It's strange enough to be looking out for anonymous pages in VM_UNPAGED areas, let's not insert the ZERO_PAGE there - though whether it would matter will depend on what we decide about ZERO_PAGE refcounting. But whereas do_anonymous_page may (exceptionally) be called on a VM_UNPAGED area, do_no_page should never be: just BUG_ON.

copy_one_pte needs to copy the anonymous COWed pages in a VM_UNPAGED area, zap_pte_range needs to free them, do_wp_page needs to COW them: just like ordinary pages, not like the unpaged. But recognizing them is a little subtle: because PageReserved is no longer a condition for remap_pfn_range, we can now mmap all of /dev/mem (whether the distro permits, and whether it's advisable on this or that architecture, is another matter). So if we can see a PageAnon, it may not be ours to mess with (or may be ours from elsewhere in the address space). I suspect there's an entertaining insoluble self-referential problem here, but the page_is_anon function does a good practical job, and MAP_PRIVATE PROT_WRITE VM_UNPAGED will always be an odd choice. In updating the comment on page_address_in_vma, noticed a potential NULL dereference, in a path we don't actually take, but fixed it.

Remove the BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_UNPAGED) from do_wp_page, and let it do Copy-On-Write without touching the VM_UNPAGED's page counts - but this is incomplete, because the anonymous page it inserts will itself need to be handled, here and in other functions - next patch. We still don't copy the page if the pfn is invalid, because the copy_user_highpage interface does not allow it. But that's not been a problem in the past: can be added in later if the need arises.

There's one peculiar use of VM_RESERVED which the previous patch left behind: because VM_NONLINEAR's try_to_unmap_cluster uses vm_private_data as a swapout cursor, but should never meet VM_RESERVED vmas, it was a way of extending VM_NONLINEAR to VM_RESERVED vmas using vm_private_data for some other purpose. But that's an empty set - they don't have the populate function required. So just throw away those VM_RESERVED tests. But one more interesting in rmap.c has to go too: try_to_unmap_one will want to swap out an anonymous page from VM_RESERVED or VM_UNPAGED area.

Although we tend to associate VM_RESERVED with remap_pfn_range, quite a few drivers set VM_RESERVED on areas which are then populated by nopage. The PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 changed VM_RESERVED not to free pages in zap_pte_range, without changing those drivers not to set it: so their pages just leak away. Let's not change miscellaneous drivers now: introduce VM_UNPAGED at the core, to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they have then it's not to be touched. Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in core mm by VM_UNPAGED. Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range. Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there. Is it needed anywhere? It still governs the mm->reserved_vm statistic, and special vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages don't get on). Use the VM_SHM slot for VM_UNPAGED, and define VM_SHM to 0: it serves no purpose whatsoever, and should be removed from drivers when we clean up.

It looks like snd_xxx is not the only nopage to be using PageReserved as a way of holding a high-order page together: which no longer works, but is masked by our failure to free from VM_RESERVED areas. We cannot fix that bug without first substituting another way to hold the high-order page together, while farming out the 0-order pages from within it. That's just what PageCompound is designed for, but it's been kept under CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE. Remove the #ifdefs: which saves some space (out- of-line put_page), doesn't slow down what most needs to be fast (already using hugetlb), and unifies the way we handle high-order pages.

Something noticed when studying use of VM_RESERVED in different drivers: snd_usX2Y_hwdep_pcm_vm_nopage omitted to get_page: fixed. And how did this work before? Aargh! That nopage is returning a page from within a buffer allocated by snd_malloc_pages, which allocates a high-order page, then does SetPageReserved on each 0-order page within. That would have worked in 2.6.14, because when the area was unmapped, PageReserved inhibited put_page. 2.6.15-rc1 removed that inhibition (while leaving ineffective PageReserveds around for now), but it hasn't caused trouble because.. we've not been freeing from VM_RESERVED at all.

The PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 issued a "deprecated" message when you tried to mmap or mprotect MAP_PRIVATE PROT_WRITE a VM_RESERVED, and failed with -EACCES: because do_wp_page lacks the refinement to COW pages in those areas, nor do we expect to find anonymous pages in them; and it seemed just bloat to add code for handling such a peculiar case. But immediately it caused vbetool and ddcprobe (using lrmi) to fail. So revert the "deprecated" messages, letting mmap and mprotect succeed. But leave do_wp_page's BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_RESERVED) in place until we've added the code to do it right: so this particular patch is only good if the app doesn't really need to write to that private area.

The PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 prohibited get_user_pages on the areas flagged VM_RESERVED in place of PageReserved. That is correct in theory - we ought not to interfere with struct pages in such a reserved area; but in practice it broke BTTV for one. So revert to prohibiting only on VM_IO: if someone gets into trouble with get_user_pages on VM_RESERVED, it'll just be a "don't do that". You can argue that videobuf_mmap_mapper shouldn't set VM_RESERVED in the first place, but now's not the time for breaking drivers without notice.

This patch makes stub_segv use the stub_syscall macros. This was needed anyway, but the bug that prompted this was the discovery that gcc was storing stuff in RCX, which is trashed across a system call. This is exactly the sort of problem that the new macros fix. There is a stub_syscall0 for getpid. stub_segv was changed to be a libc file, and that caused some include changes.

We have a bug in the i386 stub_syscall6 which pushes ebp before the system call and pops it afterwards. Because we use syscall6 to remap the stack, the old contents of the stack (and the former value of ebp) are no longer available. Some versions of gcc make from a real local, accessed through ebp, despite my efforts to make it obvious that references to from are really constants. This patch attempts to make it even more obvious by eliminating from and using a macro to access the stub's data explicitly with constants. My original thinking on this was to replace syscall6 with a remap_stack interface which saved ebp someplace and restored it afterwards. The problem is that there are no registers to put it in, except for esp. That could work, since we can store a constant in esp after the mmap because we just replaced the stack. However, this approach seems a tad cleaner. Signed-off-by: NJeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Kill the arq->state poison statement in as_add_request(), it can trigger for perfectly valid code that just reuses a request after io completion instead of freeing it and allocating a new one.
