2012-05-03vfs: make word-at-a-time accesses handle a non-existing pageLinus Torvalds
It turns out that there are more cases than CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC that can have holes in the kernel address space: it seems to happen easily with Xen, and it looks like the AMD gart64 code will also punch holes dynamically. Actually hitting that case is still very unlikely, so just do the access, and take an exception and fix it up for the very unlikely case of it being a page-crosser with no next page. And hey, this abstraction might even help other architectures that have other issues with unaligned word accesses than the possible missing next page. IOW, this could do the byte order magic too. Peter Anvin fixed a thinko in the shifting for the exception case.

2012-04-23x32, siginfo: Provide proper overrides for x32 siginfo_tH. Peter Anvin
Provide the proper override macros for x32 siginfo_t. The combination of a special type here and an overall alignment constraint actually ends up with all the types being properly aligned, but the hack is needed to keep the substructures inside siginfo_t from adding padding.

2012-04-23x32: Check __ILP32__ instead of __LP64__ for x32H.J. Lu
Check __LP64__ isn't a reliable way to tell if we are compiling for x32 since __LP64__ isnn't specified by x86-64 psABI. Not all x86-64 compilers define __LP64__, which was added to GCC 3.3. The updated x32 psABI: https://sites.google.com/site/x32abi/documents definse _ILP32 and __ILP32__ for x32. GCC trunk and 4.7 branch have been updated to define _ILP32 and __ILP32__ for x32.

2012-04-16x86/platform: Remove incorrect error message in x86_default_fixup_cpu_id()Andreas Herrmann
It's only called from amd.c:srat_detect_node(). The introduced condition for calling the fixup code is true for all AMD multi-node processors, e.g. Magny-Cours and Interlagos. There we have 2 NUMA nodes on one socket. Thus there are cores having different numa-node-id but with equal phys_proc_id. There is no point to print error messages in such a situation. The confusing/misleading error message was introduced with commit 64be4c1c2428e148de6081af235e2418e6a66dda ("x86: Add x86_init platform override to fix up NUMA core numbering"). Remove the default fixup function (especially the error message) and replace it by a NULL pointer check, move the Numascale-specific condition for calling the fixup into the fixup-function itself and slightly adapt the comment.

2012-04-11x86: merge 32/64-bit versions of 'strncpy_from_user()' and speed it upLinus Torvalds
This merges the 32- and 64-bit versions of the x86 strncpy_from_user() by just rewriting it in C rather than the ancient inline asm versions that used lodsb/stosb and had been duplicated for (trivial) differences between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. While doing that, it also speeds them up by doing the accesses a word at a time. Finally, the new routines also properly handle the case of hitting the end of the address space, which we have never done correctly before (fs/namei.c has a hack around it for that reason). Despite all these improvements, it actually removes more lines than it adds, due to the de-duplication. Also, we no longer export (or define) the legacy __strncpy_from_user() function (that was defined to not do the user permission checks), since it's not actually used anywhere, and the user address space checks are built in to the new code. Other architecture maintainers have been notified that the old hack in fs/namei.c will be going away in the 3.5 merge window, in case they copied the x86 approach of being a bit cavalier about the end of the address space.

2012-04-06Make the "word-at-a-time" helper functions more commonly usableLinus Torvalds
I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses them. This is preparation for that. This moves them into an architecture-specific header file. It's architecture-specific for two reasons: - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific implementations. Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast bit count instruction, for example. - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in particular the actual unaligned accesses). So we're likely to have more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using this. (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the right thing to do, of course) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski: "Short summary for the whole series: A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping design and its implementations for various architectures. There exist more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers: currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent, dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent. For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be interchanged. For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones (like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver performance. Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be easily shared between different architectures. The provided patches unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already existing dma attributes concept. The thread with more references is available here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support. More information is available in the following thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819 More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee445d "dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism"). The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods (with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine functions." People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window. Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support for merging. * 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping: common: DMA-mapping: add NON-CONSISTENT attribute common: DMA-mapping: add WRITE_COMBINE attribute common: dma-mapping: introduce mmap method common: dma-mapping: remove old alloc_coherent and free_coherent methods Hexagon: adapt for dma_map_ops changes Unicore32: adapt for dma_map_ops changes Microblaze: adapt for dma_map_ops changes SH: adapt for dma_map_ops changes Alpha: adapt for dma_map_ops changes SPARC: adapt for dma_map_ops changes PowerPC: adapt for dma_map_ops changes MIPS: adapt for dma_map_ops changes X86 & IA64: adapt for dma_map_ops changes common: dma-mapping: introduce generic alloc() and free() methods
2012-03-30x86: Remove the ancient and deprecated disable_hlt() and enable_hlt() facilityLen Brown
The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the 32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially it turned off the use of HLT. This workaround was commented in the code as: "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations" "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA wreckage. It should be safe to remove." H. Peter Anvin additionally adds: "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind, including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT caused some of these systems to fail. They were by far in the minority even back then." Alan Cox further says: "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during DMA tended to go astray. Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520 fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of use." So, let's finally drop this.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Both functions are mostly identical.

