920fc356f5 [PATCH] unpaged: COW on VM_UNPAGED
Remove the BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_UNPAGED) from do_wp_page, and let it do
Copy-On-Write without touching the VM_UNPAGED's page counts - but this is
incomplete, because the anonymous page it inserts will itself need to be
handled, here and in other functions - next patch.

We still don't copy the page if the pfn is invalid, because the
copy_user_highpage interface does not allow it.  But that's not been a problem
in the past: can be added in later if the need arises.

101d2be764 [PATCH] unpaged: VM_NONLINEAR VM_RESERVED
There's one peculiar use of VM_RESERVED which the previous patch left behind:
because VM_NONLINEAR's try_to_unmap_cluster uses vm_private_data as a swapout
cursor, but should never meet VM_RESERVED vmas, it was a way of extending
VM_NONLINEAR to VM_RESERVED vmas using vm_private_data for some other purpose.
 But that's an empty set - they don't have the populate function required.  So
just throw away those VM_RESERVED tests.

But one more interesting in rmap.c has to go too: try_to_unmap_one will want
to swap out an anonymous page from VM_RESERVED or VM_UNPAGED area.

0b14c179a4 [PATCH] unpaged: VM_UNPAGED
Although we tend to associate VM_RESERVED with remap_pfn_range, quite a few
drivers set VM_RESERVED on areas which are then populated by nopage.  The
PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 changed VM_RESERVED not to free pages in
zap_pte_range, without changing those drivers not to set it: so their pages
just leak away.

Let's not change miscellaneous drivers now: introduce VM_UNPAGED at the core,
to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they
have then it's not to be touched.  Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in
core mm by VM_UNPAGED.  Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and
sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range.

Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there.  Is it
needed anywhere?  It still governs the mm->reserved_vm statistic, and special
vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be
eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it
kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages
don't get on).

Use the VM_SHM slot for VM_UNPAGED, and define VM_SHM to 0: it serves no
purpose whatsoever, and should be removed from drivers when we clean up.

664beed019 [PATCH] unpaged: unifdefed PageCompound
It looks like snd_xxx is not the only nopage to be using PageReserved as a way
of holding a high-order page together: which no longer works, but is masked by
our failure to free from VM_RESERVED areas.  We cannot fix that bug without
first substituting another way to hold the high-order page together, while
farming out the 0-order pages from within it.

That's just what PageCompound is designed for, but it's been kept under
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE.  Remove the #ifdefs: which saves some space (out- of-line
put_page), doesn't slow down what most needs to be fast (already using
hugetlb), and unifies the way we handle high-order pages.

1cdca61bf8 [PATCH] unpaged: sound nopage get_page
Something noticed when studying use of VM_RESERVED in different drivers:
snd_usX2Y_hwdep_pcm_vm_nopage omitted to get_page: fixed.

And how did this work before?  Aargh!  That nopage is returning a page from
within a buffer allocated by snd_malloc_pages, which allocates a high-order
page, then does SetPageReserved on each 0-order page within.

That would have worked in 2.6.14, because when the area was unmapped,
PageReserved inhibited put_page.  2.6.15-rc1 removed that inhibition (while
leaving ineffective PageReserveds around for now), but it hasn't caused
trouble because..  we've not been freeing from VM_RESERVED at all.

83e9b7e929 [PATCH] unpaged: private write VM_RESERVED
The PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 issued a "deprecated" message when you
tried to mmap or mprotect MAP_PRIVATE PROT_WRITE a VM_RESERVED, and failed
with -EACCES: because do_wp_page lacks the refinement to COW pages in those
areas, nor do we expect to find anonymous pages in them; and it seemed just
bloat to add code for handling such a peculiar case.  But immediately it
caused vbetool and ddcprobe (using lrmi) to fail.

So revert the "deprecated" messages, letting mmap and mprotect succeed.  But
leave do_wp_page's BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_RESERVED) in place until we've
added the code to do it right: so this particular patch is only good if the
app doesn't really need to write to that private area.

ed5297a940 [PATCH] unpaged: get_user_pages VM_RESERVED
The PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 prohibited get_user_pages on the areas
flagged VM_RESERVED in place of PageReserved.  That is correct in theory - we
ought not to interfere with struct pages in such a reserved area; but in
practice it broke BTTV for one.

So revert to prohibiting only on VM_IO: if someone gets into trouble with
get_user_pages on VM_RESERVED, it'll just be a "don't do that".

You can argue that videobuf_mmap_mapper shouldn't set VM_RESERVED in the first
place, but now's not the time for breaking drivers without notice.

17d469715c [PATCH] uml: properly invoke x86_64 system calls
This patch makes stub_segv use the stub_syscall macros.  This was needed
anyway, but the bug that prompted this was the discovery that gcc was storing
stuff in RCX, which is trashed across a system call.  This is exactly the sort
of problem that the new macros fix.

There is a stub_syscall0 for getpid.  stub_segv was changed to be a libc file,
and that caused some include changes.

39d730ab87 [PATCH] uml: eliminate use of local in clone stub
We have a bug in the i386 stub_syscall6 which pushes ebp before the system
call and pops it afterwards.  Because we use syscall6 to remap the stack, the
old contents of the stack (and the former value of ebp) are no longer
available.  Some versions of gcc make from a real local, accessed through ebp,
despite my efforts to make it obvious that references to from are really
constants.  This patch attempts to make it even more obvious by eliminating
from and using a macro to access the stub's data explicitly with constants.

My original thinking on this was to replace syscall6 with a remap_stack
interface which saved ebp someplace and restored it afterwards.  The problem
is that there are no registers to put it in, except for esp.  That could work,
since we can store a constant in esp after the mmap because we just replaced
the stack.  However, this approach seems a tad cleaner.

4909724b5d [COMPAT] net: SIOCGIFCONF data corruption
From: Alexandra Kossovsky <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru>

From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4746

There is user data corruption when using ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF) in 32-bit
application running amd64 kernel. I do not think that this problem is
exploitable, but any data corruption may lead to security problems.
Following code demonstrates the problem

#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <net/if.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>

char buf[256];

main()
{
	int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
	struct ifconf req;
	int i;

	req.ifc_buf = buf;
	req.ifc_len = 41;

	printf("Result %d\n", ioctl(s, SIOCGIFCONF, &req));
	printf("Len %d\n", req.ifc_len);
	for (i = 41; i < 256; i++)
		if (buf[i] != 0)
			printf("Byte %d is corrupted\n", i);
}
	
Steps to reproduce:
Compile the code above into 32-bit elf and run it. You'll get
Result 0
Len 32
Byte 48 is corrupted
Byte 52 is corrupted
Byte 53 is corrupted
Byte 54 is corrupted
Byte 55 is corrupted

the new packet is to be sent at the same time of a previous packet, it
