* mips, arc: fix build failureDavid Rientjes2012-11-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using a cross-compiler to fix another issue, the following build error occurred for mips defconfig: arch/mips/fw/arc/misc.c: In function 'ArcHalt': arch/mips/fw/arc/misc.c:25:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'local_irq_disable' Fix it up by including irqflags.h.

* MIPS: Malta: Fix interupt number of CBUS UART.Ralf Baechle2012-11-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CBUS UART's interrupt number was wrong conflicting with the interrupt being tied to the Intel PIIX4. Since the PIIX4's interrupt is registered before the CBUS UART which is not being used on most systems this would not be noticed. Attempts to open the ttyS2 CBUS UART would result in: genirq: Flags mismatch irq 18. 00000000 (serial) vs. 00010000 (XT-PIC cascade) serial_link_irq_chain: request failed: -16 for irq: 18 Qemu was written to match the kernel so will need to be fixed also.

* MIPS: Make irqflags.h functions preempt-safe for non-mipsr2 cpusJim Quinlan2012-11-093-133/+253
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For non MIPSr2 processors, such as the BMIPS 5000, calls to arch_local_irq_disable() and others may be preempted, and in doing so a stale value may be restored to c0_status. This fix disables preemption for such processors prior to the call and enables it after the call. Those functions that needed this fix have been "outlined" to mips-atomic.c, as they are no longer good candidates for inlining. This bug was observed in a BMIPS 5000, occuring once every few hours in a continuous reboot test. It was traced to the write_lock_irq() function which was being invoked in release_task() in exit.c. By placing a number of "nops" inbetween the mfc0/mtc0 pair in arch_local_irq_disable(), which is called by write_lock_irq(), we were able to greatly increase the occurance of this bug. Similarly, the application of this commit silenced the bug.

* MIPS: Remove irqflags.h dependency from bitops.hJim Quinlan2012-11-095-83/+214
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "else clause" of most functions in bitops.h invoked raw_local_irq_{save,restore}() and in doing so had a dependency on irqflags.h. This fix moves said code to bitops.c, removing the dependency.

* MIPS: compat: Implement is_compat_task() by testing for 32-bit address space.Ralf Baechle2012-11-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | So far is_compat_task() was testing for 32-bit registers if O32 support was enabled and if O32 support was disabled but N32 enabled it was testing for 32-bit address space. So if both O32 and N32 were enabled a N32 task was not considered a compat task, whops. This still leaves potential cases where O32 and N32 need different treatment unsolved. But that's another commit. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The issues exists since commit add6eb04776db4189ea89f596cbcde31b899be9d [Synthesize TLB exception handlers at runtime.] in 2.6.10 and went unnoticed for so long because the relocations for the affected branches got computed to do something *almost* sensible.

| * MIPS: Make __{,n,u}delay declarations match definitions and generic delay.hDavid Daney2012-10-162-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At some recent point arch/mips/include/asm/delay.h has started being included into csrc-octeon.c where the __?delay() functions are defined. This causes a compile failure due to conflicting declarations and definitions of the functions. It turns out that the generic definitions in arch/mips/lib/delay.c also conflict. Proposed fix: Declare the functions to take unsigned long parameters just like asm-generic (and x86) does. Update __delay to agree (__ndelay and __udelay need no change). Bonus: Get rid of 'inline' from __delay() definition, as it is globally visible, and the compiler should be making this decision itself (it does in fact inline the function without being told to).

Possibly they should be just deleted, but it's possible that they'll acquire generic-y or genhdr-y lines in future, so I'm keeping them around for the moment. Note that MIPS will compile happily if the file is deleted instead. I haven't tested TILE, but I suspect it will be the same there.

| * | MIPS: Align swapper_pg_dir to 64K for better TLB Refill code.David Daney2012-10-112-10/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We can save an instruction in the TLB Refill path for kernel mappings by aligning swapper_pg_dir on a 64K boundary. The address of swapper_pg_dir can be generated with a single LUI instead of LUI/{D}ADDUI. The alignment of __init_end is bumped up to 64K so there are no holes between it and swapper_pg_dir, which is placed at the very beginning of .bss. The alignment of invalid_pmd_table and invalid_pte_table can be relaxed to PAGE_SIZE. We do this by using __page_aligned_bss, which has the added benefit of eliminating alignment holes in .bss.

I have had no problems with it across various SGI systems over the years. To quote the post here: http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2004-12/msg00000.html "the atomic functions use so far memory references for the inline assembler to access the semaphore. This can lead to additional instructions in the ll/sc loop, because newer compilers don't expand the memory reference any more but leave it to the assembler. The appended patch uses registers instead, and makes the ll/sc arguments more explicit. In some cases it will lead also to better register scheduling because the register isn't bound to an output any more."

Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible. To this end, I've defined three new config bools: (*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic mod_arch_specific struct. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. (*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message. Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are two arches that do this. With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file. Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

The crash signature looks like this: kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed Call Trace: [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 [<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54 The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed to happen.

The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
