Hi folks,
We stumble upon an issue while using an AF_ALG socket to compute a hash
(crc32) directly in the kernel (using splice magic)
The issue has been fixed AFAICS by Herbert Xu in
cc440a5b68873b7b98c3130d09a69a1b13acb0b7 in a rather isolated patch (three
lines diff)
I could validate

Hi folks,
Would a closefrom syscall (ie. close all fd above a certain fd) make sense in
the kernel, or is this something deemed /undesirable/ ?
Zheng Liu submitted a patch some time ago
(<1396941142-24821-1-git-send-email-wenqing...@taobao.com> ; (3)) to add this
feature, but with minor code

Looking at arch/i386/kernel/signal.c (and others) inside
setup_rt_frame(), the problem is pretty obvious:
err |= __put_user(current->sas_ss_sp,

Hi folks,
I have a probably louzy question regarding sigaction() behaviour when an
alternate signal stack is used: it seems that I can not get the user
stack reference in the ucontext_t stack context ; ie. the uc_stack
member contains reference of the alternate signal stack, not the stack
that

Timestamp of file modified through mmap are not changed in 2.6 (even

- on 2.4, timestamps are altered a few seconds after the program exits.
- on 2.6, timestamps are never altered.
Is this behaviour a normal behaviour ?
