[PATCH] x86_64: Don't do broadcast IPIs when hotplug is enabled in flat mode.

The use of non-shortcut version of routines breaking CPU hotplug.  The option
to select this via cmdline also is deleted with the physflat patch, hence
directly placing this code under CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

We dont want to use broadcast mode IPI's when hotplug is enabled.  This causes
bad effects in send IPI to a cpu that is offline which can trip when the cpu
is in the process of being kicked alive.

shouldn't re-compute the seccomp check or the task could be killed during
sigreturn when orig_eax is overwritten by the sigreturn syscall.  This was

it the default) and I reproduced it too by keeping the whole workload under

up the incore inode security state for new inodes before the inode becomes
accessible via the dcache.

As there is no underlying storage of security xattrs in this case, it is
not necessary for the hook to return the (name, value, len) triple to the
tmpfs code, so this patch also modifies the SELinux hook function to
correctly handle the case where the (name, value, len) pointers are NULL.

The hook call is needed in tmpfs in order to support proper security
labeling of tmpfs inodes (e.g.  for udev with tmpfs /dev in Fedora).  With

[PATCH] security: enable atomic inode security labeling

The following patch set enables atomic security labeling of newly created
inodes by altering the fs code to invoke a new LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state during the inode creation transaction.  This parallels the
existing processing for setting ACLs on newly created inodes.  Otherwise, it
is possible for new inodes to be accessed by another thread via the dcache
prior to complete security setup (presently handled by the
post_create/mkdir/...  LSM hooks in the VFS) and a newly created inode may be
left unlabeled on the disk in the event of a crash.  SELinux presently works
around the issue by ensuring that the incore inode security label is
initialized to a special SID that is inaccessible to unprivileged processes
(in accordance with policy), thereby preventing inappropriate access but
potentially causing false denials on legitimate accesses.  A simple test
program demonstrates such false denials on SELinux, and the patch solves the
problem.  Similar such false denials have been encountered in real
applications.

This patch defines a new inode_init_security LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state for it, and adds a corresponding hook function implementation
to SELinux.

Mark Fasheh [Fri, 9 Sep 2005 20:01:29 +0000 (13:01 -0700)]
[PATCH] move truncate_inode_pages() into ->delete_inode()

Allow file systems supporting ->delete_inode() to call
truncate_inode_pages() on their own.  OCFS2 wants this so it can query the
cluster before making a final decision on whether to wipe an inode from
disk or not.  In some corner cases an inode marked on the local node via
voting may not actually get orphaned.  A good example is node death before
the transaction moving the inode to the orphan dir commits to the journal.
Without this patch, the truncate_inode_pages() call in
generic_delete_inode() would discard valid data for such inodes.

During earlier discussion in the 2.6.13 merge plan thread, Christoph
Hellwig indicated that other file systems might also find this useful.

IMHO, the best solution would be to just allow ->drop_inode() to do the
cluster query but it seems that would require a substantial reworking of
that section of the code.  Assuming it is safe to call write_inode_now() in
ocfs2_delete_inode() for those inodes which won't actually get wiped, this
solution should get us by for now.

Trivial testing of this patch (and a related OCFS2 update) has shown this
to avoid the corruption I'm seeing.

Allow PCI config space syscalls to be used by 64-bit processes.

The pciconfig_iobase, pciconfig_read and pciconfig_write system calls
were only implemented for 32-bit processes; for 64-bit processes they
returned an ENOSYS error.  This allows them to be used by 64-bit

Zaurus, and RNDIS) will have smoother TX paths.  Even for

      * now net->hard_header_len and dev->hard_mtu are set up in the

  - Transaction ID is no longer specific to the Net1080 framing;
    RNDIS needs one too.

  - Creates a new "usbnet.h" header with declarations that are shared

minidrivers into separate modules (e.g. ones for ASIX adapters,

This patch started life as as534, and has been re-diffed against the latest
tree.

usb-storage has a small loophole, a window between the time queuecommand
accepts a new command and the time the control thread starts to execute
it.  If disconnect is called during that window, the driver won't cancel
the pending command -- we've been relying on the SCSI core to cancel it
for us during host removal.  But it's better for usb-storage to cancel
it;  this avoids races and reduces reliance on the SCSI core.
Fortunately cancelling these commands is easy to do; the key is to do it
_before_ calling scsi_remove_host.
