* [PATCH] lockdep: spin_lock_irqsave_nested()Arjan van de Ven2006-11-252-0/+20

* [PATCH] Enforce "unsigned long flags;" when spinlockingAlexey Dobriyan2006-11-252-14/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make it break or warn if you pass to spin_lock_irqsave() and friends something different from "unsigned long flags;". Suprisingly large amount of these was caught by recent commit c53421b18f205c5f97c604ae55c6a921f034b0f6 and others. Idea is largely from FRV typechecking. Suggestions from Andrew Morton. All stupid typos in first version fixed. Passes allmodconfig on i386, x86_64, alpha, arm as well as my usual config. Note #1: checking with sparse is still needed, because a driver can save and pass around flags or something. So far patch is very intrusive. Note #2: techically, we should break only if sizeof(flags) < sizeof(unsigned long), however, the more pain for getting suspicious code into kernel, the better.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vgetcpu per CPU initialization previously relied on CPU hotplug events for all CPUs to initialize the per CPU state. That only worked only on kernels with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU enabled. On the others some CPUs didn't get their state initialized properly and vgetcpu wouldn't work. Change the initialization sequence to instead run in a normal initcall (which runs after the normal CPU bootup) and initialize all running CPUs there. Later hotplug CPUs are still handled with an hotplug notifier. This actually simplifies the code somewhat. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

* | [PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset tooHugh Dickins2006-11-141-3/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (David:) If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example, because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path. But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't have a machine to test it on. (Hugh:) prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do. Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge mappings into a separate region of the address space.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the case where an open creates the file, we shouldn't be rechecking permissions to open the file; the open succeeds regardless of what the new file's mode bits say. This patch fixes the problem, but only by introducing yet another parameter to nfsd_create_v3. This is ugly. This will be fixed by later patches. Signed-off-by: J.

* x86-64: clean up io-apic accessesLinus Torvalds2006-11-081-34/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is just commit 130fe05dbc0114609cfef9815c0c5580b42decfa ported to x86-64, for all the same reasons. It cleans up the IO-APIC accesses in order to then fix the ordering issues. We move the accessor functions (that were only used by io_apic.c) out of a header file, and use proper memory-mapped accesses rather than making up our own "volatile" pointers.

* | | [PATCH] sysctl: allow a zero ctl_name in the middle of a sysctl tableEric W. Biederman2006-11-061-3/+6
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since it is becoming clear that there are just enough users of the binary sysctl interface that completely removing the binary interface from the kernel will not be an option for foreseeable future, we need to find a way to address the sysctl maintenance issues. The basic problem is that sysctl requires one central authority to allocate sysctl numbers, or else conflicts and ABI breakage occur. The proc interface to sysctl does not have that problem, as names are not densely allocated. By not terminating a sysctl table until I have neither a ctl_name nor a procname, it becomes simple to add sysctl entries that don't show up in the binary sysctl interface. Which allows people to avoid allocating a binary sysctl value when not needed. I have audited the kernel code and in my reading I have not found a single sysctl table that wasn't terminated by a completely zero filled entry. So this change in behavior should not affect anything. I think this mechanism eases the pain enough that combined with a little disciple we can solve the reoccurring sysctl ABI breakage.

The old variant mangled the packet; that got fixed, but calculation itself got buggered. Restored the correct logics, fixed a subtle breakage we used to have even back then: if the sum is 0 mod 0xffff, we want to return 0, not 0xffff. The latter has special meaning for IPX (cheksum disabled). Observation (and obvious fix) nicked from history of FreeBSD ipx_cksum.c...

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I added the entries for the robust futex syscall entries, I forgot to bump NR_SYSCALLS. The current situation is error-prone because NR_SYSCALLS lives in entry.S where the system call limit checks are enforced. Move the definition to asm/unistd.h in order to make this mistake much more difficult to make. And wire up sys_migrate_pages since the powerpc folks implemented the compat wrapper for us.

Add a printk_timed_ratelimit() which utilises caller-provided state storage to permit more flexibility. This function can in fact be used for things other than printk ratelimiting and is perhaps poorly named.
