2012-10-30ARM: 7559/1: smp: switch away from the idmap before updating init_mm.mm_countWill Deacon
commit 5f40b909728ad784eb43aa309d3c4e9bdf050781 upstream. When booting a secondary CPU, the primary CPU hands two sets of page tables via the secondary_data struct: (1) swapper_pg_dir: a normal, cacheable, shared (if SMP) mapping of the kernel image (i.e. the tables used by init_mm). (2) idmap_pgd: an uncached mapping of the .idmap.text ELF section. The idmap is generally used when enabling and disabling the MMU, which includes early CPU boot. In this case, the secondary CPU switches to swapper as soon as it enters C code: struct mm_struct *mm = &init_mm; unsigned int cpu = smp_processor_id(); /* * All kernel threads share the same mm context; grab a * reference and switch to it. */ atomic_inc(&mm->mm_count); current->active_mm = mm; cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(mm)); cpu_switch_mm(mm->pgd, mm); This causes a problem on ARMv7, where the identity mapping is treated as strongly-ordered leading to architecturally UNPREDICTABLE behaviour of exclusive accesses, such as those used by atomic_inc. This patch re-orders the secondary_start_kernel function so that we switch to swapper before performing any exclusive accesses.

commit 2b2040af0b64cd93e5d4df2494c4486cf604090d upstream. get_user may fail to load from the provided __user address due to an unhandled fault generated by the access. In the case of the undefined instruction trap, this results in failure to load the faulting instruction, in which case we should send SIGILL to the task rather than continue with potentially uninitialised data.

2012-09-19ARM: 7496/1: hw_breakpoint: don't rely on dfsr to show watchpoint access typeWill Deacon
commit bf8801145c01ab600f8df66e8c879ac642fa5846 upstream. From ARM debug architecture v7.1 onwards, a watchpoint exception causes the DFAR to be updated with the faulting data address. However, DFSR.WnR takes an UNKNOWN value and therefore cannot be used in general to determine the access type that triggered the watchpoint. This patch forbids watchpoints without an overflow handler from specifying a specific access type (load/store). Those with overflow handlers must be able to handle false positives potentially triggered by a watchpoint of a different access type on the same address. For SIGTRAP-based handlers (i.e. ptrace), this should have no impact.

2012-08-10ARM: Fix undefined instruction exception handlingRussell King
commit 15ac49b65024f55c4371a53214879a9c77c4fbf9 upstream. While trying to get a v3.5 kernel booted on the cubox, I noticed that VFP does not work correctly with VFP bounce handling. This is because of the confusion over 16-bit vs 32-bit instructions, and where PC is supposed to point to. The rule is that FP handlers are entered with regs->ARM_pc pointing at the _next_ instruction to be executed. However, if the exception is not handled, regs->ARM_pc points at the faulting instruction. This is easy for ARM mode, because we know that the next instruction and previous instructions are separated by four bytes. This is not true of Thumb2 though. Since all FP instructions are 32-bit in Thumb2, it makes things easy. We just need to select the appropriate adjustment. Do this by moving the adjustment out of do_undefinstr() into the assembly code, as only the assembly code knows whether it's dealing with a 32-bit or 16-bit instruction.

commit 435a7ef52db7d86e67a009b36cac1457f8972391 upstream. We can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range because the flush can fault. If we fault on a user address, the page fault handler will try to take mmap_sem again. Since both places acquire the read lock, most of the time it succeeds. However, if another thread tries to acquire the write lock on the mmap_sem (e.g. mmap) in between the call to flush_cache_user_range and the fault, the down_read in do_page_fault will deadlock.

2012-05-11ARM: 7414/1: SMP: prevent use of the console when using idmap_pgdColin Cross
commit fde165b2a29673aabf18ceff14dea1f1cfb0daad upstream. Commit 4e8ee7de227e3ab9a72040b448ad728c5428a042 (ARM: SMP: use idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting) switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during __cpu_up. This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings but be missing all dynamic mappings. If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually not affected because the offending console is suspended. Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem. A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

commit e787ec1376e862fcea1bfd523feb7c5fb43ecdb9 upstream. The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.

