In order for a binary which has the iWMMXt coprocessor enabled to run a binary which needs the FPA emulation, we need to explicitly clear TIF_USING_IWMMXT if we are not going to set it.

2005-09-29[PATCH] fix TASK_STOPPED vs TASK_NONINTERACTIVE interactionOleg Nesterov
do_signal_stop: for_each_thread(t) { if (t->state < TASK_STOPPED) ++sig->group_stop_count; } However, TASK_NONINTERACTIVE > TASK_STOPPED, so this loop will not count TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE threads. See also wait_task_stopped(), which checks ->state > TASK_STOPPED. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> [ We really probably should always use the appropriate bitmasks to test task states, not do it like this. Using something like #define TASK_RUNNABLE (TASK_RUNNING | TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | \ TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_NONINTERACTIVE) and then doing "if (task->state & TASK_RUNNABLE)" or similar. But the ordering of the task states is historical, and keeping the ordering does make sense regardless. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-28[PATCH] Keys: Add possessor permissions to keys [try #3]David Howells
The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key targets using the LSM facilities. This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *) that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer. The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as it's not an intrinsic property of a key. Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever possession information needs to be passed through. This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on return from kmem_cache_alloc(). The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all reference variables should now end in "_ref".

2005-09-28[PATCH] mm: move_pte to remap ZERO_PAGENick Piggin
Move the ZERO_PAGE remapping complexity to the move_pte macro in asm-generic, have it conditionally depend on __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, which gets defined for MIPS. For architectures without __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, move_pte becomes a noop. From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Fix nasty little bug we've missed in Nick's mremap move ZERO_PAGE patch. The "pte" at that point may be a swap entry or a pte_file entry: we must check pte_present before perhaps corrupting such an entry. Patch below against 2.6.14-rc2-mm1, but the same bug is in 2.6.14-rc2's mm/mremap.c, and more dangerous there since it's affecting all arches: I think the safest course is to send Nick's patch and Yoichi's build fix and this fix (build tested) on to Linus - so only MIPS can be affected.

2005-09-26[NETFILTER]: Fix invalid module autoloading by splitting iptable_natHarald Welte
When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko. This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate the nat code, even if you don't want it. This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko). Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend. ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate some resources, but not affect runtime performance. This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters (nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

2005-09-26[IB] uverbs: Close some exploitable racesRoland Dreier
Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time. This patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a module reference leak. Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

Echo Audio cardbus products are known to be incompatible with EnE bridges. in order to maybe solve the problem a EnE specific test bit has to be set, another cleared...but other setups have a good chance to break when just forcing the bits. so do the whole thingy automatically.

2005-09-26[SPARC64]: Probe D/I/E-cache config and use.David S. Miller
At boot time, determine the D-cache, I-cache and E-cache size and line-size. Use them in cache flushes when appropriate. This change was motivated by discovering that the D-cache on UltraSparc-IIIi and later are 64K not 32K, and the flushes done by the Cheetah error handlers were assuming a 32K size. There are still some pieces of code that are hard coding things and will need to be fixed up at some point. While we're here, fix the D-cache and I-cache parity error handlers to run with interrupts disabled, and when the trap occurs at trap level > 1 log the event via a counter displayed in /proc/cpuinfo.

2005-09-25[SPARC64]: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support.David S. Miller
The trick is that we do the kernel linear mapping TLB miss starting with an instruction sequence like this: ba,pt %xcc, kvmap_load xor %g2, %g4, %g5 succeeded by an instruction sequence which performs a full page table walk starting at swapper_pg_dir. We first take over the trap table from the firmware. Then, using this constant PTE generation for the linear mapping area above, we build the kernel page tables for the linear mapping. After this is setup, we patch that branch above into a "nop", which will cause TLB misses to fall through to the full page table walk. With this, the page unmapping for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is trivial. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-09-22[NETFILTER] Fix conntrack event cache deadlock/oopsHarald Welte
This patch fixes a number of bugs. It cannot be reasonably split up in multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same function: Bug #1: The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held. Therefore, the call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be moved outside of the locked section. This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX oops and deadlock reports. Bug #2: We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without holding a lock. Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race with another CPU. Bug #3: ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh (and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be performed. Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb parameter bein non-null. We now re-introduce a non-accounting "ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

2005-09-22[PATCH] ppc64: SMU driver update & i2c supportBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The SMU is the "system controller" chip used by Apple recent G5 machines including the iMac G5. It drives things like fans, i2c busses, real time clock, etc... The current kernel contains a very crude driver that doesn't do much more than reading the real time clock synchronously. This is a completely rewritten driver that provides interrupt based command queuing, a userland interface, and an i2c/smbus driver for accessing the devices hanging off the SMU i2c busses like temperature sensors. This driver is a basic block for upcoming work on thermal control for those machines, among others.
