set memory ranges in N_NORMAL_MEMORY when onlined

2011-05-09T22:54:52+00:00

commit d9b41e0b54fd7e164daf1e9c539c1070398aa02e upstream.

When a DISCONTIGMEM memory range is brought online as a NUMA node, it
also needs to have its bet set in N_NORMAL_MEMORY.  This is necessary for
generic kernel code that utilizes N_NORMAL_MEMORY as a subset of N_ONLINE
for memory savings.

These types of hacks can hopefully be removed once DISCONTIGMEM is either
removed or abstracted away from CONFIG_NUMA.

Fixes a panic in the slub code which only initializes structures for
N_NORMAL_MEMORY to save memory:

parisc : Remove broken line wrapping handling pdc_iodc_print()

2011-02-17T23:37:06+00:00

commit fbea668498e93bb38ac9226c7af9120a25957375 upstream.

Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print().
It is broken in 3 ways :
  - It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just
    assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the
    screen.
  - It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't
    increase the current position on the screen.
  - And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace
    is the first char in the provided buffer :

 Backtrace:
  [<0000000040128ec4>] pdc_console_write+0x44/0x78
  [<0000000040128f18>] pdc_console_tty_write+0x20/0x38

  [<0000000040104eb8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14

Most terminals handle the line wrapping just fine. I've confirmed that
it works correctly on a C8000 with both vga and serial output.

compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()

2010-09-20T20:17:57+00:00

commit c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6 upstream.

compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

parisc: pass through '\t' to early (iodc) console

2010-08-10T17:20:38+00:00

commit d9b68e5e88248bb24fd4e455588bea1d56108fd6 upstream.

The firmware handles '\t' internally, so stop trying to emulate it
(which, incidentally, had a bug in it.)

Fixes a really weird hang at bootup in rcu_bootup_announce, which,
as far as I can tell, is the first printk in the core kernel to use
a tab as the first character.

commit 550f0d922286556c7ea43974bb7921effb5a5278 upstream.

Clear the floating point exception flag before returning to
user space. This is needed, else the libc trampoline handler
may hit the same SIGFPE again while building up a trampoline
to a signal handler.
