5e41ff9e06 [PATCH] security: enable atomic inode security labeling
The following patch set enables atomic security labeling of newly created
inodes by altering the fs code to invoke a new LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state during the inode creation transaction.  This parallels the
existing processing for setting ACLs on newly created inodes.  Otherwise, it
is possible for new inodes to be accessed by another thread via the dcache
prior to complete security setup (presently handled by the
post_create/mkdir/...  LSM hooks in the VFS) and a newly created inode may be
left unlabeled on the disk in the event of a crash.  SELinux presently works
around the issue by ensuring that the incore inode security label is
initialized to a special SID that is inaccessible to unprivileged processes
(in accordance with policy), thereby preventing inappropriate access but
potentially causing false denials on legitimate accesses.  A simple test
program demonstrates such false denials on SELinux, and the patch solves the
problem.  Similar such false denials have been encountered in real
applications.

This patch defines a new inode_init_security LSM hook to obtain the security
attribute to apply to a newly created inode and to set up the incore inode
security state for it, and adds a corresponding hook function implementation
to SELinux.

fef266580e [PATCH] update filesystems for new delete_inode behavior
Update the file systems in fs/ implementing a delete_inode() callback to
call truncate_inode_pages().  One implementation note: In developing this
patch I put the calls to truncate_inode_pages() at the very top of those
filesystems delete_inode() callbacks in order to retain the previous
behavior.  I'm guessing that some of those could probably be optimized.

e85b565233 [PATCH] move truncate_inode_pages() into ->delete_inode()
Allow file systems supporting ->delete_inode() to call
truncate_inode_pages() on their own.  OCFS2 wants this so it can query the
cluster before making a final decision on whether to wipe an inode from
disk or not.  In some corner cases an inode marked on the local node via
voting may not actually get orphaned.  A good example is node death before
the transaction moving the inode to the orphan dir commits to the journal.
Without this patch, the truncate_inode_pages() call in
generic_delete_inode() would discard valid data for such inodes.

During earlier discussion in the 2.6.13 merge plan thread, Christoph
Hellwig indicated that other file systems might also find this useful.

IMHO, the best solution would be to just allow ->drop_inode() to do the
cluster query but it seems that would require a substantial reworking of
that section of the code.  Assuming it is safe to call write_inode_now() in
ocfs2_delete_inode() for those inodes which won't actually get wiped, this
solution should get us by for now.

Trivial testing of this patch (and a related OCFS2 update) has shown this
to avoid the corruption I'm seeing.

b2ad7b5e81 Allow PCI config space syscalls to be used by 64-bit processes.
The pciconfig_iobase, pciconfig_read and pciconfig_write system calls
were only implemented for 32-bit processes; for 64-bit processes they
returned an ENOSYS error.  This allows them to be used by 64-bit
processes as well.  The X server uses pciconfig_iobase at least, and
this change is necessary to allow a 64-bit X server to work on my G5.

puts it in a separate structure, struct pci_dn.  The device_node now
just has a void * pointer in it, which points to a struct pci_dn for

future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as
virtual I/O devices.

3cc747e964 [PATCH] PPC64: large INITRD causes kernel not to boot
In PPC64 there are number of problems in arch/ppc64/boot/main.c that
prevent a kernel from making use of a large (greater than ~16MB) INITRD.
This is 64 bit architecture and really large INITRD images should be
possible.

Simply put the existing code has a fixed reservation (claim) address and
once the kernel plus initrd image are large enough to pass this address
all sorts of bad things occur. The fix is the dynamically establish the
first claim address above the loaded kernel plus initrd (plus some
"padding" and rounding). If PROG_START is defined this will be used as
the minimum safe address - currently known to be 0x01400000 for the
firmwares tested so far.
