*) Reorganize the two cases of sys_modify_ldt to share all the reasonably common code. *) Avoid memory allocation when unneeded (i.e. when we are writing and the passed buffer size is known), thus not returning ENOMEM (which isn't allowed for this syscall, even if there is no strict "specification"). *) Add copy_{from,to}_user to modify_ldt for TT mode.

A big bug has been diagnosed on hosts running the SKAS patch and built with CONFIG_REGPARM, due to some missing prevent_tail_call(). On these hosts, this workaround is needed to avoid triggering that bug, because "to" is kept by GCC only in EBX, which is corrupted at the return of mmap2(). Since to trigger this bug int 0x80 must be used when doing the call, it rarely manifests itself, so I'd prefer to get this merged to workaround that host bug, since it should cause no functional change. Still, you might prefer to drop it, I'll leave this to you.

Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk> This construct is refused by GCC 4, so here's the (corrected) fix. Thanks to Russell for noticing a stupid mistake I did when first sending this. As he noted, the code is largely suboptimal however it currently works, and will be fixed shortly. Just read the access_ok check on fp which is NULL, or the pointer arithmetic below which should be done with a cast to void*: frame = (struct rt_sigframe __user *) round_down(stack_top - sizeof(struct rt_sigframe), 16) - 8; The code shows clearly that has been taken from arch/x86_64/kernel/signal.c:setup_rt_frame(), maybe in a bit of a hurry.

XPC calls smp_processor_id() twice from xpc_setup_infrastructure() with preemption enabled, which gets flagged if 'DEBUG_PREEMPT=y'.

Add special case for the POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint values for s390-64. The user space values in the s390-64 glibc headers for these two defines have always been 6 and 7 instead of 4 and 5. All 64 bit applications therefore use the "wrong" values. To get these applications working without recompiling the kernel needs to accept the "wrong" values. Since the values for s390-31 are 4 and 5 the compat wrapper for fadvise64 and fadvise64_64 need to rewrite the values for 31 bit system calls.

This patch: [PATCH] Remove i386_ksyms.c, almost made files like smp.c do their own EXPORT_SYMBOLS. This means that all subarchitectures that override these symbols now have to do the exports themselves. This patch adds the exports for voyager (which is the most affected since it has a separate smp harness). However, someone should audit all the other subarchitectures to see if any others got broken.

inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly its inability to scale and its terrible user interface: * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount. * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of stat structures. * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals? inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change notification: * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO. You get a single fd, which is select()-able. * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item you were watching is on was unmounted." * inotify can watch directories or files. Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure), Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects. See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

The Altix subarch does not provide node information via ACPI. Instead hooks are used to fixup pci structures. This patch determines the nodes for Altix PCI busses. Remote Bridges: --------------- Altix supports remote I/O nodes without memory or processors but with bridges. The TIOCA type of bridge is an AGP bridge and the PROM provides information about the closest node. That information will be returned by pcibus_to_node. The TIOCP remote bridge type is a PCI bridge but the PROM does not provide a closest node id. pcibus_to_node will return -1 for devices on those bridges meaning that device control structures may be allocated on any node. Safeguard: ---------- Should the fixups result in invalid node information for a pci controller then a warning will be printed and pcibus_to_node will return -1. This patch also fixes the "FIXME" in sn_dma_alloc_coherent. This means that dma_alloc_coherent will now use alloc_pages_node to allocate memory local to the node that the PCI device is connected to.

pcibus_to_node provides a way for the Linux kernel to identify to which node a certain pcibus connects to. Allocations of control structures for devices can then be made on the node where the pci bus is located to allow local access during interrupt and other device manipulation. This patch provides a new "node" field in the the pci_controller structure. The node field will be set based on ACPI information (thanks to Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com for that piece).

Create a new top-level menu named "Networking" thus moving net related options and protocol selection way from the drivers menu and up on the top-level where they belong. To implement this all architectures has to source "net/Kconfig" before drivers/*/Kconfig in their Kconfig file. This change has been implemented for all architectures. Device drivers for ordinary NIC's are still to be found in the Device Drivers section, but Bluetooth, IrDA and ax25 are located with their corresponding menu entries under the new networking menu item.

Current assign_irq_vector() will panic if interrupt vectors is running out. But I think how to handle the case of lack of interrupt vectors should be handled by the caller of this function. For example, some PCI devices can raise the interrupt signal via both MSI and I/O APIC. So even if the driver for these device fails to allocate a vector for MSI, the driver still has a chance to use I/O APIC based interrupt. But currently there is no chance for these driver to use I/O APIC based interrupt because kernel will panic when assign_irq_vector() fails to allocate interrupt vector. The following patch changes assign_irq_vector() for ia64 to return -ENOSPC on error instead of panic (as i386 and x86_64 versions do).
