2011-05-28ns: Wire up the setns system callEric W. Biederman1-0/+1
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked at closely and I can't find any problems. setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I don't expect any weird architecture porting problems. While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was new in the 2.6.39. v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W.

2011-05-20extable, core_kernel_data(): Make sure all archs define _sdataSteven Rostedt1-0/+3
A new utility function (core_kernel_data()) is used to determine if a passed in address is part of core kernel data or not. It may or may not return true for RO data, but this utility must work for RW data. Thus both _sdata and _edata must be defined and continuous, without .init sections that may later be freed and replaced by volatile memory (memory that can be freed). This utility function is used to determine if data is safe from ever being freed. Thus it should return true for all RW global data that is not in a module or has been allocated, or false otherwise. Also change core_kernel_data() back to the more precise _sdata condition and document the function.

2011-04-15[PARISC] prevent speculative re-read on cache flushJames Bottomley1-1/+12
According to Appendix F, the TLB is the primary arbiter of speculation. Thus, if a page has a TLB entry, it may be speculatively read into the cache. On linux, this can cause us incoherencies because if we're about to do a disk read, we call get_user_pages() to do the flush/invalidate in user space, but we still potentially have the user TLB entries, and the cache could speculate the lines back into userspace (thus causing stale data to be used). This is fixed by purging the TLB entries before we flush through the tmpalias space. Now, the only way the line could be re-speculated is if the user actually tries to touch it (which is not allowed). Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
2011-04-15[PARISC] only make executable areas executableJames Bottomley4-3/+16
Currently parisc has the whole kernel marked as RWX, meaning any kernel page at all is eligible to be executed. This can cause a theoretical problem on systems with combined I/D TLB because the act of referencing a page causes a TLB insertion with an executable bit. This TLB entry may be used by the CPU as the basis for speculating the page into the I-Cache. If this speculated page is subsequently used for a user process, there is the possibility we will get a stale I-cache line picked up as the binary executes. As a point of good practise, only mark actual kernel text pages as executable. The same has to be done for init_text pages, but they're converted to data pages (and the I-Cache flushed) when the init memory is released. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>

2011-04-14sched: Provide scheduler_ipi() callback in response to smp_send_reschedule()Peter Zijlstra1-4/+1
For future rework of try_to_wake_up() we'd like to push part of that function onto the CPU the task is actually going to run on. In order to do so we need a generic callback from the existing scheduler IPI. This patch introduces such a generic callback: scheduler_ipi() and implements it as a NOP.

2011-03-24percpu: Always align percpu output section to PAGE_SIZETejun Heo1-1/+1
Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel addresses should be aligned accordingly. The calculation of the former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel image. The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter. Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking percpu memory alignment. This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE. While at it, add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching there. For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area. As the area is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference. This problem was discovered by David Howells while debugging boot failure on mn10300.

2011-01-15parisc: flush pages through tmpalias spaceJames Bottomley3-280/+268
The kernel has an 8M tmpailas space (originally designed for copying and clearing pages but now only used for clearing). The idea is to place zeros into the cache above a physical page rather than into the physical page and flush the cache, because often the zeros end up being replaced quickly anyway. We can also use the tmpalias space for flushing a page. The difference here is that we have to do tmpalias processing in the non access data and instruction traps. The principle is the same: as long as we know the physical address and have a virtual address congruent to the real one, the flush will be effective. In order to use the tmpalias space, the icache miss path has to be enhanced to check for the alias region to make the fic instruction effective.

2011-01-15parisc : Remove broken line wrapping handling pdc_iodc_print()Guy Martin1-12/+1
Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print(). It is broken in 3 ways : - It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the screen. - It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't increase the current position on the screen. - And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace is the first char in the provided buffer : Backtrace: [<0000000040128ec4>] pdc_console_write+0x44/0x78 [<0000000040128f18>] pdc_console_tty_write+0x20/0x38 [<000000004032f1ac>] n_tty_write+0x2a4/0x550 [<000000004032b158>] tty_write+0x1e0/0x2d8 [<00000000401bb420>] vfs_write+0xb8/0x188 [<00000000401bb630>] sys_write+0x68/0xb8 [<0000000040104eb8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14 Most terminals handle the line wrapping just fine.

2010-12-04parisc: fix dino/gsc interruptsJames Bottomley1-1/+1
The essential problem we're currently having is that dino (and gsc) is a cascaded CPU interrupt. Under the old __do_IRQ() handler, our CPU interrupts basically did an ack followed by an end. In the new scheme, we replaced them with level handlers which do a mask, an ack and then an unmask (but no end). Instead, with the renaming of end to eoi, we actually want to call the percpu flow handlers, because they actually have all the characteristics we want.
