* Remove fs.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan2007-07-291-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove fs.h from mm.h. For this, 1) Uninline vma_wants_writenotify(). It's pretty huge anyway. 2) Add back fs.h or less bloated headers (err.h) to files that need it. As result, on x86_64 allyesconfig, fs.h dependencies cut down from 3929 files rebuilt down to 3444 (-12.3%).

* [PATCH] i386: Make COMPAT_VDSO runtime selectable.Jeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-021-51/+94
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that relocation of the VDSO for COMPAT_VDSO users is done at runtime rather than compile time, it is possible to enable/disable compat mode at runtime. This patch allows you to enable COMPAT_VDSO mode with "vdso=2" on the kernel command line, or via sysctl. (Switching on a running system shouldn't be done lightly; any process which was relying on the compat VDSO will be upset if it goes away.) The COMPAT_VDSO config option still exists, but if enabled it just makes vdso_enabled default to VDSO_COMPAT. +From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Fix oops from i386-make-compat_vdso-runtime-selectable.patch. Even mingetty at system startup finds it easy to trigger an oops while reading /proc/PID/maps: though it has a good hold on the mm itself, that cannot stop exit_mm() from resetting tsk->mm to NULL. (It is usually show_map()'s call to get_gate_vma() which oopses, and I expect we could change that to check priv->tail_vma instead; but no matter, even m_start()'s call just after get_task_mm() is racy.)

* [PATCH] i386: Relocate VDSO ELF headers to match mapped location with ↵Jeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-021-9/+149
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | COMPAT_VDSO Some versions of libc can't deal with a VDSO which doesn't have its ELF headers matching its mapped address. COMPAT_VDSO maps the VDSO at a specific system-wide fixed address. Previously this was all done at build time, on the grounds that the fixed VDSO address is always at the top of the address space. However, a hypervisor may reserve some of that address space, pushing the fixmap address down. This patch does the adjustment dynamically at runtime, depending on the runtime location of the VDSO fixmap. [ Patch has been through several hands: Jan Beulich wrote the orignal version; Zach reworked it, and Jeremy converted it to relocate phdrs as well as sections. ] Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Zachary Amsden <zach@vmware.com> Cc: "Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@novell.com> Cc: Eric W.

* [PATCH] i386: clean up identify_cpuJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | identify_cpu() is used to identify both the boot CPU and secondary CPUs, but it performs some actions which only apply to the boot CPU. Those functions are therefore really __init functions, but because they're called by identify_cpu(), they must be marked __cpuinit. This patch splits identify_cpu() into identify_boot_cpu() and identify_secondary_cpu(), and calls the appropriate init functions from each. Also, identify_boot_cpu() and all the functions it dominates are marked __init. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

* [PATCH] i386: Fix broken CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO on i386Jan Beulich2007-02-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After updating several machines to 2.6.20, I can't boot anymore the single one of them that supports the NX bit and is configured as a 32-bit system. My understanding is that the VDSO changes in 2.6.20-rc7 were not fully cooked, in that with that config option enabled VDSO_SYM(x) now equals x, meaning that an address in the fixmap area is now being passed to apps via AT_SYSINFO. However, the page is mapped with PAGE_READONLY rather than PAGE_READONLY_EXEC. I'm not certain whether having app code go through the fixmap area is intended, but in case it is here is the simple patch that makes things work again.

* [PATCH] i386 vDSO: use VM_ALWAYSDUMPRoland McGrath2007-01-261-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes core dumps to include the vDSO vma, which is left out now. It removes the special-case core writing macros, which were not doing the right thing for the vDSO vma anyway. Instead, it uses VM_ALWAYSDUMP in the vma; there is no need for the fixmap page to be installed. It handles the CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO case by making elf_core_dump use the fake vma from get_gate_vma after real vmas in the same way the /proc/PID/maps code does. This changes core dumps so they no longer include the non-PT_LOAD phdrs from the vDSO. I made the change to add them in the first place, but in turned out that nothing ever wanted them there since the advent of NT_AUXV. It's cleaner to leave them out, and just let the phdrs inside the vDSO image speak for themselves.

* [PATCH] Fix CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSORoland McGrath2007-01-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I wouldn't mind if CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO went away entirely. But if it's there, it should work properly. Currently it's quite haphazard: both real vma and fixmap are mapped, both are put in the two different AT_* slots, sysenter returns to the vma address rather than the fixmap address, and core dumps yet are another story. This patch makes CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO disable the real vma and use the fixmap area consistently. This makes it actually compatible with what the old vdso implementation did.

* [PATCH] vdso: randomize the i386 vDSO by moving it into a vmaIngo Molnar2006-06-271-4/+124
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it. Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do single-stepping and other debugging features. It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the VDSO). There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore. There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned on/off. (This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.) This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell started this patch and i completed it.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
