2012-11-18sparc64: not any error from do_sigaltstack() should fail rt_sigreturn()Al Viro
If a signal handler is executed on altstack and another signal comes, we will end up with rt_sigreturn() on return from the second handler getting -EPERM from do_sigaltstack(). It's perfectly OK, since we are not asking to change the settings; in fact, they couldn't have been changed during the second handler execution exactly because we'd been on altstack all along. 64bit sigreturn on sparc treats any error from do_sigaltstack() as "SIGSEGV now"; we need to switch to the same semantics we are using on other architectures.

2012-10-26sparc64: Make montmul/montsqr/mpmul usable in 32-bit threads.David S. Miller
The Montgomery Multiply, Montgomery Square, and Multiple-Precision Multiply instructions work by loading a combination of the floating point and multiple register windows worth of integer registers with the inputs. These values are 64-bit. But for 32-bit userland processes we only save the low 32-bits of each integer register during a register spill. This is because the register window save area is in the user stack and has a fixed layout. Therefore, the only way to use these instruction in 32-bit mode is to perform the following sequence: 1) Load the top-32bits of a choosen integer register with a sentinel, say "-1". This will be in the outer-most register window. The idea is that we're trying to see if the outer-most register window gets spilled, and thus the 64-bit values were truncated. 2) Load all the inputs for the montmul/montsqr/mpmul instruction, down to the inner-most register window. 3) Execute the opcode. 4) Traverse back up to the outer-most register window. 5) Check the sentinel, if it's still "-1" store the results. Otherwise retry the entire sequence. This retry is extremely troublesome. If you're just unlucky and an interrupt or other trap happens, it'll push that outer-most window to the stack and clear the sentinel when we restore it. We could retry forever and never make forward progress if interrupts arrive at a fast enough rate (consider perf events as one example). So we have do limited retries and fallback to software which is extremely non-deterministic. Luckily it's very straightforward to provide a mechanism to let 32-bit applications use a 64-bit stack. Stacks in 64-bit mode are biased by 2047 bytes, which means that the lowest bit is set in the actual %sp register value. So if we see bit zero set in a 32-bit application's stack we treat it like a 64-bit stack. Runtime detection of such a facility is tricky, and cumbersome at best. For example, just trying to use a biased stack and seeing if it works is hard to recover from (the signal handler will need to use an alt stack, plus something along the lines of longjmp). Therefore, we add a system call to report a bitmask of arch specific features like this in a cheap and less hairy way. With help from Andy Polyakov. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-10-16sparc64: Fix bit twiddling in sparc_pmu_enable_event().David S. Miller
There was a serious disconnect in the logic happening in sparc_pmu_disable_event() vs. sparc_pmu_enable_event(). Event disable is implemented by programming a NOP event into the PCR. However, event enable was not reversing this operation. Instead, it was setting the User/Priv/Hypervisor trace enable bits. That's not sparc_pmu_enable_event()'s job, that's what sparc_pmu_enable() and sparc_pmu_disable() do . The intent of sparc_pmu_enable_event() is clear, since it first clear out the event type encoding field. So fix this by OR'ing in the event encoding rather than the trace enable bits.

2012-10-12vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Missing error types, attributes, and report fields. Pad out to 64-bytes. Make string reporting cleaner and easier to extend in the future using "const char *" arrays that index by either bit position, or absolute field value. Report the raw 64-byte error report as a sequence of u64s before the annotated version. Only report fields which are valid, given the context and the attribute bits which are set. For shutdown requests, use the local copy of the error report not the one we just freed up back to the queue. Also, use orderly_poweroff() just like the Domain Services shutdown request code does. If the real-address reported is "-1" (unknown) try to disassemble the instruction to report the effective address of the access. Only do this in privileged mode. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-10-09sparc64: Support transparent huge pages.David Miller
This is relatively easy since PMD's now cover exactly 4MB of memory. Our PMD entries are 32-bits each, so we use a special encoding. The lowest bit, PMD_ISHUGE, determines the interpretation. This is possible because sparc64's page tables are purely software entities so we can use whatever encoding scheme we want. We just have to make the TLB miss assembler page table walkers aware of the layout. set_pmd_at() works much like set_pte_at() but it has to operate in two page from a table of non-huge PTEs, so we have to queue up TLB flushes based upon what mappings are valid in the PTE table. In the second regime we are going from huge-page to non-huge-page, and in that case we need only queue up a single TLB flush to push out the huge page mapping. We still have 5 bits remaining in the huge PMD encoding so we can very likely support any new pieces of THP state tracking that might get added in the future. With lots of help from Johannes Weiner.

