* [PATCH] ppc64: add PT_NOTE section to vDSOBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch from Roland adds a PT_NOTE section to both 32 and 64 bits vDSOs to expose the kernel version to glibc, thus avoiding a uname syscall on every launch. This is equivalent to the patches Roland posted already for x86 and x86-64. Note: the 64 bits .note is actually using the 32 bits format. This is normal. The ELF spec specifies a different format for 64 bits .note, but for some reason, this was never properly implemented, the core dumps for example are all using 32 bits format .note, and binutils cannot even read a 64 bits format .note. Talking to our toolchain folks, they think we'd rather stick to 32 bits format .note everywhere and get the spec fixed some day ...

* [PATCH] pmac: save master volume on sleepColin Leroy2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ben's patch that shutdowns master switch and restores it after resume ("pmac: Improve sleep code of tumbler driver") isn't enough here on an iBook (snapper chip). The master switch is correctly saved and restored, but somehow tumbler_put_master_volume() gets called just after tumbler_set_master_volume() and sets mix->master_vol[*] to 0. So, on resuming, the master switch is reenabled, but the volume is set to 0. Here's a patch that also saves and restores master_vol.

* [PATCH] ppc32: add sound support for Mac MiniBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch applies on top of my previous g5 related sound patches and adds support for the Mac Mini to the PowerMac Alsa driver. However, I haven't found any kind of HW support for volume control on this machine. If it exist, it's well hidden. That means that you probably want to make sure you use software with the ability to do soft volume control, or use Alsa 0.9 pre-release with the softvol plugin.

* [PATCH] ppc32: Fix IDE related crash on wakeupBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook (strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing reset on wakeup. This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset. This is safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

* [PATCH] ppc32: Fix errata for some G3 CPUsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some G3 CPUs can crash in funny way if a store from an FPU register instruction is executed on a register that has never been initialized since power on. This patch fixes it by making sure all FP registers have been properly initialized at kernel boot and when waking from sleep.

* [PATCH] SELinux: add finer grained permissions to Netlink audit processingJames Morris2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides finer grained permissions for the audit family of Netlink sockets under SELinux. 1. We need a way to differentiate between privileged and unprivileged reads of kernel data maintained by the audit subsystem. The AUDIT_GET operation is unprivileged: it returns the current status of the audit subsystem (e.g. whether it's enabled etc.). The AUDIT_LIST operation however returns a list of the current audit ruleset, which is considered privileged by the audit folk. To deal with this, a new SELinux permission has been implemented and applied to the operation: nlmsg_readpriv, which can be allocated to appropriately privileged domains. Unprivileged domains would only be allocated nlmsg_read. 2. There is a requirement for certain domains to generate audit events from userspace. These events need to be collected by the kernel, collated and transmitted sequentially back to the audit daemon. An example is user level login, an auditable event under CAPP, where login-related domains generate AUDIT_USER messages via PAM which are relayed back to auditd via the kernel. To prevent handing out nlmsg_write permissions to such domains, a new permission has been added, nlmsg_relay, which is intended for this type of purpose: data is passed via the kernel back to userspace but no privileged information is written to the kernel. Also, AUDIT_LOGIN messages are now valid only for kernel->user messaging, so this value has been removed from the SELinux nlmsgtab (which is only used to check user->kernel messages).

* [PATCH] add kmalloc_node, inline cleanupManfred Spraul2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab allocator: kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node); kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node); in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions: kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags); kmalloc(size, flags); kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor rearrangements). The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages, cache_grow) are already node aware. Also __alloc_percpu can call kmalloc_node now.

* [PATCH] mempool: simplify allocNick Piggin2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mempool is pretty clever. Looks too clever for its own good :) It shouldn't really know so much about page reclaim internals. - don't guess about what effective page reclaim might involve. - don't randomly flush out all dirty data if some unlikely thing happens (alloc returns NULL). page reclaim can (sort of :P) handle it. I think the main motivation is trying to avoid pool->lock at all costs. However the first allocation is attempted with __GFP_WAIT cleared, so it will be 'can_try_harder' if it hits the page allocator. So if allocation still fails, then we can probably afford to hit the pool->lock - and what's the alternative? Try page reclaim and hit zone->lru_lock? A nice upshot is that we don't need to do any fancy memory barriers or do (intentionally) racy access to pool-> fields outside the lock.

