fa771d0 metag: move irq enable out of irqflags.h on SMP The SMP version of arch_local_irq_enable() uses preempt_disable(), but <asm/irqflags.h> doesn't include <linux/preempt.h> causing the following errors on SMP when pstore/ftrace is enabled (caught by buildbot smp allyesconfig): In file included from include/linux/irqflags.h:15, from fs/pstore/ftrace.c:16: arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h: In function 'arch_local_irq_enable': arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h:84: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_disable' arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h:86: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_enable_no_resched' However <linux/preempt.h> cannot be easily included from <asm/irqflags.h> as it can cause circular include dependencies in the !SMP case, and potentially in the SMP case in the future. Therefore move the SMP implementation of arch_local_irq_enable() into traps.c and use an inline version of get_trigger_mask() which is also defined in traps.c for SMP. This adds an extra layer of function call / stack push when preempt_disable needs to call other functions, however in the non-preemptive SMP case it should be about as fast, as it was already calling the get_trigger_mask() function which is now used inline.

bc3966b metag: ptrace The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and from the signal context. struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general purpose register context. struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH* registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay taking place. struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in hand optimised data loops. Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers aren't yet exposed through ptrace.

373cd78 metag: Memory handling Meta has instructions for accessing: - bytes - GETB (1 byte) - words - GETW (2 bytes) - doublewords - GETD (4 bytes) - longwords - GETL (8 bytes) All accesses must be aligned. Unaligned accesses can be detected and made to fault on Meta2, however it isn't possible to fix up unaligned writes so we don't bother fixing up reads either. This patch adds metag memory handling code including: - I/O memory (io.h, ioremap.c): Actually any virtual memory can be accessed with these helpers. A part of the non-MMUable address space is used for memory mapped I/O. The ioremap() function is implemented one to one for non-MMUable addresses. - User memory (uaccess.h, usercopy.c): User memory is directly accessible from privileged code. - Kernel memory (maccess.c): probe_kernel_write() needs to be overwridden to use the I/O functions when doing a simple aligned write to non-writecombined memory, otherwise the write may be split by the generic version. Note that due to the fact that a portion of the virtual address space is non-MMUable, and therefore always maps directly to the physical address space, metag specific I/O functions are made available (metag_in32, metag_out32 etc). These cast the address argument to a pointer so that they can be used with raw physical addresses. These accessors are only to be used for accessing fixed core Meta architecture registers in the non-MMU region, and not for any SoC/peripheral registers.

f5df8e2 metag: Memory management Add memory management files for metag. Meta's 32bit virtual address space is split into two halves: - local (0x08000000-0x7fffffff): traditionally local to a hardware thread and incoherent between hardware threads. Each hardware thread has it's own local MMU table. On Meta2 the local space can be globally coherent (GCOn) if the cache partitions coincide. - global (0x88000000-0xffff0000): coherent and traditionally global between hardware threads. On Meta2, each hardware thread has it's own global MMU table. The low 128MiB of each half is non-MMUable and maps directly to the physical address space: - 0x00010000-0x07ffffff: contains Meta core registers and maps SoC bus - 0x80000000-0x87ffffff: contains low latency global core memories Linux usually further splits the local virtual address space like this: - 0x08000000-0x3fffffff: user mappings - 0x40000000-0x7fffffff: kernel mappings Signed-off-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> 02 March 2013, 20:09:19 UTC
99ef7c2 metag: Cache/TLB handling Add cache and TLB handling code for metag, including the required callbacks used by MM switches and DMA operations. Caches can be partitioned between the hardware threads and the global space, however this is usually configured by the bootloader so Linux doesn't make any changes to this configuration. TLBs aren't configurable, so only need consideration to flush them. On Meta1 the L1 cache was VIVT which required a full flush on MM switch. Meta2 has a VIPT L1 cache so it doesn't require the full flush on MM switch. Meta2 can also have a writeback L2 with hardware prefetch which requires some special handling. Support is optional, and the L2 can be detected and initialised by Linux. Signed-off-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> 02 March 2013, 20:09:19 UTC

85d9d7a metag: Boot Add boot code for metag. Due to the multi-threaded nature of Meta it is not uncommon for an RTOS or bare metal application to be started on other hardware threads by the bootloader. Since there is a single MMU switch which affects all threads, the MMU is traditionally configured by the bootloader prior to starting Linux. The bootloader passes a structure to Linux which among other things contains information about memory regions which have been mapped. Linux then assumes control of the local heap memory region. A kernel arguments string pointer or a flattened device tree pointer can be provided in the third argument. Signed-off-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> 02 March 2013, 20:09:17 UTC

649508f trace/ring_buffer: handle 64bit aligned structs Some 32 bit architectures require 64 bit values to be aligned (for example Meta which has 64 bit read/write instructions).

c19fa94 Add HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS On 64 bit architectures with no efficient unaligned access, padding and explicit alignment must be added in various places to prevent unaligned 64bit accesses (such as taskstats and trace ring buffer). However this also needs to apply to 32 bit architectures with 64 bit accesses requiring alignment such as metag. This is solved by adding a new Kconfig symbol HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS which defaults to 64BIT && !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, and can be explicitly selected by METAG and any other relevant architectures. This can be used in various places to determine whether 64bit alignment is required.

