x86: fix broken TASK_SIZE for ia32_aout

2012-05-06T17:15:18+00:00

Setting TIF_IA32 in load_aout_binary() used to be enough; these days TASK_SIZE is controlled by TIF_ADDR32 and that one doesn't get set there. Switch to use of set_personality_ia32()... Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

TTY: pdc_cons, fix regression in close

2012-05-05T23:21:21+00:00

The test in pdc_console_tty_close '!tty->count' was always wrong because tty->count is decremented after tty->ops->close is called and thus can never be zero. Hence the 'then' branch was never executed and the timer never deleted. This did not matter until commit 5dd5bc40f3b6 ("TTY: pdc_cons, use tty_port"). There we needed to set TTY in tty_port to NULL, but this never happened due to the bug above. So change the test to really trigger at the last close by changing the condition to 'tty->count == 1'. Well, the driver should not touch tty->count at all. It should use tty_port->count and count open count there itself.

arch/x86/platform/geode/net5501.c: change active_low to 0 for LED driver

2012-05-04T21:40:07+00:00

It seems that there was an error with the active_low = 1 for the LED, since it should be set to 0 (meaning that active is high, since 0 is false, hence the confusion. The wiki article about it confuses it, since it contradicts itself, regarding what turns on the LED. I have tested 3.4-rc2 on my net5501 with this patch, and it makes the LED behave correctly, where "none" turns it off, and "default-on" turns it on, when echoed onto the trigger "file" in /sys/class/leds.

Merge branch 'fix-unmapped-word-at-a-time'

2012-05-04T14:50:50+00:00

Jana Saout confirmed that this fixes the page faults he saw. His problem was triggered by ocfs2 and autofs symlink lookups, where the symlink allocation was at the end of a page. But the deeper reason seems to be the use of Xen-PV, which is what then causes him to have all these unmapped pages, which is what then makes it a problem when the unaligned word-at-a-time code fetches data past the end of a page. * fix-unmapped-word-at-a-time: vfs: make word-at-a-time accesses handle a non-existing page

Fix from Sasha Levin. 10) udp_diag should return meaningful values for socket memory usage, from Shan Wei. 11) Eric Dumazet is so awesome he gets his own section: Socket memory cgroup code (I never should have applied those patches, grumble...) made erroneous changes to sk_sockets_allocated_read_positive(). It was changed to use percpu_counter_sum_positive (which requires BH disabling) instead of percpu_counter_read_positive (which does not). Revert back to avoid crashes and lockdep warnings. Adjust the default tcp_adv_win_scale and tcp_rmem[2] values to fix throughput regressions. This is necessary as a result of our more precise skb->truesize tracking.

vfs: make word-at-a-time accesses handle a non-existing page

2012-05-03T21:01:40+00:00

It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes dynamically. Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case of it being a page-crosser with no next page. And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next page. IOW, this could do the byte order magic too. Peter Anvin fixed a thinko in the shifting for the exception case. Reported-and-tested-by: Jana Saout Cc: Peter Anvin Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
