commit d71f290b4e98a39f49f2595a13be3b4d5ce8e1f1 upstream. Specify the maximum stack size for arches where the stack grows upward (parisc and metag) in asm/processor.h rather than hard coding in fs/exec.c so that metag can specify a smaller value of 256MB rather than 1GB. This fixes a BUG on metag if the RLIMIT_STACK hard limit is increased beyond a safe value by root. E.g. when starting a process after running "ulimit -H -s unlimited" it will then attempt to use a stack size of the maximum 1GB which is far too big for metag's limited user virtual address space (stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000): BUG: failure at fs/exec.c:589/shift_arg_pages()!

commit 57737c49dd72c96cfbcd4f66559f3ffc399aeb4f upstream. This commit: f8dae00684d678afa13041ef170cecfd1297ed40: parisc: Ensure full cache coherency for kmap/kunmap caused negative caching side-effects, e.g. hanging processes with expect and too many inequivalent alias messages from flush_dcache_page() on Debian 5 systems. This patch now partly reverts it and has been in production use on our debian buildd makeservers since a week without any major problems.

commit f8dae00684d678afa13041ef170cecfd1297ed40 upstream. Helge Deller noted a few weeks ago problems with the AIO support on parisc. This change is the result of numerous iterations on how best to deal with this problem. The solution adopted here is to provide full cache coherency in a uniform manner on all parisc systems. This involves calling flush_dcache_page() on kmap operations and flush_kernel_dcache_page() on kunmap operations. As a result, the copy_user_page() and clear_user_page() functions can be removed and the overall code is simpler. The change ensures that both userspace and kernel aliases to a mapped page are invalidated and flushed. This is necessary for the correct operation of PA8800 and PA8900 based systems which do not support inequivalent aliases. With this change, I have observed no cache related issues on c8000 and rp3440. It is now possible for example to do kernel builds with "-j64" on four way systems. On systems using XFS file systems, the patch recently posted by Mikulas Patocka to "fix crash using XFS on loopback" is needed to avoid a hang caused by an uninitialized lock passed to flush_dcache_page() in the page struct.

We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry, because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.
