2012-12-17ptrace: introduce PTRACE_O_EXITKILLOleg Nesterov3-1/+9
Ptrace jailers want to be sure that the tracee can never escape from the control. However if the tracer dies unexpectedly the tracee continues to run in potentially unsafe mode. Add the new ptrace option PTRACE_O_EXITKILL. If the tracer exits it sends SIGKILL to every tracee which has this bit set. Note that the new option is not equal to the last-option << 1. Because currently all options have an event, and the new one starts the eventless group. It uses the random 20 bit, so we have the room for 12 more events, but we can also add the new eventless options below this one. Suggested by Amnon Shiloh.

2012-12-17fs/fat: strip "cp" prefix from codepage in displayDave Reisner1-1/+2
Option parsing code expects an unsigned integer for the codepage option, but prefixes and stores this option with "cp" before passing to load_nls().

2012-12-17fat: provide option for setting timezone offsetJan Kara4-9/+37
So far FAT either offsets time stamps by sys_tz.minuteswest or leaves them as they are (when tz=UTC mount option is used). However in some cases it is useful if one can specify time stamp offset on his own (e.g. when time zone of the camera connected is different from time zone of the computer, or when HW clock is in UTC and thus sys_tz.minuteswest == 0). So provide a mount option time_offset= which allows user to specify offset in minutes that should be applied to time stamps on the filesystem. akpm: this code would work incorrectly when used via `mount -o remount', because cached inodes would not be updated. But fatfs's fat_remount() is basically a no-op anyway.

Enabling RTC HW block depends on the default value of TPS65910 register. In some mode, RTC block is disabled by default.(eg. AM3517 Craneboard) In this case, RTC_PWDN(RTC power down) bit should be cleared to enable the RTC HW block. This patch also works in case that RTC block is active by default, because there is no side effect even if the bit is updated again. Tested on AM3517 Craneboard.

2012-12-17rtc: rtc-spear: Provide flag for no support of UIE modeDeepak Sikri1-0/+2
The applications can set the RTC hardware to trigger interrupts in one of three modes: * AIE: Alarm interrupt * UIE: Update interrupt (ie: once per second) * PIE: Periodic interrupt (sub-second irqs) The above defined 3 modes are to be supported in the RTC HW in form of interrupts. The SPEAr RTC hardware does not support the later two modes. There have been refinements in the RTC core in mainline related to use of timer queue infrastructure to manage events in RTC. Please refer the below mentioned patch for details: * RTC: Rework RTC code to use timerqueue for events * SHA ID: 6610e0893b8bc6f59b14fed7f089c5997f035f88 There have been provisions added to support hardware that do not have support the UIE mode. Please refer the following patch. * rtc: Provide flag for rtc devices that don't support UIE * SHA ID: 4a649903f91232d02284d53724b0a45728111767 The patch makes use of the provision defined in the above patch to update the hardware status of UIE mode.

2012-12-17rtc: omap: kicker mechanism supportAfzal Mohammed1-3/+41
OMAP RTC IP can have kicker feature. This prevents spurious writes to register. To write to registers kicker lock has to be released. Procedure to do it as follows, 1. write to kick0 register, 0x83e70b13 2. write to kick1 register, 0x95a4f1e0 Writing value other than 0x83e70b13 to kick0 enables write locking, more details about kicker mechanism can be found in section 20.3.3.5.3 of AM335X TRM @www.ti.com/am335x Here id table information is added and is used to distinguish those that require kicker handling and the ones that doesn't need it. There are more features in the newer IP's compared to legacy ones other than kicker, which driver currently doesn't handle, supporting additional features would be easier with the addition of id table. Older IP (of OMAP1) doesn't have revision register as per TRM, so revision register can't be relied always to find features, hence id table is being used.

2012-12-17checkpatch: warn about using CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALKees Cook1-0/+13
This config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel summit, it is being removed.

2012-12-17compat: generic compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementationCatalin Marinas12-63/+29
This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support. The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do the u32->int sign extension. The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched function declarations.

2012-12-17percpu_rw_semaphore: add lockdep annotationsOleg Nesterov2-5/+26
Add lockdep annotations. Not only this can help to find the potential problems, we do not want the false warnings if, say, the task takes two different percpu_rw_semaphore's for reading. IOW, at least ->rw_sem should not use a single class. This patch exposes this internal lock to lockdep so that it represents the whole percpu_rw_semaphore. This way we do not need to add another "fake" ->lockdep_map and lock_class_key. More importantly, this also makes the output from lockdep much more understandable if it finds the problem. In short, with this patch from lockdep pov percpu_down_read() and percpu_up_read() acquire/release ->rw_sem for reading, this matches the actual semantics. This abuses __up_read() but I hope this is fine and in fact I'd like to have down_read_no_lockdep() as well, percpu_down_read_recursive_readers() will need it.

2012-12-17percpu_rw_semaphore: kill ->writer_mutex, add ->write_ctrOleg Nesterov2-20/+18
percpu_rw_semaphore->writer_mutex was only added to simplify the initial rewrite, the only thing it protects is clear_fast_ctr() which otherwise could be called by multiple writers. ->rw_sem is enough to serialize the writers. Kill this mutex and add "atomic_t write_ctr" instead. The writers increment/decrement this counter, the readers check it is zero instead of mutex_is_locked(). Move atomic_add(clear_fast_ctr(), slow_read_ctr) under down_write() to avoid the race with other writers. This is a bit sub-optimal, only the first writer needs this and we do not need to exclude the readers at this stage. But this is simple, we do not want another internal lock until we add more features. And this speeds up the write-contended case. Before this patch the racing writers sleep in synchronize_sched_expedited() sequentially, with this patch multiple synchronize_sched_expedited's can "overlap" with each other. Note: we can do more optimizations, this is only the first step.

2012-12-17percpu_rw_semaphore: reimplement to not block the readers unnecessarilyOleg Nesterov3-71/+168
Currently the writer does msleep() plus synchronize_sched() 3 times to acquire/release the semaphore, and during this time the readers are blocked completely. Even if the "write" section was not actually started or if it was already finished. With this patch down_write/up_write does synchronize_sched() twice and down_read/up_read are still possible during this time, just they use the slow path. percpu_down_write() first forces the readers to use rw_semaphore and increment the "slow" counter to take the lock for reading, then it takes that rw_semaphore for writing and blocks the readers. Also. With this patch the code relies on the documented behaviour of synchronize_sched(), it doesn't try to pair synchronize_sched() with barrier.

2012-12-17sscanf: don't ignore field widths for numeric conversionsJan Beulich1-43/+53
This is another step towards better standard conformance. Rather than adding a local buffer to store the specified portion of the string (with the need to enforce an arbitrary maximum supported width to limit the buffer size), do a maximum width conversion and then drop as much of it as is necessary to meet the caller's request. Also fail on negative field widths. Uses the deprecated simple_strto*() functions because kstrtoXX() fail on non-zero terminated strings.
