| * | hwmon: Fault files naming conventionJean Delvare2007-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have the following naming convention documented in Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for fault files: in[0-*]_input_fault fan[1-*]_input_fault temp[1-*]_input_fault Some drivers follow this convention (lm63, lm83, lm90, smsc47m192). However some drivers omit the "input" part and create files named fan1_fault (pc87427) or temp1_fault (dme1737). And the new "generic" libsensors follows this second (non-standard) convention, so it fails to report fault conditions for drivers which follow the standard. We want a single naming scheme, and everyone seems to prefer the shorter variant, so let's go for it. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

Since user-space hasn't had time to run, this array is still in pristine state on the process' stack; so no need to copy it, we can just grab it from there. In order to minimize the damage to audit_log_*() copy each string into a temporary kernel buffer first. Currently the audit code requires that the full argument vector fits in a single packet. So currently it does clip the argv size to a (sysctl) limit, but only when execve auditing is enabled. If the audit protocol gets extended to allow for multiple packets this check can be removed.

We now return an int, which contains VM_FAULT_xxx code in the low byte, and FAULT_RET_xxx code in the next byte. FAULT_RET_ code tells the VM whether a page was found, whether it has been locked, and potentially other things. This is not quite the way he wanted it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to arch code). This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were going to do that anyway. struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use without really good reason. The page is now returned via a page pointer in the vm_fault struct.

* | | mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear)Nick Piggin2007-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

Currently Chinese involvement in Linux kernel is very low, especially comparing to its largest population base. Language could be the main obstacle. Hope this document will help more Chinese to contribute to Linux kernel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mthca driver supports both MSI and MSI-X. However, MSI-X works with all hardware that the driver handles, and provides a superset of what MSI does, so there's no point in having code for both. Schedule MSI support for removal in 2008 to give anyone who actually needs MSI and who can't use MSI time to speak up. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
