Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the
assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result,
using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned
data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL).
This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume
that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when
accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned,
this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in
some circumstances.
In general, the following rules should be applied when using data
word declaration directives inside code sections:
* .quad and .double:
.align 3
* .long, .word, .single, .float:
.align (or .align 2)
* .short:
No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2
instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size.

In nuc900_dma_hw_params(), if snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages failed
it returns without calling spin_unlock_irqrestore().
Since snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages() does not touch struct nuc900_audio,
we don't need to hold the lock while calling snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages().
Fix it by moving spin_lock_irqsave() down to after snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages().

Only make swapper_pg_dir readonly and pinned when generic x86 architecture code
(which also starts on initial_page_table) switches to it. This helps ensure
that the generic setup paths work on Xen unmodified. In particular
clone_pgd_range writes directly to the destination pgd entries and is used to
initialise swapper_pg_dir so we need to ensure that it remains writeable until
the last possible moment during bring up.
This is complicated slightly by the need to avoid sharing kernel PMD entries
when running under Xen, therefore the Xen implementation must make a copy of
the kernel PMD (which is otherwise referred to by both intial_page_table and
swapper_pg_dir) before switching to swapper_pg_dir.

This reverts commit e0fdace10e.
On-list discussion seems to suggest that the robustness fixes for printk
make this unnecessary and DaveM has also agreed in person at Kernel Summit
and on list.
The main problem with this code is once we hit a lockdep splat we always
keep oops_in_progress set, the console layer uses oops_in_progress with KMS
to decide when it should be showing the oops and not showing X, so it causes
problems around suspend/resume time when a userspace resume can cause a console
switch away from X, only if oops_in_progress is set (which is what we want
if an oops actually is in progress, but not because we had a lockdep splat
2 days prior).

Like in the "TTY: don't allow reopen when ldisc is changing" patch,
this one fixes a TTY WARNING as described in the option 1) there:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held. However tty_lock is temporarily dropped in
the middle of the function by tty_ldisc_hangup.
The fix is to introduce a new flag which we set during the unlocked
window and check it in tty_reopen too. The flag is TTY_HUPPING and is
cleared after TTY_HUPPED is set.
While at it, remove duplicate TTY_HUPPED set_bit. The one after
calling ops->hangup seems to be more correct. But anyway, we hold
tty_lock, so there should be no difference.
Also document the function it does that kind of crap.
Nicely reproducible with two forked children:
static void do_work(const char *tty)
{
if (signal(SIGHUP, SIG_IGN) == SIG_ERR) exit(1);
setsid();
while (1) {
int fd = open(tty, O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY);
if (fd < 0) continue;
if (ioctl(fd, TIOCSCTTY)) continue;
if (vhangup()) continue;
close(fd);
}
exit(0);

There are many WARNINGs like the following reported nowadays:
WARNING: at drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1331 tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a()
Hardware name: Latitude E6500
Modules linked in:
Pid: 1207, comm: plymouthd Not tainted 2.6.37-rc3-mmotm1123 #3
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff8103b189>] warn_slowpath_common+0x80/0x98

[<ffffffff8128a3ab>] tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a
[<ffffffff810fd53f>] chrdev_open+0x11d/0x146
...
This means tty_reopen is called without TTY_LDISC set. For further
considerations, note tty_lock is held in tty_open. TTY_LDISC is cleared in:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held. However tty_lock is temporarily dropped in
the middle of the function by tty_ldisc_hangup.
2) tty_release via tty_ldisc_release till the end of tty existence. If
tty->count <= 1, tty_lock is taken, TTY_CLOSING bit set and then
tty_ldisc_release called. tty_reopen checks TTY_CLOSING before checking
TTY_LDISC.
3) tty_set_ldisc from tty_ldisc_halt to tty_ldisc_enable. We:
* take tty_lock, set TTY_LDISC_CHANGING, put tty_lock
* call tty_ldisc_halt (clear TTY_LDISC), tty_lock is _not_ held
* do some other work
* take tty_lock, call tty_ldisc_enable (set TTY_LDISC), put
tty_lock
I cannot see how 2) can be a problem, as there I see no race. OTOH, 1)
and 3) can happen without problems. This patch the case 3) by checking
TTY_LDISC_CHANGING along with TTY_CLOSING in tty_reopen. 1) will be
fixed in the following patch.
Nicely reproducible with two processes:
while (1) {
fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
if (fd < 0) {
warn("open");
continue;
}
close(fd);
}
--------
while (1) {
fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
ld1 = 0; ld2 = 2;
while (1) {

ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ld2);

OMAP2+: PM/serial: hold console semaphore while OMAP UARTs are disabled
OMAP: UART: don't resume UARTs that are not enabled.
Some Lenovos have TPMs that require a quirk to function correctly. This can
be autodetected by checking whether the device has a _HID of INTC0102. This
is an invalid PNPid, and as such is discarded by the pnp layer - however
it's still present in the ACPI code, so we can pull it out that way. This
means that the quirk won't be automatically applied on non-ACPI systems,
but without ACPI we don't have any way to identify the chip anyway so I
don't think that's a great concern.

Xen will shoot all the VCPUs when we do a shutdown hypercall, so there's
no need to do it manually.
In any case it will fail because all the IPI irqs have been pulled
down by this point, so the cross-CPU calls will simply hang forever.
Until change 76fac077db the function calls
were not synchronously waited for, so this wasn't apparent. However after
that change the calls became synchronous leading to a hang on shutdown
on multi-VCPU guests.

Its easy to eat all kernel memory and trigger NMI watchdog, using an
exploit program that queues unix sockets on top of others.
lkml ref : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/25/8
This mechanism is used in applications, one choice we have is to have a
recursion limit.
Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files),
since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue
sizes only.
Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels.
Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its
recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared
when socket receive queue is emptied.
