This is much simpler and less fragile than using ld -R; it removes the

Randomize the location of the heap (brk) for i386 and x86_64. The range is
randomized in the range starting at current brk location up to 0x02000000
offset for both architectures. This, together with
pie-executable-randomization.patch and
pie-executable-randomization-fix.patch, should make the address space
randomization on i386 and x86_64 complete.
Arjan says:
This is known to break older versions of some emacs variants, whose dumper
code assumed that the last variable declared in the program is equal to the
start of the dynamically allocated memory region.
(The dumper is the code where emacs effectively dumps core at the end of it's
compilation stage; this coredump is then loaded as the main program during
normal use)
iirc this was 5 years or so; we found this way back when I was at RH and we
first did the security stuff there (including this brk randomization). It
wasn't all variants of emacs, and it got fixed as a result (I vaguely remember
that emacs already had code to deal with it for other archs/oses, just
ifdeffed wrongly).
It's a rare and wrong assumption as a general thing, just on x86 it mostly
happened to be true (but to be honest, it'll break too if gcc does
something fancy or if the linker does a non-standard order). Still its
something we should at least document.
Note 2: afaik it only broke the emacs *build*. I'm not 100% sure about that
(it IS 5 years ago) though.

Contrary to the comment "newer gccs do it by default", newer gcc versions
default to -maccumulate-outgoing-args only with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n,
and then only with some CPU settings.
Measured with an i386 defconfig, gcc 4.2.1 and kernel 2.6.23-rc1 ("orig" is
the plain kernel, "changed is with -maccumulate-outgoing-args removed):
$ ls -la vmlinux*
-rwxrwxr-x 1 bunk bunk 6269713 2007-07-24 22:19 vmlinux.changed

$
That's a 2.5% size increase that does for sure hurt small systems.
If the stack unwinder ever comes back and needs this as indicated in the
comment, adding it to the cflags when the user enabled the unwinder should be
a better option.

This patch removes the extern struct resource declarations for
data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource on x86 and declares that
three structures as static as done on other architectures like IA64.
On i386, these structures are moved to setup_32.c (from e820_32.c) because
that's code that is not specific to e820 and also required on EFI systems.
That makes the "extern" reference superfluous.
On x86_64, data_resource, code_resource and bss_resource are passed to
e820_reserve_resources() as arguments just as done on i386 and IA64. That
also avoids the "extern" reference and it's possible to make it static.

Howdy! Here's a simple janitorish patch for you:
This patch mainly hinges around two includes and their ramifications:
#include <i8259.h> which provides cached_{slave,master}_mask
#include <io_ports.h> which provides PIC_{MASTER,SLAVE}_{IMR,CMD}
Adding these two includes and using those half dozen or so definitions
removed 140+ lines of diffs between i8259_32.c and i8259_64.c, thus
making it easier for the real substantitive differences between them to
show up, and hopefully therefore making it easier to eventually merge
the two. All the warnings that checkpatch.pl throws (missing spaces
after commas and >80 character lines) exist intentionally to match
i8259_32.c.

To summarize: on Linux, SA_ONSTACK decides whether you are already on the
signal stack based on the value of the SP at the time of a signal. If
you are not already inside the range, you are not "on the signal stack"
and so the new signal handler frame starts over at the base of the signal
stack.
sigaltstack (and sigstack before it) was invented in BSD. There, the
SA_ONSTACK behavior has always been different. It uses a kernel state
flag to decide, rather than the SP value. When you first take an
SA_ONSTACK signal and switch to the alternate signal stack, it sets the
SS_ONSTACK flag in the thread's sigaltstack state in the kernel.
Thereafter you are "on the signal stack" and don't switch SP before
pushing a handler frame no matter what the SP value is. Only when you
sigreturn from the original handler context do you clear the SS_ONSTACK
flag so that a new handler frame will start over at the base of the
alternate signal stack.
The undesireable effect of the Linux behavior is that an overflow of the
alternate signal stack can not only go undetected, but lead to a ring
buffer effect of clobbering the original handler frame at the base of the
signal stack for each successive signal that comes just after the
overflow. This is what Shi Weihua's test case demonstrates. Normally
this does not come up because of the signal mask, but the test case uses
SA_NODEFER for its SIGSEGV handler.
The other subtle part of the existing Linux semantics is that a simple
longjmp out of a signal handler serves to take you off the signal stack
in a safe and reliable fashion without having used sigreturn (nor having
just returned from the handler normally, which means the same). After
the longjmp (or even informal stack switching not via any proper libc or
kernel interface), the alternate signal stack stands ready to be used
again.
A paranoid program would allocate a PROT_NONE red zone around its
alternate signal stack. Then a small overflow would trigger a SIGSEGV in
handler setup, and be fatal (core dump) whether or not SIGSEGV is
blocked. As with thread stack red zones, that cannot catch all overflows
(or underflows). e.g., a local array as large as page size allocated in
a function called from a handler, but not actually touched before more
calls push more stack, could cause an overflow that silently pushes into
some unrelated allocated pages.
The BSD behavior does not do anything in particular about overflow. But
it does at least avoid the wraparound or "ring buffer effect", so you'll
just get a straightforward all-out overflow down your address space past
the low end of the alternate signal stack. I don't know what the BSD
behavior is for longjmp out of an SA_ONSTACK handler.
The POSIX wording relating to sigaltstack is pretty minimal. I don't
think it speaks to this issue one way or another. (The program that
overflows its stack is clearly in undefined behavior territory of one
sort or another anyhow.)
Given the longjmp issue and the potential for highly subtle complications
in existing programs relying on this in arcane ways deep in their code, I
am very dubious about changing the behavior to the BSD style persistent
flag. I think Shi Weihua's patches have a similar effect by tracking the
SP used in the last handler setup.
I think it would be sensible for the signal handler setup code to detect
when it would itself be causing a stack overflow. Maybe something like
the following patch (untested). This issue exists in the same way on all
machines, so ideally they would all do a similar check.
When it's the handler function itself or its callees that cause the
overflow, rather than the signal handler frame setup alone crossing the
boundary, this still won't help. But I don't see any way to distinguish
that from the valid longjmp case.

