arch/tile: big-endian: properly bswap instruction bundles when backtracing

2012-06-18T17:11:21Z

Instruction bundles are always little-endian, even when running in big-endian mode. I missed this internal bug fix when cherry-picking the big-endian code to return to the community. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

tile: fix bug in get_user() for 4-byte values

2012-06-16T20:56:13Z

The definition of 32-bit values in the 64-bit tilegx architecture is that they should be sign-extended regardless of whether they are considered signed or unsigned by the compiler. Accordingly, we need to use an "ld4s" rather than "ld4u" to load and sign-extend for get_user(). This fixes glibc bug 14238 (see http://sourceware.org/bugzilla), introduced during the 3.5 merge window. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

tile: add #include to unbreak build after generic init_task conversion

2012-06-06T15:29:35Z

Some code was moved from init_task.c to setup.c but the appropriate header needed to be moved as well. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

tile: remove cpu_idle_on_new_stack

2012-06-06T15:29:31Z

This routine isn't used unless CONFIG_HOMECACHE is enabled, which isn't even available as a public configuration option yet. Since it no longer links correctly in 3.4, just remove it for now. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

Pull vfs changes from Al Viro. "A lot of misc stuff. The obvious groups: * Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of ->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for all work in that area. * ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in general. * ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in mm/cleancache.c gone. * assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user) * parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts) * ->update_time() work from Josef. * other bits and pieces all over the place. Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/" Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the 'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby). * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (95 commits) nfs: don't open in ->d_revalidate vfs: retry last component if opening stale dentry vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): don't throw away file on error vfs: nameidata_to_filp(): inline __dentry_open() vfs: do_dentry_open(): don't put filp vfs: split __dentry_open() vfs: do_last() common post lookup vfs: do_last(): add audit_inode before open vfs: do_last(): only return EISDIR for O_CREAT vfs: do_last(): check LOOKUP_DIRECTORY vfs: do_last(): make ENOENT exit RCU safe vfs: make follow_link check RCU safe vfs: do_last(): use inode variable vfs: do_last(): inline walk_component() vfs: do_last(): make exit RCU safe vfs: split do_lookup() Btrfs: move over to use ->update_time fs: introduce inode operation ->update_time reiserfs: get rid of resierfs_sync_super reiserfs: mark the superblock as dirty a bit later ...

new helper: signal_delivered()

2012-06-01T16:58:52Z

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

most of set_current_blocked() callers want SIGKILL/SIGSTOP removed from set

2012-06-01T16:58:51Z

Only 3 out of 63 do not. Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(), added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched open-coded instances to it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

set_restore_sigmask() is never called without SIGPENDING (and never should be)
