48 bytes (bytes 464..511) of the xstateregs payload come from the kernel defined structure (xstate_fx_sw_bytes). Rest comes from the xstate regs structure in the thread struct. Instead of having multiple user_regset_copyout()'s, simplify the xstateregs_get() by first copying the SW bytes into the xstate regs structure in the thread structure and then using one user_regset_copyout() to copyout the xstateregs.

> FYI, this commit broke tip:master on PARISC (other architectures are fine): > > kernel/built-in.o: In function `ptrace_request': > (.text.ptrace_request+0x2cc): undefined reference to `task_user_regset_view' This means that parisc failed to meet the documented requirements for setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK, but set it anyway. If arch folks don't follow the specs, it defeats the whole purpose of having clear statements of requirements for arch code. Until parisc finishes up its requirements, disable CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK. Signed-off-by: H.

Generic support for PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET commands which export the regsets supported by each architecture using the correponding NT_* types. These NT_* types are already part of the userland ABI, used in representing the architecture specific register sets as different NOTES in an ELF core file. 'addr' parameter for the ptrace system call encode the REGSET type (using the corresppnding NT_* type) and the 'data' parameter points to the struct iovec having the user buffer and the length of that buffer. struct iovec iov = { buf, len}; ret = ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET, pid, NT_XXX_TYPE, &iov); On successful completion, iov.len will be updated by the kernel specifying how much the kernel has written/read to/from the user's iov.buf. x86 extended state registers are primarily exported using this interface.

Add the xstate regset support which helps extend the kernel ptrace and the core-dump interfaces to support AVX state etc. This regset interface is designed to support all the future state that gets supported using xsave/xrstor infrastructure. Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or the state is not saved in the memory layout. And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented in the memory layout. First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0). The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows. This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea3 ("mm: variable length argument support") and unmasked by fc63cf23 ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails to return errors"). This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg. 80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before they start. This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below 1280K will kill every process. To test, do: 'ulimit -s 15; ls' before and after the patch is applied. Before it's applied, 'ls' should be killed. After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed. A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE. Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle correctly with this code. 4K pages should be fine to test with.

Commit b4846251 ("edac: mpc85xx add mpc83xx support") accidentally broke how a chip select's first and last page addresses are calculated. The page addresses are being shifted too far right by PAGE_SHIFT. This results in errors such as: EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Err addr: 0x003075c0 EDAC MPC85xx MC1: PFN: 0x00000307 EDAC MPC85xx MC1: PFN out of range! EDAC MC1: INTERNAL ERROR: row out of range (4 >= 4) EDAC MC1: CE - no information available: INTERNAL ERROR The vaule of PAGE_SHIFT is already being taken into consideration during the calculation of the 'start' and 'end' variables, thus it is not necessary to account for it again when setting a chip select's first and last page address.

This patch fixes a bug in the multiblock write tests where the written data is read back for verifying one block at a time. The tests in mmc_test assumes that all cards are byte addressable. This will cause the multi block write tests to fail, leading the user of the mmc_test driver thinking there is something wrong with the sdhci driver they are testing. The start address for the block is calculated as: blocknum * 512. For block addressable cards the blocknum alone should be used.

This patch corrects a userspace pointer dereference in the VGA arbiter in 2.6.32.1. copy_from_user() is used at line 822 to copy the contents of buf into kbuf, but a call to strncmp() on line 964 uses buf rather than kbuf. This problem led to a GPF in strncmp() when X was started on my x86_32 systems. X triggered the behavior with a write of "target PCI:0000:01:00.0" to /dev/vga_arbiter. The patch has been tested against 2.6.32.1 and observed to correct the GPF observed when starting X or manually writing the string "target PCI:0000:01:00.0" to /dev/vga_arbiter.
