Device node major/minor numbers are just stored in the payload of a single
data node. Just extend that to 4 bytes and use new_encode_dev() for it.

We only use the 4-byte format if we _need_ to, if !old_valid_dev(foo).
This preserves backwards compatibility with older code as much as
possible. If we do make devices with major or minor numbers above 255, and
then mount the file system with the old code, it'll just read the first
two bytes and get the numbers wrong. If it comes to garbage-collect it,
it'll then write back those wrong numbers. But that's about the best we
can expect.

We have to pack at least the jint16_t structure, because otherwise it'll

can_share_swap_page() is used to check if the page has the last reference.
This avoids allocating a new page for COW if it's the last page.

However, if CONFIG_SWAP is not set, can_share_swap_page() is defined as 0,
thus always causes a copy for the last COW page.  The below simple patch
fixes it.

Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules
Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000)
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe

The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel.

symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call
two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try
to acquire the same lock.  This deadlocks the kernel of course.

This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it
doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly.  Also, it
now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address().  The latter has
an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that
since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address
uses) ourselves.

If we use __attribute__((packed)), GCC will _also_ assume that the
structures aren't sensibly aligned, and it'll emit code to cope with
that instead of straight word load/save. This can be _very_ suboptimal
on architectures like ARM.

Ideally, we want an attribute which just tells GCC not to do any
padding, without the alignment side-effects. In the absense of that,
we'll just drop the 'packed' attribute and hope that everything stays as
it was (which to be fair is fairly much what we expect). And add some
paranoia checks in the initialisation code, which should be optimised
away completely in the normal case.

This attached patches provide xattr support including POSIX-ACL and
SELinux support on JFFS2 (version.5).

There are some significant differences from previous version posted
at last December.
The biggest change is addition of EBS(Erase Block Summary) support.
Currently, both kernel and usermode utility (sumtool) can recognize
xattr nodes which have JFFS2_NODETYPE_XATTR/_XREF nodetype.

In addition, some bugs are fixed.
- A potential race condition was fixed.
- Unexpected fail when updating a xattr by same name/value pair was fixed.
- A bug when removing xattr name/value pair was fixed.

The fundamental structures (such as using two new nodetypes and exclusion
mechanism by rwsem) are unchanged. But most of implementation were reviewed
and updated if necessary.
Espacially, we had to change several internal implementations related to
load_xattr_datum() to avoid a potential race condition.

After dwmw2 let me know it ought to be done, I rewrote the physmap map
driver to be a platform driver.  I know zilch about the driver model,
so I probably botched it in some way, but I've done some tests on an
ixp23xx board which uses physmap, and it all seems to work.

In order to not break existing physmap users, I've added some compat
code that will instantiate a platform device iff CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN
is defined and != 0.  Also, I've changed the default value for
CONFIG_MTD_PHYSMAP_LEN to zero, so that people who inadvertently
compile in physmap (or new, platform-style, users of physmap) don't get
burned.

This works pretty well -- the new physmap driver is a drop-in replacement
for the old one, and works on said ixp23xx board without any code changes
needed.  (This should hold as long as users don't touch 'physmap_map'
directly.)

Once all physmap users have been converted to instantiate their own
platform devices, the compat code can go.  (Or we decide that we can
change all the in-tree users at the same time, and never merge the
compat code.)

When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size
of the entire entry as:

sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target))

ipt_standard_target looks like this:

  struct xt_standard_target
  {
        struct xt_entry_target target;
        int verdict;
  };

xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the
structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit
architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4
byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large.

The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by

  sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target),

which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace
was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by
accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other
architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to
the size and following offsets.

The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now,
since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice
rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste
of time doing it.

Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the
page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we
can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c

Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me.

- Only allow full pages to go to the page cache.
- Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN.
- Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails.

And as a cleanup on that:

- Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make
  the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have
  to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end.

1) The audit_ipc_perms() function has been split into two different
functions:
        - audit_ipc_obj()
        - audit_ipc_set_perm()

There's a key shift here...  The audit_ipc_obj() collects the uid, gid,
mode, and SElinux context label of the current ipc object.  This
audit_ipc_obj() hook is now found in several places.  Most notably, it
is hooked in ipcperms(), which is called in various places around the
ipc code permforming a MAC check.  Additionally there are several places
where *checkid() is used to validate that an operation is being
performed on a valid object while not necessarily having a nearby
ipcperms() call.  In these locations, audit_ipc_obj() is called to
ensure that the information is captured by the audit system.

The audit_set_new_perm() function is called any time the permissions on
the ipc object changes.  In this case, the NEW permissions are recorded
(and note that an audit_ipc_obj() call exists just a few lines before
each instance).

2) Support for an AUDIT_IPC_SET_PERM audit message type.  This allows
for separate auxiliary audit records for normal operations on an IPC
object and permissions changes.  Note that the same struct
audit_aux_data_ipcctl is used and populated, however there are separate
audit_log_format statements based on the type of the message.  Finally,
the AUDIT_IPC block of code in audit_free_aux() was extended to handle
aux messages of this new type.  No more mem leaks I hope ;-)
