2008-08-18x86, percpu: silence section mismatch warnings related to EARLY_PER_CPU ↵Marcin Slusarz
variables Quoting Mike Travis in "x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4" (23ca4bba3e20c6c3cb11c1bb0ab4770b724d39ac): The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early map and pointer. It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map elements to "_initvalue". The early_* macros provide access to the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early pointer. This pointer is initialized to point to the early map but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup. After that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable. As these variables are NULL'ed before __init sections are dropped (in setup_per_cpu_maps), they can be safely annotated as __ref. This change silences following section mismatch warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map The variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c8): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_map The variable x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_bios_cpu_apicid_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46d0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_map The variable x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_ptr references the variable __initdata x86_cpu_to_node_map_early_map If the reference is valid then annotate the variable with __init* (see linux/init.h) or name the variable: *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console, Signed-off-by: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@gmail.com> Cc: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-08-18x86: correct register constraints for 64-bit atomic operationsMathieu Desnoyers
x86_64 add/sub atomic ops does not seems to accept integer values bigger than 32 bits as immediates. Intel's add/sub documentation specifies they have to be passed as registers. The only operations in the x86-64 architecture which accept arbitrary 64-bit immediates is "movq" to any register; similarly, the only operation which accept arbitrary 64-bit displacement is "movabs" to or from al/ax/eax/rax. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.0/gcc/Machine-Constraints.html states : e 32-bit signed integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in sign-extending x86-64 instructions). Z 32-bit unsigned integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit that range (for immediate operands in zero-extending x86-64 instructions). Since add/sub does sign extension, using the "e" constraint seems appropriate. It applies to 2.6.27-rc, 2.6.26, 2.6.25...

2008-08-16Fix header export of videodev2.h, ivtv.h, ivtvfb.hDavid Woodhouse
The exported copy of videodev2.h contains this line: #define #include <sys/time.h> This is because for some reason it defines __user for itself -- despite the fact that we remove all instances of __user when exporting headers. _All_ pointers in userspace are user pointers. Fix it by removing the unnecessary '#define __user' from the file. The new headers ivtv.h and ivtvfb.h would have the same problem... if whoever put them there had actually remembered to add them to the Kbuild file while he was at it. Fix those too, and export them as was presumably intended. Note that includes of <linux/compiler.h> are also stripped by the header export process, so those don't need to be conditional.

2008-08-15x86: add MAP_STACK mmap flagIngo Molnar
as per this discussion: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/423 Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model 64-bit P4 CPUs. So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain 64-bit apps like this. glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for it can be implemented.

2008-08-15x86: invalidate caches before going into suspendMark Langsdorf
When a CPU core is shut down, all of its caches need to be flushed to prevent stale data from causing errors if the core is resumed. Current Linux suspend code performs an assignment after the flush, which can add dirty data back to the cache.  On some AMD platforms, additional speculative reads have caused crashes on resume because of this dirty data. Relocate the cache flush to be the very last thing done before halting.  Tie into an assembly line so the compile will not reorder it.  Add some documentation explaining what is going on and why we're doing this.

2008-08-14security: Fix setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable()David Howells
Fix the setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable() as it could corrupt the flags the target process if that is not the current process and it is trying to change its own flags in a different way at the same time. __capable() is using neither atomic ops nor locking to protect t->flags. This patch removes __capable() and introduces has_capability() that doesn't set PF_SUPERPRIV on the process being queried. This patch further splits security_ptrace() in two: (1) security_ptrace_may_access(). This passes judgement on whether one process may access another only (PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH for ptrace() and PTRACE_MODE_READ for /proc), and takes a pointer to the child process. current is the parent. (2) security_ptrace_traceme(). This passes judgement on PTRACE_TRACEME only, and takes only a pointer to the parent process. current is the child. In Smack and commoncap, this uses has_capability() to determine whether the parent will be permitted to use PTRACE_ATTACH if normal checks fail. This does not set PF_SUPERPRIV. Two of the instances of __capable() actually only act on current, and so have been changed to calls to capable(). Of the places that were using __capable(): (1) The OOM killer calls __capable() thrice when weighing the killability of a process. All of these now use has_capability(). (2) cap_ptrace() and smack_ptrace() were using __capable() to check to see whether the parent was allowed to trace any process. As mentioned above, these have been split. For PTRACE_ATTACH and /proc, capable() is now used, and for PTRACE_TRACEME, has_capability() is used. (3) cap_safe_nice() only ever saw current, so now uses capable(). (4) smack_setprocattr() rejected accesses to tasks other than current just after calling __capable(), so the order of these two tests have been switched and capable() is used instead. (5) In smack_file_send_sigiotask(), we need to allow privileged processes to receive SIGIO on files they're manipulating. (6) In smack_task_wait(), we let a process wait for a privileged process, whether or not the process doing the waiting is privileged. I've tested this with the LTP SELinux and syscalls testscripts.

2008-08-13usb: musb: pass configuration specifics via pdataFelipe Balbi
Use platform_data to pass musb configuration-specific details to musb driver. This patch will prevent that other platforms selecting HAVE_CLK and enabling musb won't break tree building. The other parts of it will come when linux-omap merge up more omap2/3 board-files.

2008-08-13usb-serial: don't release unregistered minorsAlan Stern
This patch (as1121) fixes a bug in the USB serial core. When a device is unregistered, the core will give back its minors -- even if the device hasn't been assigned any! The patch reserves the highest minor value (255) to mean that no minor was assigned. It also removes some dead code and does a small style fixup.

2008-08-14CRED: Introduce credential access wrappersDavid Howells
The patches that are intended to introduce copy-on-write credentials for 2.6.28 require abstraction of access to some fields of the task structure, particularly for the case of one task accessing another's credentials where RCU will have to be observed. Introduced here are trivial no-op versions of the desired accessors for current and other tasks so that other subsystems can start to be converted over more easily. Wrappers are introduced into a new header (linux/cred.h) for UID/GID, EUID/EGID, SUID/SGID, FSUID/FSGID, cap_effective and current's subscribed user_struct. These wrappers are macros because the ordering between header files mitigates against making them inline functions. linux/cred.h is #included from linux/sched.h. Further, XFS is modified such that it no longer defines and uses parameterised versions of current_fs[ug]id(), thus getting rid of the namespace collision otherwise incurred.
