2008-05-01m68knommu: fix signal handling return pathWilson Callan
The return from software signal handling pushes code on the stack that system calls to the kernels cleanup code. This is borrowed directly from the m68k linux signal handler. The rt signal case is not quite right for the restricted instruction set of the ColdFire parts. And neither the normal signal case or rt signal case properly flushes/pushes the appropriate cache lines. Rework the return path to just call back through some code fragments in the kernel proper (with no MMU in the way we can do this). No cache problems, and less code overall. Original patch submitted by Wilson Callan <wcallan@savantav.com> Greg fixed the rt signal return path to use the proper system call Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-05-01autofs4: fix incorrect return from root.c:try_to_fill_dentry()Jeff Moyer
Jeff Moyer has identified a case where the autofs4 function root.c:try_to_fill_dentry() can return -EBUSY when it should return 0. Jeff's description of the way this happens is: "automount starts an expire for directory d. after the callout to the daemon, but before the rmdir, another process tries to walk into the same directory. It puts itself onto the waitq, pending the expiration. When the expire finishes, the second process is woken up. In try_to_fill_dentry, it does this check: status = d_invalidate(dentry); if (status != -EBUSY) return -EAGAIN; And status is EBUSY. The dentry still has a non-zero d_inode, and the flags do not contain LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_DIRECTORY So, we fall through and return -EBUSY to the caller."

2008-05-01autofs4: fix execution order race in mount request codeJeff Moyer
Jeff Moyer has identified a race in due to an execution order dependency in the autofs4 function root.c:try_to_fill_dentry(). Jeff's description of this race is: "P1 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. Since the VFS can't find an entry for "foo" under /mount/submount, it calls into the autofs4 kernel module to allocate a new dentry, D1. The kernel creates a new waitq for this lookup and calls the daemon to perform the mount. The daemon performs a mkdir of the "foo" directory under /mount/submount, which ends up creating a *new* dentry, D2. Then, P2 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. The VFS path walking logic finds a dentry in the dcache, D2, and calls the revalidate function with this. In the autofs4 revalidate code, we then trigger a mount, since the dentry is an empty directory that isn't a mountpoint, and so set DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING and call into the wait code to trigger the mount. The wait code finds our existing waitq entry (since it is keyed off of the directory name) and adds itself to the list of waiters. After the daemon finishes the mount, it calls back into the kernel to release the waiters. When this happens, P1 is woken up and goes about clearing the DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag, but it does this in D1! So, given that P1 in our case is a program that will immediately try to access a file under /mount/submount/foo, we end up finding the dentry D2 which still has the pending flag set, and we set out to wait for a mount *again*! So, one way to address this is to re-do the lookup at the end of try_to_fill_dentry, and to clear the pending flag on the hashed dentry. This seems a sane approach to me." And Jeff's patch does this.

2008-05-01kexec: make extended crashkernel= syntax less confusingMichael Ellerman
The extended crashkernel syntax is a little confusing in the way it handles ranges. eg: crashkernel=512M-2G:64M,2G-:128M Means if the machine has between 512M and 2G of memory the crash region should be 64M, and if the machine has 2G of memory the region should be 64M. Only if the machine has more than 2G memory will 128M be allocated. Although that semantic is correct, it is somewhat baffling. Instead I propose that the end of the range means the first address past the end of the range, ie: 512M up to but not including 2G.

2008-05-01vfs: fix permission checking in sys_utimensatMiklos Szeredi
If utimensat() is called with both times set to UTIME_NOW or one of them to UTIME_NOW and the other to UTIME_OMIT, then it will update the file time without any permission checking. I don't think this can be used for anything other than a local DoS, but could be quite bewildering at that (e.g. "Why was that large source tree rebuilt when I didn't modify anything???") This affects all kernels from 2.6.22, when the utimensat() syscall was introduced. Fix by doing the same permission checking as for the "times == NULL" case. Thanks to Michael Kerrisk, whose utimensat-non-conformances-and-fixes.patch in -mm also fixes this (and breaks other stuff), only he didn't realize the security implications of this bug.

2008-05-01sysfs: sysfs_update_group stub for CONFIG_SYSFS=nRandy Dunlap
scsi_transport_spi uses sysfs_update_group() when CONFIG_SYSFS=n, so provide a stub for it. next-20080423/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c:1467: error: implicit declaration of function 'sysfs_update_group' make[3]: *** [drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.o] Error 1 Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-05-01Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison functionDavid Brownell
Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison function, which ignores the trailing newlines found in sysfs inputs. By example: sysfs_streq("a", "b") ==> false sysfs_streq("a", "a") ==> true sysfs_streq("a", "a\n") ==> true sysfs_streq("a\n", "a") ==> true This is intended to simplify parsing of sysfs inputs, letting them avoid the need to manually strip off newlines from inputs.

2008-05-01ntp: handle leap second via timerRoman Zippel
Remove the leap second handling from second_overflow(), which doesn't have to check for it every second anymore. With CONFIG_NO_HZ this also makes sure the leap second is handled close to the full second. Additionally this makes it possible to abort a leap second properly by resetting the STA_INS/STA_DEL status bits.

2008-05-01ntp: remove current_tick_length()Roman Zippel
current_tick_length used to do a little more, but now it just returns tick_length, which we can also access directly at the few places, where it's needed.

2008-05-01ntp: rename TICK_LENGTH_SHIFT to NTP_SCALE_SHIFTRoman Zippel
As TICK_LENGTH_SHIFT is used for more than just the tick length, the name isn't quite approriate anymore, so this renames it to NTP_SCALE_SHIFT.

2008-05-01ntp: support for TAIRoman Zippel
This adds support for setting the TAI value (International Atomic Time). The value is reported back to userspace via timex (as we don't have a ntp_gettime() syscall).
