      debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallback · 47cab6a7
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup
      detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do
      not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation.
      
      Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit:
      
       - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
      
       - Simplify the define
      
       - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures
         adding support for it.
      
      [ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ]

      mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() · 9e1b32ca
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()
      
      Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
      will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
      freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.
      
      Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
      virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
      page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
      RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
      entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
      we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.
      
      The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
      too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
      almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
      argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

      kmap_types: make most arches use generic header file · e4c9dd0f
      Randy Dunlap 提交于
      Convert most arches to use asm-generic/kmap_types.h.
      
      Move the KM_FENCE_ macro additions into asm-generic/kmap_types.h,
      controlled by __WITH_KM_FENCE from each arch's kmap_types.h file.
      
      Would be nice to be able to add custom KM_types per arch, but I don't yet
      see a nice, clean way to do that.
      
      Built on x86_64, i386, mips, sparc, alpha(tonyb), powerpc(tonyb), and
      68k(tonyb).
      
      Note: avr32 should be able to remove KM_PTE2 (since it's not used) and
      then just use the generic kmap_types.h file.  Get avr32 maintainer
      approval.

      module: trim exception table on init free. · ad6561df
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
      which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
      future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
      an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
      kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).
      
      Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
      patch is more general.
      
      This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
      use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
      addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.
      
      Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
      yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
      It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
      actually trimming them.

      The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order
      function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements
      unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h
      and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h
      and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple
      (e.g. nommu) architectures.

      asm-generic: introduce asm/bitsperlong.h · c31ae4bb
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      This provides a reliable way for asm-generic/types.h and other
      files to find out if it is running on a 32 or 64 bit platform.
      
      We cannot use CONFIG_64BIT for this in headers that are included
      from user space because CONFIG symbols are not available there.
      We also cannot do it inside of asm/types.h because some headers
      need the word size but cannot include types.h.
      
      The solution is to introduce a new header <asm/bitsperlong.h>
      that defines both __BITS_PER_LONG for user space and
      BITS_PER_LONG for usage in the kernel. The asm-generic
      version falls back to 32 bit unless the architecture overrides
      it, which I did for all 64 bit platforms.
