      [PATCH] m68k pt_regs fixes · 2850bc27
      Al Viro 提交于
      m68k_handle_int() split in two functions: __m68k_handle_int() takes
      pt_regs * and does set_irq_regs(); m68k_handle_int() doesn't get pt_regs
      *.
      
      Places where we used to call m68k_handle_int() recursively with the same
      pt_regs have simply lost the second argument, the rest is switched to
      __m68k_handle_int().
      
      The rest of patch is just dropping pt_regs * where needed.

      [PATCH] provide kernel_execve on all architectures · fe74290d
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This adds the new kernel_execve function on all architectures that were using
      _syscall3() to implement execve.
      
      The implementation uses code from the _syscall3 macros provided in the
      unistd.h header file.  I don't have cross-compilers for any of these
      architectures, so the patch is untested with the exception of i386.
      
      Most architectures can probably implement this in a nicer way in assembly or
      by combining it with the sys_execve implementation itself, but this should do
      it for now.

      [PATCH] kill wall_jiffies · 8ef38609
      Atsushi Nemoto 提交于
      With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies.
      So we can kill wall_jiffies completely.
      
      This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior
      except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a
      condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1".  This condition is never met so I
      suppose it is just a bug.  I just remove that condition only instead of
      kill the whole "if" block.

      [PATCH] simplify update_times (avoid jiffies/jiffies_64 aliasing problem) · 3171a030
      Atsushi Nemoto 提交于
      Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
      timer interrupt handler with this change.
      
      Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
      callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update.  Passing ticks
      get rid of this redundant calculation.  Also there are another redundancy
      pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.
      
      This cleanup make a barrier added by
      5aee405c needless.  So this patch removes
      it.
      
      As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
      wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies.  (This patch does not really
      remove wall_jiffies.  It would be another cleanup patch)

      [PATCH] pidspace: is_init() · f400e198
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于
      This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
      (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
      replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().
      
      Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
      patches for now.
      
      Eric's original description:
      
      	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
      	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
      	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
      	->pid == 1.
      
      	Introduce is_init to capture this case.
      
      	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
      	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
      	process that has pid == 1.

      [PATCH] make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ · df67b3da
      Jason Baron 提交于
      Make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ for a number of architectures which don't
      support write only in hardware.
      
      While looking at this, I noticed that some architectures which do not
      support write only mappings already take the exact same approach.  For
      example, in arch/alpha/mm/fault.c:
      
      "
              if (cause < 0) {
                      if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_EXEC))
                              goto bad_area;
              } else if (!cause) {
                      /* Allow reads even for write-only mappings */
                      if (!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_WRITE)))
                              goto bad_area;
              } else {
                      if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
                              goto bad_area;
              }
      "
      
      Thus, this patch brings other architectures which do not support write only
      mappings in-line and consistent with the rest.  I've verified the patch on
      ia64, x86_64 and x86.
      
      Additional discussion:
      
      Several architectures, including x86, can not support write-only mappings.
      The pte for x86 reserves a single bit for protection and its two states are
      read only or read/write.  Thus, write only is not supported in h/w.
      
      Currently, if i 'mmap' a page write-only, the first read attempt on that page
      creates a page fault and will SEGV.  That check is enforced in
      arch/blah/mm/fault.c.  However, if i first write that page it will fault in
      and the pte will be set to read/write.  Thus, any subsequent reads to the page
      will succeed.  It is this inconsistency in behavior that this patch is
      attempting to address.  Furthermore, if the page is swapped out, and then
      brought back the first read will also cause a SEGV.  Thus, any arbitrary read
      on a page can potentially result in a SEGV.
      
      According to the SuSv3 spec, "if the application requests only PROT_WRITE, the
      implementation may also allow read access." Also as mentioned, some
      archtectures, such as alpha, shown above already take the approach that i am
      suggesting.
      
      The counter-argument to this raised by Arjan, is that the kernel is enforcing
      the write only mapping the best it can given the h/w limitations.  This is
      true, however Alan Cox, and myself would argue that the inconsitency in
      behavior, that is applications can sometimes work/sometimes fails is highly
      undesireable.  If you read through the thread, i think people, came to an
      agreement on the last patch i posted, as nobody has objected to it...
