diff-grsec-2.1.10-tpe-core-20071010
Patch from Alexandr Andreev <aandreev@openvz.org>
[PATCH] grsecurity: TPE feature
This patch is a part of big grsecure-2.1.10 patch.
This patch doesn't contain virtualization support, and source code looks like original grsecure source as much as possible.
V2 - added TPE check in mmap()/mprotect() V3 - removed exec_file; added grsec_lock feature
Bug #92177.
diff-grsec-2.1.10-tpe-virt-20071010
Patch from Alexandr Andreev <aandreev@openvz.org>
[PATCH] grsecurity: TPE feature virtualization
Bug #92177.
diff-ms-faster-oom-20071023
Patch from Denis Lunev <den@openvz.org>
Exit from OOMed process ASAP rather then dig in try_to_free_pages().
It can spend really lots of time in try_to_free_pages() (up to minutes), while process selected for OOM should die ASAP.
Bug #79344.
diff-ms-net-bridge-via-eth-f-20071022
Patch from Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org>
When via_phys_dev flag is set then bridge doesn't have any ip address. Therefore ip-traffic HW->VE passes only if bridge has the same MAC-address as real ethernet interface. This patch corrects checking for input packets.
Bug #92737.
diff-smp-nmi-show-regs-b
Patch from Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org>
[PATCH] fix bust_spinlocks() race when doing Alt-SysRq-P via NMI IPI
smp_show_regs() function calls bust_spinlocks() which is not protected by any lock.
Just call bust_spinlocks() under smp_show_regs lock.
Bug #92669.
diff-ve-proc-sound-20071015
Patch from Evgeny Kravtsunov <emkravts@openvz.org>
[PATCH] hide global /proc/asound entry from VE
create_proc_entry() in sound/core/info.c is called with gobal parent == &proc_root, thus /proc/asound is global. Make it VE0 local.
Bug #92723.
