There is currently a hardcoded limit of 64KB for the DTB to live in and be extended with ATAG info. Some DTBs have outgrown that limit: $ du -b arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-n900.dtb 70212 arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-n900.dtb Furthermore, the actual size passed to atags_to_fdt() included the stack size which is obviously wrong. The initial DTB size is known, so use it to size the allocated workspace with a 50% growth assumption and relocate the temporary stack above that. This is also clamped to 32KB min / 1MB max for robustness against bad DTB data.

To speed up decompression, the decompressor sets up a flat, cacheable mapping of memory. However, when there is insufficient space to hold the page tables for this mapping, we don't bother to enable the caches and subsequently skip all the cache maintenance hooks. Skipping the cache maintenance before jumping to the relocated code allows the processor to predict the branch and populate the I-cache with stale data before the relocation loop has completed (since a bootloader may have SCTLR.I set, which permits normal, cacheable instruction fetches regardless of SCTLR.M). This patch moves the cache maintenance check into the maintenance routines themselves, allowing the v6/v7 versions to invalidate the I-cache regardless of the MMU state.

With patch #8067/1 ("zImage: ensure header in LE format for BE8 kernels") applied, it is no longer possible to determine the endianness of a compiled kernel image. This normally shouldn't matter to the boot environment, except for those cases where the selection of a ramdisk or root filesystem with a matching endianness has to be automated. Let's add a flag to the zImage header indicating the actual endianness. Four bytes from offset 0x30 can be interpreted as follows: 04 03 02 01 big endian kernel 01 02 03 04 little endian kernel Anything else should be interpreted as "unknown", in which case it is most likely that patch #8067/1 was not applied either and the zImage magic number at offset 0x24 could be used instead to determine endianness. No zImage before this patch ever produced 0x01020304 nor 0x04030201 at offset 0x30 so there is no confusion possible.

This changes the stack protector config option into a choice of "None", "Regular", and "Strong": CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG "Regular" means the old CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y option. "Strong" is a new mode introduced by this patch. With "Strong" the kernel is built with -fstack-protector-strong (available in gcc 4.9 and later). This option increases the coverage of the stack protector without the heavy performance hit of -fstack-protector-all. For reference, the stack protector options available in gcc are: -fstack-protector-all: Adds the stack-canary saving prefix and stack-canary checking suffix to _all_ function entry and exit. Results in substantial use of stack space for saving the canary for deep stack users (e.g. historically xfs), and measurable (though shockingly still low) performance hit due to all the saving/checking. Really not suitable for sane systems, and was entirely removed as an option from the kernel many years ago. -fstack-protector: Adds the canary save/check to functions that define an 8 (--param=ssp-buffer-size=N, N=8 by default) or more byte local char array. Traditionally, stack overflows happened with string-based manipulations, so this was a way to find those functions. Very few total functions actually get the canary; no measurable performance or size overhead. -fstack-protector-strong Adds the canary for a wider set of functions, since it's not just those with strings that have ultimately been vulnerable to stack-busting. With this superset, more functions end up with a canary, but it still remains small compared to all functions with only a small change in performance. Based on the original design document, a function gets the canary when it contains any of: - local variable's address used as part of the right hand side of an assignment or function argument - local variable is an array (or union containing an array), regardless of array type or length - uses register local variables https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/document/d/1xXBH6rRZue4f296vGt9YQcuLVQHeE516stHwt8M9xyU Find below a comparison of "size" and "objdump" output when built with gcc-4.9 in three configurations: - defconfig 11430641 kernel text size 36110 function bodies - defconfig + CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR 11468490 kernel text size (+0.33%) 1015 of 36110 functions are stack-protected (2.81%) - defconfig + CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG via this patch 11692790 kernel text size (+2.24%) 7401 of 36110 functions are stack-protected (20.5%) With -strong, ARM's compressed boot code now triggers stack protection, so a static guard was added. Since this is only used during decompression and was never used before, the exposure here is very small. Once it switches to the full kernel, the stack guard is back to normal. Chrome OS has been using -fstack-protector-strong for its kernel builds for the last 8 months with no problems.

SH-Mobile platforms are transitioning from non-multiplatform to multiplatform kernel. A new ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI configuration symbol has been created to group all multiplatform-enabled SH-Mobile SoCs. The existing ARCH_SHMOBILE configuration symbol groups SoCs that haven't been converted yet. This arrangement works fine for the arch/ code, but lots of drivers needed on both ARCH_SHMOBILE and ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI depend on ARCH_SHMOBILE only. In order to avoid changing them, rename ARCH_SHMOBILE to ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY, and create a new boolean ARCH_SHMOBILE configuration symbol that is selected by both ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY and ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI.

The Shark machine sub-architecture (also known as DNARD, the DIGITAL Network Appliance Reference Design) lacks a maintainer able to apply and test patches to modernize the architecture. It is suspected that the current kernel, while it compiles, does not even boot on this machine. The listed maintainer has expressed that he will not be able to spend any time on the maintenance for the coming year. So let's delete it from the kernel for now. It can always be resurrected with git revert if maintenance is resumed. As the VIA82c505 PCI adapter was only used by this architecture, that gets deleted too.

