__my_cpu_offset is non-volatile, since we want its value to be cached
when we access several per-cpu variables in a row with preemption
disabled. This means that we rely on preempt_{en,dis}able to hazard
with the operation via the barrier() macro, so that we can't end up
migrating CPUs without reloading the per-cpu offset.
Unfortunately, GCC doesn't treat a "memory" clobber on a non-volatile
asm block as a side-effect, and will happily re-order it before other
memory clobbers (including those in prempt_disable()) and cache the
value. This has been observed to break the cmpxchg logic in the slub
allocator, leading to livelock in kmem_cache_alloc in mainline kernels.
This patch adds a dummy memory input operand to __my_cpu_offset,
forcing it to be ordered with respect to the barrier() macro.

The previous mask values for the legacy ARM CPU IDs were conflicting
with the CPU ID assignments for late-generation CPUs (like the
Qualcomm MSM/QSD or Broadcom Brahma-15 processors). This change
corrects the legacy ARM CPU ID value so that the jump table can
fall-through to the appropriate cache maintenance / MMU functions.

In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change into binutils
labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on deprecated registers", apparently as
part of ARMv8 support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit the message
"Warning: This coprocessor register access is deprecated in ARMv8" when
using certain mcr/mrc instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately,
the message that is actually emitted appears to be '(null)', which is
less helpful in comparison.
Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on every single kernel
build with a new gas, because arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some
other files in that directory are built with -march=all since kernel
commit 80cec14a8 "[ARM] Add -march=all to assembly file build in
arch/arm/boot/compressed" back in v2.6.28.
This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and instead marks the head.S
file to be built for armv7-a, which fortunately lets us build all
instructions in that file without warnings even on the broken binutils.
Without this patch, building anything results in:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S: Assembler messages:

The cpu_topology symbol is required by any driver using the topology

The semihosting support cannot be modelled into a senduart macro as
it requires memory space for argument passing. So the

If enabled, CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO scans on PC-like hardware for
various super-io chips by accessing i/o ports in a range which will
crash any parisc hardware at once.
In addition, parisc has it's own incompatible superio chip
(CONFIG_SUPERIO), so if we disable PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO completely for
parisc we can avoid that people by accident enable the parport_pc

parisc/PCI: lba: convert to pci_create_root_bus() for correct root bus
resources
Supply root bus resources to pci_create_root_bus() so they're correct
immediately. This fixes the problem of "early" and "header" quirks seeing
incorrect root bus resources.
added tests for elmmio_space.start while it should use
elmmio_space.flags. This for example led to incorrect resource
assignments and a non-working stifb framebuffer on most parisc machines.

'path.bc[i]' can be asigned by PCI_SLOT() which can '> 10', so sizeof(6
* "%u:" + "%u" + '\0') may be 21.
Since 'name' length is 20, it may be memory overflow.
And 'path.bc[i]' is 'unsigned char' for printing, we can be sure the
max length of 'name' must be less than 28.
So simplify thinking, we can use 28 instead of 20 directly, and do not
think of whether 'patchc.bc[i]' can '> 100'.

They cannot be emulated in qemu when using in-kernel interrupt

!CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU configuration:
CC arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c: In function ‘rtas_cpu_state_change_mask’:
arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.c:843:4: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cpu_down’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel] Error 2
The build fails because cpu_down() is defined only under CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.
Looking further, the mobility code in pseries is one of the call-sites which
uses rtas_ibm_suspend_me(), which in turn calls rtas_cpu_state_change_mask().
And the mobility code is unconditionally compiled-in (it does not fall under
any Kconfig option). And commit 120496ac (powerpc: Bring all threads online
prior to migration/hibernation) which introduced this build regression is
critical for the proper functioning of the migration code. So it appears
that the only solution to this problem is to enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU if
SMP is enabled on PPC_PSERIES platforms. So make that change in the Kconfig.

This adds the remaining two hypercalls defined by PAPR for manipulating
the XICS interrupt controller, H_IPOLL and H_XIRR_X. H_IPOLL returns
information about the priority and pending interrupts for a virtual
cpu, without changing any state. H_XIRR_X is like H_XIRR in that it
reads and acknowledges the highest-priority pending interrupt, but it
also returns the timestamp (timebase register value) from when the
interrupt was first received by the hypervisor. Currently we just
return the current time, since we don't do any software queueing of
virtual interrupts inside the XICS emulation code.
These hcalls are not currently used by Linux guests, but may be in
future.

Commit a9c4e541ea9b22944da356f2a9258b4eddcc953b
"powerpc/kprobe: Complete kprobe and migrate exception frame"
introduced a regression:
While returning from exception handling in case of PREEMPT enabled,
_TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit is checked in TI_FLAGS (thread_info flag) of current
task. Only if this bit is set, it should continue with the process of
calling preempt_schedule_irq() to schedule highest priority task if
available.
Current code assumes that r8 contains TI_FLAGS and check this for
_TIF_NEED_RESCHED, but as r8 is modified in the code which executes before
this check, r8 no longer contains the expected TI_FLAGS information.
As a result check for comparison with _TIF_NEED_RESCHED was failing even if
NEED_RESCHED bit is set in the current thread_info flag. Due to this,
preempt_schedule_irq() and in turn scheduler was not getting called even if
highest priority task is ready for execution.
So, store temporary results in r0 instead of r8 to prevent r8 from getting
modified as subsequent code is dependent on its value.

