From 600715dcdf567c86f8b2c6173fcfb4b873e25a19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2008 01:31:45 -0700 Subject: generic: add phys_addr_t for holding physical addresses Add a kernel-wide "phys_addr_t" which is guaranteed to be able to hold any physical address. By default it equals the word size of the architecture, but a 32-bit architecture can set ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT if it needs a 64-bit phys_addr_t.

This seems to be OK, because in fact the userspace won't see this error, the task will dequeue SIGKILL and exit. However, /sbin/init is different, it will dequeue SIGKILL, ignore it, and return to the user-space with the bogus -EIO. Change the code to return the error code from lock_page_killable(), -EINTR. This doesn't fix the bug, but perhaps makes sense anyway. Imho, with this change the code looks a bit more logical, and the "good" init should handle the spurious EINTR or short read. Afaics we can also change lock_page_killable() to return -ERESTARTNOINTR, but this can't prevent the short reads.