In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change into binutils labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on deprecated registers", apparently as part of ARMv8 support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit the message "Warning: This coprocessor register access is deprecated in ARMv8" when using certain mcr/mrc instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately, the message that is actually emitted appears to be '(null)', which is less helpful in comparison. Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on every single kernel build with a new gas, because arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some other files in that directory are built with -march=all since kernel commit 80cec14a "[ARM] Add -march=all to assembly file build in arch/arm/boot/compressed" back in v2.6.28. This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and instead marks the head.S file to be built for armv7-a, which fortunately lets us build all instructions in that file without warnings even on the broken binutils. Without this patch, building anything results in: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S: Assembler messages: arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:565: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:676: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:698: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:722: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:726: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:957: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:996: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:997: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1027: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1035: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1046: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1060: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1092: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1094: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1095: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1102: Warning: (null) arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:1134: Warning: (null) Signed-off-by: NArnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Matthew Gretton-Dann <matthew.gretton-dann@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

When CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB is selected, if the bootloader provides an ATAG_MEM it replaces the memory size and the memory address in the memory node of the device tree. In the case of a system which can handle more than 4GB, the memory node cell size is 4: each data (memory size and memory address) are 64 bits and then use 2 cells. The current code in atags_to_fdt.c made the assumption of a cell size of 2 (one cell for the memory size and one cell for the memory address), this leads to an improper write of the data and ends with a boot hang. This patch writes the memory size and the memory address on the memory node in the device tree depending of the size of the memory node (32 bits or 64 bits).

Instead of giving zero support of uncompress debug for multiplatform build, the patch turns uncompress debug into one part of DEBUG_LL support. When DEBUG_LL is turned on for a particular platform, uncompress debug works too for that platform. OMAP and Tegra are exceptions here. OMAP low-level debug code places data in the .data section, and that is not allowed in decompressor. And Tegra code has reference to variable that's unavailable in decompressor but only in kernel. That's why Kconfig symbol DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS controlling multiplatform uncompress debug support is defined with !DEBUG_OMAP2PLUS_UART && !DEBUG_TEGRA_UART. It creates arch/arm/boot/compressed/debug.S with CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE included there, implements a generic putc() using those macros, which will be built when DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS is defined.

Following the approach handling DEBUG_LL inclusion, the patch creates a Kconfig symbol CONFIG_UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE for choosing the correct uncompress header. For traditional build, mach/uncompress.h will be included in arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c. For multiplatform build, debug/uncompress.h which contains a suite of empty functions will be used. In this way, a platform with particular uncompress.h implementation could choose its own uncompress.h with this Kconfig option.

Before jumping to (position independent) C-code from the decompressor's assembler world we set-up the C environment. This setup currently does not set r9, which for arm-none-uclinux-uclibceabi toolchains is by default expected to be the PIC offset base register (IE should point to the beginning of the GOT). Currently, therefore, in order to build working kernels that use the decompressor it is necessary to use an arm-linux-gnueabi toolchain, or similar. uClinux toolchains cause a prefetch abort to occur at the beginning of the decompress_kernel function. This patch allows uClinux toolchains to build bootable zImages by forcing the -mno-single-pic-base option, which ensures that the location of the GOT is re-derived each time it is required, and r9 becomes free for use as a general purpose register. This has a small (4% in instruction terms) advantage over the alternative of setting r9 to point to the GOT before calling into the C-world.

ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG is only used in lib/inflate.c which is not included in arch/arm/boot/compressed/decompress.c now. That said, ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG is not used at all. Let's remove it. Signed-off-by: NShawn Guo <shawn.guo@linaro.org> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org>

Commit 91a9fec0 (ARM: move debug macros to common location) moves arch/arm/kernel/debug.S and arch/arm/kernel/head.S to CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE, but leaves arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S still with mach/debug-macro.S. This causes the following build error on platforms that moved to new DEBUG_LL inclusion mechanism, when arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S is compiled with DEBUG turned on. AS arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.o arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S:49:30: fatal error: mach/debug-macro.S: No such file or directory compilation terminated. Fix the problem by replacing mach/debug-macro.S inclusion with CONFIG_DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE one.

Modern GCC can generate code which makes use of the CPU's native unaligned memory access capabilities. This is useful for the C decompressor implementations used for unpacking compressed kernels. This patch disables alignment faults and enables the v6 unaligned access model on CPUs which support these features (i.e., v6 and later), allowing full unaligned access support for C code in the decompressor. The decompressor C code must not be built to assume that unaligned access works if support for v5 or older platforms is included in the kernel. For correct code generation, C decompressor code must always use the get_unaligned and put_unaligned accessors when dealing with unaligned pointers, regardless of this patch.

The zImage loader needs to turn on the MMU in order to take advantage of caching while decompressing the zImage. Running this in hyp mode would require the LPAE pagetable format to be supported; to avoid this complexity, this patch switches out of hyp mode, and returns back to hyp mode just before booting the kernel. This implementation assumes that the Hyp mode view of memory and the PL1 view of memory are coherent, providing that the MMU and caches are off in both, as required by the boot protocol. The zImage decompression code must drain the write buffer on completion anyway, and entry into Hyp mode should flush any prefetch buffer, avoiding hazards associated with local write buffers and the pipeline.

This patch zeroes the SCTLR.TRE bit prior to setting the mapping as cacheable for ARMv7 cores in the decompressor, ensuring that the memory region attributes are obtained from the C and B bits, not from the page tables.

This lets us build a multiplatform kernel for experimental purposes. However, it will not be useful for any real work, because it relies on a number of useful things to be disabled for now: * SMP support must be turned off because of conflicting symbols. Marc Zyngier has proposed a solution by adding a new SOC operations structure to hold indirect function pointers for these, but that work is currently stalled * We turn on SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, which is not supported on most platforms. Each of them is currently in a different state, but most are being worked on. * A common clock framework is in place since v3.4 but not yet being used. Work on this is on its way. * DEBUG_LL for early debugging is currently disabled. * THUMB2_KERNEL does not work with allyesconfig because the kernel gets too big [Rob Herring]: Rebased to not be dependent on the mass mach header rename. As a result, omap2plus, imx, mxs and ux500 are not converted. Highbank, picoxcell, mvebu, and socfpga are converted.
