The existing asm-generic/stat.h specifies st_mtime, etc., as a 32-value, and works well for 32-bit architectures (currently microblaze, score, and 32-bit tile). However, for 64-bit architectures it isn't sufficient to return 32 bits of time_t; this isn't good insurance against the 2037 rollover. (It also makes glibc support less convenient, since we can't use glibc's handy STAT_IS_KERNEL_STAT mode.) This change extends the two "timespec" fields for each of the three atime, mtime, and ctime fields from "int" to "long". As a result, on 32-bit platforms nothing changes, and 64-bit platforms will now work as expected. The only wrinkle is 32-bit userspace under 64-bit kernels taking advantage of COMPAT mode. For these, we leave the "struct stat64" definitions with the "int" versions of the time_t and nsec fields, so that architectures can implement compat_sys_stat64() and friends with sys_stat64(), etc., and get the expected 32-bit structure layout. This requires a field-by-field copy in the kernel, implemented by the code guarded under __ARCH_WANT_STAT64. This does mean that the shape of the "struct stat" and "struct stat64" structures is different on a 64-bit kernel, but only one of the two structures should ever be used by any given process: "struct stat" is meant for 64-bit userspace only, and "struct stat64" for 32-bit userspace only. (On a 32-bit kernel the two structures continue to have the same shape, since "long" is 32 bits.) The alternative is keeping the two structures the same shape on 64-bit kernels, which means a 64-bit time_t in "struct stat64" for 32-bit processes. This is a little unnatural since 32-bit userspace can't do anything with 64 bits of time_t information, since time_t is just "long", not "int64_t"; and in any case 32-bit userspace might expect to be running under a 32-bit kernel, which can't provide the high 32 bits anyway. In the case of a 32-bit kernel we'd then be extending the kernel's 32-bit time_t to 64 bits, then truncating it back to 32 bits again in userspace, for no particular reason. And, as mentioned above, if we have 64-bit time_t for 32-bit processes we can't easily use glibc's STAT_IS_KERNEL_STAT, since glibc's stat structure requires an embedded "struct timespec", which is a pair of "long" (32-bit) values in a 32-bit userspace. "Inventive" solutions are possible, but are pretty hacky. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The kernel was allowing any component of the pt_regs to be updated either by signal handlers writing to the stack, or by processes writing via PTRACE_POKEUSR or PTRACE_SETREGS, which meant they could set their PL up from 0 to 1 and get access to kernel code and data (or, in practice, cause a kernel panic). We now always reset the ex1 field, allowing the user to set their ICS bit only. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This change is modelled on similar fixes for other architectures. The pt_regs "faultnum" member is set to the trap (fault) number that caused us to enter the kernel, and is INT_SWINT_1 for the syscall software interrupt. We already supported a pseudo value, INT_SWINT_1_SIGRETURN, that we used for the rt_sigreturn syscall; it avoided the case where one signal was handled, then we "tail-called" to another handler. This change avoids the similar case where we start to call one handler, then are preempted into another handler when we start trying to run the first handler. We clear ->faultnum after calling handle_signal(), and to be paranoid also in the case where there was no signal to deliver. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This change makes KM_TYPE_NR independent of the actual deprecated list of km_type values, which are no longer used in tile code anywhere. For now we leave it set to 8, allowing that many nested mappings, and thus reserving 32MB of address space. A few remaining places using KM_* values were cleaned up as well.

The caller allocated it, the caller should free it. The only issue so far is that we could change the flp pointer even on an error return if the fl_change callback failed. But we can simply move the flp assignment after the fl_change invocation, as the callers don't care about the flp return value if the setlease call failed.

Commit ffe8018c ("initramfs: fix initramfs size calculation") broke 32-bit big-endian arches like (on ARAnyM): VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(3,1) Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: fe80 1059408 nfhd8 (driver?) fe81 921600 nfhd8p1 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000nfhd8p1 fe82 137807 nfhd8p2 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000nfhd8p2 0200 3280 fd0 (driver?) 0201 3280 fd1 (driver?) 0300 1059408 hda driver: ide-gd 0301 921600 hda1 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000hda1 0302 137807 hda2 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000hda2 Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(3,1) As pointed out by Kerstin Jonsson <kerstin.jonsson@ericsson.com>, this is due to CONFIG_32BIT not being defined, so the initramfs size field is done as a 64-bit quad. On little-endian (like x86) this doesn matter, but on a big-endian machine the 32-bit reads will see the (zero) high bits. Only mips, s390, and score set CONFIG_32BIT for 32-bit builds, so fix it for all other 32-bit arches by inverting the logic and testing for CONFIG_64BIT, which should be defined on all 64-bit arches.

The NFSv4 server was initializing the dp->dl_flock pointer by the somewhat ridiculous method of a locks_copy_lock callback. Now that setlease uses the passed-in lock instead of doing a copy, dl_flock no longer gets set, resulting in the lock leaking on delegation release, and later possible hangs (among other problems). So, initialize dl_flock and get rid of the callback. Signed-off-by: J.

Even with the previous fix, we still are reading the iovecs once to determine SGs needed, and then again later on. Preallocating space for sg lists as part of rds_message seemed like a good idea but it might be better to not do this. While working to redo that code, this patch attempts to protect against userspace rewriting the rds_iovec array between the first and second accesses. The consequences of this would be either a too-small or too-large sg list array. Too large is not an issue. This patch changes all callers of message_alloc_sgs to handle running out of preallocated sgs, and fail gracefully. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Change rds_rdma_pages to take a passed-in rds_iovec array instead of doing copy_from_user itself. Change rds_cmsg_rdma_args to copy rds_iovec array once only. This eliminates the possibility of userspace changing it after our sanity checks. Implement stack-based storage for small numbers of iovecs, based on net/socket.c, to save an alloc in the extremely common case. Although this patch reduces iovec copies in cmsg_rdma_args to 1, we still do another one in rds_rdma_extra_size. Getting rid of that one will be trickier, so it'll be a separate patch.

As reported by Thomas Pollet, the rdma page counting can overflow. We get the rdma sizes in 64-bit unsigned entities, but then limit it to UINT_MAX bytes and shift them down to pages (so with a possible "+1" for an unaligned address). So each individual page count fits comfortably in an 'unsigned int' (not even close to overflowing into signed), but as they are added up, they might end up resulting in a signed return value. Which would be wrong. Catch the case of tot_pages turning negative, and return the appropriate error code.
