2009-06-16mm: consolidate init_mm definitionAlexey Dobriyan
* create mm/init-mm.c, move init_mm there * remove INIT_MM, initialize init_mm with C99 initializer * unexport init_mm on all arches: init_mm is already unexported on x86. One strange place is some OMAP driver (drivers/video/omap/) which won't build modular, but it's already wants get_vm_area() export. Somebody should look there.

2009-03-31parisc: expose 32/64-bit capabilities in cpuinfoColin Watson
It'd be rather useful for debian-installer if we could get hold of accurate firmware information on whether only 32-bit kernels are supported, only 64-bit kernels, or both; this would allow us to present an accurate menu of kernel packages if more than one is available, rather than the user having to guess. This patch attempts to expose it in cpuinfo. I adjusted pdc_model_capabilities to cope with a potential PDC_INVALID_ARG return as the firmware manual instructs, by assuming 32-bit only. This may be the wrong place for it. I made up user-visible capability names by total fiat and for the moment ignored the other bits that may appear in the capabilities word. I have no PA-RISC machine myself to test on, and no PA experience either, so I rather hope that somebody will kind-heartedly take this and fix it up if needed. I ran it past Dann Frazier on IRC and he said "looks good to me", but I think without testing. Also, this is against the Ubuntu 2.6.28 kernel tree since that's what I had handy and I was a bit tight on disk space to slurp down another tree. Sorry if it's skewed in any relevant way; I'll be happy to adjust if necessary. Thanks in advance! Signed-off-by: Colin Watson <cjwatson@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca>
2009-03-31parisc: use constants instead of numbers in assemblyHelge Deller
A few small fixups: * _PAGE_SIZE_ENCODING_DEFAULT is wrong here, as one might assume that it's possible to define the page size that way. This is wrong. Use 0 instead. * use constants instead of hardcoded numerical values in depi and extru while building the PFN out of the pte entry * use SHRREG instead of extru (iitlba expects the PFN at bits {7..26}) Still wondering why we can use the same register (pte) as extru source and target register, but it seems to work on PA1.1 and PA2.0...

2009-03-27generic compat_sys_ustatChristoph Hellwig
Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but currently only x86 and mips provide one. Add a generic compat_sys_ustat and switch all architectures over to it. Instead of doing various user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as it's trivial. This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann. Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of data writen by the syscall.

It really should never happen in the kernel, since the kernel can guarantee it won't get the access rights failure (highest privilege level, and can set %sr and %protid to whatever it wants.) It really genuinely is a bug that probably should panic the kernel. The only precedent I can easily see is x86 fixing up a bad iret with a general protection fault, which is more or less analogous to code 27 here. On the other hand, taking the exception on a userspace access really isn't all that critical, and there's fundamentally little reason for the kernel not to SIGSEGV the process, and continue... Argh. (btw, I've instrumented my do_sys_poll with a pile of assertions that %cr8 << 1 == %sr3 == current->mm.context... let's see if where we're getting corrupted is deterministic, though, I would guess that it won't be.)

parisc: add uevent helper for parisc bus udev device-driver auto detection was failing to work on the GSC bus, since udev didn't knew wich driver to load due to a missing MODALIAS environment variable from kernel. This patch fixes this by adding the MODALIAS environment variable to the uevent kernel notifications. Since modalias_show() generated the modalias string already, I splitted this out and created a new static function make_modalias() which is now used by modalias_show() and the new parisc_uevent() function.

2009-01-05parisc: fix module loading failure of large kernel modulesHelge Deller
On 32bit (and sometimes 64bit) and with big kernel modules like xfs or ipv6 the relocation types R_PARISC_PCREL17F and R_PARISC_PCREL22F may fail to reach their PLT stub if we only create one big stub array for all sections at the beginning of the core or init section. With this patch we now instead add individual PLT stub entries directly in front of the code sections where the stubs are actually called. This reduces the distance between the PCREL location and the stub entry so that the relocations can be fulfilled. While calculating the final layout of the kernel module in memory, the kernel module loader calls arch_mod_section_prepend() to request the to be reserved amount of memory in front of each individual section. Tested with 32- and 64bit kernels. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
