2009-12-10asm-generic: add sys_accept4 to unistd.hArnd Bergmann

2009-12-10vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semanticsChristoph Hellwig
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems, since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to vfs_fsync_range and when not. This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers. This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe. We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path to make sure we always get these sane options. Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

pages Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So, this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from the dcache or with dcache aliases.

2009-11-17fcntl: rename F_OWNER_GID to F_OWNER_PGRPPeter Zijlstra
This is for consistency with various ioctl() operations that include the suffix "PGRP" in their names, and also for consistency with PRIO_PGRP, used with setpriority() and getpriority(). Also, using PGRP instead of GID avoids confusion with the common abbreviation of "group ID". I'm fine with anything that makes it more consistent, and if PGRP is what is the predominant abbreviation then I see no need to further confuse matters by adding a third one.

2009-10-12net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsgNeil Horman
Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames. This value was exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg. AFter I completed that work it was requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket could make use of this option. As such I've created this patch, It creates a new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue overflowed between any two given frames. It also augments the AF_PACKET protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count). Tested successfully by me. Notes: 1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops. Deltas must be computed in user space. 2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero, and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me. This also saves us having to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism. 3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit 977750076d98c7ff6cbda51858bb5a5894a9d9ab (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Since the beginnings in aafe4dbed0bf6cbdb2e9f03e1d42f8a540d8541d ("asm-generic: add generic versions of common headers") the generic version of <asm/hardirq.h> defined __softirq_pending as unsigned long. Which is different from other architectures for no apparent good reason and was causing the following warning: kernel/time/tick-sched.c: In function 'tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick': kernel/time/tick-sched.c:261: warning: format '%02x' expects type 'unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'long unsigned int' Reported and initial patch by Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com>.

2009-09-24fcntl: add F_[SG]ETOWN_EXPeter Zijlstra
In order to direct the SIGIO signal to a particular thread of a multi-threaded application we cannot, like suggested by the manpage, put a TID into the regular fcntl(F_SETOWN) call. It will still be send to the whole process of which that thread is part. Since people do want to properly direct SIGIO we introduce F_SETOWN_EX. The need to direct SIGIO comes from self-monitoring profiling such as with perf-counters. Perf-counters uses SIGIO to notify that new sample data is available. If the signal is delivered to the same task that generated the new sample it can augment that data by inspecting the task's user-space state right after it returns from the kernel. This is esp. convenient for interpreted or virtual machine driven environments. Both F_SETOWN_EX and F_GETOWN_EX take a pointer to a struct f_owner_ex as argument: struct f_owner_ex { int type; pid_t pid; }; Where type is one of F_OWNER_TID, F_OWNER_PID or F_OWNER_GID.

Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that will look like anonymous memory to user space. This is accomplished by using a file on the internal vfsmount. MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it. The region will behave the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages. The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only on some architectures but not on others.

2009-09-21perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

2009-09-16HWPOISON: Add madvise() based injector for hardware poisoned pages v4Andi Kleen
Impact: optional, useful for debugging Add a new madvice sub command to inject poison for some pages in a process' address space. This is useful for testing the poison page handling. This patch can allow root to tie up large amounts of memory. I got feedback from container developers and they didn't see any problem. v2: Use write flag for get_user_pages to make sure to always get a fresh page v3: Don't request write mapping (Fengguang Wu) v4: Move MADV_* number to avoid conflict with KSM (Hugh Dickins) Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
2009-09-16HWPOISON: Add new SIGBUS error codes for hardware poison signalsAndi Kleen
Add new SIGBUS codes for reporting machine checks as signals. When the hardware detects an uncorrected ECC error it can trigger these signals. This is needed for telling KVM's qemu about machine checks that happen to guests, so that it can inject them, but might be also useful for other programs. I find it useful in my test programs. This patch merely defines the new types. - Define two new si_codes for SIGBUS. BUS_MCEERR_AO and BUS_MCEERR_AR * BUS_MCEERR_AO is for "Action Optional" machine checks, which means that some corruption has been detected in the background, but nothing has been consumed so far. The program can ignore those if it wants (but most programs would already get killed) * BUS_MCEERR_AR is for "Action Required" machine checks. This happens when corrupted data is consumed or the application ran into an area which has been known to be corrupted earlier. These require immediate action and cannot just returned to. Most programs would kill themselves. - They report the address of the corruption in the user address space in si_addr. - Define a new si_addr_lsb field that reports the extent of the corruption to user space. That's currently always a (small) page. The user application cannot tell where in this page the corruption happened. AK: I plan to write a man page update before anyone asks.

2009-09-12ftrace: __start_mcount_loc should be .init.rodataJohn Reiser
__start_mcount_loc[] is unused after init, yet occupies RAM forever as part of .rodata. 152kiB is typical on a 64-bit architecture. Instead, __start_mcount_loc should be in the interval [__init_begin, __init_end) so that the space is reclaimed after init. __start_mcount_loc[] is generated during the load portion of kernel build, and is used only by ftrace_init(). ftrace_init is declared '__init' and is in .init.text, which is freed after init. __start_mcount_loc is placed into .rodata by a call to MCOUNT_REC inside the RO_DATA macro of include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h. The array *is* read-only, but more importantly it is not used after init. So the call to MCOUNT_REC should be moved from RO_DATA to INIT_DATA. This patch has been tested on x86_64 with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y which verifies that the address range never is accessed after init.

This moves flush_write_buffers() in asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h to arch/x86/kernel/pci-nommu.c. The purpose of this patch is that, we can avoid defining NULL flush_write_buffers() on IA64 and SPARC. dma-mapping-common.h is used by X86 and IA64 (and SPARC soon) but only X86 with CONFIG_X86_OOSTORE or CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE actually uses flush_write_buffers(). CONFIG_X86_OOSTORE or CONFIG_X86_PPRO_FENCE is usable with only kernel/pci-nommu.c (that is, not usable with other X86 IOMMU implementations such as SWIOTLB, VT-d, etc) so we can safely move flush_write_buffers() in asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h to arch/x86/kernel/pci-nommu.c.

2009-08-05net: implement a SO_DOMAIN getsockoptionJan Engelhardt
This sockopt goes in line with SO_TYPE and SO_PROTOCOL. It makes it possible for userspace programs to pass around file descriptors — I am referring to arguments-to-functions, but it may even work for the fd passing over UNIX sockets — without needing to also pass the auxiliary information (PF_INET6/IPPROTO_TCP).

2009-08-05net: implement a SO_PROTOCOL getsockoptionJan Engelhardt
Similar to SO_TYPE returning the socket type, SO_PROTOCOL allows to retrieve the protocol used with a given socket. I am not quite sure why we have that-many copies of socket.h, and why the values are not the same on all arches either, but for where hex numbers dominate, I use 0x1029 for SO_PROTOCOL as that seems to be the next free unused number across a bunch of operating systems, or so Google results make me want to believe. SO_PROTOCOL for others just uses the next free Linux number, 38. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
