ARM: 6806/1: irq: introduce entry and exit functions for chained handlers · 10a8c383

由 Will Deacon 提交于 3月 14, 2011

Some chained IRQ handlers are written to cope with primary chips of
potentially different flow types. Whether this a sensible thing to do
is a point of contention.

This patch introduces entry/exit functions for chained handlers which
infer the flow type of the primary chip as fasteoi or level-type by
checking whether or not the ->irq_eoi function pointer is present and
calling back to the primary chip as necessary. Other methods of flow
control are not considered.

ARM: 6781/1: Thumb-2: Work around buggy Thumb-2 short branch relocations in gas · 6f685c5c

由 Dave Martin 提交于 3月 03, 2011

Various binutils versions can resolve Thumb-2 branches to
locally-defined, preemptible global symbols as short-range "b.n"
branch instructions.

This is a problem, because there's no guarantee the final
destination of the symbol, or any candidate locations for a
trampoline, are within range of the branch.  For this reason, the
kernel does not support fixing up the R_ARM_THM_JUMP11 (102)
relocation in modules at all, and it makes little sense to add
support.

The symptom is that the kernel fails with an "unsupported
relocation" error when loading some modules.

Until fixed tools are available, passing
-fno-optimize-sibling-calls to gcc should prevent gcc generating
code which hits this problem, at the cost of a bit of extra runtime
stack usage in some cases.

The problem is described in more detail at:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/binutils-linaro/+bug/725126

Only Thumb-2 kernels are affected.

This patch adds a new CONFIG_THUMB2_AVOID_R_ARM_THM_JUMP11 config
option which adds -fno-optimize-sibling-calls to CFLAGS_MODULE
when building a Thumb-2 kernel.

ARM: 6798/1: aout-core: zero thread debug registers in a.out core dump · 23bfdacf

由 Will Deacon 提交于 3月 10, 2011

The removal of the single-step emulation from ptrace on ARM means that
thread_struct no longer has software breakpoint fields in its debug
member.

This patch fixes the a.out core dump code so that the debug registers
are zeroed rather than trying to copy from non-existent fields.

ARM: 6784/1: errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain on Cortex-A9 · 5dab26af

由 Will Deacon 提交于 3月 04, 2011

On revisions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r2p0, the Store Buffer does not
have any automatic draining mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur
if an external agent continuously polls a memory location waiting to
observe an update.

This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.

ARM: 6772/1: errata: possible fault MMU translations following an ASID switch · fcbdc5fe

由 Will Deacon 提交于 2月 28, 2011

On the r2p* and r3p* versions of the Cortex-A9, a speculative memory
access may cause a page table walk which starts prior to an ASID switch
but completes afterwards. This can populate the micro-TLB with a stale
entry which may be hit with the new ASID.

This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm switching code so
that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.