* [PATCH] mempool: NOMEMALLOC and NORETRYNick Piggin2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mempools have 2 problems. The first is that mempool_alloc can possibly get stuck in __alloc_pages when they should opt to fail, and take an element from their reserved pool. The second is that it will happily eat emergency PF_MEMALLOC reserves instead of going to their reserved pools. Fix the first by passing __GFP_NORETRY in the allocation calls in mempool_alloc. Fix the second by introducing a __GFP_MEMPOOL flag which directs the page allocator not to allocate from the reserve pool.

The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux, kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user. kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does a full kernel compile before performing the install. In this way they are good for root use. Also added back the dependency on vmlinux for the install target so peoples scripts are no longer broken.

* | [PATCH] ppc64: fix 32-bit signal frame back linkPaul Mackerras2005-04-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kernel creates a signal frame on the user stack, it puts the old stack pointer value at the beginning so that the signal frame is linked into the chain of stack frames like any other frame. Unfortunately, for 32-bit processes we are writing the old stack pointer as a 64-bit value rather than a 32-bit value, and the process sees that as a null pointer, since it only looks at the first 32 bits, which are zero since ppc is bigendian and the stack pointer is below 4GB. This bug is in SLES9 and RHEL4 too, hence the ccs. This patch fixes the bug by making the signal code write the old stack pointer as a u32 instead of an unsigned long.

| * [PATCH] ARM: 2654/1: i.MX UART initialization sets and honors UFCR valueSascha Hauer2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Sascha Hauer This patch adds UCFR_RFDIV setting into i.MX serial driver. This is required, if loader does not fully agree with Linux kernel about UART setup manner. Linux only blindly expected some values until now. This should enable to use even serial ports not recognized by boot-loader as for example third UART found in the bluethoot module. Patch also enables to detect original setup baudrate in more cases.

| * | [PATCH] ARM: 2660/2: fix ixdp2800 boot and pci initLennert Buytenhek2005-04-29

This is problematic as both CPUs will try to configure the PCI bus as they boot linux. Contrary to on the other IXP2000 platforms, the boot loader on the IXDP2800 doesn't configure the PCI bus properly, so we do want the linux instance on one of the CPUs to do that. Making one of the CPUs ignore the PCI bus (and thus act like a pure PCI slave device) is not an option because there is a 82559 NIC on the PCI bus for each of the CPUs. The chosen solution is to have the master CPU configure the PCI bus while the slave is kept in a quiescent state, and then to have the slave CPU scan the PCI bus (without assigning resources) while the master is kept in a quiescent state. After this ritual, the master deletes the slave NIC from its PCI device list, the slave deletes the master NIC from its device list, and (almost) all is well. There's still one little problem: each of the CPUs has a 1G SDRAM BAR, but the IXP2000 only has 512M of outbound PCI memory window. We solve this by hand-assigning the master and slave SDRAM BARs to a location outside each of the IXP's outbound PCI windows, and by having the rest of the BARs autoconfigured in the outbound PCI windows, in the range [e0000000..ffffffff], so that there is a 1:1 pci:phys mapping between them. Even with this patch, a number of issues still remain -- just imagine what happens if one of the CPUs is rebooted, by watchdog or by hand, but the other one isn't. But those issues are not easily fixable given the strange PCI layout of this board and the behavior of the boot loader shipped with the platform.

| * | [PATCH] ARM: 2656/1: Access permission bits are wrong for kernel XIP ↵George G. Davis2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sections on ARMv6 Patch from George G. Davis This patch is required for kernel XIP support on ARMv6 machines. It ensures that the access permission bits for kernel XIP section descriptors are APX=1 and AP[1:0]=01, which is Kernel read-only/User no access permissions. Prior to this change, kernel XIP section descriptor access permissions were set to Kernel no access/User no access on ARMv6 machines and the kernel would therefore hang upon entry to userspace when set_fs(USER_DS) was executed.

| * | [PATCH] ARM: 2649/1: Fix 'sparse -Wbitwise' warnings from MMIO macrosOlav Kongas2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Olav Kongas On ARM, the outX() and writeX() families of macros take the result of cpu_to_leYY(), which is of restricted type __leYY, and feed it to __raw_writeX(), which expect an argument of unrestricted type. This results in 'sparse -Wbitwise' warnings about incorrect types in assignments. Analogous type mismatch warnings are issued for inX() and readX() counterparts. The below patch resolves these warnings by adding forced typecasts. Signed-off-by: Olav Kongas Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
