[ Upstream commit b029628be267cba3c7684ec684749fe3e4372398 ]

Richard Henderson &lt;richard.henderson@linaro.org&gt; writes[1]:

&gt; There was a Spec benchmark (I forget which) which was memory bound and ran
&gt; twice as fast with 32-bit pointers.
&gt;
&gt; I copied the idea from DEC to the ELF abi, but never did all the other work
&gt; to allow the toolchain to take advantage.
&gt;
&gt; Amusingly, a later Spec changed the benchmark data sets to not fit into a
&gt; 32-bit address space, specifically because of this.
&gt;
&gt; I expect one could delete the ELF bit and personality and no one would
&gt; notice. Not even the 10 remaining Alpha users.

In [2] it was pointed out that parts of setarch weren't working
properly on alpha because it has it's own SET_PERSONALITY
implementation.  In the discussion that followed Richard Henderson
pointed out that the 32bit pointer support for alpha was never
completed.

Fix this by removing alpha's 32bit pointer support.

As a bit of paranoia refuse to execute any alpha binaries that have
the EF_ALPHA_32BIT flag set.  Just in case someone somewhere has
binaries that try to use alpha's 32bit pointer support.

Add the four syscalls setxattrat(), getxattrat(), listxattrat() and
removexattrat().  Those can be used to operate on extended attributes,
especially security related ones, either relative to a pinned directory
or on a file descriptor without read access, avoiding a
/proc/&lt;pid&gt;/fd/&lt;fd&gt; detour, requiring a mounted procfs.

One use case will be setfiles(8) setting SELinux file contexts
("security.selinux") without race conditions and without a file
descriptor opened with read access requiring SELinux read permission.

Use the do_{name}at() pattern from fs/open.c.

Pass the value of the extended attribute, its length, and for
setxattrat(2) the command (XATTR_CREATE or XATTR_REPLACE) via an added
struct xattr_args to not exceed six syscall arguments and not
merging the AT_* and XATTR_* flags.

[AV: fixes by Christian Brauner folded in, the entire thing rebased on
top of {filename,file}_...xattr() primitives, treatment of empty
pathnames regularized.  As the result, AT_EMPTY_PATH+NULL handling
is cheap, so f...(2) can use it]

The mmap() callbacks should not modify the struct
bin_attribute passed as argument.
Enforce this by marking the argument as const.

As there are not many callback implementers perform this change
throughout the tree at once.

The mmap() callbacks should not modify the struct
bin_attribute passed as argument.
Enforce this by marking the argument as const.

As there are not many callback implementers perform this change
throughout the tree at once.

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

Pull 'struct fd' updates from Al Viro:
 "Just the 'struct fd' layout change, with conversion to accessor
  helpers"

* tag 'pull-stable-struct_fd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  add struct fd constructors, get rid of __to_fd()
  struct fd: representation change
  introduce fd_file(), convert all accessors to it.
