Include autoconf.h into every kernel compilation via the gcc command line using -imacros. This ensures that we have the kernel configuration included from the start, rather than relying on each file having #include <linux/config.h> as appropriate. History has shown that this is something which is difficult to get right. Since we now include the kernel configuration automatically, make configcheck becomes meaningless, so remove it.

Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it. This field indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus. This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be converted to the generic phy layer among other drivers. Many systems lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return 0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm working on also makes use of this mask.

This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the nvidiafb framebuffer driver. All it does is add the PCI device id for the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work on these cards. I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm. I now can get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!!

RFC 3530 states that for OPEN_DOWNGRADE "The share_access and share_deny bits specified must be exactly equal to the union of the share_access and share_deny bits specified for some subset of the OPENs in effect for current openowner on the current file. Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that it may cause a downgrade from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH to OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE despite the fact that there exists no open file with O_WRONLY access mode. Fix the problem by replacing nfs4_find_state() with a modified version of nfs_find_open_context(). Signed-off-by: NTrond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

This patch is a rewrite of the one submitted on October 1st, using modules (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112819093522998&w=2). This rewrite adds a tristate CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, which enables an intense torture test of the RCU infratructure. This is needed due to the continued changes to the RCU infrastructure to accommodate dynamic ticks, CPU hotplug, realtime, and so on. Most of the code is in a separate file that is compiled only if the CONFIG variable is set. Documentation on how to run the test and interpret the output is also included. This code has been tested on i386 and ppc64, and an earlier version of the code has received extensive testing on a number of architectures as part of the PREEMPT_RT patchset.

The attached patch adds LSM hooks for key management facilities. The notable changes are: (1) The key struct now supports a security pointer for the use of security modules. This will permit key labelling and restrictions on which programs may access a key. (2) Security modules get a chance to note (or abort) the allocation of a key. (3) The key permission checking can now be enhanced by the security modules; the permissions check consults LSM if all other checks bear out. (4) The key permissions checking functions now return an error code rather than a boolean value. (5) An extra permission has been added to govern the modification of attributes (UID, GID, permissions). Note that there isn't an LSM hook specifically for each keyctl() operation, but rather the permissions hook allows control of individual operations based on the permission request bits. Key management access control through LSM is enabled by automatically if both CONFIG_KEYS and CONFIG_SECURITY are enabled.

由 Paul Jackson 提交于
This patch automatically updates a tasks NUMA mempolicy when its cpuset memory placement changes. It does so within the context of the task, without any need to support low level external mempolicy manipulation. If a system is not using cpusets, or if running on a system with just the root (all-encompassing) cpuset, then this remap is a no-op. Only when a task is moved between cpusets, or a cpusets memory placement is changed does the following apply. Otherwise, the main routine below, rebind_policy() is not even called. When mixing cpusets, scheduler affinity, and NUMA mempolicies, the essential role of cpusets is to place jobs (several related tasks) on a set of CPUs and Memory Nodes, the essential role of sched_setaffinity is to manage a jobs processor placement within its allowed cpuset, and the essential role of NUMA mempolicy (mbind, set_mempolicy) is to manage a jobs memory placement within its allowed cpuset. However, CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement are managed within the kernel using absolute system wide numbering, not cpuset relative numbering. This is ok until a job is migrated to a different cpuset, or what's the same, a jobs cpuset is moved to different CPUs and Memory Nodes. Then the CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement of the tasks in the job need to be updated, to preserve their cpuset-relative position. This can be done for CPU affinity using sched_setaffinity() from user code, as one task can modify anothers CPU affinity. This cannot be done from an external task for NUMA memory placement, as that can only be modified in the context of the task using it. However, it easy enough to remap a tasks NUMA mempolicy automatically when a task is migrated, using the existing cpuset mechanism to trigger a refresh of a tasks memory placement after its cpuset has changed. All that is needed is the old and new nodemask, and notice to the task that it needs to rebind its mempolicy. The tasks mems_allowed has the old mask, the tasks cpuset has the new mask, and the existing cpuset_update_current_mems_allowed() mechanism provides the notice. The bitmap/cpumask/nodemask remap operators provide the cpuset relative calculations. This patch leaves open a couple of issues: 1) Updating vma and shmfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs memory policies: These mempolicies may reference nodes outside of those allowed to the current task by its cpuset. Tasks are migrated as part of jobs, which reside on what might be several cpusets in a subtree. When such a job is migrated, all NUMA memory policy references to nodes within that cpuset subtree should be translated, and references to any nodes outside that subtree should be left untouched. A future patch will provide the cpuset mechanism needed to mark such subtrees. With that patch, we will be able to correctly migrate these other memory policies across a job migration. 2) Updating cpuset, affinity and memory policies in user space: This is harder. Any placement state stored in user space using system-wide numbering will be invalidated across a migration. More work will be required to provide user code with a migration-safe means to manage its cpuset relative placement, while preserving the current API's that pass system wide numbers, not cpuset relative numbers across the kernel-user boundary.

In the forthcoming task migration support, a key calculation will be mapping cpu and node numbers from the old set to the new set while preserving cpuset-relative offset. For example, if a task and its pages on nodes 8-11 are being migrated to nodes 24-27, then pages on node 9 (the 2nd node in the old set) should be moved to node 25 (the 2nd node in the new set.) As with other bitmap operations, the proper way to code this is to provide the underlying calculation in lib/bitmap.c, and then to provide the usual cpumask and nodemask wrappers. This patch provides that. These operations are termed 'remap' operations. Both remapping a single bit and a set of bits is supported.

Overhaul cpuset locking. Replace single semaphore with two semaphores. The suggestion to use two locks was made by Roman Zippel. Both locks are global. Code that wants to modify cpusets must first acquire the exclusive manage_sem, which allows them read-only access to cpusets, and holds off other would-be modifiers. Before making actual changes, the second semaphore, callback_sem must be acquired as well. Code that needs only to query cpusets must acquire callback_sem, which is also a global exclusive lock. The earlier problems with double tripping are avoided, because it is allowed for holders of manage_sem to nest the second callback_sem lock, and only callback_sem is needed by code called from within __alloc_pages(), where the double tripping had been possible. This is not quite the same as a normal read/write semaphore, because obtaining read-only access with intent to change must hold off other such attempts, while allowing read-only access w/o such intention. Changing cpusets involves several related checks and changes, which must be done while allowing read-only queries (to avoid the double trip), but while ensuring nothing changes (holding off other would be modifiers.) This overhaul of cpuset locking also makes careful use of task_lock() to guard access to the task->cpuset pointer, closing a couple of race conditions noticed while reading this code (thanks, Roman). I've never seen these races fail in any use or test. See further the comments in the code.
