      x86, 64-bit: Clean up user address masking · 9063c61f
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see
commit 7f818906: "x86: don't use
'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and
end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy
about virtual address checking.

So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual
addresses:

 - All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address
   space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed
   integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when
   applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space.

 - /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more
   obvious when it transforms a file offset into a
   (kernel-half) virtual address.

 - Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to
   be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX.

This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also
uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it
would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the
string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid
strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this.

So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we
already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'.  Namely by just
checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the
rest.  That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be
mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we
didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

      x86: don't use 'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast() · 7f818906
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      It's really not right to use 'access_ok()', since that is meant for the
normal "get_user()" and "copy_from/to_user()" accesses, which are done
through the TLB, rather than through the page tables.

Why? access_ok() does both too few, and too many checks.  Too many,
because it is meant for regular kernel accesses that will not honor the
'user' bit in the page tables, and because it honors the USER_DS vs
KERNEL_DS distinction that we shouldn't care about in GUP.  And too few,
because it doesn't do the 'canonical' check on the address on x86-64,
since the TLB will do that for us.

So instead of using a function that isn't meant for this, and does
something else and much more complicated, just do the real rules: we
don't want the range to overflow, and on x86-64, we want it to be a
canonical low address (on 32-bit, all addresses are canonical).

      perf_counter: powerpc: Add processor back-end for MPC7450 family · 7325927e
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This adds support for the performance monitor hardware on the
MPC7450 family of processors (7450, 7451, 7455, 7447/7457, 7447A,
7448), used in the later Apple G4 powermacs/powerbooks and other
machines.  These machines have 6 hardware counters with a unique
set of events which can be counted on each counter, with some
events being available on multiple counters.

Raw event codes for these processors are (PMC << 8) + PMCSEL.
If PMC is non-zero then the event is that selected by the given
PMCSEL value for that PMC (hardware counter).  If PMC is zero
then the event selected is one of the low-numbered ones that are
common to several PMCs.  In this case PMCSEL must be <= 22 and
the event is what that PMCSEL value would select on PMC1 (but
it may be placed any other PMC that has the same event for that
PMCSEL value).

For events that count cycles or occurrences that exceed a threshold,
the threshold requested can be specified in the 0x3f000 bits of the
raw event codes.  If the event uses the threshold multiplier bit
and that bit should be set, that is indicated with the 0x40000 bit
of the raw event code.

This fills in some of the generic cache events.  Unfortunately there
are quite a few blank spaces in the table, partly because these
processors tend to count cache hits rather than cache accesses.

      perf_counter: powerpc: Make powerpc perf_counter code safe for 32-bit kernels · 98fb1807
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      This abstracts a few things in arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c
that are specific to 64-bit kernels, and provides definitions for
32-bit kernels.  In particular,

* Only 64-bit has MMCRA and the bits in it that give information
  about a PMU interrupt (sampled PR, HV, slot number etc.)
* Only 64-bit has the lppaca and the lppaca->pmcregs_in_use field
* Use of SDAR is confined to 64-bit for now
* Only 64-bit has soft/lazy interrupt disable and therefore
  pseudo-NMIs (interrupts that occur while interrupts are soft-disabled)
* Only 64-bit has PMC7 and PMC8
* Only 64-bit has the MSR_HV bit.

This also fixes the types used in a couple of places, where we were
using long types for things that need to be 64-bit.

      perf_counter: powerpc: Change how processor-specific back-ends get selected · 079b3c56
      由 Paul Mackerras 提交于 
      At present, the powerpc generic (processor-independent) perf_counter
code has list of processor back-end modules, and at initialization,
it looks at the PVR (processor version register) and has a switch
statement to select a suitable processor-specific back-end.

This is going to become inconvenient as we add more processor-specific
back-ends, so this inverts the order: now each back-end checks whether
it applies to the current processor, and registers itself if so.
Furthermore, instead of looking at the PVR, back-ends now check the
cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type string and match on that.

Lastly, each back-end now specifies a name for itself so the core can
print a nice message when a back-end registers itself.

This doesn't provide any support for unregistering back-ends, but that
wouldn't be hard to do and would allow back-ends to be modules.
