The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

This is required because we only update the sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want new tasks to appear. On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu, so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state. So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.

On ARM, the PMU does not stop counting after an overflow and therefore IRQ latency affects the new counter value read by the kernel. This is significant for non-sampling runs where it is possible for the new value to overtake the previous one, causing the delta to be out by up to max_period events. Commit a737823d ("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency") attempted to fix this problem by allowing interrupt handlers to pass an overflow flag to the event update function, causing the overflow calculation to assume that the counter passed through zero when going from prev to new. Unfortunately, this doesn't work when overflow occurs on the perf_task_tick path because we have the flag cleared and end up computing a large negative delta. This patch removes the overflow flag from armpmu_event_update and instead limits the sample_period to half of the max_period for non-sampling profiling runs.

Current ARM local timer code registers CPUFREQ notifiers even in case the twd_timer_setup() isn't called. That seems to be wrong and would eventually lead to kernel crash on the CPU frequency transitions on the SOCs where the local timer doesn't exist or broken because of hardware BUG. Fix it by testing twd_evt and *__this_cpu_ptr(twd_evt). The issue was observed with v3.3-rc3 and building an OMAP2+ kernel on OMAP3 SOC which doesn't have TWD.

In a preemptible kernel, vfp_set() can be preempted, causing the hardware VFP context to be switched while the thread vfp state is being read and modified. This leads to a race condition which can cause the thread vfp state to become corrupted if lazy VFP context save occurs due to preemption in between the time thread->vfpstate is read and the time the modified state is written back. This may occur if preemption occurs during the execution of a ptrace() call which modifies the VFP register state of a thread. Such instances should be very rare in most realistic scenarios -- none has been reported, so far as I am aware. Only uniprocessor systems should be affected, since VFP context save is not currently lazy in SMP kernels. The problem was introduced by my earlier patch migrating to use regsets to implement ptrace. This patch does a vfp_sync_hwstate() before reading thread->vfpstate, to make sure that the thread's VFP state is not live in the hardware registers while the registers are modified.

Following execution of a signal handler, we currently restore the VFP context from the ucontext in the signal frame. This involves copying from the user stack into the current thread's vfp_hard_struct and then flushing the new data out to the hardware registers. This is problematic when using a preemptible kernel because we could be context switched whilst updating the vfp_hard_struct. If the current thread has made use of VFP since the last context switch, the VFP notifier will copy from the hardware registers into the vfp_hard_struct, overwriting any data that had been partially copied by the signal code. Disabling preemption across copy_from_user calls is a terrible idea, so instead we move the VFP thread flush *before* we update the vfp_hard_struct. Since the flushing is performed lazily, this has the effect of disabling VFP and clearing the CPU's VFP state pointer, therefore preventing the thread from being updated with stale data on the next context switch.

The dynamic ftrace ops startup test currently fails on Thumb-2 kernels: Testing tracer function: PASSED Testing dynamic ftrace: PASSED Testing dynamic ftrace ops #1: (0 0 0 0 0) FAILED! This is because while the addresses in the mcount records do not have the zero bit set, the IP reported by the mcount call does have it set (because it is copied from the LR). This mismatch causes the ops filtering in ftrace_ops_list_func() to not call the relevant tracers. Fix this by clearing the zero bit before adjusting the LR for the mcount instruction size.

On secondary CPUs, the Timer Control Register is not reset to a sane value before the timer is registered, and the TRM doesn't seem to indicate any reset value either. In some cases, the kernel will take an interrupt too early, depending on what junk was present in the registers at reset time. The fix is to set the Timer Control Register to 0 before registering the clock_event_device and enabling the interrupt. Problem seen on VE (Cortex A5) and Tegra.

This patch updates the script to use L1_CACHE_BYTES, which should be set to 64 on platforms that require it.

Now that all implementations of arch_idle() are equivalent to cpu_do_idle() we can just use the later directly and stop including mach/system.h.

Let's factor out the need_resched() check instead of having it duplicated in every pm_idle implementations to avoid inconsistencies (omap2_pm_idle is missing it already). The forceful re-enablement of IRQs after pm_idle has returned can go. The warning certainly doesn't trigger for existing users. To get rid of the pm_idle calling convention oddity, let's introduce arm_pm_idle() allowing for the local_irq_enable() to be factored out from SOC specific implementations. The default pm_idle function becomes a wrapper for arm_pm_idle and it takes care of enabling IRQs closer to where they are initially disabled. And finally move the comment explaining the reason for that turning off of IRQs to a more proper location.

We can stall RCU processing on SMP platforms if a CPU sits in its idle loop for a long time. This happens because we don't call irq_enter() and irq_exit() around generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() and friends. Add the necessary calls, and remove the one from within ipi_timer(), so that they're all in a common place. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

This patch provides functionality to audit system call events on the ARM platform. The implementation was based off the structure of the MIPS platform and information in this (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2009-October/000382.html) mailing list thread. The required audit_syscall_exit and audit_syscall_entry checks were added to ptrace using the standard registers for system call values (r0 through r3). A thread information flag was added for auditing (TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT) and a meta-flag was added (_TIF_SYSCALL_WORK) to simplify modifications to the syscall entry/exit. Now, if either the TRACE flag is set or the AUDIT flag is set, the syscall_trace function will be executed. The prober changes were made to Kconfig to allow CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL to be enabled. Due to platform availability limitations, this patch was only tested on the Android platform running the modified "android-goldfish-2.6.29" kernel. A test compile was performed using Code Sourcery's cross-compilation toolset and the current linux-3.0 stable kernel. The changes compile without error. I'm hoping, due to the simple modifications, the patch is "obviously correct". Signed-off-by: NNathaniel Husted <nhusted@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NEric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

This patch converts ARM's architecture-specific inlined 'pcibios_set_master()' routine to a non-inlined function. This will allow follow on patches to create a generic 'pcibios_set_master()' function using the '__weak' attribute which can be used by all architectures as a default which, if necessary, can then be over- ridden by architecture-specific code. Converting 'pci_bios_set_master()' to a non-inlined function will allow ARM's 'pcibios_set_master()' implementation to remain architecture- specific after the generic version is introduced and thus, not change current behavior. Note that ARM also has a non-inlined 'pcibios_set_master()' that is used if CONFIG_PCI_HOST_ITE8152 is defined. This patch does not change any behavior here either. No functional change.

Remove the now empty arch_reset() from all the mach/system.h includes, and remove its callsite. Remove arm_machine_restart() as this function no longer does anything useful. For samsung platforms, remove the include of mach/system-reset.h and plat/system-reset.h from their respective mach/system.h headers as these just define their arch_reset functions. As a result, the s3c2410 and plat-samsung system-reset.h files are no longer referenced, so remove these files entirely.
