Russell King 4ed89f2228 ARM: convert printk(KERN_* to pr_*
Convert many (but not all) printk(KERN_* to pr_* to simplify the code.
We take the opportunity to join some printk lines together so we don't
split the message across several lines, and we also add a few levels
to some messages which were previously missing them.

Johannes Weiner 759496ba64 arch: mm: pass userspace fault flag to generic fault handler
Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.

Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

Johannes Weiner 871341023c arch: mm: do not invoke OOM killer on kernel fault OOM
Kernel faults are expected to handle OOM conditions gracefully (gup,
uaccess etc.), so they should never invoke the OOM killer.  Reserve this
for faults triggered in user context when it is the only option.

Most architectures already do this, fix up the remaining few.

Steven Capper 809e660f43 ARM: 7775/1: mm: Remove do_sect_fault from LPAE code
For LPAE, do_sect_fault used to be invoked as the second level access
flag handler. When transparent huge pages were introduced for LPAE,
do_page_fault was used instead.

Unfortunately, do_sect_fault remains defined but not used for LPAE code
resulting in a compile warning.

This patch surrounds do_sect_fault with #ifndef CONFIG_ARM_LPAE to fix
this warning.

Shaohua Li 45cac65b0f readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection
.fault now can retry.  The retry can break state machine of .fault.  In
filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased.  In the second
try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased.  And
these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.

Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once.  In the second try, skip
ra->mmap_miss decreasing.  The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other
archs is obvious, but who knows :)

This patch removes support for ARMv3 CPUs, which haven't worked properly
for quite some time (see the FIXME comment in arch/arm/mm/fault.c).  The
only V3 parts left is the cache model for ARMv3, which is needed for some
odd reason by ARM740T CPUs, and being able to build with -march=armv3,
which is required for the RiscPC platform due to its bus structure.

Kautuk Consul dff2aa7af8 ARM: 7368/1: fault.c: correct how the tsk->[maj|min]_flt gets incremented
commit 8878a539ff was done by me
to make the page fault handler retryable as well as interruptible.

Due to this commit, there is a mistake in the way in which
tsk->[maj|min]_flt counter gets incremented for VM_FAULT_ERROR:
If VM_FAULT_ERROR is returned in the fault flags by handle_mm_fault,
then either maj_flt or min_flt will get incremented. This is wrong
as in the case of a VM_FAULT_ERROR we need to be skip ahead to the
error handling code in do_page_fault.

Added a check after the call to __do_page_fault() to check for
(fault & VM_FAULT_ERROR).

Commit d065bd810b
(mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer) and
commit 37b23e0525
(x86,mm: make pagefault killable)

The above commits introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler
for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable.

These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial
during OOM killer invocation.

Port these changes to ARM.

Peter Zijlstra a8b0ca17b8 perf: Remove the nmi parameter from the swevent and overflow interface
The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.

For the various event classes:

  - hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
    the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
  - tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
  - software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
    perform wakeups, and hence need 0.

As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).

The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

Imre Deak 1d2127123d ARM: 5742/1: ARM: add debug check for invalid kernel page faults
According to the following in arch/arm/mm/fault.c page faults from
kernel mode are invalid if mmap_sem is already held and there is
no exception handler defined for the faulting instruction:

/*
 * As per x86, we may deadlock here.  However, since the kernel only
 * validly references user space from well defined areas of the code,
 * we can bug out early if this is from code which shouldn't.
 */
if (!down_read_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem)) {
	if (!user_mode(regs) && !search_exception_tables(regs->ARM_pc))
		goto no_context;

Since mmap_sem can be held at arbitrary times by another thread this
also means that any page faults from kernel mode are invalid if no
exception handler is defined for them, regardless whether mmap_sem is
held at the time of fault.

To easier detect code that can trigger the above error, add a check
also for the case where mmap_sem is acquired. As this has an overhead
make it a VM debug check.

Kirill A. Shutemov d25ef8b86e ARM: 5728/1: Proper prefetch abort handling on ARMv6 and ARMv7
Currently, on ARMv6 and ARMv7, if an application tries to execute
code (or garbage) on non-executable page it hangs. It caused by
incorrect prefetch abort handling. Now every prefetch abort
processes as a translation fault.

To fix this we have to analyze instruction fault status register
to figure out reason why we've got the abort and process it
accordingly.

To make IFSR different from DFSR we set bit 31 which is reserved in
both IFSR and DFSR.

This patch also tries to protect from future hangs on unexpected
exceptions. An application will be killed if unexpected exception
type was received.

Kirill A. Shutemov 4fb2847437 ARM: 5727/1: Pass IFSR register to do_PrefetchAbort()
Instruction fault status register, IFSR, was introduced on ARMv6 to
provide status information about the last insturction fault. It
needed for proper prefetch abort handling.

Now we have three prefetch abort model:

  * legacy - for CPUs before ARMv6. They doesn't provide neither
    IFSR nor IFAR. We simulate IFSR with section translation fault
    status for them to generalize code;
  * ARMv6 - provides IFSR, but not IFAR;
  * ARMv7 - provides both IFSR and IFAR.

Russell King df297bf6c7 ARM: Add support for checking access permissions on prefetch aborts
ARMv6 introduces non-executable mappings, which can cause prefetch aborts
when an attempt is made to execute from such a mapping.  Currently, this
causes us to loop in the page fault handler since we don't correctly
check for proper permissions.

Fix this by checking that VMAs have VM_EXEC set for prefetch aborts.

Russell King d374bf14a5 ARM: Separate out access error checking
Since we get notified separately about prefetch aborts, which may be
permission faults, we need to check for appropriate access permissions
when handling a fault.  This patch prepares us for doing this by
separating out the access error checking.

Add the ARM implementation of highpte, which allows PTE tables to be

Linus Torvalds d06063cc22 Move FAULT_FLAG_xyz into handle_mm_fault() callers
This allows the callers to now pass down the full set of FAULT_FLAG_xyz
flags to handle_mm_fault().  All callers have been (mechanically)
converted to the new calling convention, there's almost certainly room
for architectures to clean up their code and then add FAULT_FLAG_RETRY
when that support is added.

Nicolas Pitre 252d4c276d [ARM] remove bogus #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM in show_pte()
The restriction on !CONFIG_HIGHMEM is unneeded since page tables are
currently never allocated with highmem pages, and actually disable PTE
dump whenever highmem is configured.  Let's have a dynamic test to better
describe the current limitation instead.
