      Reason for this crash is a gcc miscompilation in the fault handlers of
      pa_memcpy() which return the fault address instead of the copied bytes.
      Since this seems to be a generic problem with gcc-4.7.x (and below), it's
      better to simplify the fault handlers in pa_memcpy to avoid this problem.
      
      Here is a simple reproducer for the problem:
      
      int main(int argc, char **argv)
      {
      	int fd, nbytes;
      	struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
      		{ "TEST STRING                     ",32},
      		{ (char*)0x40005000,32} }; // random memory.
      	fd = open(DATA_FILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
      	nbytes = writev(fd, wr_iovec, 2);
      	printf("return value = %d, errno %d (%s)\n",
      		nbytes, errno, strerror(errno));
      	return 0;
      }
      
      In addition, John David Anglin wrote:
      There is no gcc PR as pa_memcpy is not legitimate C code. There is an
      implicit assumption that certain variables will contain correct values
      when an exception occurs and the code randomly jumps to one of the
      exception blocks.  There is no guarantee of this.  If a PR was filed, it
      would likely be marked as invalid.

      [PATCH] spinlock consolidation · fb1c8f93
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
      de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
      things:
      
       - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code
      
       - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files
      
       - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
         features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.
      
       - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.
      
      Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
      located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
      variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)
      
      Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
      write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
      All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
      spin/rwlock lockups.
      
      The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
      subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
      lives in the generic headers:
      
       include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
       include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16
      
      I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
      making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:
      
         SMP                         |  UP
         ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
         asm/spinlock_types_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_types_up.h
         linux/spinlock_types.h      |  linux/spinlock_types.h
         asm/spinlock_smp.h          |  linux/spinlock_up.h
         linux/spinlock_api_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_api_up.h
         linux/spinlock.h            |  linux/spinlock.h
      
      /*
       * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
       *
       * on SMP builds:
       *

       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:

       *                        implementations, mostly inline assembly code
       *
       *   (also included on UP-debug builds:)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
       *                        contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
       *
       *  linux/spinlock.h:     builds the final spin_*() APIs.
       *
       * on UP builds:
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
       *                        contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.
       *                        (which is an empty structure on non-debug builds)
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
       *                        defines the generic type and initializers
       *
       *  linux/spinlock_up.h:
       *                        contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. version of UP
       *                        builds. (which are NOPs on non-debug, non-preempt
       *                        builds)
       *
       *   (included on UP-non-debug builds:)

      arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
      crosscompilers.  m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
      be mostly fine.

        Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
        Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
        non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.
      
        I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
        some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
        are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
        expect any new issues to arise with them.
      
       If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
        need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
        that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
        (load and clear word).

      [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite · dae409a2
      James Bottomley 提交于
      In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the
      underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main
      consumer, is LE).
      
      However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are
      actually Big Endian.  There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and
      chip types are attached to LE systems.  Thus, there's a need for a BE
      equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations.
      
      The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be.  When it's in,
      I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
