      [PATCH] ppc32: 8xx avoid icbi misbehaviour in __flush_dcache_icache_phys · bf85fa6c
      Anton Wllert 提交于
      On 8xx, in the case where a pagefault happens for a process who's not
      the owner of the vma in question (ptrace for instance), the flush
      operation is performed via the physical address.
      
      Unfortunately, that results in a strange, unexplainable "icbi"
      instruction fault, most likely due to a CPU bug (see oops below).
      
      Avoid that by flushing the page via its kernel virtual address.
      
      Oops: kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#2]

      [PATCH] 8xx: avoid "dcbst" misbehaviour with unpopulated TLB · bb165746
      Marcelo Tosatti 提交于
      The proposed _tlbie call at update_mmu_cache() is safe because:
      
      Addresses for which update_mmu_cache() gets invocated are never inside the
      static kernel virtual mapping, meaning that there is no risk for the
      _tlbie() here to be thrashing the pinned entry, as Dan suspected.
      
      The intermediate TLB state in which this bug can be triggered is not
      visible by userspace or any other contexts, except the page fault handling
      path.  So there is no need to worry about userspace dcbxxx users.
      
      The other solution to this is to avoid dcbst misbehaviour in the first
      place, which involves changing in-kernel "dcbst" callers to use 8xx
      specific SPR's.
      
      Summary:
      
      On 8xx, cache control instructions (particularly "dcbst" from
      flush_dcache_icache) fault as write operation if there is an unpopulated
      TLB entry for the address in question.  To workaround that, we invalidate
      the TLB here, thus avoiding dcbst misbehaviour.

      [PATCH] ppc32: don't call progress functions after boot · 6c37a88c
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      On ppc32, the platform code can supply a "progress" function that is
      used to show progress through the boot.  These functions are usually
      in an init section and so can't be called after the init pages are
      freed.  Now that the cpu bringup code can be called after the system
      is booted (for hotplug cpu) we can get the situation where the
      progress function can be called after boot.  The simple fix is to set
      the progress function pointer to NULL when the init pages are freed,
      and that is what this patch does (note that all callers already check
      whether the function pointer is NULL before trying to call it).

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
