ce29b682e2 [PATCH] More user space subject labels
Hi,

The patch below builds upon the patch sent earlier and adds subject label to
all audit events generated via the netlink interface. It also cleans up a few
other minor things.

e7c3497013 [PATCH] Reworked patch for labels on user space messages
The below patch should be applied after the inode and ipc sid patches.
This patch is a reworking of Tim's patch that has been updated to match
the inode and ipc patches since its similar.

[updated:
>  Stephen Smalley also wanted to change a variable from isec to tsec in the
>  user sid patch.                                                              ]

9c7aa6aa74 [PATCH] change lspp ipc auditing
Hi,

The patch below converts IPC auditing to collect sid's and convert to context
string only if it needs to output an audit record. This patch depends on the
inode audit change patch already being applied.

1b50eed9ca [PATCH] audit inode patch
Previously, we were gathering the context instead of the sid. Now in this patch,
we gather just the sid and convert to context only if an audit event is being
output.

This patch brings the performance hit from 146% down to 23%

376bd9cb35 [PATCH] support for context based audit filtering
The following patch provides selinux interfaces that will allow the audit
system to perform filtering based on the process context (user, role, type,
sensitivity, and clearance).  These interfaces will allow the selinux
module to perform efficient matches based on lower level selinux constructs,
rather than relying on context retrievals and string comparisons within
the audit module.  It also allows for dominance checks on the mls portion
of the contexts that are impossible with only string comparisons.

68ac64cd3f [SERIAL] Clean up serial locking when obtaining a reference to a port
The locking for the uart_port is over complicated, and can be
simplified if we introduce a flag to indicate that a port is "dead"
and will be removed.

This also helps the validator because it removes a case of non-nested
unlock ordering.

- Add a parameter to repeat debouncing, so that more then two consecutive

dc6de33674 [NET]: Add skb->truesize assertion checking.
Add some sanity checking.  truesize should be at least sizeof(struct
sk_buff) plus the current packet length.  If not, then truesize is
seriously mangled and deserves a kernel log message.

Currently we'll do the check for release of stream socket buffers.

But we can add checks to more spots over time.

5e85d4abe3 [PATCH] task: Make task list manipulations RCU safe
While we can currently walk through thread groups, process groups, and
sessions with just the rcu_read_lock, this opens the door to walking the
entire task list.

We already have all of the other RCU guarantees so there is no cost in
doing this, this should be enough so that proc can stop taking the
tasklist lock during readdir.

prev_task was killed because it has no users, and using it will miss new
tasks when doing an rcu traversal.

      dmi_scan.c is arch-independent and is used by i386, x86_64, and ia64.
      Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64

      about.
      
      This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing
      trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes.  All three
      architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.

There 1022:7450 is listed as "AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge" while 1022:7451
is listed as "AMD-8131 PCI-X IOAPIC".  Yet, the current definition for
0x7450 is PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMD_8131_APIC.	It seems to me like that name

should map to 0x7450.

d4d7e5dffc [PATCH] BLOCK: delay all uevents until partition table is scanned
[BLOCK] delay all uevents until partition table is scanned

Here we delay the annoucement of all block device events until the
disk's partition table is scanned and all partition devices are already
created and sysfs is populated.

We have a bunch of old bugs for removable storage handling where we
probe successfully for a filesystem on the raw disk, but at the
same time the kernel recognizes a partition table and creates partition
devices.
Currently there is no sane way to tell if partitions will show up or not
at the time the disk device is announced to userspace. With the delayed
events we can simply skip any probe for a filesystem on the raw disk when
we find already present partitions.

4508a7a734 [PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs attribute files to be pollable
It works like this:
  Open the file
  Read all the contents.
  Call poll requesting POLLERR or POLLPRI (so select/exceptfds works)
  When poll returns,
     close the file and go to top of loop.
   or lseek to start of file and go back to the 'read'.

Events are signaled by an object manager calling
   sysfs_notify(kobj, dir, attr);

If the dir is non-NULL, it is used to find a subdirectory which
contains the attribute (presumably created by sysfs_create_group).

This has a cost of one int  per attribute, one wait_queuehead per kobject,
one int per open file.

The name "sysfs_notify" may be confused with the inotify
functionality.  Maybe it would be nice to support inotify for sysfs
attributes as well?

