0b9e2cac8a [PATCH] Kprobes: Incorrect handling of probes on ret/lret instruction
Kprobes could not handle the insertion of a probe on the ret/lret
instruction and used to oops after single stepping since kprobes was
modifying eip/rip incorrectly.  Adjustment of eip/rip is not required after
single stepping in case of ret/lret instruction, because eip/rip points to
the correct location after execution of the ret/lret instruction.  This
patch fixes the above problem.

51a6b0c59a [PATCH] uml: s390 preparation, sighandler interface abstraction
s390 passes parameters in registers.  So the only safe way to find out the
address of signal context, error-address and error-type (trap_no), which are
passed to signal handlers as parameters, is to declare these parameters.

So I inserted an subarch-specific macro which holds the declaration of
parameters for signal handlers.

7d37c6d52f [PATCH] uml: s390 preparation, checksumming done in arch code
Checksum handling largely depends on the subarch.

Thus, I renamed i386 arch_csum_partial in arch/um/sys-i386/checksum.S back to
csum_partial, removed csum_partial from arch/um/kernel/checksum.c and shifted
EXPORT_SYMBOL(csum_partial) to arch/um/sys-i386/ksyms.c.

Then, csum_partial_copy_to and csum_partial_copy_from were shifted from
arch/um/kernel/checksum.c to arch/um/include/sysdep-i386/checksum.h and
inserted in the calling functions csum_partial_copy_from_user() and
csum_and_copy_to_user().

Now, arch/um/kernel/checksum.c is empty and removed.

cd2ee4a30c [PATCH] uml: Fix SIGWINCH relaying
This makes SIGWINCH work again, and fixes a couple of SIGWINCH-associated
crashes.  First, the sigio thread disables SIGWINCH because all hell breaks
loose if it ever gets one and tries to call the signal handling code.  Second,
there was a problem with deferencing tty structs after they were freed.  The
SIGWINCH support for a tty wasn't being turned off or freed after the tty went
away.

c578455a3e [PATCH] uml: S390 preparation, abstract host page fault data
This patch removes the arch-specific fault/trap-infos from thread and
skas-regs.

It adds a new struct faultinfo, that is arch-specific defined in
sysdep/faultinfo.h.

The structure is inserted in thread.arch and thread.regs.skas and
thread.regs.tt

Now, segv and other trap-handlers can copy the contents from regs.X.faultinfo
to thread.arch.faultinfo with one simple assignment.

Also, the number of macros necessary is reduced to

FAULT_ADDRESS(struct faultinfo)
    extracts the faulting address from faultinfo

FAULT_WRITE(struct faultinfo)
    extracts the "is_write" flag

SEGV_IS_FIXABLE(struct faultinfo)
    is true for the fixable segvs, i.e. (TRAP == 14)
    on i386

UPT_FAULTINFO(regs)
    result is (struct faultinfo *) to the faultinfo
    in regs->skas.faultinfo

GET_FAULTINFO_FROM_SC(struct faultinfo, struct sigcontext *)
    copies the relevant parts of the sigcontext to
    struct faultinfo.

On SIGSEGV, call user_signal() instead of handle_segv(), if the architecture
provides the information needed in PTRACE_FAULTINFO, or if PTRACE_FAULTINFO is
missing, because segv-stub will provide the info.

The benefit of the change is, that in case of a non-fixable SIGSEGV, we can
give user processes a SIGSEGV, instead of possibly looping on pagefault
handling.

Since handle_segv() sikked arch_fixup() implicitly by passing ip==0 to segv(),
I changed segv() to call arch_fixup() only, if !is_user.

8d0b9dc9be [PATCH] uml: start cross-build support : mk_user_constants
Beginning of cross-build fixes.  Instead of expecting that mk_user_constants
(compiled and executed on the build box) will see the sizeof, etc.  for target
box, we do what every architecture already does for asm-offsets.  Namely, have
user-offsets.c compiled *for* *target* into user-offsets.s and sed it into the
header with relevant constants.  We don't need to reinvent any wheels - all
tools are already there.

This patch deals with mk_user_constants.  It doesn't assume any relationship
between target and build environment anymore - we pick all defines we need
from user-offsets.h.  Later patches will deal with the rest of mk_...  helpers
in the same way.

0c28130b5c [PATCH] x86_64: make string func definition work as intended
In include/asm-x86_64/string.h there are such comments:

/* Use C out of line version for memcmp */
#define memcmp __builtin_memcmp
int memcmp(const void * cs,const void * ct,size_t count);

This would mean that if the compiler does not decide to use __builtin_memcmp,
it emits a call to memcmp to be satisfied by the C out-of-line version in
lib/string.c.  What happens is that after preprocessing, in lib/string.i you
may find the definition of "__builtin_strcmp".

