Dummy, non-zero definitions for HPAGE_MASK and HPAGE_SIZE were added in 51c6f666 ("mm: ZAP_BLOCK causes redundant work") to avoid a divide by zero in generic kernel code. That code has since been removed, but probably should never have been added in the first place: we don't want HPAGE_SIZE to act like PAGE_SIZE for code that is working with hugepages, for example, when the dependency on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE has not been fulfilled. Because hugepage size can differ from architecture to architecture, each is required to have their own definitions for both HPAGE_MASK and HPAGE_SIZE. This is always done in arch/*/include/asm/page.h. So, just remove the dummy and dangerous definitions since they are no longer needed and reveals the correct dependencies. Tested on architectures using the definitions with allyesconfig: x86 (even with thp), hppa, mips, powerpc, s390, sh3, sh4, sparc, and sparc64, and with defconfig on ia64.

I will no longer be maintaining XFS for SGI. Ben Myers (bpm@sgi.com) has agreed to be the primary maintainer for XFS in my place. I will continue to be able to push commits to the SGI XFS tree if required. As such I will continue to be a designated XFS maintainer, but plan to serve in more of a backup role.

On PPC64, put_sigset_t converts a sigset_t to a compat_sigset_t before copying it to userspace. There is a typo in the case that we have 4 words to copy, meaning that we corrupt the compat_sigset_t. It appears that _NSIG_WORDS can't be greater than 2 at the moment so this code is probably always optimised away anyway.

The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt document requires that atomic operations that return a value act as a memory barrier both before and after the actual atomic operation. Our current implementation doesn't guarantee this. More specifically, while a load following the isync can not be issued before stwcx. has completed, that completion doesn't architecturally means that the result of stwcx. is visible to other processors (or any previous stores for that matter) (typically, the other processors L1 caches can still hold the old value). This has caused an actual crash in RCU torture testing on Power 7 This fixes it by changing those atomic ops to use new macros instead of RELEASE/ACQUIRE barriers, called ATOMIC_ENTRY and ATMOIC_EXIT barriers, which are then defined respectively to lwsync and sync. I haven't had a chance to measure the performance impact (or rather what I measured with kernel compiles is in the noise, I yet have to find a more precise benchmark) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Paul E.

Kyle Moffett authored
Recent binutils refuses to assemble AltiVec opcodes when in e500/SPE mode, as some of those opcodes alias the "SPE" instructions. This triggers an ancient binutils version check even when building a kernel with CONFIG_ALTIVEC disabled. In theory, the check could be conditionalized on CONFIG_ALTIVEC, but in practice it has long outlived its utility. It is virtually impossible to find binutils older than 2.12.1 (released 2002) in the wild anymore. Even ancient RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 has binutils-2.14. To fix the kernel build when done natively on e500 systems with this new binutils, the test is simply removed.

With the introduction of CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS user space debug is broken on Book-E 64-bit parts that support delayed debug events. When switch_booke_debug_regs() sets DBCR0 we'll start getting debug events as MSR_DE is also set and we aren't able to handle debug events from kernel space. We can remove the hack that always enables MSR_DE and loads up DBCR0 and just utilize switch_booke_debug_regs() to get user space debug working again. We still need to handle critical/debug exception stacks & proper save/restore of state for those exception levles to support debug events from kernel space like we have on 32-bit.

We had an existing ifdef for 4xx & BOOKE processors that got changed to CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS. The define has nothing to do with CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS.

takes vfsmount and relative path, does lookup within that vfsmount (possibly triggering automounts) and returns the result as root of subtree suitable for return by ->mount() (i.e. a reference to dentry and an active reference to its superblock grabbed, superblock locked exclusive). btrfs and nfs switched to it instead of open-coding the sucker.

Encrypted keys are encrypted/decrypted using either a trusted or user-defined key type, which is referred to as the 'master' key. The master key may be of type trusted iff the trusted key is builtin or both the trusted key and encrypted keys are built as modules. This patch resolves the build dependency problem. - Use "masterkey-$(CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS)-$(CONFIG_ENCRYPTED_KEYS)" construct to encapsulate the above logic. (Suggested by Dimtry Kasatkin.) - Fixing the encrypted-keys Makefile, results in a module name change from encrypted.ko to encrypted-keys.ko. - Add module dependency for request_trusted_key() definition Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com>

gref->gref_id is unsigned so the error handling didn't work. gnttab_grant_foreign_access() returns an int type, so we can add a cast here, and it doesn't cause any problems. gnttab_grant_foreign_access() can return a variety of errors including -ENOSPC, -ENOSYS and -ENOMEM.

On 32 bit systems a high value of op.count could lead to an integer overflow in the kzalloc() and gref_ids would be smaller than expected. If the you triggered another integer overflow in "if (gref_size + op.count > limit)" then you'd probably get memory corruption inside add_grefs().
