in the first place thather than in plain C.

  • 6e16d89bc   Sanitize the type of struct user.u_ar0 ... Browse Code »

    struct user.u_ar0 is defined to contain a pointer offset on all
    architectures in which it is defined (all architectures which define an
    a.out format except SPARC.) However, it has a pointer type in the headers,
    which is pointless -- is not exported to userspace, and it
    just makes the code messy.

    Redefine the field as "unsigned long" (which is the same size as a pointer
    on all Linux architectures) and change the setting code to user offsetof()
    instead of hand-coded arithmetic.

    asm/elf.h, asm/page.h and asm/user.h don't export to userspace now, so we can
    drop #ifdef __KERNEL__ for them.

    A userspace program may wish to set the mark for each packets its send
    without using the netfilter MARK target. Changing the mark can be used
    for mark based routing without netfilter or for packet filtering.

    It requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
