2009-08-18kconfig: unset IKCONFIG_PROC and clean up nestingSteven Rostedt
Due to cut and paste error IKCONFIG was both set and cleared. It was suppose to be IKCONFIG_PROC to be cleared. Also cleaned up if nesting. Reported-by: Alan Jenkins <sourcejedi.lkml@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: search for a config to base the local(mod|yes)config onSteven Rostedt
Instead of using the .config in the local directory. This patch changes streamline_config.pl to search various locations for a config. Here's the list and order of search: /proc/config.gz /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` vmlinux # local to the directory /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/kernel/configs.ko kernel/configs.ko kernel/configs.o .config Once it finds a file that contains a config (it checks if the binary objects have configs first) it then uses it to create the .config with minimum modules needed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: keep config.gz around even if CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is not setSteven Rostedt
If CONFIG_IKCONFIG is set but CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is not, then gcc will optimize the config.gz out, because nobody uses it. This patch adds "__used" to the config.gz data to keep it around so that code like extract-ikconfig can still find it. [ Impact: allow extract-ikconfig to find config.gz ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: have extract-ikconfig read ELF filesSteven Rostedt
It would be nice to use extract-ikconfig to find the congfig.gz in either vmlinux (not vmlinuz) or configs.ko. This patch changes the script to also be able to read ELF files directly. [ Impact: find config.gz in vmlinux and configs.ko ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: add check if end exists in extract-ikconfigSteven Rostedt
Both start and end should be tested for existence before continuing to parse the config.gz file. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG from streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Ingo Molnar suggested that the streamline_config.pl should enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG to keep the current config in the kernel. Then we can use scripts/extract-ikconfig to find the current modules. This patch changes streamline_config.pl to check if CONFIG_IKCONFIG is not set, and if it is not, it enables it to be a module. [ Impact: make current config options easier to find ] Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: do not warn about modules built inSteven Rostedt
The streamline_config.pl finds all the configs that are needed to compile the currently loaded modules. After it creates the .config file, it tests to make sure all the configs that are needed were set. It only looks at the configs that are modules, it does not look at the builtin configs. This causes unnecessary warnings about modules not being covered. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: streamline_config.pl do not stop with no dependsSteven Rostedt
If a config does not have a prompt, it must be selected. streamline_config.pl keeps track of all configs that select other configs. If a config that does not have a prompt needs to be set to enable a current module, it will include all configs that select it. Note, streamline_config.pl does not enable modules that are not already enabled. It only keeps enabled those that were enabled and might be needed to compile the current modules. The code to find the selects of a config is after the code that adds the depends. But if a config needed selects but had no dependencies, it would not be set. Because the code would stop before getting to the select. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: add make localyesconfig optionSteven Rostedt
This adds the option localyesconfig to make. This is similar to localmodconfig, but after it removes unnecessary modules it runs sed -i s/=m/=y/ on the .config file. It then runs "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that were created by the conversion of modules to core. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: make localmodconfig to run streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Running the streamline_config.pl script manually can still be confusing for some users. This patch adds the localmodconfig option. This will automatically run streamline_config.pl on the current .config and then run "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that might have been created. $ make localmodconfig This will remove any module configurations in .config that are not needed to compile the modules that are loaded. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: add streamline_config.pl to scriptsSteven Rostedt
streamline_config.pl is a very powerful tool. For those that install a kernel to a new box using the config file from the distribution know that it can take forever to compile the kernel. Making a custom config file that will still boot your box, but bring down the compile time of the kernel can be quit painful, and to ask someone that reported a bug to do this can be a large burdon since that person may not even know how to build a kernel. This script will perform "lsmod" to find all the modules loaded on the current running system. It will read all the Makefiles to map which CONFIG enables a module. It will read the Kconfig files to find the dependencies and selects that may be needed to support a CONFIG. Finally, it reads the .config file and removes any module "=m" that is not needed to enable the currently loaded modules. The output goes to standard out. Here's a way to run the script. From the Linux directory that holds a distribution .config. $ scripts/kconfig/streamline_config.pl arch/x86/Kconfig > config-sl $ mv .config config-save $ mv config-sl .config $ make oldconfig Now you have a .config that will still build all your modules, but also take much less time to build the kernel.

