If the task that initiated the sillyrename ends up being killed by a fatal signal, then it will eventually return back to userspace and end up releasing the i_mutex. d_move however needs to be done while holding the i_mutex. Instead of using d_move here, just unhash the old and new dentries to prevent them from being found by lookups. With this change though, the dentries are now incorrect post-rename and do not reflect the actual name of the file on the server. I'm proceeding under the assumption that since they are unhashed that this isn't really a problem. In order for the sillydelete to still work though, the dname must be copied earlier when setting up the sillydelete info, and the name must be recopied if the sillydelete info has to be moved to a new dentry.

<linux/kernel.h> is needed for min_t. The old version happened to work on x86 because <asm/unaligned.h> indirectly includes <linux/kernel.h>, but it didn't work on ARM. <linux/kernel.h> includes <asm/byteorder.h> so it's not necessary to include it explicitly anymore.

The commit f02e8a65 sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section. The sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker. Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux (already linked) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure. Thanks to Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@gmail.com> and Anders Kaseorg <andersk@ksplice.com> for providing useful suggestions about code.

Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules. This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for built-in ones. To allow access to the built-in modules we need to re-trigger all module load events that happened before any userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers. This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files to all module entries.

IOMMU interrupt remapping support provides a further layer of isolation for device assignment by preventing arbitrary interrupt block DMA writes by a malicious guest from reaching the host. By default, we should require that the platform provides interrupt remapping support, with an opt-in mechanism for existing behavior. Both AMD IOMMU and Intel VT-d2 hardware support interrupt remapping, however we currently only have software support on the Intel side. Users wishing to re-enable device assignment when interrupt remapping is not supported on the platform can use the "allow_unsafe_assigned_interrupts=1" module option.

The idea is from Avi: | We could cache the result of a miss in an spte by using a reserved bit, and | checking the page fault error code (or seeing if we get an ept violation or | ept misconfiguration), so if we get repeated mmio on a page, we don't need to | search the slot list/tree. | (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/22/221) When the page fault is caused by mmio, we cache the info in the shadow page table, and also set the reserved bits in the shadow page table, so if the mmio is caused again, we can quickly identify it and emulate it directly Searching mmio gfn in memslots is heavy since we need to walk all memeslots, it can be reduced by this feature, and also avoid walking guest page table for soft mmu.

This patch extends the DASD statistics to allow for a more detailed analysis of DASD I/O operations. In particular we want the statistics to provide answers to the following questions: - How many requests used a PAV alias? - How many requests used High Performance FICON? - How do read request perform versus write requests? The existing DASD statistics interface has several shortcomings - The interface for global data is a formatted text table in procfs (/proc/dasd/statistics). The layout is meant for human readers and is not to easy to parse. If values get to large for the table layout, they get scaled down. - The statistics which are collected per block device can be accessed via an ioctl interface, which can only be extended by defining a new ioctl. - There is no statistics interface for individual PAV base and alias devices. To overcome theses shortcomings we create a new DASD statistics interface in debugfs. This interface will contain one entry for global data, one per DASD block device, and one per DASD base and alias device. Each file contains the statistic data in easy to parse name/value and name/array pairs. The existing interfaces will remain functional, but they will not be extended.
