Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for sparc64 Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag. Race : parent process executing : sys_ptrace() (lock_kernel()) (ptrace_get_task_struct(pid)) arch_ptrace() ptrace_detach() ptrace_disable(child); clear_singlestep(child); clear_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_SINGLESTEP); (which clears the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag atomically from a different process) (put_task_struct(child)) (unlock_kernel()) And at the same time, in the child process : sys_execve() do_execve() search_binary_handler() load_elf_binary() flush_old_exec() flush_thread() doing a non-atomic thread flag update Signed-off-by: NMathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

We mistakedly modify 'bus' in the innermost loop. What should happen is that at each register index iteration, we start with the same 'bus'. So preserve it's value at the top level, and use a loop local variable 'dbus' for iteration. This bug causes registers other than the first to be decoded improperly. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This reverts some bogosity from the dynamic command-line changes made on sparc32 and sparc64. Drivers such as drivers/sbus/char/openprom.c reference saved_command_line, and can be modular. The boot_command_line is __initdata, yet the dynamic command-line changes add modular exports of that symbol, obviously wrong. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

I noticed that almost all architectures implemented exactly the same sys32_sysinfo... except parisc, where a bug was to be found in handling of the uptime. So let's remove a whole whack of code for fun and profit. Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it would be the best tested. This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in asm/termios.h. There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios structure. The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h anyway. So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too. Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case there are plans to use them yet.

This is kind of hokey, we could use the hardware provided facilities much better. MSIs are assosciated with MSI Queues. MSI Queues generate interrupts when any MSI assosciated with it is signalled. This suggests a two-tiered IRQ dispatch scheme: MSI Queue interrupt --> queue interrupt handler MSI dispatch --> driver interrupt handler But we just get one-level under Linux currently. What I'd like to do is possibly stick the IRQ actions into a per-MSI-Queue data structure, and dispatch them form there, but the generic IRQ layer doesn't provide a way to do that right now. So, the current kludge is to "ACK" the interrupt by processing the MSI Queue data structures and ACK'ing them, then we run the actual handler like normal. We are wasting a lot of useful information, for example the MSI data and address are provided with ever MSI, as well as a system tick if available. If we could pass this into the IRQ handler it could help with certain things, in particular for PCI-Express error messages. The MSI entries on sparc64 also tell you exactly which bus/device/fn sent the MSI, which would be great for error handling when no registered IRQ handler can service the interrupt. We override the disable/enable IRQ chip methods in sun4v_msi, so we have to call {mask,unmask}_msi_irq() directly from there. This is another ugly wart. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Mirror the logic in the sun4u handler, we have to update both registers even when we branch out to window fault fixup handling. The way it works is that if we are in etrap processing a fault already, g4/g5 holds the original fault information. If we take a window spill fault while doing etrap, then we put the window spill fault info into g4/g5 and this is what the top-level fault handler ends up processing first. Then we retry the originally faulting instruction, and process the original fault at that time. This is all necessary because of how constrained the trap registers are in these code paths. These cases trigger very rarely, so even if there is some performance implication it's doesn't happen very often. In fact the rarity is why it took so long to trigger and find this particular bug.

Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b9c) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up' This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are defined as __devinit AND __cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions. Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration, we get a .text refering .init.data warning. This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or are of __init type. Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would land up in .init section.

- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just leave regs->tnpc as-is. This covers cases like 'jmpl' which branch to absolute values. - To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including cases like add_aggr_kprobe() - prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match the type of the value it is saving - jprobes were totally broken: = jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler, or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong register window than the one from the original probe state. So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap. = There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved at %sp at jprobe trigger time. Those registers cannot be modified by the jprobe handler. Also, this code was saving and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes. Depending upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window stored on the stack, without the argument save area. So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient. = Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused. Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is superfluous. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The setting of the CACHE_LINE_SIZE register in sparc64's pci initialisation code isn't quite adequate as the device may have incompatible requirements. The generic code tests for this, so switch sparc64 over to using it. Since sparc64 has different L1 cache line size and PCI cache line size, it would need to override the generic code like i386 and ia64 do. We know what the cache line size is at compile time though, so introduce a new optional constant PCI_CACHE_LINE_BYTES.