2012-10-09mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counterKonstantin Khlebnikov
A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA, currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects: | effect | alternative flags -+------------------------+--------------------------------------------- 1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO 2| skip in core dump | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP 3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP 4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct.

2012-10-05sparc64: Niagara-4 bzero/memset, plus use MRU stores in page copy.David S. Miller
This adds optimized memset/bzero/page-clear routines for Niagara-4. We basically can do what powerpc has been able to do for a decade (via the "dcbz" instruction), which is use cache line clearing stores for bzero and memsets with a 'c' argument of zero. As long as we make the cache initializing store to each 32-byte subblock of the L2 cache line, it works. As with other Niagara-4 optimized routines, the key is to make sure to avoid any usage of the %asi register, as reads and writes to it cost at least 50 cycles. For the user clear cases, we don't use these new routines, we use the Niagara-1 variants instead. Those have to use %asi in an unavoidable way. A Niagara-4 8K page clear costs just under 600 cycles. Add definitions of the MRU variants of the cache initializing store ASIs. By default, cache initializing stores install the line as Least Recently Used. If we know we're going to use the data immediately (which is true for page copies and clears) we can use the Most Recently Used variant, to decrease the likelyhood of the lines being evicted before they get used.

After fixing a couple of brainos, it even seems to work.

AFAICS, that ought to be solid. Again, deciding what to do with now unused delay slot of branch on ->syscall_noerror and dealing with the order of tests in ret_from_sys is a separate question, but at least that way we don't have to clean ->syscall_noerror in there at all. AFAICS, it ought to be a clear win - sth is not going to cost more than stb on etrap_64.S side of things, and we are losing write on syscalls.S one.

2012-09-21sparc: fix the return value of module_alloc()Wei Yongjun
In case of error, function module_alloc() in other platform never returns ERR_PTR(), and all of the user only check for NULL, so we'd better return NULL instead of ERR_PTR(). dpatch engine is used to auto generated this patch.

2012-09-18PCI: Provide a default pcibios_update_irq()Thierry Reding
Most architectures implement this in exactly the same way. Instead of having each architecture duplicate this function, provide a single implementation in the core and make it a weak symbol so that it can be overridden on architectures where it is required.

2012-09-18PCI: Discard __init annotations for pci_fixup_irqs() and related functionsThierry Reding
Remove the __init annotations in order to keep pci_fixup_irqs() around after init (e.g. for hotplug). This requires the same change for the implementation of pcibios_update_irq() on all architectures. While at it, all __devinit annotations are removed as well, since they will be useless now that HOTPLUG is always on.

2012-09-06sparc64: Probe cpu page size support more portably.David S. Miller
On sun4v, interrogate the machine description. This code is extremely defensive in nature, and a lot of the checks can probably be removed. On sun4u things are a lot simpler. There are the page sizes all chips support, and then Panther adds 32MB and 256MB pages. Report the probed value in /proc/cpuinfo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-09-06sparc64: Support 2GB and 16GB page sizes for kernel linear mappings.David S. Miller
SPARC-T4 supports 2GB pages. So convert kpte_linear_bitmap into an array of 2-bit values which index into kern_linear_pte_xor. Now kern_linear_pte_xor is used for 4 page size aligned regions, 4MB, 256MB, 2GB, and 16GB respectively. Enabling 2GB pages is currently hardcoded using a check against sun4v_chip_type. In the future this will be done more cleanly by interrogating the machine description which is the correct way to determine this kind of thing. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
