write_opcode() ensures that UPROBE_SWBP_INSN doesn't cross the
page boundary. This looks a bit confusing, the check does not
depend on vaddr and it is enough to do it only once right after
install_breakpoint()->arch_uprobe_analyze_insn().

write_opcode() is called by register_for_each_vma() and
uprobe_mmap() paths. In both cases the caller has already
verified this vaddr under mmap_sem, no need to re-check.
Note also that this check is wrong anyway, we should not
truncate loff_t returned by vma_address() if we do not trust
this mapping.

Remove this argument.

of vma.

Currently register_for_each_vma() is O(n ** 2) + O(n ** 3),
every time find_next_vma_info() "restarts" the
vma_prio_tree_foreach() loop and each iteration rechecks the
whole try_list. This also means that try_list can grow
"indefinitely" if register/unregister races with munmap/mmap
activity even if the number of mapping is bounded at any time.
With this patch register_for_each_vma() builds the list of
mm/vaddr structures only once and does install_breakpoint() for
each entry.
We do not care about the new mappings which can be created after
build_map_info() drops mapping->i_mmap_mutex, uprobe_mmap()
should do its work.
Note that we do not allocate map_info under i_mmap_mutex, this
can deadlock with page reclaim (but see the next patch). So we
use 2 lists, "curr" which we are going to return, and "prev"
which holds the already allocated memory. The main loop deques
the entry from "prev" (initially it is empty), and if "prev"
becomes empty again it counts the number of entries we need to
pre-allocate outside of i_mmap_mutex.

install_breakpoint() returns -EEXIST if is_swbp_insn(orig_insn)
== T, the caller treats this code as success.
This is doubly wrong. The successful return should set
UPROBE_COPY_INSN, but the real problem is that it shouldn't
succeed. If the probed insn is int3 the application should get
SIGTRAP, this won't happen with uprobe.
Probably we can fix this, we can add the UPROBE_SHARED_BP flag
and teach handle_swbp/set_orig_insn to handle this case
correctly. But this needs some complications and we have other
insns which can't be probed, lets make a simple fix for now.
I think this needs a cleanup. UPROBE_COPY_INSN should die,
copy_insn() should be called by alloc_uprobe().
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() depends on ->mm (ia32_compat) but it
is called only once.

write_opcode() gets old_page via get_user_pages() and then calls
__replace_page() which assumes that this old_page is still
mapped after pte_offset_map_lock().
This is not true if this old_page was already try_to_unmap()'ed,
and in this case everything __replace_page() does with old_page
is wrong. Just for example, put_page() is not balanced.
I think it is possible to teach __replace_page() to handle this
unlikely case correctly, but this patch simply changes it to use
page_check_address() and return -EAGAIN if it fails. The caller
should notice this error code and retry.
Note: write_opcode() asks for the cleanups, I'll try to do this
in a separate patch.

This reverts commit 9e612a008f.
It incorrectly finds VGA connectors where none are attached, apparently
not noticing that nothing replied to the EDID queries, and happily using
the default EDID modes that have nothing to do with actual hardware.
That in turn then causes X to fall down to the lowest common
denominator, which is usually the default 1024x768 mode that is in the
default EDID and pretty much anything supports).
I'd suggest that if not relying on the HDP pin, the code should at least
check whether it gets valid EDID data back, rather than just assume
there's something on the VGA connector.

This reverts commit 7732a557b1 (and commit
3f50fff4da, which was a follow-up
cleanup).
We're chasing an elusive bug that Dave Jones can apparently reproduce
using his system call fuzzer tool, and that looks like some kind of
locking ordering problem on the directory i_mutex chain. Our i_mutex
locking is rather complex, and depends on the topological ordering of
the directories, which is why we have been very wary of splicing
directory entries around.
Of course, we really don't want to ever see aliased unconnected
directories anyway, so none of this should ever happen, but this revert
aims to basically get us back to a known older state.
Bruce points to some of the previous discussion at
http://marc.info/?i=<20110310105821.GE22723@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>
and in particular a long post from Neil:
http://marc.info/?i=<20110311150749.2fa2be66@notabene.brown>
It should be noted that it's possible that Dave's problems come from
other changes altohgether, including possibly just the fact that Dave
constantly is teachning his fuzzer new tricks. So what appears to be a
new bug could in fact be an old one that just gets newly triggered, but
reverting these patches as "still under heavy discussion" is the right
thing regardless.

