It is strange that alloc_bootmem() returns a virtual address and free_bootmem() requires a physical address. Anyway, free_bootmem()'s first parameter should be physical address. There are some call sites for free_bootmem() with virtual address. So fix them.

Fix the x86-64 cache alignment code to take pgoff into account. Use the x86 and MIPS cache alignment code as the basis for a generic cache alignment function. The old x86 code will always align the mmap to aliasing boundaries, even if the program mmaps the file with a non-zero pgoff. If program A mmaps the file with pgoff 0, and program B mmaps the file with pgoff 1. The old code would align the mmaps, resulting in misaligned pages: A: 0123 B: 123 After this patch, they are aligned so the pages line up: A: 0123 B: 123 Proposed by Rik van Riel.

There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on others. This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings. This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow specifying the page size. It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the change fully compatible. Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward. Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is specified it uses the mount of the default page size. The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used. I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile, powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb sizes, so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

The kernel can only be entered on HYP mode on CPUs which actually support it, i.e. >= ARMv7. pre-v6 platform support cannot coexist in the same kernel as support for v7 and higher, so there is no advantage in having the HYP mode check on pre-v6 hardware. At least one pre-v6 board is known to fail when the HYP mode check code is present, although the exact cause remains unknown and may be unrelated. [1] This patch restores the old behaviour for pre-v6 platforms, whereby the CPSR is forced directly to SVC mode with IRQs and FIQs masked. All kernels capable of booting on v7 hardware will retain the check, so this should not impair functionality.

syscall_trace_exit is currently doing things back-to-front; invoking the audit hook *after* signalling the debugger, which presents an opportunity for the registers to be re-written by userspace in order to bypass auditing constaints. This patch fixes the ordering by moving the audit code first and the tracehook code last. On the face of it, it looks like current_thread_info()->syscall may be incorrect for the sys_exit tracepoint, but that's actually not an issue because it will have been set during syscall entry and cannot have changed since then.

Recent ARMv7 toolchains assume that unaligned memory accesses will not fault and will instead be handled by the processor. For the nommu case (without an MPU), memory will be treated as strongly-ordered and therefore unaligned accesses may fault regardless of the SCTLR.A setting. This patch passes -mno-unaligned-access to GCC when compiling for nommu targets, preventing the generation of unaligned memory access in the kernel.

HSMMC IP on AM33xx need a special setting to handle High-speed cards. Other platforms like TI81xx, OMAP4 may need this as-well. This depends on the HSMMC IP timing closure done for the high speed cards. From AM335x TRM (SPRUH73F - 18.3.12 Output Signals Generation): The MMC/SD/SDIO output signals can be driven on either falling edge or rising edge depending on the SD_HCTL[2] HSPE bit. This feature allows to reach better timing performance, and thus to increase data transfer frequency. There are few pre-requisites for enabling the HSPE bit - Controller should support High-Speed-Enable Bit and - Controller should not be using DDR Mode and - Controller should advertise that it supports High Speed in capabilities register and - MMC/SD clock coming out of controller > 25MHz Signed-off-by: NHebbar, Gururaja <gururaja.hebbar@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NVenkatraman S <svenkatr@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NChris Ball <cjb@laptop.org>

The problem occurs [1] when a kernel-mode task returns from a system call with a pending signal. A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ]. kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of "kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot). The loop is as follows: * syscall_exit_work: - work_pending: // start_of_the_loop - work_notifysig: - do_notify_resume() - do_signal() - if (!user_mode(regs)) return; - resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set - work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto // start_of_the_loop More information can be found in another LKML thread: http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,457826 [1] The problem was also reproduced on !CONFIG_VM86 x86, and the following fix was accepted. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=29a2e2836ff9ea65a603c89df217f4198973a74fSigned-off-by: NDmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/3571/Signed-off-by: NRalf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The architecture doesn't mandate any reset value for vttbr_el2. Better set it to a known value before some HYP code gets confused. Signed-off-by: NMarc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

If booted in EL2, install an dummy hypervisor whose only purpose is to be replaced by a full fledged one. A minimal API allows to: - obtain the current HYP vectors (__hyp_get_vectors) - set new HYP vectors (__hyp_set_vectors) Signed-off-by: NMarc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

To be able to signal the availability of EL2 to other parts of the kernel, record the boot mode. Once booted, two predicates indicate if HYP mode is available, and if not, whether this is due to a boot mode mismatch or not.

This macro is also useful to other bits defining vectors (hypervisor stub, KVM...). Move it to a common location. Signed-off-by: NMarc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
