2012-01-09ARM: twd: register clockevents device before enabling PPIWill Deacon
The smp_twd clockevents driver currently enables the local timer PPI before the clockevents device is registered. This can lead to a kernel panic if a spurious timer interrupt is generated before registration has completed since the kernel will treat it as an IPI timer. This patch moves the clockevents device registration before the IRQ unmasking so that we can always handle timer interrupts once they can occur.

2011-12-09ARM: 7161/1: errata: no automatic store buffer drainWill Deacon
commit 11ed0ba1754841316d4095478944300acf19acc3 upstream. This patch implements a workaround for PL310 erratum 769419. On revisions of the PL310 prior to r3p2, the Store Buffer does not automatically drain. This can cause normal, non-cacheable writes to be retained when the memory system is idle, leading to suboptimal I/O performance for drivers using coherent DMA. This patch adds an optional wmb() call to the cpu_idle loop. On systems with an outer cache, this causes an explicit flush of the store buffer.

2011-10-20ARM: smpboot: Enable irqs on secondary CPU after marking it online/activeThomas Gleixner
Patch is the last version from tglx on Oct 7. Discussion is at: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/131919 The original commit message for the first patch version: Frank Rowand reported: I have a consistent (every boot) hang on boot with the RT patches. With a few hacks to get console output, I get: rcu_preempt_state detected stalls on CPUs/tasks I have also replicated the problem on the ARM RealView (in tree) and without the RT patches. The problem ended up being caused by the allowed cpus mask being set to all possible cpus for the ksoftirqd on the secondary processors. So the RCU softirq was never executing on the secondary cpu. The problem was that ksoftirqd was woken on the secondary processors before the secondary processors were online. This led to allowed cpus being set to all cpus. wake_up_process() try_to_wake_up() select_task_rq() if (... || !cpu_online(cpu)) select_fallback_rq(task_cpu(p), p) ... /* No more Mr. Nice Guy. */ dest_cpu = cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback(p) do_set_cpus_allowed(p, cpu_possible_mask) # Thus ksoftirqd can now run on any cpu... </report> The reason is that the ARM SMP boot code for the secondary CPUs enables interrupts before the newly brought up CPU is marked online and active. That causes a wakeup of ksoftirqd or a wakeup of any other kernel thread which is affine to the brought up CPU break that threads affinity and therefor being scheduled on already online CPUs. This problem has been observed on x86 before and the only solution is to mark the CPU online and wait for the CPU active bit before the point where interrupts are enabled.

