2011-01-05meta: update BSP descriptions to new KARCH/KTYPE/KMACHINE definitionsBruce Ashfield
The old WRS_ARCH, WRS_TARGET and WRS_KERNEL defines have been augumented to use KARCH, KMACHINE and KTYPE as alternatives. This change updates existing BSPs to use those new defines. Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
2011-01-04linux-yocto-2.6.37: Add debugfs and ftrace features to standard ktype meta-dataDarren Hart
ftrace provides low impact tracing facilities and should be made available on the main kernel - as opposed to a debug or tracing kernel which often add enough overhead to mask subtle bugs. These features are available on the 2.6.34 yocto kernel. Boot and trace-cmd tested on qemux86-64.

2010-12-06PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swapRafael J. Wysocki
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often. This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask. This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

2010-12-06PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation imageBojan Smojver
This is a fix for reading LZO compressed image using async I/O. Essentially, instead of having just one page into which we keep reading blocks from swap, we allocate enough of them to cover the largest compressed size and then let block I/O pick them all up. Once we have them all (and here we wait), we decompress them, as usual. Obviously, the very first block we still pick up synchronously, because we need to know the size of the lot before we pick up the rest. Also fixed the copyright line, which I've forgotten before.

2010-12-05Revert "vfs: show unreachable paths in getcwd and proc"Eric W. Biederman
Because it caused a chroot ttyname regression in 2.6.36. As of 2.6.36 ttyname does not work in a chroot. It has already been reported that screen breaks, and for me this breaks an automated distribution testsuite, that I need to preserve the ability to run the existing binaries on for several more years. glibc 2.11.3 which has a fix for this is not an option. The root cause of this breakage is: commit 8df9d1a4142311c084ffeeacb67cd34d190eff74 Author: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Date: Tue Aug 10 11:41:41 2010 +0200 vfs: show unreachable paths in getcwd and proc Prepend "(unreachable)" to path strings if the path is not reachable from the current root. Two places updated are - the return string from getcwd() - and symlinks under /proc/$PID. Other uses of d_path() are left unchanged (we know that some old software crashes if /proc/mounts is changed).

2010-12-04parisc: convert the rest of the irq handlers to simple/percpuJames Bottomley
The generic conversion eliminates the spurious no_ack and no_end routines, converts all the cascaded handlers to handle_simple_irq() and makes iosapic use a modified handle_percpu_irq() to become the same as the CPU irq's. This isn't an essential change, but it eliminates the mask/unmask overhead of handle_level_irq().

2010-12-04parisc: fix dino/gsc interruptsJames Bottomley
The essential problem we're currently having is that dino (and gsc) is a cascaded CPU interrupt. Under the old __do_IRQ() handler, our CPU interrupts basically did an ack followed by an end. In the new scheme, we replaced them with level handlers which do a mask, an ack and then an unmask (but no end). Instead, with the renaming of end to eoi, we actually want to call the percpu flow handlers, because they actually have all the characteristics we want. This patch does the conversion and gets my C360 booting again. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca>

2010-12-03UBI: fix corrupted PEB detection for NOR flashArtem Bityutskiy
My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug. We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if 1. EC header is OK. 2. VID header is corrupted. 3. data area is not "all 0xFFs" In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions, and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print scary warnings, wrongly. This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully. Thanks to Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> for tracking this down.

Allocate irq descs on any NUMA node (we don't care) rather than specifically node 0, which may not exist. (At the moment NUMA is meaningless within a domain, so any info the kernel has is just from an SRAT table we haven't suppressed/disabled.)

2010-12-02do_exit(): make sure that we run with get_fs() == USER_DSNelson Elhage
If a user manages to trigger an oops with fs set to KERNEL_DS, fs is not otherwise reset before do_exit(). do_exit may later (via mm_release in fork.c) do a put_user to a user-controlled address, potentially allowing a user to leverage an oops into a controlled write into kernel memory. This is only triggerable in the presence of another bug, but this potentially turns a lot of DoS bugs into privilege escalations, so it's worth fixing. I have proof-of-concept code which uses this bug along with CVE-2010-3849 to write a zero to an arbitrary kernel address, so I've tested that this is not theoretical. A more logical place to put this fix might be when we know an oops has occurred, before we call do_exit(), but that would involve changing every architecture, in multiple places. Let's just stick it in do_exit instead.
