<content type='text'>
commit 25534eb7707821b796fd84f7115367e02f36aa60 upstream.

These functions are used in some PCI drivers with big-endian
MMIO space.

Admittedly it is almost certain that no one this side of the
Moon would use such a card in an Alpha but it does get us
closer to being able to build allyesconfig or allmodconfig,
and it enables the Debian default generic config to build.

This reverts commit b93b90ff7c50288d602108ae1a09673df3f799a8, which
was commit 0ef38d70d4118b2ce1a538d14357be5ff9dc2bbd upstream.
It was intended to fix a regression which never occurred in 3.2.

commit 0ef38d70d4118b2ce1a538d14357be5ff9dc2bbd upstream.

The patch 3ddc5b46a8e90f3c9251338b60191d0a804b0d92 breaks networking on
alpha (there is a follow-up fix 5cfe8f1ba5eebe6f4b6e5858cdb1a5be4f3272a6,
but networking is still broken even with the second patch).

The patch 3ddc5b46a8e90f3c9251338b60191d0a804b0d92 makes
csum_partial_copy_from_user check the pointer with access_ok. However,
csum_partial_copy_from_user is called also from csum_partial_copy_nocheck
and csum_partial_copy_nocheck is called on kernel pointers and it is
supposed not to check pointer validity.

This bug results in ssh session hangs if the system is loaded and bulk
data are printed to ssh terminal.

This patch fixes csum_partial_copy_nocheck to call set_fs(KERNEL_DS), so
that access_ok in csum_partial_copy_from_user accepts kernel-space
addresses.

commit cd8d2331756751b6aeb855a3c9cb0a92fbd9c725 upstream.

Due to all of the goodness being packed into today's kernels, the
resulting image isn't as slim as it once was.

In light of this, don't pass -msmall-data to gcc, which otherwise results
in link failures due to impossible relocations when compiling anything but
the most trivial configurations.

commit 67a806d9499353fabd5b5ff07337f3aa88a1c3ba upstream.

The following build error occurred during an alpha build:

  net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant

Dave Anglin says:
&gt; Here is the line in sock.i:
&gt;
&gt; struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled =
&gt; ((atomic_t) { (0) }) });

The above line contains two compound literals.  It also uses a designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled.  A compound literal is not a
constant expression.

The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
consist of constant expressions.

<title>alpha: Don't export SOCK_NONBLOCK to user space.</title>

commit a2fa3ccd7b43665fe14cb562761a6c3d26a1d13f upstream.

Currently we export SOCK_NONBLOCK to user space but that conflicts with
the definition from glibc leading to compilation errors in user programs
(e.g.  see Debian bug #658460).

The generic socket.h restricts the definition of SOCK_NONBLOCK to the
kernel, as does the MIPS specific socket.h, so let's do the same on
Alpha.

commit 62aca403657fe30e5235c5331e9871e676d9ea0a upstream.

Michael Cree said:

: : I have noticed some user space problems (pulseaudio crashes in pthread
: : code, glibc/nptl test suite failures, java compiler freezes on SMP alpha
: : systems) that arise when using a 2.6.39 or later kernel on Alpha.
: : Bisecting between 2.6.38 and 2.6.39 (using glibc/nptl test suite as
: : criterion for good/bad kernel) eventually leads to:
: :
: : 8d7718aa082aaf30a0b4989e1f04858952f941bc is the first bad commit

: :     futex: Sanitize futex ops argument types
: :
: :     Change futex_atomic_op_inuser and futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic
: :     prototypes to use u32 types for the futex as this is the data type the
: :     futex core code uses all over the place.
: :
: : Looking at the commit I see there is a change of the uaddr argument in
: : the Alpha architecture specific code for futexes from int to u32, but I
: : don't see why this should cause a problem.

Richard Henderson said:

: futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr,
:                               u32 oldval, u32 newval)
: ...
:         :       "r"(uaddr), "r"((long)oldval), "r"(newval)
:
:
: There is no 32-bit compare instruction.  These are implemented by
: consistently extending the values to a 64-bit type.  Since the
: load instruction sign-extends, we want to sign-extend the other
: quantity as well (despite the fact it's logically unsigned).
:
: So:
:
: -        :       "r"(uaddr), "r"((long)oldval), "r"(newval)
: +        :       "r"(uaddr), "r"((long)(int)oldval), "r"(newval)
:
: should do the trick.

Michael said:

: This fixes the glibc test suite failures and the pulseaudio related
: crashes, but it does not fix the java compiiler lockups that I was (and
: are still) observing.  That is some other problem.
