      xfs: fix locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit · bc990f5c
      Christoph Hellwig authored 
      

The locking in xfs_iget_cache_hit currently has numerous problems:

 - we clear the reclaim tag without i_flags_lock which protects
   modifications to it
 - we call inode_init_always which can sleep with pag_ici_lock
   held (this is oss.sgi.com BZ #819)
 - we acquire and drop i_flags_lock a lot and thus provide no
   consistency between the various flags we set/clear under it

This patch fixes all that with a major revamp of the locking in
the function.  The new version acquires i_flags_lock early and
only drops it once we need to call into inode_init_always or before
calling xfs_ilock.

This patch fixes a bug seen in the wild where we race modifying the
reclaim tag.

Fix the header files to define round_hint_to_min() and to define
mmap_min_addr_handler() in the !CONFIG_SECURITY case.

Built and tested with !CONFIG_SECURITY

      Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addr · 788084ab
      Eric Paris authored 
      

Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory
is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable.  This patch causes SELinux to
ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how
much space the LSM should protect.

The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux
permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by
CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR.

This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason
being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux
controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to
map some area of low memory.

      SELinux: call cap_file_mmap in selinux_file_mmap · 8cf948e7
      Eric Paris authored 
      

Currently SELinux does not check CAP_SYS_RAWIO in the file_mmap hook.  This
means there is no DAC check on the ability to mmap low addresses in the
memory space.  This function adds the DAC check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO while
maintaining the selinux check on mmap_zero.  This means that processes
which need to mmap low memory will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO and mmap_zero but will
NOT need the SELinux sys_rawio capability.

      Capabilities: move cap_file_mmap to commoncap.c · 9c0d9010
      Eric Paris authored 
      

Currently we duplicate the mmap_min_addr test in cap_file_mmap and in
security_file_mmap if !CONFIG_SECURITY.  This patch moves cap_file_mmap
into commoncap.c and then calls that function directly from
security_file_mmap ifndef CONFIG_SECURITY like all of the other capability
checks are done.

      ARM: Fix broken highmem support · dde5828f
      Russell King authored 
      Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased
vmalloc area.  However, none of this has any effect on the memory
layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped.
Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be
registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available
virtual mapping space.

The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning
of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size
(see commit 60296c71 for details on
this).

We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory,
while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem.

Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory
are not supported.  This is not a huge limitation since systems
relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory
with large holes.

[ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9e


  and be available  in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up
  of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage
  escaped testing somehow as well. -- Nico ]

      sh: sh7724 ddr self-refresh changes · 237674e0
      Magnus Damm authored 
      

This patch updates the SuperH Mobile sleep assembly code with
support for DBSC memory controller found in the sh7724 processor.

Without this fix the memory hooked up to the sh7724 processor
will never enter self-refresh mode before suspending to ram. The
effect of this is that the memory contents most likeley will be
lost upon resume which may or may not be what you want.

      sh: use in-soc KEYSC on se7724 · 9747e78b
      Magnus Damm authored 
      

This patch updates the Solution Engine 7724 board code to use
in-SoC KEYSC resources for the keyboard platform device. Using
the in-SoC key scan controller fixes a crash-during-resume issue.

Without this patch the KEYSC hardware block located in the board
specific FPGA is used together with an external IRQ which is
routed through the FPGA and handled by some board specific demux
code. This board specific FPGA interrupt code does not implement
desc->set_wake() so the enable_irq_wake() call in the sh_keysc
driver will fail at suspend-to-ram time and the disable_irq_wake()
will bomb out when resuming.

Changing the platform data to use the in-SoC KEYSC hardware makes
the se7724 board support code less special which is a good thing.
Also, the board specific KEYSC pin setup code selects in-SoC pin
functions already which makes the current FPGA platform device data
look like a typo.
