This patch fixes two places where we used plain 'x - PAGE_OFFSET' to achieve virtual to physical address convertions. This type of convertion is no more allowed since commit 6f284a2c. Reported-by:

Ray Lee reported, that on an UP kernel with "noapic" command line option set, the box locks hard during boot. Adding some debug printks revealed, that the last action on the box before stalling was "Send IPI" - a debug printk which was put into smp_send_timer_broadcast_ipi(). It seems that send_IPI_mask(mask, LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR) fails when "noapic" is set on the command line on an UP kernel. Aside of that it does not make much sense to trigger an interrupt instead of calling the function directly on the CPU which gets the PIT/HPET interrupt in case of broadcasting. Reported-by:

Roland McGrath authored
The segment register slots in struct pt_regs are padded to 32 bits. Some of these are stored with instructions like "pushl %es", which leaves the high 16 bits as they were. So the high bits of these fields in struct pt_regs contain kernel stack garbage. These bits are ignored by everything and never leak to user space, except in core dumps. The user struct pt_regs is always at the base of the thread's kernel stack and so it seems unlikely the information that leaks from here is ever worthwhile so as to be a security concern, but I'm not sure about that. It has been this way for ages; userland consumers of core dumps all mask off these high bits themselves. So it is not urgent. This change masks off the padding bits of the segment register slots in core dumps. ptrace already masks off these high bits, so this makes the values in core dumps consistent with what ptrace would report just before the process died. As I read the processor manuals, the cs and ss values will always be padded with zero bits rather than stack garbage. But unlike "pushl %es", this is not simple to test with a userland program. So I added the two instructions rather than wonder if they are really never necessary. I think that x86_64 does not have this problem (for either 32-bit or 64-bit processes). It only uses "mov" instructions from segment registers, which zero-extend. Signed-off-by:

Fix the /proc/pid/stat representation of executable boundaries. It should show the bounds of the executable, but instead shows the bounds of the loader. Before the patch is applied, the bug can be seen by examining, say, inetd: # ps | grep inetd 610 root 0 S /usr/sbin/inetd -i # cat /proc/610/maps c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3180000-c31dede4 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582179 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.28.so c328c000-c328ea00 rw-p 00008000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3290000-c329b6c0 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c32a0000-c32c0000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 c32d4000-c32d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3394000-c3398000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3458000-c345f464 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c3470000-c34748f8 rw-p 00004000 00:0b 16384612 /usr/sbin/inetd c34cc000-c34d0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d4000-c34d8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c34d8000-c34dc000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 # cat /proc/610/stat 610 (inetd) S 1 610 610 0 -1 256 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 19 0 1 0 94392000718 950272 0 4294967295 3233480704 3233523592 3274440352 3274439976 3273467584 0 0 4096 90115 3221712796 0 0 17 0 0 0 0 The code boundaries are 3233480704 to 3233523592, which are: (gdb) p/x 3233480704 $1 = 0xc0bb0000 (gdb) p/x 3233523592 $2 = 0xc0bba788 Which corresponds to this line in the maps file: c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so Which is wrong.

It turned out that it is almost impossible to trust ACPI, BIOS & Co. regarding the C states. This was the reason to switch the local apic timer off in C2 state already. OTOH there are sane and well behaving systems, which get punished by that decision. Allow the user to confirm that the local apic timer is trustworthy in C2 state. This keeps the default behaviour on the safe side. Signed-off-by:

lockdep's data shouldn't be used when debug_locks == 0 because it's not updated after this, so it's more misleading than helpful. PS: probably lockdep's current-> fields should be reset after it turns debug_locks off: so, after printing a bug report, but before return from exported functions, but there are really a lot of these possibilities (e.g. after DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON), so, something could be missed. (Of course direct use of this fields isn't recommended either.) Reported-by:
