ARC: !PREEMPT: Ensure Return to kernel mode is IRQ safe

2014-04-30T15:21:43Z

There was a very small race window where resume to kernel mode from a Exception Path (or pure kernel mode which is true for most of ARC exceptions anyways), was not disabling interrupts in restore_regs, clobbering the exception regs Anton found the culprit call flow (after many sleepless nights) | 1. we got a Trap from user land | 2. started to service it. | 3. While doing some stuff on user-land memory (I think it is padzero()), | we got a DataTlbMiss | 4. On return from it we are taking "resume_kernel_mode" path | 5. NEED_RESHED is not set, so we go to "return from exception" path in | restore regs. | 6. there seems to be IRQ happening Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Cc: #3.10, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 Cc: Anton Kolesov Cc: Francois Bedard Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ARC: Delete stale barrier.h

2014-04-18T20:49:15Z

Commit 93ea02bb8435 ("arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations") wired generic barrier.h for ARC, but failed to delete the existing file. In 3.15, due to rcupdate.h updates, this causes a build breakage on ARC: CC arch/arc/kernel/asm-offsets.s In file included from include/linux/sched.h:45:0, from arch/arc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:9: include/linux/rculist.h: In function __list_add_rcu: include/linux/rculist.h:54:2: error: implicit declaration of function smp_store_release [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] rcu_assign_pointer(list_next_rcu(prev), new); ^ Cc: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Kconfig: rename HAS_IOPORT to HAS_IOPORT_MAP

2014-04-07T23:36:11Z

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this. Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP. The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT. The changes in this commit were done using: $ git grep -l -E '(NO|HAS)_IOPORT' | xargs perl -p -i -e 's/\b((?:CONFIG_)?(?:NO|HAS)_IOPORT)\b/$1_MAP/' Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ARC: [nsimosci] Unbork console

2014-04-05T13:06:51Z

Despite the switch to right UART driver (prev patch), serial console still doesn't work due to missing CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM Also fix the default cmdline in DT to not refer to out-of-tree ARC framebuffer driver for console.

ARC: [nsimosci] Change .dts to use generic 8250 UART

2014-04-05T13:06:45Z

The Synopsys APB DW UART has a couple of special features that are not in the System C model. In 3.8, the 8250_dw driver didn't really use these features, but from 3.9 onwards, the 8250_dw driver has become incompatible with our model.