This patch also uses sysfs_notify to allow /sys/block/md*/md/sync_action
to be pollable

21b2f0c803 [SCSI] unify SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND implementations
We currently have two implementations of this obsolete ioctl, one in
the block layer and one in the scsi code.  Both of them have drawbacks.

This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version
with the missing bits:

 - argument checking
 - use scatterlist I/O
 - set number of retries based on the submitted command

This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so
getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill
the non-S/G I/O path.  Jens, what do you think about adding a check

c9e617a563 Input: ads7846 - handle IRQs that were latched during disabled IRQs
The pen down IRQ will toggle during each X,Y,Z measurement cycle.
Even though the IRQ is disabled it will be latched and delivered
when after enable_irq. Thus in the IRQ handler we must avoid
starting a new measurement cycle when such an "unwanted" IRQ happens.
Add a get_pendown_state platform function, which will probably
determine this by reading the current GPIO level of the pen IRQ pin.

Move the IRQ reenabling from the SPI RX function to the timer. After
the last power down message the pen IRQ pin is still active for a
while and get_pendown_state would report incorrectly a pen down state.

When suspending we should check the ts->pending flag instead of
ts->pendown, since the timer can be pending regardless of ts->pendown.
Also if ts->pending is set we can be sure that the timer is running,
so no need to rearm it. Similarly if ts->pending is not set we can
be sure that the IRQ is enabled (and the timer is not).

Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and

An UML user reported (against 2.6.13.3/UML) he got kernel Oopses when
trying to rmmod (on a kernel with module unloading enabled) a module
compiled with module unloading disabled.  As crashing is a very correct
thing to do in that case, a solution is altering the vermagic string to
include this too.

Possibly, however, the code should not crash in this case, even if the
module didn't support unloading - it should simply abort the module
removal.  In this case, fixing that bug would be a better solution.  I've
not investigated though.

c80d79d746 [PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFT
Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for
each arch.  Its definition is sometimes configurable.  Indeed, ia64 defines 5
NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree.  But it looks a bit messy.

SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has
been changeable by config.  Suitable node's number may be changed in the
future even if it is other architecture.  So, I wrote configurable node's
number.

This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi
nodes except ia64.  But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary.

On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2
config.  But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too.  So, I
changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT.  It
would be simpler.

cb45b0e966 [PATCH] overcommit: add calculate_totalreserve_pages()
These patches are an enhancement of OVERCOMMIT_GUESS algorithm in
__vm_enough_memory().

- why the kernel needed patching

  When the kernel can't allocate anonymous pages in practice, currnet
  OVERCOMMIT_GUESS could return success. This implementation might be
  the cause of oom kill in memory pressure situation.

  If the Linux runs with page reservation features like
  /proc/sys/vm/lowmem_reserve_ratio and without swap region, I think
  the oom kill occurs easily.

- the overall design approach in the patch

  When the OVERCOMMET_GUESS algorithm calculates number of free pages,
  the reserved free pages are regarded as non-free pages.

  This change helps to avoid the pitfall that the number of free pages
  become less than the number which the kernel tries to keep free.

- testing results

  I tested the patches using my test kernel module.

  If the patches aren't applied to the kernel, __vm_enough_memory()
  returns success in the situation but autual page allocation is
  failed.

  On the other hand, if the patches are applied to the kernel, memory
  allocation failure is avoided since __vm_enough_memory() returns
  failure in the situation.

  I checked that on i386 SMP 16GB memory machine. I haven't tested on
  nommu environment currently.

This patch adds totalreserve_pages for __vm_enough_memory().

Calculate_totalreserve_pages() checks maximum lowmem_reserve pages and
pages_high in each zone. Finally, the function stores the sum of each
zone to totalreserve_pages.

The totalreserve_pages is calculated when the VM is initilized.
And the variable is updated when /proc/sys/vm/lowmem_reserve_raito
or /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes are changed.

NOTE: this is a user-visible change.  However:
  - The bad code has not appeared in a released kernel
  - This code is still marked 'experimental'
  - This only affects version-1 superblock, which are not in wide use
  - These field are only used (rather than simply reported) by user-space
    tools in extemely rare circumstances : after a reshape crashes in the
    first second of the reshape process.

