This fixes various problems that cropped up with the vdso patches. - Patch 1 fixes an information leak to userspace. - Patches 2 and 3 fix the kernel build on gold. - Patches 4 and 5 fix Xen (I hope). - Patch 6 (optional) adds a trace event to vsyscall emulation. It will make it easier to handle performance regression reports :) [1]

Konrad, could you could test these on Xen and run 'test_vsyscall test' [1]? I don't have a usable Xen setup. Also, I'd appreciate a review of patches 4 and 5 from some

I have a general question about coefficients estimation of the mixed model. I simulated a very basic model: Y|b=X*\beta+Z*b +\sigma^2* diag(ni); b follows N(0,\psi) #i.e. bivariate normal where b is the latent variable, Z and X are ni*2 design matrices, sigma is the error variance, Y are longitudinal data, i.e. there are ni

Hi, Hyper-V TSC page clocksource is suitable for vDSO, however, the protocol defined by the hypervisor is different from VCLOCK_PVCLOCK. I implemented the required support re-using pvclock_page VVAR. Simple sysbench test shows the following results: Before: # time sysbench --test=memory --max-requests=500000 run ... real 1m22.618s user 0m50.193s sys 0m32.268s After: # time sysbench

Hm, that bug has been closed as resolved but I still see the problem: $ clang --version clang version 3.8.0 (trunk 250848) (llvm/trunk 250846) Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/local/bin configure:4042: ./conftest FATAL: Code 0x5615faea43f0 is out of application range.

Hi, merge window is about to close so I hope it's OK to make another try here. Changes since v2: - Add explicit READ_ONCE() to not rely on 'volatile' [Andy Lutomirski] - rdtsc() -> rdtsc_ordered() [Andy Lutomirski] - virt_rmb() -> smp_rmb() [Thomas Gleixner, Andy Lutomirski] Thomas, Andy, it seems the only blocker for the series was the ambiguity with TSC page read algorithm.

Thanks. I actually checked the IR code generated, it seems inline assembly is being handled correctly. The preprocessing is also being done correctly. Here is the asm-offsets.i file snippet.. ... builtin_offsetof(struct crypto_tfm,__crt_ctx))); asm volatile("\n->" : : ); asm volatile("\n->" "__NR_syscall_max" " %0 " "sizeof(syscalls) - 1"
