The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values. A simplified version of the semantic patch making this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @ change_compare_np @ expression E; @@ ( - jiffies <= E + time_before_eq(jiffies,E) | - jiffies >= E + time_after_eq(jiffies,E) | - jiffies < E + time_before(jiffies,E) | - jiffies > E + time_after(jiffies,E) ) @ include depends on change_compare_np @ @@ #include <linux/jiffies.h> @ no_include depends on !include && change_compare_np @ @@ #include <linux/...> + #include <linux/jiffies.h> // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Alex Williamson authored
Thomas Koeller had reported an issue where a device that had been making use of the UART_BUG_TXEN code in the 8250 driver was mistakenly being caught by the backup timer test, causing the device to work improperly. To fix this, tighten the test requirements to enable the backup timer workaround. The backup timer is really meant to catch UARTs that don't re-assert the THRE interrupt. The expectation is that they do initially assert THRE. This patch clarifies the test.

Russell King noticed this one: We have to avoid replacing B0 when we pick a baud rate for a "hung up" port. Ugly but the proper fix is in the tty layer and means changing the tty<->serial interfaces so we will defer that for now.

We try and write the correct speed back but the serial midlayer already mangles the speed on us and that means if we request B0 we report back B9600 when we should not. For now we'll hack around this in the drivers and serial code, pending a better long term solution.

Filesystem capability support makes it possible to do away with (set)uid-0 based privilege and use capabilities instead. That is, with filesystem support for capabilities but without this present patch, it is (conceptually) possible to manage a system with capabilities alone and never need to obtain privilege via (set)uid-0. Of course, conceptually isn't quite the same as currently possible since few user applications, certainly not enough to run a viable system, are currently prepared to leverage capabilities to exercise privilege. Further, many applications exist that may never get upgraded in this way, and the kernel will continue to want to support their setuid-0 base privilege needs. Where pure-capability applications evolve and replace setuid-0 binaries, it is desirable that there be a mechanisms by which they can contain their privilege. In addition to leveraging the per-process bounding and inheritable sets, this should include suppressing the privilege of the uid-0 superuser from the process' tree of children. The feature added by this patch can be leveraged to suppress the privilege associated with (set)uid-0. This suppression requires CAP_SETPCAP to initiate, and only immediately affects the 'current' process (it is inherited through fork()/exec()). This reimplementation differs significantly from the historical support for securebits which was system-wide, unwieldy and which has ultimately withered to a dead relic in the source of the modern kernel. With this patch applied a process, that is capable(CAP_SETPCAP), can now drop all legacy privilege (through uid=0) for itself and all subsequently fork()'d/exec()'d children with: prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, 0x2f); This patch represents a no-op unless CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES is enabled at configure time.

Don't perform kobjsize operations on objects the kernel doesn't manage. On Blackfin, drivers can get dma coherent memory by calling a function dma_alloc_coherent(). We do this in nommu by configuring a chunk of uncached memory at the top of memory. Since we don't want the kernel to use the uncached memory, we lie to the kernel, and tell it that it's max memory is between 0, and the start of the uncached dma coherent section. this all works well, until this memory gets exposed into userspace (with a frame buffer), when you look at the process's maps, it shows the framebuf: root:/proc> cat maps [snip] 03f0ef00-03f34700 rw-p 00000000 1f:00 192 /dev/fb0 root:/proc> This is outside the "normal" range for the kernel. When the kernel tries to find the size of this object (when you run ps), it dies in nommu.c in kobjsize. BUG_ON(page->index >= MAX_ORDER); since the page we are referring to is outside what the kernel thinks is it's max valid memory. root:~> while [ 1 ]; ps > /dev/null; done kernel BUG at mm/nommu.c:119! Kernel panic - not syncing: BUG! We fixed this by adding a check to reject out of range object pointers as it already does that for NULL pointers.

We've found that it can take quite a bit of time (100's of usec) to get through the zone loop in refresh_cpu_vm_stats(). Adding a cond_resched() to allow other threads to run in the non-preemptive case.

This hack, "base = MAX_NR_ZONES", at __GFP_THISNODE was used for old zonliests. Now, new zonelist[] have a list for __GFP_THISNODE and this hack is incorrect. Should be removed.
