135ab6ec8f [PATCH] remove remaining errno and __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ references
The last in-kernel user of errno is gone, so we should remove the definition
and everything referring to it.  This also removes the now-unused lib/execve.c
file that was introduced earlier.

Also remove every trace of __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ that still remained in the
kernel.

ef6edc9746 [PATCH] Directed yield: cpu_relax variants for spinlocks and rw-locks
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.

46a82b2d55 [PATCH] Standardize pxx_page macros
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.

3a45975681 [PATCH] IA64,sparc: local DoS with corrupted ELFs
This prevents cross-region mappings on IA64 and SPARC which could lead
to system crash.  They were correctly trapped for normal mmap() calls,
but not for the kernel internal calls generated by executable loading.

This code just moves the architecture-specific cross-region checks into
an arch-specific "arch_mmap_check()" macro, and defines that for the
architectures that needed it (ia64, sparc and sparc64).

Architectures that don't have any special requirements can just ignore
the new cross-region check, since the mmap() code will just notice on
its own when the macro isn't defined.

2ec7df0457 [PATCH] libata: rework legacy handling to remove much of the cruft
Kill host_set->next
Fix simplex support
Allow per platform setting of IDE legacy bases

Some of this can be tidied further later on, in particular all the
legacy port gunge belongs as a PCI quirk/PCI header decode to understand
the special legacy IDE rules in the PCI spec.

Longer term Jeff also wants to move the request_irq/free_irq out of core
which will make this even cleaner.

tj: folded in three followup patches - ata_piix-fix, broken-arch-fix
and fix-new-legacy-handling, and separated per-dev xfermask into
separate patch preceding this one.  Folded in fixes are...

* ata_piix-fix: fix build failure due to host_set->next removal
* broken-arch-fix: add missing include/asm-*/libata-portmap.h
* fix-new-legacy-handling:
	* In ata_pci_init_legacy_port(), probe_num was incorrectly
          incremented during initialization of the secondary port and
          probe_ent->n_ports was incorrectly fixed to 1.

	* Both legacy ports ended up having the same hard_port_no.

	* When printing port information, both legacy ports printed
	  the first irq.

46ba6d7d8b [SPARC64]: Fix more of_device layer IRQ bugs, and correct PROMREG_MAX.
Sabre and Psycho PCI controllers can have partial interrupt-map
properties, meaning that on-board devices don't match up to any
entries.  Instead, they are fully specified from the beginning and
we should pass them directly to the IRQ translator as-is.

Also, fill in the necessary translator slots for the "graphics"
and "expansion UPA" interrupts on Sabre, Psycho, and SYSIO SBUS.

Increase PROMREG_MAX to 24, as seen on SUNW,ffb devices.

Finally, prevent accidentally writing past the end of the of_device
struct resource[] and irqs[] arrays.  Spit out a log message when
we ignore some entries because there are too many of them.

877ce7c1b3 [AF_UNIX]: Datagram getpeersec
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.

2b1e597871 [SPARC64]: of_device layer IRQ resolution
Do IRQ determination generically by parsing the PROM properties,
and using IRQ controller drivers for final resolution.

One immediate positive effect is that all of the IRQ frobbing
in the EBUS, ISA, and PCI controller layers has been eliminated.
We just look up the of_device and use the properly computed
value.

The PCI controller irq_build() routines are gone and no longer
used.  Unfortunately sbus_build_irq() has to remain as there is
a direct reference to this in the sunzilog driver.  That can be
killed off once the sparc32 side of this is written and the
sunzilog driver is transformed into an "of" bus driver.

cpu power will be determined for different domains.  When power savings
policy is enabled and under light load conditions, scheduler will minimize
the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving
power(with a perf impact based on the workload characteristics...  see OLS

e6f47f978b [PATCH] Notify page fault call chain
With this patch Kprobes now registers for page fault notifications only when
their is an active probe registered.  Once all the active probes are
unregistered their is no need to be notified of page faults and kprobes
unregisters itself from the page fault notifications.  Hence we will have ZERO
side effects when no probes are active.

d98f8f0518 [PATCH] Notify page fault call chain for sparc64
Overloading of page fault notification with the notify_die() has performance
issues(since the only interested components for page fault is kprobes and/or
kdb) and hence this patch introduces the new notifier call chain exclusively
for page fault notifications their by avoiding notifying unnecessary
components in the do_page_fault() code path.

bfe5d83419 [PATCH] Define __raw_get_cpu_var and use it
There are several instances of per_cpu(foo, raw_smp_processor_id()), which
is semantically equivalent to __get_cpu_var(foo) but without the warning
that smp_processor_id() can give if CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled.  For
those architectures with optimized per-cpu implementations, namely ia64,
powerpc, s390, sparc64 and x86_64, per_cpu() turns into more and slower
code than __get_cpu_var(), so it would be preferable to use __get_cpu_var
on those platforms.

This defines a __raw_get_cpu_var(x) macro which turns into per_cpu(x,
raw_smp_processor_id()) on architectures that use the generic per-cpu
implementation, and turns into __get_cpu_var(x) on the architectures that
have an optimized per-cpu implementation.

Sparcspkr and power drivers are converted, to make sure it works.
Eventually the SBUS device layer will use this as a sub-class.

I really cannot cut loose on that bit until sparc32 is given the
same infrastructure.
