2009-09-23seq_file: constify seq_operationsJames Morris
Make all seq_operations structs const, to help mitigate against revectoring user-triggerable function pointers. This is derived from the grsecurity patch, although generated from scratch because it's simpler than extracting the changes from there.

The static code scanner "Parfait" reported this because pwm_config is only 3 bytes - pwm_config[3] is out of range. Since this code path is never called with ix == 3 (the device has no PWM4 output) this doesn't change anything in practice. But to encourage testing with Parfait, lets make the warning go away...

2009-09-23generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data locklessXiao Guangrong
This patch can remove spinlock from struct call_function_data, the reasons are below: 1: add a new interface for cpumask named cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(), it can atomically test and clear specific cpu, we can use it instead of cpumask_test_cpu() and cpumask_clear_cpu() and no need data->lock to protect those in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt(). 2: in smp_call_function_many(), after csd_lock() return, the current's cfd_data is deleted from call_function list, so it not have race between other cpus, then cfs_data is only used in smp_call_function_many() that must disable preemption and not from a hardware interrupthandler or from a bottom half handler to call, only the correspond cpu can use it, so it not have race in current cpu, no need cfs_data->lock to protect it. 3: after 1 and 2, cfs_data->lock is only use to protect cfs_data->refs in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt(), so we can define cfs_data->refs to atomic_t, and no need cfs_data->lock any more.

2009-09-23kmod: fix race in usermodehelper codeNeil Horman
The user mode helper code has a race in it. call_usermodehelper_exec() takes an allocated subprocess_info structure, which it passes to a workqueue, and then passes it to a kernel thread which it creates, after which it calls complete to signal to the caller of call_usermodehelper_exec() that it can free the subprocess_info struct. But since we use that structure in the created thread, we can't call complete from __call_usermodehelper(), which is where we create the kernel thread. We need to call complete() from within the kernel thread and then not use subprocess_info afterward in the case of UMH_WAIT_EXEC. Tested successfully by me.

2009-09-23poll/select: avoid arithmetic overflow in __estimate_accuracy()Guillaume Knispel
__estimate_accuracy() was prone to integer overflow, for example if *tv == {2147, 483648000} on a 32 bit computer (or even for delays as small as {429, 500000000} if the task is niced). Because the result was already forced between 0 and 100ms, the effect of the overflow was not too problematic, but the use of the hrtimer range feature was not optimal in overflow cases. This patch ensures that there can not be an integer overflow in this function.

On resume from suspend, the driver currently resets the logical state as if it was brought up from halt.

2009-09-22flex_array: introduce DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAYDavid Rientjes
FLEX_ARRAY_INIT(element_size, total_nr_elements) cannot determine if either parameter is valid, so flex arrays which are statically allocated with this interface can easily become corrupted or reference beyond its allocated memory. This removes FLEX_ARRAY_INIT() as a struct flex_array initializer since no initializer may perform the required checking. Instead, the array is now defined with a new interface: DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY(name, element_size, total_nr_elements) This may be prefixed with `static' for file scope. This interface includes compile-time checking of the parameters to ensure they are valid. Since the validity of both element_size and total_nr_elements depend on FLEX_ARRAY_BASE_SIZE and FLEX_ARRAY_PART_SIZE, the kernel build will fail if either of these predefined values changes such that the array parameters are no longer valid. Since BUILD_BUG_ON() requires compile time constants, several of the static inline functions that were once local to lib/flex_array.c had to be moved to include/linux/flex_array.h.

2009-09-22flex_array: add flex_array_shrink functionDavid Rientjes
Add a new function to the flex_array API: int flex_array_shrink(struct flex_array *fa) This function will free all unused second-level pages. Since elements are now poisoned if they are not allocated with __GFP_ZERO, it's possible to identify parts that consist solely of unused elements. flex_array_shrink() returns the number of pages freed.

2009-09-22flex_array: poison free elementsDavid Rientjes
Newly initialized flex_array's and/or flex_array_part's are now poisoned with a new poison value, FLEX_ARRAY_FREE. It's value is similar to POISON_FREE used in the various slab allocators, but is different to distinguish between flex array's poisoned kmem and slab allocator poisoned kmem. This will allow us to identify flex_array_part's that only contain free elements (and free them with an addition to the flex_array API). This could also be extended in the future to identify `get' uses on elements that have not been `put'. If __GFP_ZERO is passed for a part's gfp mask, the poisoning is avoided. These elements are considered to be in-use since they have been initialized.

Add a new function to the flex_array API: int flex_array_clear(struct flex_array *fa, unsigned int element_nr) This function will zero the element at element_nr in the flex_array. Although this is equivalent to using flex_array_put() and passing a pointer to zero'd memory, flex_array_clear() does not require such a pointer to memory that would most likely need to be allocated on the caller's stack which could be significantly large depending on element_size.

2009-09-22scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add maintainers in order listed in matched sectionJoe Perches
Previous behavior was "bottom-up" in each section from the pattern "F:" entry that matched. Now information is entered into the various lists in the "as entered" order for each matched section. This also allows the F: entry to be put anywhere in a section, not just as the last entries in the section. And a couple of improvements: Don't alphabetically sort before outputting the matched scm, status, subsystem and web sections. Ignore content after a single email address so these entries are acceptable M: name <address> whatever other comment And a fix: Make an M: entry without a name again use the name from an immediately preceding P: line if it exists.

2009-09-22scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --remove-duplicatesJoe Perches
Allow control over the elimination of duplicate email names and addresses --remove-duplicates will use the first email name or address presented --noremove-duplicates will emit all names and addresses --remove-duplicates is enabled by default For instance: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f --noremove-duplicates drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Using --remove-duplicates could eliminate multiple maintainers that share the same name but not the same email address.
