'sub pc, pc, #1b-2b+8-2' results in address<1:0> == '10'. sub pc, pc, #const (== ADR pc, #const) performs an interworking branch (BXWritePC()) on ARMv7+ and a simple branch (BranchWritePC()) on earlier versions. In ARM state, BXWritePC() is UNPREDICTABLE when address<1:0> == '10'. In ARM state on ARMv6+, BranchWritePC() ignores address<1:0>. Before ARMv6, BranchWritePC() is UNPREDICTABLE if address<1:0> != '00' So the instruction is UNPREDICTABLE both before and after v6.

This reverts commit 6b5c8045. Conflicts: arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c The new syscall restarting code can lead to problems if we take an interrupt in userspace just before restarting the svc instruction. If a signal is delivered when returning from the interrupt, the TIF_SYSCALL_RESTARTSYS will remain set and cause any syscalls executed from the signal handler to be treated as a restart of the previously interrupted system call. This includes the final sigreturn call, meaning that we may fail to exit from the signal context. Furthermore, if a system call made from the signal handler requires a restart via the restart_block, it is possible to clear the thread flag and fail to restart the originally interrupted system call. The right solution to this problem is to perform the restarting in the kernel, avoiding the possibility of handling a further signal before the restart is complete. Since we're almost at -rc6, let's revert the new method for now and aim for in-kernel restarting at a later date.

ARM builds seem to be plagued by an occasional build error: Inconsistent kallsyms data This is a bug - please report about it Try "make KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1" as a workaround The problem has to do with alignment of some sections by the linker. The kallsyms data is built in two passes by first linking the kernel without it, and then linking the kernel again with the symbols included. Normally, this just shifts the symbols, without changing their order, and the compression used by the kallsyms gives the same result. On non SMP, the per CPU data is empty. Depending on the where the alignment ends up, it can come out as either: +-------------------+ | last text segment | +-------------------+ /* padding */ +-------------------+ <- L1_CACHE_BYTES alignemnt | per cpu (empty) | +-------------------+ __per_cpu_end: /* padding */ __data_loc: +-------------------+ <- THREAD_SIZE alignment | data | +-------------------+ or +-------------------+ | last text segment | +-------------------+ /* padding */ +-------------------+ <- L1_CACHE_BYTES alignemnt | per cpu (empty) | +-------------------+ __per_cpu_end: /* no padding */ __data_loc: +-------------------+ <- THREAD_SIZE alignment | data | +-------------------+ if the alignment satisfies both. Because symbols that have the same address are sorted by 'nm -n', the second case will be in a different order than the first case. This changes the compression, changing the size of the kallsym data, causing the build failure. The KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=1 workaround usually works, but it is still possible to have the alignment change between the second and third pass. It's probably even possible for it to never reach a fixedpoint. The problem only occurs on non-SMP, when the per-cpu data is empty, and when the data segment has alignment (and immediately follows the text segments). Fix this by only including the per_cpu section on SMP, when it is not empty. Signed-off-by: NDavid Brown <davidb@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a valid mm. To fix this we would need to use find_lock_task_mm(), which would walk up all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held). clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() has this issue fixed, so let's use it.

This patch adds support for CMA to dma-mapping subsystem for ARM architecture. By default a global CMA area is used, but specific devices are allowed to have their private memory areas if required (they can be created with dma_declare_contiguous() function during board initialisation). Contiguous memory areas reserved for DMA are remapped with 2-level page tables on boot. Once a buffer is requested, a low memory kernel mapping is updated to to match requested memory access type. GFP_ATOMIC allocations are performed from special pool which is created early during boot. This way remapping page attributes is not needed on allocation time. CMA has been enabled unconditionally for ARMv6+ systems.

Most PCI implementations use the standard PCI swizzle function, which handles the well defined behaviour of PCI-to-PCI bridges which can be found on cards (eg, four port ethernet cards.) Rather than having almost every platform specify the standard swizzle function, make this the default when no swizzle function is supplied. Therefore, a swizzle function only needs to be provided when there is something exceptional which needs to be handled. This gets rid of the swizzle initializer from 47 files, and leaves us with just two platforms specifying a swizzle function: ARM Integrator and Chalice CATS.

Commit 4e8ee7de (ARM: SMP: use idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting) switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during __cpu_up. This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings but be missing all dynamic mappings. If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually not affected because the offending console is suspended. Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem. A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

The ARM audit code incorrectly uses the saved application ip register value to infer syscall entry or exit. Additionally, the saved value will be clobbered if the current task is not being traced, which can lead to libc corruption if ip is live (apparently glibc uses it for the TLS pointer). This patch fixes the syscall tracing code so that the why parameter is used to infer the syscall direction and the saved ip is only updated if we know that we will be signalling a ptrace trap.

The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.
