2008-08-01[IA64] Move include/asm-ia64 to arch/ia64/include/asmTony Luck
After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups: 1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h> 2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these comments to use the new include paths. 3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just deleted these self references.

2008-08-01au1xmmc: raise segment size limit.Manuel Lauss
Raise the DMA block size limit from 2048 bytes to the maximum supported by the DMA controllers on the chip (64KB on Au1100, 4MB on Au1200). This gives a very small performance boost and apparently fixes an oops when MMC-DMA and network traffic are active at the same time.

output. When the "status_get->mask" is "AUDIT_STATUS_RATE_LIMIT || AUDIT_STATUS_BACKLOG_LIMIT". If "audit_set_rate_limit" fails and "audit_set_backlog_limit" succeeds, the "err" value will be greater than or equal to 0. It will miss the failure of rate set.

2008-08-01kernel/audit.c control character detection is off-by-oneVesa-Matti J Kari
Hello, According to my understanding there is an off-by-one bug in the function: audit_string_contains_control() in: kernel/audit.c Patch is included. I do not know from how many places the function is called from, but for example, SELinux Access Vector Cache tries to log untrusted filenames via call path: avc_audit() audit_log_untrustedstring() audit_log_n_untrustedstring() audit_string_contains_control() If audit_string_contains_control() detects control characters, then the string is hex-encoded. But the hex=0x7f dec=127, DEL-character, is not detected. I guess this could have at least some minor security implications, since a user can create a filename with 0x7f in it, causing logged filename to possibly look different when someone reads it on the terminal.

2008-08-01[PATCH] Audit: Collect signal info when SIGUSR2 is sent to auditdEric Paris
Makes the kernel audit subsystem collect information about the sending process when that process sends SIGUSR2 to the userspace audit daemon. SIGUSR2 is a new interesting signal to auditd telling auditd that it should try to start logging to disk again and the error condition which caused it to stop logging to disk (usually out of space) has been rectified.

2008-08-01[PATCH 1/2] proc: fix inode number bogorithmeticAlexey Dobriyan
Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a. Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove() masks out that high bit before doing anything. All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number(). I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK" is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation. So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int, while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
