Old code used to set regs->r0 and regs->r19 to force the right return value. Leaving that after switch to ERESTARTNOHAND was a Bad Idea(tm), since now that screws the restart - if we hit the case when get_signal_to_deliver() returns 0, we will step back to syscall insn, with v0 set to EINTR and a3 to 1. The latter won't matter, since EINTR is 4, aka __NR_write. Testcase: #include <signal.h> #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> main() { sigset_t mask; sigemptyset(&mask); sigaddset(&mask, SIGCONT); sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL); kill(0, SIGCONT); syscall(__NR_sigsuspend, 1, "b0rken\n", 7); } results on alpha in immediate message to stdout... Fix is obvious; moreover, since we don't need regs anymore, we can switch to normal prototypes for these guys and lose the wrappers. Even better, rt_sigsuspend() is identical to generic version in kernel/signal.c now.

Pending work from the performance event subsystem is executed in the timer interrupt. This patch shifts the call to perf_event_do_pending() before the call to update_process_times() as the latter may call back into the perf event subsystem and it is prudent to have the pending work executed first.

Alpha SMP flush_icache_user_range() is implemented as an inline function inside include/asm/cacheflush.h. It dereferences @current but doesn't include linux/sched.h and thus causes build failure if linux/sched.h wasn't included previously. Fix it by including the needed header file explicitly.

If a signal hits us outside of a syscall and another gets delivered when we are in sigreturn (e.g. because it had been in sa_mask for the first one and got sent to us while we'd been in the first handler), we have a chance of returning from the second handler to location one insn prior to where we ought to return. If r0 happens to contain -513 (-ERESTARTNOINTR), sigreturn will get confused into doing restart syscall song and dance. Incredible joy to debug, since it manifests as random, infrequent and very hard to reproduce double execution of instructions in userland code... The fix is simple - mark it "don't bother with restarts" in wrapper, i.e. set r8 to 0 in sys_sigreturn and sys_rt_sigreturn wrappers, suppressing the syscall restart handling on return from these guys. They can't legitimately return a restart-worthy error anyway. Testcase: #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <errno.h> void f(int n) { __asm__ __volatile__( "ldr r0, [%0]\n" "b 1f\n" "b 2f\n" "1:b .\n" "2:\n" : : "r"(&n)); } void handler1(int sig) { } void handler2(int sig) { raise(1); } void handler3(int sig) { exit(0); } main() { struct sigaction s = {.sa_handler = handler2}; struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} }; struct itimerval t2 = { .it_value = {2} }; signal(1, handler1); sigemptyset(&s.sa_mask); sigaddset(&s.sa_mask, 1); sigaction(SIGALRM, &s, NULL); signal(SIGVTALRM, handler3); setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &t1, NULL); setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &t2, NULL); f(-513); /* -ERESTARTNOINTR */ write(1, "buggered\n", 9); return 1; } Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If an array with 1.x metadata is assembled with the last disk missing, md doesn't properly record the fact that the disk was missing. This is unlikely to cause a real problem as the event count will be different to the count on the missing disk so it won't be included in the array. However it could still cause confusion. So make sure we clear all the relevant slots, not just the early ones. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Now that we depend on md_update_sb to clear variable bits in mddev->flags (rather than trying not to set them) it is important to always call md_update_sb when appropriate. md_check_recovery has this job but explicitly avoids it for ->external metadata arrays. This is not longer appropraite, or needed. However we do want to avoid taking the mddev lock if only MD_CHANGE_PENDING is set as that is not cleared by md_update_sb for external-metadata arrays.

drivers/firewire/nosy* is a stand-alone driver that does not depend on CONFIG_FIREWIRE. Hence let make descend into drivers/firewire/ also if that option is off. The stand-alone driver drivers/ieee1394/init_ohci1394_dma* will soon be moved into drivers/firewire/ too and will require the same makefile fix. Side effect: As mentioned in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586172#c24 this influences the order in which either firewire-ohci or ohci1394 is going to be bound to an OHCI-1394 controller in case of a modular build of both drivers if no modprobe blacklist entries are configured. However, a user of such a setup cannot expect deterministic behavior anyway. The Kconfig help and the migration guide at ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org recommend blacklist entries when a dual IEEE 1394 stack build is being used. (The coexistence period of the two stacks is planned to end soon.) Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
