      [SPARC]: Fix several regset and ptrace bugs. · d786a4a6
      David S. Miller 提交于
      1) ptrace should pass 'current' to task_user_regset_view()
      
      2) When fetching general registers using a 64-bit view, and
         the target is 32-bit, we have to convert.
      
      3) Skip the whole register window get/set code block if
         the user isn't asking to access anything in there.
      
         Otherwise we have problems if the user doesn't have
         an address space setup.  Fetching ptrace register is
         still valid at such a time, and ptrace does not try
         to access the register window area of the regset.

      pop previous section in alternative.c · f4be31ec
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      gcc expects all toplevel assembly to return to the original section type.
      The code in alteranative.c does not do this. This caused some strange bugs
      in sched-devel where code would end up in the .rodata section and when
      the kernel sets the NX bit on all .rodata, the kernel would crash when
      executing this code.
      
      This patch adds a .previous marker to return the code back to the
      original section.
      
      Credit goes to Andrew Pinski for telling me it wasn't a gcc bug but a
      bug in the toplevel asm code in the kernel.  ;-)

      [POWERPC] Fix MPC5200 (not B!) device tree so FEC ethernet works · 8d813941
      René Bürgel 提交于
      This gets the FEC ethernet driver working again on the lite5200
      platform.
      
      The FEC driver is also compatible with the MPC5200, not only with the
      MPC5200B, so this adds a suitable entry to the driver's match list.
      Furthermore this adds the settings for the PHY in the dts file for the
      Lite5200.  Note, that this is not exactly the same as in the
      Lite5200B, because the PHY is located at f0003000:01 for the 5200, and
      at :00 for the 5200B.  This was tested on a Lite5200 and a Lite5200B,
      both booted a kernel via tftp and mounted the root via nfs
      successfully.

      [POWERPC] Fix rtas_flash procfs interface · 74848398
      Maxim Shchetynin 提交于
      Handling of the proc_dir_entry->count was changed in 2.6.24-rc5.
      After this change, the default value for pde->count is 1 and not 0 as
      before.  Therefore, if we want to check whether our procfs file is
      already opened (already in use), we have to check if pde->count is
      greater than 2 rather than 1.

      [POWERPC] Fix deadlock with mmu_hash_lock in hash_page_sync · b991f05f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      hash_page_sync() takes and releases the low level mmu hash
      lock in order to sync with other processors disposing of page
      tables.  Because that lock can be needed to service hash misses
      triggered by interrupt handlers, taking it must be done with
      interrupts off.  However, hash_page_sync() appears to be called
      with interrupts enabled, thus causing occasional deadlocks.
      
      We fix it by making sure hash_page_sync() masks interrupts while
      holding the lock.

      [POWERPC] Fix iSeries hard irq enabling regression · ff3da2e0
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      A subtle bug sneaked into iSeries recently.  On this platform, we must
      not normally clear MSR:EE (the hardware external interrupt enable)
      except for short periods of time.  Taking an interrupt while
      soft-disabled doesn't cause us to clear it for example.
      
      The iSeries kernel expects to mostly run with MSR:EE enabled at all
      times except in a few exception entry/exit code paths.  Thus
      local_irq_enable() doesn't check if it needs to hard-enable as it
      expects this to be unnecessary on iSeries.
      
      However, hard_irq_disable() _does_ cause MSR:EE to be cleared,
      including on iSeries.  A call to it was recently added to the
      context switch code, thus causing interrupts to become disabled
      for a long periods of time, causing the iSeries watchdog to kick
      in under some circumstances and other nasty things.
      
      This patch fixes it by making local_irq_enable() properly re-enable
      MSR:EE on iSeries.  It basically removes a return statement here
      to make iSeries use the same code path as everybody else.  That does
      mean that we might occasionally get spurious decrementer interrupts
      but I don't think that matters.
      
      Another option would have been to make hard_irq_disable() a nop
      on iSeries but I didn't like it much, in case we have good reasons
      to hard-disable.
      
      Part of the patch is fixes to make sure the hard_enabled PACA field
      is properly set on iSeries as it used not to be before, since it
      was mostly unused.
