* x86 get_unmapped_area: Access mmap_legacy_base through mm_struct memberRadu Caragea2013-08-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the updated version of df54d6fa5427 ("x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction") that only randomizes the mmap base address once.

* Revert "x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction"Linus Torvalds2013-08-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826. The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't specified. In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774 So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

* x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up directionRadu Caragea2013-08-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the stack is set to unlimited, the bottomup direction is used for mmap-ings but the mmap_base is not used and thus effectively renders ASLR for mmapings along with PIE useless.

* mm: fix cache coloring on x86_64 architectureMichel Lespinasse2012-12-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the x86-64 cache alignment code to take pgoff into account. Use the x86 and MIPS cache alignment code as the basis for a generic cache alignment function. The old x86 code will always align the mmap to aliasing boundaries, even if the program mmaps the file with a non-zero pgoff. If program A mmaps the file with pgoff 0, and program B mmaps the file with pgoff 1. The old code would align the mmaps, resulting in misaligned pages: A: 0123 B: 123 After this patch, they are aligned so the pages line up: A: 0123 B: 123 Proposed by Rik van Riel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides performance tuning for the "Bulldozer" CPU. With its shared instruction cache there is a chance of generating an excessive number of cache cross-invalidates when running specific workloads on the cores of a compute module. This excessive amount of cross-invalidations can be observed if cache lines backed by shared physical memory alias in bits [14:12] of their virtual addresses, as those bits are used for the index generation. This patch addresses the issue by clearing all the bits in the [14:12] slice of the file mapping's virtual address at generation time, thus forcing those bits the same for all mappings of a single shared library across processes and, in doing so, avoids instruction cache aliases. It also adds the command line option "align_va_addr=(32|64|on|off)" with which virtual address alignment can be enabled for 32-bit or 64-bit x86 individually, or both, or be completely disabled. This change leaves virtual region address allocation on other families and/or vendors unaffected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with one unified implementation. This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated code. It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers) I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL isn't needed.
