The module parameters for xpram are not or in a wrong way parsed. The xpram module uses the module_param_array directive with an int parameter which causes the kernel to automatically parse the passed numbers. This will cause errors if arguments are omitted or cause wrong results if arguments have size qualifiers. Use module_param_array with charp and parse the arguments later.

futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic has the same bug as the other atomic futex operations: the operation needs to be done in the user address space, not the kernel address space. Add the missing sacf 256 & sacf 0. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Add a reg_mutex to prevent unregistering a subchannel before it has been registered. Since 2.6.17, we've seen oopses in kslowcrw when a device is found to be not operational during sense id when doing initial device recognition; it is not clear yet why that particular problem was not (yet) observed with earlier kernels...

We can't safely directly access an compat_alloc_user_space() pointer with the siginfo copy functions. Bounce it through the stack.

Add it for P4 model 6 - reported to work and have a similar PMU to earlier P4s. Add an p4force=1 module override parameter for future use. We had a discussion about that earlier - it's a trade off between the PMU staying compatible or not. I think the force parameter is a reasonable compromise.

Currently ia32 binaries behave differently with respect to enabling READ_IMPLIES_EXEC. On i386 a binary with the exec_stack flag set is executed with READ_IMPLIES_EXEC enabled as well. The same binary executes without READ_IMPLIES_EXEC on x86-64. This causes binaries that work on i386 to fail on x86-64 which goes somewhat against the whole 32 bit emulation idea. It has been argued that READ_IMPLIES_EXEC should not be enabled at all for binaries that have the exec_stack flag. Which is probably a valid point. However until this is clarified I think x86-64 should behave the same for ia32 binaries as i386. The following patch brings x86-64 in sync with i386 for ia32 binaries.

Disable lockdep debugging in two situations where the integrity of the kernel no longer is guaranteed: when oopsing and when hitting a tainting-condition. The goal is to not get weird lockdep traces that don't make sense or are otherwise undebuggable, to not waste time. Lockdep assumes that the previous state it knows about is valid to operate, which is why lockdep turns itself off after the first violation it reports, after that point it can no longer make that assumption. A kernel oops means that the integrity of the kernel compromised; in addition anything lockdep would report is of lesser importance than the oops. All the tainting conditions are of similar integrity-violating nature and also make debugging/diagnosing more difficult.

Currently most architectures either always build binfmt_elf32 in the kernel image or make it a boolean option. Only sparc64 and s390 allow to build it modularly. This patch turns the option into a boolean aswell because elf requires various symbols that shouldn't be available to modules. The most urgent one is tasklist_lock whos export this patch series kills, but there are others like force_sgi aswell. Note that sparc doesn't allow a modular 32bit a.out handler either, and that would be the more useful case as only few people want 32bit sunos compatibility and 99.9% of all sparc64 users need 32bit linux native elf support.

Currently the snsc driver uses force_sig to send init a SIGPWR when the system overheats. This patch switches it to kill_proc instead which has the following advantages: (1) gets rid of one of the last remaining tasklist_lock users in modular code (2) simplifies the snsc code significantly The downside is that an init implementation could in theory block SIGPWR and it would not get delivered. The sysvinit code used by all major distributions doesn't do this and blocking this signal in init would be a rather stupid thing to do.

- Switch from register_chrdev() to (register|alloc)_chrdev_region(). - use a cdev. This was intended for original patchset, but was overlooked. We use a single cdev for all pins (minor device-numbers), as gleaned from cs5535_gpio, and in contrast to whats currently done in scx200_gpio (which I'll fix soon) Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Fix module-init-func by repairing usage of platform_device_del/put in module-exit-func. IOW, it imitates Ingo's 'mishaps' patch, which fixed the module-init-func's undo handling. Also fixes lack of release_region to undo the earlier registration. Also starts to 'use a cdev' which was originally intended (its present in scx200_gpio). Code compiles and runs, exhibits a lesser error than previously. (re-register-chrdev fails) Since I had to add "include <linux/cdev.h>", I went ahead and made 2 tweaks that fell into diff-context-window: - remove include <linux/config.h> everyone's doing it - copyright updates - current date is 'wrong' Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
