Make VMAs per mm_struct as for MMU-mode linux. This solves two problems: (1) In SYSV SHM where nattch for a segment does not reflect the number of shmat's (and forks) done. (2) In mmap() where the VMA's vm_mm is set to point to the parent mm by an exec'ing process when VM_EXECUTABLE is specified, regardless of the fact that a VMA might be shared and already have its vm_mm assigned to another process or a dead process. A new struct (vm_region) is introduced to track a mapped region and to remember the circumstances under which it may be shared and the vm_list_struct structure is discarded as it's no longer required. This patch makes the following additional changes: (1) Regions are now allocated with alloc_pages() rather than kmalloc() and with no recourse to __GFP_COMP, so the pages are not composite. Instead, each page has a reference on it held by the region. Anything else that is interested in such a page will have to get a reference on it to retain it. When the pages are released due to unmapping, each page is passed to put_page() and will be freed when the page usage count reaches zero. (2) Excess pages are trimmed after an allocation as the allocation must be made as a power-of-2 quantity of pages. (3) VMAs are added to the parent MM's R/B tree and mmap lists. As an MM may end up with overlapping VMAs within the tree, the VMA struct address is appended to the sort key. (4) Non-anonymous VMAs are now added to the backing inode's prio list. (5) Holes may be punched in anonymous VMAs with munmap(), releasing parts of the backing region. The VMA and region structs will be split if necessary. (6) sys_shmdt() only releases one attachment to a SYSV IPC shared memory segment instead of all the attachments at that addresss. Multiple shmat()'s return the same address under NOMMU-mode instead of different virtual addresses as under MMU-mode. (7) Core dumping for ELF-FDPIC requires fewer exceptions for NOMMU-mode. (8) /proc/maps is now the global list of mapped regions, and may list bits that aren't actually mapped anywhere. (9) /proc/meminfo gains a line (tagged "MmapCopy") that indicates the amount of RAM currently allocated by mmap to hold mappable regions that can't be mapped directly. These are copies of the backing device or file if not anonymous. These changes make NOMMU mode more similar to MMU mode. The downside is that NOMMU mode requires some extra memory to track things over NOMMU without this patch (VMAs are no longer shared, and there are now region structs).

Commit 8ec53663 ("[ARM] Improve non-executable support") added support for detecting non-executable stack binaries. One of the things it does is to make READ_IMPLIES_EXEC be set in ->personality if we are running on a CPU that doesn't support the XN ("Execute Never") page table bit or if we are running a binary that needs an executable stack. This exposed a latent bug in ARM's asm/processor.h due to which we'll end up placing the stack at a very low address, where it will bump into the heap on any application that uses significant amount of stack or heap or both, causing many interesting crashes. Fix this by testing the ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT bit in ->personality instead of testing for equality against PER_LINUX_32BIT.

Commit 0c65f459 intended to fix truncation issues with fls() on ARMv5+ by renaming it to __fls() and wrapping it into a C function. However that didn't take into account the fact that __fls() already already had different semantics in the kernel. Let's move the __fls() code into fls() function directly, and redefine __fls() with the appropriate semantics. While at it, bring a generic __fls() definition for pre ARMv5 too.

When ISA_DMA_API is unset, we're not implementing the ISA DMA API, so there's no point in publishing the prototypes via asm/dma.h, nor including the machine dependent parts of that API. This allows us to remove a lot of mach/dma.h files which don't contain any useful code. Unfortunately though, some platforms put their own private non-ISA definitions into mach/dma.h, so we leave these behind and fix the appropriate #include statments.

Let's provide an overridable default instead of having every machine class define __virt_to_bus and __bus_to_virt to the same thing. What most platforms are using is bus_addr == phys_addr so such is the default. One exception is ebsa110 which has no DMA what so ever, so the actual definition is not important except only for proper compilation. Also added a comment about the special footbridge bus translation. Let's also remove comments alluding to set_dma_addr which is not (and should not) be commonly used.

We used to override the copy_user_page() function. However, this is not only inefficient, it also causes additional complexity for highmem support, since we convert from a struct page to a kernel direct mapped address and back to a struct page again. Moreover, with highmem support, we end up pointlessly setting up kmap entries for pages which we're going to remap. So, push the kmapping down into the copypage implementation files where it's required. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

The IOP321 manual says: The user designates the memory region containing the OCCDR as non-cacheable and non-bufferable from the IntelR XScaleTM core.

As of 73bdf0a6, the kernel needs to know where modules are located in the virtual address space. On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END. Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END. Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() can work properly. Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the vmalloc space. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Impact: fix crashes that can occur in NMI handlers, if their code is modified Modifying code is something that needs special care. On SMP boxes, if code that is being modified is also being executed on another CPU, that CPU will have undefined results. The dynamic ftrace uses kstop_machine to make the system act like a uniprocessor system. But this does not address NMIs, that can still run on other CPUs. One approach to handle this is to make all code that are used by NMIs not be traced. But NMIs can call notifiers that spread throughout the kernel and this will be very hard to maintain, and the chance of missing a function is very high. The approach that this patch takes is to have the NMIs modify the code if the modification is taking place. The way this works is that just writing to code executing on another CPU is not harmful if what is written is the same as what exists. Two buffers are used: an IP buffer and a "code" buffer. The steps that the patcher takes are: 1) Put in the instruction pointer into the IP buffer and the new code into the "code" buffer. 2) Set a flag that says we are modifying code 3) Wait for any running NMIs to finish. 4) Write the code 5) clear the flag. 6) Wait for any running NMIs to finish. If an NMI is executed, it will also write the pending code. Multiple writes are OK, because what is being written is the same. Then the patcher must wait for all running NMIs to finish before going to the next line that must be patched. This is basically the RCU approach to code modification. Thanks to Ingo Molnar for suggesting the idea, and to Arjan van de Ven for his guidence on what is safe and what is not.