If a hash bucket gets full, we "evict" a more/less random entry from it.
When we do that we don't invalidate the TLB (hpte_remove) because we assume
the old translation is still technically "valid". This implies that when
we are invalidating or updating pte, even if HPTE entry is not valid
we should do a tlb invalidate.

transactions
When in an active transaction that takes a signal, we need to be careful with
the stack. It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin.
The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that
returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed
transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in
suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter
and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be
valid anymore.
To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use
the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated
state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be
written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted
becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the
signal will be rolled back anyway.
For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the
normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

If we are emulating an instruction inside an active user transaction that
touches memory, the kernel can't emulate it as it operates in transactional
suspend context. We need to abort these transactions and send them back to
userspace for the hardware to rollback.
We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the
kernel will operate in the same suspend context.
This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction
emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an
active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to
userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the
failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the
persistent error to the user.

PAPR carves out 0xff-0xe0 for hypervisor use of transactional memory software
abort cause codes. Unfortunately we don't respect this currently.
Below fixes this to move our cause codes to below this region.

Pull xfs extended attribute fixes for CRCs from Ben Myers:
"Here are several fixes that are relevant on CRC enabled XFS
filesystems. They are followed by a rework of the remote attribute
code so that each block of the attribute contains a header with a CRC.
Previously there was a CRC header per extent in the remote attribute
code, but this was untenable because it was not possible to know how
many extents would be allocated for the attribute until after the
allocation has completed, due to the fragmentation of free space.
This became complicated because the size of the headers needs to be
added to the length of the payload to get the overall length required
for the allocation. With a header per block, things are less
complicated at the cost of a little space.
I would have preferred to defer this and the rest of the CRC queue to
3.11 to mitigate risk for existing non-crc users in 3.10. Doing so
would require setting a feature bit for the on-disk changes, and so I
have been pressured into sending this pull request by Eric Sandeen and
David Chinner from Red Hat. I'll send another pull request or two
with the rest of the CRC queue next week.
- Remove assert on count of remote attribute CRC headers
- Fix the number of blocks read in for remote attributes
- Zero remote attribute tails properly
- Fix mapping of remote attribute buffers to have correct length
- initialize temp leaf properly in xfs_attr3_leaf_unbalance, and
xfs_attr3_leaf_compact
- Rework remote atttributes to have a header per block"

Reiserfs is currently able to be deadlocked by having two NFS clients
where one has removed and recreated a file and another is accessing the
file with an open file handle.
If one client deletes and recreates a file with timing such that the
recreated file obtains the same [dirid, objectid] pair as the original
file while another client accesses the file via file handle, the create
and lookup can race and deadlock if the lookup manages to create the
in-memory inode first.
The create thread, in insert_inode_locked4, will hold the write lock
while waiting on the other inode to be unlocked. The lookup thread,
anywhere in the iget path, will release and reacquire the write lock while
it schedules. If it needs to reacquire the lock while the create thread
has it, it will never be able to make forward progress because it needs
to reacquire the lock before ultimately unlocking the inode.
This patch drops the write lock across the insert_inode_locked4 call so
that the ordering of inode_wait -> write lock is retained. Since this
would have been the case before the BKL push-down, this is safe.

reiserfs_chown_xattrs() takes the iattr struct passed into ->setattr
and uses it to iterate over all the attrs associated with a file to change
ownership of xattrs (and transfer quota associated with the xattr files).
When the setuid bit is cleared during chown, ATTR_MODE and iattr->ia_mode
are passed to all the xattrs as well. This means that the xattr directory
will have S_IFREG added to its mode bits.
This has been prevented in practice by a missing IS_PRIVATE check
in reiserfs_acl_chmod, which caused a double-lock to occur while holding
the write lock. Since the file system was completely locked up, the
writeout of the corrupted mode never happened.
This patch temporarily clears everything but ATTR_UID|ATTR_GID for the
calls to reiserfs_setattr and adds the missing IS_PRIVATE check.

After sleeping for filldir(), we check to see if the file system has
changed and research. The next_pos pointer is updated but its value
isn't pushed into the key used for the search itself. As a result,
the search returns the same item that the last cycle of the loop did
and filldir() is called multiple times with the same data.
The end result is that the buffer can contain the same name multiple
times. This can be returned to userspace or used internally in the
xattr code where it can manifest with the following warning:
jdm-20004 reiserfs_delete_xattrs: Couldn't delete all xattrs (-2)
reiserfs_for_each_xattr uses reiserfs_readdir_dentry to iterate over
the xattr names and ends up trying to unlink the same name twice. The
second attempt fails with -ENOENT and the error is returned. At some
point I'll need to add support into reiserfsck to remove the orphaned
directories left behind when this occurs.
The fix is to push the value into the key before researching.
