2010-01-08omap1: Fix compile for omap1_bl.cTony Lindgren
Commit 9905a43b made struct backlight_ops const. Omap was setting check_fb dynamically, which caused the following compile error: drivers/video/backlight/omap1_bl.c: In function 'omapbl_probe': drivers/video/backlight/omap1_bl.c:142: error: assignment of read-only variable 'omapbl_ops' Turns out pdata->check_fb is not being used, so just remove it to fix the compile.

2010-01-08omap: gpio: Simultaneously requested rising and falling edgeCory Maccarrone
Some chips, namely any OMAP1 chips using METHOD_MPUIO, OMAP15xx and OMAP7xx, cannot be setup to respond to on-chip GPIO interrupts in both rising and falling edge directions -- they can only respond to one direction or the other, depending on how the ICR is configured. Additionally, current code forces rising edge detection if both flags are specified: if (trigger & IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING) l |= 1 << gpio; else if (trigger & IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING) l &= ~(1 << gpio); else goto bad; This change implements a toggle function that will modify the ICR to flip the direction of interrupt for IRQs that are requested with both rising and falling flags. The toggle function is not called for chips and GPIOs it does not apply to through the use of a flip_mask that's added on a per-bank basis. The mask is only set for those GPIOs where a toggle is necessary. Edge detection starts out the same as above with FALLING mode first. The toggle happens on EACH interrupt; without it, we have the following sequence of actions on GPIO transition: ICR GPIO Result 0x1 0 -> 1 (rising) Interrupt 0x1 1 -> 0 (falling) No interrupt (set ICR to 0x0 manually) 0x0 0 -> 1 (rising) No interrupt 0x0 1 -> 0 (falling) Interrupt That is, with the ICR set to 1 for a gpio, only rising edge interrupts are caught, and with it set to 0, only falling edge interrupts are caught. If we add in the toggle, we get this: ICR GPIO Result 0x1 0 -> 1 (rising) Interrupt (ICR set to 0x0) 0x0 1 -> 0 (falling) Interrupt (ICR set to 0x1) 0x1 0 -> 1 ... so, both rising and falling are caught, per the request for both (IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING | IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING).

The VFS reads the inode size during generic_file_aio_write() but with no locking around it. In order to get the expected result from O_APPEND opens, this patch updated the inode size before calling generic_file_aio_write() There is of course still a race here, in that there is nothing to prevent another node coming in and extending the file in the mean time. On the other hand, when used with file locking this will ensure that the expected results are obtained. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2010-01-07ARM: S3C64XX: Fix possible clock look in EPLL and MPLL clock chainsBen Dooks
There is a possibility of a loop happening in the PLL output clock chain on the S3C64XX series. clk_mpll's parent was set to be clk_mout_mpll, but this is fed from clk_fout_epll (which is also clk_mpll). clk_mpll is meant to be the output from the MPLL, and clk_mout_mpll is a seperate clock derived from the mux of clk_mpll and clk_fin_mpll and thus should be considered a seperate clock. Anything using clk_mpll directly really should not be relying on this being the clock that is eventually routed to a peripheral, so remove the loop and ensure that the clocks accurately represent the clock chain in the device. The clk_mpll is not being used outside of the s3c6400-clock.c code, so this change should not break anything else. Do the same for the EPLL. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org>

2010-01-06NOMMU: Use copy_*_user_page() in access_process_vm()Jie Zhang
The MMU code uses the copy_*_user_page() variants in access_process_vm() rather than copy_*_user() as the former includes an icache flush. This is important when doing things like setting software breakpoints with gdb. So switch the NOMMU code over to do the same. This patch makes the reasonable assumption that copy_from_user_page() won't fail - which is probably fine, as we've checked the VMA from which we're copying is usable, and the copy is not allowed to cross VMAs. The one case where it might go wrong is if the VMA is a device rather than RAM, and that device returns an error which - in which case rubbish will be returned rather than EIO.

2010-01-06NOMMU: Avoiding duplicate icache flushes of shared mapsMike Frysinger
When working with FDPIC, there are many shared mappings of read-only code regions between applications (the C library, applet packages like busybox, etc.), but the current do_mmap_pgoff() function will issue an icache flush whenever a VMA is added to an MM instead of only doing it when the map is initially created. The flush can instead be done when a region is first mmapped PROT_EXEC. Note that we may not rely on the first mapping of a region being executable - it's possible for it to be PROT_READ only, so we have to remember whether we've flushed the region or not, and then flush the entire region when a bit of it is made executable. However, this also affects the brk area. That will no longer be executable. We can mprotect() it to PROT_EXEC on MPU-mode kernels, but for NOMMU mode kernels, when it increases the brk allocation, making sys_brk() flush the extra from the icache should suffice. The brk area probably isn't used by NOMMU programs since the brk area can only use up the leavings from the stack allocation, where the stack allocation is larger than requested.

2010-01-06FDPIC: Respect PT_GNU_STACK exec protection markings when creating NOMMU stackMike Frysinger
The current code will load the stack size and protection markings, but then only use the markings in the MMU code path. The NOMMU code path always passes PROT_EXEC to the mmap() call. While this doesn't matter to most people whilst the code is running, it will cause a pointless icache flush when starting every FDPIC application. Typically this icache flush will be of a region on the order of 128KB in size, or may be the entire icache, depending on the facilities available on the CPU. In the case where the arch default behaviour seems to be desired (EXSTACK_DEFAULT), we probe VM_STACK_FLAGS for VM_EXEC to determine whether we should be setting PROT_EXEC or not. For arches that support an MPU (Memory Protection Unit - an MMU without the virtual mapping capability), setting PROT_EXEC or not will make an important difference. It should be noted that this change also affects the executability of the brk region, since ELF-FDPIC has that share with the stack. However, this is probably irrelevant as NOMMU programs aren't likely to use the brk region, preferring instead allocation via mmap().
