Pull more vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "Assorted VFS fixes and related cleanups (IMO the most interesting in
  that part are f_path-related things and Eric's descriptor-related
  stuff).  UFS regression fixes (it got broken last cycle).  9P fixes.
  fs-cache series, DAX patches, Jan's file_remove_suid() work"

[ I'd say this is much more than "fixes and related cleanups".  The
  file_table locking rule change by Eric Dumazet is a rather big and
  fundamental update even if the patch isn't huge.   - Linus ]

mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code about huge_pmd_unshare

2015-06-25T00:49:41+00:00

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions of huge_pmd_unshare.  In
all architectures this function just returns 0 when
CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE is N.

This patch puts the default implementation in mm/hugetlb.c and lets these
architectures use the common code.

tile: avoid a "label not used" warning in do_page_fault()

2015-06-04T17:55:50+00:00

There are two different ifdef cases where the label is used,
but if neither is true, the label is unused and the compiler
generates a warning.

Refactor the code the way x86 does so that there is a
do_page_fault() that just does exception handling for
context tracking, and make __do_page_fault() a static inline
so that various cases can just return instead of doing a
jump to "done".

mm/fault, arch: Use pagefault_disable() to check for disabled pagefaults in the handler

2015-05-19T06:39:15+00:00

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.

Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).

In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().

Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.

faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

This patch is based on a patch from Thomas Gleixner.

sched/preempt, mm/kmap: Explicitly disable/enable preemption in kmap_atomic_*

2015-05-19T06:39:14+00:00

The existing code relies on pagefault_disable() implicitly disabling
preemption, so that no schedule will happen between kmap_atomic() and
kunmap_atomic().

Let's make this explicit, to prepare for pagefault_disable() not
touching preemption anymore.

tile: map data region shadow of kernel as R/W

2015-04-17T18:01:35+00:00

This is necessary for things like reading /proc/kcore, doing ftrace,
etc.  It happens by default when using huge pages to map the kernel
data, but not when using small pages.

tile: support CONTEXT_TRACKING and thus NOHZ_FULL

2015-04-17T18:01:10+00:00

Add the TIF_NOHZ flag appropriately.

Add call to user_exit() on entry to do_work_pending() and on entry
to syscalls via do_syscall_trace_enter(), and also the top of
do_syscall_trace_exit() just because it's done in x86.

Add call to user_enter() at the bottom of do_work_pending() once we
have no more work to do before returning to userspace.

Wrap all the trap code in exception_enter() / exception_exit().

tile/elf: reorganize notify_exec()

2015-04-17T16:58:31+00:00

In the future mm->exe_file will be done without mmap_sem
serialization, thus isolate and reorganize the tile elf
code to make the transition easier. Good users will, make
use of the more standard get_mm_exe_file(), requiring only
holding the mmap_sem to read the value, and relying on reference
counting to make sure that the exe file won't dissappear
underneath us.

The visible effects of this patch are:

   o We now take and drop the mmap_sem more often. Instead of
     just in arch_setup_additional_pages(), we also do it in:

     1) get_mm_exe_file()
     2) to get the mm->vm_file and notify the simulator.

    [Note that 1) will disappear once we change the locking
     rules for exe_file.]

   o We avoid getting a free page and doing d_path() while
     holding the mmap_sem. This requires reordering the checks.
