* Revert "kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code"Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit c02e3f361c7 ("kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code") The patch is wrong. UMH_WAIT_EXEC is called with VFORK what ensures that the child finishes prior returing back to the parent. No race. In fact, the patch makes it even worse because it does the thing it claims not do: - It calls ->complete() on UMH_WAIT_EXEC - the complete() callback may de-allocated subinfo as seen in the following call chain: [<c009f904>] (__link_path_walk+0x20/0xeb4) from [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) from [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) from [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) from [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) from [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) from [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) from [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) from [<c0024858>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8) and the path pointer was NULL. Good that ARM's kernel_execve() doesn't check the pointer for NULL or else I wouldn't notice it. The only race there might be is with UMH_NO_WAIT but it is too late for me to investigate it now. UMH_WAIT_PROC could probably also use VFORK and we could save one exec. So the only race I see is with UMH_NO_WAIT and recent scheduler changes where the child does not always run first might have trigger here something but as I said, it is late....

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The serio ports on i8042 are not completely isolated; while we provide enough locking to ensure proper serialization when accessing control and data registers AUX and KBD ports can still have an effect on each other on PS/2 protocol level. The most prominent effect is that issuing a command for the device connected to one port may cause abort of the command currently executing by the device connected to another port. Since i8042 nor serio subsystem are not aware of the details of the PS/2 protocol (length of the commands and their replies and so on) the locking should be done on libps2 level by adding special handling when we see that we are dealing with serio port on i8042.

| * | kbuild: Don't define ALIGN and ENTRY when preprocessing linker scripts.Tim Abbott2009-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding a reference to <linux/linkage.h> to x86's <asm/cache.h> causes the x86 linker script to have syntax errors, because the ALIGN and ENTRY keywords get redefined to the assembly implementations of those. One could fix this by adjusting the include structure, but I think any solution based on that approach would be fragile. Currently, it is impossible when writing a header to do something different for assembly files and linker scripts, even though there are clearly cases where one wants them to define macros differently for the two (ENTRY being an excellent example). So I think the right solution here is to introduce a new preprocessor definition, called LINKER_SCRIPT that is set along with __ASSEMBLY__ for linker scripts, and to use that to not define ALIGN and ENTRY in linker scripts. I suspect we'll find other uses for this mechanism in the future. Signed-off-by: Tim Abbott <tabbott@ksplice.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds. This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile, or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh) Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script. This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where it is used. Notes for the different architectures touched: arm - we use an already exported symbol cris - we use a config symbol aleady available [Not build tested] mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it. Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by the linker script.

| * | kbuild: save ARCH & CROSS_COMPILE when building a kernelSam Ravnborg2009-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When building a kernel for a different architecture kbuild requires the user always to specify ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE on the command-line. We use the asm symlink to detect if user forgets to specify the correct ARCH value - but that symlink is about to die. And we do now want to loose this check. This patch save the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE in two files named: include/generated/kernel.arch include/generated/kernel.cross The settings are saved during "make *config" time and always read. If user try to change the settings we error out. This works both for plain builds and for O=... builds. So now you can do: $ mkdir sparc64 $ make O=sparc64 ARCH=sparc64 CROSS_COMPILE=sparc64-linux- defconfig $ cd sparc64 $ make Notice that you no longer need to tell kbuild the settings of ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE when you type make in the output directory. Likewise for plain builds where you do not use O=... Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>
| * | kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel scriptSam Ravnborg2009-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL to select a custom installkernel script when running make: make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install With this patch we are now more consistent across different architectures - they did not all support use of CROSS_COMPILE. The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change just because we change toolchain. The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no longer be installable. [Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint] This patch undos what Ian did in commit: 0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46 ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh") The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes looks obvious.

This is now required as commit: commit c02d7adf8c5429727a98bad1d039bccad4c61c50 Author: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Date: Mon Jun 22 15:09:14 2009 -0400 NFSv4: Replace nfs4_path_walk() with VFS path lookup in a private namespace uses VFS-driven automounting to reach all submounts barring the root, thus preventing fscaching from being enabled on any submount other than the root. This patch gets around that by propagating the NFS_OPTION_FSCACHE flag across automounts. If a uniquifier is supplied to a mount then this is propagated to all automounts of that mount too.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allocating nfs_parsed_mount_data and setting up the defaults is nearly the same for both nfs and nfs4 mounts. Both paths seem to use nfs_validate_transport_protocol(), so setting a default value for nfs_server.protocol ought to be unnecessary.
