* [ARM] Improve non-executable supportRussell King2008-10-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Add support for detecting non-executable stack binaries, and adjust permissions to prevent execution from data and stack areas. Also, ensure that READ_IMPLIES_EXEC is enabled for older CPUs where that is true, and for any executable-stack binary. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
* kgdb: support for ARCH=armJason Wessel2008-07-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ARCH=arm specific a kgdb backend, originally written by Deepak Saxena <dsaxena@plexity.net> and George Davis <gdavis@mvista.com>. Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com>, Nicolas Pitre, Manish Lachwani, and Jason Wessel have contributed various fixups here as well. The KGDB patch makes one change to the core ARM architecture such that the traps are initialized early for use with the debugger or other subsystems.

| * Generic semaphore implementationMatthew Wilcox2008-04-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and extensibility. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep warning. Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the unlikely() was unnecessary.

* [ARM] 4736/1: Export atags to userspace and allow kexec to use customised atagsRichard Purdie2008-02-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the atags used by kexec are fixed to the ones originally used to boot the kernel. This is less than ideal as changing the commandline, initrd and other options would be a useful feature. This patch exports the atags used for the current kernel to userspace through an "atags" file in procfs. The presence of the file is controlled by its own Kconfig option and cleans up several ifdef blocks into a separate file. The tags for the new kernel are assumed to be at a fixed location before the kernel image itself. The location of the tags used to boot the original kernel is unimportant and no longer saved.

* ARM kprobes: core codeAbhishek Sagar2008-01-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a full implementation of Kprobes including Jprobes and Kretprobes support. This ARM implementation does not follow the usual kprobes double- exception model. The traditional model is where the initial kprobes breakpoint calls kprobe_handler(), which returns from exception to execute the instruction in its original context, then immediately re-enters after a second breakpoint (or single-stepping exception) into post_kprobe_handler(), each time the probe is hit.. The ARM implementation only executes one kprobes exception per hit, so no post_kprobe_handler() phase. All side-effects from the kprobe'd instruction are resolved before returning from the initial exception. As a result, all instructions are _always_ effectively boosted regardless of the type of instruction, and even regardless of whether or not there is a post-handler for the probe.

* ARM kprobes: instruction single-stepping supportQuentin Barnes2008-01-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the code implementing instruction single-stepping for kprobes on ARM. To get around the limitation of no Next-PC and no hardware single- stepping, all kprobe'd instructions are split into three camps: simulation, emulation, and rejected. "Simulated" instructions are those instructions which behavior is reproduced by straight C code. "Emulated" instructions are ones that are copied, slightly altered and executed directly in the instruction slot to reproduce their behavior. "Rejected" instructions are ones that could be simulated, but work hasn't been put into simulating them. These instructions should be very rare, if not unencountered, in the kernel. If ever needed, code could be added to simulate them. One might wonder why this and the ptrace singlestep facility are not sharing some code. Both approaches are fundamentally different because the ptrace code regains control after the stepped instruction by installing a breakpoint after the instruction itself, and possibly at the location where the instruction might be branching to, instead of simulating or emulating the target instruction. The ptrace approach isn't suitable for kprobes because the breakpoints would have to be moved back, and the icache flushed, everytime the probe is hit to let normal code execution resume, which would have a significant performance impact. It is also racy on SMP since another CPU could, with the right timing, sail through the probe point without being caught. Because ptrace single-stepping always result in a different process to be scheduled, the concern for performance is much less significant. On the other hand, the kprobes approach isn't (currently) suitable for ptrace because it has no provision for proper user space memory protection and translation, and even if that was implemented, the gain wouldn't be worth the added complexity in the ptrace path compared to the current approach. So, until kprobes does support user space, both kprobes and ptrace are best kept independent and separate.

| * [ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec supportRichard Purdie2007-02-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add kexec support to ARM. Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347. Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist. Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward ported by various people.

* [ARM] 3881/4: xscale: clean up cp0/cp1 handlingLennert Buytenhek2006-12-031-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | XScale cores either have a DSP coprocessor (which contains a single 40 bit accumulator register), or an iWMMXt coprocessor (which contains eight 64 bit registers.) Because of the small amount of state in the DSP coprocessor, access to the DSP coprocessor (CP0) is always enabled, and DSP context switching is done unconditionally on every task switch. Access to the iWMMXt coprocessor (CP0/CP1) is enabled only when an iWMMXt instruction is first issued, and iWMMXt context switching is done lazily. CONFIG_IWMMXT is supposed to mean 'the cpu we will be running on will have iWMMXt support', but boards are supposed to select this config symbol by hand, and at least one pxa27x board doesn't get this right, so on that board, proc-xscale.S will incorrectly assume that we have a DSP coprocessor, enable CP0 on boot, and we will then only save the first iWMMXt register (wR0) on context switches, which is Bad. This patch redefines CONFIG_IWMMXT as 'the cpu we will be running on might have iWMMXt support, and we will enable iWMMXt context switching if it does.' This means that with this patch, running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=n kernel on an iWMMXt-capable CPU will no longer potentially corrupt iWMMXt state over context switches, and running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=y kernel on a non-iWMMXt capable CPU will still do DSP context save/restore. These changes should make iWMMXt work on PXA3xx, and as a side effect, enable proper acc0 save/restore on non-iWMMXt capable xsc3 cores such as IOP13xx and IXP23xx (which will not have CONFIG_CPU_XSCALE defined), as well as setting and using HWCAP_IWMMXT properly.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