Both of these are attributed to the internal representation of
the nmiaction struct created during register_nmi_handler. The
reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the
init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is.
To resolve this, I created a new #define,
register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as
__initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be
used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called
during init of the kernel.

This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading
a kernel module.
According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned
the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame.
In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call()
(in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used
to generate trampoline code.
This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler
chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the
module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the
.text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for
functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper.
Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame
using r11 can cause an oops.
The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the
trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is
safe from an EABI perspective.
I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.
But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

| Kernel panic - not syncing: Cannot find space for the kernel page tables
git bisect commit 722bc6b167.
A git revert of that commit does boot past that point on the 8TB
configuration.
That commit will add up extra pages for all memory range even
above 4g.
Try to limit that extra page count adding to first entry only.

Commit 026cee0086 "params:
<level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module
parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().
We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.
(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).
Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

This reverts 68568add2c ("powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check
of decrementer expiration"). We do need to check whether we have reached
the expiration time of the next event, because we sometimes get an early
decrementer interrupt, most notably when we set the decrementer to 1 in
arch_irq_work_raise(). The effect of not having the sanity check is that
if timer_interrupt() gets called early, we leave the decrementer set to
its maximum value, which means we then don't get any more decrementer
interrupts for about 4 seconds (or longer, depending on timebase
frequency). I saw these pauses as a consequence of getting a stray
hypervisor decrementer interrupt left over from exiting a KVM guest.
This isn't quite a straight revert because of changes to the surrounding
code, but it restores the same algorithm as was previously used.

This reverts commit 40af1bbdca.
It's horribly and utterly broken for at least the following reasons:
- calling sync_mm_rss() from mmput() is fundamentally wrong, because
there's absolutely no reason to believe that the task that does the
mmput() always does it on its own VM. Example: fork, ptrace, /proc -
you name it.
- calling it *after* having done mmdrop() on it is doubly insane, since
the mm struct may well be gone now.
- testing mm against NULL before you call it is insane too, since a
NULL mm there would have caused oopses long before.
.. and those are just the three bugs I found before I decided to give up
looking for me and revert it asap. I should have caught it before I
even took it, but I trusted Andrew too much.

Commit 7990696 uses the ext4_{set,clear}_inode_flags() functions to

Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:
EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd
This problem can be reproduced via:
mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test
The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.

MAINTAINERS: whitespace fixes
shmem: replace_page must flush_dcache and others
mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before
changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with
sync_mm_rss().
do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before
committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats,
audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before
calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing
task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and
task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes
inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this:
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1
This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release()
out of do_exit() and calls it earlier. After mm_release() there should
be no pagefaults.

The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in
btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and
then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals
when we do eg
longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen);
to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to
copy the key value that retry_key points to __key.
This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only
operations such as btree_for_each_safe.

Commit 17cf28afea ("mm/fs: remove truncate_range") removed the
truncate_range inode operation in favour of the fallocate file
operation.
When using SYSV IPC shared memory segments, calling madvise with the
MADV_REMOVE advice on an area of shared memory will attempt to invoke
the .fallocate function for the shm_file_operations, which is NULL and
therefore returns -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. The previous behaviour
would inherit the inode_operations from the underlying tmpfs file and
invoke truncate_range there.
This patch restores the previous behaviour by wrapping the underlying
fallocate function in shm_fallocate, as we do for fsync.

In commit b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc/<pid>/maps") the stack allocated via clone() is marked in
/proc/<pid>/maps as [stack:%d] thus it might be out of the former
mm->start_stack/end_stack values (and even has some custom VMA flags
set).
So to be able to restore mm->start_stack/end_stack drop vma flags test,
but still require the underlying VMA to exist.
As always note this feature is under CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE and
requires CAP_SYS_RESOURCE to be granted.

Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This
functionality is used by pthread_join().
We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the
current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space.
Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore
pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored.
This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows
the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address.
This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

A fix for commit b32dfe3771 ("c/r: prctl: add ability to set new
mm_struct::exe_file").
After removing mm->num_exe_file_vmas kernel keeps mm->exe_file until
final mmput(), it never becomes NULL while task is alive.
We can check for other mapped files in mm instead of checking
mm->num_exe_file_vmas, and mark mm with flag MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED in
order to forbid second changing of mm->exe_file.
