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>

This patch changes the REALVIEW_MPCORE configuration option to REALVIEW_EB_ARM11MP since this is only specific to RealView/EB. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch removes the TWD_BASE macro used to set up and configure the local timers on ARM11MPCore. The twd_base_addr and twd_size variables are defined in localtimer.c and set from the realview_eb_init function. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch sets the timer IRQ at run-time by moving the sys_timer structure and the timer_init function to the realview_eb.c file. This allows multiple RealView platforms to be compiled in the same kernel image. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch modifies the get_irqnr_preamble macro to work with multiple platforms at run-time by reading the address of the GIC controller from the gic_cpu_base_addr variable. This variable is defined in core.c and intialised in realview_eb.c (gic_init_irq). Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch adds the core-tile detection and only enables devices if the corresponding tile is present. It currently detects the ARM11MPCore via the core_tile_eb11mp() macro. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch moves the IRQ and DMA definitions from core.h into realview_eb.c since they are platform-specific. It adds a realview_eb11mp_fixup function to adjust the IRQ numbers if the ARM11MPCore tile is fitted. The realview_smc91x_device is also moved from core.c into realview_eb.c.

This patch moves the platform specific definitions from platform.h into the board-eb.h file. It drops the INT_* definitions as they are no longer used in irqs.h (moved to board-eb.h). It renames REALVIEW_* macros to REALVIEW_EB_* or REALVIEW_EB11MP_* to distinguish between standard EB and EB + the ARM11MPCore tile. The platform.h file contains common definitions to the RealView platforms and it is only directly included in board-*.h files. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch registers the local timers on ARM11MPCore as clock event devices. The clock device can be set up as periodic or oneshot. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch adds dummy local timers for each CPU so that the board clock device is used to broadcast events to the other CPUs. The patch also adds the declaration for the dummy_timer_setup function (the equivalent of local_timer_setup when CONFIG_LOCAL_TIMERS is not set). Due to the way clockevents work, the dummy timer on the first CPU has to be registered before the board timer. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch enables the use of the Advanced SIMD (NEON) extension on ARMv7. The NEON technology is a 64/128-bit hybrid SIMD architecture for accelerating the performance of multimedia and signal processing applications. The extension shares the registers with the VFP unit and enabling/disabling and saving/restoring follow the same rules. In addition, there are instructions that do not have the appropriate CP number encoded, the checks being made in the call_fpe function. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch adds the support for VFPv3 (the kernel currently supports VFPv2). The main difference is 32 double registers (compared to 16). Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This patch allows the VFP support code to run correctly on CPUs compatible with the common VFP subarchitecture specification (Appendix B in the ARM ARM v7-A and v7-R edition). It implements support for VFP subarchitecture 2 while being backwards compatible with subarchitecture 1. On VFP subarchitecture 1, the arithmetic exceptions are asynchronous (or imprecise as described in the old ARM ARM) unless the FPSCR.IXE bit is 1. The exceptional instructions can be read from FPINST and FPINST2 registers. With VFP subarchitecture 2, the arithmetic exceptions can also be synchronous and marked by the FPEXC.DEX bit (the FPEXC.EX bit is cleared). CPUs implementing the synchronous arithmetic exceptions don't have the FPINST and FPINST2 registers and accessing them would trigger and undefined exception. Note that FPEXC.EX bit has an additional meaning on subarchitecture 1 - if it isn't set, there is no additional information in FPINST and FPINST2 that needs to be saved at context switch or when lazy-loading the VFP state of a different thread. The patch also removes the clearing of the cumulative exception flags in FPSCR when additional exceptions were raised. It is up to the user application to clear these bits.

Before transmission of the last word in PIO RX_ONLY mode rx+tx mode is enabled: /* prevent last RX_ONLY read from triggering * more word i/o: switch to rx+tx */ if (c == 0 && tx == NULL) mcspi_write_cs_reg(spi, OMAP2_MCSPI_CHCONF0, l); But because c is decremented after the test, c will never be zero and rx+tx will not be enabled. This breaks RX_ONLY mode PIO transfers. Fix it by decrementing c in the beginning of the various I/O loops.

This reverts commit 81100eb8 for the release, to avoid the unnecessary warning noise that is only really relevant to wireless driver developers.

The shared page table code for hugetlb memory on x86 and x86_64 is causing a leak. When a user of hugepages exits using this code the system leaks some of the hugepages. ------------------------------------------------------- Part of /proc/meminfo just before database startup: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 5500 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB Just before shutdown: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 4475 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB After shutdown: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 4988 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB ---------------------------------------------------------- The problem occurs durring a fork, in copy_hugetlb_page_range(). It locates the dst_pte using huge_pte_alloc(). Since huge_pte_alloc() calls huge_pmd_share() it will share the pmd page if can, yet the main loop in copy_hugetlb_page_range() does a get_page() on every hugepage. This is a violation of the shared hugepmd pagetable protocol and creates additional referenced to the hugepages causing a leak when the unmap of the VMA occurs. We can skip the entire replication of the ptes when the hugepage pagetables are shared. The attached patch skips copying the ptes and the get_page() calls if the hugetlbpage pagetable is shared.

Michael Wu noticed in his lkml post at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119396182726091&w=2 that certain wireless drivers ended up having their name in module memory, which would then crash the kernel on module unload. The patch he proposed was a bit clumsy in that it increased the size of a lockdep entry significantly; the patch below tries another approach, it checks, on module teardown, if the name of a class is in module space and then zaps the class. This is very similar to what we already do with keys that are in module space.
