commit 2ad5d52d42810bed95100a3d912679d8864421ec upstream.

In swab.h the "#if BITS_PER_LONG &gt; 32" breaks compiling userspace programs if
BITS_PER_LONG is #defined by userspace with the sizeof() compiler builtin.

Solve this problem by using __BITS_PER_LONG instead.  Since we now
#include asm/bitsperlong.h avoid further potential userspace pollution
by moving the #define of SHIFT_PER_LONG to bitops.h which is not
exported to userspace.

This patch unbreaks compiling qemu on hppa/parisc.

<title>parisc: Purge TLB before setting PTE</title>

commit c78e710c1c9fbeff43dddc0aa3d0ff458e70b0cc upstream.

The attached change interchanges the order of purging the TLB and
setting the corresponding page table entry.  TLB purges are strongly
ordered.  It occurred to me one night that setting the PTE first might
have subtle ordering issues on SMP machines and cause random memory
corruption.

A TLB lock guards the insertion of user TLB entries.  So after the TLB
is purged, a new entry can't be inserted until the lock is released.
This ensures that the new PTE value is used when the lock is released.

Since making this change, no random segmentation faults have been
observed on the Debian hppa buildd servers.

commit 65bf34f59594c11f13d371c5334a6a0a385cd7ae upstream.

Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for 64-bit kernels to
64 MB and for 32-bit kernels to 32 MB.

Due to the additional support of ftrace, tracepoint and huge pages the kernel
size can exceed the sizes we used up to now.

commit 690d097c00c88fa9d93d198591e184164b1d8c20 upstream.

Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for SMP kernels to 32MB
and add a runtime check which panics early if the kernel is bigger than the
initial mapping size.

This fixes boot crashes of 32bit SMP kernels. Due to the introduction of huge
page support in kernel 4.4 and it's required initial kernel layout in memory, a
32bit SMP kernel usually got bigger (in layout, not size) than 16MB.

commit 3eb53b20d7bd1374598cfb1feaa081fcac0e76cd upstream.

When building gccgo in userspace, errno.h gets parsed and the go include file
sysinfo.go is generated.

Since EREFUSED is defined to the same value as ECONNREFUSED, and ECONNREFUSED
is defined later on in errno.h, this leads to go complaining that EREFUSED
isn't defined yet.

Fix this trivial problem by moving the define of EREFUSED down after
ECONNREFUSED in errno.h (and clean up the indenting while touching this line).

commit 2ef4dfd9d9f288943e249b78365a69e3ea3ec072 upstream.

Handling exceptions from modules never worked on parisc.
It was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules
don't happen during normal use.

When a module triggers an exception in get_user() we need to load the
main kernel dp value before accessing the exception_data structure, and
afterwards restore the original dp value of the module on exit.

commit e60fc5aa608eb38b47ba4ee058f306f739eb70a0 upstream.

On a 64bit kernel build the compiler aligns the _sifields union in the
struct siginfo_t on a 64bit address. The __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE define
compensates for this alignment and thus fixes the wait testcase of the
strace package.

The symptoms of a wrong __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE value is that
_sigchld.si_stime variable is missed to be copied and thus after a
copy_siginfo() will have uninitialized values.

commit b0e551313ebde17764f3a5ed273df524d1e7e690 upstream.

PA-RISC doesn't have atomic instructions to modify page table entries, so it
takes spinlock in the TLB handler and modifies the page table entry
non-atomically. If you modify the page table entry without the spinlock, you
may race with TLB handler on another CPU and your modification may be lost.
Protect against that with usage of purge_tlb_start() and purge_tlb_end() which
handles the TLB spinlock.
