net: add net_tstamp.h to headers_install

2009-12-12T12:08:15+00:00

include/linux/net_tstamp.h is userspace API for hardware time stamping
of network packets. It should be exported to userspace.

tty: esp: remove broken driver

2009-12-11T23:18:03+00:00

The ESP driver has been marked broken for years. It's an old ISA device
that clearly nobody cares about any more. Remove it

define convenient securebits masks for prctl users (v2)

2009-10-29T21:27:25+00:00

Hi James, would you mind taking the following into
security-testing?

The securebits are used by passing them to prctl with the
PR_{S,G}ET_SECUREBITS commands.  But the defines must be
shifted to be used in prctl, which begs to be confused and
misused by userspace.  So define some more convenient
values for userspace to specify.  This way userspace does

	prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, SECBIT_NOROOT);

instead of

	prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, 1 << SECURE_NOROOT);

(Thanks to Michael for the idea)

This patch also adds include/linux/securebits to the installed headers.
Then perhaps it can be included by glibc's sys/prctl.h.

Changelog:
	Oct 29: Stephen Rothwell points out that issecure can
		be under __KERNEL__.
	Oct 14: (Suggestions by Michael Kerrisk):
		1. spell out SETUID in SECBIT_NO_SETUID*
		2. SECBIT_X_LOCKED does not imply SECBIT_X
		3. add definitions for keepcaps
        Oct 14: As suggested by Michael Kerrisk, don't
		use SB_* as that convention is already in
		use.  Use SECBIT_ prefix instead.

virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h

2009-10-22T06:09:28+00:00

Rusty,

commit 3ca4f5ca73057a617f9444a91022d7127041970a
    virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include " from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.

In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

dm raid1: add userspace log

2009-06-22T09:12:35+00:00

This patch contains a device-mapper mirror log module that forwards
requests to userspace for processing.

The structures used for communication between kernel and userspace are
located in include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h.  Due to the frequency,
diversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between
kernel and userspace, 'connector' was chosen as the interface for
communication.

The first log implementations written in userspace - "clustered-disk"
and "clustered-core" - support clustered shared storage.   A userspace
daemon (in the LVM2 source code repository) uses openAIS/corosync to
process requests in an ordered fashion with the rest of the nodes in the
cluster so as to prevent log state corruption.  Other implementations
with no association to LVM or openAIS/corosync, are certainly possible.

(Imagine if two machines are writing to the same region of a mirror.
They would both mark the region dirty, but you need a cluster-aware
entity that can handle properly marking the region clean when they are
done.  Otherwise, you might clear the region when the first machine is
done, not the second.)

LinuxPPS: core support

2009-06-18T20:04:04+00:00

This patch adds the kernel side of the PPS support currently named
"LinuxPPS".

PPS means "pulse per second" and a PPS source is just a device which
provides a high precision signal each second so that an application can
use it to adjust system clock time.

Common use is the combination of the NTPD as userland program with a GPS
receiver as PPS source to obtain a wallclock-time with sub-millisecond
synchronisation to UTC.

To obtain this goal the userland programs shoud use the PPS API
specification (RFC 2783 - Pulse-Per-Second API for UNIX-like Operating
Systems, Version 1.0) which in part is implemented by this patch.  It
provides a set of chars devices, one per PPS source, which can be used to
get the time signal.  The RFC's functions can be implemented by accessing
to these char devices.
