2013-02-04arch Kconfig: Remove references to IRQ_PER_CPUJames Hogan
The IRQ_PER_CPU Kconfig symbol was removed in the following commit: Commit 6a58fb3bad099076f36f0f30f44507bc3275cdb6 ("genirq: Remove CONFIG_IRQ_PER_CPU") merged in v2.6.39-rc1. But IRQ_PER_CPU wasn't removed from any of the architecture Kconfig files where it was defined or selected. It's completely unused so remove the remaining references.

2013-01-19tty: Added a CONFIG_TTY option to allow removal of TTYJoe Millenbach
The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway. bloat-o-meter output is below. The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than "depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies. bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by removing TTY.

2013-01-17sk-filter: Add ability to lock a socket filter programVincent Bernat
While a privileged program can open a raw socket, attach some restrictive filter and drop its privileges (or send the socket to an unprivileged program through some Unix socket), the filter can still be removed or modified by the unprivileged program. This commit adds a socket option to lock the filter (SO_LOCK_FILTER) preventing any modification of a socket filter program. This is similar to OpenBSD BIOCLOCK ioctl on bpf sockets, except even root is not allowed change/drop the filter. The state of the lock can be read with getsockopt(). No error is triggered if the state is not changed. -EPERM is returned when a user tries to remove the lock or to change/remove the filter while the lock is active. The check is done directly in sk_attach_filter() and sk_detach_filter() and does not affect only setsockopt() syscall. Signed-off-by: Vincent Bernat <bernat@luffy.cx> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-16TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_pushJiri Slaby
Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed: tty_flip_buffer_push. IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get at all yet. Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it anyway.

2013-01-07parisc: improve ptrace support for gdb single-stepJohn David Anglin
Various GCC tests use gdb to simulate a multithreaded application. Many of these tests have been failing on parisc linux. GCC does this by using gdb to single-step the application, then gdb is used to call other test specific code. Where this fails is when the application is stepped into the delay slot of a taken branch. This sets the PSW B bit. When the test specific code is executed, this usually clears the PSW B bit. Currently, gdb is not allowed to set the B bit. So, the code falls through what should be a taken branch. The attached patch adds the PSW B bit to the set of bits that gdb is allowed to set. In order to set the B bit, the trace system call must return using an interrupt restore. The patch also modifies this code to use the saved IAOQ values when they are saved by a ptrace syscall or interruption.

2013-01-07parisc: avoid undefined shift in cnv_float.hJohn David Anglin
The attached change fixes a float conversion problem found running the GCC testsuite with GCC configured with --with-arch=2.0. The actual problem occurs for an exponent value of 63. This is the maximum exponent value that can be passed. This causes a left shift by 32 in the else hunk of the macro. This causes undefined behavior and the wrong value is returned for dresultB. The fix is the check "exponent <= 62". If the exponent is 63, dresultB is set to 0. The patch also optimizes the operation a bit by copying "Sall(sgl_value) << SGL_EXP_LENGTH" to val, so that sgl_value is not modified.

2013-01-03ARCH: drivers remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
This fixes up all of the smaller arches that had __dev* markings for their platform-specific drivers. CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

In commit d0a21265dfb5fa8a David Rientjes unified various archs' module_alloc implementation (including x86) and removed the graduitous shortcut for size == 0. Then, in commit de7d2b567d040e3b, Joe Perches added a warning for zero-length vmallocs, which can happen without kallsyms on modules with no init sections (eg. zlib_deflate). Fix this once and for all; the module code has to handle zero length anyway, so get it right at the caller and remove the now-gratuitous checks within the arch-specific module_alloc implementations.

This new method is now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the 'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots. * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings really pointed to real bugs. * Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the report and annotate browsers.

2012-12-12mm: support more pagesizes for MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLBAndi Kleen
There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on others. This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings. This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow specifying the page size. It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the change fully compatible. Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward. Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is specified it uses the mount of the default page size. The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used. I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile, powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb sizes, so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

In commit 9d73fc2d641f ("open*(2) compat fixes (s390, arm64)") I said: > > The usual rules for open()/openat()/open_by_handle_at() are > 1) native 32bit - don't force O_LARGEFILE in flags > 2) native 64bit - force O_LARGEFILE in flags > 3) compat on 64bit host - as for native 32bit > 4) native 32bit ABI for 64bit system (mips/n32, x86/x32) - as for native 64bit > > There are only two exceptions - s390 compat has open() forcing O_LARGEFILE and > arm64 compat has open_by_handle_at() doing the same thing. The same binaries > on native host (s390/31 and arm resp.) will *not* force O_LARGEFILE, so IMO > both are emulation bugs. Three exceptions, actually - parisc open() is another case like that. Native 32bit won't force O_LARGEFILE, the same binary on parisc64 will. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
