Add a miscellaneous device to the autofs4 module for routing ioctls. This provides the ability to obtain an ioctl file handle for an autofs mount point that is possibly covered by another mount. The actual problem with autofs is that it can't reconnect to existing mounts. Immediately one things of just adding the ability to remount autofs file systems would solve it, but alas, that can't work. This is because autofs direct mounts and the implementation of "on demand mount and expire" of nested mount trees have the file system mounted on top of the mount trigger dentry. To resolve this a miscellaneous device node for routing ioctl commands to these mount points has been implemented in the autofs4 kernel module and a library added to autofs. This provides the ability to open a file descriptor for these over mounted autofs mount points. Please refer to Documentation/filesystems/autofs4-mount-control.txt for a discussion of the problem, implementation alternatives considered and a description of the interface.

The I2O ioctls assume 32bits. In itself that is fine as they are old cards and nobody uses 64bit. However on LKML it was noted this assumption is also made for allocated memory and is unsafe on 64bit systems. Fixing this is a mess. It turns out there is tons of crap buried in a header file that does racy 32/64bit filtering on the masks. So we: - Verify all callers of the racy code can sleep (i2o_dma_[re]alloc) - Move the code into a new i2o/memory.c file - Remove the gfp_mask argument so nobody can try and misuse the function - Wrap a mutex around the problem area (a single mutex is easy to do and none of this is performance relevant) - Switch the remaining problem kmalloc holdout to use i2o_dma_alloc Cc: Markus Lidel <Markus.Lidel@shadowconnect.com> Cc: Vasily Averin <vvs@sw.ru> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

binfmt_script and binfmt_misc disallow recursion to avoid stack overflow using sh_bang and misc_bang. It causes problem in some cases: $ echo '#!/bin/ls' > /tmp/t0 $ echo '#!/tmp/t0' > /tmp/t1 $ echo '#!/tmp/t1' > /tmp/t2 $ chmod +x /tmp/t* $ /tmp/t2 zsh: exec format error: /tmp/t2 Similar problem with binfmt_misc. This patch introduces field 'recursion_depth' into struct linux_binprm to track recursion level in binfmt_misc and binfmt_script. If recursion level more then BINPRM_MAX_RECURSION it generates -ENOEXEC. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: make linux_binprm.recursion_depth a uint] Signed-off-by: NKirill A.

struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so cp_compat_stat should be, too. Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.

Way too often, I have a machine that exhibits some kind of crappy behavior. The CPU looks wedged in the kernel or it is spending way too much system time and I wonder what is responsible. I try to run readprofile. But, of course, Ubuntu doesn't enable it by default. Dang! The reason we boot-time enable it is that it takes a big bufffer that we generally can only bootmem alloc. But, does it hurt to at least try and runtime-alloc it? To use: echo 2 > /sys/kernel/profile Then run readprofile like normal. This should fix the compile issue with allmodconfig. I've compile-tested on a bunch more configs now including a few more architectures.

It's somewhat unlikely that it happens, but right now a race window between interrupts or machine checks or oopses could corrupt the tainted bitmap because it is modified in a non atomic fashion. Convert the taint variable to an unsigned long and use only atomic bit operations on it. Unfortunately this means the intvec sysctl functions cannot be used on it anymore. It turned out the taint sysctl handler could actually be simplified a bit (since it only increases capabilities) so this patch actually removes code.

is_sync_wait() is used to distinguish between sync and async waits. Basically sync waits are the ones initialized with init_waitqueue_entry() and async ones with init_waitqueue_func_entry(). The sync/async distinction is used only in prepare_to_wait[_exclusive]() and its only function is to skip setting the current task state if the wait is async. This has a few problems. * No one uses it. None of func_entry users use prepare_to_wait() functions, so the code path never gets executed. * The distinction is bogus. Maybe back when func_entry is used only by aio but it's now also used by epoll and in future possibly by 9p and poll/select. * Taking @state as argument and ignoring it silenly depending on how @wait is initialized is just a bad error-prone API. * It prevents func_entry waits from using wait->private for no good reason. This patch kills is_sync_wait() and the associated code paths from prepare_to_wait[_exclusive](). As there was no user of these code paths, this patch doesn't cause any behavior difference.

Use the '%pF' format to get rid of an "#ifdef DEBUG" and make some printks atomic. This removes the last in-tree uses of print_fn_descriptor_symbol(). I marked print_fn_descriptor_symbol() deprecated and scheduled it for removal next year to give time for out-of-tree modules to be updated. parisc's print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is currently broken there (it needs to dereference the function pointer similar to ia64 and power). This patch shouldn't make anything worse, but it means we need to fix dereference_function_descriptor() instead of print_fn_descriptor_symbol() to get meaningful initcall_debug output.

We currently use a PM notifier to disable user mode helpers before suspend and hibernation and to re-enable them during resume. However, this is not an ideal solution, because if any drivers want to upload firmware into memory before suspend, they have to use a PM notifier for this purpose and there is no guarantee that the ordering of PM notifiers will be as expected (ie. the notifier that disables user mode helpers has to be run after the driver's notifier used for uploading the firmware). For this reason, it seems better to move the disabling and enabling of user mode helpers to separate functions that will be called by the PM core as necessary.

Commit 8006479c introduced a spinlock in input_dev->event_lock, which is locked when handling input events. However, the hid-pidff driver sleeps when handling events as it waits for reports being sent to the device before changing the report contents again. This causes a system lockup when trying to use force feedback with a PID device, a regression introduced in 2.6.24 and 2.6.23.15. Fix it by extracting the raw report data from struct hid_report immediately when hid_submit_report() is called, therefore allowing drivers to change the contents of struct hid_report immediately without affecting the already-queued transfer. In hid-pidff, re-add the removed usbhid_wait_io() to pidff_erase_effect() instead, to prevent a full report queue from causing the submission to fail, thus not freeing up device memory. pidff_erase_effect() is not called while dev->event_lock is held.
