      [PATCH] remove sys_security · 11fd59c5
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      I've been auditing the LSM stuff a bit more..
      
      They have registered an implemented a syscall, sys_security
      that does nothing but switch into the individual modules
      based on the first argument, i.e. it's ioctl() switching
      on the security module instead of device node.  Yuck.
      
      Patch below removes it (no intree users), maybe selinux/etc
      folks should send their actual syscall for review instead..

      PPC32: miscellanous small fixes. · ffc422b7
      Paul Mackerras authored
      Rename print_backtrace to show_stack and improve it, remove the
      #if 0 around set_fpexc mode and add get_fpexc_mode, add the
      __NR_security define and reserve syscall 225 for Tux.

      [PATCH] Futexes IV (Fast Lightweight Userspace Semaphores) · 882ad449
      Rusty Russell authored
      Fast user-space mutex implementation, allowing user space to do all
      of the normal handling, with a minimal fallback to kernel space for
      when there is lock contention.
      
      The kernel space implementation does not keep any per-lock data
      structures, but instead does a fast hash on the physical page and offset
      of the user-space lock when contended.  Thus no build/teardown costs, or
      any scalability costs wrt metadata.
      
      Updated syscall numbers for 2.5.6, and changed FUTEX_UP/DOWN definitions
      to be more logical for future expansions (eg.  r/w).

      PPC update for the recent changes to the pgd/pmd/pte functions. · 36f581c6
      Paul Mackerras authored
      This implements ptes-in-highmem for PPC, removes the quicklist
      and zero-page stuff.  PTEs in highmem on SMP turned out to need
      some significant changes to avoid deadlocks on the hash_table_lock
      (now renamed to mmu_hash_lock).  The PMDs now contain the physical
      address of the PTE page rather than the virtual address.
      Anything that takes the mmu_hash_lock now operates with the DMMU
      off to avoid MMU hash-table misses.

      [PATCH] Third version of signal changes for thread groups · 676952b9
      Dave McCracken authored
      During the course of developing our pthread library (the NGPT pthread
      library) it became clear we needed some kernel support for handling
      signals.  This patch helps the library by redirecting all signals sent
      to tasks in a thread group to the thread group leader.  It also defines
      the tkill() system call so the library can signal a specific task if
      necessary. 
      
      Given that as far as I know NGPT is the only user of thread groups, and
      that this change would benefit any other user of thread groups, I'm
      submitting this for inclusion in the 2.5 kernel.
      
      Note that this patch also adds support for sys_gettid() for the
      architectures that don't have it.  While this could have been split into a
      spearate patch, it would create conflicts since this patch also adds
      sys_tkill(), so I felt it was cleaner to leave them together.
