2007-07-19mm: variable length argument supportOllie Wild
Remove the arg+env limit of MAX_ARG_PAGES by copying the strings directly from the old mm into the new mm. We create the new mm before the binfmt code runs, and place the new stack at the very top of the address space. Once the binfmt code runs and figures out where the stack should be, we move it downwards. It is a bit peculiar in that we have one task with two mm's, one of which is inactive.

2007-03-23[PATCH] FDPIC: fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundariesDavid Howells
Fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundaries. It should show the bounds of the executable, but instead shows the bounds of the loader. Before the patch is applied, the bug can be seen by examining, say, inetd: # ps | grep inetd 610 root 0 S /usr/sbin/inetd -i # cat /proc/610/maps c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3180000-c31dede4 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582179 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.28.so c328c000-c328ea00 rw-p 00008000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3290000-c329b6c0 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c32a0000-c32c0000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 c32d4000-c32d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3394000-c3398000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c3470000-c34748f8 rw-p 00004000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c34cc000-c34d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d4000-c34d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d8000-c34dc000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 # cat /proc/610/stat 610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 19 0 1 0 94392000718 950272 0 4294967295 3233480704 3233523592 3274440352 3274439976 3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 The code boundaries are 3233480704 to 3233523592, which are: (gdb) p/x 3233480704 $1 = 0xc0bb0000 (gdb) p/x 3233523592 $2 = 0xc0bba788 Which corresponds to this line in the maps file: c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so Which is wrong. After the patch is applied, the maps file is pretty much identical (there's some minor shuffling of the location of some of the anonymous VMAs), but the stat file is now: # cat /proc/610/stat 610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 7 0 0 18 0 1 0 94392000722 950272 0 4294967295 3276111872 3276141668 3274440352 3274439976 3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 The code boundaries are then 3276111872 to 3276141668, which are: (gdb) p/x 3276111872 $1 = 0xc3458000 (gdb) p/x 3276141668 $2 = 0xc345f464 And these correspond to this line in the maps file instead: c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd Which is now correct.

This patch changes struct file to use struct path instead of having independent pointers to struct dentry and struct vfsmount, and converts all users of f_{dentry,vfsmnt} in fs/ to use f_path.{dentry,mnt}. Additionally, it adds two #define's to make the transition easier for users of the f_dentry and f_vfsmnt.

do_each_thread() is rcu-safe, and all tasks which use this ->mm must sleep in wait_for_completion(&mm->core_done) at this point, so we can use RCU locks.

2006-07-10[PATCH] FDPIC: Adjust the ELF-FDPIC driver to conform more to the CodingStyleDavid Howells
Adjust the ELF-FDPIC binfmt driver to conform much more to the CodingStyle, silly though it may be. Further changes: (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're unsigned long already). (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise them back together. (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was actually allocated for the stack. (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

2005-10-29[PATCH] mm: mm_init set_mm_countersHugh Dickins
How is anon_rss initialized? In dup_mmap, and by mm_alloc's memset; but that's not so good if an mm_counter_t is a special type. And how is rss initialized? By set_mm_counter, all over the place. Come on, we just need to initialize them both at once by set_mm_counter in mm_init (which follows the memcpy when forking).

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!
