Akira Takeuchi c7f8d6f6b5 MN10300: Give correct size when reserving interrupt vector table

Akira Takeuchi 24646bd226 MN10300: Fix the preemption resume_kernel() routine
Fix the preemption resume_kernel() routine by inverting the test to see
whether interrupts are off (IM7 is all enabled, not all disabled).

Furthermore, interrupts should be disabled on entry to resume_kernel() so that
they're correctly set for jumping to restore_all() and doing the need
reschedule test.

Akira Takeuchi a8893fb3e6 MN10300: Discard low-priority Tx interrupts when closing an on-chip serial port
Discard low-prioriy Tx interrupts when closing an MN10300 on-chip serial port.

The MN10300 on-chip serial port uses three interrupts to manage its serial
ports:

 (1) A very high priority interrupt that drives virtual DMA for Rx.

 (2) A very high priority interrupt that drives virtual DMA for Tx.

 (3) A normal priority virtual interrupt that does the normal UART interrupt
     stuff and is shared between Rx and Tx.

mn10300_serial_stop_tx() only disables the high priority Tx interrupt.  It
doesn't also disable the normal priority one because it is shared with Rx.

However, the high priority interrupt may interrupt local_irq_disabled()
sections, and so may have queued up a low priority virtual interrupt whilst the
UART driver is asking for the Tx interrupt to be disabled.

The result of this can be an oops when we try to process the interrupt in
mn10300_serial_transmit_interrupt() as port->uart.info and port->uart.info->tty
may have gone away.

To deal with this, if either of those pointers is NULL, we make sure the
high-priority Tx interrupt is disabled and discard the interrupt.  The low
priority interrupt is disabled by the mn10300_serial_pic irq_chip table.

Certain X11 servers such as the SIS server will only work if PCI mmap is
implemented.  This patch implements PCI mmap but to be on the same side
so close to a release it only supports uncached mappings so performance
will not be optimal for some uses such as framebuffers.

John Keller ff740fb021 [IA64] SN: prevent IRQ retargetting in request_irq()
With the introduction of the generic affinity autoselector,
irq_select_affinity(), IRQs are now being retargetted,
using a default mask, via the request_irq() path.
This results in all IRQs targetted at CPU 0.

SN Altix assigns affinity in the SN PROM, and does not
expect that to be changed as part of request_irq().

Set the IRQ_AFFINITY_SET flag to prevent
request_irq() from resetting affinity.

Russell King baa745a337 [ARM] Fix alignment fault handling for ARMv6 and later CPUs
On ARMv6 and later CPUs, it is possible for userspace processes to
get stuck on a misaligned load or store due to the "ignore fault"
setting; unlike previous CPUs, retrying the instruction without
the 'A' bit set does not always cause the load to succeed.

We have no real option but to default to fixing up alignment faults
on these CPUs, and having the CPU fix up those misaligned accesses
which it can.

Lennert Buytenhek 794baba637 [ARM] 5340/1: fix stack placement after noexecstack changes
Commit 8ec53663d2 ("[ARM] Improve
non-executable support") added support for detecting non-executable
stack binaries.  One of the things it does is to make READ_IMPLIES_EXEC
be set in ->personality if we are running on a CPU that doesn't support
the XN ("Execute Never") page table bit or if we are running a binary
that needs an executable stack.

This exposed a latent bug in ARM's asm/processor.h due to which we'll
end up placing the stack at a very low address, where it will bump into
the heap on any application that uses significant amount of stack or
heap or both, causing many interesting crashes.

Fix this by testing the ADDR_LIMIT_32BIT bit in ->personality instead
of testing for equality against PER_LINUX_32BIT.

ARMv5+ by renaming it to __fls() and wrapping it into a C function.
However that didn't take into account the fact that __fls() already
already had different semantics in the kernel.

Let's move the __fls() code into fls() function directly, and redefine
__fls() with the appropriate semantics.  While at it, bring a generic
__fls() definition for pre ARMv5 too.

Joseph Myers 726c12f57d sparc64: Fix VIS emulation bugs
This patch fixes some bugs in VIS emulation that cause the GCC test
failure

FAIL: gcc.target/sparc/pdist-3.c execution test

for both 32-bit and 64-bit testing on hardware lacking these
instructions.  The emulation code for the pdist instruction uses
RS1(insn) for both source registers rs1 and rs2, which is obviously
wrong and leads to the instruction doing nothing (the observed
problem), and further inspection of the code shows that RS1 uses a
shift of 24 and RD a shift of 25, which clearly cannot both be right;
examining SPARC documentation indicates the correct shift for RS1 is
14.

This patch fixes the bug if single-stepping over the affected
instruction in the debugger, but not if the testcase is run
standalone.  For that, Wind River has another patch I hope they will
send as a followup to this patch submission.

Hi Alan,

Looking at the kernel driver code for oprofile it can return the "i386/p6" for
the cpu_type. However, looking at the user-space oprofile code there isn't the
matching entry in libop/op_cpu_type.c or the events/unit_mask files in
events/i386 directory.

The Intel AP-485 says this is a "Intel Pentium M processor model D". Seems like
the oprofile kernel driver should be identifying the processor as "i386/p6_mobile"

The driver identification code doesn't look quite right in nmi_init.c

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=blob;f=arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c;h=022cd41ea9b4106e5884277096e80e9088a7c7a9;hb=HEAD

has:

409         case 10 ... 13:
410                 *cpu_type = "i386/p6";
411                 break;

Referring to the Intel AP-485:
case 10 and 11 should produce "i386/piii"
case 13 should produce "i386/p6_mobile"

I didn't see anything for case 12.

Something like the attached patch. I don't have a celeron machine to verify that
changes in this area of the kernel fix thing.

Anton Vorontsov dafdb61313 powerpc/83xx: Fix MCU support merge issue in mpc8349emitx.dts
Just found the merge issue in 442746989d
("powerpc/83xx: Add support for MCU microcontroller in .dts files"):
the commit adds the MCU controller node into the DMA node, which is
wrong because the MCU sits on the I2C bus. Fix this by moving the MCU
node into the I2C controller node.

The original patch[1] was OK though. ;-)

Eric Dumazet 9ea84ad77d oprofile: fix CPU unplug panic in ppro_stop()
If oprofile statically compiled in kernel, a cpu unplug triggers
a panic in ppro_stop(), because a NULL pointer is dereferenced.
