For little-endian, the layout is the same, with\nsignals 1-32 in the first 4 bytes, signals 33-64 in the second, etc.; for\nbig-endian, userspace has that layout while in the kernel each 8 bytes have\nthe two halves swapped from the userspace layout.\n\nThe N32 sigsuspend syscall uses sigset_from_compat to convert the userspace\nsigset to kernel format.

This looks correct to me\nfor both big and little endian, given that in userspace compat-\u003esig[1] will\nrepresent signals 33-64, and so will the high 32 bits of set-\u003esig[0] in the\nkernel. If however __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__ *is* set, as it is for\n__MIPSEL__, it uses\n\n set-\u003esig[0] \u003d compat-\u003esig[1] | (((long)compat-\u003esig[0]) \u003c\u003c 32 );\n\nwhich seems incorrect for both big and little endian, and would\nexplain the observed symptoms.\n\nThis code is the only use of __COMPAT_ENDIAN_SWAP__, so if incorrect\nthen that macro serves no purpose, in which case something like the\nfollowing patch would seem appropriate to remove it.\n\nSigned-off-by: Joseph Myers \u003cjoseph@codesourcery.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ralf Baechle \u003cralf@linux-mips.org\u003e\nCc: Arnd Bergmann \u003carnd@arndb.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "eab03ac7bd3e0da99eb9dc068772a85a5e3f3577", "tree": "042447058f59b2e485a24a5175a6d7ab83baa9e1", "parents": [ "8ad2914d9cc55be651ef3bd676981a72c9001a47" ], "author": { "name": "Stephen Hemminger", "email": "shemminger@osdl.org", "time": "Sun Jun 25 05:48:31 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Jun 25 10:01:15 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] Get rid of /proc/sys/proc\n\nThe table is empty, why does it still exist?\n\nSigned-off-by: Stephen Hemminger \u003cshemminger@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3b9c04106b70e46803c69d13d5da32f6129fa76d", "tree": "b0405d1823ea30cdc07cd5ab5361d39b262e531e", "parents": [ "e5dcd90b53d601a04482db9800336a0ccf190880" ], "author": { "name": "Jan Engelhardt", "email": "jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de", "time": "Sun Jun 25 05:48:15 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Jun 25 10:01:13 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] printk time parameter\n\nCurrently, enabling/disabling printk timestamps is only possible through\nreboot (bootparam) or recompile.

For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()\nwhich will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the\nsuperblock\u0027s s_root (as per the old default behaviour).\n\nThe get_sb() op now returns an integer as there\u0027s now no need to return the\nsuperblock pointer.\n\nThis patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount\npoints, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In\nsuch a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root\nand mnt_sb would be set directly.\n\nThe patch also makes the following changes:\n\n (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount\n pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change\n very little.\n\n (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should\n normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will\n always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().\n\n (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the\n dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().\n\n This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that\n aren\u0027t actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The\n currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,\n and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in\n dentries being left unculled.\n\n However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be\n implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is\n simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for \u0027/\u0027 may well be\n inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries\n with child trees.\n\n [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.\n\n (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of\n changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.\n\n[akpm@osdl.org: convert ipath_fs, do other stuff]\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Nathan Scott \u003cnathans@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Roland Dreier \u003crolandd@cisco.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "45c091bb2d453ce4a8b06cf19872ec7a77fc4799", "tree": "06fb2e05518ebfba163f8424e028e7faf5672d66", "parents": [ "d588fcbe5a7ba8bba2cebf7799ab2d573717a806", "2191fe3e39159e3375f4b7ec1420df149f154101" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jun 22 22:11:30 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jun 22 22:11:30 2006 -0700" }, "message": "Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc\n\n* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc: (139 commits)\n [POWERPC] re-enable OProfile for iSeries, using timer interrupt\n [POWERPC] support ibm,extended-*-frequency properties\n [POWERPC] Extra sanity check in EEH code\n [POWERPC] Dont look for class-code in pci children\n [POWERPC] Fix mdelay badness on shared processor partitions\n [POWERPC] disable floating point exceptions for init\n [POWERPC] Unify ppc syscall tables\n [POWERPC] mpic: add support for serial mode interrupts\n [POWERPC] pseries: Print PCI slot location code on failure\n [POWERPC] spufs: one more fix for 64k pages\n [POWERPC] spufs: fail spu_create with invalid flags\n [POWERPC] spufs: clear class2 interrupt status before wakeup\n [POWERPC] spufs: fix Makefile for \"make clean\"\n [POWERPC] spufs: remove stop_code from struct spu\n [POWERPC] spufs: fix spu irq affinity setting\n [POWERPC] spufs: further abstract priv1 register access\n [POWERPC] spufs: split the Cell BE support into generic and platform dependant parts\n [POWERPC] spufs: dont try to access SPE channel 1 count\n [POWERPC] spufs: use kzalloc in create_spu\n [POWERPC] spufs: fix initial state of wbox file\n ...\n\nManually resolved conflicts in:\n\tdrivers/net/phy/Makefile\n\tinclude/asm-powerpc/spu.h\n" }, { "commit": "de047c1bcd7f7bcfbdc29eb5b439fb332594da3f", "tree": "ff0d52044559971b8d68aaeb00fc7b6a876b3a3d", "parents": [ "c89681ed7d0e4a61d35bdc12c06c6733b718b2cb" ], "author": { "name": "Ravikiran G Thirumalai", "email": "kiran@scalex86.org", "time": "Thu Jun 22 14:47:26 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jun 22 15:05:57 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] avoid tasklist_lock at getrusage for multithreaded case too\n\nAvoid taking tasklist_lock for at getrusage for the multithreaded case too.\nWe don\u0027t need to take the tasklist lock for thread traversal of a process\nsince Oleg\u0027s do-__unhash_process-under-siglock.patch and related work.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai \u003ckiran@scalex86.org\u003e\nCc: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@tv-sign.ru\u003e\nCc: \"Eric W.

Changed sys_msgctl() and semctl_down() so that an IPC_SET_PERM\n record is emitted in the failure case as well as the success case.\n This matches the behavior in sys_shmctl(). I could simplify the\n code in sys_msgctl() and semctl_down() slightly but it would mean\n that in some error cases we could get an IPC_SET_PERM record\n without an IPC record and that seemed odd.\n\n2. No change to the IPC record type, given no feedback on the backward\n compatibility question.\n\n3. Removed the qbytes field from the IPC record. It wasn\u0027t being\n set and when audit_ipc_obj() is called from ipcperms(), the\n information isn\u0027t available. If we want the information in the IPC\n record, more extensive changes will be necessary. Since it only\n applies to message queues and it isn\u0027t really permission related, it\n doesn\u0027t seem worth it.\n\n4. Removed the obj field from the IPC_SET_PERM record. This means that\n the kern_ipc_perm argument is no longer needed.\n\n5. Removed the spaces and renamed the IPC_SET_PERM field names. Replaced iuid and\n igid fields with ouid and ogid in the IPC record.\n\nI tested this with the lspp.22 kernel on an x86_64 box.
