Pull audit updates from Eric Paris: "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the syscall... For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch) So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical syscall entry. The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things static. Really minor stuff" * git://git.infradead.org/users/eparis/audit: (31 commits) audit: rename audit_log_remove_rule to disambiguate for trees audit: cull redundancy in audit_rule_change audit: WARN if audit_rule_change called illegally audit: put rule existence check in canonical order next: openrisc: Fix build audit: get comm using lock to avoid race in string printing audit: remove open_arg() function that is never used audit: correct AUDIT_GET_FEATURE return message type audit: set nlmsg_len for multicast messages. audit: use union for audit_field values since they are mutually exclusive audit: invalid op= values for rules audit: use atomic_t to simplify audit_serial() kernel/audit.c: use ARRAY_SIZE instead of sizeof/sizeof[0] audit: reduce scope of audit_log_fcaps audit: reduce scope of audit_net_id audit: arm64: Remove the audit arch argument to audit_syscall_entry arm64: audit: Add audit hook in syscall_trace_enter/exit() audit: x86: drop arch from __audit_syscall_entry() interface sparc: implement is_32bit_task sparc: properly conditionalize use of TIF_32BIT ...

Pull arch atomic cleanups from Ingo Molnar: "This is a series kept separate from the main locking tree, which cleans up and improves various details in the atomics type handling: - Remove the unused atomic_or_long() method - Consolidate and compress atomic ops implementations between architectures, to reduce linecount and to make it easier to add new ops. - Rewrite generic atomic support to only require cmpxchg() from an architecture - generate all other methods from that" * 'locking-arch-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) locking,arch: Use ACCESS_ONCE() instead of cast to volatile in atomic_read() locking, mips: Fix atomics locking, sparc64: Fix atomics locking,arch: Rewrite generic atomic support locking,arch,xtensa: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,sparc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,sh: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,powerpc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,parisc: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,mn10300: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,mips: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,metag: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,m68k: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,m32r: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,ia64: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,hexagon: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,cris: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,avr32: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,arm64: Fold atomic_ops locking,arch,arm: Fold atomic_ops ...

locking,arch: Use ACCESS_ONCE() instead of cast to volatile in atomic_read()

2014-10-03T04:06:23Z

Use the much more reader friendly ACCESS_ONCE() instead of the cast to volatile. This is purely a stylistic change.

asm/uapi: Add definition of TIOC[SG]RS485

Commit: e676253b19b2d269cccf67fdb1592120a0cd0676 (serial/8250: Add support for RS485 IOCTLs), adds support for RS485 ioctls for 825_core on all the archs.

Alpha: define syscall_get_arch()

2014-09-23T20:20:03Z

Since Alpha supports syscall audit it now needs to have a syscall.h which implements syscall_get_arch() rather than hard coding this value into audit_syscall_entry(). Based-on-patch-by: Richard Briggs Signed-off-by: Eric Paris Cc: linux-alpha@vger.kernel.org

irq_work: Introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt()

2014-09-13T16:38:07Z

The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped. Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to tell about their support for this ability. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Paul E.

alpha: io: implement relaxed accessor macros for writes

2014-08-29T18:18:45Z

write{b,w,l,q}_relaxed are implemented by some architectures in order to permit memory-mapped I/O writes with weaker barrier semantics than the non-relaxed variants. This patch implements these write macros for Alpha, in the same vein as the relaxed read macros, which are already implemented.
