2012-11-09sparc64: Fix build with mix of modular vs. non-modular crypto drivers.David S. Miller
We tried linking in a single built object to hold the device table, but only works if all of the sparc64 crypto modules get built the same way (modular vs. non-modular). Just include the device ID stub into each driver source file so that the table gets compiled into the correct result in all cases. Reported-by: Meelis Roos <mroos@linux.ee> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-11-09sparc: Support atomic64_dec_if_positive properly.David S. Miller
Sparc32 already supported it, as a consequence of using the generic atomic64 implementation. And the sparc64 implementation is rather trivial. This allows us to set ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE for all of sparc, and avoid the annoying warning from lib/atomic64_test.c Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-09of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function ↵Andreas Larsson
for sparc again This bug-fix makes sure that of_address_to_resource is defined extern for sparc so that the sparc-specific implementation of of_address_to_resource() is once again used when including include/linux/of_address.h in a sparc context. A number of drivers in mainline relies on this function working for sparc. The bug was introduced in a850a7554442f08d3e910c6eeb4ee216868dda1e, "of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF". Contrary to that commit title, the static inlines are added for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS, and CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never defined for sparc. This is good behavior for the other functions in include/linux/of_address.h, as the extern functions defined in drivers/of/address.c only gets linked when OF_ADDRESS is configured. However, for of_address_to_resource there exists a sparc-specific implementation in arch/sparc/arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c Solution suggested by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Andreas Larsson <andreas@gaisler.com> Acked-by: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-10-27sparc64: Use pause instruction when available.David S. Miller

2012-10-27sparc64: Fix cpu strand yielding.David S. Miller
For atomic backoff, we just loop over an exponentially backed off counter. This is extremely ineffective as it doesn't actually yield the cpu strand so that other competing strands can use the cpu core. In cpus previous to SPARC-T4 we have to do this in a slightly hackish way, by doing an operation with no side effects that also happens to mark the strand as unavailable. The mechanism we choose for this is three reads of the %ccr (condition-code) register into %g0 (the zero register). SPARC-T4 has an explicit "pause" instruction, and we'll make use of that in a subsequent commit. Yield strands also in cpu_relax(). We really should have done this a very long time ago.

2012-10-26sparc64: Make montmul/montsqr/mpmul usable in 32-bit threads.David S. Miller
The Montgomery Multiply, Montgomery Square, and Multiple-Precision Multiply instructions work by loading a combination of the floating point and multiple register windows worth of integer registers with the inputs. These values are 64-bit. But for 32-bit userland processes we only save the low 32-bits of each integer register during a register spill. This is because the register window save area is in the user stack and has a fixed layout. Therefore, the only way to use these instruction in 32-bit mode is to perform the following sequence: 1) Load the top-32bits of a choosen integer register with a sentinel, say "-1". This will be in the outer-most register window. The idea is that we're trying to see if the outer-most register window gets spilled, and thus the 64-bit values were truncated. 2) Load all the inputs for the montmul/montsqr/mpmul instruction, down to the inner-most register window. 3) Execute the opcode. 4) Traverse back up to the outer-most register window. 5) Check the sentinel, if it's still "-1" store the results. Otherwise retry the entire sequence. This retry is extremely troublesome. If you're just unlucky and an interrupt or other trap happens, it'll push that outer-most window to the stack and clear the sentinel when we restore it. We could retry forever and never make forward progress if interrupts arrive at a fast enough rate (consider perf events as one example). So we have do limited retries and fallback to software which is extremely non-deterministic. Luckily it's very straightforward to provide a mechanism to let 32-bit applications use a 64-bit stack. Stacks in 64-bit mode are biased by 2047 bytes, which means that the lowest bit is set in the actual %sp register value. So if we see bit zero set in a 32-bit application's stack we treat it like a 64-bit stack. Runtime detection of such a facility is tricky, and cumbersome at best. For example, just trying to use a biased stack and seeing if it works is hard to recover from (the signal handler will need to use an alt stack, plus something along the lines of longjmp). Therefore, we add a system call to report a bitmask of arch specific features like this in a cheap and less hairy way. With help from Andy Polyakov. Signed-off-by: David S.

(c) Put a comment into uapi/asm-generic/kvm_para.h to prevent the patch program from deleting that, and made the arches with empty kvm_para.h uapi files use that instead of having their own files. (d) Put comments into four other empty uapi/ headers to prevent the patch program from deleting them. A question: Is this the right way to deal with the now-empty Kbuild files? The ones under include/ are unlikely to be used - even for generated files, I think - so getting rid of them is probably okay. Once all the bits are in, we can probably remove all the Kbuild files under include/ that aren't also under include/uapi/.

