score: Add missing #include

2014-08-06T17:07:41+00:00

There is no upstream commit for this, as arch/score/kernel/init_task.c
has been replaced by generic code and  is included
indirectly by arch/score/mm/init.c.

score: fix off-by-one index into syscall table

2012-01-26T00:13:56+00:00

commit c25a785d6647984505fa165b5cd84cfc9a95970b upstream.

If the provided system call number is equal to __NR_syscalls, the
current check will pass and a function pointer just after the system
call table may be called, since sys_call_table is an array with total
size __NR_syscalls.

Whether or not this is a security bug depends on what the compiler puts
immediately after the system call table.  It's likely that this won't do
anything bad because there is an additional NULL check on the syscall
entry, but if there happens to be a non-NULL value immediately after the
system call table, this may result in local privilege escalation.

This patch removes all the module loader hook implementations in the
architecture specific code where the functionality is the same as that
now provided by the recently added default hooks.

ptrace: change signature of arch_ptrace()

2010-10-28T01:03:10+00:00

Fix up the arguments to arch_ptrace() to take account of the fact that
@addr and @data are now unsigned long rather than long as of a preceding
patch in this series.
