2008-01-28[ARM] Fix timer damage from d3d74453c34f8fd87674a8cf5b8a327c68f22e99Russell King
Move the xtime write mode seqlock into timer_tick(), so it only surrounds the call to do_timer(). This avoids a deadlock in update_process_times() ... hrtimer_get_softirq_time() which tries to get a read mode seqlock on xtime, thereby preventing booting.

2008-01-26ARM kprobes: special hook for the kprobes breakpoint handlerNicolas Pitre

2008-01-26ARM kprobes: don't let a single-stepped stmdb corrupt the exception stackNicolas Pitre
If kprobes installs a breakpoint on a "stmdb sp!, {...}" instruction, and then single-step it by simulation from the exception context, it will corrupt the saved regs on the stack from the previous context. To avoid this, let's add an optional parameter to the svc_entry macro allowing for a hole to be created on the stack before saving the interrupted context, and use it in the undef_svc handler when kprobes is enabled.

2008-01-26ARM kprobes: core codeAbhishek Sagar
This is a full implementation of Kprobes including Jprobes and Kretprobes support. This ARM implementation does not follow the usual kprobes double- exception model. The traditional model is where the initial kprobes breakpoint calls kprobe_handler(), which returns from exception to execute the instruction in its original context, then immediately re-enters after a second breakpoint (or single-stepping exception) into post_kprobe_handler(), each time the probe is hit.. The ARM implementation only executes one kprobes exception per hit, so no post_kprobe_handler() phase. All side-effects from the kprobe'd instruction are resolved before returning from the initial exception. As a result, all instructions are _always_ effectively boosted regardless of the type of instruction, and even regardless of whether or not there is a post-handler for the probe.

2008-01-26ARM kprobes: instruction single-stepping supportQuentin Barnes
This is the code implementing instruction single-stepping for kprobes on ARM. To get around the limitation of no Next-PC and no hardware single- stepping, all kprobe'd instructions are split into three camps: simulation, emulation, and rejected. "Simulated" instructions are those instructions which behavior is reproduced by straight C code. "Emulated" instructions are ones that are copied, slightly altered and executed directly in the instruction slot to reproduce their behavior. "Rejected" instructions are ones that could be simulated, but work hasn't been put into simulating them. These instructions should be very rare, if not unencountered, in the kernel. If ever needed, code could be added to simulate them. One might wonder why this and the ptrace singlestep facility are not sharing some code. Both approaches are fundamentally different because the ptrace code regains control after the stepped instruction by installing a breakpoint after the instruction itself, and possibly at the location where the instruction might be branching to, instead of simulating or emulating the target instruction. The ptrace approach isn't suitable for kprobes because the breakpoints would have to be moved back, and the icache flushed, everytime the probe is hit to let normal code execution resume, which would have a significant performance impact. It is also racy on SMP since another CPU could, with the right timing, sail through the probe point without being caught. Because ptrace single-stepping always result in a different process to be scheduled, the concern for performance is much less significant. On the other hand, the kprobes approach isn't (currently) suitable for ptrace because it has no provision for proper user space memory protection and translation, and even if that was implemented, the gain wouldn't be worth the added complexity in the ptrace path compared to the current approach. So, until kprobes does support user space, both kprobes and ptrace are best kept independent and separate.

2008-01-26[ARM] 4584/2: ARMv7: Add Advanced SIMD (NEON) extension supportCatalin Marinas
This patch enables the use of the Advanced SIMD (NEON) extension on ARMv7. The NEON technology is a 64/128-bit hybrid SIMD architecture for accelerating the performance of multimedia and signal processing applications. The extension shares the registers with the VFP unit and enabling/disabling and saving/restoring follow the same rules. In addition, there are instructions that do not have the appropriate CP number encoded, the checks being made in the call_fpe function.

