linux-toradex.git/arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S, branch v3.3.4 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules ARM: 7384/1: ThumbEE: Disable userspace TEEHBR access for !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE 2012-04-22T22:38:55+00:00 Jonathan Austin Jonathan.Austin@arm.com 2012-04-12T16:45:25+00:00 3bb3d575767c0e0978a079ce3765607b95ad2ce2 commit 078c04545ba56da21567728a909a496df5ff730d upstream. Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot jails. This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to access TEEHBR.

commit 078c04545ba56da21567728a909a496df5ff730d upstream.

Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE
register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state
of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the
ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour
when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing
covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot
jails.

This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR
when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to
access TEEHBR.

ARM: 7197/1: errata: Remove SMP dependency for erratum 751472

Activation conditions for a workaround should not be encoded in the
workaround's direct dependencies if this makes otherwise reasonable
configuration choices impossible.

This patches uses the SMP/UP patching facilities instead to compile
out the workaround if the configuration means that it is definitely
not needed.

This means that configs for buggy silicon can simply select
ARM_ERRATA_751472, without preventing a UP kernel from being built
or duplicatiing knowledge about when to activate the workaround.
This seems the correct way to do things, because the erratum is a
property of the silicon, irrespective of what the kernel config
happens to be.

This patch adds the MMU initialisation for the LPAE page table format.
The swapper_pg_dir size with LPAE is 5 rather than 4 pages. A new
proc-v7-3level.S file contains the TTB initialisation, context switch
and PTE setting code with the LPAE. The TTBRx split is based on the
PAGE_OFFSET with TTBR1 used for the kernel mappings. The 36-bit mappings
(supersections) and a few other memory types in mmu.c are conditionally
compiled.
