2008-09-13[ARM] Fix PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS for ARMRussell King
PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS was defined to be zero, which meant we ignored the DMA mask for IDE and SCSI transfers. This is wrong - we have no DMA translation hardware. We want to obey DMA masks so that the block layer performs bouncing itself. Reported-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2008-09-09lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architecturesJames Bottomley
It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7bd0020f29ffe287dfdb9ead33ca0b2. However, the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64. For two reasons: 1) parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for function descriptors Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing architecture overrides. I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64 and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

When running a 31-bit ptrace, on either an s390 or s390x kernel, reads and writes into a padding area in struct user_regs_struct32 will result in a kernel panic. This is also known as CVE-2008-1514. Test case available here: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/user-area-padding.c?cvsroot=systemtap Steps to reproduce: 1) wget the above 2) gcc -o user-area-padding-31bit user-area-padding.c -Wall -ggdb2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -m31 3) ./user-area-padding-31bit <panic> Test status ----------- Without patch, both s390 and s390x kernels panic. With patch, the test case, as well as the gdb testsuite, pass without incident, padding area reads returning zero, writes ignored. Nb: original version returned -EINVAL on write attempts, which broke the gdb test and made the test case slightly unhappy, Jan Kratochvil suggested the change to return 0 on write attempts.

2008-09-08x86: disable static NOPLs on 32 bitsLinus Torvalds
On 32-bit, at least the generic nops are fairly reasonable, but the default nops for 64-bit really look pretty sad, and the P6 nops really do look better. So I would suggest perhaps moving the static P6 nop selection into the CONFIG_X86_64 thing. The alternative is to just get rid of that static nop selection, and just have two cases: 32-bit and 64-bit, and just pick obviously safe cases for them. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online. But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for a CPU.

Move early cpu initialization after cpu early get cap so the early cpu initialization can fix up cpu caps. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-09-06[ARM] 5241/1: provide ioremap_wc()Lennert Buytenhek
This patch provides an ARM implementation of ioremap_wc(). We use different page table attributes depending on which CPU we are running on: - Non-XScale ARMv5 and earlier systems: The ARMv5 ARM documents four possible mapping types (CB=00/01/10/11). We can't use any of the cached memory types (CB=10/11), since that breaks coherency with peripheral devices. Both CB=00 and CB=01 are suitable for _wc, and CB=01 (Uncached/Buffered) allows the hardware more freedom than CB=00, so we'll use that. (The ARMv5 ARM seems to suggest that CB=01 is allowed to delay stores but isn't allowed to merge them, but there is no other mapping type we can use that allows the hardware to delay and merge stores, so we'll go with CB=01.) - XScale v1/v2 (ARMv5): same as the ARMv5 case above, with the slight difference that on these platforms, CB=01 actually _does_ allow merging stores. (If you want noncoalescing bufferable behavior on Xscale v1/v2, you need to use XCB=101.) - Xscale v3 (ARMv5) and ARMv6+: on these systems, we use TEXCB=00100 mappings (Inner/Outer Uncacheable in xsc3 parlance, Uncached Normal in ARMv6 parlance). The ARMv6 ARM explicitly says that any accesses to Normal memory can be merged, which makes Normal memory more suitable for _wc mappings than Device or Strongly Ordered memory, as the latter two mapping types are guaranteed to maintain transaction number, size and order. We use the Uncached variety of Normal mappings for the same reason that we can't use C=1 mappings on ARMv5. The xsc3 Architecture Specification documents TEXCB=00100 as being Uncacheable and allowing coalescing of writes, which is also just what we need.

2008-09-06x86: HPET: read back compare register before reading counterThomas Gleixner
After fixing the u32 thinko I sill had occasional hickups on ATI chipsets with small deltas. There seems to be a delay between writing the compare register and the transffer to the internal register which triggers the interrupt. Reading back the value makes sure, that it hit the internal match register befor we compare against the counter value. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-09-06x86: HPET fix moronic 32/64bit thinkoThomas Gleixner
We use the HPET only in 32bit mode because: 1) some HPETs are 32bit only 2) on i386 there is no way to read/write the HPET atomic 64bit wide The HPET code unification done by the "moron of the year" did not take into account that unsigned long is different on 32 and 64 bit. This thinko results in a possible endless loop in the clockevents code, when the return comparison fails due to the 64bit/332bit unawareness. unsigned long cnt = (u32) hpet_read() + delta can wrap over 32bit. but the final compare will fail and return -ETIME causing endless loops.