2007-11-26[ARM] 4659/1: remove possibilities for spurious false negative with ↵Nicolas Pitre
__kuser_cmpxchg The ARM __kuser_cmpxchg routine is meant to implement an atomic cmpxchg in user space. It however can produce spurious false negative if a processor exception occurs in the middle of the operation. Normally this is not a problem since cmpxchg is typically called in a loop until it succeeds to implement an atomic increment for example. Some use cases which don't involve a loop require that the operation be 100% reliable though. This patch changes the implementation so to reattempt the operation after an exception has occurred in the critical section rather than abort it. Here's a simple program to test the fix (don't use CONFIG_NO_HZ in your kernel as this depends on a sufficiently high interrupt rate): #include <stdio.h> typedef int (__kernel_cmpxchg_t)(int oldval, int newval, int *ptr); #define __kernel_cmpxchg (*(__kernel_cmpxchg_t *)0xffff0fc0) int main() { int i, x = 0; for (i = 0; i < 100000000; i++) { int v = x; if (__kernel_cmpxchg(v, v+1, &x)) printf("failed at %d: %d vs %d\n", i, v, x); } printf("done with %d vs %d\n", i, x); return 0; } Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-10-12[ARM] 4599/1: Preserve ATAG list for use with kexec (2.6.23)Mike Westerhof
This patch resolves a kexec boot failure that can occur because no ATAGs are passed in to the kexec'd kernel. Currently the newly-kexec'd kernel may fail if it requires specific ATAGs, or it may fail because the fixed memory location at which it expects to find the ATAGs may contain random data instead of ATAGs. The patch ensures that any ATAGs passed to the current kernel at boot time are copied to a static buffer, and are copied back when kexec copies the new kernel into place. Thus the new kernel sees the same ATAGs from kexec and the boot loader. The boot parameters are copied without regard to type, content, or length -- this patch's scope is limited soley to saving and restoring a fixed-size block of memory containing the kernel's boot parameters. Additional functionality to examine, alter, or replace the ATAGs (using kexec, for example) can be implemented by manipulating the static buffer containing the preserved ATAGs. Note: the size of the buffer (1.5KB) is selected to comfortably hold one of each ATAG type, including a maximum-length command line and the maximum number of ATAG_MEM structures currently supported by the kernel. Should an ATAG list exceed that limit, the list will be silently truncated to that limit (to do other- wise at that point in the boot process would make a simple problem exceedingly complicated). [Note: this is the same patch as 4579, modified to accomodate the ATAG changes introduced in 2.6.23] Signed-off-by: Mike Westerhof <mwester at dls.net> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-07-19define new percpu interface for shared dataFenghua Yu
per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus. One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve this is not clean. This patch: Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

2007-07-17Report that kernel is tainted if there was an OOPSPavel Emelianov
If the kernel OOPSed or BUGed then it probably should be considered as tainted. Thus, all subsequent OOPSes and SysRq dumps will report the tainted kernel.

2007-07-12[ARM] 4453/1: Fully Decode ARM instruction set state in show_regs() tombstoneGeorge G. Davis
The ARM show_regs() tombstone only partially decodes which ARM ISA was executing at the time a fault occurred displaying either "(T)" for the Thumb case or nothing at all for other cases. This patch therefore explicitly identifies which state the processor is in at the time of a fault: ARM, Thumb, Jazelle or JazelleEE. Signed-off-by: George G.

2007-07-05[ARM] always allow dump_stack() to produce a backtraceRussell King

2007-06-28Introduce fixed sys_sync_file_range2() syscall, implement on PowerPC and ARMDavid Woodhouse
Not all the world is an i386. Many architectures need 64-bit arguments to be aligned in suitable pairs of registers, and the original sys_sync_file_range(int, loff_t, loff_t, int) was therefore wasting an argument register for padding after the first integer. Since we don't normally have more than 6 arguments for system calls, that left no room for the final argument on some architectures. Fix this by introducing sys_sync_file_range2(int, int, loff_t, loff_t) which all fits nicely. In fact, ARM already had that, but called it sys_arm_sync_file_range. Move it to fs/sync.c and rename it, then implement the needed compatibility routine. And stop the missing syscall check from bitching about the absence of sys_sync_file_range() if we've implemented sys_sync_file_range2() instead. Tested on PPC32 and with 32-bit and 64-bit userspace on PPC64.

2007-06-18[ARM] Update show_regs/oops register formatRussell King
Add the kernel release and version information to the output of show_regs/oops. Add the CPU PSR register. Avoid using printk to output partial lines; always output a complete line. Re-combine the "Control" and "Table + DAC" lines after nommu separated them; we don't want to waste vertical screen space needlessly. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-06-17[ARM] Add support for pause_on_oops and display preempt/smp optionsRussell King

2007-05-30[ARM] Fix stacktrace FP range checkingRussell King
Fix an oops in the stacktrace code, caused by improper range checking. We subtract 12 off 'fp' before testing to see if it's below the low bound. However, if 'fp' were zero before, it becomes a very large positive number, causing this test to succeed where it should fail. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2007-05-17[ARM] ARMv6: add CPU_HAS_ASID configurationRussell King
Presently, we check for the minimum ARM architecture that we're building for to determine whether we need ASID support.