2012-05-11ARM: 7406/1: hotplug: copy the affinity mask when forcefully migrating IRQsWill Deacon
commit 5e7371ded05adfcfcee44a8bc070bfc37979b8f2 upstream. When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate whether irq_data.affinity was updated. If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons. This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the affinity of an interrupt.

2012-03-12ARM: 7354/1: perf: limit sample_period to half max_period in non-sampling modeWill Deacon
commit 5727347180ebc6b4a866fcbe00dcb39cc03acb37 upstream. On ARM, the PMU does not stop counting after an overflow and therefore IRQ latency affects the new counter value read by the kernel. This is significant for non-sampling runs where it is possible for the new value to overtake the previous one, causing the delta to be out by up to max_period events. Commit a737823d ("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency") attempted to fix this problem by allowing interrupt handlers to pass an overflow flag to the event update function, causing the overflow calculation to assume that the counter passed through zero when going from prev to new. Unfortunately, this doesn't work when overflow occurs on the perf_task_tick path because we have the flag cleared and end up computing a large negative delta. This patch removes the overflow flag from armpmu_event_update and instead limits the sample_period to half of the max_period for non-sampling profiling runs.

2012-02-13ARM: 7307/1: vfp: fix ptrace regset modification raceDave Martin
commit 247f4993a5974e6759606c4d380748eecfd273ff upstream. In a preemptible kernel, vfp_set() can be preempted, causing the hardware VFP context to be switched while the thread vfp state is being read and modified. This leads to a race condition which can cause the thread vfp state to become corrupted if lazy VFP context save occurs due to preemption in between the time thread->vfpstate is read and the time the modified state is written back. This may occur if preemption occurs during the execution of a ptrace() call which modifies the VFP register state of a thread. Such instances should be very rare in most realistic scenarios -- none has been reported, so far as I am aware. Only uniprocessor systems should be affected, since VFP context save is not currently lazy in SMP kernels. The problem was introduced by my earlier patch migrating to use regsets to implement ptrace. This patch does a vfp_sync_hwstate() before reading thread->vfpstate, to make sure that the thread's VFP state is not live in the hardware registers while the registers are modified.

2012-02-13ARM: 7306/1: vfp: flush thread hwstate before restoring context from sigframeWill Deacon
commit 2af276dfb1722e97b190bd2e646b079a2aa674db upstream. Following execution of a signal handler, we currently restore the VFP context from the ucontext in the signal frame. This involves copying from the user stack into the current thread's vfp_hard_struct and then flushing the new data out to the hardware registers. This is problematic when using a preemptible kernel because we could be context switched whilst updating the vfp_hard_struct. If the current thread has made use of VFP since the last context switch, the VFP notifier will copy from the hardware registers into the vfp_hard_struct, overwriting any data that had been partially copied by the signal code. Disabling preemption across copy_from_user calls is a terrible idea, so instead we move the VFP thread flush *before* we update the vfp_hard_struct. Since the flushing is performed lazily, this has the effect of disabling VFP and clearing the CPU's VFP state pointer, therefore preventing the thread from being updated with stale data on the next context switch.

