This patch fixes the issue with HPET on some platforms. According to Vojtech Pavlik: The first write after writing TN_SETVAL to the config register sets the counter value, the second write sets the threshold. When you only do the first write you never set the threshold and interrupts won't be generated properly. Thanks to John Stultz and Andrew Walrond for reporting, root causing the issue and verifying this fix.

The 4 level pagetable code changed the exit_mmap code to rely on TASK_SIZE. On some architectures (eg ppc64 and ia64), this is a per task property and bad things can happen in certain circumstances when using it. It is possible for one task to end up "owning" an mm from another - we have seen this with the procfs code when process 1 accesses /proc/pid/cmdline of process 2 while it is exiting. Process 2 exits but does not tear its mm down. Later on process 1 finishes with the proc file and the mm gets torn down at this point. Now if process 1 was 32bit and process 2 was 64bit then we end up using a bad value for TASK_SIZE in exit_mmap. We only tear down part of the address space and leave half initialised pagetables and entries in the MMU etc. MM_VM_SIZE() was created for this purpose (and is used in the next line for tlb_finish_mmu), so use it. I moved the PGD round up of TASK_SIZE into the default MM_VM_SIZE.

Bad things can happen if a 32-bit process is the last user of a 64-bit mm. TASK_SIZE isn't a constant, and we can end up clearing page tables only up to the 32-bit TASK_SIZE instead of all the way. We should probably double-check every instance of TASK_SIZE or USER_PTRS_PER_PGD for this kind of problem. We should also double-check that MM_VM_SIZE() and other such things are correctly defined on all architectures. I already fixed ppc64 which let it stay as TASK_SIZE, and hence dependent on the _current_ context instead of the mm in the argument.

Bodo Stroesser authored
When a page fault occurs on an address below the stack-vma, UML tries to expand the stack. On i386 and x86_64, the failing address is compared to the current userspace stack pointer. If the failing address is below "esp-32" resp. "rsp-128", stack expansion is not allowed, and a SIGSEGV is given to the user. This patch makes UML behave like i386/x86_64.

Re-add some needed headers inclusion deleted in http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/cset@41e49628dGbOWX-bT9yZII4f19GT6A If you think it cannot make sense to include both <sys/ptrace.h> and <linux/ptrace.h> (as userspace process, i.e. host includes), go complaining with glibc, or follow the linux-abi includes idea. However, the compilation failure is possibly glibc-version (or better glibc includes version) related - what I now is that the failure happens on my system with a glibc 2.3.4 (from Gentoo). Also, fix the syscall table to both compile and have no empty slot (which could cause Oopses).

Fixes the math of both jiffies_to_usecs() and usecs_to_jiffies() which improperly assume the same rounding point -- 1,000 -- as jiffies_to_msecs() and msecs_to_jiffies(), when in fact it should be 1,000,000. Furthermore, the actual math of both functions is actually wrong and will lead to more than just rounding errors.

This fixes the selinux_inode_setattr hook function to honor the ATTR_FORCE flag, skipping any permission checking in that case. Otherwise, it is possible though unlikely for a denial from the hook to prevent proper updating, e.g. for remove_suid upon writing to a file. This would only occur if the process had write permission to a suid file but lacked setattr permission to it.

This fixes a race in the FRV arch's semaphore implementation. The same type of fixes were applied to the rw-semaphore implementations to fix the same races there. The race involved the on-stack record linked into the semaphore's queue by the down() executed by a process now sleeping on the semaphore going away and the sleeping task going away before the process that woke it up during up() processing had finished with those structures.
