* [ARM] nommu: uaccess tweaksRussell King2006-06-283-7/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MMUless systems have only one address space for all threads, so both the usual access_ok() checks, and the exception handling do not make much sense. Hence, discard the fixup and exception tables at link time, use memcpy/memset for the user copy/clearing functions, and define the permission check macros to be constants. Some of this patch was derived from the equivalent patch by Hyok S. Choi. Signed-off-by: Hyok S. Choi <hyok.choi@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | Since there can be no fixed location for the TLS value with nommu systems, we must provide TLS register emulation in order to support TLS binaries on CPUs without the thread register.

* [ARM] Remove the __arch_* layer from uaccess.hRussell King2006-06-287-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | Back in the days when we had armo (26-bit) and armv (32-bit) combined, we had an additional layer to the uaccess macros to ensure correct typing. Since we no longer have 26-bit in this tree, we no longer need this layer, so eliminate it. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

* [PATCH] m68knommu: remove useless compiler argsPhilipe De Muyter2006-06-271-10/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here is a small patch that made my kernel .text segment shrink by 8k IIRC on my 5272-based board, by removing `-Wa,-S' from CFLAGS. The `-Wa,-S' option prevents `gas' from using short forms of jsr. Without it, `gas' replaces `jsr xxx.l' (6 bytes) by `jsr xxx@pc' (4 bytes) when possible. On 5272, both forms are equally fast. The `-Wa,-m5307' option is useless, because gcc already gives it to `gas' from the `-m5307' option. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs entries 'sched_mc_power_savings' and 'sched_smt_power_savings' in /sys/devices/system/cpu/ control the MC/SMT power savings policy for the scheduler.

Its handy for the Soekris.com net-4801, which has both chips. These patches have been seen recently on Kernel-Mentors, and then Kernel-Newbies ML, where Jesper Juhl kindly reviewed it. His feedback has been incorporated. Thanks Jesper ! Its also gone to soekris-tech@soekris.com for possible testing by linux folks, I've gotten 1 promise so far. Theyre mostly BSD folk over there, but we'll see.. Device-file & Sysfs The driver preserves the existing device-file interface, including the write/cmd set, but adds v to 'view' the pin-settings & configs by inducing, via gpio_dump(), a dev_info() call. Its a fairly crappy way to get status, but it sticks to the syslog approach, conservatively. Allowing users to voluntarily trigger logging is good, it gives them a familiar way to confirm their app's control & use of the pins, and I've thus reduced the pin-mode-updates from dev_info to dev_dbg. I've recently bolted on a proto sysfs interface for both new drivers. Im not including those patches here; they (the patch + doc-pre-patch) are still quite raw (and unreviewed on KNML), and since they 'invent' a convention for GPIO, a proper vetting is needed. Since this patchset is much bigger than my previous ones, Id like to keep things simpler, and address it 1st, before bolting on more stuff. The driver-split The Geode CPU and the PC-87366 Super-IO chip have GPIO units which share a common pin-architecture (same pin features, with same bits controlling), but with different addressing mechanics and port organizations. The vintage driver expresses the pin capabilities with pin-mode commands [OoPpTt],etc that change the pin configurations, and since the 2 chips share pin-arch, we can reuse the read(), write() commands, once the implementation is suitably adjusted. The patchset adds a vtable: struct nsc_gpio_ops, to abstract the existing gpio operations, then adjusts fileops.write() code to invoke operations via that vtable. Driver specific open()s set private_data to the vtable so its available for use by write(). The vtable gets the gpio_dump() too, since its user-friendly, and (could be construed as) part of the current device-file interface. To support use of dev_dbg() in write() & _dump(), the vtable gets a dev ptr too, set by both scx200 & pc8736x _gpio drivers. heres how the pins are presented in syslog: [ 1890.176223] scx200_gpio.0: io00: 0x0044 TS OD PUE EDGE LO DEBOUNCE [ 1890.287223] scx200_gpio.0: io01: 0x0003 OE PP PUD EDGE LO nsc_gpio.c: new file is new home of several file-ops methods, which are modified to get their vtable from filp->private_data, and use it where needed. scx200_gpio.c: keeps some of its existing gpio routines, but now wires them up via the vtable (they're invoked by nsc_gpio.c:nsc_gpio_write() thru this vtable). A driver-spcific open() initializes filp->private_data with the vtable. Once the split is clean, and the scx200_gpio driver is working, we copy and modify the function and variable names, and rework the access-method bodies for the different addressing scheme.

