vhost: fix signed/unsigned comparison

2011-01-10T08:03:39+00:00

To detect that a sequence number is done, we are doing math on unsigned
integers so the result is unsigned too. Not what was intended for the <=
comparison. The result is user stuck forever in flush call.
Convert to int to fix this.

Further, get rid of ({}) to make code clearer.

vhost: better variable name in logging

2010-12-09T14:00:10+00:00

We really store a page offset in write_address,
so rename it write_page to avoid confusion.

vhost: correctly set bits of dirty pages

2010-12-09T13:39:17+00:00

Fix two bugs in dirty page logging:
When counting pages we should increase address by 1 instead of
VHOST_PAGE_SIZE. Make log_write() correctly process requests
that cross pages with write_address not starting at page boundary.

vhost: get/put_user -> get/put_user

2010-11-04T11:22:12+00:00

We do access_ok checks on all ring values on an ioctl,
so we don't need to redo them on each access.

vhost: copy_to_user -> __copy_to_user

2010-11-04T11:22:11+00:00

We do access_ok checks at setup time, so we don't need to
redo them on each access.

vhost-net: batch use/unuse mm

2010-11-04T11:22:11+00:00

Move use/unuse mm to vhost.c which makes it possible to batch these
operations.

drivers/vhost/vhost.c: delete double assignment

2010-10-26T18:39:30+00:00

Delete successive assignments to the same location.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// 
@@
expression i;
@@

*i = ...;
 i = ...;
//
