Ian Campbell d847471d06 fbdefio: add set_page_dirty handler to deferred IO FB
Fixes kernel BUG at lib/radix-tree.c:473.

Previously the handler was incidentally provided by tmpfs but this was
removed with:

    tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode

relying on this behaviour was incorrect in any case and the BUG also
appeared when the device node was on an ext3 filesystem.

v2: override a_ops at open() time rather than mmap() time to minimise
races per AKPM's concerns.

Nick Piggin 479db0bf40 mm: dirty page tracking race fix
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
be accounted for.

clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.

page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
write protects the pte if it was dirty.  It uses page_check_address to
find the pte.  That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
not present.  Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
be dirty.

For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
before setting it to the desired value.  There may also be other code in
core mm or in arch which do similar things.

The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
loss of dirty page accounting accuracy.  XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
lead to data corruption.

Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
page_check_address.

It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
try_to_unmap.

Ken Chen 2d70b68d42 fix setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) thread iterator breakage
When user calls sys_setpriority(PRIO_PGRP ...) on a NPTL style multi-LWP
process, only the task leader of the process is affected, all other
sibling LWP threads didn't receive the setting.  The problem was that the
iterator used in sys_setpriority() only iteartes over one task for each
process, ignoring all other sibling thread.

Introduce a new macro do_each_pid_thread / while_each_pid_thread to walk
each thread of a process.  Convert 4 call sites in {set/get}priority and
ioprio_{set/get}.

David Woodhouse 1c8e40e406 Reduce brokenness of CRIS headers_install
I won't say 'fix', because they still look broken, although this will at
least allow 'make ARCH=CRIS headers_install' to _complete_.

For headers which are exported, we should probably choose between
asm/arch-v10 and asm/arch-v32 by something that GCC defines -- we can't
rely on a generated symlink. And we certainly can't export an arch/
directory which doesn't even exist.

And the only thing that we seem to include from the arch/ directory is
<asm/arch/ptrace.h> from <asm/ptrace.h> ... and that isn't exported in
either arch-v10 or arch-v32 _anyway_.

Marcin Slusarz c6a92a2501 x86, percpu: silence section mismatch warnings related to EARLY_PER_CPU variables
Quoting Mike Travis in "x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4"
(23ca4bba3e):

    The DEFINE macro defines the per_cpu variable as well as the early
    map and pointer.  It also initializes the per_cpu variable and map
    elements to "_initvalue".  The early_* macros provide access to
    the initial map (usually setup during system init) and the early
    pointer.  This pointer is initialized to point to the early map
    but is then NULL'ed when the actual per_cpu areas are setup.  After
    that the per_cpu variable is the correct access to the variable.

As these variables are NULL'ed before __init sections are dropped
(in setup_per_cpu_maps), they can be safely annotated as __ref.

This change silences following section mismatch warnings:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x46c0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_ptr to the variable .init.data:x86_cpu_to_apicid_early_map

Mathieu Desnoyers 3c3b5c3b0b x86: correct register constraints for 64-bit atomic operations
x86_64 add/sub atomic ops does not seems to accept integer values bigger
than 32 bits as immediates. Intel's add/sub documentation specifies they
have to be passed as registers.

The only operations in the x86-64 architecture which accept arbitrary
64-bit immediates is "movq" to any register; similarly, the only
operation which accept arbitrary 64-bit displacement is "movabs" to or
from al/ax/eax/rax.

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.0/gcc/Machine-Constraints.html

states :

e
    32-bit signed integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to fit
    that range (for immediate operands in sign-extending x86-64
    instructions).
Z
    32-bit unsigned integer constant, or a symbolic reference known to
    fit that range (for immediate operands in zero-extending x86-64
    instructions).

Since add/sub does sign extension, using the "e" constraint seems appropriate.

It applies to 2.6.27-rc, 2.6.26, 2.6.25...

dev_deactivate() polls the qdisc after setting the bit, waiting

David Woodhouse 5e6b83ed8c Fix header export of videodev2.h, ivtv.h, ivtvfb.h
The exported copy of videodev2.h contains this line:

	#define #include <sys/time.h>

This is because for some reason it defines __user for itself -- despite
the fact that we remove all instances of __user when exporting headers.
_All_ pointers in userspace are user pointers. Fix it by removing the
unnecessary '#define __user' from the file.

The new headers ivtv.h and ivtvfb.h would have the same problem... if
whoever put them there had actually remembered to add them to the Kbuild
file while he was at it. Fix those too, and export them as was
presumably intended.

Note that includes of <linux/compiler.h> are also stripped by the header
export process, so those don't need to be conditional.

Rusty Russell db543c1f97 net: skb_copy_datagram_from_iovec()
There's an skb_copy_datagram_iovec() to copy out of a paged skb, but
nothing the other way around (because we don't do that).

We want to allocate big skbs in tun.c, so let's add the function.
It's a carbon copy of skb_copy_datagram_iovec() with enough changes to
be annoying.

Mark McLoughlin e3b9955697 tun: TUNGETIFF interface to query name and flags
Add a TUNGETIFF interface so that userspace can query a
tun/tap descriptor for its name and flags.

This is needed because it is common for one app to create
a tap interface, exec another app and pass it the file
descriptor for the interface. Without TUNGETIFF the spawned
app has no way of detecting wheter the interface has e.g.
IFF_VNET_HDR set.

Ingo Molnar cd98a04a59 x86: add MAP_STACK mmap flag
as per this discussion:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/423

Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the
combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because
glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is
a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model
64-bit P4 CPUs.

So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain
64-bit apps like this.

glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored
by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for
it can be implemented.

Adds a simple IRQ autodetection to the AMD Geode MFGPT driver, and more

chosen line.  This fixes cases where MFGPT is selected as clocksource
though not producing any ticks, so the kernel simply starves during

Starting with 2.6.27-rc1 readb() et al are generated by a
build_mmio_read() macro, which generates asm() statements with
output register constraints like "=" "q", i.e. as two adjacent
string literals. This doesn't work with gcc-3.2.3.

Fixed by moving the "=" part into the callers' reg parameter
(as suggested by Ingo).

Build and boot-tested with gcc-3.2.3 on 32 and 64-bit x86.
