There were a few issues with the ppc64 noexec support:
The 64bit ABI has a non executable stack by default. At the moment 64bit apps
require a PT_GNU_STACK section in order to have a non executable stack.
Disable the read implies exec workaround on the 64bit ABI. The 64bit
toolchain has never had problems with incorrect mmap permissions (the 32bit
has, thats why we need to retain the workaround).

[PATCH] PPC64: Remove hot busy-wait loop in __hash_page
It turns out that our current __hash_page code will do a very hot busy-wait
loop waiting on _PAGE_BUSY to be cleared. It even does ldarx/stdcx in the
loop, which will bounce reservations around like crazy if there's more than
one CPU spinning on the same PTE (or even another PTE in the same
reservation granule). The end result is that each fault takes longer when
there's contention, which in turn increases the chance of another thread
hitting the same fault and also piling up. Not pretty.
There's two options here:
1. Do an out-of-line busy loop a'la spinlocks with just loads (no
reserves)
2. Just bail and refault if needed.
(2) makes sense here: If the PTE is busy, chances are it's in flux anyway
and the other code path making a change might just be ready to hash it.
This fixes a stampede seen on a large-ish system where a multithreaded
HPC app faults in the same text pages on several cpus at the same time.

When I tried Ben's patches to the powermac sound driver on my G5, I found
that it was taking enormous numbers of sound DMA transmit interrupts. This
turned out to be because it was incorrectly configured as level-sensitive
instead of edge-sensitive, which in turn was because the code that parses
the interrupt tree that Open Firmware gives us was incorrectly assigning
another device the same irq number as the sound DMA transmit interrupt
(i.e. 1).
This patch fixes the problem, in a somewhat quick and dirty way for now,
but one which will work for all the machines we currently run on.

[PATCH] SELinux: add finer grained permissions to Netlink audit processing
This patch provides finer grained permissions for the audit family of
Netlink sockets under SELinux.
1. We need a way to differentiate between privileged and unprivileged
reads of kernel data maintained by the audit subsystem. The AUDIT_GET
operation is unprivileged: it returns the current status of the audit
subsystem (e.g. whether it's enabled etc.). The AUDIT_LIST operation
however returns a list of the current audit ruleset, which is considered
privileged by the audit folk. To deal with this, a new SELinux
permission has been implemented and applied to the operation:
nlmsg_readpriv, which can be allocated to appropriately privileged
domains. Unprivileged domains would only be allocated nlmsg_read.
2. There is a requirement for certain domains to generate audit events
from userspace. These events need to be collected by the kernel,
collated and transmitted sequentially back to the audit daemon. An
example is user level login, an auditable event under CAPP, where
login-related domains generate AUDIT_USER messages via PAM which are
relayed back to auditd via the kernel. To prevent handing out
nlmsg_write permissions to such domains, a new permission has been
added, nlmsg_relay, which is intended for this type of purpose: data is
passed via the kernel back to userspace but no privileged information is
written to the kernel.
Also, AUDIT_LOGIN messages are now valid only for kernel->user messaging,
so this value has been removed from the SELinux nlmsgtab (which is only
used to check user->kernel messages).

[PATCH] mempool: simplify alloc
Mempool is pretty clever. Looks too clever for its own good :) It
shouldn't really know so much about page reclaim internals.
- don't guess about what effective page reclaim might involve.
- don't randomly flush out all dirty data if some unlikely thing
happens (alloc returns NULL). page reclaim can (sort of :P) handle
it.
I think the main motivation is trying to avoid pool->lock at all costs.
However the first allocation is attempted with __GFP_WAIT cleared, so it
will be 'can_try_harder' if it hits the page allocator. So if allocation
still fails, then we can probably afford to hit the pool->lock - and what's
the alternative? Try page reclaim and hit zone->lru_lock?
A nice upshot is that we don't need to do any fancy memory barriers or do
(intentionally) racy access to pool-> fields outside the lock.

The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux,
kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice
when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user.
kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does
a full kernel compile before performing the install.

When the kernel creates a signal frame on the user stack, it puts the

Unfortunately, for 32-bit processes we are writing the old stack
pointer as a 64-bit value rather than a 32-bit value, and the process
sees that as a null pointer, since it only looks at the first 32 bits,
which are zero since ppc is bigendian and the stack pointer is below

[PATCH] ARM: 2660/2: fix ixdp2800 boot and pci init
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
The IXDP2800 is an evalution platform for the IXP2800 processor that
has two IXP2800s connected to the same PCI bus. This is problematic
as both CPUs will try to configure the PCI bus as they boot linux.
Contrary to on the other IXP2000 platforms, the boot loader on the
IXDP2800 doesn't configure the PCI bus properly, so we do want the
linux instance on one of the CPUs to do that.
Making one of the CPUs ignore the PCI bus (and thus act like a pure
PCI slave device) is not an option because there is a 82559 NIC on
the PCI bus for each of the CPUs.
The chosen solution is to have the master CPU configure the PCI bus
while the slave is kept in a quiescent state, and then to have the
slave CPU scan the PCI bus (without assigning resources) while the
master is kept in a quiescent state. After this ritual, the master
deletes the slave NIC from its PCI device list, the slave deletes
the master NIC from its device list, and (almost) all is well.
There's still one little problem: each of the CPUs has a 1G SDRAM
BAR, but the IXP2000 only has 512M of outbound PCI memory window.
We solve this by hand-assigning the master and slave SDRAM BARs to
a location outside each of the IXP's outbound PCI windows, and by
having the rest of the BARs autoconfigured in the outbound PCI
windows, in the range [
e0000000..
ffffffff], so that there is a 1:1
pci:phys mapping between them.
Even with this patch, a number of issues still remain -- just imagine
what happens if one of the CPUs is rebooted, by watchdog or by hand,
but the other one isn't. But those issues are not easily fixable
given the strange PCI layout of this board and the behavior of the
boot loader shipped with the platform.

[PATCH] ARM: 2651/3: kernel helpers for NPTL support
Patch from Nicolas Pitre
This patch entirely reworks the kernel assistance for NPTL on ARM.
In particular this provides an efficient way to retrieve the TLS
value and perform atomic operations without any instruction emulation
nor special system call. This even allows for pre ARMv6 binaries to
be forward compatible with SMP systems without any penalty.
The problematic and performance critical operations are performed
through segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space
at a fixed address in kernel memory. Those fixed entry points are
within the vector page so we basically get it for free as no extra
memory page is required and nothing else may be mapped at that
location anyway.
This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO
implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with
constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments.
And since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to
user code, the overhead of a VDSO far call would add a significant
overhead to such minimalistic operations.
The ARM_NR_set_tls syscall also changed number. This is done for two
reasons:
1) this patch changes the way the TLS value was previously meant to be
retrieved, therefore we ensure whatever library using the old way
gets fixed (they only exist in private tree at the moment since the
NPTL work is still progressing).
2) the previous number was allocated in a range causing an undefined
instruction trap on kernels not supporting that syscall and it was
determined that allocating it in a range returning -ENOSYS would be
much nicer for libraries trying to determine if the feature is
present or not.