So I believe that, at this stage, the change is safe.  Especially if people

de12a7878c [PATCH] de_thread: Don't confuse users do_each_thread.
Oleg Nesterov spotted two interesting bugs with the current de_thread
code.  The simplest is a long standing double decrement of
__get_cpu_var(process_counts) in __unhash_process.  Caused by
two processes exiting when only one was created.

The other is that since we no longer detach from the thread_group list
it is possible for do_each_thread when run under the tasklist_lock to
see the same task_struct twice.  Once on the task list as a
thread_group_leader, and once on the thread list of another
thread.

The double appearance in do_each_thread can cause a double increment
of mm_core_waiters in zap_threads resulting in problems later on in
coredump_wait.

To remedy those two problems this patch takes the simple approach
of changing the old thread group leader into a child thread.
The only routine in release_task that cares is __unhash_process,
and it can be trivially seen that we handle cleaning up a
thread group leader properly.

Since de_thread doesn't change the pid of the exiting leader process
and instead shares it with the new leader process.  I change
thread_group_leader to recognize group leadership based on the
group_leader field and not based on pids.  This should also be
slightly cheaper then the existing thread_group_leader macro.

I performed a quick audit and I couldn't see any user of
thread_group_leader that cared about the difference.

676165a8af [PATCH] Fix buddy list race that could lead to page lru list corruptions
Rohit found an obscure bug causing buddy list corruption.

page_is_buddy is using a non-atomic test (PagePrivate && page_count == 0)
to determine whether or not a free page's buddy is itself free and in the
buddy lists.

Each of the conjuncts may be true at different times due to unrelated
conditions, so the non-atomic page_is_buddy test may find each conjunct to
be true even if they were not both true at the same time (ie. the page was
not on the buddy lists).

529565dcb1 [PATCH] splice: add optional input and output offsets
add optional input and output offsets to sys_splice(), for seekable file
descriptors:

 asmlinkage long sys_splice(int fd_in, loff_t __user *off_in,
                            int fd_out, loff_t __user *off_out,
                            size_t len, unsigned int flags);

semantics are straightforward: f_pos will be updated with the offset
provided by user-space, before the splice transfer is about to begin.
Providing a NULL offset pointer means the existing f_pos will be used
(and updated in situ).  Providing an offset for a pipe results in
-ESPIPE. Providing an invalid offset pointer results in -EFAULT.

3a326a2ce8 [PATCH] introduce a "kernel-internal pipe object" abstraction
separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it
usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the
internal splice APIs and the pipe code:

 - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric
   and more streamlined with existing kernel practices.

 - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice
   methods

b20367a6c2 [PATCH] x86_64: Fix drift with HPET timer enabled
If the HPET timer is enabled, the clock can drift by ~3 seconds a day.
This is due to the HPET timer not being initialized with the correct
setting (still using PIT count).

If HZ changes, this drift can become even more pronounced.

HPET patch initializes tick_nsec with correct tick_nsec settings for
HPET timer.

Vojtech comments:

  "It's not entirely correct (it assumes the HPET ticks totally
   exactly), but it's significantly better than assuming the PIT error
   there."

a8062231d8 [PATCH] x86_64: Handle empty PXMs that only contain hotplug memory
The node setup code would try to allocate the node metadata in the node
itself, but that fails if there is no memory in there.

This can happen with memory hotplug when the hotplug area defines an so
far empty node.

Now use bootmem to try to allocate the mem_map in other nodes.

And if it fails don't panic, but just ignore the node.

To make this work I added a new __alloc_bootmem_nopanic function that
does what its name implies.

TBD should try to use nearby nodes here.  Currently we just use any.
It's hard to do it better because bootmem doesn't have proper fallback
lists yet.

3e7ee3e7b3 [PATCH] splice: fix page stealing LRU handling.
Originally from Nick Piggin, just adapted to the newer branch.

You can't check PageLRU without holding zone->lru_lock.  The page
release code can get away with it only because the page refcount is 0 at
that point. Also, you can't reliably remove pages from the LRU unless
the refcount is 0. Ever.

By cleaning up the writeback logic (killing write_one_page() and the manual

just keep it local in pipe_to_file().

This also adds dirty page balancing logic and O_SYNC handling.
