      ARM: 7670/1: fix the memset fix · 418df63a
      Nicolas Pitre 提交于
      Commit 455bd4c4 ("ARM: 7668/1: fix memset-related crashes caused by
      recent GCC (4.7.2) optimizations") attempted to fix a compliance issue
      with the memset return value.  However the memset itself became broken
      by that patch for misaligned pointers.
      
      This fixes the above by branching over the entry code from the
      misaligned fixup code to avoid reloading the original pointer.
      
      Also, because the function entry alignment is wrong in the Thumb mode
      compilation, that fixup code is moved to the end.
      
      While at it, the entry instructions are slightly reworked to help dual
      issue pipelines.

      ARM: 7668/1: fix memset-related crashes caused by recent GCC (4.7.2) optimizations · 455bd4c4
      Ivan Djelic 提交于
      Recent GCC versions (e.g. GCC-4.7.2) perform optimizations based on
      assumptions about the implementation of memset and similar functions.
      The current ARM optimized memset code does not return the value of
      its first argument, as is usually expected from standard implementations.
      
      For instance in the following function:
      
      void debug_mutex_lock_common(struct mutex *lock, struct mutex_waiter *waiter)
      {
      	memset(waiter, MUTEX_DEBUG_INIT, sizeof(*waiter));
      	waiter->magic = waiter;
      	INIT_LIST_HEAD(&waiter->list);
      }
      
      compiled as:
      
      800554d0 <debug_mutex_lock_common>:
      800554d0:       e92d4008        push    {r3, lr}
      800554d4:       e1a00001        mov     r0, r1
      800554d8:       e3a02010        mov     r2, #16 ; 0x10
      800554dc:       e3a01011        mov     r1, #17 ; 0x11
      800554e0:       eb04426e        bl      80165ea0 <memset>
      800554e4:       e1a03000        mov     r3, r0
      800554e8:       e583000c        str     r0, [r3, #12]
      800554ec:       e5830000        str     r0, [r3]
      800554f0:       e5830004        str     r0, [r3, #4]
      800554f4:       e8bd8008        pop     {r3, pc}
      
      GCC assumes memset returns the value of pointer 'waiter' in register r0; causing
      register/memory corruptions.
      
      This patch fixes the return value of the assembly version of memset.
      It adds a 'mov' instruction and merges an additional load+store into
      existing load/store instructions.
      For ease of review, here is a breakdown of the patch into 4 simple steps:
      
      Step 1
      ======
      Perform the following substitutions:
      ip -> r8, then
      r0 -> ip,
      and insert 'mov ip, r0' as the first statement of the function.
      At this point, we have a memset() implementation returning the proper result,
      but corrupting r8 on some paths (the ones that were using ip).
      
      Step 2
      ======
      Make sure r8 is saved and restored when (! CALGN(1)+0) == 1:
      
      save r8:
      -       str     lr, [sp, #-4]!
      +       stmfd   sp!, {r8, lr}
      
      and restore r8 on both exit paths:
      -       ldmeqfd sp!, {pc}               @ Now <64 bytes to go.
      +       ldmeqfd sp!, {r8, pc}           @ Now <64 bytes to go.
      (...)
              tst     r2, #16
              stmneia ip!, {r1, r3, r8, lr}
      -       ldr     lr, [sp], #4
      +       ldmfd   sp!, {r8, lr}
      
      Step 3
      ======
      Make sure r8 is saved and restored when (! CALGN(1)+0) == 0:
      
      save r8:
      -       stmfd   sp!, {r4-r7, lr}
      +       stmfd   sp!, {r4-r8, lr}
      
      and restore r8 on both exit paths:
              bgt     3b
      -       ldmeqfd sp!, {r4-r7, pc}
      +       ldmeqfd sp!, {r4-r8, pc}
      (...)
              tst     r2, #16
              stmneia ip!, {r4-r7}
      -       ldmfd   sp!, {r4-r7, lr}
      +       ldmfd   sp!, {r4-r8, lr}
      
      Step 4
      ======
      Rewrite register list "r4-r7, r8" as "r4-r8".

      [ARM] remove memzero() · 59f0cb0f
      Russell King 提交于
      As suggested by Andrew Morton, remove memzero() - it's not supported
      on other architectures so use of it is a potential build breaking bug.
      Since the compiler optimizes memset(x,0,n) to __memzero() perfectly
      well, we don't miss out on the underlying benefits of memzero().

      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!