x86: provide a DMI based port 0x80 I/O delay override.
Certain (HP) laptops experience trouble from our port 0x80 I/O delay
writes. This patch provides for a DMI based switch to the "alternate
diagnostic port" 0xed (as used by some BIOSes as well) for these.
David P. Reed confirmed that port 0xed works for him and provides a
proper delay. The symptoms of _not_ working are a hanging machine,
with "hwclock" use being a direct trigger.
Earlier versions of this attempted to simply use udelay(2), with the
2 being a value tested to be a nicely conservative upper-bound with
help from many on the linux-kernel mailinglist but that approach has
two problems.
First, pre-loops_per_jiffy calibration (which is post PIT init while
some implementations of the PIT are actually one of the historically
problematic devices that need the delay) udelay() isn't particularly
well-defined. We could initialise loops_per_jiffy conservatively (and
based on CPU family so as to not unduly delay old machines) which
would sort of work, but...
Second, delaying isn't the only effect that a write to port 0x80 has.
It's also a PCI posting barrier which some devices may be explicitly
or implicitly relying on. Alan Cox did a survey and found evidence
that additionally some drivers may be racy on SMP without the bus
locking outb.
Switching to an inb() makes the timing too unpredictable and as such,
this DMI based switch should be the safest approach for now. Any more
invasive changes should get more rigid testing first. It's moreover
only very few machines with the problem and a DMI based hack seems
to fit that situation.
This also introduces a command-line parameter "io_delay" to override
the DMI based choice again:
io_delay=<standard|alternate>
where "standard" means using the standard port 0x80 and "alternate"
port 0xed.
This retains the udelay method as a config (CONFIG_UDELAY_IO_DELAY) and
command-line ("io_delay=udelay") choice for testing purposes as well.
This does not change the io_delay() in the boot code which is using
the same port 0x80 I/O delay but those do not appear to be a problem
as David P. Reed reported the problem was already gone after using the
udelay version. He moreover reported that booting with "acpi=off" also
fixed things and seeing as how ACPI isn't touched until after this DMI
based I/O port switch I believe it's safe to leave the ones in the boot
code be.
The DMI strings from David's HP Pavilion dv9000z are in there already
and we need to get/verify the DMI info from other machines with the
problem, notably the HP Pavilion dv6000z.
This patch is partly based on earlier patches from Pavel Machek and
David P. Reed.

Michael Opdenacker reported:
For backward compatibility with earlier (< 2.6.24) kernels,
arch/i386/boot/bzImage or arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage symbolic links to
arch/x86/boot/bzImage are created when you build an x86 kernel. The
arch/i386 or arch/x86_64 directories are then created for this only
purpose.
Issue: these generated directories and symbolic links are *not cleaned
up* when you run "make mrproper" (and thus "make distclean"). This
disturbs the production of patches, because the source tree is left with
generated files and directories.
Sam has an alternative fix:
The directory is killed during make clean as opposed to make mrproper.

Looks like IRQ 31 is assigned to timer 3, even without the patch!
I wonder who wrote the number 31. But the manual says that it is
zero by default.
I think we should check whether the timer has been allocated an IRQ before
proceeding to assign one to it. Here is a patch that does this.
