Prepare arm for the split page_table_lock: three issues. Signal handling's preserve and restore of iwmmxt context currently involves reading and writing that context to and from user space, while holding page_table_lock to secure the user page(s) against kswapd. If we split the lock, then the structure might span two pages, secured by to read into and write from a kernel stack buffer, copying that out and in without locking (the structure is 160 bytes in size, and here we're near the top of the kernel stack). Or would the overhead be noticeable? arm_syscall's cmpxchg emulation use pte_offset_map_lock, instead of pte_offset_map and mm-wide page_table_lock; and strictly, it should now also take mmap_sem before descending to pmd, to guard against another thread munmapping, and the page table pulled out beneath this thread. Updated two comments in fault-armv.c. adjust_pte is interesting, since its modification of a pte in one part of the mm depends on the lock held when calling update_mmu_cache for a pte in some other part of that mm. This can't be done with a split page_table_lock (and we've already taken the lowest lock in the hierarchy here): so we'll have to disable split on arm, unless CONFIG_CPU_CACHE_VIPT to ensures adjust_pte never used.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Since vmlinux.lds.S is preprocessed, we can use the defines already present in asm/memory.h (allowed by patch #3060) for the XIP kernel link address instead of relying on a duplicated Makefile hardcoded value, and also get rid of its dependency on awk to handle it at the same time. While at it let's clean XIP stuff even further and make things clearer in head.S with a nice code reduction.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Either no one is using an ARM710 with recent kernels, or all ARM710s still in use are not afflicted by this swi bug. Nevertheless, the code to work around the ARM710 swi bug is itself currently buggy since it uses r8 as a pointer to S_PC while in fact it holds the spsr content these days. Fix that, and simplify the code as well. Signed-off-by: NNicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Patch from Nicolas Pitre The prototype for sys_fadvise64_64() is: long sys_fadvise64_64(int fd, loff_t offset, loff_t len, int advice) The argument list is therefore as follows on legacy ABI: fd: type int (r0) offset: type long long (r1-r2) len: type long long (r3-sp[0]) advice: type int (sp[4]) With EABI this becomes: fd: type int (r0) offset: type long long (r2-r3) len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4]) advice: type int (sp[8]) Not only do we have ABI differences here, but the EABI version requires one additional word on the syscall stack. To avoid the ABI mismatch and the extra stack space required with EABI this syscall is now defined with a different argument ordering on ARM as follows: long sys_arm_fadvise64_64(int fd, int advice, loff_t offset, loff_t len) This gives us the following ABI independent argument distribution: fd: type int (r0) advice: type int (r1) offset: type long long (r2-r3) len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4]) Now, since the syscall entry code takes care of 5 registers only by default including the store of r4 to the stack, we need a wrapper to store r5 to the stack as well. Because that wrapper was missing and was always required this means that sys_fadvise64_64 never worked on ARM and therefore we can safely reuse its syscall number for our new sys_arm_fadvise64_64 interface.

It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes, confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled. The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked. 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_ NetBSD 2.0 *). The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this). 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being handled is not blocked. The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to the way most Unix boxes work. Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU 3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX. * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that behaves differently here with #2.

In yenta_socket, we default to using the resource setting of the CardBus bridge. However, this is a PCI-bus-centric view of resources and thus needs to be converted to generic resources first. Therefore, add a call to pcibios_bus_to_resource() call in between. This function is a mere wrapper on x86 and friends, however on some others it already exists, is added in this patch (alpha, arm, ppc, ppc64) or still needs to be provided (parisc -- where is its pcibios_resource_to_bus() ?).
