ipc: lost unlock and fput in mqueue.c on error path

2007-11-29T17:24:52Z

The error path in sys_mq_getsetattr() after the call to audit_mq_getsetattr() is wrong - the info->lock is not unlocked and the struct file *filp is not put. Fix them both. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Cc: Pierre Peiffer Cc: Nadia Derbey Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[NETLINK]: Fix unicast timeouts

2007-11-07T12:15:12Z

Commit ed6dcf4a in the history.git tree broke netlink_unicast timeouts by moving the schedule_timeout() call to a new function that doesn't propagate the remaining timeout back to the caller. This means on each retry we start with the full timeout again. ipc/mqueue.c seems to actually want to wait indefinitely so this behaviour is retained.

pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to user

2007-10-19T18:53:40Z

This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids. The idea is: - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call; - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids; - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this task's namespace the global one is to be used; - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

sysctl mqueue: remove the binary sysctl numbers

2007-10-18T21:37:22Z

Because of a conflict with FS_INODE_NR none of the binary sysctl numbers use by mqueue, were available to user space. So just remove them. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman Cc: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Slab API: remove useless ctor parameter and reorder parameters

2007-10-17T15:42:45Z

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used. And the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions. The object pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer. Convert ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags) to ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object) throughout the kernel [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coupla fixes] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().

2007-07-20T01:11:58Z

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either. This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create() completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves, or the documentation references).

[PATCH] complete message queue auditing

2007-05-11T09:38:26Z

Handle the edge cases for POSIX message queue auditing. Collect inode info when opening an existing mq, and for send/receive operations. Remove audit_inode_update() as it has really evolved into the equivalent of audit_inode(). Signed-off-by: Amy Griffis Signed-off-by: Al Viro
