2009-06-12module: cleanup FIXME comments about trimming exception table entries.Rusty Russell

2009-06-12module: trim exception table on init free.Rusty Russell
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.

2009-04-22sparc: Fix bus type probing for ESP and LE devices.David S. Miller
If there is a dummy "espdma" or "ledma" parent device above ESP scsi or LE ethernet device nodes, we have to match the bus as SBUS. Otherwise the address and size cell counts are wrong and we don't calculate the final physical device resource values correctly at all. Commit 5280267c1dddb8d413595b87dc406624bb497946 ("sparc: Fix handling of LANCE and ESP parent nodes in of_device.c") was meant to fix this problem, but that only influences the inner loop of build_device_resources(). We need this logic to also kick in at the beginning of build_device_resources() as well, when we make the first attempt to determine the device's immediate parent bus type for 'reg' property element extraction.

2009-04-01generic debug pageallocAkinobu Mita
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is now supported by x86, powerpc, sparc64, and s390. This patch implements it for the rest of the architectures by filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages(). This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.

2009-03-31proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::ownerAlexey Dobriyan
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it.
