2011-09-27PM / Runtime: Introduce trace points for tracing rpm_* functionsMing Lei
This patch introduces 3 trace points to prepare for tracing rpm_idle/rpm_suspend/rpm_resume functions, so we can use these trace points to replace the current dev_dbg().

2011-09-27PM / Runtime: Don't run callbacks under lock for power.irq_safe setRafael J. Wysocki
The rpm_suspend() and rpm_resume() routines execute subsystem or PM domain callbacks under power.lock if power.irq_safe is set for the given device. This is inconsistent with that rpm_idle() does after commit 02b2677 (PM / Runtime: Allow _put_sync() from interrupts-disabled context) and is problematic for subsystems and PM domains wanting to use power.lock for synchronization in their runtime PM callbacks. This change requires the code checking if the device's runtime PM status is RPM_SUSPENDING or RPM_RESUMING to be modified too, to take the power.irq_safe set case into account (that code wasn't reachable before with power.irq_safe set, because it's executed with the device's power.lock held).

2011-08-19PM / Runtime: Add macro to test for runtime PM eventsAlan Stern
This patch (as1482) adds a macro for testing whether or not a pm_message value represents an autosuspend or autoresume (i.e., a runtime PM) event. Encapsulating this notion seems preferable to open-coding the test all over the place.

2011-08-14PM / Runtime: Add might_sleep() to runtime PM functionsColin Cross
Some of the entry points to pm runtime are not safe to call in atomic context unless pm_runtime_irq_safe() has been called. Inspecting the code, it is not immediately obvious that the functions sleep at all, as they run inside a spin_lock_irqsave, but under some conditions they can drop the lock and turn on irqs. If a driver incorrectly calls the pm_runtime apis, it can cause sleeping and irq processing when it expects to stay in atomic context. Add might_sleep_if to the majority of the __pm_runtime_* entry points to enforce correct usage. Add pm_runtime_put_sync_autosuspend to the list of functions that can be called in atomic context.

2011-08-11move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()Vasiliy Kulikov
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

All byte writes to non-zero pages are requests to clear the status register on that page. Since non-zero pages are virtual and do not exist on the chip, there is nothing to do, and such requests have to be ignored. This fixes above problem.
