Impact: improve backtrace quality avoid the confusion in call trace because of the lack of padding at the tail of function. When do_exit gets called, the return address behind call instruction is pushed into stack. If something get wrong in do_exit, for x86_64, the entry "kernel_execve +0x00/0xXX" rather than "child_rip +0xYY/0xZZ" is in the call trace. That looks confusing, so add a u2d to make the return address still part of the original call site. (This also catches any instances of us returning from that function somehow.)

Impact: make stack overflow debug check and printout narrower stack_overflow_check() should consider the stack usage of pt_regs, and thus it could warn us in advance. Additionally, it looks better for the warning time to start at INITIAL_JIFFIES. Assuming that rsp gets close to the check point before interrupt arrives: when interrupt really happens, thread_info will be partly overrode.

Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode: * Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle. * Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference vector. Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode as the default. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not being used. If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes the interrupt to become unusable. This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded and reloaded repeatedly.

Fix a regression reported by Max Kellermann whereby kernel profiling showed that his clients were spending 45% of their time in rpcauth_lookup_credcache. It turns out that although his processes had identical uid/gid/groups, generic_match() was failing to detect this, because the task->group_info pointers were not shared. This again lead to the creation of a huge number of identical credentials at the RPC layer. The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info if the actual pointers are not identical.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory: if (addr < 0) break; Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value "sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator. Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs). This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

If a connection with open file handles has gone down and come back up and reconnected without reopening the file handle yet, do not attempt to send an SMB close request for this handle in cifs_close. We were checking for the connection being invalid in cifs_close but since the connection may have been reconnected we also need to check whether the file handle was marked invalid (otherwise we could close the wrong file handle by accident).
