* [PATCH] move capable() to capability.hRandy.Dunlap2006-01-1141-9/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | - Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h; - Use <linux/capability.h> where capable() is used (in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/, mm/, security/, & sound/; many more drivers/ to go) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] uninline capable()Ingo Molnar2006-01-112-12/+13
| | | | | | | | | | Uninline capable(). Saves 2K of kernel text on a generic .config, and 1K on a tiny config. In addition it makes the use of capable more consistent between CONFIG_SECURITY and !CONFIG_SECURITY Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] ipmi: use CONFIG_DMI instead of CONFIG_X86Matt Domsch2006-01-111-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With Andi Kleen's x86_64 patch to use DMI, and my ia64 to use DMI, there is now a new CONFIG_DMI option which takes the place of CONFIG_X86 to denote the availability of the DMI functions. Make the IPMI driver use CONFIG_DMI instead. Tested on ia64 2.6.15 kernel plus the previous patch, on a Dell PowerEdge 7250 Itanium2 server, and it now autodetects the IPMI KCS driver as expected.

* [PATCH] kprobes: fix race in recovery of reentrant probeKeshavamurthy Anil S2006-01-115-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit on some different cpu. In this case probe handlers can't find a matching probe instance related to break address. In this case we need to read the original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3 instruction and recover safely. Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race. Tested on IA64, Powerpc, x86_64.

* [PATCH] kprobes: fix unloading of self probed moduleKeshavamurthy Anil S2006-01-112-10/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a kprobes modules is written in such a way that probes are inserted on itself, then unload of that moudle was not possible due to reference couning on the same module. The below patch makes a check and incrementes the module refcount only if it is not a self probed module. We need to allow modules to probe themself for kprobes performance measurements This patch has been tested on several x86_64, ppc64 and IA64 architectures.

* [PATCH] reiserfs: fix assertion failure in reiserfs+journaled quotasJan Kara2006-01-111-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes we call do_journal_end() with t_refcount == 0. If quota is turned on and we happen to have some inode with preallocation bad things happen as we try to use the current handle for quota operations. Checks for t_refcount in journal_begin() fail and we Oops. We raise t_refcount to make those checks happy. We should not cause any bad as all the needed quota blocks should be already attached to the transaction (they were attached to the transaction when we allocated those preallocation blocks).

* [PATCH] uml: fix missing KBUILD_BASENAMEJeff Dike2006-01-114-20/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a header. The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile. This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the KBUILD_BASENAME token. With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited string, so there needs to be a definition of it. Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c, and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into asm-offsets.c. kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e. sys-i386 and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel. kernel-offsets.c is moved to arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c. With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is generated automatically. kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't. So, a symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.
