Since get_user_pages() may be used with processes other than the
current process and calls flush_anon_page(), flush_anon_page() has to
cope in some way with non-current processes.
It may not be appropriate, or even desirable to flush a region of
virtual memory cache in the current process when that is different to
the process that we want the flush to occur for.
Therefore, pass the vma into flush_anon_page() so that the architecture
can work out whether the 'vmaddr' is for the current process or not.

Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking. This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need
to separate the kernel and user termios structures. Glibc is fine but the
other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to
extend this without breaking the ABI/API
To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios
structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for
now. (That limitation will go away in later patches). Some platforms (eg
alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not.
This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible
splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect
them)

Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()
dma_cache_sync() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct device
pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist of a
mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard. Change dma_cache_sync
to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix all its callers

Introduce pagefault_{disable,enable}() and use these where previously we did
manual preempt increments/decrements to make the pagefault handler do the
atomic thing.
Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on
the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future.
(NOTE: the extra barrier() in pagefault_disable might fix some holes on
machines which have too many registers for their own good)

Use the __raw_spin_lock_flags routine so we can take an interrupt while
spinning. This re-fixes a bug jejb found on 2005-10-20:
CPU0 does a flush_tlb_all holding the vmlist_lock for write.
CPU1 tries a cat of /proc/meminfo which tries to acquire vmlist_lock for read
CPU1 is now spinning with interrupts disabled
CPU0 tries to execute a smp_call_function to flush the local tlb caches
This is now a deadlock because CPU1 is spinning with interrupts disabled and
can never receive the IPI

This patch fixes the pa8800 at a gross level (there are still other
subtle incoherency issues which can still cause crashes and HPMCs).
What it does is try to force eject inequivalent aliases before they
become visible to the L2 cache (which is where we get the incoherence
problems).
A new function (parisc_requires_coherency) is introduced in
asm/processor.h to identify the pa8x00 processors (8800 and 8900)
which have the issue.

asm/processor.h on parisc wants spinlocks for cpuinfo, but
linux/spinlock_types.h needs lockdep, and lockdep wants prefetch.
This leads to a horrible circular dependancy, because <asm/processor.h>
is including something which depends on things which are not defined
until the end of the file.
Kludge around this by moving prefetch related code into <asm/prefetch.h>
and including it before <linux/spinlock_types.h>, however this is just
a temporary solution until this mess can be cleaned up.

remove these right away.

On systems running with virtual cpus there is optimization potential in
regard to spinlocks and rw-locks. If the virtual cpu that has taken a lock
is known to a cpu that wants to acquire the same lock it is beneficial to
yield the timeslice of the virtual cpu in favour of the cpu that has the
lock (directed yield).
With CONFIG_PREEMPT="n" this can be implemented by the architecture without
common code changes. Powerpc already does this.
With CONFIG_PREEMPT="y" the lock loops are coded with _raw_spin_trylock,
_raw_read_trylock and _raw_write_trylock in kernel/spinlock.c. If the lock
could not be taken cpu_relax is called. A directed yield is not possible
because cpu_relax doesn't know anything about the lock. To be able to
yield the lock in favour of the current lock holder variants of cpu_relax
for spinlocks and rw-locks are needed. The new _raw_spin_relax,
_raw_read_relax and _raw_write_relax primitives differ from cpu_relax
insofar that they have an argument: a pointer to the lock structure.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.
Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

set_wmb should not be used in the kernel because it just confuses the

while(0) except ia64 and sparc which use a mb() instead. But this is

This patch implements an API whereby an application can determine the
label of its peer's Unix datagram sockets via the auxiliary data mechanism of
recvmsg.
Patch purpose:
This patch enables a security-aware application to retrieve the
security context of the peer of a Unix datagram socket. The application
can then use this security context to determine the security context for
processing on behalf of the peer who sent the packet.
Patch design and implementation:
The design and implementation is very similar to the UDP case for INET
sockets. Basically we build upon the existing Unix domain socket API for
retrieving user credentials. Linux offers the API for obtaining user
credentials via ancillary messages (i.e., out of band/control messages
that are bundled together with a normal message). To retrieve the security
context, the application first indicates to the kernel such desire by
setting the SO_PASSSEC option via getsockopt. Then the application
retrieves the security context using the auxiliary data mechanism.
An example server application for Unix datagram socket should look like this:
toggle = 1;
toggle_len = sizeof(toggle);
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_PASSSEC, &toggle, &toggle_len);
recvmsg(sockfd, &msg_hdr, 0);
if (msg_hdr.msg_controllen > sizeof(struct cmsghdr)) {
cmsg_hdr = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(&msg_hdr);
if (cmsg_hdr->cmsg_len <= CMSG_LEN(sizeof(scontext)) &&
cmsg_hdr->cmsg_level == SOL_SOCKET &&
cmsg_hdr->cmsg_type == SCM_SECURITY) {
memcpy(&scontext, CMSG_DATA(cmsg_hdr), sizeof(scontext));
}
}
sock_setsockopt is enhanced with a new socket option SOCK_PASSSEC to allow
a server socket to receive security context of the peer.
Testing:
We have tested the patch by setting up Unix datagram client and server
applications. We verified that the server can retrieve the security context
using the auxiliary data mechanism of recvmsg.
