commit 5f40b909728ad784eb43aa309d3c4e9bdf050781 upstream.

When booting a secondary CPU, the primary CPU hands two sets of page
tables via the secondary_data struct:

	(1) swapper_pg_dir: a normal, cacheable, shared (if SMP) mapping
	    of the kernel image (i.e. the tables used by init_mm).

	(2) idmap_pgd: an uncached mapping of the .idmap.text ELF
	    section.

The idmap is generally used when enabling and disabling the MMU, which
includes early CPU boot. In this case, the secondary CPU switches to
swapper as soon as it enters C code:

	struct mm_struct *mm = &amp;init_mm;
	unsigned int cpu = smp_processor_id();

	/*
	 * All kernel threads share the same mm context; grab a
	 * reference and switch to it.
	 */
	atomic_inc(&amp;mm-&gt;mm_count);
	current-&gt;active_mm = mm;
	cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(mm));
	cpu_switch_mm(mm-&gt;pgd, mm);

This causes a problem on ARMv7, where the identity mapping is treated as
strongly-ordered leading to architecturally UNPREDICTABLE behaviour of
exclusive accesses, such as those used by atomic_inc.

This patch re-orders the secondary_start_kernel function so that we
switch to swapper before performing any exclusive accesses.

<title>ARM: 7480/1: only call smp_send_stop() on SMP</title>

commit c5dff4ffd327088d85035bec535b7d0c9ea03151 upstream.

On reboot or poweroff (machine_shutdown()) a call to smp_send_stop() is
made (to stop the others CPU's) when CONFIG_SMP=y.

arch/arm/kernel/process.c:

void machine_shutdown(void)
{
 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
       smp_send_stop();
 #endif
}

smp_send_stop() calls the function pointer smp_cross_call(), which is set
on the smp_init_cpus() function for OMAP processors.

arch/arm/mach-omap2/omap-smp.c:

void __init smp_init_cpus(void)
{
...
	set_smp_cross_call(gic_raise_softirq);
...
}

But the ARM setup_arch() function only calls smp_init_cpus()
if CONFIG_SMP=y &amp;&amp; is_smp().

arm/kernel/setup.c:

void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p)
{
...
 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
	if (is_smp())
		smp_init_cpus();
 #endif
...
}

Newer OMAP CPU's are SMP machines so omap2plus_defconfig sets
CONFIG_SMP=y. Unfortunately on an OMAP UP machine is_smp()
returns false and smp_init_cpus() is never called and the
smp_cross_call() function remains NULL.

If the machine is rebooted or powered off, smp_send_stop() will
be called (since CONFIG_SMP=y) leading to the following error:

<title>ARM: 7414/1: SMP: prevent use of the console when using idmap_pgd</title>

Commit 4e8ee7de227e3ab9a72040b448ad728c5428a042 (ARM: SMP: use
idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting)
switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized
during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during
__cpu_up.  This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings
but be missing all dynamic mappings.

If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the
printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on
the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been
initialized, leading to a hang.  Initial boot is not affected
because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually
not affected because the offending console is suspended.
Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem.

A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until
after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

but be missing all dynamic mappings.

If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the
printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on
the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been
initialized, leading to a hang.  Initial boot is not affected
because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually
not affected because the offending console is suspended.
Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem.

A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until
after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

<title>ARM: 7405/1: kexec: call platform_cpu_kill on the killer rather than the victim</title>

When performing a kexec on an SMP system, the secondary cores are stopped
by calling machine_shutdown(), which in turn issues IPIs to offline the
other CPUs. Unfortunately, this isn't enough to reboot the cores into
a new kernel (since they are just executing a cpu_relax loop somewhere
in memory) so we make use of platform_cpu_kill, part of the CPU hotplug
implementation, to place the cores somewhere safe. This function expects
to be called on the killing CPU for each core that it takes out.

This patch moves the platform_cpu_kill callback out of the IPI handler
and into smp_send_stop, therefore ensuring that it executes on the
killing CPU rather than on the victim, matching what the hotplug code
requires.

Pull cpumask cleanups from Rusty Russell:
 "(Somehow forgot to send this out; it's been sitting in linux-next, and
  if you don't want it, it can sit there another cycle)"

I'm a sucker for things that actually delete lines of code.

Fix up trivial conflict in arch/arm/kernel/kprobes.c, where Rusty fixed
a user of &amp;cpu_online_map to be cpu_online_mask, but that code got
deleted by commit b21d55e98ac2 ("ARM: 7332/1: extract out code patch
function from kprobes").

Pull more ARM updates from Russell King.

This got a fair number of conflicts with the &lt;asm/system.h&gt; split, but
also with some other sparse-irq and header file include cleanups.  They
all looked pretty trivial, though.

Rather than open-coding the jiffy-based wait, and polling for the
secondary CPU to come online, use a completion instead.  This
removes the need to poll, instead we will be notified when the
secondary CPU has initialized.
