2014-06-04arc: call find_vma with the mmap_sem heldDavidlohr Bueso
Performing vma lookups without taking the mm->mmap_sem is asking for trouble. While doing the search, the vma in question can be modified or even removed before returning to the caller. Take the lock (shared) in order to avoid races while iterating through the vmacache and/or rbtree.

2014-04-07Kconfig: rename HAS_IOPORT to HAS_IOPORT_MAPUwe Kleine-König
If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this. Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP. The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT.

2014-01-16ARC: [cmdline] uboot cmdline handling reworkVineet Gupta
* Moved cmdline copy from asm to "C" - allows for more robust checking of pointer validity etc. * Remove the Kconfig option to do so, base it on a runtime value passed by u-boot Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Checkin: 93ea02bb8435 arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.h ... unfortunately left some Kbuild files out of order, which caused unnecessary merge conflicts, in particular with checkin: e3fec2f74f7f lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for asm-generic/hash.h Put them back in order to make the upcoming merges cleaner.

2014-01-12arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.hPeter Zijlstra
We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of asm-generic/barrier.h. Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier definitions and fills out the rest with defaults. There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to their unconventional nop() implementation.

2013-12-23ARC: [SMP] IPI ACK interface doesn't need "self" cpu-idVineet Gupta
The interface is confusing, it feels like we are getting "sender" info, whereas it is the "receiver", which can very well be retrived by smp_processor_id(), if need be. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-12-23ARC: [SMP] cpumask not needed in IPI send pathVineet Gupta
The current IPI sending callstack needlessly involves cpumask. arch_send_call_function_single_ipi(cpu) / smp_send_reschedule(cpu) ipi_send_msg(cpumask_of(cpu)) --> [cpu to cpumask] plat_smp_ops.ipi_send(callmap) for_each_cpu(callmap) --> [cpuask to cpu] do_plat_specific_ipi_PER_CPU Given that current backends are not capable of 1:N IPIs, lets simplify the interface for now, by keeping "a" cpu all along.

2013-12-19ARC: Allow conditional multiple inclusion of uapi/asm/unistd.hVineet Gupta
Commit 97bc386fc12d "ARC: Add guard macro to uapi/asm/unistd.h" inhibited multiple inclusion of ARCH unistd.h. This however hosed the system since Generic syscall table generator relies on it being included twice, and in lack-of an empty table was emitted by C preprocessor. Fix that by allowing one exception to rule for the special case (just like Xtensa) Suggested-by: Chen Gang <gang.chen.5i5j@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
