Pull x32 support for x86-64 from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree introduces the X32 binary format and execution mode for x86:
32-bit data space binaries using 64-bit instructions and 64-bit kernel
syscalls.This allows applications whose working set fits into a 32 bits address
space to make use of 64-bit instructions while using a 32-bit address
space with shorter pointers, more compressed data structures, etc."Fix up trivial context conflicts in arch/x86/{Kconfig,vdso/vma.c}

Pull ext4 updates for 3.4 from Ted Ts'o:
"Ext4 commits for 3.3 merge window; mostly cleanups and bug fixesThe changes to export dirty_writeback_interval are from Artem's s_dirt
cleanup patch series. The same is true of the change to remove the
s_dirt helper functions which never got used by anyone in-tree. I've
run these changes by Al Viro, and am carrying them so that Artem can
more easily fix up the rest of the file systems during the next merge
window. (Originally we had hopped to remove the use of s_dirt from
ext4 during this merge window, but his patches had some bugs, so I
ultimately ended dropping them from the ext4 tree.)"* tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (66 commits)

Pull NFS client updates for Linux 3.4 from Trond Myklebust:
"New features include:
- Add NFS client support for containers.This should enable most of the necessary functionality, including
lockd support, and support for rpc.statd, NFSv4 idmapper and
RPCSEC_GSS upcalls into the correct network namespace from which
the mount system call was issued.- NFSv4 idmapper scalability improvements
Base the idmapper cache on the keyring interface to allow
concurrent access to idmapper entries. Start the process of
migrating users from the single-threaded daemon-based approach to
the multi-threaded request-key based approach.- NFSv4.1 implementation id.
Allows the NFSv4.1 client and server to mutually identify each
other for logging and debugging purposes.- Support the 'vers=4.1' mount option for mounting NFSv4.1 instead of
having to use the more counterintuitive 'vers=4,minorversion=1'.- SUNRPC tracepoints.
Start the process of adding tracepoints in order to improve
debugging of the RPC layer.- pNFS object layout support for autologin.
Important bugfixes include:
- Fix a bug in rpc_wake_up/rpc_wake_up_status that caused them to
fail to wake up all tasks when applied to priority waitqueues.- Ensure that we handle read delegations correctly, when we try to
truncate a file.- A number of fixes for NFSv4 state manager loops (mostly to do with
delegation recovery)."* tag 'nfs-for-3.4-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs: (224 commits)

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc//maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.For a multithreaded program like the following:
#include
void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);
}proc/PID/maps looks like the following:

the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but
that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread
stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same
content.With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not
present in the system, according to information specified in the
get_device_info returned from the server.The Protocol specifies two login hints.
1. An IP address:port combination
2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix
followed by :// and a string as address. For each protocol prefix
the string-address format might be different.We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant
to the second one.
NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It
just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should
only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package,
but the Kernel need not change.We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API.
(Thanks to Steve Dickson for pointing it out)
So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup.We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to:
/sbin/osd_loginKernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is
not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by
zeroing out osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the
osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program.Also add text about the osd_login program command line API to:
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/pnfs.txt

Wrap accesses to the fd_sets in struct fdtable (for recording open files and
close-on-exec flags) so that we can move away from using fd_sets since we
abuse the fd_set structs by not allocating the full-sized structure under
normal circumstances and by non-core code looking at the internals of the
fd_sets.The first abuse means that use of FD_ZERO() on these fd_sets is not permitted,
since that cannot be told about their abnormal lengths.This introduces six wrapper functions for setting, clearing and testing
close-on-exec flags and fd-is-open flags:void __set_close_on_exec(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt);
void __clear_close_on_exec(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt);
bool close_on_exec(int fd, const struct fdtable *fdt);
void __set_open_fd(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt);
void __clear_open_fd(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt);
bool fd_is_open(int fd, const struct fdtable *fdt);Note that I've prepended '__' to the names of the set/clear functions because
they require the caller to hold a lock to use them.Note also that I haven't added wrappers for looking behind the scenes at the
the array. Possibly that should exist too.Signed-off-by: David Howells

Cautious admins may want to restrict access to debugfs. Currently a
manual chown/chmod e.g. in an init script is needed to achieve that.
Distributions that want to make the mount options configurable need
to add extra config files. By allowing to set the root inode's uid,
gid and mode via mount options no such hacks are needed anymore.
Instead configuration becomes straight forward via fstab.Signed-off-by: Ludwig Nussel

The mm->start_code/end_code, mm->start_data/end_data, mm->start_brk are
involved into calculation of program text/data segment sizes (which might
be seen in /proc//statm) and into brk() call final address.For restore we need to know all these values. While
mm->start_code/end_code already present in /proc/$pid/stat, the rest
members are not, so this patch brings them in.The restore procedure of these members is addressed in another patch using

Add support for mount options to restrict access to /proc/PID/
directories. The default backward-compatible "relaxed" behaviour is left
untouched.The first mount option is called "hidepid" and its value defines how much
info about processes we want to be available for non-owners:hidepid=0 (default) means the old behavior - anybody may read all
world-readable /proc/PID/* files.hidepid=1 means users may not access any /proc// directories, but
their own. Sensitive files like cmdline, sched*, status are now protected
against other users. As permission checking done in proc_pid_permission()
and files' permissions are left untouched, programs expecting specific
files' modes are not confused.hidepid=2 means hidepid=1 plus all /proc/PID/ will be invisible to other
users. It doesn't mean that it hides whether a process exists (it can be
learned by other means, e.g. by kill -0 $PID), but it hides process' euid
and egid. It compicates intruder's task of gathering info about running
processes, whether some daemon runs with elevated privileges, whether
another user runs some sensitive program, whether other users run any
program at all, etc.gid=XXX defines a group that will be able to gather all processes' info
(as in hidepid=0 mode). This group should be used instead of putting
nonroot user in sudoers file or something. However, untrusted users (like
daemons, etc.) which are not supposed to monitor the tasks in the whole
system should not be added to the group.hidepid=1 or higher is designed to restrict access to procfs files, which
might reveal some sensitive private information like precise keystrokes
timings:http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/11/05/3
hidepid=1/2 doesn't break monitoring userspace tools. ps, top, pgrep, and
conky gracefully handle EPERM/ENOENT and behave as if the current user is
the only user running processes. pstree shows the process subtree which
contains "pstree" process.Note: the patch doesn't deal with setuid/setgid issues of keeping
preopened descriptors of procfs files (like
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/7/368). We rely on that the leaked
information like the scheduling counters of setuid apps doesn't threaten
anybody's privacy - only the user started the setuid program may read the
counters.Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov

This patch adds new online resize interface, whose input argument is a
64-bit integer indicating how many blocks there are in the resized fs.In new resize impelmentation, all work like allocating group tables
are done by kernel side, so the new resize interface can support
flex_bg feature and prepares ground for suppoting resize with features
like bigalloc and exclude bitmap. Besides these, user-space tools just
passes in the new number of blocks.We delay initializing the bitmaps and inode tables of added groups if
possible and add multi groups (a flex groups) each time, so new resize
is very fast like mkfs.Signed-off-by: Yongqiang Yang
