2005-07-22Remove "noreplacement" kernel command line option.Linus Torvalds
It is no longer valid to not replace instructions, since we depend on different behaviour depending on CPU capabilities. If you need to limit the capabilities of the replacements (because the boot CPU has features that non-boot CPU's do not have, for example), you need to explicitly disable those capabilities that are not shared across all CPU's. For example, if your boot CPU has FXSR, but other CPU's in your system do not, you need to use the "nofxsr" kernel command line, not disable instruction replacement per se.
2005-07-22x86: make restore_fpu() use alternative assembler instructionsLinus Torvalds
It's really just a single instruction, conditional on whether the CPU supports FXSR or not, so implement it as such instead of making it a function that queries FXSR dynamically. This means that the instruction just gets automatically rewritten to the correct one at boot-time.
2005-07-22Fix up incorrect "unlikely()" on %gs reload in x86 __switch_toLinus Torvalds
These days %gs is normally the TLS segment, so it's no longer zero. As a result, we shouldn't just assume that %fs/%gs tend to be zero together, but test them independently instead. Also, fix setting of debug registers to use the "next" pointer instead of "current". It so happens that the scheduler will have set the new current pointer before calling __switch_to(), but that's just an implementation detail.

A malicious 32bit app can have an elf section at 0xffffe000. During exec of this app, we will have a memory leak as insert_vm_struct() is not checking for return value in syscall32_setup_pages() and thus not freeing the vma allocated for the vsyscall page.

2005-07-14[PATCH] uml: allow building as 32-bit binary on 64bit hostPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
This patch makes the command: make ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386 work on x86_64 hosts (with support for building 32-bit binaries). This is especially needed since 64-bit UMLs don't support 32-bit emulation for guest binaries, currently. This has been tested in all possible cases and works. Only exception is that I've built but not tested a 64-bit binary, because I hadn't a 64-bit filesystem available.

1) Cleanup an ugly hyper-nested code in Makefile (now only the arith. expression is passed through the host bash). 2) Fix a problem with GCC 2.95: according to a report from Raphael Bossek, .remap_data : { arch/um/sys-SUBARCH/unmap_fin.o (.data .bss) } is expanded into: .remap_data : { arch/um/sys-i386 /unmap_fin.o (.data .bss) } (because I didn't use ## to join the two tokens), thus stopping linking. Pass the whole path from the Makefile as a simple and nice fix.

2005-07-14[PATCH] uml: workaround host bug in "TT mode vs. NPTL link fix"Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
A big bug has been diagnosed on hosts running the SKAS patch and built with CONFIG_REGPARM, due to some missing prevent_tail_call(). On these hosts, this workaround is needed to avoid triggering that bug, because "to" is kept by GCC only in EBX, which is corrupted at the return of mmap2(). Since to trigger this bug int 0x80 must be used when doing the call, it rarely manifests itself, so I'd prefer to get this merged to workaround that host bug, since it should cause no functional change. Still, you might prefer to drop it, I'll leave this to you.

As he noted, the code is largely suboptimal however it currently works, and will be fixed shortly. Just read the access_ok check on fp which is NULL, or the pointer arithmetic below which should be done with a cast to void*: frame = (struct rt_sigframe __user *) round_down(stack_top - sizeof(struct rt_sigframe), 16) - 8; The code shows clearly that has been taken from arch/x86_64/kernel/signal.c:setup_rt_frame(), maybe in a bit of a hurry.

2005-07-13[PATCH] s390: fadvise hint values.Martin Schwidefsky
Add special case for the POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint values for s390-64. The user space values in the s390-64 glibc headers for these two defines have always been 6 and 7 instead of 4 and 5. All 64 bit applications therefore use the "wrong" values. To get these applications working without recompiling the kernel needs to accept the "wrong" values. Since the values for s390-31 are 4 and 5 the compat wrapper for fadvise64 and fadvise64_64 need to rewrite the values for 31 bit system calls.

2005-07-12[PATCH] inotifyRobert Love
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly its inability to scale and its terrible user interface: * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount. * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of stat structures. * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals? inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change notification: * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO. You get a single fd, which is select()-able. * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item you were watching is on was unmounted." * inotify can watch directories or files. Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure), Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects. See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

2005-07-12[IA64] Altix pcibus_to_node implementationChristoph Lameter
The Altix subarch does not provide node information via ACPI. Instead hooks are used to fixup pci structures. This patch determines the nodes for Altix PCI busses. Remote Bridges: --------------- Altix supports remote I/O nodes without memory or processors but with bridges. The TIOCA type of bridge is an AGP bridge and the PROM provides information about the closest node. That information will be returned by pcibus_to_node. The TIOCP remote bridge type is a PCI bridge but the PROM does not provide a closest node id. pcibus_to_node will return -1 for devices on those bridges meaning that device control structures may be allocated on any node. Safeguard: ---------- Should the fixups result in invalid node information for a pci controller then a warning will be printed and pcibus_to_node will return -1. This patch also fixes the "FIXME" in sn_dma_alloc_coherent. This means that dma_alloc_coherent will now use alloc_pages_node to allocate memory local to the node that the PCI device is connected to.
