According to the ARM11MPCore Erratum 351422 (r0p0), under extremely rare conditions, in an MPCore node consisting of at least 3 CPUs, two CPUs trying to perform a STREX to data on the same shared cache line can enter a livelock situation. This patch adds variable spinning time to the locking routines. Signed-off-by: Harry Fearnhamm <Harry.Fearnhamm@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Errata 411920 - Invalidation of the Instruction Cache operation can fail. This Errata is present in 1136, 1156 and 1176. It does not affect the MPCore. This patch implements the ARM Ltd recommended workaround. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch is a workaround for the 364296 ARM1136 r0pX errata (possible cache data corruption with hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in the auxiliary control register and the FI bit in the control register, thus disabling hit-under-miss without putting the processor into full low interrupt latency mode.

When running Linux in non-secure mode (on ARM1176 for example), depending on the CP15 secure configuration register, the CPSR.F bit (6) might only be modified from the secure mode. However, the valid_user_regs() function checks for this bit being cleared. With commit a6c61e9d, a SIGSEGV is forced in handle_signal() if the user registers are not considered valid. The patch also ensures that the CPSR.A bit is cleared and the USR mode is set if the CPU does not support the 26bit user mode. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

The background operations of the L2x0 cache controllers are aborted if another operation is issued on the same or different core. This patch protects the maintenance operation issuing/polling with a spinlock. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Starting with ARMv7-A, conditional execution of undefined instructions can trigger an exception even if the condition check fails. This patch modifies the NWFPE support to check the condition before emulating the instruction. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

The patch below adds ARM ptrace functions to get the process load address. This is required for useful userspace debugging on mmuless systems. These values are obtained by reading magic offsets with PTRACE_PEEKUSR, as on other nommu targets. I picked arbitrary large values for the offsets. Signed-off-by: Paul Brook <paul@codesourcery.com>

The FSR bit 11 is not set by a memory write causing a data abort while in Jazelle state, making the copy-on-write mechanism unusable. This workaround marks repetitive Jazelle data aborts on the same address as write aborts. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Currently, Linux doesn't generate correct page tables for ARMv6 and later cores if the cache policy is different from the default one (it may lead to strongly ordered or shared device mappings). This patch disallows cache policies other than writeback and the CPU_[ID]CACHE_DISABLE options only affect the CP15 system control register rather than the page tables.

Starting with ARMv7, the cacheability attributes of the page table walks have to be the same as the attributes of the page table mappings, therefore inner cacheable, even if the presence of this feature in hardware is implementation defined. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

I-cache invalidation in __new_context (the ASID-tagged VIVT I-cache case) also flushes the branch target cache and therefore the explicit BTAC/BTB flushing is not required. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
