linux-toradex.git/arch/powerpc/kernel, branch v3.3.5 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules powerpc: Fix various issues with return to userspace 2012-02-22T05:48:53+00:00 Benjamin Herrenschmidt benh@kernel.crashing.org 2012-02-22T05:48:32+00:00 18b246fa60dd4bfc71c78d669e2ffaa5df454d6a We have a few problems when returning to userspace. This is a quick set of fixes for 3.3, I'll look into a more comprehensive rework for 3.4. This fixes: - We kept interrupts soft-disabled when schedule'ing or calling do_signal when returning to userspace as a result of a hardware interrupt. - Rename do_signal to do_notify_resume like all other archs (and do_signal_pending back to do_signal, which it was before Roland changed it). - Add the missing call to key_replace_session_keyring() to do_notify_resume().

powerpc: Fix program check handling when lockdep is enabled 2012-02-22T05:48:49+00:00 Michael Ellerman michael@ellerman.id.au 2012-02-20T21:32:30+00:00 922b9f86a020258d3ea3bfed27251efaed7a03a3 In commit 54321242afe ("Disable interrupts early in Program Check"), we switched from enabling to disabling interrupts in program_check_common. Whereas ENABLE_INTS leaves r3 untouched, if lockdep is enabled DISABLE_INTS calls into lockdep code and will clobber r3. That means we pass a bogus struct pt_regs* into program_check_exception() and all hell breaks loose. So load our regs pointer into r3 after we call DISABLE_INTS.

powerpc/perf: power_pmu_start restores incorrect values, breaking frequency events 2012-02-16T05:24:35+00:00 Anton Blanchard anton@samba.org 2012-02-15T18:48:22+00:00 9a45a9407c69d068500923480884661e2b9cc421 perf on POWER stopped working after commit e050e3f0a71b (perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling).

A kernel oops/panic prints an instruction dump showing several
instructions before and after the instruction which caused the
oops/panic.

The code intended that the faulting instruction be enclosed in angle
brackets, however a bug caused the faulting instruction to be
interpreted by printk() as the message log level.

To fix this, the KERN_CONT log level is added before the actual text of
the printed message.
