The idle threads for non-boot CPUs are a bit special in how they are created; the result is that these don't have the stack canary set up properly in their PDA. Easiest fix is to just always set the PDA up correctly when entering the idle thread; this is a NOP for the boot cpu.

fix a bug noticed and fixed by pageexec@freemail.hu. if built with -fstack-protector-all then we'll have canary checks built into the __switch_to() function. That does not work well with the canary-switching code there: while we already use the %rsp of the new task, we still call __switch_to() whith the previous task's canary value in the PDA, hence the __switch_to() ssp prologue instructions will store the previous canary. Then we update the PDA and upon return from __switch_to() the canary check triggers and we panic. so update the canary after we have called __switch_to(), where we are at the same stackframe level as the last stackframe of the next (and now freshly current) task. Note: this means that we call __switch_to() [and its sub-functions] still with the old canary, but that is not a problem, both the previous and the next task has a high-quality canary. The only (mostly academic) disadvantage is that the canary of one task may leak onto the stack of another task, increasing the risk of information leaks, were an attacker able to read the stack of specific tasks (but not that of others). To solve this we'll have to reorganize the way we switch tasks, and move the PDA setting into the switch_to() assembly code. That will happen in another patch.

on paravirt enabled 64-bit kernels the paravirt ops do function calls themselves - which is bad with the stackprotector - for example pda_init() loads 0 into %gs and then does MSR_GS_BASE write (which modifies gs.base) - but that MSR write is a function call on paravirt, which with stackprotector tries to read the stack canary from the PDA ... crashing the bootup. the solution was suggested by Arjan van de Ven: to exclude paravirt.c from stackprotector, too many lowlevel functionality is in it. It's not like we'll have paravirt functions with character arrays on their stack anyway...

These magic greps and hacks in ver_linux to get the gcc version always break after some gcc releases. Since now gcc >4.3 allows compiling with '--with-pkgversion' ( which can be everything 'My Cool Gcc' or something ) ver_linux will report random junk for these.

On Book-E SMP systems each core has its own private watchdog. If only one watchdog is enabled, when the core that doesn't enable the watchdog is hung, system can't reset because no watchdog is running on it. That's bad. It means we must enable watchdogs on both cores. We can use smp_call_function() to send appropriate messages to all the other cores to enable and update the watchdog.

Somehow the spidev code forgot to include a critical mechanism: when the underlying device is removed (e.g. spi_master rmmod), open file descriptors must be prevented from issuing new I/O requests to that device. On penalty of the oopsing reported by Sebastian Siewior <bigeasy@tglx.de> ... This is a partial fix, adding handshaking between the lower level (SPI messaging) and the file operations using the spi_dev. (It also fixes an issue where reads and writes didn't return the number of bytes sent or received.) There's still a refcounting issue to be addressed (separately).

This is a slight change in the namespace cgroup subsystem api. The change is that previously when cgroup_clone() was called (currently only from the unshare path in ns_proxy cgroup, you'd get a new group named "node_$pid" whereas now you'll get a group named after just your pid.) The only users who would notice it are those who are using the ns_proxy cgroup subsystem to auto-create cgroups when namespaces are unshared - something of an experimental feature, which I think really needs more complete container/namespace support in order to be useful. I suspect the only users are Cedric and Serge, or maybe a few others on containers@lists.linux-foundation.org. And in fact it would only be noticed by the users who make the assumption about how the name is generated, rather than getting it from the /proc/<pid>/cgroups file for the process in question. Whether the change is actually needed or not I'm fairly agnostic on, but I guess it is more elegant to just use the pid as the new group name rather than adding a fairly arbitrary "node_" prefix on the front.

Trying to add memory via add_memory() from within an initcall function results in bootmem alloc of 163840 bytes failed! Kernel panic - not syncing: Out of memory This is caused by zone_wait_table_init() which uses system_state to decide if it should use the bootmem allocator or not. When initcalls are handled the system_state is still SYSTEM_BOOTING but the bootmem allocator doesn't work anymore. So the allocation will fail. To fix this use slab_is_available() instead as indicator like we do it everywhere else.

In 2.6.25, ramdisk devices show up in /proc/partitions, which is a behaviour change from the old rd.c. Add GENHD_FL_SUPPRESS_PARTITION_INFO, which was present in rd.c. All kernels prior to 2.6.25 weren't displaying ramdisks in /proc/partitions. Since there are many userspace tools using information from /proc/partitions some of them may now behave incorrectly (I didn't tested any though). For example before 2.6.25 /proc/partitions was empty if no block devices like hard disks and such were detected by kernel. Now all 16 ramdisks are always visible there. Some software may rely on such information (I mean, on empty /proc/partitions). There was quite similar situation back in 2004, and ramdisks were excluded back from displaying. Thats why I called this a regression (maybe a bit unfortunate). See this patch for info: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.3-rc2/2.6.3-rc2-mm1/broken-out/nbd-proc-partitions-fix.patch I also think that someone somewhere (long time ago) excluded ramdisks from /proc/partitions for good reasons. It is possible that now such new "feature" is harmless, but I think there are more chances that someone will say "hey, /proc/partitions has changed, now my software doesn't work" then "hey where did my new 2.6.25 feature go". nbd devices are also excluded, maybe for very same (unknown to me) reasons.
