      [ARM] 3881/4: xscale: clean up cp0/cp1 handling · afe4b25e
      由 Lennert Buytenhek 提交于 
      XScale cores either have a DSP coprocessor (which contains a single
40 bit accumulator register), or an iWMMXt coprocessor (which contains
eight 64 bit registers.)

Because of the small amount of state in the DSP coprocessor, access to
the DSP coprocessor (CP0) is always enabled, and DSP context switching
is done unconditionally on every task switch.  Access to the iWMMXt
coprocessor (CP0/CP1) is enabled only when an iWMMXt instruction is
first issued, and iWMMXt context switching is done lazily.

CONFIG_IWMMXT is supposed to mean 'the cpu we will be running on will
have iWMMXt support', but boards are supposed to select this config
symbol by hand, and at least one pxa27x board doesn't get this right,
so on that board, proc-xscale.S will incorrectly assume that we have a
DSP coprocessor, enable CP0 on boot, and we will then only save the
first iWMMXt register (wR0) on context switches, which is Bad.

This patch redefines CONFIG_IWMMXT as 'the cpu we will be running on
might have iWMMXt support, and we will enable iWMMXt context switching
if it does.'  This means that with this patch, running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=n
kernel on an iWMMXt-capable CPU will no longer potentially corrupt iWMMXt
state over context switches, and running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=y kernel on a
non-iWMMXt capable CPU will still do DSP context save/restore.

These changes should make iWMMXt work on PXA3xx, and as a side effect,
enable proper acc0 save/restore on non-iWMMXt capable xsc3 cores such
as IOP13xx and IXP23xx (which will not have CONFIG_CPU_XSCALE defined),
as well as setting and using HWCAP_IWMMXT properly.

      [PATCH] pidspace: is_init() · f400e198
      由 Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于 
      This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

      [PATCH] make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ · df67b3da
      由 Jason Baron 提交于 
      Make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ for a number of architectures which don't
support write only in hardware.

While looking at this, I noticed that some architectures which do not
support write only mappings already take the exact same approach.  For
example, in arch/alpha/mm/fault.c:

"
        if (cause < 0) {
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_EXEC))
                        goto bad_area;
        } else if (!cause) {
                /* Allow reads even for write-only mappings */
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_WRITE)))
                        goto bad_area;
        } else {
                if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
                        goto bad_area;
        }
"

Thus, this patch brings other architectures which do not support write only
mappings in-line and consistent with the rest.  I've verified the patch on
ia64, x86_64 and x86.

Additional discussion:

Several architectures, including x86, can not support write-only mappings.
The pte for x86 reserves a single bit for protection and its two states are
read only or read/write.  Thus, write only is not supported in h/w.

Currently, if i 'mmap' a page write-only, the first read attempt on that page
creates a page fault and will SEGV.  That check is enforced in
arch/blah/mm/fault.c.  However, if i first write that page it will fault in
and the pte will be set to read/write.  Thus, any subsequent reads to the page
will succeed.  It is this inconsistency in behavior that this patch is
attempting to address.  Furthermore, if the page is swapped out, and then
brought back the first read will also cause a SEGV.  Thus, any arbitrary read
on a page can potentially result in a SEGV.

According to the SuSv3 spec, "if the application requests only PROT_WRITE, the
implementation may also allow read access." Also as mentioned, some
archtectures, such as alpha, shown above already take the approach that i am
suggesting.

The counter-argument to this raised by Arjan, is that the kernel is enforcing
the write only mapping the best it can given the h/w limitations.  This is
true, however Alan Cox, and myself would argue that the inconsitency in
behavior, that is applications can sometimes work/sometimes fails is highly
undesireable.  If you read through the thread, i think people, came to an
agreement on the last patch i posted, as nobody has objected to it...
