* ARM: 6503/1: Thumb-2: Restore sensible zImage header layout for ↵Dave Martin2010-11-302-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a 32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address. This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the size of the initial padding NOPs changes. Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to ARM. In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point. As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the Thumb-2 case.

* ARM: 6502/1: Thumb-2: Fix CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL breakage in compressed/head.SDave Martin2010-11-301-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some instruction operand combinations are used here which are nor permitted in Thumb-2. In particular, most uses of pc as an operand are disallowed in Thumb-2, and deprecated in ARM from ARMv7 onwards. The modified code introduced by this patch should be compatible with all architecture versions >= v3, with or without CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL.

* ARM: 6501/1: Thumb-2: Correct data alignment for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL in ↵Dave Martin2010-11-301-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mm/proc-v7.S Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction. In this specific case, we can achieve the desired alignment by forcing a 32-bit branch instruction using the W() macro, since the assembler location counter is already 32-bit aligned in this case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit e0fdace10e75dac67d906213b780ff1b1a4cc360. On-list discussion seems to suggest that the robustness fixes for printk make this unnecessary and DaveM has also agreed in person at Kernel Summit and on list. The main problem with this code is once we hit a lockdep splat we always keep oops_in_progress set, the console layer uses oops_in_progress with KMS to decide when it should be showing the oops and not showing X, so it causes problems around suspend/resume time when a userspace resume can cause a console switch away from X, only if oops_in_progress is set (which is what we want if an oops actually is in progress, but not because we had a lockdep splat 2 days prior).

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some Lenovos have TPMs that require a quirk to function correctly. This can be autodetected by checking whether the device has a _HID of INTC0102. This is an invalid PNPid, and as such is discarded by the pnp layer - however it's still present in the ACPI code, so we can pull it out that way. This means that the quirk won't be automatically applied on non-ACPI systems, but without ACPI we don't have any way to identify the chip anyway so I don't think that's a great concern.

Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files), since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue sizes only. Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels. Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared when socket receive queue is emptied. Reported-by: Марк Коренберг <socketpair@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

But that will sometimes cause tx halt while working in half duplex mode. According to errata draft QE_GENERAL-A003(High Tx Virtual FIFO threshold size can cause UCC to halt), setting UTFTT less than [(UTFS x (M - 8)/M) - 128] will prevent this from happening (M is the minimum buffer size). The patch changes UTFTT back to 256.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | inet sockets corresponding to passive connections are added to the bind hash using ___inet_inherit_port(). These sockets are later removed from the bind hash using __inet_put_port(). These two functions are not exactly symmetrical. __inet_put_port() decrements hashinfo->bsockets and tb->num_owners, whereas ___inet_inherit_port() does not increment them. This results in both of these going to -ve values. This patch fixes this by calling inet_bind_hash() from ___inet_inherit_port(), which does the right thing.

When it's time to stop DMA, the PCU is still busy, so the rx enable bit never clears. Using ath9k_hw_abortpcurecv helps with getting rx stopped much faster, with this change, I cannot reproduce the rx stop related WARN_ON anymore.

My analysis is we can eat all LOWMEM memory before unix_gc() being called from unix_release_sock(). Moreover, the thread blocked in unix_gc() can consume huge amount of time to perform cleanup because of huge working set. One way to handle this is to have a sensible limit on unix_tot_inflight, tested from wait_for_unix_gc() and to force a call to unix_gc() if this limit is hit. This solves the OOM and also reduce overall latencies, and should not slowdown normal workloads.

These crashes only occur when the console is on one of the OMAP internal serial ports. While this problem has been latent in the PM idle loop for some time, the crash was not triggerable with an unmodified kernel until commit 6f251e9db1093c187addc309b5f2f7fe3efd2995 ("OMAP: UART: omap_device conversions, remove implicit 8520 assumptions"). After this patch, a console write often occurs after the console UART has been disabled in the idle loop, crashing the system. Several users have encountered this bug: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg38396.html http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg36602.html The same commit also introduced new code that disabled the UARTs during init, in omap_serial_init_port(). The kernel will also crash in this code when earlyconsole and extra debugging is enabled: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg36411.html The minimal fix for the -rc series is to hold the console semaphore while the OMAP UARTs are disabled. This is a somewhat overbroad fix, since the console may not be located on an OMAP UART, as is the case with the GPMC UART on Zoom3. While it is technically possible to determine which devices the console or earlyconsole is actually running on, it is not a trivial problem to solve, and the code to do so is not really appropriate for the -rc series. The right long-term fix is to ensure that no code outside of the OMAP serial driver can disable an OMAP UART. As I understand it, code to implement this is under development by TI.
