2006-02-07[PATCH] sys_hpux: fix strlen_user() raceKyle McMartin
Userspace can alter the string after the kernel has run strlen_user(). Also: the strlen_user() return value includes the \0, so fix that. Also: handle EFAULT from strlen_user(). It's unlikely anyone is using this code. Very, very unlikely. If I remember correctly, CONFIG_HPUX turns this code on, but one would actually need CONFIG_BINFMT_SOM to load a binary that could cause a problem, and BINFMT_SOM has had an #error in it for quite some time.

2006-02-07[PATCH] uml: block SIGWINCH in ptrace tester childJeff Dike
The process that UML uses to probe the host's ptrace capabilities can (rarely) receive a SIGWINCH, confusing the parent. This fixes that by blocking SIGWINCH.

2006-02-07[PATCH] uml: balance list_add and list_del in the network driverJeff Dike
The network driver added an interface to the "opened" list when it was configured, not when it was brought up, and removed it when it was taken down. A sequence of ifconfig up, ifconfig down, ... caused it to be removed multiple times from the list without being added in between, resulting in a crash. This patch moves the add to when the interface is brought up.

2006-02-07[PATCH] uml: close TUN/TAP file descriptorsJeff Dike
When UML opens a TUN/TAP device, the file descriptor could be copied into later, long-lived threads, holding the device open even after the interface is taken down, preventing it from being brought up again. This patch makes these descriptors close-on-exec so that they disappear from helper processes, and adds CLONE_FILES to a UML helper thread so that the descriptors are closed in the thread when they are closed elsewhere in UML.

2006-02-07[PATCH] uml: add debug switch for skas modeJeff Dike
It doesn't do anything but emit a warning, but there's a user population that's used to adding 'debug' to the UML command line in order to gdb it. With skas0 mode, that's not necessary, but these users need some indication that 'debug' doesn't do what they want.

2006-02-07[PATCH] __cmpxchg() must really always be inlined on alphaSteve Langasek
With the latest 2.6.15 kernel builds for alpha on Debian, we ran into a problem with undefined references to __cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer() in a couple of kernel modules (xfs.ko and drm.ko; see http://bugs.debian.org/347556). It looks like people have been trying to out-clever each other wrt the definition of "inline" on this architecture :), with the result that __cmpxchg(), which must be inlined so the compiler can see its argument is const, is not guaranteed to be inlined. Indeed, it was not being inlined when building with -Os. The attached patch fixes the issue by adding an __attribute__((always_inline)) explicitly to the definition of __cmpxchg() instead of relying on redefines of "inline" elsewhere to make this happen.

2006-02-07[PATCH] ide: cast arguments to pr_debug() properlyMichael Richardson
This does not show up unless you #define DEBUG in the file, which most people wouldn't do. On PPC405, at least, "sector_t" is unsigned long, which doesn't match %llx/%llu.

2006-02-07[PATCH] Hugepages need clear_user_highpage() not clear_highpage()David Gibson
When hugepages are newly allocated to a file in mm/hugetlb.c, we clear them with a call to clear_highpage() on each of the subpages. We should be using clear_user_highpage(): on powerpc, at least, clear_highpage() doesn't correctly mark the page as icache dirty so if the page is executed shortly after it's possible to get strange results.

2006-02-07[PATCH] x86_64: Fix the node cpumask of a cpu going downRavikiran G Thirumalai
Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits in the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled. This is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is checked in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in the slab down path). PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This was the reason Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and could not reproduce on other arches). This patch fixes it for x86_64. I won't attempt ia64 as I cannot test it. Credit for spotting this should go to Alok. (akpm: this was applied, then reverted. But it's OK now because we now use for_each_cpu() in the right places).

2006-02-07[MIPS] TX49x7: Fix reporting of the CPU name and PCI clockSergei Shtylylov
I've noticed that PCI clock was incorrectly reported as 66 MHz while being mere 33 MHz on RBTX4937 board -- this was due to the different encoding of the PCI divisor field in CCFG register between TX4927 and TX4937 chips... Also, RBTX49x7 was printed out as a CPU name (e.g., "CPU is RBTX4937"); and some debug printk() were duplicating each other...

2006-02-07[MIPS] TX49 MFC0 bug workaroundAtsushi Nemoto
If mfc0 $12 follows store and the mfc0 is last instruction of a page and fetching the next instruction causes TLB miss, the result of the mfc0 might wrongly contain EXL bit. ERT-TX49H2-027, ERT-TX49H3-012, ERT-TX49HL3-006, ERT-TX49H4-008 Workaround: mask EXL bit of the result or place a nop before mfc0.