2011-12-06ARM: 7187/1: fix unwinding for XIP kernelsUwe Kleine-König
The linker places the unwind tables in readonly sections. So when using an XIP kernel these are located in ROM and cannot be modified. For that reason the current approach to convert the relative offsets in the unwind index to absolute addresses early in the boot process doesn't work with XIP. The offsets in the unwind index section are signed 31 bit numbers and the structs are sorted by this offset. So it first has offsets between 0x40000000 and 0x7fffffff (i.e. the negative offsets) and then offsets between 0x00000000 and 0x3fffffff. When seperating these two blocks the numbers are sorted even when interpreting the offsets as unsigned longs. So determine the first non-negative entry once and track that using the new origin pointer. The actual bisection can then use a plain unsigned long comparison. The only thing that makes the new bisection more complicated is that the offsets are relative to their position in the index section, so the key to search needs to be adapted accordingly in each step. Moreover several consts are added to catch future writes and rename the member "addr" of struct unwind_idx to "addr_offset" to better match the new semantic. (This has the additional benefit of breaking eventual users at compile time to make them aware of the change.) In my tests the new algorithm was a tad faster than the original and has the additional upside of not needing the initial conversion and so saves some boot time and it's possible to unwind even earlier.

When validating an event group, we call pmu->get_event_idx for each group member in order to check that the group can be scheduled as a unit on an empty PMU. As a result of 3fc2c830 ("ARM: perf: remove event limit from pmu_hw_events"), the used_mask member of struct cpu_hw_events must be setup explicitly, something which we don't do for the fake cpu_hw_events used for validation. This patch sets up an empty used_mask for the fake validation cpu_hw_events, preventing NULL deferences when trying to get the event index.

2011-11-16ARM: PMU: re-export release_pmu symbol to modulesWill Deacon
Commit b0e89590 ("ARM: PMU: move CPU PMU platform device handling and init into perf") inadvertently removed the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL on release_pmu, so out-of-tree modules can no longer play nice with perf, even if they tried in the first place.

2011-11-12ARM: 7160/1: setup: avoid overflowing {elf,arch}_name from proc_info_listWill Deacon
setup_processor copies the arch_name and elf_name fields out of the selected proc_info_list into two fixed size buffers. Since the proc_info_list structure is defined in a proc_*.S assembly file, this can lead to subtle errors if the strings defined there are too long (for example, corrupting the machine ID). This patch uses snprintf instead of sprintf to ensure that these buffers are not overrun. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2011-11-07Revert "ARM: 7098/1: kdump: copy kernel relocation code at the kexec prepare ↵Russell King
stage" This reverts commit 2b034922af2caa19df86f0c502e76cb6f6e910f9. Will Deacon reports: This is causing kexec to fail. The symptoms are that the .init.text section is not loaded as part of the new kernel image, so when we try to do the SMP/UP fixups we hit a whole sea of poison left there by the previous kernel. So my guess is that machine_kexec_prepare *is* too early for preparing the reboot_code_buffer and, unless anybody has a good reason not to, I'd like to revert the patch causing these problems.

2011-10-31arm: convert core files from module.h to export.hPaul Gortmaker
Many of the core ARM kernel files are not modules, but just including module.h for exporting symbols. Now these files can use the lighter footprint export.h for this role. There are probably lots more, but ARM files of mach-* and plat-* don't get coverage via a simple yesconfig build. They will have to be cleaned up and tested via using their respective configs.

2011-10-23ARM: 7133/1: SMP: fix per cpu timer setup before the cpu is marked onlineThomas Gleinxer
The problem is related to the early enabling of interrupts and the per cpu timer setup before the cpu is marked online. This doesn't need to be done in order to call calibrate_delay(). calibrate_delay() monitors jiffies, which are updated from the CPU which is waiting for the new CPU to set the online bit. So simply calibrate_delay() can be called on the new CPU just from the interrupt disabled region and move the local timer setup after stored the cpu data and before enabling interrupts. This solves both the cpu_online vs. cpu_active problem and the affinity setting of the per cpu timers.

2011-10-23ARM: gic, local timers: use the request_percpu_irq() interfaceMarc Zyngier
This patch remove the hardcoded link between local timers and PPIs, and convert the PPI users (TWD, MCT and MSM timers) to the new *_percpu_irq interface. Also some collateral cleanup (local_timer_ack() is gone, and the interrupt handler is strictly private to each driver). PPIs are now useable for more than just the local timers. Additional testing by David Brown (msm8250 and msm8660) and Shawn Guo (imx6q).
