Evgeny Stambulchik found that doing the following always worked: # mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy/ mount: block device /dev/fd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only # mount -o remount,rw /mnt/floppy # echo $? 0 This is the case because the block device /dev/fd0 is writeable but the floppy disk is marked protected. A fix is to simply have floppy_open mark the underlying gendisk policy according to reality (since the VFS doesn't provide a way for do_remount_sb to inquire as to the current device status).

This patch makes only the functions in swsusp.c call functions in snapshot.c and not both ways. It also moves the check for available swap out of swsusp_suspend() which is necessary for separating the swap-handling functions in swsusp from the core code. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

The changes made by this patch are necessary for the pagedir relocation simplification in the next patch. Additionally, these changes allow us to drop check_pagedir() and make get_safe_page() be a one-line wrapper around alloc_image_page() (get_safe_page() goes to snapshot.c, because alloc_image_page() is static and it does not make sense to export it).

MPC834x uses the gianfar network driver which now uses the new phylib. We need to update the platform code to create a gianfar platform MDIO bus and pass the right intializations to the gianfar driver to make things work again.

This patch disables the setting of SELinux xattrs on files created in filesystems labeled via mountpoint labeling (mounted with the context= option). selinux_inode_setxattr already prevents explicit setxattr from userspace on such filesystems, so this provides consistent behavior for file creation.

When calling target drivers to set frequency, we take cpucontrol lock. When we modified the code to accomodate CPU hotplug, there was an attempt to take a double lock of cpucontrol leading to a deadlock. Since the current thread context is already holding the cpucontrol lock, we dont need to make another attempt to acquire it. Now we leave a trace in current->flags indicating current thread already is under cpucontrol lock held, so we dont attempt to do this another time. Thanks to Andrew Morton for the beating:-) From: Brice Goglin <Brice.Goglin@ens-lyon.org> Build fix (akpm: this patch is still unpleasant.

You could open the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<if>/<whatever> file, then wait for interface to go away, try to grab as much memory as possible in hope to hit the (kfreed) ctl_table. Then fill it with pointers to your function. Then do read from file you've opened and if you are lucky, you'll get it called as ->proc_handler() in kernel mode. So this is at least an Oops and possibly more. It does depend on an interface going away though, so less of a security risk than it would otherwise be.

Oleg Nesterov authored
When non-leader thread does exec, de_thread calls release_task(leader) before calling exit_itimers(). If local timer interrupt happens in between, it can oops in send_group_sigqueue() while taking ->sighand->siglock == NULL. However, we can't change send_group_sigqueue() to check p->signal != NULL, because sys_timer_create() does get_task_struct() only in SIGEV_THREAD_ID case. So it is possible that this task_struct was already freed and we can't trust p->signal. This patch changes de_thread() so that leader released after exit_itimers() call.

Patch from Richard Purdie The Sharp SL-Cxx00 models have a combined power control for the SD and CF slot 0. This patch adds hooks to the scoop driver to allow machines to provide a custom control function for this and such a function is added for spitz/akita/borzoi. It also moves the gpio init code into the machine files as this is machine dependent and differs between some models. A couple of warnings when compiling for collie are also fixed.
