Many of the syscalls mentioned in the audit code are not present for architectures that implement only the "standard" set of Linux syscalls (e.g. openat, but not open, etc.). This change adds proper #ifdefs for all those syscalls. Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

They are only applicable for locally-homecached memory ranges, so change their names to {flush,finv}_buffer_local(). Change inv_buffer() to just do an mf instead of any kind of fancier barrier, since you're obviously not going to be waiting for anything once the local homecache is invalidated. Fix tilepro.c network driver not to bother calling finv_buffer when stopping the EPP, but just mf after memset to ensure that it will not see any packet data after we finish stopping; use finv_buffer_remote() when doing exit-time cleanup. This also fixes a (not very interesting) generic Linux build failure where drivers/scsi/st.c declares its own flush_buffer(). Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

User space code has been able to discover the static page size by including a special <hv/pagesize.h> file. In the current release, that file is now gone, and <asm/page.h> doesn't rely on it. The getpagesize() API is now the only way for userspace to get the page size. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This change adds a number of missing headers in asm (fb.h, parport.h, serial.h, and vga.h) using the minimal generic versions. It also adds a number of missing interfaces that showed up as build failures when trying to build various drivers not normally included in the "tile" distribution: ioremap_wc(), memset_io(), io{read,write}{16,32}be(), virt_to_bus(), bus_to_virt(), irq_canonicalize(), __pte(), __pgd(), and __pmd(). I also added a cast in virt_to_page() since not all callers pass a pointer. I fixed <asm/stat.h> to properly include a __KERNEL__ guard for the __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 symbol, and <asm/swab.h> to use __builtin_bswap32() even for our 64-bit architecture, since the same code is produced. I added an export for get_cycles(), since it's used in some modules. And I made <arch/spr_def.h> properly include the __KERNEL__ guard, even though it's not yet exported, since it likely will be soon. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This semantic was already true for atomic operations within the kernel, and this change makes it true for the fast atomic syscalls (__NR_cmpxchg and __NR_atomic_update) as well. Previously, user-space had to use the fast atomic syscalls exclusively to update memory, since raw stores could lose a race with the atomic update code even when the atomic update hadn't actually modified the value. With this change, we no longer write back the value to memory if it hasn't changed. This allows certain types of idioms in user space to work as expected, e.g. "atomic exchange" to acquire a spinlock, followed by a raw store of zero to release the lock.

This support is required for CONFIG_KEYS, NFSv4 kernel DNS, etc. The change is slightly more complex than the minimal thing, since I took advantage of having to go into the assembly code to just move a bunch of stuff into C code: specifically, the schedule(), do_async_page_fault(), do_signal(), and single_step_once() support, in addition to the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME support.

This change is the result of some work to make the backtrace code more shareable between kernel, libc, and gdb. For the kernel, some good effects are to eliminate the hacky "VirtualAddress" typedef in favor of "unsigned long", to eliminate a bunch of spurious kernel doc comments, to remove the dead "bt_read_memory" function, and to use "__tilegx__" in #ifdefs instead of "TILE_CHIP".

F15h and later use a portion of DRAM as a CC6 storage area. BIOS programs D18F1x[17C:140,7C:40] DRAM Base/Limit accordingly by subtracting the storage area from the DRAM limit setting. However, in order for edac to consider that part of DRAM too, we need to include it into the per-node range. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>

Now that the security modules can decide whether they support the dcache RCU walk or not it's possible to make selinux a bit more RCU friendly. The SELinux AVC and security server access decision code is RCU safe. A specific piece of the LSM audit code may not be RCU safe. This patch makes the VFS RCU walk retry if it would hit the non RCU safe chunk of code. It will normally just work under RCU. This is done simply by passing the VFS RCU state as a flag down into the avc_audit() code and returning ECHILD there if it would have an issue.

Now that the whole dcache_hash_bucket crap is gone, go all the way and also remove the weird locking layering violations for locking the hash buckets. Add hlist_bl_lock/unlock helpers to move the locking into the list abstraction instead of requiring each caller to open code it. After all allowing for the bit locks is the whole point of these helpers over the plain hlist variant.

When we are waiting for the bit-lock to be released, and are looping over the 'cpu_relax()' should not be doing anything else - otherwise we miss the point of trying to do the whole 'cpu_relax()'. Do the preemption enable/disable around the loop, rather than inside of it. Noticed when I was looking at the code generation for the dcache __d_drop usage, and the code just looked very odd.

After 57db4e8d changed eCryptfs to write-back caching, eCryptfs page writeback updates the lower inode times due to the use of vfs_write() on the lower file. To preserve inode metadata changes, such as 'cp -p' does with utimensat(), we need to flush all dirty pages early in ecryptfs_setattr() so that the user-updated lower inode metadata isn't clobbered later in writeback. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33372Reported-by: Rocko <rockorequin@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup, eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to delete through the eCryptfs mount. If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this adds minimal performance overhead. This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be fixed in the open() or setattr() paths. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509180 Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

If our space cache is wrong, we do the right thing and free up everything that we loaded, however we don't reset the total_bitmaps counter or the thresholds or anything. So in btrfs_remove_free_space_cache make sure to call free_bitmap() if it's a bitmap, this will keep us from panicing when we check to make sure we don't have too many bitmaps.

For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first lookup through the lifetime of the inode. This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the term persistent file are changed to lower file. Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it. This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3 client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs inode is destroyed.
