mips,kgdb: fix recursive page fault with CONFIG_KPROBES

2012-10-30T23:26:44Z

commit f0a996eeeda214f4293e234df33b29bec003b536 upstream. This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. 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.

kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax

2012-10-17T02:49:27Z

commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

MIPS: ASID conflict after CPU hotplug

2011-11-10T17:59:45Z

I am running SMP Linux 2.6.37-rc1 on BMIPS5000 (single core dual thread) and observe some abnormalities when doing system suspend/resume which I narrowed down to cpu hotplugging. The suspend brings the second thread processor down and then restarts it, after which I see memory corruption in userspace. I started digging and found out that problem occurs because while doing execve() the child process is getting the same ASID as the parent, which obviously corrupts parent's address space. Further digging showed that activate_mm() calls get_new_mmu_context() to get a new ASID, but at this time ASID field in entryHi is 1, and asid_cache(cpu) is 0x100 (it was just reset to ASID_FIRST_VERSION when the secondary TP was booting). So, get_new_mmu_context() increments the asid_cache(cpu) value to 0x101, and thus puts 0x01 into entryHi. The result - ASID field does not get changed as it was supposed to. My solution is very simple - do not reset asid_cache(cpu) on TP warm restart. Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1797/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle
