Morally, the question of whether an address lies in a gate vma should be asked with respect to an mm, not a particular task. Moreover, dropping the dependency on task_struct will help make existing and future operations on mm's more flexible and convenient.

Morally, the presence of a gate vma is more an attribute of a particular mm than a particular task.

In some cases during a threaded core dump not all the threads will have a full register set. This happens when the signal causing the core dump races with a thread exiting. The race happens when the exiting thread has entered the kernel for the last time before the signal arrives, but doesn't get far enough through the exit code to avoid being included in the core dump. So we get a thread included in the core dump which is never going to go out to userspace again and only has a partial register set recorded Normally we would catch each thread as it is about to go into userspace and capture the full register set then. However, this exiting thread is never going to go out to userspace again, so we have no way to capture its full register set. It doesn't really matter, though, as this is a thread which is effectively already dead. So instead of hitting a BUG() in this case (a really bad choice of action in the first place), we use a poison value for the register values.

Commit b5d937de has a bug which causes basically a NULL dereference in the PCI code during boot on ppc64 machines. fetch_dev_dn() is called when dev->dev.of_node is NULL, so using that as the starting point for the search makes no sense. It should instead start from the device node of the PHB. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The combination of commit 8154c5d2 and 93c22703 Broke boot on iSeries. The problem is that iSeries very early boot code, which generates the device-tree and runs before our normal early initializations does need access the lppaca's very early, before the PACA array is initialized, and in fact even before the boot PACA has been initialized (it contains all 0's at this stage). However, the first patch above makes that code use the new llpaca_of(cpu) accessor, which itself is changed by the second patch to use the PACA array. We fix that by reverting iSeries to directly dereferencing the array. In addition, we fix all iterators in the iSeries code to always skip CPU whose number is above 63 which is the maximum size of that array and the maximum number of supported CPUs on these machines. Additionally, we make sure the boot_paca is properly initialized in our early startup code. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

arch/powerpc/kernel/ibmebus.c is the only remaining user of the of_bus_type support code for initializing the bus and registering drivers. All others have either been switched to the vanilla platform bus or already have their own infrastructure. This patch moves the functionality that ibmebus is using out of drivers/of/{platform,device}.c and into ibmebus.c where it is actually used. Also renames the moved symbols from of_platform_* to ibmebus_bus_* to reflect the actual usage. This patch is part of moving all of the of_platform_bus_type users over to the platform_bus_type.

Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use. This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> CC: stable@kernel.org

When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the cputable entry we have found. This used to be fine when cur_cpu_spec was a pointer to that entry, but nowadays, we copy the entry into a separate variable, and we do so before we call the setup_cpu() callback. That means that any attempt by that callback at patching the CPU table entry (to adjust CPU features for example) will patch the wrong table.

Currently, ppc32 uses sysdata for the pci_controller pointer, and ppc64 uses it to hold the device_node pointer. This patch moves the of_node pointer into (struct pci_bus*)->dev.of_node and (struct pci_dev*)->dev.of_node so that sysdata can be converted to always use the pci_controller pointer instead. It also fixes up the allocating of pci devices so that the of_node pointer gets assigned consistently and increments the ref count. Signed-off-by: NGrant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

Decoding machine checks is CPU specific and so machine_check_generic doesn't do the right thing on 64bit chips. Luckily we never call into this code because we call ppc_md.machine_check_exception instead if available. Since we check cur_cpu_spec->machine_check before calling it, we may as well remove machine_check_generic from 64bit archs.

When profiling a benchmark that is almost 100% userspace, I noticed some wildly inaccurate profiles that showed almost all time spent in the kernel. Closer examination shows we were programming a tiny number of cycles into the PMU after each overflow (about ~200 away from the next overflow). This gets us stuck in a loop which we eventually break out of by throttling the PMU (there are regular throttle/unthrottle events in the log). It looks like we aren't setting event->hw.last_period to something same and the frequency to period calculations in perf are going haywire. With the following patch we find the correct period after a few interrupts and stay there. I also see no more throttle events.
