Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms. When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot. This is a result of commit b732d439 that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled. MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers don't need to be enabled. The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag. Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp. The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the "jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the "addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked because any access to the stack is done through the frame pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when the function returns. This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount" instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the "addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When disabled, there will be two nops. This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started. Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the routines are SMP safe. When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops. Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

Commit d3ce8843 "MIPS: Fix modpost error in modules attepting to use virt_addr_valid()" moved __virt_addr_valid() from a macro in a header file to a function in ioremap.c.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

It looks like the original commit that copied the rom contents from efi always copied the rom, and the fixup in setup_efi_pci from commit 886d751a ("x86, efi: correct precedence of operators in setup_efi_pci") broke that. This resulted in macbook pro's no longer finding the rom images, and thus not being able to use the radeon card any more. The solution is to just remove the check for now, and always copy the rom if available.

commit f96972f2 "kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()" added a call to disable_nonboot_cpus() on kernel_restart(), which tries to shutdown all the CPUs except the first one. The issue with the PA Semi, is that it does not support CPU hotplug. When the call is made to __cpu_down(), it calls the notifiers CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, and then tries to take the CPU down. One of the notifiers to the CPU hotplug code, is the cpufreq. The DOWN_PREPARE will call __cpufreq_remove_dev() which calls cpufreq_driver->exit. The PA Semi exit handler unmaps regions of I/O that is used by an interrupt that goes off constantly (system_reset_common, but it goes off during normal system operations too). I'm not sure exactly what this interrupt does. Running a simple function trace, you can see it goes off quite a bit: # tracer: function # # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | | | <idle>-0 [001] 1558.859363: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.860112: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.861109: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [001] 1558.861361: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception <idle>-0 [000] 1558.861437: .pasemi_system_reset_exception <-.system_reset_exception When the region is unmapped, the system crashes with: Disabling non-boot CPUs ...

We have historically hard-coded entry points in head.S just so it's easy to build the executable/bzImage headers with references to them. Unfortunately, this leads to boot loaders abusing these "known" addresses even when they are *explicitly* told that they "should look at the ELF header to find this address, as it may change in the future". And even when the address in question *has* actually been changed in the past, without fanfare or thought to compatibility. Thus we have bootloaders doing stunningly broken things like jumping to offset 0x200 in the kernel startup code in 64-bit mode, *hoping* that startup_64 is still there (it has moved at least once before). And hoping that it's actually a 64-bit kernel despite the fact that we don't give them any indication of that fact. This patch should hopefully remove the temptation to abuse internal addresses in future, where sternly worded comments have not sufficed. Instead of having hard-coded addresses and saying "please don't abuse these", we actually pull the addresses out of the ELF payload into zoffset.h, and make build.c shove them back into the right places in the bzImage header. Rather than including zoffset.h into build.c and thus having to rebuild the tool for every kernel build, we parse it instead. The parsing code is small and simple. This patch doesn't actually move any of the interesting entry points, so any offending bootloader will still continue to "work" after this patch is applied. For some version of "work" which includes jumping into the compressed payload and crashing, if the bzImage it's given is a 32-bit kernel. No change there then.

When booting under OVMF we have precisely one GOP device, and it implements the ConOut protocol. We break out of the loop when we look at it... and then promptly abort because 'first_gop' never gets set. We should set first_gop *before* breaking out of the loop. Yes, it doesn't really mean "first" any more, but that doesn't matter. It's only a flag to indicate that a suitable GOP was found. In fact, we'd do just as well to initialise 'width' to zero in this function, then just check *that* instead of first_gop. But I'll do the minimal fix for now (and for stable@).

Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol: add xloadflags and additional fields to allow the command line, initramfs and struct boot_params to live above the 4 GiB mark. The xloadflags now communicates if this is a 64-bit kernel with the legacy 64-bit entry point and which of the EFI handover entry points are supported. Avoid adding new read flags to loadflags because of claimed bootloaders testing the whole byte for == 1 to determine bzImageness at least until the issue can be researched further.

efi.runtime_version is erroneously being set to the value of the vendor's firmware revision instead of that of the implemented EFI specification. We can't deduce which EFI functions are available based on the revision of the vendor's firmware since the version scheme is likely to be unique to each vendor.

At the moment the MSR driver only relies upon file system checks. This means that anything as root with any capability set can write to MSRs. Historically that wasn't very interesting but on modern processors the MSRs are such that writing to them provides several ways to execute arbitary code in kernel space. Sample code and documentation on doing this is circulating and MSR attacks are used on Windows 64bit rootkits already. In the Linux case you still need to be able to open the device file so the impact is fairly limited and reduces the security of some capability and security model based systems down towards that of a generic "root owns the box" setup. Therefore they should require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to prevent an elevation of capabilities. The impact of this is fairly minimal on most setups because they don't have heavy use of capabilities. Those using SELinux, SMACK or AppArmor rules might want to consider if their rulesets on the MSR driver could be tighter.

I ran out of free entries when I had CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled. Some other archs seem to default to 65536, so increase this limit for x86 too.

Fix build errors when CONFIG_INPUT=m. This is not pretty, but all of the OLPC kconfig options are bool instead of tristate. arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `send_lid_state': olpc-xo1-sci.c:(.text+0x1d323): undefined reference to `input_event' olpc-xo1-sci.c:(.text+0x1d338): undefined reference to `input_event' ... In the long run, fixing this driver kconfig to be tristate instead of bool would be a very good change.

The flush tlb optimization code has logical issue on UV platform. It doesn't flush the full range at all, since it simply ignores its 'end' parameter (and hence also the "all" indicator) in uv_flush_tlb_others() function. Cliff's notes: | I tested the patch on a UV. It has the effect of either | clearing 1 or all TLBs in a cpu. I added some debugging to | test for the cases when clearing all TLBs is overkill, and in | practice it happens very seldom.

The DSP bit mask for the RDDSP and WRDSP instructions was wrong. [ralf@linux-mips.org: The mask field of the RDDSP and WRDSP instructions is 10 bits long. DSP_MASK had all these fields which according to the architecture specification may result in UNPREDICTABLE operation.] Signed-off-by: NSteven J.
