This CPU generates synchronous VFP exceptions in a non-standard way - the FPEXC.EX bit set but without the FPSCR.IXE bit being set like in the VFP subarchitecture 1 or just the FPEXC.DEX bit like in VFP subarchitecture 2. The main problem is that the faulty instruction (which needs to be emulated in software) will be restarted several times (normally until a context switch disables the VFP). This patch ensures that the VFP exception is treated as synchronous. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org>

Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian (byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support: - setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and user threads - big-endian page table walking - REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault processing as they are still little-endian format - Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to little-endian Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch adds a comment to the proc-v7.S file for the setting of the PRRR and NMRR registers. It also sets the PRRR[13:12] bits to 0 (corresponding to the reserved TEX[0]CB encoding 110) to be consistent with the documentation. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

The SWP instruction has been deprecated starting with the ARMv6 architecture. On ARMv7 processors with the multiprocessor extensions (like Cortex-A9), this instruction is disabled by default but it can be enabled by setting bit 10 in the System Control register. Note that setting this bit is safe even if the ARMv7 processor has the SWP instruction enabled by default. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

There are additional bits to set for the ARMv7 SMP extensions in the TTBR registers. The IRGN bits order is counter-intuitive but it allows software built for the ARMv7 base architecture to run on an implementation with the MP extensions.

ARMv7 SMP hardware can handle the TLB maintenance operations broadcasting in hardware so that the software can avoid the costly IPIs. This patch adds the necessary checks (the MMFR3 CPUID register) to avoid the broadcasting if already supported by the hardware.

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfrench/cifs-2.6: [CIFS] Avoid open on possible directories since Samba now rejects them
-
Steve French authored
Small change (mostly formatting) to limit lookup based open calls to file create only. After discussion yesteday on samba-technical about the posix lookup regression, and looking at a problem with cifs posix open to one particular Samba version, Jeff and JRA realized that Samba server's behavior changed in this area (posix open behavior on files vs. directories). To make this behavior consistent, JRA just made a fix to Samba server to alter how it handles open of directories (now returning the equivalent of EISDIR instead of success). Since we don't know at lookup time whether the inode is a directory or file (and thus whether posix open will succeed with most current Samba server), this change avoids the posix open code on lookup open (just issues posix open on creates). This gets the semantic benefits we want (atomicity, posix byte range locks, improved write semantics on newly created files) and file create still is fast, and we avoid the problem that Jeff noticed yesterday with "openat" (and some open directory calls) of non-cached directories to one version of Samba server, and will work with future Samba versions (which include the fix jra just pushed into Samba server). I confirmed this approach with jra yesterday and with Shirish today. Posix open is only called (at lookup time) for file create now. For opens (rather than creates), because we do not know if it is a file or directory yet, and current Samba no longer allows us to do posix open on dirs, we could end up wasting an open call on what turns out to be a dir. For file opens, we wait to call posix open till cifs_open. It could be added here (lookup) in the future but the performance tradeoff of the extra network request when EISDIR or EACCES is returned would have to be weighed against the 50% reduction in network traffic in the other paths.

Instead of queuing IPMB messages before channel initialization, just throw them away. Nobody will be listening for them at this point, anyway, and they will clog up the queue and nothing will be delivered if we queue them. Also set the current channel to the number of channels, as this value is used to tell if the channel information has been initialized.

It is possible for ide-cd to ignore ide_error()'s return value under some circumstances.

Since 2.6.26 we support UDMA66 on ATAPI devices requiring IVB quirk: commit 8588a2b7 ("ide: add SH-S202J to ivb_list[]") We also later added support for more such devices in: commit e97564f3 ("ide: More TSST drives with broken cable detection") and in: commit 3ced5c49 ("ide: add TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S202H to ivb_list[]") It turns out that such devices lack cable detection altogether (which in turn results in incorrect detection of 40-wire cables by our current cable detection strategy) so always handle them by trusting host-side cable detection only. v2: Model detection fixup from Martin.
