Tim Starling reported that crashdump will panic with kernel compiled with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP due to null pointer deference in machine_kexec_32.c: machine_kexec(), when deferencing kexec_image. Refering to: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265 This patch fixes the BUG via replacing global variable reference: kexec_image in machine_kexec() with local variable reference: image, which is more appropriate, and will not be null. Same BUG is in machine_kexec_64.c too, so fixed too in the same way.

With the introduction of the .brk section, special care must be taken that no unused page table entries remain if _brk_end and _end are separated by a 2M page boundary. cleanup_highmap() runs very early and hence cannot take care of that, hence potential entries needing to be removed past _brk_end must be cleared once the brk allocator has done its job.

Commit 7ad728f9 (cpumask: x86: convert cpu_sibling_map/cpu_core_map to cpumask_var_t) changed the output of /proc/cpuinfo for siblings: Example on an AMD Phenom: physical id : 0 siblings : 1 core id : 3 cpu cores : 4 Before that commit it was: physical id : 0 siblings : 4 core id : 3 cpu cores : 4 Instead of cpu_core_mask it now uses cpu_sibling_mask to count siblings.

由 David Gibson 提交于
The powerpc kernel always requires an Open Firmware like device tree to supply device information. On systems without OF, this comes from a flattened device tree blob. This blob is usually generated by dtc, a tool which compiles a text description of the device tree into the flattened format used by the kernel. Sometimes, the bootwrapper makes small changes to the pre-compiled device tree blob (e.g. filling in the size of RAM). To do this it uses the libfdt library. Because these are only used on powerpc, the code for both these tools is included under arch/powerpc/boot (these were imported and are periodically updated from the upstream dtc tree). However, the microblaze architecture, currently being prepared for merging to mainline also uses dtc to produce device tree blobs. A few other archs have also mentioned some interest in using dtc. Therefore, this patch moves dtc and libfdt from arch/powerpc into scripts, where it can be used by any architecture. The vast bulk of this patch is a literal move, the rest is adjusting the various Makefiles to use dtc and libfdt correctly from their new locations.

This fixes the problem introduced by commit 3bfacef4 (get rid of special-casing the /sbin/loader on alpha): osf/1 ecoff binary segfaults when binfmt_aout built as module. That happens because aout binary handler gets on the top of the binfmt list due to late registration, and kernel attempts to execute the binary without preparatory work that must be done by binfmt_loader. Fixed by changing the registration order of the default binfmt handlers using list_add_tail() and introducing insert_binfmt() function which places new handler on the top of the binfmt list. This might be generally useful for installing arch-specific frontends for default handlers or just for overriding them.

According to the gettimeofday(2) manual: If either tv or tz is NULL, the corresponding structure is not set or returned. Since it is legal to give NULL as the tv argument, the code should make sure tv is not NULL before trying to dereference it. This issue manifests itself on x86_64 when vdso=0 is not on the kernel command-line and libc uses the vDSO for gettimeofday() (e.g. glibc >= 2.7). A simple reproducer: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> int main(void) { struct timezone tz; gettimeofday(NULL, &tz); return 0; } See http://bugs.debian.org/466491 for more details.

On ppc64 we implemented elf_read_implies_exec() for 32-bit binaries because old toolchains had bugs where they didn't mark program segments executable that needed to be. For some reason we didn't do this on ppc32 builds. This hadn't been an issue until commit 8d30c14c ("powerpc/mm: Rework I$/D$ coherency (v3)"), which had as a side effect that we are now enforcing execute permissions to some extent on 32-bit 4xx and Book E processors. This fixes it by defining elf_read_implies_exec on 32-bit to turn on the read-implies-exec behaviour on programs that are sufficiently old that they don't have a PT_GNU_STACK program header.

Update NAND partitioning for the dm6446 evm, unmasking the hidden data at the beginning and letting the kernel be updated from Linux. - This is boot-compatible with TI's software (U-Boot 1.20 and both the 2.6.10 and 2.6.18 kernels), in terms of startup and loading kernels from flash. - In the same way, it's also boot-compatible with mainline U-Boot, which stores U-Boot params in block 0 not block 16. - It's not quite compatible with systems that previously used NAND partitions to hold (filesystem) data. The compatibilities are a bit different based on which kernel was used previously + Users of TI/MV kernels no longer see mtd2 "params" (mainline u-boot env is in a different place) * Filesystem is now mtd2 ... vs mtd3 + Users of GIT kernels now see mtd0 and mtd1 partitions * Filesystem partition starts 640 KBytes earlier * Filesystem is now mtd2 ... vs mtd0 * Linux now *uses* the flash-resident BBT * Removes annoying slowdown/hiccup during boot * Potentially ~64KB less space available with TI/MV kernels If you *used* NAND partitions from Linux, there is no solution that's fully compatible with all previous kernels in those respects ... ergo this "best compromise".