* [PATCH] vdso: randomize the i386 vDSO by moving it into a vmaIngo Molnar2006-06-277-12/+150
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it. Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do single-stepping and other debugging features. It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the VDSO). There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore. There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned on/off. (This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.) This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell started this patch and i completed it.

* [PATCH] fix broken vm86 interrupt/signal handlingAleksey Gorelov2006-06-271-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c3ff8ec31c1249d268cd11390649768a12bec1b9 ("[PATCH] i386: Don't miss pending signals returning to user mode after signal processing") meant that vm86 interrupt/signal handling got broken for the case when vm86 is called from kernel space. In this scenario, if signal is pending because of vm86 interrupt, do_notify_resume/do_signal exits immediately due to user_mode() check, without processing any signals. Thus, resume_userspace handler is spinning in a tight loop with signal pending and TIF_SIGPENDING is set. Previously everything worked Ok. No in-tree usage of vm86() from kernel space exists, but I've heard about a number of projects out there which use vm86 calls from kernel, one of them being this, for instance: http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/vesafb-tng/ The following patch fixes the issue.

The orig_{e,r}ax needs to be < 0 to allow the signal code to distinguish between return from interrupt and return from syscall. With this change applied, NR_IRQS can be > 256. Xen extends the IRQ numbering space to include room for dynamically allocated virtual interrupts (in the range 256-511), which requires a more permissive interface to do_IRQ.

* [PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node structKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2006-06-2714-57/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With Goto-san's patch, we can add new pgdat/node at runtime. I'm now considering node-hot-add with cpu + memory on ACPI. I found acpi container, which describes node, could evaluate cpu before memory. This means cpu-hot-add occurs before memory hot add. In most part, cpu-hot-add doesn't depend on node hot add. But register_cpu(), which creates symbolic link from node to cpu, requires that node should be onlined before register_cpu(). When a node is onlined, its pgdat should be there. This patch-set holds off creating symbolic link from node to cpu until node is onlined. This removes node arguments from register_cpu(). Now, register_cpu() requires 'struct node' as its argument. But the array of struct node is now unified in driver/base/node.c now (By Goto's node hotplug patch). We can get struct node in generic way. So, this argument is not necessary now. This patch also guarantees add cpu under node only when node is onlined. It is necessary for node-hot-add vs. cpu-hot-add patch following this. Moreover, register_cpu calculates cpu->node_id by cpu_to_node() without regard to its 'struct node *root' argument. This patch removes it. Also modify callers of register_cpu()/unregister_cpu, whose args are changed by register-cpu-remove-node-struct patch.

* [PATCH] pgdat allocation and update for ia64 of memory hotplug: update pgdat ↵Yasunori Goto2006-06-271-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | address array This is to refresh node_data[] array for ia64. As I mentioned previous patches, ia64 has copies of information of pgdat address array on each node as per node data. At v2 of node_add, this function used stop_machine_run() to update them. (I wished that they were copied safety as much as possible.) But, in this patch, this arrays are just copied simply, and set node_online_map bit after completion of pgdat initialization. So, kernel must touch NODE_DATA() macro after checking node_online_map(). (Current code has already done it.) This is more simple way for just hot-add..... Note : It will be problem when hot-remove will occur, because, even if online_map bit is set, kernel may touch NODE_DATA() due to race condition. :-( Signed-off-by: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | address at system running This is a preparatory patch to make common code for updating of NODE_DATA() of ia64 between boottime and hotplug. Current code remembers pgdat address in mem_data which is used at just boot time. But its information can be used at hotplug time by moving to global value. The next patch uses this array.

* [PATCH] Register sysfs file for hotplugged new nodeYasunori Goto2006-06-273-31/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When new node becomes enable by hot-add, new sysfs file must be created for new node. So, if new node is enabled by add_memory(), register_one_node() is called to create it. In addition, I386's arch_register_node() and a part of register_nodes() of powerpc are consolidated to register_one_node() as a generic_code(). This is tested by Tiger4(IPF) with node hot-plug emulation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the name of old add_memory() to arch_add_memory. And use node id to get pgdat for the node at NODE_DATA(). Note: Powerpc's old add_memory() is defined as __devinit. However, add_memory() is usually called only after bootup. I suppose it may be redundant. But, I'm not well known about powerpc. So, I keep it. (But, __meminit is better at least.)
