      ARM: 7749/1: spinlock: retry trylock operation if strex fails on free lock · 15e7e5c1
      Will Deacon authored
      
      
      An exclusive store instruction may fail for reasons other than lock
      contention (e.g. a cache eviction during the critical section) so, in
      line with other architectures using similar exclusive instructions
      (alpha, mips, powerpc), retry the trylock operation if the lock appears
      to be free but the strex reported failure.

      ARM: 7748/1: oabi: handle faults when loading swi instruction from userspace · 1aa2b3b7
      Will Deacon authored
      
      
      Running an OABI_COMPAT kernel on an SMP platform can lead to fun and
      games with page aging.
      
      If one CPU issues a swi instruction immediately before another CPU
      decides to mkold the page containing the swi instruction, then we will
      fault attempting to load the instruction during the vector_swi handler
      in order to retrieve its immediate field. Since this fault is not
      currently dealt with by our exception tables, this results in a panic:
      
        Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 4020841c
        pgd = c490c000
        [4020841c] *pgd=84451831, *pte=bf05859d, *ppte=00000000
        Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
        Modules linked in: hid_sony(O)
        CPU: 1    Tainted: G        W  O  (3.4.0-perf-gf496dca-01162-gcbcc62b #1)
        PC is at vector_swi+0x28/0x88
        LR is at 0x40208420
      
      This patch wraps all of the swi instruction loads with the USER macro
      and provides a shared exception table entry which simply rewinds the
      saved user PC and returns from the system call (without setting tbl, so
      there's no worries with tracing or syscall restarting). Returning to
      userspace will re-enter the page fault handler, from where we will
      probably send SIGSEGV to the current task.

      ARM: 7746/1: mm: lazy cache flushing on non-mapped pages · 81f28946
      Ming Lei authored
      
      
      Currently flush_dcache_page() thinks pages as non-mapped if
      mapping_mapped(mapping) return false. This approach is very
      coase:
      	- mmap on part of file may cause all pages backed on
      	the file being thought as mmaped
      
      	- file-backed pages aren't mapped into user space actually
      	if the memory mmaped on the file isn't accessed
      
      This patch uses page_mapped() to decide if the page has been
      mapped.
      
      From the attached test code, I find there is much performance
      improvement(>25%) when accessing page caches via read under this
      situations, so memcpy benefits a lot from not flushing cache
      under this situation.

      It is common for one sg to include many pages, so mark all these

      value for the cache to enable this functionality.

      - remove section 1 altogether and note that in comments
      - simplify section selection caused by section 1 removal

      ARM: 7722/1: zImage: Convert 32bits memory size and address from ATAG to 64bits DTB · faefd550
      Gregory CLEMENT authored
      
      
      When CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB is selected, if the bootloader provides
      an ATAG_MEM it replaces the memory size and the memory address in the
      memory node of the device tree. In the case of a system which can
      handle more than 4GB, the memory node cell size is 4: each data
      (memory size and memory address) are 64 bits and then use 2 cells.
      
      The current code in atags_to_fdt.c made the assumption of a cell size
      of 2 (one cell for the memory size and one cell for the memory
      address), this leads to an improper write of the data and ends with a
      boot hang.
      
      This patch writes the memory size and the memory address on the memory
      node in the device tree depending of the size of the memory node (32
      bits or 64 bits).
      
      It has been tested in the 2 cases:
      - with a dtb using skeleton.dtsi
      - and with a dtb using skeleton64.dtsi

      ARM: 7669/1: keep __my_cpu_offset consistent with generic one · 9394c1c6
      Ming Lei authored
      Commit 14318efb
      
      (ARM: 7587/1: implement optimized percpu variable access)
      introduces arm's __my_cpu_offset to optimize percpu vaiable access,
      which really works well on hackbench, but will cause __my_cpu_offset
      to return garbage value before it is initialized in cpu_init() called
      by setup_arch, so accessing percpu variable before setup_arch may cause
      kernel hang. But generic __my_cpu_offset always returns zero before
      percpu area is brought up, and won't hang kernel.
      
      So the patch tries to clear __my_cpu_offset on boot CPU early
      to avoid boot hang.
      
      At least now percpu variable is accessed by lockdep before
      setup_arch(), and enabling CONFIG_LOCK_STAT or CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP
      can trigger kernel hang.
