<id>c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6</id>
<content type='text'>
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

<title>[S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses</title>

<id>050eef364ad700590a605a0749f825cab4834b1e</id>
<content type='text'>
The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
logic independent from the mm_users field.

<title>tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE</title>

<id>26df6d13406d1a53b0bda08bd712f1924affd7cd</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6: (96 commits)
  no need for list_for_each_entry_safe()/resetting with superblock list
  Fix sget() race with failing mount
  vfs: don't hold s_umount over close_bdev_exclusive() call
  sysv: do not mark superblock dirty on remount
  sysv: do not mark superblock dirty on mount
  btrfs: remove junk sb_dirt change
  BFS: clean up the superblock usage
  AFFS: wait for sb synchronization when needed
  AFFS: clean up dirty flag usage
  cifs: truncate fallout
  mbcache: fix shrinker function return value
  mbcache: Remove unused features
  add f_flags to struct statfs(64)
  pass a struct path to vfs_statfs
  update VFS documentation for method changes.
  All filesystems that need invalidate_inode_buffers() are doing that explicitly
  convert remaining -&gt;clear_inode() to -&gt;evict_inode()
  Make -&gt;drop_inode() just return whether inode needs to be dropped
  fs/inode.c:clear_inode() is gone
  fs/inode.c:evict() doesn't care about delete vs. non-delete paths now
  ...

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/nilfs2/super.c

<title>mm: provide init_mm mm_context initializer</title>

Provide an INIT_MM_CONTEXT intializer macro which can be used to
statically initialize mm_struct:mm_context of init_mm.  This way we can
get rid of code which will do the initialization at run time (on s390).

In addition the current code can be found at a place where it is not
expected.  So let's have a common initializer which architectures
can use if needed.

This is based on a patch from Suzuki Poulose.
