* mm: prepare for removal of obsolete /proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threadsWanpeng Li2012-07-313-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since per-BDI flusher threads were introduced in 2.6, the pdflush mechanism is not used any more. But the old interface exported through /proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads still exists and is obviously useless. For back-compatibility, printk warning information and return 2 to notify the users that the interface is removed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both V4L2 and V4L2 subdev interface have very similar selection APIs with differences foremost related to in-memory and media bus formats. However, the selection targets are the same for both. Most targets are and in the future will likely continue to be more the same than with any differences. Thus it makes sense to unify the documentation of the targets.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The string "_ACTUAL" does not say anything more about the target names. Drop it.

The meaning of V4L2_SEL_TGT_*_ACTIVE and V4L2_SUBDEV_SEL_TGT_*_ACTUAL selection targets is logically the same. Different names add to confusion where both APIs are used in a single driver or an application. For some system configurations different names may lead to interoperability issues. For backwards compatibility V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP_ACTIVE and V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE_ACTIVE are defined as aliases to V4L2_SEL_TGT_CROP and V4L2_SEL_TGT_COMPOSE. These aliases will be removed after deprecation period, according to Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt.

This patch: The notifier error injection provides the ability to inject artifical errors to specified notifier chain callbacks. It is useful to test the error handling of notifier call chain failures.

This means an admin can unknowningly reintroduce a variation of CVE-2006-2451, allowing local users to gain root privileges. $ cat /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable 2 $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern core $ ulimit -c unlimited $ cd / $ ls -l core ls: cannot access core: No such file or directory $ touch core touch: cannot touch `core': Permission denied $ OHAI="evil-string-here" ping localhost >/dev/null 2>&1 & $ pid=$! $ sleep 1 $ kill -SEGV $pid $ ls -l core -rw------- 1 root kees 458752 Jun 21 11:35 core $ sudo strings core | grep evil OHAI=evil-string-here While cron has been fixed to abort reading a file when there is any parse error, there are still other sensitive directories that will read any file present and skip unparsable lines. Instead of introducing a suid_dumpable=3 mode and breaking all users of mode 2, this only disables the unsafe portion of mode 2 (writing to disk via relative path). Most users of mode 2 (e.g. Chrome OS) already use a core dump pipe handler, so this change will not break them. For the situations where a pipe handler is not defined but mode 2 is still active, crash dumps will only be written to fully qualified paths. If a relative path is defined (e.g. the default "core" pattern), dump attempts will trigger a printk yelling about the lack of a fully qualified path.

Fix up mostly trivial conflicts, with the exception of drivers/usb/host/ehci-omap.c in particular, which had some re-organization of the reset sequence (commit 1a49e2ac9651: "EHCI: centralize controller initialization") that clashed with commit 2761a6394516 ("mfd: USB: Fix the omap-usb EHCI ULPI PHY reset fix issues"). In particular, commit 2761a6394516 moved the usb_add_hcd() to the *middle* of the reset sequence, which clashes fairly badly with the reset sequence re-organization (although it could have been done inside the new omap_ehci_init() function).

After discussing with ASUS' BIOS engineer, they say wake on lid open doesn't have a uniq device ID(0x00120032) in the BIOS. It shares the same device ID with deep S3(0x00120031), and the deep S3(resume on lid open) is disable by default.

To this end several properties that are not part of the declared bindings are added to aid in trimming off unwanted nodes. Since the device tree and the code that trims it are bound into the kernel binary, these 'marker' properties never escape into the wild, and are purely an implementation detail of the kernel early boot process. This is done for backwards compatibility with existing boards (identified by a board type enumeration value by their bootloaders). New boards will always pass a device tree from the bootloader, the built-in trees are ignored in this case.

This patch fixes the test. It checks that device length is divisible by the chunk size and checks that the resulting quotient is divisible by the number of stripes (which is equivalent to testing if device length is divisible by chunk_size * stripes). Previously, the code only tested that the number of sectors in the target was divisible by each of the chunk size and the number of stripes separately, which could leave entire stripes unused. (A setup that genuinely needs some stripes to be shorter than others can be created by concatenating striped targets.)

They contains extensions to DMA-mapping framework to remove limitation of the current ARM implementation (like limited total size of DMA coherent/write combine buffers), improve performance of buffer sharing between devices (attributes to skip cpu cache operations or creation of additional kernel mapping for some specific use cases) as well as some unification of the common code for dma_mmap_attrs() and dma_mmap_coherent() functions. All extensions have been implemented and tested for ARM architecture." * 'for-linus-for-3.6-rc1' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping: ARM: dma-mapping: add support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute common: DMA-mapping: add DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute ARM: dma-mapping: add support for dma_get_sgtable() common: dma-mapping: introduce dma_get_sgtable() function ARM: dma-mapping: add support for DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING attribute common: DMA-mapping: add DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING attribute common: dma-mapping: add support for generic dma_mmap_* calls ARM: dma-mapping: fix error path for memory allocation failure ARM: dma-mapping: add more sanity checks in arm_dma_mmap() ARM: dma-mapping: remove custom consistent dma region mm: vmalloc: use const void * for caller argument scatterlist: add sg_alloc_table_from_pages function

By default dma_map_{single,page,sg} functions family transfer a given buffer from CPU domain to device domain. Some advanced use cases might require sharing a buffer between more than one device. This requires having a mapping created separately for each device and is usually performed by calling dma_map_{single,page,sg} function more than once for the given buffer with device pointer to each device taking part in the buffer sharing. The first call transfers a buffer from 'CPU' domain to 'device' domain, what synchronizes CPU caches for the given region (usually it means that the cache has been flushed or invalidated depending on the dma direction). However, next calls to dma_map_{single,page,sg}() for other devices will perform exactly the same sychronization operation on the CPU cache. CPU cache sychronization might be a time consuming operation, especially if the buffers are large, so it is highly recommended to avoid it if possible. DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC allows platform code to skip synchronization of the CPU cache for the given buffer assuming that it has been already transferred to 'device' domain. This attribute can be also used for dma_unmap_{single,page,sg} functions family to force buffer to stay in device domain after releasing a mapping for it. Use this attribute with care!

On some architectures creating such mapping is non-trivial task and consumes very limited resources (like kernel virtual address space or dma consistent address space). Buffers allocated with this attribute can be only passed to user space by calling dma_mmap_attrs().

This increases the total size limit of the consistent allocations and removes platform hacks and a lot of duplicated code. Atomic allocations are served from special pool preallocated on boot, because vmalloc areas cannot be reliably created in atomic context.
