      cross-arch: don't corrupt personality flags upon exec() · 16f3e95b
      Jiri Kosina 提交于
      Historically, the top three bytes of personality have been used for
      things such as ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE, which made sense only for specific
      architectures.
      
      We now however have a flag there that is general no matter the
      architecture (UNAME26); generally we have to be careful to preserve the
      personality flags across exec().
      
      This patch tries to fix all architectures that forcefully overwrite
      personality flags during exec() (ppc32 and s390 have been fixed recently
      by commits f9783ec8 ("[S390] Do not clobber personality flags on
      exec") and 59e4c3a2 ("powerpc/32: Don't clobber personality flags on
      exec") in a similar way already).

      Make most arch asm/module.h files use asm-generic/module.h · 786d35d4
      David Howells 提交于
      Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
      ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
      into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
      
      Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
      
      To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
      
       (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
      
           Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
           mod_arch_specific struct.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
       (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
      
           Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records.  This causes
           the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
           defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
      
      Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
      two arches that do this.
      
      With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
      with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
      
      Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
      unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

      Remove useless wrappers of asm-generic/cpumask.h · da870585
      Paul Bolle 提交于
      frv and xtensa both have a header (in their include/asm directories)
      that are thin wrappers around asm-generic/cpumask.h. These wrappers are
      useless, since that header doesn't exist. They are also unused (all
      files including asm/cpumask.h are x86 specific).
      
      hexagon and openrisc generate similar headers at build time (using a
      generic-y entry in include/asm/Kbuild). These generated headers are
      useless and unused too.
      
      Remove these headers and generic-y entries.

      frv: delete incorrect task prototypes causing compile fail · 93c2d656
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Commit 41101809 ("fork: Provide weak arch_release_[task_struct|
      thread_info] functions") in -tip highlights a problem in the frv arch,
      where it has needles prototypes for alloc_task_struct_node and
      free_task_struct.  This now shows up as:
      
        kernel/fork.c:120:66: error: static declaration of 'alloc_task_struct_node' follows non-static declaration
        kernel/fork.c:127:51: error: static declaration of 'free_task_struct' follows non-static declaration
      
      since that commit turned them into real functions.  Since arch/frv does
      does not define define __HAVE_ARCH_TASK_STRUCT_ALLOCATOR (i.e.  it just
      uses the generic ones) it shouldn't list these at all.

      MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support. · bb8187d3
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
      that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
      of memory.  A quick search on the internet, and you see that
      even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
      in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
      the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
      
      This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
      kernel code and from the x86 architecture.  There is no point in
      carrying this any further into the future.
      
      One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
      stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
      the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

      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.

      perf, arch: Rework perf_event_index() · 35edc2a5

      Put the logic to compute the event index into a per pmu method. This
      is required because the x86 rules are weird and wonderful and don't
      match the capabilities of the current scheme.
      
      AFAIK only powerpc actually has a usable userspace read of the PMCs
      but I'm not at all sure anybody actually used that.
      
      ARM is restored to the default since it currently does not support
      userspace access at all. And all software events are provided with a
      method that reports their index as 0 (disabled).

      net: add wireless TX status socket option · 6e3e939f
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires
      knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer.
      Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even
      transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but
      injecting it with radiotap and getting the status
      out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather
      complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and
      doesn't work with all hardware.
      
      To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX
      status option for data frame transmissions.
      
      This works similar to the existing TX timestamping
      in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's
      error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has
      an int indicating ACK status (0/1).
      
      Since it is possible that at some point we will
      want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a
      single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not
      doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING
      to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more
      than just the timestamp; keep the old constant
      as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs
      don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard
      to split them up in a way that makes it possible.
      
      Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out
      the functions that add the control messages.
