Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Haavard Skinnemoen authored
Serial drivers using DMA (like the atmel_serial driver) tend to get very confused when the xmit buffer is flushed and nobody told them. They also tend to spew a lot of garbage since the DMA engine keeps running after the buffer is flushed and possibly refilled with unrelated data. This patch adds a new flush_buffer operation to the uart_ops struct, along with a call to it from uart_flush_buffer() right after the xmit buffer has been cleared. The driver can implement this in order to syncronize its internal DMA state with the xmit buffer when the buffer is flushed.

make function tracing more robust: do not trace library functions. We've already got a sizable list of exceptions: ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE # Do not profile string.o, since it may be used in early boot or vdso CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg # Also do not profile any debug utilities CFLAGS_REMOVE_spinlock_debug.o = -pg CFLAGS_REMOVE_list_debug.o = -pg CFLAGS_REMOVE_debugobjects.o = -pg CFLAGS_REMOVE_find_next_bit.o = -pg CFLAGS_REMOVE_cpumask.o = -pg CFLAGS_REMOVE_bitmap.o = -pg endif ... and the pattern has been that random library functionality showed up in ftrace's critical path (outside of its recursion check), causing hard to debug lockups. So be a bit defensive about it and exclude all lib/*.o functions by default. It's not that they are overly interesting for tracing purposes anyway. Specific ones can still be traced, in an opt-in manner. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Compiling a kernel with allmodconfig or allyesconfig results in tons of gcc warnings, because the default maximum stacksize from which on gcc will emit a warning is just 256 bytes.

This fixes an arcane bug that we think was a regression introduced by commit b2b2cbc4. When a parent ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap but they don't if it's using ptrace on them. When the parent thread later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left dangling. The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have done earlier if ptrace had not been in use. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

This reverts the effect of commit f2cc3eb1 "do_wait: fix security checks". That change reverted the effect of commit 73243284. The rationale for the original commit still stands. The inconsistent treatment of children hidden by ptrace was an unintended omission in the original change and in no way invalidates its purpose. This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait() (usually -EACCES) in place of -ECHILD when there are some children the caller would be able to wait for if not for the permission failure. A permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

ptrace no longer fiddles with the children/sibling links, and the old ptrace_children list is gone. Now ptrace, whether of one's own children or another's via PTRACE_ATTACH, just uses the new ptraced list instead. There should be no user-visible difference that matters. The only change is the order in which do_wait() sees multiple stopped children and stopped ptrace attachees. Since wait_task_stopped() was changed earlier so it no longer reorders the children list, we already know this won't cause any new problems. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>

This breaks out the guts of do_wait into three subfunctions. The control flow is less nonobvious without so much goto. do_wait_thread and ptrace_do_wait contain the main work of the outer loop. wait_consider_task contains the main work of the inner loop.

This patch fixes a mmap_truncate bug which was found by ocfs2 test suite. In an ocfs2 cluster more than 1 node, run program mmap_truncate, which races mmap writes and truncates from multiple processes. While the test is running, a stat from another node forces writeout, causing an oops in ocfs2_get_block() because it sees a buffer to write which isn't allocated. This patch fixed the bug by clear dirty and uptodate bits in buffer, leave the buffer unmapped and return. Fix is suggested by Mark Fasheh, and I code up the patch.
