2005-12-12[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Don't call change_page_attr with a spinlock heldAndi Kleen
It's illegal because it can sleep. Use a two step lookup scheme instead. First look up the vm_struct, then change the direct mapping, then finally unmap it. That's ok because nobody can change the particular virtual address range as long as the vm_struct is still in the global list. Also added some LinuxDoc documentation to iounmap.

2005-12-12[PATCH] i386/x86-64 disable LAPIC completely for offline CPUShaohua Li
Disabling LAPIC timer isn't sufficient. In some situations, such as we enabled NMI watchdog, there is still unexpected interrupt (such as NMI) invoked in offline CPU. This also avoids offline CPU receives spurious interrupt and anything similar.

2005-12-12[PATCH] x86: fix NMI with CPU hotplugShaohua Li
With CPU hotplug enabled, NMI watchdog stoped working. It appears the violation is the cpu_online check in nmi handler. local ACPI based NMI watchdog is initialized before we set CPU online for APs.

2005-12-10[ARM] 3200/1: Singlestep over ARM BX and BLX instructions using ptrace fixNikola Valerjev
Patch from Nikola Valerjev Single stepping an application using ptrace() fails over ARM instructions BX and BLX. Steps to reproduce: Compile and link the following files main.c ----- void foo(); int main() { foo(); return 0; } foo.s ----- .text .globl foo foo: BX LR Using ptrace() functionality, run to main(), and start singlestepping. Singlestep over \"BX LR\" instruction won\'t transfer the control back to main, but run the code to completion. This problems seems to be in the function get_branch_address() in arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c. The function doesn\'t seem to recognize BX and BLX instructions as branches. BX and BLX instructions can be used to convert from ARM to Thumb mode if the target address has the low bit set. However, they are also perfectly legal in the ARM only mode. Although other things in the kernel seem to indicate that only ARM mode is accepted (and not Thumb), many compilers will generate BX and BLX instructions even when generating ARM only code.

2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Fix SLB flushing path in hugepageDavid Gibson
On ppc64, when opening a new hugepage region, we need to make sure any old normal-page SLBs for the area are flushed on all CPUs. There was a bug in this logic - after putting the new hugepage area masks into the thread structure, we copied it into the paca (read by the SLB miss handler) only on one CPU, not on all. This could cause incorrect SLB entries to be loaded when a multithreaded program was running simultaneously on several CPUs. This patch corrects the error, copying the context information into the PACA on all CPUs using the mm in question before flushing any existing SLB entries.

2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Add missing icache flushes for hugepagesDavid Gibson
On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed. Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this for hugepages, this patch corrects the situation. We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying the flush until userspace actually attempts to execute from the page in question. Tested on G5.

2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Set cache info defaultsOlof Johansson
Cache info is setup by walking the device tree in initialize_cache_info(). However, icache_flush_range might be called before that, in slb_initialize()->patch_slb_encoding, which modifies the load immediate instructions used with SLB fault code. Not only that, but depending on memory layout, we might take SLB faults during unflatten_device_tree. So that fault will load an SLB entry that might not contain the right LLP flags for the segment. Either we can walk the flattened device tree to setup cache info, or we can pick the known defaults that are known to work. Doing it in the flattened device tree is hairier since we need to know the machine type to know what property to look for, etc, etc. For now, it's just easier to go with the defaults. Worst thing that happens from it is that we might waste a few cycles doing too small dcbst/icbi increments.

2005-12-06[IA64] Change SET_PERSONALITY to comply with comment in binfmt_elf.c.Robin Holt
We have a customer application which trips a bug. The problem arises when a driver attempts to call do_munmap on an area which is mapped, but because current->thread.task_size has been set to 0xC0000000, the call to do_munmap fails thinking it is an unmap beyond the user's address space. The comment in fs/binfmt_elf.c in load_elf_library() before the call to SET_PERSONALITY() indicates that task_size must not be changed for the running application until flush_thread, but is for ia64 executing ia32 binaries. This patch moves the setting of task_size from SET_PERSONALITY() to flush_thread() as indicated. The customer application no longer is able to trip the bug.

2005-12-06[IA64] Limit the maximum NODEDATA_ALIGN() offsetJack Steiner
The per-node data structures are allocated with strided offsets that are a function of the node number. This prevents excessive cache-aliasing from occurring.

2005-12-05ppc: Build in all three of powermac, PREP and CHRP supportPaul Mackerras
This reverts commit da0825fd201a03294dbf7f8f030676d608da122c, making it so that if you select CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM you get support for PMAC, PREP and CHRP built in. The reason for not allowing PMAC, PREP and CHRP to be selected individually for ARCH=ppc is that there is too much interdependency between them in the platform support code. For example, CHRP uses the PMAC nvram code. Configuring with ARCH=powerpc does allow you to select support for PMAC and CHRP separately. Support for PREP is not there yet but should be there soon.
