TOMOYO: fix __setup handlers return values

2022-04-20T07:06:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 39844b7e3084baecef52d1498b5fa81afa2cefa9 ]

__setup() handlers should return 1 if the parameter is handled.
Returning 0 causes the entire string to be added to init's
environment strings (limited to 32 strings), unnecessarily polluting it.

Using the documented strings "TOMOYO_loader=string1" and
"TOMOYO_trigger=string2" causes an Unknown parameter message:
  Unknown kernel command line parameters
    "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5 TOMOYO_loader=string1 \
     TOMOYO_trigger=string2", will be passed to user space.

and these strings are added to init's environment string space:
  Run /sbin/init as init process
    with arguments:
     /sbin/init
    with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc5
     TOMOYO_loader=string1
     TOMOYO_trigger=string2

With this change, these __setup handlers act as expected,
and init's environment is not polluted with these strings.

mm: replace get_user_pages_remote() write/force parameters with gup_flags

2016-10-19T15:12:02+00:00

This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_user_pages_remote() and
replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in
callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and
hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.

vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash

2016-06-11T03:21:46+00:00

We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.
