      parisc: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask() · ade7728b
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
      retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
      incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
      pending in the shared queue.
      
      Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0
      ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
      which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
      successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code
      across architectures.  In the past some architectures got this code wrong,
      so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

      Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "This is the v3.5 RCU tree from Paul E.  McKenney:
      
       1) A set of improvements and fixes to the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ feature (with
          more on the way for 3.6).  Posted to LKML:
             https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/324 (commits 1-3 and 5),
             https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/611 (commit 4),
             https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/30/390 (commit 6), and
             https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/4/410 (commit 7, combined with
             the other commits for the convenience of the tester).
      
       2) Changes to make rcu_barrier() avoid disrupting execution of CPUs
          that have no RCU callbacks.  Posted to LKML:
             https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322.
      
       3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction
          between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all that
          survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's
          __rcu_read_lock() to be inlined.  The full set was posted to LKML at
          https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/14/143, and the first and third patches
          of that set remain.
      
       4) Lai Jiangshan's algorithmic implementation of SRCU, which includes
          call_srcu() and srcu_barrier().  A major feature of this new
          implementation is that synchronize_srcu() no longer disturbs the
          execution of other CPUs.  This work is based on earlier
          implementations by Peter Zijlstra and Paul E.  McKenney.  Posted to
          LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/22/82.
      
       5) A number of miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements which were
          posted to LKML at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/353 with
          subsequent updates posted to LKML."

      Revert "vfs: remove unnecessary d_unhashed() check from __d_lookup_rcu" · 2e321806
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 8c01a529.
      
      It turns out the d_unhashed() check isn't unnecessary after all: while
      it's true that unhashing will increment the sequence numbers, that does
      not necessarily invalidate the RCU lookup, because it might have seen
      the dentry pointer (before it got unhashed), but by the time it loaded
      the sequence number, it could have seen the *new* sequence number (after
      it got unhashed).
      
      End result: we might look up an unhashed dentry that is about to be
      freed, with the sequence number never indicating anything bad about it.
      So checking that the dentry is still hashed (*after* reading the sequence
      number) is indeed the proper fix, and was never unnecessary.

      Pull scsi-target changes from Nicholas Bellinger:
       "There has been lots of work in existing code in a number of areas this
        past cycle.  The major highlights have been:
      
         * Removal of transport_do_task_sg_chain() from core + fabrics
           (Roland)
         * target-core: Removal of se_task abstraction from target-core and
           enforce hw_max_sectors for pSCSI backends (hch)
         * Re-factoring of iscsi-target tx immediate/response queues (agrover)
         * Conversion of iscsi-target back to using target core memory
           allocation logic (agrover)
      
        We've had one last minute iscsi-target patch go into for-next to
        address a nasty regression bug related to the target core allocation
        logic conversion from agrover that is not included in friday's
        linux-next build, but has been included in this series.
      
        On the new fabric module code front for-3.5, here is a brief status
        update for the three currently in flight this round:
      
         * usb-gadget target driver:
      
        Sebastian Siewior's driver for supporting usb-gadget target mode
        operation.  This will be going out as a separate PULL request from
        target-pending/usb-target-merge with subsystem maintainer ACKs.  There
        is one minor target-core patch in this series required to function.
      
         * sbp ieee-1394/firewire target driver:
      
        Chris Boot's driver for supportting the Serial Block Protocol (SBP)
        across IEEE-1394 Firewire hardware.  This will be going out as a
        separate PULL request from target-pending/sbp-target-merge with two
        additional drivers/firewire/ patches w/ subsystem maintainer ACKs.
      
         * qla2xxx LLD target mode infrastructure changes + tcm_qla2xxx:
      
        The Qlogic >= 24xx series HW target mode LLD infrastructure patch-set
        and tcm_qla2xxx fabric driver.  Support for FC target mode using
        qla2xxx LLD code has been officially submitted by Qlogic to James
        below, and is currently outstanding but not yet merged into
        scsi.git/for-next..
      
          [PATCH 00/22] qla2xxx: Updates for scsi "misc" branch
          http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg59350.html
      
        Note there are *zero* direct dependencies upon this for-next series
        for the qla2xxx LLD target + tcm_qla2xxx patches submitted above, and
        over the last days the target mode team has been tracking down an
        tcm_qla2xxx specific active I/O shutdown bug that appears to now be
        almost squashed for 3.5-rc-fixes."

      Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
       "A surprisingly large series of updates for regmap this time, mostly
        due to all the work Stephen Warren has done to add support for MMIO
        buses.  This wasn't really the target for the framework but it turns
        out that there's a reasonable number of cases where it's very helpful
        to use the register cache support to allow the register map to remain
        available while the device is suspended.
      
        - A MMIO bus implementation, contributed by Stephen Warren.  Currently
          this is limited to 32 bit systems and native endian registers.
        - Support for naming register maps, mainly intended for MMIO devices
          with multiple register banks.  This was also contributed by Stephen
          Warren.
        - Support for register striding, again contributed by Stephen Warren
          and mainly intended for use with MMIO as typically the registers
          will be a fixed size but byte addressed.
        - irqdomain support for the generic regmap irq_chip, including support
          for dynamically allocate interrupt numbers.
        - A function dev_get_regmap() which allows frameworks using regmap to
          obtain the regmap for a device from the struct device, making life a
          little simpler for them.
        - Updates to regmap-irq to support more chips (contributed by Graeme
          Gregory) and to use irqdomains.
        - Support for devices with 24 bit register addresses.
      
        The striding support collided with all the topic branches so the
        branches look a bit messy and eventually I just gave up.  There's also
        the TI Palmas driver and a couple of other isolated MFD patches that
        all depend on new regmap features so are being merged here."

      vfs: be even more careful about dentry RCU name lookups · 6326c71f
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Miklos Szeredi points out that we need to also worry about memory
      odering when doing the dentry name comparison asynchronously with RCU.
      
      In particular, doing a rename can do a memcpy() of one dentry name over
      another, and we want to make sure that any unlocked reader will always
      see the proper terminating NUL character, so that it won't ever run off
      the allocation.
      
      Rather than having to be extra careful with the name copy or at lookup
      time for each character, this resolves the issue by making sure that all
      names that are inlined in the dentry always have a NUL character at the
      end of the name allocation.  If we do that at dentry allocation time, we
      know that no future name copy will ever change that final NUL to
      anything else, so there are no memory ordering issues.
      
      So even if a concurrent rename ends up overwriting the NUL character
      that terminates the original name, we always know that there is one
      final NUL at the end, and there is no worry about the lockless RCU
      lookup traversing the name too far.
      
      The out-of-line allocations are never copied over, so we can just make
      sure that we write the name (with terminating NULL) and do a write
      barrier before we expose the name to anything else by setting it in the
      dentry.

      vfs: make AIO use the proper rw_verify_area() area helpers · a70b52ec
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      We had for some reason overlooked the AIO interface, and it didn't use
      the proper rw_verify_area() helper function that checks (for example)
      mandatory locking on the file, and that the size of the access doesn't
      cause us to overflow the provided offset limits etc.
      
      Instead, AIO did just the security_file_permission() thing (that
      rw_verify_area() also does) directly.
      
      This fixes it to do all the proper helper functions, which not only
      means that now mandatory file locking works with AIO too, we can
      actually remove lines of code.

      During early boot, when the scheduler hasn't really been fully set up,
      we really can't do blocking allocations because with certain (dubious)
      configurations the "might_resched()" calls can actually result in
      scheduling events.
      
      We could just make such users always use GFP_ATOMIC, but quite often the
      code that does the allocation isn't really aware of the fact that the
      scheduler isn't up yet, and forcing that kind of random knowledge on the
      initialization code is just annoying and not good for anybody.
      
      And we actually have a the 'gfp_allowed_mask' exactly for this reason:
      it's just that the kernel init sequence happens to set it to allow
      blocking allocations much too early.
      
      So move the 'gfp_allowed_mask' initialization from 'start_kernel()'
      (which is some of the earliest init code, and runs with preemption
      disabled for good reasons) into 'kernel_init()'.  kernel_init() is run
      in the newly created thread that will become the 'init' process, as
      opposed to the early startup code that runs within the context of what
      will be the first idle thread.
      
