16 years agosaner FASYNC handling on file close

saner FASYNC handling on file close

As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

file caps: always start with clear bprm->caps_*

While Linux doesn't honor setuid on scripts.  However, it mistakenly
behaves differently for file capabilities.

This patch fixes that behavior by making sure that get_file_caps()
begins with empty bprm->caps_*.  That way when a script is loaded,
its bprm->caps_* may be filled when binfmt_misc calls prepare_binprm(),
but they will be cleared again when binfmt_elf calls prepare_binprm()
next to read the interpreter's file capabilities.

sata_via: fix support for 5287

5287 used to be treated as vt6420 but it didn't work.  It's new family
of controllers called vt8251 which hosts four SATA ports as M/S of the
two ATA ports.  This configuration is rather peculiar in that although
the M/S devices are on the same port, each have its own SCR (or
equivalent link status/control) registers which screws up the
port-link-device hierarchy assumed by libata.  Another controller
which falls into this category is ata_piix w/ SIDPR access.

libata now has facility to deal with this class of controllers named
slave_link.  A low level driver for such controllers can just call
ata_slave_link_init() on the respective ports and libata will handle
all the difficult parts like following up with single SRST after
hardresetting both ports.

This patch creates new controller class vt8251, implements slave_link
aware init sequence and config space based SCR access for it and moves
5287 to the new class.

This patch is based on Joseph Chan's larger patch which was created
before slave_link was implemented in libata.

In ata_tf_to_lba48(), when evaluating

(tf->hob_lbal & 0xff) << 24

the expression is promoted to signed int (since int can hold all values
of u8).  However, if hob_lbal is 128 or more, then it is treated as a
negative signed value and sign-extended when promoted to u64 to | into
sectors, which leads to the MSB 32 bits of section getting set
incorrectly.

For example, Phillip O'Donnell <phillip.odonnell@gmail.com> reported

    ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488

powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_page

After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page().  This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used.  So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.

First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page().  Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single.  We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.

This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().

This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

powerpc/ppc64/kdump: Better flag for running relocatable

The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development.

As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints:  Offset 0 is
the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing
to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus
(entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is
used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved
when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0.

Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because:

- It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data.
- It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag
- It had no way of identifying that the flag was present
- It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code
  before branching, which hurts debug.
- It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes)

Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of
the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without
relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load.

Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at
0x60.  Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is
set to 1.  It only exists if we are relocatable.

tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel.  This part is wrong
and is reverted by this commit.

The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space.
Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated
entry point (after turning "off" the mmu).

The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs
before the user supplied code.   Its job is to establish the entry
environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents
of memory.  The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool,
where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols.

Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a
kernel crash, it should just patch purgatory (or the kernel directly)
if something needs to happen.

ftrace: handle archs that do not support irqs_disabled_flags

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures

Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.

Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.

This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.

Fix mmap to /dev/mem when CONFIG_X86_PAT is off and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is

mmap to /dev/mem on kernel memory has been failing since the

the check to avoid cache aliasing with PAT is kicking in even

This patch makes sure that the mmap to regular

PAT is disabled, and the checks to avoid cache aliasing
still happens if PAT is enabled.

nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash

Junjiro R.  Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are
using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit.  In this
situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a

We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught
other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did
need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago).

Eric Sandeen [Wed, 29 Oct 2008 21:01:08 +0000 (14:01 -0700)] 
ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrs

When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying
it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of
crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it
needs.  This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data,
so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero.

So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory.
(Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly).

The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current
code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the
(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to
ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set).  To be explicit about this, we now send
in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there.

Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the
virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not
kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee)
