1babddbc2e powerpc/spufs: Remove unused error path
Commit 45db924089 ("powerpc/spufs: Remove
double check for non-negative dentry") removed the only user of the
out_dput label, so remove it and the code following it.

Gets rid of this warning:

arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/inode.c: In function 'spufs_create':
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/inode.c:647: warning: label 'out_dput' defined but not used

45db924089 powerpc/spufs: Remove double check for non-negative dentry
This patch removes an unnecessary double check if the dentry returned by
lookup_create() is actually non-negative. Since lookup_create() itself returns
an error in this case just remove the check.

1330deb0f6 CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the PowerPC arch
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more

a447c09324 vfs: Use const for kernel parser table
This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm

4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

c443acab2e [POWERPC] spufs: Fix context destroy vs /spu readdir race
We can currently cause an oops by repeatedly creating and destroying
contexts, while doing getdents() calls on the "/spu" directory.

This is due to the context's top-level dentry remaining hashed while
the context is being destroyed.

Fix this by unhashing the context's dentry with the
dentry->d_inode->i_mutex held. This way, we'll hit the check for
d_unhashed in dentry_readdir, and won't be included in the
list of subdirs for /spu.

48cad41f7e [POWERPC] spufs: Combine spufs_coredump_calls with spufs_calls
Because spufs might be built as a module, we can't have other parts of the
kernel calling directly into it, we need stub routines that check first if the
module is loaded.

Currently we have two structures which hold callbacks for these stubs, the
syscalls are in spufs_calls and the coredump calls are in spufs_coredump_calls.
In both cases the logic for registering/unregistering is essentially the same,
so we can simplify things by combining the two.

50953fe9e0 slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flag
I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL.  It is only supported by
SLAB.

I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again?  The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.

I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free.  That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.

Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on.  If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code.  But there is no such code
in the kernel.  I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e.  add debug code before kfree).

There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches.  Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.

This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support.  Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

754661f143 [PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 1
Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

e18b890bb0 [PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t
Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

bd2e5f829e [POWERPC] spufs: return an error in spu_create is isolated create isnt supported
This changes the spu_create system call to return an error (-ENODEV) if
and isolated spu context is requested on hardware that doesn't support
isolated mode.

Tested on systemsim with and without isolation support

bf1ab978be [POWERPC] coredump: Add SPU elf notes to coredump.
This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note
for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1,
/signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status,
/mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id.

A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to
specify they have extra elf core notes.

A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the
additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry.

A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes
would be written after the existing notes.

The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the
kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via
register_arch_coredump_calls().

A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the
coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the
SPU context for each file read from.

c6730ed4c2 [POWERPC] spufs: Load isolation kernel from spu_run
In order to fit with the "don't-run-spus-outside-of-spu_run" model, this
patch starts the isolated-mode loader in spu_run, rather than
spu_create. If spu_run is passed an isolated-mode context that isn't in
isolated mode state, it will run the loader.

This fixes potential races with the isolated SPE app doing a
stop-and-signal before the PPE has called spu_run: bugzilla #29111.
Also (in conjunction with a mambo patch), this addresses #28565, as we
always set the runcntrl register when entering spu_run.

It is up to libspe to ensure that isolated-mode apps are cleaned up
after running to completion - ie, put the app through the "ISOLATE EXIT"
state (see Ch11 of the CBEA).

ee2d7340cb [POWERPC] spufs: Use SPU master control to prevent wild SPU execution
When the user changes the runcontrol register, an SPU might be
running without a process being attached to it and waiting for
events. In order to prevent this, make sure we always disable
the priv1 master control when we're not inside of spu_run.

099814bb1f [POWERPC] spufs: Add isolated-mode SPE recycling support
When in isolated mode, SPEs have access to an area of persistent
storage, which is per-SPE. In order for isolated-mode apps to
communicate arbitrary data through this storage, we need to ensure that
isolated physical SPEs can be reused for subsequent applications.

Add a file ("recycle") in a spethread dir to enable isolated-mode
recycling. By writing to this file, the kernel will reload the
isolated-mode loader kernel, allowing a new app to be run on the same
physical SPE.

This requires the spu_acquire_exclusive function to enforce exclusive
access to the SPE while the loader is initialised.
