2011-09-21MIPS: Compat: Use 32-bit wrapper for compat_sys_futex.Yong Zhang
We can't trust userspace to pass signed-extend arguments. Not correctly sign-extended arguments to futex-wait result in architecturally undefined operation of 32-bit arithmetic instructions. For example, if 'val' is too big and bit-31 is 1, the caller may enter endless loop at: futex_wait_setup() { ... if (uval != val) { queue_unlock(q, *hb); ret = -EWOULDBLOCK; ... } Signed-off-by: Yong Zhang <yong.zhang@windriver.com> To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/2714/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2011-09-21MIPS: Handle __put_user() sleeping.Ralf Baechle
do_signal() does __put_user() which can fault, resulting in a might_sleep() warning in down_read(&mm->mmap_sem) and a "scheduling while atomic" warning when mmap_sem is contented. On Swarm this also results in: WARNING: at kernel/smp.c:459 smp_call_function_many+0x148/0x398() Modules linked in: Call Trace: [<ffffffff804b48a4>] dump_stack+0x1c/0x50 [<ffffffff8013dc94>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc8 [<ffffffff8013dcfc>] warn_slowpath_null+0x2c/0x40 [<ffffffff801864a0>] smp_call_function_many+0x148/0x398 [<ffffffff80186748>] smp_call_function+0x58/0xa8 [<ffffffff80119b5c>] r4k_flush_data_cache_page+0x54/0xd8 [<ffffffff801f39bc>] handle_pte_fault+0xa9c/0xad0 [<ffffffff801f40d0>] handle_mm_fault+0x158/0x200 [<ffffffff80115548>] do_page_fault+0x218/0x3b0 [<ffffffff80102744>] ret_from_exception+0x0/0x10 [<ffffffff8010eb18>] copy_siginfo_to_user32+0x50/0x298 [<ffffffff8010edf0>] setup_rt_frame_32+0x90/0x250 [<ffffffff80106414>] do_notify_resume+0x154/0x358 [<ffffffff80102930>] work_notifysig+0xc/0x14 Fixed by enabling interrupts in do_notify_resume before delivering signals.

2011-07-01perf, arch: Add generic NODE cache eventsPeter Zijlstra
Add a NODE level to the generic cache events which is used to measure local vs remote memory accesses. Like all other cache events, an ACCESS is HIT+MISS, if there is no way to distinguish between reads and writes do reads only etc.. The below needs filling out for !x86 (which I filled out with unsupported events). I'm fairly sure ARM can leave it like that since it doesn't strike me as an architecture that even has NUMA support. SH might have something since it does appear to have some NUMA bits. Sparc64, PowerPC and MIPS certainly want a good look there since they clearly are NUMA capable.

2011-07-01perf: Remove the nmi parameter from the swevent and overflow interfacePeter Zijlstra
The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the resulting interrupt do the wakeup. For the various event classes: - hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from the PMI-tail (ARM etc.) - tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context. - software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot perform wakeups, and hence need 0. As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented). The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

2011-05-28Merge branch 'setns'Linus Torvalds
* setns: ns: Wire up the setns system call Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to addition of sendmmsg system call
2011-05-28ns: Wire up the setns system callEric W. Biederman
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked at closely and I can't find any problems. setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I don't expect any weird architecture porting problems. While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was new in the 2.6.39. v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W.

2011-05-20extable, core_kernel_data(): Make sure all archs define _sdataSteven Rostedt
A new utility function (core_kernel_data()) is used to determine if a passed in address is part of core kernel data or not. It may or may not return true for RO data, but this utility must work for RW data. Thus both _sdata and _edata must be defined and continuous, without .init sections that may later be freed and replaced by volatile memory (memory that can be freed). This utility function is used to determine if data is safe from ever being freed. Thus it should return true for all RW global data that is not in a module or has been allocated, or false otherwise. Also change core_kernel_data() back to the more precise _sdata condition and document the function.
