| * MIPS: Outline udelay and fix a few issues.Ralf Baechle2009-06-085-92/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline boundary. The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly. Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for explicit. The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to be fixed on another day.

| * | [ARM] ARMv7 errata: only apply fixes when running on applicable CPURussell King2009-06-021-11/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, whenever an erratum workaround is enabled, it will be applied whether or not the erratum is relevent for the CPU. This patch changes this - we check the variant and revision fields in the main ID register to determine which errata to apply. We also avoid re-applying erratum 460075 if it has already been applied. Applying this fix in non-secure mode results in the kernel failing to boot (or even do anything.) This fixes booting on some ARMv7 based platforms which otherwise silently fail.

Since operand lengths other than 32bit are required, the full implementations are only available if the ARMv6K extensions are present (for the LDREXB, LDREXH and LDREXD instructions). For ARMv6, only 32-bits cmpxchg is available. Mathieu : Make cmpxchg_local always available with best implementation for all type sizes (1, 2, 4 bytes). Make cmpxchg64_local always available. Use "Ir" constraint for "old" operand, like atomic.h atomic_cmpxchg does. Change since v3 : - Add "memory" clobbers (thanks to Nicolas Pitre) - removed __asmeq(), only needed for old compilers, very unlikely on ARMv6+. Note : ARMv7-M should eventually be ifdefed-out of cmpxchg64. But it's not supported by the Linux kernel currently. Put back arm < v6 cmpxchg support.

Those barriers are currently missing on ARM. - test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers. So put these barriers in. Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub operations which do not require barriers.

As part of this, page_table_shareable() checks a pair of vma->vm_flags and they must match if they are to be shared. All VMA flags are taken into account, including VM_LOCKED. The problem is that VM_LOCKED is cleared on fork(). When a process with a shared memory segment forks() to exec() a helper, there will be shared VMAs with different flags. The impact is that the shared segment is sometimes considered shareable and other times not, depending on what process is checking. What happens is that the segment page tables are being shared but the count is inaccurate depending on the ordering of events. As the page tables are freed with put_page(), bad pmd's are found when some of the children exit. The hugepage counters also get corrupted and the Total and Free count will no longer match even when all the hugepage-backed regions are freed. This requires a reboot of the machine to "fix". This patch addresses the problem by comparing all flags except VM_LOCKED when deciding if pagetables should be shared or not for hugetlbfs-backed mapping.

However, on the Xtensa S6000 we have registers up to 128bit width which can be used from userspace and therefor need userspace stack and data-section alignment of at least this size. This patch drops flat_stack_align() and uses the same alignment that is required for slab caches, ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN, or wordsize if it's not defined by the architecture. It also fixes m32r which was obviously kaput, aligning an uninitialized stack entry instead of the stack pointer.
