2006-12-07[PATCH] skip data conversion in compat_sys_mount when data_page is NULLAndrey Mirkin
OpenVZ Linux kernel team has found a problem with mounting in compat mode. Simple command "mount -t smbfs ..." on Fedora Core 5 distro in 32-bit mode leads to oops: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 RIP: compat_sys_mount+0xd6/0x290 Process mount (pid: 14656, veid=300, threadinfo ffff810034d30000, task ffff810034c86bc0) Call Trace: ia32_sysret+0x0/0xa The problem is that data_page pointer can be NULL, so we should skip data conversion in this case.

2006-12-06[MIPS] Compile __do_IRQ() when really neededFranck Bui-Huu
__do_IRQ() is needed only by irq handlers that can't use default handlers defined in kernel/irq/chip.c. For others platforms there's no need to compile this function since it won't be used. For those platforms this patch defines GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO__DO_IRQ symbol which is used exactly for this purpose. Futhermore for platforms which do not use __do_IRQ(), end() method which is part of the 'irq_chip' structure is not used. This patch simply removes this method in this case.

2006-12-06[PATCH] uclinux: fix mmap() of directory for nommu caseMike Frysinger
I was playing with blackfin when i hit a neat bug ... doing an open() on a directory and then passing that fd to mmap() would cause the kernel to hang after poking into the code a bit more, i found that mm/nommu.c:validate_mmap_request() checks the length and if it is 0, just returns the address ... this is in stark contrast to mmu's mm/mmap.c:do_mmap_pgoff() where it returns -EINVAL for 0 length requests ... i then noticed that some other parts of the logic is out of date between the two funcs, so perhaps that's the easy fix ?

2006-12-06sh: sh775x/titan fixes for irq header changes.Jamie Lenehan
The following moves the creation of IPR interupts into setup-7750.c and updates a few other things to make it all work after the "Drop CPU subtype IRQ headers" commit. It boots and runs fine on my titan board. - adds an ipr_idx to the ipr_data and uses a function in the subtype code to calculate the address of the IPR registers - adds a function to enable individual interrupt mode for externals in the subtype code and calls that from the titan board code instead of doing it directly. - I changed the shift in the ipr_data to be the actual # of bits to shift, instead of the numnber / 4 - made it easier to match with the manual.

2006-12-06sh: Turn off IRQs around get_timer_offset() calls.Paul Mundt

2006-12-06sh: Get the PGD right in oops case with 64-bit PTEs.Paul Mundt

This makes the early printk support somewhat more flexible, moving the port definition to a config option, and making the port initialization configurable for sh-ipl+g users. At the same time, this allows us to trivially wire up the SH7780 SCIF0, so that's thrown in too more or less for free. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2006-12-06sh: Fixup various PAGE_SIZE == 4096 assumptions.Paul Mundt
There were a number of places that made evil PAGE_SIZE == 4k assumptions that ended up breaking when trying to play with 8k and 64k page sizes, this fixes those up. The most significant change is the way we load THREAD_SIZE, previously this was done via: mov #(THREAD_SIZE >> 8), reg shll8 reg to avoid a memory access and allow the immediate load. With a 64k PAGE_SIZE, we're out of range for the immediate load size without resorting to special instructions available in later ISAs (movi20s and so on). The "workaround" for this is to bump up the shift to 10 and insert a shll2, which gives a bit more flexibility while still being much cheaper than a memory access.
