groups: move code to kernel/groups.c

2009-06-17T02:47:48Z

Move supplementary groups implementation to kernel/groups.c . kernel/sys.c already accumulated quite a few random stuff. Do strictly copy/paste + add required headers to compile. Compile-tested on many configs and archs. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Cc: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Merge branch 'linus' into perfcounters/core

2009-04-29T12:47:05Z

Merge reason: This brach was on -rc1, refresh it to almost-rc4 to pick up the latest upstream fixes. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

kernel/sys.c: clean up sys_shutdown exit path

2009-04-13T22:04:32Z

Impact: cleanup, fix Clean up sys_shutdown() exit path. Factor out common code. Return correct error code instead of always 0 on failure. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6: Remove two unneeded exports and make two symbols static in fs/mpage.c Cleanup after commit 585d3bc06f4ca57f975a5a1f698f65a45ea66225 Trim includes of fdtable.h Don't crap into descriptor table in binfmt_som Trim includes in binfmt_elf Don't mess with descriptor table in load_elf_binary() Get rid of indirect include of fs_struct.h New helper - current_umask() check_unsafe_exec() doesn't care about signal handlers sharing New locking/refcounting for fs_struct Take fs_struct handling to new file (fs/fs_struct.c) Get rid of bumping fs_struct refcount in pivot_root(2) Kill unsharing fs_struct in __set_personality()

pids: kill signal_struct-> pgrp/session and friends

2009-04-03T02:05:02Z

We are wasting 2 words in signal_struct without any reason to implement task_pgrp_nr() and task_session_nr(). task_session_nr() has no callers since 2e2ba22ea4fd4bb85f0fa37c521066db6775cbef, we can remove it. task_pgrp_nr() is still (I believe wrongly) used in fs/autofsX and fs/coda. This patch reimplements task_pgrp_nr() via task_pgrp_nr_ns(), and kills __pgrp/__session and the related helpers. The change in drivers/char/tty_io.c is cosmetic, but hopefully makes sense anyway.

Get rid of indirect include of fs_struct.h

2009-04-01T03:00:27Z

Don't pull it in sched.h; very few files actually need it and those can include directly. sched.h itself only needs forward declaration of struct fs_struct; Signed-off-by: Al Viro

sched: don't allow setuid to succeed if the user does not have rt bandwidth

2009-02-27T10:11:53Z

Impact: fix hung task with certain (non-default) rt-limit settings Corey Hickey reported that on using setuid to change the uid of a rt process, the process would be unkillable and not be running. This is because there was no rt runtime for that user group. Add in a check to see if a user can attach an rt task to its task group. On failure, return EINVAL, which is also returned in CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED. Reported-by: Corey Hickey Signed-off-by: Dhaval Giani Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar
