* [PATCH] aio: remove unlocked task_list test and resulting raceZach Brown2005-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list. The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY users, are updated.

| * [SPARC64]: Simplify user fault fixup handling.David S. Miller2005-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of doing byte-at-a-time user accesses to figure out where the fault occurred, read the saved fault_address from the current thread structure. For the sake of defensive programming, if the fault_address does not fall into the user buffer range, simply assume the whole area faulted. This will cause the fixup for copy_from_user() to clear the entire kernel side buffer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | [PATCH] Keys: Add possessor permissions to keys [try #3]David Howells2005-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key targets using the LSM facilities. This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *) that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer. The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as it's not an intrinsic property of a key. Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever possession information needs to be passed through. This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on return from kmem_cache_alloc(). The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all reference variables should now end in "_ref".

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the ZERO_PAGE remapping complexity to the move_pte macro in asm-generic, have it conditionally depend on __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, which gets defined for MIPS. For architectures without __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, move_pte becomes a noop. From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Fix nasty little bug we've missed in Nick's mremap move ZERO_PAGE patch. The "pte" at that point may be a swap entry or a pte_file entry: we must check pte_present before perhaps corrupting such an entry. Patch below against 2.6.14-rc2-mm1, but the same bug is in 2.6.14-rc2's mm/mremap.c, and more dangerous there since it's affecting all arches: I think the safest course is to send Nick's patch and Yoichi's build fix and this fix (build tested) on to Linus - so only MIPS can be affected.

| * | [SPARC64]: Probe D/I/E-cache config and use.David S. Miller2005-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At boot time, determine the D-cache, I-cache and E-cache size and line-size. Use them in cache flushes when appropriate. This change was motivated by discovering that the D-cache on UltraSparc-IIIi and later are 64K not 32K, and the flushes done by the Cheetah error handlers were assuming a 32K size. There are still some pieces of code that are hard coding things and will need to be fixed up at some point. While we're here, fix the D-cache and I-cache parity error handlers to run with interrupts disabled, and when the trap occurs at trap level > 1 log the event via a counter displayed in /proc/cpuinfo.

| * | [SPARC64]: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support.David S. Miller2005-09-25

We first take over the trap table from the firmware. Then, using this constant PTE generation for the linear mapping area above, we build the kernel page tables for the linear mapping. After this is setup, we patch that branch above into a "nop", which will cause TLB misses to fall through to the full page table walk. With this, the page unmapping for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is trivial. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * | [SPARC64]: Rewrite bootup sequence.David S. Miller2005-09-22

What we do now is the following in position independant assembler: chosen_node = prom_finddevice("/chosen"); prom_mmu_ihandle_cache = prom_getint(chosen_node, "mmu"); vaddr = 4MB_ALIGN(current_text_addr()); prom_translate(vaddr, &paddr_high, &paddr_low, &mode); prom_boot_mapping_mode = mode; prom_boot_mapping_phys_high = paddr_high; prom_boot_mapping_phys_low = paddr_low; prom_map(-1, 8 * 1024 * 1024, KERNBASE, paddr_low); and that replaces the massive amount of by-hand TLB probing and programming we used to do here. The new code should also handle properly the case where the kernel is mapped at the correct address already (think: future kexec support). Consequently, the bulk of remap_kernel() dies as does the entirety of arch/sparc64/prom/map.S We try to share some strings in the PROM library with the ones used at bootup, and while we're here mark input strings to oplib.h routines with "const" when appropriate. There are many more simplifications now possible. For one thing, we can consolidate the two copies we now have of a lot of cpu setup code sitting in head.S and trampoline.S. This is a significant step towards CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
