* Fix get_unmapped_area sanity testsLinus Torvalds2005-05-191-28/+31
| | | | | | As noted by Chris Wright, we need to do the full range of tests regardless of whether MAP_FIXED is set or not, so re-organize get_unmapped_area() slightly to do the sanity checks unconditionally.
* [PATCH] prevent NULL mmap in topdown modelLinus Torvalds2005-05-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Prevent the topdown allocator from allocating mmap areas all the way down to address zero. We still allow a MAP_FIXED mapping of page 0 (needed for various things, ranging from Wine and DOSEMU to people who want to allow speculative loads off a NULL pointer). Tested by Chris Wright.

* [PATCH] RLIMIT_AS checking fixakpm@osdl.org2005-05-011-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Address bug #4508: there's potential for wraparound in the various places where we perform RLIMIT_AS checking. (I'm a bit worried about acct_stack_growth(). Are we sure that vma->vm_mm is always equal to current->mm? If not, then we're comparing some other process's total_vm with the calling process's rlimits).

* [PATCH] freepgt: free_pgtables from FIRST_USER_ADDRESSHugh Dickins2005-04-191-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patches to free_pgtables by vma left problems on any architectures which leave some user address page table entries unencapsulated by vma. Andi has fixed the 32-bit vDSO on x86_64 to use a vma. Now fix arm (and arm26), whose first PAGE_SIZE is reserved (perhaps) for machine vectors. Our calls to free_pgtables must not touch that area, and exit_mmap's BUG_ON(nr_ptes) must allow that arm's get_pgd_slow may (or may not) have allocated an extra page table, which its free_pgd_slow would free later. FIRST_USER_PGD_NR has misled me and others: until all the arches define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS instead, a hack in mmap.c to derive one from t'other. This patch fixes the bugs, the remaining patches just clean it up.

* [PATCH] freepgt: remove MM_VM_SIZE(mm)Hugh Dickins2005-04-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's only one usage of MM_VM_SIZE(mm) left, and it's a troublesome macro because mm doesn't contain the (32-bit emulation?) info needed. But it too is only needed because we ignore the end from the vma list. We could make flush_pgtables return that end, or unmap_vmas. Choose the latter, since it's a natural fit with unmap_mapping_range_vma needing to know its restart addr. This does make more than minimal change, but if unmap_vmas had returned the end before, this is how we'd have done it, rather than storing the break_addr in zap_details. unmap_vmas used to return count of vmas scanned, but that's just debug which hasn't been useful in a while; and if we want the map_count 0 on exit check back, it can easily come from the final remove_vm_struct loop.

* [PATCH] freepgt: free_pgtables use vma listHugh Dickins2005-04-191-81/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent woes with some arches needing their own pgd_addr_end macro; and 4-level clear_page_range regression since 2.6.10's clear_page_tables; and its long-standing well-known inefficiency in searching throughout the higher-level page tables for those few entries to clear and free: all can be blamed on ignoring the list of vmas when we free page tables. Replace exit_mmap's clear_page_range of the total user address space by free_pgtables operating on the mm's vma list; unmap_region use it in the same way, giving floor and ceiling beyond which it may not free tables. This brings lmbench fork/exec/sh numbers back to 2.6.10 (unless preempt is enabled, in which case latency fixes spoil unmap_vmas throughput). Beware: the do_mmap_pgoff driver failure case must now use unmap_region instead of zap_page_range, since a page table might have been allocated, and can only be freed while it is touched by some vma. Move free_pgtables from mmap.c to memory.c, where its lower levels are adapted from the clear_page_range levels. (Most of free_pgtables' old code was actually for a non-existent case, prev not properly set up, dating from before hch gave us split_vma.) Pass mmu_gather** in the public interfaces, since we might want to add latency lockdrops later; but no attempt to do so yet, going by vma should itself reduce latency. But what if is_hugepage_only_range? Those ia64 and ppc64 cases need careful examination: put that off until a later patch of the series. What of x86_64's 32bit vdso page __map_syscall32 maps outside any vma? And the range to sparc64's flush_tlb_pgtables? It's less clear to me now that we need to do more than is done here - every PMD_SIZE ever occupied will be flushed, do we really have to flush every PGDIR_SIZE ever partially occupied? A shame to complicate it unnecessarily. Special thanks to David Miller for time spent repairing my ceilings.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+2082
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