If node_load[] is cleared everytime build_zonelists() is called,node_load[] will have no help to find the next node that should appear in the given node's fallback list. Because of the bug, zonelist's node_order is not calculated as expected. This bug affects on big machine, which has asynmetric node distance.

2009-08-18mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value"KOSAKI Motohiro
The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM. However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process. Why? His program has the code of similar to the following. ... set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */ ... if (vfork() == 0) { set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */ execve("foo-bar-cmd"); } .... vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler) lost OOM immune and it was killed. Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program. We must not break this assumption. Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

In 5e140dfc1fe87eae27846f193086724806b33c7d "net: reorder struct Qdisc for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to userland via netlink. Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason. Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land, using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic) Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

2009-08-17inotify: start watch descriptor count at 1Eric Paris
The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will return a non-negative integer. However, historically the inotify watches started at 1, not at 0. Turns out that the inotifywait program provided by the inotify-tools package doesn't properly handle a 0 watch descriptor. In 7e790dd5 we changed from starting at 1 to starting at 0. This patch starts at 1, just like in previous kernels, but also just like in previous kernels it's possible for it to wrap back to 0.

2009-08-17x86, mce: Don't initialize MCEs on unknown CPUsIngo Molnar
An older test-box started hanging at the following point during bootup: [ 0.022996] Mount-cache hash table entries: 512 [ 0.024996] Initializing cgroup subsys debug [ 0.025996] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuacct [ 0.026995] Initializing cgroup subsys devices [ 0.027995] Initializing cgroup subsys freezer [ 0.028995] mce: CPU supports 5 MCE banks I've bisected it down to commit 4efc0670 ("x86, mce: use 64bit machine check code on 32bit"), which utilizes the MCE code on 32-bit systems too. The problem is caused by this detail in my config: # CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL is not set This disables the quirks in mce_cpu_quirks() but still enables MCE support - which then hangs due to the missing quirk workaround needed on this CPU: if (c->x86 == 6 && c->x86_model < 0x1A && banks > 0) mce_banks[0].init = 0; The safe solution is to not initialize MCEs if we dont know on what CPU we are running (or if that CPU's support code got disabled in the config). Also be a bit more defensive on 32-bit systems: dont do a boot-time dump of pending MCEs not just on the specific system that we found a problem with (Pentium-M), but earlier ones as well. Now this problem is probably not common and disabling CPU support is rare - but still being more defensive in something we turned on for a wide range of CPUs is prudent.

2009-08-17xfs: fix locking in xfs_iget_cache_hitChristoph Hellwig
The locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit currently has numerous problems: - we clear the reclaim tag without i_flags_lock which protects modifications to it - we call inode_init_always which can sleep with pag_ici_lock held (this is oss.sgi.com BZ #819) - we acquire and drop i_flags_lock a lot and thus provide no consistency between the various flags we set/clear under it This patch fixes all that with a major revamp of the locking in the function. The new version acquires i_flags_lock early and only drops it once we need to call into inode_init_always or before calling xfs_ilock.

2009-08-17Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addrEric Paris
Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable. This patch causes SELinux to ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how much space the LSM should protect. The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR. This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to map some area of low memory.

2009-08-17SELinux: call cap_file_mmap in selinux_file_mmapEric Paris
Currently SELinux does not check CAP_SYS_RAWIO in the file_mmap hook. This means there is no DAC check on the ability to mmap low addresses in the memory space. This function adds the DAC check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO while maintaining the selinux check on mmap_zero. This means that processes which need to mmap low memory will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO and mmap_zero but will NOT need the SELinux sys_rawio capability.

2009-08-17Capabilities: move cap_file_mmap to commoncap.cEric Paris
Currently we duplicate the mmap_min_addr test in cap_file_mmap and in security_file_mmap if !CONFIG_SECURITY. This patch moves cap_file_mmap into commoncap.c and then calls that function directly from security_file_mmap ifndef CONFIG_SECURITY like all of the other capability checks are done.

2009-08-15cnic: Fix locking in init/exit calls.Michael Chan
The slow path ulp_init and ulp_exit calls to the bnx2i driver are sleepable calls and therefore should not be protected using rcu_read_lock. Fix it by using mutex and refcount during these calls. cnic_unregister_driver() will now wait for the refcount to go to zero before completing the call.
