The 3.19 kernel will have support for Intel MPX, including
a pair of new prctl() calls (PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT and
PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT) for enabling and disabling the
kernel's management of the "bounds tables". Add a
descriptions of the interface.
The kernel patches were written by myself and another Intel
developer.

This change clarifies the behavior of the PERF_FLAG_FD_OUTPUT and
PERF_FLAG_FD_NO_GROUP flags to perf_event_open(), and removes
the related FIXME comments.
While writing tests to validate the behavior of these flags I
discovered that PERF_FLAG_FD_OUTPUT has been broken since the
2.6.35 kernel release.

seccomp.2: srcfix: Remove a FIXME
...
Quoting Daniel's response to my FIXME
> Still hoping to hear from Will Drewy regarding this FIXME in the
> page source:
>
> .\" FIXME What is the significance of the line
> .\" ftest->code = BPF_LDX | BPF_W | BPF_ABS;
> .\" in kernel/seccomp.c::seccomp_check_filter()?
This came in from our rework via commit bd4cf0ed331a ("net: filter:
rework/optimize internal BPF interpreter's instruction set"), and
is kernel-internal only, and unused in classic BPF. It translates
into A = *(u32 *) (ctx + K) and will basically load an offset from
the populated seccomp_data (= ctx) to A. For the man-page itself
it has therefore no relevance, hope that clarifies it.

This nr_segs==0 case is no-op; the call succeeds and no

See fs/splice.c vmsplice syscall which contains:
if (unlikely(nr_segs > UIO_MAXIOV))
return -EINVAL;
else if (unlikely(!nr_segs))
return 0;
And looking at the git log suggests that the code was always thus.

execve.2: Remove unneeded ".sh" extension in interpreter script example
...
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84701
As noted by C. Alex North-Keys:
1) Command name extensions considered harmful: Adding ".sh", or
any other unneeded extension, unnecessarily duplicates meta
information already present in the interpreter directive,
exposing an implementation detail that then ends up explicitly
part of other programs running this one. Later, when such a
script is replaced with a new version in Python, C, etc., the
useless ".sh" has to be retained to avoid breaking those other
programs' calls to this one, and now has a stark antifunction
of lying about the script's content and occasionally causing
admins to run undefined experiments as root (like
"bash -x ./reallyperlscript.sh"). Such extensions, while fine
in DOS which ignores extensions explicitly, is a serious flaw
in Unix-targeted script writing. Canonical documentation
from the Linux manual should not support such a flawed idiom -
recommending against it would be preferred.
A more extensive rant against them can be found at:
http://www.talisman.org/~erlkonig/documents/commandname-extensions-considered-harmful
2) The space after "#!" in the interpreter directive is minor -
and the kernel's fs/binfmt_script.c specifically allows for it -
but versions of unix have length limits from ~30 characters to
Linux's 127 or so (if that number's correct) so the space does
have a cost. Most scripts I've seen lack that space, and
there's no real reason to encourage it.

mount.2: Clarify use of 'mountflags' and 'data' for MS_REMOUNT
...
Quoting Eric Biederman:
One thing that has come up recently (in 3 separate
implementations) is that mount(MS_REMOUNT|...,...) must include
all of the mount flags that need to be preserved. People
creating read-only bind mounts tend to miss that and the locked
flags in mount namespaces. That issue was flushed out now that
the kernel is now not allowing most mount flags to be cleared in
mount namespaces. The interface is non-intuitive and we should
at least document the weirdness.
