* user_ns: improve the user_ns on-the-slab packagingPavel Emelyanov2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently on 64-bit arch the user_namespace is 2096 and when being kmalloc-ed it resides on a 4k slab wasting 2003 bytes. If we allocate a separate cache for it and reduce the hash size from 128 to 64 chains the packaging becomes *much* better - the struct is 1072 bytes and the hole between is 98 bytes.

* rapidio: add definitions of Component Tag fieldsAlexandre Bounine2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add definition of the unique device identifier field in the component tag. RIO_CTAG_UDEVID does not take all 32 bits of the component tag value to allow future extensions to the component tag use. Selected size of the RIO_CTAG_UDEVID field (17 bits) is sufficient to accommodate maximum number of endpoints in large RIO network (16-bit id) plus switches.

* rapidio: integrate rio_switch into rio_devAlexandre Bounine2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert RIO switches device structures (rio_dev + rio_switch) into a single allocation unit. This change is based on the fact that RIO switches are using common RIO device objects anyway. Allocating RIO switch objects as RIO devices with added space for switch information simplifies handling of RIO switch devices.

* rapidio: use common destid storage for endpoints and switchesAlexandre Bounine2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change code to use one storage location common for switches and endpoints. This eliminates unnecessary device type checks during basic access operations. Logic that assigns destid to RIO devices stays unchanged - as before, switches use an associated destid because they do not have their own.

* drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c: add some additional cs5535-specific GPIO ↵Andres Salomon2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | functionality This adds (well, re-adds actually) handling for events/IRQs through cs5535 GPIOs. In the wild and wooly world of CS5535, setup_event() is for assigning an IRQ to a GPIO filter/event pair, and set_irq() sets up the pair to trigger IRQs. These should really only be used in highly platform-specific drivers (such as OLPC's DCON driver). Sadly, because set_irq() uses MSRs, this causes the driver to become X86-specific.

* kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged usersDan Rosenberg2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict sysctl. The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers, specifically via /proc interfaces. Exposing these pointers provides an easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function pointers. The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl. If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior occurs. If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's. If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's regardless of privileges. Replacing with 0's was chosen over the default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects "(nil)".

* include/linux/kernel.h: abs(): fix handling of 32-bit unsigneds on 64-bitAndrew Morton2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Michal reports: In the framebuffer subsystem the abs() macro is often used as a part of the calculation of a Manhattan metric, which in turn is used as a measure of similarity between video modes. The arguments of abs() are sometimes unsigned numbers. This worked fine until commit a49c59c0 ("Make sure the value in abs() does not get truncated if it is greater than 2^32:) , which changed the definition of abs() to prevent truncation. As a result of this change, in the following piece of code: u32 a = 0, b = 1; u32 c = abs(a - b); 'c' will end up with a value of 0xffffffff instead of the expected 0x1. A problem caused by this change and visible by the end user is that framebuffer drivers relying on functions from modedb.c will fail to find high resolution video modes similar to that explicitly requested by the user if an exact match cannot be found (see e.g. Fix this by special-casing `long' types within abs(). This patch reduces x86_64 code size a bit - drivers/video/uvesafb.o shrunk by 15 bytes, presumably because it is doing abs() on 4-byte quantities, and expanding those to 8-byte longs adds code. testcase: #define oldabs(x) ({ \ long __x = (x); \ (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \ }) #define newabs(x) ({ \ long ret; \ if (sizeof(x) == sizeof(long)) { \ long __x = (x); \ ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \ } else { \ int __x = (x); \ ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x; \ } \ ret; \ }) typedef unsigned int u32; main() { u32 a = 0; u32 b = 1; u32 oldc = oldabs(a - b); u32 newc = newabs(a - b); printf("%u %u\n", oldc, newc); } akpm:/home/akpm> gcc t.c akpm:/home/akpm> ./a.out 4294967295 1 Reported-by: Michal Januszewski <michalj@gmail.com> Cc: Rolf Eike Beer <eike-kernel@sf-tec.de Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* leds-lp5521: modify the way of setting led device nameArun Murthy2011-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the led device name is fetched from the device_type in I2C_BOARD_INFO which comes from the platform data. This name is in turn used to create an entry in sysfs. If there exists two or more lp5521 on a particular platform, the device_type in I2C_BOARD_INFO has to be the same, else lp5521 driver probe wont be called and if used so, results in run time warning "cannot create sysfs with same name" and hence a failure. The name that is used to create sysfs entry is to be passed by the struct led_platform_data. Hence adding an element of type const char * and change in lp5521 driver to use this name in creating the led device if present else use the name obtained by I2C_BOARD_INFO.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv4 over firewire needs to be able to remove ARP entries from the ARP cache that belong to nodes that are removed, because IPv4 over firewire uses ARP packets for private information about nodes. This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet. But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(), so it only concerns itself with GSO features. However, several other places also should take into account the contents of the packet when deciding whether to offload to hardware. This generalizes the function to return features about all of the various forms of offloading. Since offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum logic).

The alternative is to use the direct mapping to access page data for the case when we are not crossing a page boundary, but to copy the data into a linear scratch buffer when we are accessing data that spans page boundaries.

| * | | | NFSv4: Ensure continued open and lockowner name uniquenessTrond Myklebust2011-01-06

In particular, if we are to move the state_owner and state_owner_id to being a per-filesystem structure, then we should label the resulting open/lock owners with a per-filesytem label to ensure global uniqueness. This patch does so by adding the super block s_dev to the open/lock owner name. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

When a server file system is migrated, delegations on the client must be moved from the source to the destination nfs_server. Make it easier to manage a mount point's delegation list across a migration event by moving the list to the nfs_server struct. Clean up: I added documenting comments to public functions I changed in this patch. For consistency I added comments to all the other public functions in fs/nfs/delegation.c.

To make that easier, move the cl_state_owners field to the nfs_server struct. cl_openowner_id and cl_lockowner_id accompany this move, as they are used in conjunction with cl_state_owners. The cl_lock field in the parent nfs_client continues to protect all three of these fields.
