futex: Sanitize futex ops argument types

2011-03-11T11:23:31+00:00

Change futex_atomic_op_inuser and futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic
prototypes to use u32 types for the futex as this is the data type the
futex core code uses all over the place.

futex: Sanitize cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API

2011-03-11T11:23:08+00:00

The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either
the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT.
This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places
that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue
by running fault_in_user_writeable().
    
This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the
get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the
original value through a reference argument.

[S390] uaccess: implement strict user copy checks

2010-02-26T21:37:29+00:00

Same as on x86 and sparc, besides the fact that enabling the option
will just emit compile time warnings instead of errors.
Keeps allyesconfig kernels compiling.

[S390] Use do_exception() in pagetable walk usercopy functions.

2009-12-07T11:51:34+00:00

The pagetable walk usercopy functions have used a modified copy of the
do_exception() function for fault handling. This lead to inconsistencies
with recent changes to do_exception(), e.g. performance counters. This
patch changes the pagetable walk usercopy code to call do_exception()
directly, eliminating the redundancy. A new parameter is added to
do_exception() to specify the fault address.
