| * generic compat_sys_ustatChristoph Hellwig2009-03-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but currently only x86 and mips provide one. Add a generic compat_sys_ustat and switch all architectures over to it. Instead of doing various user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as it's trivial. This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann. Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of data writen by the syscall.

It really genuinely is a bug that probably should panic the kernel. The only precedent I can easily see is x86 fixing up a bad iret with a general protection fault, which is more or less analogous to code 27 here. On the other hand, taking the exception on a userspace access really isn't all that critical, and there's fundamentally little reason for the kernel not to SIGSEGV the process, and continue... Argh.

This patch fixes this by adding the MODALIAS environment variable to the uevent kernel notifications. Since modalias_show() generated the modalias string already, I splitted this out and created a new static function make_modalias() which is now used by modalias_show() and the new parisc_uevent() function.

* | parisc: fix module loading failure of large kernel modulesHelge Deller2009-01-051-81/+135
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On 32bit (and sometimes 64bit) and with big kernel modules like xfs or ipv6 the relocation types R_PARISC_PCREL17F and R_PARISC_PCREL22F may fail to reach their PLT stub if we only create one big stub array for all sections at the beginning of the core or init section. With this patch we now instead add individual PLT stub entries directly in front of the code sections where the stubs are actually called. This reduces the distance between the PCREL location and the stub entry so that the relocations can be fulfilled. While calculating the final layout of the kernel module in memory, the kernel module loader calls arch_mod_section_prepend() to request the to be reserved amount of memory in front of each individual section.

Move them to a central location. Twists: 1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them. 2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'. Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere. 3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky so I just manipulate them both in sync. 4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map' declarations.

The device name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device". To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev) must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the name the registered device should have. At registration time, the init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to access the device name at a later time. We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch, and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id. We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from "struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array and does no longer have a size limitation.

| * parisc: fix kernel crash when unwinding a userspace processHelge Deller2008-11-261-22/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Any user on existing parisc 32- and 64bit-kernels can easily crash the kernel and as such enforce a DSO. A simple testcase is available here: http://gsyprf10.external.hp.com/~deller/crash.tgz The problem is introduced by the fact, that the handle_interruption() crash handler calls the show_regs() function, which in turn tries to unwind the stack by calling parisc_show_stack(). Since the stack contains userspace addresses, a try to unwind the stack is dangerous and useless and leads to the crash. The fix is trivial: For userspace processes a) avoid to unwind the stack, and b) avoid to resolve userspace addresses to kernel symbol names. While touching this code, I converted print_symbol() to %pS printk formats and made parisc_show_stack() static. An initial patch for this was written by Kyle McMartin back in August: http://marc.info/?l=linux-parisc&m=121805168830283&w=2 Compile and run-tested with a 64bit parisc kernel.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory: if (addr < 0) break; Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value "sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator. Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs). This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

* | CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the PA-RISC archDavid Howells2008-11-141-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bang in our own start_parisc call, which initializes the PDC width, and turns on the FPU. Previously, if CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME was on, we'd attempt to use the FPU before we had enabled it, resulting in a difficult to diagnose panic. This patch causes init_per_cpu to redundantly set these for cpu0, but this is harmless.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These functions are called only when bringing up the monarch cpu, so it is safe to call them without taking the pdc spinlock. In the future, this may become relevant for lockdep, since these functions were taking spinlocks before start_kernel called the lockdep initializers.

* lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architecturesJames Bottomley2008-09-091-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However, the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1) parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for function descriptors Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64 and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.
