getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: NJeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* allow kernel_execve() leave the actual return to userland to caller (selected by CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE). Callers updated accordingly. * architecture that does select GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE in its Kconfig should have its ret_from_kernel_thread() do this: call schedule_tail call the callback left for it by copy_thread(); if it ever returns, that's because it has just done successful kernel_execve() jump to return from syscall IOW, its only difference from ret_from_fork() is that it does call the callback. * such an architecture should also get rid of ret_from_kernel_execve() and __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE This is the last part of infrastructure patches in that area - from that point on work on different architectures can live independently.

This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature looks like this: kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed Call Trace: [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed to happen.

In case we have both NEED_RESCHED and SIGPENDING/NOTIFY_RESUME, handle the latter first. We'll get to original priorities in the next commit, but now that allows to simplify the treatment of NEED_RESCHED-only case nicely. Namely, now there no need to preserve the data for restarts across the call of schedule() in $work_resched; we can get there only if we had either returned from syscall without SIGPENDING (in which case we should've had no restart-worthy return value and want no restarts) or already got through do_notify_resume() call (in which case we want no restarts anymore). So we can just slap 0 into $19 instead of preserving it (and $20). Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Missing error types, attributes, and report fields. Pad out to 64-bytes. Make string reporting cleaner and easier to extend in the future using "const char *" arrays that index by either bit position, or absolute field value. Report the raw 64-byte error report as a sequence of u64s before the annotated version. Only report fields which are valid, given the context and the attribute bits which are set. For shutdown requests, use the local copy of the error report not the one we just freed up back to the queue. Also, use orderly_poweroff() just like the Domain Services shutdown request code does. If the real-address reported is "-1" (unknown) try to disassemble the instruction to report the effective address of the access. Only do this in privileged mode. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Upgrade nomadik pinctrl driver to enable selection of other alternate-C[1-4] functions on some specific ux500 SoC pins. Handling of those functions is done thanks to PRCM GPIOCR registers. This was previously managed in PRCMU driver and it was not really convenient. Idea is to provide a common way to control all alternate functions. Note that this improvement does not support the old-fashioned way used to control nomadik pins, namely the "nmk_config_pin()" function and its derivatives.

Within the identity mapping the kernel text section is mapped read-only. However when mapping the first and last page of the text section we must round upwards and downwards respectively, if only parts of a page belong to the section.