2011-09-16Revert "ARM: vfp: fix a hole in VFP thread migration"Colin Cross
This reverts commit c0822d4f0bcccf227b751cfe1c047f3bdae0f1ce.
2011-09-11ARM: vfp: fix a hole in VFP thread migrationRussell King
Fix a hole in the VFP thread migration. Lets define two threads. Thread 1, we'll call 'interesting_thread' which is a thread which is running on CPU0, using VFP (so vfp_current_hw_state[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate) and gets migrated off to CPU1, where it continues execution of VFP instructions. Thread 2, we'll call 'new_cpu0_thread' which is the thread which takes over on CPU0. This has also been using VFP, and last used VFP on CPU0, but doesn't use it again. The following code will be executed twice: cpu = thread->cpu; /* * On SMP, if VFP is enabled, save the old state in * case the thread migrates to a different CPU. The * restoring is done lazily. */ if ((fpexc & FPEXC_EN) && vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]) { vfp_save_state(vfp_current_hw_state[cpu], fpexc); vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]->hard.cpu = cpu; } /* * Thread migration, just force the reloading of the * state on the new CPU in case the VFP registers * contain stale data. */ if (thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu != cpu) vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] = NULL; The first execution will be on CPU0 to switch away from 'interesting_thread'. interesting_thread->cpu will be 0. So, vfp_current_hw_state[0] points at interesting_thread->vfpstate. The hardware state will be saved, along with the CPU number (0) that it was executing on. 'thread' will be 'new_cpu0_thread' with new_cpu0_thread->cpu = 0. Also, because it was executing on CPU0, new_cpu0_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, and so the thread migration check is not triggered. This means that vfp_current_hw_state[0] remains pointing at interesting_thread. The second execution will be on CPU1 to switch _to_ 'interesting_thread'. So, 'thread' will be 'interesting_thread' and interesting_thread->cpu now will be 1. The previous thread executing on CPU1 is not relevant to this so we shall ignore that. We get to the thread migration check. Here, we discover that interesting_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, yet interesting_thread->cpu is now 1, indicating thread migration. We set vfp_current_hw_state[1] to NULL. So, at this point vfp_current_hw_state[] contains the following: [0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate [1] = NULL Our interesting thread now executes a VFP instruction, takes a fault which loads the state into the VFP hardware. Now, through the assembly we now have: [0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate [1] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate CPU1 stops due to ptrace (and so saves its VFP state) using the thread switch code above), and CPU0 calls vfp_sync_hwstate(). if (vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &thread->vfpstate) { vfp_save_state(&thread->vfpstate, fpexc | FPEXC_EN); BANG, we corrupt interesting_thread's VFP state by overwriting the more up-to-date state saved by CPU1 with the old VFP state from CPU0. Fix this by ensuring that we have sane semantics for the various state describing variables: 1. vfp_current_hw_state[] points to the current owner of the context information stored in each CPUs hardware, or NULL if that state information is invalid. 2. thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu always contains the most recent CPU number which the state was loaded into or NR_CPUS if no CPU owns the state. So, for a particular CPU to be a valid owner of the VFP state for a particular thread t, two things must be true: vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &t->vfpstate && t->vfpstate.hard.cpu == cpu. and that is valid from the moment a CPU loads the saved VFP context into the hardware. This gives clear and consistent semantics to interpreting these variables. This patch also fixes thread copying, ensuring that t->vfpstate.hard.cpu is invalidated, otherwise CPU0 may believe it was the last owner. The hole can happen thus: - thread1 runs on CPU2 using VFP, migrates to CPU3, exits and thread_info freed. - New thread allocated from a previously running thread on CPU2, reusing memory for thread1 and copying vfp.hard.cpu. At this point, the following are true: new_thread1->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 2 &new_thread1->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[2] Lastly, this also addresses thread flushing in a similar way to thread copying. Hole is: - thread runs on CPU0, using VFP, migrates to CPU1 but does not use VFP. - thread calls execve(), so thread flush happens, leaving vfp_current_hw_state[0] intact. This vfpstate is memset to 0 causing thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0. - thread migrates back to CPU0 before using VFP. At this point, the following are true: thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 0 &thread->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[0] Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2011-06-17ARM: 6963/1: Thumb-2: Relax relocation requirements for non-function symbolsDave Martin
The "Thumb bit" of a symbol is only really meaningful for function symbols (STT_FUNC). However, sometimes a branch is relocated against a non-function symbol; for example, PC-relative branches to anonymous assembler local symbols are typically fixed up against the start-of-section symbol, which is not a function symbol. Some inline assembler generates references of this type, such as fixup code generated by macros in <asm/uaccess.h>. The existing relocation code for R_ARM_THM_CALL/R_ARM_THM_JUMP24 interprets this case as an error, because the target symbol appears to be an ARM symbol; but this is really not the case, since the target symbol is just a base in these cases. The addend defines the precise offset to the target location, but since the addend is encoded in a non-interworking Thumb branch instruction, there is no explicit Thumb bit in the addend. Because these instructions never interwork, the implied Thumb bit in the addend is 1, and the destination is Thumb by definition. This patch removes the extraneous Thumb bit check for non-function symbols, enabling modules containing the affected relocation types to be loaded. No modification to the actual relocation code is required, since this code does not take bit[0] of the location->destination offset into account in any case. Function symbols are always checked for interworking conflicts, as before.

This also fixes the read function so it works when the trace buffer is larger than the buffer passed in from user space. The old version would reset the trace buffer pointers after every read, so the second call to read would always return 0.

We can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range because the flush can fault. If we fault on a user address, the page fault handler will try to take mmap_sem again. Since both places acquire the read lock, most of the time it succeeds. However, if another thread tries to acquire the write lock on the mmap_sem (e.g. mmap) in between the call to flush_cache_user_range and the fault, the down_read in do_page_fault will deadlock. Also, since we really can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range AND vma is actually unused by the flush itself, get rid of vma as an argument.

2011-06-06ARM: 6952/1: fix lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"Ming Lei
This patch fixes the lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"[1]. After entering __irq_usr, arm core will disable interrupt automatically, but __irq_usr does not annotate the irq disable, so lockdep may complain the warning if it has chance to check this in irq handler. This patch adds trace_hardirqs_off in __irq_usr before entering irq_handler to handle the irq, also calls ret_to_user_from_irq to avoid calling disable_irq again. This is also a fix for irq off tracer.

* setns: ns: Wire up the setns system call Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to addition of sendmmsg system call
2011-05-28ns: Wire up the setns system callEric W. Biederman
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked at closely and I can't find any problems. setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I don't expect any weird architecture porting problems. While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was new in the 2.6.39. v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6 v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts. v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree. >  arch/blackfin/include/asm/unistd.h     |    3 ++- >  arch/blackfin/mach-common/entry.S      |    1 + Acked-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Oh - ia64 wiring looks good.

2011-05-26ARM: 6938/1: fiq: Refactor {get,set}_fiq_regs() for Thumb-2Dave Martin
* To remove the risk of inconvenient register allocation decisions by the compiler, these functions are separated out as pure assembler. * The apcs frame manipulation code is not applicable for Thumb-2 (and also not easily compatible). Since it's not essential to have a full frame on these leaf assembler functions, the frame manipulation is removed, in the interests of simplicity. * Split up ldm/stm instructions to be compatible with Thumb-2, as well as avoiding instruction forms deprecated on >= ARMv7.