      So by the time we reach 'kernel_init()', we know that the scheduler must
      be at least limping along, because we've already scheduled from the idle
      thread into the init thread.

      net: drop NET dependency from HAVE_BPF_JIT · e47b65b0
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      There is no point having the NET dependency on the select target, as it
      forces all users to depend on NET to tell they support BPF_JIT.  Move
      the config option to the bottom of the file - this could be a nice place
      also for future "selectable" config symbols.
      
      Fix up all users to drop the dependency on NET now that it is not
      required to supress warnings for non-NET builds.

      1) Kill off support for sun4c and Cypress sun4m chips.
      
         And as a result we were able to also kill off that ugly btfixup thing
         that required multi-stage links of the final vmlinux image in the
         Kbuild system.  This should make the kbuild maintainers really happy.
      
         Thanks a lot to Sam Ravnborg for his tireless efforts to get this
         going.
      
      2) Convert sparc64 to nobootmem.  I suspect now with sparc32 being a lot
         cleaner, it should be able to fall in line and modernize in this area
         too.

      [ I fixed up the BPF rules, and tried to clean up the build rules too.
        But I don't have - or want - a sparc cross-build environment, so the

      Pull networking changes from David Miller:
      
       1) Get rid of the error prone NLA_PUT*() macros that used an embedded
          goto.
      
       2) Kill off the token-ring and MCA networking drivers, from Paul
          Gortmaker.
      
       3) Reduce high-order allocations made by datagram AF_UNIX sockets, from
          Eric Dumazet.
      
       4) Add PTP hardware clock support to IGB and IXGBE, from Richard
          Cochran and Jacob Keller.
      
       5) Allow users to query timestamping capabilities of a card via
          ethtool, from Richard Cochran.
      
       6) Add loadbalance mode to the teaming driver, from Jiri Pirko.  Part
          of this is that we can now have BPF filters not attached to sockets,
          and the loadbalancing function is calculated using one.
      
       7) Francois Romieu went through the network drivers removing gratuitous
          uses of netdev->base_addr, perhaps some day we can remove it
          completely but it's used for ISA probing still.
      
       8) Add a BPF JIT for sparc.  I know, who cares, right? :-)
      
       9) Move networking sysctl registry away from using the compatability
          mode interfaces in the sysctl code.  From Eric W Biederman.
      
      10) Pavel Emelyanov added a way to save and restore TCP socket state via
          TCP_REPAIR, TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE, and TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socket options as
          well as a way to forcefully bind a socket to a port via the
          sk->sk_reuse value SK_FORCE_REUSE.  There is also a
          TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS which allows to reinstante the TCP options
          enabled on the connection.
      
      11) Several enhancements from Eric Dumazet that, in particular, can
          enhance splice performance on TCP sockets significantly.
      
           a) Reset the offset of the per-socket sendmsg page when we know
              we're the only use of the page in linear_to_page().
      
           b) Add facilities such that skb->data can be backed a page rather
              than SLAB kmalloc'd memory.  In particular devices which were
              receiving into linear RX buffers can now end up providing paged
              data.
      
          The big result is that code like splice and GRO do not have to copy
          any more.
      
      12) Allow a pure sender to more gracefully handle ACK backlogs in TCP.
          What can happen at high rates is that the sender hasn't grown his
          receive buffer limits at all (he's not receiving data so really
          doesn't need to), but the non-data ACKs consume receive buffer
          space.
      
          sk_add_backlog() is too aggressive in dropping frames in this case,
          so relax it's requirements by using the receive buffer plus the send
          buffer limit as the backlog limit instead of just the former.
      
          Also from Eric Dumazet.
      
      13) Add ipv6 support to L2TP, from Benjamin LaHaise, James Chapman, and
          Chris Elston.
      
      14) Implement TCP early retransmit (RFC 5827), from Yuchung Cheng.
          Basically, we can start fast retransmit before hiting the dupack
          threshold under certain conditions.
      
      15) New CODEL active queue management packet scheduler, from Eric
          Dumazet based upon initial work by Dave Taht.
      
          Basically, the big feature is that packets are dropped (or ECN bits
          are set) based upon how long packets live in the queue, rather than
          the queue length (which is what RED uses).

      small fork/exec's: shell scripts etc).
      
      Moving the nr_accounted calculations to where they belong at least
      clarifies things a little.  I hope to come back to look at the