Actually, by accident, in the object you will find the definition of strcmp
and such (maybe a trick intended to redirect calls to __builtin_memcmp to the
default memcmp when the definition is not expanded); however, this particular
case is not a documented feature as far as I can see.

Also, the EXPORT_SYMBOL does not work, so it's duplicated in the arch.

I simply added some #undef to lib/string.c and removed the (now duplicated)
exports in x86-64 and UML/x86_64 subarchs (the second ones are introduced by
another patch I just posted for -mm).

I can't use it verbatim because it depends on a special vmalloc-like area for

	- Abolishing never-used macros
	- Eliminating multiple #defines with the same purpose
	- Removing pointless macros (cases where just expanding the
macro everywhere turns out clearer and more sensible)
	- Removing some cases where macros which could be defined in
terms of each other weren't
	- Moving imalloc() related definitions from pgtable.h to their
own header file (imalloc.h)
	- Re-arranging headers to group things more logically
	- Moving all VSID allocation related things to mmu.h, instead
of being split between mmu.h and mmu_context.h
	- Removing some reserved space for flags from the PMD - we're
not using it.
	- Fix some bugs which broke compile with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.

various pmac/chrp/etc sections, this patch adds '_[se]extratext' markers

f48d9663f1 [PATCH] x86 stack initialisation fix
The recent change fix-crash-in-entrys-restore_all.patch

 	childregs->esp = esp;

 	p->thread.esp = (unsigned long) childregs;
-	p->thread.esp0 = (unsigned long) (childregs+1);
+	p->thread.esp0 = (unsigned long) (childregs+1) - 8;

 	p->thread.eip = (unsigned long) ret_from_fork;

introduces an inconsistency between esp and esp0 before the task is run the
first time.  esp0 is no longer the actual start of the stack, but 8 bytes
off.

This shows itself clearly in a scenario when a ptracer that is set to also
ptrace eventual children traces program1 which then clones thread1.  Now
the ptracer wants to modify the registers of thread1.  The x86 ptrace
implementation bases it's knowledge about saved user-space registers upon
p->thread.esp0.  But this will be a few bytes off causing certain writes to
the kernel stack to overwrite a saved kernel function address making the
kernel when actually running thread1 jump out into user-space.  Very
spectacular.

The testcase I've used is:
/* start with strace -f ./a.out */
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void *do_thread(void *p)
{
	for (;;);
}

int main()
{
	pthread_t one;
	pthread_create(&one, NULL, &do_thread, NULL);
	for (;;);
	return 0;
}

So, my solution is to instead of just adjusting esp0 that creates an
inconsitent state I adjust where the user-space registers are saved with -8
bytes.  This gives us the wanted extra bytes on the start of the stack and
esp0 is now correct.  This solves the issues I saw from the original
testcase from Mateusz Berezecki and has survived testing here.  I think
this should go into -mm a round or two first however as there might be some
cruft around depending on pt_regs lying on the start of the stack.  That
however would have broken with the first change too!

It's actually a 2-line diff but I had to move the comment of why the -8 bytes
are there a few lines up. Thanks to Zwane for helping me with this.

3b9fa0931d [PATCH] Kconfig i18n support
This patch adds i18n support for make *config, allowing users to have the
config process in their own language.

No printk was harmed in the process, don't worry, so all the bug reports,
kernel messages, etc, remain in english, just the user tools to configure
the kernel are internationalized.

Users not interested in translations can just unset the related LANG,
LC_ALL, etc env variables and have the config process in plain english,
something like:

LANG= make menuconfig

is enough for having the whole config process in english. Or just don't
install any translation file.

Translations for brazilian portuguese are being done by a team of
volunteers at:

http://www.visionflex.inf.br/kernel_ptbr/pmwiki.php/Principal/Traducoes

To start the translation process:

  make update-po-config

  This will generate the pot template named scripts/kconfig/linux.pot,
  copy it to, say, ~/es.po, to start the translation for spanish.

To test your translation, as root issue this command:

  msgfmt -o /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/linux.mo ~/es.po

  Replace "es" with your language code.

  Then execute, for instance:

  make menuconfig

The current patch doesn't use any optimization to reduce the size of the
generated .mo file, it is possible to use the config option as a key, but
this doesn't prevent the current patch from being used or the translations
done under the current scheme to be in any way lost if we chose to do any
kind of keying.

Thanks to Fabricio Vaccari for starting the pt_BR (brazilian portuguese)
translation effort, Thiago Maciera for helping me with the gconf.cc (QT
frontent) i18n coding and to all the volunteers that are already working on
the first translation, to pt_BR.

I left the question on whether to ship the translations with the stock kernel
sources to be discussed here, please share your suggestions.
