      [PATCH] memory writeback/invalidation fixes · b2dd8674
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: "David S. Miller" <davem@redhat.com>
      
      This attempts to take care of 2 of the MM todos I had on
      my backlog:
      
      1) Zap the stupid flush_cache_all() thing with more meaningful
         interfaces.
      
      2) Resolve the ptrace user page access issues, first stage.
      
      The "first stage" mentioned for #2 is simply creating the
      user page accesor interfaces.  The next stage needs to be
      mucking with get_user_pages() so that we can control when
      the flush_dcache_page() occurs.  Then we:
      
      1) For every platform where flush_dcache_page() is a non-nop
         add a call to the beginning of copy_{from,to}_user_page().
      2) Make access_process_vm() set the "no dcache flush" bit in
         it's call to get_user_pages().
      
      The idea also was that we'd consolidate the write etc. boolean
      args passed to get_user_pages() into flag bits too.
      
      But at least with the below, we can delete that reminder FIXME
      comment from kernel/ptrace.c, the platforms have the necessary
      tools and just need to make use of it :)
      
      As a bonus I noticed that VMALLOC_VMADDR() did absolutely nothing.
      
      After all of this I only have 1 real TODO left, and that's dealing
      with the SMP TLB/pte invalidation stuff, very low priority until
      someone starts doing more work with sparc32/SMP in 2.6.x :)

      v2.4.3.2 -> v2.4.3.3 · 1a015350
      Linus Torvalds authored
        - Hui-Fen Hsu: sis900 driver update
        - NIIBE Yutaka: Super-H update
        - Alan Cox: more resyncs (ARM down, but more to go)
        - David Miller: network zerocopy, Sparc sync, qlogic,FC fix, etc.
        - David Miller/me: get rid of various drivers hacks to do mmap
        alignment behind the back of the VM layer. Create a real
        protocol for it.
