It is now possible to assign options to AS and CC
on the command line - which is only used for built-in code.
{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL was used both in the top-level Makefile
in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
additional options to AS, CC without overriding
the original value.
Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL
that is used by arch specific files and free up

Debian's ia64 autobuilders have been seeing kernel freeze or reboot
when running the gdb testsuite (Debian bug 588574): dannf bisected to
2.6.32 62eede62da "mm: ZERO_PAGE without
PTE_SPECIAL"; and reproduced it with gdb's gcore on a simple target.
I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that
happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page),
yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when
access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer.
Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting
success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change,
but let's not risk it without testing exposure.
Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages?
Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.

smp_processor_id() must not be called from a preemptible context (this

This lead to a problem where the wrong per_cpu kmap_high_l1_vipt_depth
could be incremented, causing a BUG_ON(*depth <= 0); in
kunmap_high_l1_vipt().
The solution is to move the call to smp_processor_id() after the call

In root_nfs_name() it does the following:

printk(KERN_ERR "Root-NFS: Pathname for remote directory too long.\n");
return -1;
}
sprintf(nfs_export_path, buf, cp);
In the original code if (strlen(buf) + strlen(cp) == NFS_MAXPATHLEN)
then the sprintf() would lead to an overflow. Generally the rest of the
code assumes that the path can have NFS_MAXPATHLEN (1024) characters and
a NUL terminator so the fix is to add space to the nfs_export_path[]
buffer.

Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation
condition:
lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held()
as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the
functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent
detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held.
Instead, add the following validation condition:
task->exit_state >= 0
to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change
its own credentials.
Fix __task_cred()'s comment to:
(1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task
from being deleted. That shouldn't need saying.
(2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed
directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used
instead.
Also put a note into the documentation to enforce this point there too.

It's possible for get_task_cred() as it currently stands to 'corrupt' a set of
credentials by incrementing their usage count after their replacement by the
task being accessed.
What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds():
TASK_1 TASK_2 RCU_CLEANER
-->get_task_cred(TASK_2)
rcu_read_lock()
__cred = __task_cred(TASK_2)
-->commit_creds()
old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred
TASK_2->real_cred = ...
put_cred(old_cred)
call_rcu(old_cred)
[__cred->usage == 0]
get_cred(__cred)
[__cred->usage == 1]
rcu_read_unlock()
-->put_cred_rcu()
[__cred->usage == 1]
panic()
However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can
reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using
atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero.
If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even
if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU
cleanup code.
We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than
calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the
same problem.
Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be
tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be,
for example:

When the coherent DMA buffers are mapped as Normal Non-cacheable
(ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE enabled), buffer accesses are no longer ordered
with Device memory accesses causing failures in device drivers that do
not use the mandatory memory barriers before starting a DMA transfer.
LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be
added to the I/O accessors:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250
This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to
handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the
processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer
command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced
after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a
DMA transfer ready bit.

HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb
as a result of commit: 018cbffe68
(Merge commit 'v2.6.33' into perf/core).
The regression occurred because the behavior changed for setting
NOTIFY_STOP as the return value to the die notifier if the breakpoint
was known to the HW breakpoint API. Because kgdb is using the HW
breakpoint API to register HW breakpoints slots, it must also now
implement the overflow_handler call back else kgdb does not get to see
the events from the die notifier.
The kgdb_ll_trap function will be changed to be general purpose code
which can allow an easy way to implement the hw_breakpoint API
overflow call back.
