      coredump: add VM_NODUMP, MADV_NODUMP, MADV_CLEAR_NODUMP · accb61fe
      Jason Baron 提交于
      Since we no longer need the VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag, let's use the freed bit
      for 'VM_NODUMP' flag.  The idea is is to add a new madvise() flag:
      MADV_DONTDUMP, which can be set by applications to specifically request
      memory regions which should not dump core.
      
      The specific application I have in mind is qemu: we can add a flag there
      that wouldn't dump all of guest memory when qemu dumps core.  This flag
      might also be useful for security sensitive apps that want to absolutely
      make sure that parts of memory are not dumped.  To clear the flag use:
      MADV_DODUMP.

      This patch makes IRQ_DOMAIN usable on MIPS.  It uses an ugly workaround

      static keys: Introduce 'struct static_key', static_key_true()/false() and static_key_slow_[inc|dec]()
      
      So here's a boot tested patch on top of Jason's series that does
      all the cleanups I talked about and turns jump labels into a
      more intuitive to use facility. It should also address the
      various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels.
      
      Typical usage scenarios:
      
              #include <linux/static_key.h>
      
              struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE;
      
              if (static_key_false(&key))
                      do unlikely code
              else
                      do likely code
      
      Or:
      
              if (static_key_true(&key))
                      do likely code
              else
                      do unlikely code
      
      The static key is modified via:
      
              static_key_slow_inc(&key);
              ...
              static_key_slow_dec(&key);
      
      The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an
      expensive operation.
      
      I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note
      that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename
      blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label
      patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to
      decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit.
      
      On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to
      likely()/unlikely() branches.

      mips/PCI: get rid of device resource fixups · 96a6b9ad
      Bjorn Helgaas 提交于
      Tell the PCI core about host bridge address translation so it can take
      care of bus-to-resource conversion for us.
      
      Here's the wrinkle on Cobalt: we can't generate normal I/O port addresses
      on PCI because the GT-64111 doesn't do any address translation, so we have
      this:
      
        CPU I/O port addresses		[io 0x0000-0xffffff]
        PCI bus I/O port addresses	[io 0x10000000-0x10ffffff]
      
      Legacy-mode IDE controllers start out with the legacy bus addresses, e.g.,
      0x1f0, assigned by pci_setup_device().  These are outside the range of
      addresses GT-64111 can generate on PCI, but pcibios_fixup_device_resources()
      converted them to CPU addresses anyway by adding io_offset.  Therefore, we
      had to pre-adjust them in cobalt_legacy_ide_fixup().
      
      With io_offset = 0xf0000000, we had this:
      
        res->start = 0x1f0	initialized in pci_setup_device()
        res->start = 0x100001f0	-= io_offset in cobalt_legacy_ide_fixup()
        res->start = 0x1f0	+= io_offset in pcibios_fixup_device_resources()
      
      The difference after this patch is that the generic pci_bus_to_resource()
      only adds the offset if the bus address is inside a host bridge window.
      Since 0x1f0 is not a valid bus address and is not inside any windows, it is
      unaffected, so we now have this:
      
        region->start = 0x1f0	initialized in pci_setup_device()
        res->start = 0x1f0	no offset by pci_bus_to_resource()
      
      That means we can remove both pcibios_fixup_device_resources() and
      cobalt_legacy_ide_fixup().
      
      I would *rather* set the host bridge offset to zero (which corresponds
      to what the GT-64111 actually does), and have both CPU and PCI addresses
      of [io 0x10000000-0x10ffffff].  However, that would require changes to
      generic code that assumes legacy I/O addresses, such as pic1_io_resource
      ([io 0x0020-0x00021]), and we'd have to keep a Cobalt IDE fixup.
      
      Of course, none of this changes the fact that references to I/O port
      0x1f0 actually go to port 0x100001f0, not 0x1f0, on the Cobalt PCI bus.
      Fortunately the VT82C586 IDE controller only decodes the low 24 address
      bits, so it does work.

      mips/PCI: replace pci_probe_only with pci_flags · 29090606
      Bjorn Helgaas 提交于
      Some architectures (alpha, mips, powerpc) have an arch-specific
      "pci_probe_only" flag.  Others use PCI_PROBE_ONLY in pci_flags for
      the same purpose.  This moves mips to the pci_flags approach so
      generic code can use the same test across all architectures.

      sock: Introduce the SO_PEEK_OFF sock option · ef64a54f
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      This one specifies where to start MSG_PEEK-ing queue data from. When
      set to negative value means that MSG_PEEK works as ususally -- peeks
      from the head of the queue always.
      
      When some bytes are peeked from queue and the peeking offset is non
      negative it is moved forward so that the next peek will return next
      portion of data.
      
      When non-peeking recvmsg occurs and the peeking offset is non negative
      is is moved backward so that the next peek will still peek the proper
      data (i.e. the one that would have been picked if there were no non
      peeking recv in between).
      
      The offset is set using per-proto opteration to let the protocol handle
      the locking issues and to check whether the peeking offset feature is
      supported by the protocol the socket belongs to.

      Audit: push audit success and retcode into arch ptrace.h · d7e7528b
      Eric Paris 提交于
      The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
      supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
      Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
      by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
      success or failure.  This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
      pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall.  The fix is to fix the
      layering foolishness.  We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
      in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
      determine if the syscall was a success or failure.  We also define a generic
      is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
      value is < -MAX_ERRNO.  This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
      separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.
      
      We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
      instead of macros.  The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
      for the regs.  (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
      pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs).  Since the audit
      function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
      arch correct structure to dereference it.
      
      The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
      change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
      THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
      makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.
      
      In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
      audit code as the return value.  But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
      regs_return_value() as regs[3].  I have no idea which one is correct, but this
      patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].
      
      For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
      regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3].  regs->gprs[3] is
      always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
      before calling the audit code when appropriate.
