* ARM: Add .text annotations where required after __CPUINIT removalRussell King2013-08-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Commit 8bd26e3a7 (arm: delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from all ARM users) caused some code to leak into sections which are discarded through the removal of __CPUINIT annotations. Add appropriate .text annotations to bring these back into the kernel text. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* arm: delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from all ARM usersPaul Gortmaker2013-07-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the ARM uses of the __cpuinit macros from C code, and all __CPUINIT from assembly code. It also had two ".previous" section statements that were paired off against __CPUINIT (aka .section ".cpuinit.text") that also get removed here.

* ARM: mpu: protect the vectors page with an MPU regionJonathan Austin2013-06-171-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without an MMU it is possible for userspace programs to start executing code in places that they have no business executing. The MPU allows some level of protection against this. This patch protects the vectors page from access by userspace processes. Userspace tasks that dereference a null pointer are already protected by an svc at 0x0 that kills them. However when tasks use an offset from a null pointer (eg a function in a null struct) they miss this carefully placed svc and enter the exception vectors in user mode, ending up in the kernel. This patch causes programs that do this to receive a SEGV instead of happily entering the kernel in user-mode, and hence avoid a 'Bad Mode' panic. As part of this change it is necessary to make sigreturn happen via the stack when there is not an sa_restorer function. This change is invisible to userspace, and irrelevant to code compiled using a uClibc toolchain, which always uses an sa_restorer function. Because we don't get to remap the vectors in !MMU kuser_helpers are not in a defined location, and hence aren't usable. This means we don't need to worry about keeping them accessible from PL0 Signed-off-by: Jonathan Austin <jonathan.austin@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> CC: Nicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org> CC: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
* ARM: mpu: add MPU initialisation for secondary coresJonathan Austin2013-06-071-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The MPU initialisation on the primary core is performed in two stages, one minimal stage to ensure the CPU can boot and a second one after sanity_check_meminfo. As the memory configuration is known by the time we boot secondary cores only a single step is necessary, provided the values for DRSR are passed to secondaries. This patch implements this arrangement. The configuration generated for the MPU regions is made available to the secondary core, which can then use the asm MPU intialisation code to program a complete region configuration. This is necessary for SMP configurations without an MMU, as the MPU initialisation is the only way to ensure that memory is specified as 'shared'.

* ARM: mpu: add early bring-up code for the ARMv7 PMSA-compliant MPUJonathan Austin2013-06-071-0/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds initial support for using the MPU, which is necessary for SMP operation on PMSAv7 processors because it is the only way to ensure memory is shared. This is an initial patch and full SMP support is added later in this series. The setup of the MPU is performed in a way analagous to that for the MMU: Very early initialisation before the C environment is brought up, followed by a sanity check and more complete initialisation in C. This patch provides the simplest possible memory region configuration: MPU_PROBE_REGION: Reserved for probing MPU details, not enabled MPU_BG_REGION: A 'background' region that specifies all memory strongly ordered MPU_RAM_REGION: A single shared, cacheable, normal region for the valid RAM. In this early initialisation code we simply map the whole of the address space with the BG_REGION and (at least) the kernel with the RAM_REGION. The MPU has region alignment constraints that require us to round past the end of the kernel. As region 2 has a higher priority than region 1, it overrides the strongly- ordered behaviour for RAM only. Subsequent patches will add more complete initialisation from the C-world and support for bringing up secondary CPUs.

* ARM: 6999/1: head, zImage: Always Enter the kernel in ARM stateDave Martin2011-07-191-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the documented kernel entry requirements are not explicit about whether the kernel should be entered in ARM or Thumb, leading to an ambiguitity about how to enter Thumb-2 kernels. As a result, the kernel is reliant on the zImage decompressor to enter the kernel proper in the correct instruction set state. This patch changes the boot entry protocol for head.S and Image to be the same as for zImage: in all cases, the kernel is now entered in ARM. Documentation/arm/Booting is updated to reflect this new policy. A different rule will be needed for Cortex-M class CPUs as and when support for those lands in mainline, since these CPUs don't support the ARM instruction set at all: a note is added to the effect that the kernel must be entered in Thumb on such systems.

* ARM: Defer lookup of machine_type to setup.cRussell King2011-02-151-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the debug macros no longer depend on the machine type information, the machine type lookup can be deferred to setup_arch() in setup.c which simplifies the code somewhat. We also move the __error_a functionality into setup.c for displaying a message when a bad machine ID is passed to the kernel via the LL debug code. We also log this into the kernel ring buffer which makes it possible to retrieve the message via a debugger. Original idea from Grant Likely.

* [ARM] nommu: confirms the CR_V bit in nommu modeHyok S. Choi2006-09-281-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In nommu mode, the exception vector location depends on the platforms. Some of the implementations may have some special exception control forwarding method in their ROM/flash and for some of them has its own re-mapping mechanism by the h/w.
