      ARM: 8465/1: mm: keep reserved ASIDs in sync with mm after multiple rollovers · 40ee068e
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      Under some unusual context-switching patterns, it is possible to end up
with multiple threads from the same mm running concurrently with
different ASIDs:

1. CPU x schedules task t with mm p containing ASID a and generation g
   This task doesn't block and the CPU doesn't context switch.
   So:
     * per_cpu(active_asid, x) = {g,a}
     * p->context.id = {g,a}

2. Some other CPU generates an ASID rollover. The global generation is
   now (g + 1). CPU x is still running t, with no context switch and
   so per_cpu(reserved_asid, x) = {g,a}

3. CPU y schedules task t', which shares mm p with t. The generation
   mismatches, so we take the slowpath and hit the reserved ASID from
   CPU x. p is then updated so that p->context.id = {g + 1,a}

4. CPU y schedules some other task u, which has an mm != p.

5. Some other CPU generates *another* CPU rollover. The global
   generation is now (g + 2). CPU x is still running t, with no context
   switch and so per_cpu(reserved_asid, x) = {g,a}.

6. CPU y once again schedules task t', but now *fails* to hit the
   reserved ASID from CPU x because of the generation mismatch. This
   results in a new ASID being allocated, despite the fact that t is
   still running on CPU x with the same mm.

Consequently, TLBIs (e.g. as a result of CoW) will not be synchronised
between the two threads.

This patch fixes the problem by updating all of the matching reserved
ASIDs when we hit on the slowpath (i.e. in step 3 above). This keeps
the reserved ASIDs in-sync with the mm and avoids the problem.

      ARM: 8454/1: OF implies OF_FLATTREE · aa7d5f18
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      On the ARM architecture, individual platforms select CONFIG_USE_OF if they
need it, but all device tree code is keyed off CONFIG_OF. When building
a platform without DT support and manually enabling CONFIG_OF, we now
get a number of build errors, e.g.

arch/arm/kernel/devtree.c: In function 'setup_machine_fdt':
arch/arm/kernel/devtree.c:215:19: error: implicit declaration of function 'early_init_dt_verify' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

We could now try to separate the use case of booting from DT vs. the
case of using the dynamic implementation, but that seems more complicated
than it can gain us.

This simply changes the ARM Kconfig file to always enable OF_RESERVED_MEM
and OF_EARLY_FLATTREE when CONFIG_OF is enabled. These options add a little
extra code when we just want the dynamic OF implementation, but that seems
like a rather obscure case, and this version solves all CONFIG_OF related
randconfig regressions.