2012-10-16sparc64: Fix bit twiddling in sparc_pmu_enable_event().David S. Miller
There was a serious disconnect in the logic happening in sparc_pmu_disable_event() vs. sparc_pmu_enable_event(). Event disable is implemented by programming a NOP event into the PCR. However, event enable was not reversing this operation. Instead, it was setting the User/Priv/Hypervisor trace enable bits. That's not sparc_pmu_enable_event()'s job, that's what sparc_pmu_enable() and sparc_pmu_disable() do . The intent of sparc_pmu_enable_event() is clear, since it first clear out the event type encoding field. So fix this by OR'ing in the event encoding rather than the trace enable bits.

2012-10-12vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-10-09sparc64: Support transparent huge pages.David Miller
This is relatively easy since PMD's now cover exactly 4MB of memory. Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding. The lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation. This is possible because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use whatever encoding scheme we want. We just have to make the TLB miss assembler page table walkers aware of the layout. set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table. In the second regime we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping. We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added in the future. With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

2012-10-09sparc64: Eliminate PTE table memory wastage.David Miller
We've split up the PTE tables so that they take up half a page instead of a full page. This is in order to facilitate transparent huge page support, which works much better if our PMDs cover 4MB instead of 8MB. What we do is have a one-behind cache for PTE table allocations in the mm struct. This logic triggers only on allocations. For example, we don't try to keep track of free'd up page table blocks in the style that the s390 port does. There were only two slightly annoying aspects to this change: 1) Changing pgtable_t to be a "pte_t *". There's all of this special logic in the TLB free paths that needed adjustments, as did the PMD populate interfaces. 2) init_new_context() needs to zap the pointer, since the mm struct just gets copied from the parent on fork.

2012-10-09sparc64: Halve the size of PTE tablesDavid Miller
The reason we want to do this is to facilitate transparent huge page support. Right now PMD's cover 8MB of address space, and our huge page size is 4MB. The current transparent hugepage support is not able to handle HPAGE_SIZE != PMD_SIZE. So make PTE tables be sized to half of a page instead of a full page. We can still map properly the whole supported virtual address range which on sparc64 requires 44 bits. Add a compile time CPP test which ensures that this requirement is always met. There is a minor inefficiency added by this change. We only use half of the page for PTE tables. It's not trivial to use only half of the page yet still get all of the pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() stuff working properly. It is doable, and that will come in a subsequent change.

.fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access. Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

2012-10-09mm: hugetlb: add arch hook for clearing page flags before entering poolWill Deacon
The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing pages via free_pages_check. A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS) rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into userspace. This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages, since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the pool. This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page is freed into the pool.

2012-10-05sparc64: Niagara-4 bzero/memset, plus use MRU stores in page copy.David S. Miller
This adds optimized memset/bzero/page-clear routines for Niagara-4. We basically can do what powerpc has been able to do for a decade (via the "dcbz" instruction), which is use cache line clearing stores for bzero and memsets with a 'c' argument of zero. As long as we make the cache initializing store to each 32-byte subblock of the L2 cache line, it works. As with other Niagara-4 optimized routines, the key is to make sure to avoid any usage of the %asi register, as reads and writes to it cost at least 50 cycles. For the user clear cases, we don't use these new routines, we use the Niagara-1 variants instead. Those have to use %asi in an unavoidable way. A Niagara-4 8K page clear costs just under 600 cycles. Add definitions of the MRU variants of the cache initializing store ASIs. By default, cache initializing stores install the line as Least Recently Used. If we know we're going to use the data immediately (which is true for page copies and clears) we can use the Most Recently Used variant, to decrease the likelyhood of the lines being evicted before they get used.

Now it can be pulled in by including asm/compat.h or linux/compat.h.

2012-10-06cross-arch: don't corrupt personality flags upon exec()Jiri Kosina
Historically, the top three bytes of personality have been used for things such as ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE, which made sense only for specific architectures. We now however have a flag there that is general no matter the architecture (UNAME26); generally we have to be careful to preserve the personality flags across exec(). This patch tries to fix all architectures that forcefully overwrite personality flags during exec() (ppc32 and s390 have been fixed recently by commits f9783ec862ea ("[S390] Do not clobber personality flags on exec") and 59e4c3a2fe9c ("powerpc/32: Don't clobber personality flags on exec") in a similar way already).

2012-10-04sparc64: Rearrange thread info to cheaply clear syscall noerror state.Al Viro
After fixing a couple of brainos, it even seems to work. What's done here is move of ->syscall_noerror right before FPDEPTH byte in ->flags and using sth to [%g6 + TI_SYS_NOERROR] instead of stb to [%g6 + TI_FPDEPTH] in both branches of etrap_save. AFAICS, that ought to be solid. Again, deciding what to do with now unused delay slot of branch on ->syscall_noerror and dealing with the order of tests in ret_from_sys is a separate question, but at least that way we don't have to clean ->syscall_noerror in there at all. AFAICS, it ought to be a clear win - sth is not going to cost more than stb on etrap_64.S side of things, and we are losing write on syscalls.S one.

A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives, disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file leak. - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have). - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and switch of fdinfo to seq_file. - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to take that commit than mess with conflicts.