Calling these function on x86_32 also in the innermost loop does not hurt. So we can merge both functions.

But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

2012-03-23x86/apic: Add separate apic_id_valid() functions for selected apic driversSteffen Persvold
As suggested by Suresh Siddha and Yinghai Lu: For x2apic pre-enabled systems, apic driver is set already early through early_acpi_boot_init()/early_acpi_process_madt()/ acpi_parse_madt()/default_acpi_madt_oem_check() path so that apic_id_valid() checking will be sufficient during MADT and SRAT parsing. For non-x2apic pre-enabled systems, all apic ids should be less than 255. This allows us to substitute the checks in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c::acpi_parse_x2apic() and arch/x86/mm/srat.c::acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init() with apic->apic_id_valid(). In addition we can avoid feigning the x2apic cpu feature in the NumaChip apic code. The following apic drivers have separate apic_id_valid() functions which will accept x2apic type IDs : x2apic_phys x2apic_cluster x2apic_uv_x apic_numachip Signed-off-by: Steffen Persvold <sp@numascale.com> Cc: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: Daniel J Blueman <daniel@numascale-asia.com> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1331925935-13372-1-git-send-email-sp@numascale.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Pull irq_domain support for all architectures from Grant Likely: "Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it, renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures. Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and refactoring it in-place. So, this branch rips out the 'new' irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a fully bisectable way of course). It converts all users over to the new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture. No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations. It will even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for translating irqs at boot time. MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x are converted too. The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for follow-on patches." * tag 'irqdomain-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6: (31 commits) dt: fix twl4030 for non-dt compile on x86 mfd: twl-core: Add IRQ_DOMAIN dependency devicetree: Add empty of_platform_populate() for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS (sparc) irq_domain: Centralize definition of irq_dispose_mapping() irq_domain/mips: Allow irq_domain on MIPS irq_domain/x86: Convert x86 (embedded) to use common irq_domain ppc-6xx: fix build failure in flipper-pic.c and hlwd-pic.c irq_domain/microblaze: Convert microblaze to use irq_domains irq_domain/powerpc: Replace custom xlate functions with library functions irq_domain/powerpc: constify irq_domain_ops irq_domain/c6x: Use library of xlate functions irq_domain/c6x: constify irq_domain structures irq_domain/c6x: Convert c6x to use generic irq_domain support. irq_domain: constify irq_domain_ops irq_domain: Create common xlate functions that device drivers can use irq_domain: Remove irq_domain_add_simple() irq_domain: Remove 'new' irq_domain in favour of the ppc one mfd: twl-core.c: Fix the number of interrupts managed by twl4030 of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF irq_domain: Add support for base irq and hwirq in legacy mappings ...

Upon resume from hibernation, CPU 0's hvclock area contains the old values for system_time and tsc_timestamp. It is necessary for the hypervisor to update these values with uptodate ones before the CPU uses them. Abstract TSC's save/restore sched_clock_state functions and use restore_state to write to KVM_SYSTEM_TIME MSR, forcing an update.

2012-03-14x32: Fix alignment fail in struct compat_siginfoH. Peter Anvin
Adding struct _sigchld_x32 caused a misalignment cascade in struct siginfo, because union _sifields is located on an 4-byte boundary (8-byte misaligned.) Adding new fields that are 8-byte aligned caused the intermediate structures to also be aligned to 8 bytes, thereby adding padding in unexpected places. Thus, change s64 to compat_s64 here, which makes it "misaligned on paper". In reality these fields *are* actually aligned (there are 3 preceeding ints outside the union and 3 inside struct _sigchld_x32), but because of the intervening union and struct it is not possible for gcc to avoid padding without breaking the ABI.
