      x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm · 831d52bc
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb
IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm.  And this window
can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange
failures.  One such problematic scenario is mentioned below.

 T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI
     etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1)
     and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2.

 T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with
     flushing the TLB for mm1.  It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1
     as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1).

 T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the
     page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping.

 T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something
     else.

 T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1
     can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches
     and can insert new TLB entries.  As the page-table pages are
     already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can
     potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the
     (random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2.

 T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3
     changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc.

To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to
another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is
changed.

Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that
can be attributed to this.

      x86, mtrr: Avoid MTRR reprogramming on BP during boot on UP platforms · f7448548
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      Markus Kohn ran into a hard hang regression on an acer aspire
1310, when acpi is enabled. git bisect showed the following
commit as the bad one that introduced the boot regression.

	commit d0af9eed
	Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>
	Date:   Wed Aug 19 18:05:36 2009 -0700

	    x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init

Because of the UP configuration of that platform,
native_smp_prepare_cpus() bailed out (in smp_sanity_check())
before doing the set_mtrr_aps_delayed_init()

Further down the boot path, native_smp_cpus_done() will call the
delayed MTRR initialization for the AP's (mtrr_aps_init()) with
mtrr_aps_delayed_init not set. This resulted in the boot
processor reprogramming its MTRR's to the values seen during the
start of the OS boot. While this is not needed ideally, this
shouldn't have caused any side-effects. This is because the
reprogramming of MTRR's (set_mtrr_state() that gets called via
set_mtrr()) will check if the live register contents are
different from what is being asked to write and will do the actual
write only if they are different.

BP's mtrr state is read during the start of the OS boot and
typically nothing would have changed when we ask to reprogram it
on BP again because of the above scenario on an UP platform. So
on a normal UP platform no reprogramming of BP MTRR MSR's
happens and all is well.

However, on this platform, bios seems to be modifying the fixed
mtrr range registers between the start of OS boot and when we
double check the live registers for reprogramming BP MTRR
registers. And as the live registers are modified, we end up
reprogramming the MTRR's to the state seen during the start of
the OS boot.

During ACPI initialization, something in the bios (probably smi
handler?) don't like this fact and results in a hard lockup.

We didn't see this boot hang issue on this platform before the
commit d0af9eed, because only
the AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the value that BP
had at the start of the OS boot.

Fix this issue by checking mtrr_aps_delayed_init before
continuing further in the mtrr_aps_init(). Now, only AP's (if
any) will program its MTRR's to the BP values during boot.

Addresses https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623393

  [ By the way, this behavior of the bios modifying MTRR's after the start
    of the OS boot is not common and the kernel is not prepared to
    handle this situation well. Irrespective of this issue, during
    suspend/resume, linux kernel will try to reprogram the BP's MTRR values
    to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. So suspend/resume might
    be already broken on this platform for all linux kernel versions. ]

      x86, nx: Don't force pages RW when setting NX bits · f12d3d04
      由 Matthieu CASTET 提交于 
      Xen want page table pages read only.

But the initial page table (from head_*.S) live in .data or .bss.

That was broken by 64edc8ed.  There is
absolutely no reason to force these pages RW after they have already
been marked RO.

      arm: omap4: panda: remove usb_nop_xceiv_register(v1) · ed2af92b
      由 Ming Lei 提交于 
      Panda uses both twl6030 otg phy(vbus, id) and internal
phy(data lines, DP/DM), so removes usb_nop_xceiv_register to make
twl6030 otg driver working since current otg code only supports
one global transceiver. Otherwise, musb doesn't work without
the remove.

      OMAP1: Fix non-working LCD on OMAP310 · 719078a6
      由 Marek Vasut 提交于 
      This patch fixes bug introduced in revision:

f8e9e984
omap1: DMA: move LCD related code from plat-omap to mach-omap1

The code introduced by this patch didn't consider any other CPUs but OMAP1510,
which rendered OMAP310 -- which has the same LCD controller -- non-working. Use
cpu_is_omap15xx() instead of cpu_is_omap1510() to squash this issue.

Bug found on Palm Zire 71 hardware.
