A few tiny cleanups for arch/sparc/kernel/ptrace.c::do_ptrace post the big verify_area/access_ok cleanup. 'ret' shadows a variable of the same name in the enclosing scope, rename it. The assignment of -EFAULT to 'i' exactely mirrors what the old verify_area code did, but that was only to use 'i' to check the return value of verify_area. Now that we check access_ok directly and 'i' is initialized in the for loop a few lines below anyway, the asignment of -EFAULT to i is bogus, just pass pass EFAULT directly as the second arg to pt_error_return. Also a few tiny whitespace cleanups - 'if ()' vs 'if()'. Signed-off-by:

Improve readability after verify_area to access_ok conversion. The new code was pretty ugly - this should be a bit better. Signed-off-by:

The previous 9 patches should take care of converting all callers of verify_area into access_ok, so now it's time to deprecate verify_area all over so noone gets tempted to use it in new code - this patch does that. Eventually when this has been deprecated for a while I'll send patches to completely remove the function (thoughts on how long it should be deprecated first are welcome). Signed-off-by:

Allow admin to enable only some of the Magic-Sysrq functions. This allows admin to disable sysrq functions he considers dangerous (e.g. sending kill signal, remounting fs RO) while keeping the possibility to use the others (e.g. debug deadlocks by dumps of processes etc.). Signed-off-by:

From: <mjg59@scrf.ucam.org> When using a fully modularized kernel it is necessary to activate resume manually as the device node might not be available during kernel init. This patch implements a new sysfs attribute '/sys/power/resume' which allows for manual activation of software resume. When read from it prints the configured resume device in 'major:minor' format. When written to it expects a device in 'major:minor' format. This device is then checked for a suspended image and resume is started if a valid image is found. The original functionality is left in place. It should be used from initramfs, or with care. Signed-off-by:

The following patch is designed to fix a problem in the current implementation of swsusp in mainline kernels. Namely, swsusp uses an array of page backup entries (aka pagedir) to store pointers to memory pages that must be saved during suspend and restored during resume. Unfortunately, the pagedir has to be located in a contiguous chunk of memory and it sometimes turns out that an 8-order or even 9-order allocation is needed for this purpose. It sometimes is impossible to get such an allocation and swsusp may fail during either suspend or resume due to the lack of memory, although theoretically there is enough free memory for it to succeed. Moreover, swsusp is more likely to fail for this reason during resume, which means that it may fail during resume after a successful suspend (this actually has happened for some people, including me :-)) and this, potentially, may lead to the loss of data. The problem is fixed by replacing the pagedir with a linklist so that high-order memory allocations are avoided (the patches make swsusp use only 0-order allocations). Unfortunately this means that it's necessary to change assembly routines used to restore the image after it's been loaded from swap so that they walk the list instead of walking the array. This patch makes swsusp allocate only individual pages during resume. it contains the necessary changes to the assembly routines etc. for i386 and x86-64. Signed-off-by:

When I booted my new 720 on a kernel configured for NUMA, I received the following during bootup: WARNING: Unexpected node layout: region start 44000000 length 2000000 NUMA is disabled This is due to memory 'holes' within nodes. If such holes are encountered, then NUMA is disabled. The following patch adds support for such configurations. This patch gets the cell sizes before extracting the cells. I have made this change to existing code in the file, as well as the code I added. Signed-off-by:

Some Book-E implementations (e500) do not implement the userland load/store string instructions. Apparently these instructions are rather painful to implement do to the fact that they modify the destination register differently then ever other instruction. Matt did the inital work some time ago, and I finally got around to cleaning it up. Signed-off-by: Matt McClintock Signed-off-by:

We're currently not including sysv shared memory segments in coredumps. This patch intends to include any shared mapping whose target file has zero links. That covers sysv shm and MAP_ANON|MAP_SHARED mmap's (which I think are only ever useful if you want to share pages with a fork'd child). I think it also covers a regular file that was unlinked but is still mmap'd. It doesn't cover mapping of a tmpfs file like /dev/shm/foo, but those are still available to be seen after your program crashes, until reboot. Note that this still omits plenty of cases that the old code would include, such as all writable shared mappings of regular files. It also will include some arcane cases the old one wouldn't, like a read-only shared mapping of an unlinked file; that comes up e.g., for the text segment of a shared library or executable that was removed/renamed-over while still in use.

So, this patch started out with me trying to keep from passing contiguous, node-specific mem_map into free_area_init_node() and cousins. Instead, I relied on some calls to pfn_to_page(). This works fine and dandy when all you need is the pgdat->node_mem_map to do pfn_to_page(). However, the non-NUMA/DISCONTIG architectures use the real, global mem_map[] instead of a node_mem_map in the pfn_to_page() calculation. So, I ended up effectively trying to initialize mem_map from itself, when it was NULL. That was bad, and caused some very pretty colors on someone's screen when he tested it. So, I had to make sure to initialize the global mem_map[] before calling into free_area_init_node(). Then, I realized how many architectures do this on their own, and have comments like this: /* XXX: MRB-remove - this doesn't seem sane, should this be done somewhere else ?*/ mem_map = NODE_DATA(0)->node_mem_map; The following patch does what my first one did (don't pass mem_map into the init functions), incorporates Jesse Barnes' ia64 fixes on top of that, and gets rid of all but one of the global mem_map initializations (parisc is weird). It also magically removes more code than it adds. It could be smaller, but I shamelessly added some comments. Boot-tested on ppc64, i386 (NUMAQ, plain SMP, laptop), UML (i386).

This patch assumes that there is no valid usage of vmalloced_or_vmaped_page->lru. In such a case vm_struct->array could be eliminated. It saves some memory and simplifies code a bit. In vmap/vunmap case vm_struct->page_list is used only in map_vm_area(), so it is ok to do: addr1 = vmap(pages, count); addr2 = vmap(pages, count); ... vunmap(addr1); vunmap(addr2); Signed-off-by:
