      [SPARC]: Fix sbusfb build. · c7006638
      David S. Miller 提交于
      sbusfb_compat_ioctl() needs to return int, not long, as that
      is what the fb_ops->fb_compat_ioctl method prototype wants.
      
      Need to git rid of the "struct file *file" first argument to
      fbiogetputcmap() and fbiogscursor() to match calls done in
      sbusfb_compat_ioctl().

      [SPARC]: change if() BUG(); to BUG_ON in iommu.c · 1ae61388
      Eric Sesterhenn 提交于
      this patch changes if() BUG(); constructs
      in iommu.c to BUG_ON(); so it gets save
      to define BUG() and BUG_ON() to nullstatements.

      [SPARC64]: Eliminate race condition reading Hummingbird STICK register · 9eb3394b
      Richard Mortimer 提交于
      Ensure a consistent value is read from the STICK register by ensuring
      that both high and low are read without high changing due to a roll
      over of the low register.
      
      Various Debian/SPARC users (myself include) have noticed problems with
      Hummingbird based systems. The symptoms are that the system time is
      seen to jump forward 3 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes give or take a few
      seconds. In many cases the system then hangs some time afterwards.
      
      I've spotted a race condition in the code to read the STICK register.
      I could not work out why 3d, 6h, 11m is important but guess that it is
      due to the 2^32 jump of STICK (forwards on one read and then the next
      read will seem to be backwards) during a timer interrupt. I'm guessing
      that a change of -2^32 will get converted to a large unsigned
      increment after the arithmetic manipulation between STICK,
      nanoseconds, jiffies etc.
      
      I did a test where I modified __hbird_read_stick to artificially
      inject rollover faults forcefully every few seconds. With this I saw
      the clock jump over 6 times in 12 hours compared to once every month
      or so.
