2007-04-12[SPARC]: avoid CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX constantsRoland McGrath
I don't figure anyone really cares about SunOS syscall emulation, and I certainly don't. But I'm getting rid of uses of the OPEN_MAX and CHILD_MAX compile-time constant, and these are almost the only ones. OPEN_MAX is a bogus constant with no meaning about anything. The RLIMIT_NOFILE resource limit is what sysconf (_SC_OPEN_MAX) actually wants to return. The CHILD_MAX cases weren't actually using anything I want to get rid of, but I noticed that they are there and are wrong too. The CHILD_MAX value is not really unlimited as a -1 return from sysconf indicates. The RLIMIT_NPROC resource limit is what sysconf (_SC_CHILD_MAX) wants to return.

2006-12-08[PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty lockingPeter Zijlstra
Fix the locking of signal->tty. Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used by most other members of ->signal/->sighand. And unless we are 'current' or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway. (NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules) Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid. Otherwise the lifetime of ttys are governed by their open file handles. This leaves some holes for tty access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access). It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing. (NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info invocations) [schwidefsky@de.ibm.com: 3270 fix] [akpm@osdl.org: various post-viro fixes] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Cc: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Cc: "David S.

2006-10-02[PATCH] namespaces: utsname: switch to using uts namespacesSerge E. Hallyn
Replace references to system_utsname to the per-process uts namespace where appropriate. This includes things like uname. Changes: Per Eric Biederman's comments, use the per-process uts namespace for ELF_PLATFORM, sunrpc, and parts of net/ipv4/ipconfig.c [jdike@addtoit.com: UML fix] [clg@fr.ibm.com: cleanup] [akpm@osdl.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Serge E.

init_socksys() was marked __init but invoked from a non-__init function. Use the correct module_{init,exit}() faciltiies while we're here and eliminate some seriously bogus ifdefs. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-03-20[SPARC64]: Increase top of 32-bit process stack.David S. Miller
Put it one page below the top of the 32-bit address space. This gives us ~16MB more address space to work with. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-12-22[SPARC]: Kill CHILD_MAX.David S. Miller
It's definition is wrong (-1 means "no limit" not 999), only the Sparc SunOS/Solaris compat code uses it, so let's just kill it off completely from limits.h and all referencing code. Noticed by Ulrich Drepper. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[SPARC64]: More fully work around Spitfire Errata 51.David S. Miller
It appears that a memory barrier soon after a mispredicted branch, not just in the delay slot, can cause the hang condition of this cpu errata. So move them out-of-line, and explicitly put them into a "branch always, predict taken" delay slot which should fully kill this problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
