x86: vdso linker script cleanup
I can't see the reason ". = VDSO_PRELINK + 0x900;" was ever there in
the linker script for the x86_64 vDSO. I can't find anything that
depends on this magic offset, or that should care at all about the
particular location of of the .data section (all from vvar.c) in the
vDSO image. If it is really desireable to place .data at 0x900, then it
should be after all the other sections so they fill in the space up to
0x900.
This removes the 0x900 magic and cleans up the output sections generally
in the vDSO linker script. This saves a few hundred bytes in the size
of the vDSO file, bringing it back well under 4kb total so that its vma
only needs one page.

x86: expand /proc/interrupts to include missing vectors, v2
Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts.
/proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by
the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting.
This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64
platforms, as appropriate:
rescheduling interrupts
TLB flush interrupts
function call interrupts
thermal event interrupts
threshold interrupts
spurious interrupts
A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too
high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional
ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC
failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail.
Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been
exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated
when the temperature drops back to a normal level.
A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the
device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees
the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case
the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff.
Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to
another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used
to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring.
AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks
AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts
AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.

x86: fix cpu_to_node references
In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using
NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0. Not only will most (99%?) of the
systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS
is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a
number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when
these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes.
Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu
accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu
does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node. Of course, if
the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still
require cross node exchanges of cache lines. A common use of this is
for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus
local to that node.
Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu
data area. In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is
referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup. In this case, a
static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the
booting cpu (BSP). The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after
it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest
of the __initdata.
This patch:
Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of
via the cpu_to_node macro. This is preparation to moving it to the
per_cpu data area.

Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level

x86: fix CONFIG_PAGEALLOC related boot hangs/OOMs
if CONFIG_PAGEALLOC is enabled then X86_FEATURE_PSE is disabled and all
the kernel physical RAM pagetables are set up as 4K pages. This is
needed so that CONFIG_PAGEALLOC can do finegrained mapping and unmapping
of pages.
as a side-effect though, the total size of memory allocated as kernel
pagetables increases significantly. All these pagetables are allocated
via alloc_bootmem_low_pages(), straight out of the lowmem DMA pool. If
the system has enough RAM and a large kernel image then almost all of
the 16 MB lowmem DMA pool is allocated to the image and to pagetables -
leaving no space for __GFP_DMA allocations.
this results in drivers failing and the bootup hanging:

Fix Kconfig dependency.
Fix change signaling behavior when file caps are not compiled in.
Nov 13:

capability.h, and use %zd for printing a size_t.
Nov 13:
Fix endianness warnings by sparse as suggested by Alexey
Dobriyan.
Nov 09:
Address warnings of unused variables at cap_bprm_set_security
when file capabilities are disabled, and simultaneously clean
up the code a little, by pulling the new code into a helper
function.
Nov 08:

them, see http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html.
Nov 07:

check_cap_sanity().
Nov 07:

capabilities are the default.
Hook cap_task_setscheduler when !CONFIG_SECURITY.
Move capable(TASK_KILL) to end of cap_task_kill to reduce
audit messages.
Nov 05:
Add secondary calls in selinux/hooks.c to task_setioprio and
task_setscheduler so that selinux and capabilities with file
cap support can be stacked.
Sep 05:
As Seth Arnold points out, uid checks are out of place
for capability code.
Sep 01:
Define task_setscheduler, task_setioprio, cap_task_kill, and
task_setnice to make sure a user cannot affect a process in which
they called a program with some fscaps.
One remaining question is the note under task_setscheduler: are we
ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being sufficient to confine a process to a
cpuset?
It is a semantic change, as without fsccaps, attach_task doesn't
allow CAP_SYS_NICE to override the uid equivalence check. But since
it uses security_task_setscheduler, which elsewhere is used where
CAP_SYS_NICE can be used to override the uid equivalence check,
fixing it might be tough.
task_setscheduler
note: this also controls cpuset:attach_task. Are we ok with
CAP_SYS_NICE being used to confine to a cpuset?
task_setioprio
task_setnice
sys_setpriority uses this (through set_one_prio) for another
process. Need same checks as setrlimit
Aug 21:
Updated secureexec implementation to reflect the fact that
euid and uid might be the same and nonzero, but the process
might still have elevated caps.
Aug 15:
Handle endianness of xattrs.
Enforce capability version match between kernel and disk.
Enforce that no bits beyond the known max capability are
set, else return -EPERM.
With this extra processing, it may be worth reconsidering
doing all the work at bprm_set_security rather than
d_instantiate.
Aug 10:
Always call getxattr at bprm_set_security, rather than
caching it at d_instantiate.

security: Convert LSM into a static interface
Convert LSM into a static interface, as the ability to unload a security
module is not required by in-tree users and potentially complicates the
overall security architecture.
Needlessly exported LSM symbols have been unexported, to help reduce API
abuse.
Parameters for the capability and root_plug modules are now specified
at boot.
The SECURITY_FRAMEWORK_VERSION macro has also been removed.
In a nutshell, there is no safe way to unload an LSM. The modular interface
is thus unecessary and broken infrastructure. It is used only by out-of-tree
modules, which are often binary-only, illegal, abusive of the API and
dangerous, e.g. silently re-vectoring SELinux.