7c45512 mm: fix pageblock bitmap allocation Commit c060f943d092 ("mm: use aligned zone start for pfn_to_bitidx calculation") fixed out calculation of the index into the pageblock bitmap when a !SPARSEMEM zome was not aligned to pageblock_nr_pages. However, the _allocation_ of that bitmap had never taken this alignment requirement into accout, so depending on the exact size and alignment of the zone, the use of that index could then access past the allocation, resulting in some very subtle memory corruption. This was reported (and bisected) by Ingo Molnar: one of his random config builds would hang with certain very specific kernel command line options. In the meantime, commit c060f943d092 has been marked for stable, so this fix needs to be back-ported to the stable kernels that backported the commit to use the right alignment.

ac89758 Revert "[media] dvb_frontend: return -ENOTTY for unimplement IOCTL" As reported by Klaus Schmidinger: "In VDR I use an ioctl() call with FE_READ_UNCORRECTED_BLOCKS on a device (using stb0899). After this call I check 'errno' for EOPNOTSUPP to determine whether this device supports this call. This used to work just fine, until a few months ago I noticed that my devices using stb0899 didn't display their signal quality in VDR's OSD any more. After further investigation I found that ioctl(FE_READ_UNCORRECTED_BLOCKS) no longer returns EOPNOTSUPP, but rather ENOTTY. And since I stop getting the signal quality in case any unknown errno value appears, this broke my signal quality query function." While the changes reflect what is there at: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1235728 it does cause regression on userspace. So, revert it to stop the damage.

" Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves this problem: "This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)." The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the %cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is the approach taken in this patch. Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention and lead to accidents.

249bfb8 PCI/PM: Clean up PME state when removing a device Devices are added to pci_pme_list when drivers use pci_enable_wake() or pci_wake_from_d3(), but they aren't removed from the list unless the driver explicitly disables wakeup. Many drivers never disable wakeup, so their devices remain on the list even after they are removed, e.g., via hotplug. A subsequent PME poll will oops when it tries to touch the device. This patch disables PME# on a device before removing it, which removes the device from pci_pme_list. This is safe even if the device never had PME# enabled. This oops can be triggered by unplugging a Thunderbolt ethernet adapter on a Macbook Pro, as reported by Daniel below.

e9c0dfb net: sctp: sctp_v6_get_dst: fix boolean test in dst cache We walk through the bind address list and try to get the best source address for a given destination. However, currently, we take the 'continue' path of the loop when an entry is invalid (!laddr->valid) *and* the entry state does not equal SCTP_ADDR_SRC (laddr->state != SCTP_ADDR_SRC). Thus, still, invalid entries with SCTP_ADDR_SRC might not 'continue' as well as valid entries with SCTP_ADDR_{NEW, SRC, DEL}, with a possible false baddr and matchlen as a result, causing in worst case dst route to be false or possibly NULL. This test should actually be a '||' instead of '&&'. But lets fix it and make this a bit easier to read by having the condition the same way as similarly done in sctp_v4_get_dst.

816cd5b batman-adv: Fix NULL pointer dereference in DAT hash collision avoidance An entry in DAT with the hashed position of 0 can cause a NULL pointer dereference when the first entry is checked by batadv_choose_next_candidate. This first candidate automatically has the max value of 0 and the max_orig_node of NULL. Not checking max_orig_node for NULL in batadv_is_orig_node_eligible will lead to a NULL pointer dereference when checking for the lowest address. This problem was added in 785ea1144182c341b8b85b0f8180291839d176a8 ("batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functions").

0ee364e x86/mm: Check if PUD is large when validating a kernel address A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.

4ba902b memcg: fix kmemcg registration for late caches The designed workflow for the caches in kmemcg is: register it with memcg_register_cache() if kmemcg is already available or later on when a new kmemcg appears at memcg_update_cache_sizes() which will handle all caches in the system. The caches created at boot time will be handled by the later, and the memcg-caches as well as any system caches that are registered later on by the former. There is a bug, however, in memcg_register_cache: we correctly set up the array size, but do not mark the cache as a root cache. This means that allocations for any cache appearing late in the game will see memcg->memcg_params->is_root_cache == false, and in particular, trigger VM_BUG_ON(!cachep->memcg_params->is_root_cache) in __memcg_kmem_cache_get. The obvious fix is to include the missing assignment.

9977f0f mm: don't overwrite mm->def_flags in do_mlockall() With commit 8e72033f2a48 ("thp: make MADV_HUGEPAGE check for mm->def_flags") the VM_NOHUGEPAGE flag may be set on s390 in mm->def_flags for certain processes, to prevent future thp mappings. This would be overwritten by do_mlockall(), which sets it back to 0 with an optional VM_LOCKED flag set. To fix this, instead of overwriting mm->def_flags in do_mlockall(), only the VM_LOCKED flag should be set or cleared.

96be80a ixgbe: Only set gso_type to SKB_GSO_TCPV4 as RSC does not support IPv6 The original fix that was applied for setting gso_type required more change than necessary because it was assumed ixgbe does RSC on IPv6 frames and this is not correct. RSC is only supported with IPv4/TCP frames only. As such we can simplify the fix and avoid the unnecessary move of eth_type_trans. The previous patch "ixgbe: fix gso type" and this patch reduce the entire fix to one line that sets gso_type to TCPV4 if the frame is RSC.
