2009-06-18crypto: padlock-aes - work around Nano CPU errata in ECB modeChuck Ebbert
The VIA Nano processor has a bug that makes it prefetch extra data during encryption operations, causing spurious page faults. Extend existing workarounds for ECB mode to copy the data to an temporary buffer to avoid the problem.

2009-06-18perf_counter: tools: Makefile tweaks for 64-bit powerpcPaul Mackerras
On 64-bit powerpc, perf needs to be built as a 64-bit executable. This arranges to add the -m64 flag to CFLAGS if we are running on a 64-bit machine, indicated by the result of uname -m ending in "64". This means that we'll use -m64 on x86_64 machines as well.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Add processor back-end for MPC7450 familyPaul Mackerras
This adds support for the performance monitor hardware on the MPC7450 family of processors (7450, 7451, 7455, 7447/7457, 7447A, 7448), used in the later Apple G4 powermacs/powerbooks and other machines. These machines have 6 hardware counters with a unique set of events which can be counted on each counter, with some events being available on multiple counters. Raw event codes for these processors are (PMC << 8) + PMCSEL. If PMC is non-zero then the event is that selected by the given PMCSEL value for that PMC (hardware counter). If PMC is zero then the event selected is one of the low-numbered ones that are common to several PMCs. In this case PMCSEL must be <= 22 and the event is what that PMCSEL value would select on PMC1 (but it may be placed any other PMC that has the same event for that PMCSEL value). For events that count cycles or occurrences that exceed a threshold, the threshold requested can be specified in the 0x3f000 bits of the raw event codes. If the event uses the threshold multiplier bit and that bit should be set, that is indicated with the 0x40000 bit of the raw event code. This fills in some of the generic cache events. Unfortunately there are quite a few blank spaces in the table, partly because these processors tend to count cache hits rather than cache accesses.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Make powerpc perf_counter code safe for 32-bit kernelsPaul Mackerras
This abstracts a few things in arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c that are specific to 64-bit kernels, and provides definitions for 32-bit kernels. In particular, * Only 64-bit has MMCRA and the bits in it that give information about a PMU interrupt (sampled PR, HV, slot number etc.) * Only 64-bit has the lppaca and the lppaca->pmcregs_in_use field * Use of SDAR is confined to 64-bit for now * Only 64-bit has soft/lazy interrupt disable and therefore pseudo-NMIs (interrupts that occur while interrupts are soft-disabled) * Only 64-bit has PMC7 and PMC8 * Only 64-bit has the MSR_HV bit. This also fixes the types used in a couple of places, where we were using long types for things that need to be 64-bit.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Change how processor-specific back-ends get selectedPaul Mackerras
At present, the powerpc generic (processor-independent) perf_counter code has list of processor back-end modules, and at initialization, it looks at the PVR (processor version register) and has a switch statement to select a suitable processor-specific back-end. This is going to become inconvenient as we add more processor-specific back-ends, so this inverts the order: now each back-end checks whether it applies to the current processor, and registers itself if so. Furthermore, instead of looking at the PVR, back-ends now check the cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type string and match on that. Lastly, each back-end now specifies a name for itself so the core can print a nice message when a back-end registers itself. This doesn't provide any support for unregistering back-ends, but that wouldn't be hard to do and would allow back-ends to be modules.

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Use unsigned long for register and constraint valuesPaul Mackerras
This changes the powerpc perf_counter back-end to use unsigned long types for hardware register values and for the value/mask pairs used in checking whether a given set of events fit within the hardware constraints. This is in preparation for adding support for the PMU on some 32-bit powerpc processors. On 32-bit processors the hardware registers are only 32 bits wide, and the PMU structure is generally simpler, so 32 bits should be ample for expressing the hardware constraints. On 64-bit processors, unsigned long is 64 bits wide, so using unsigned long vs. u64 (unsigned long long) makes no actual difference. This makes some other very minor changes: adjusting whitespace to line things up in initialized structures, and simplifying some code in hw_perf_disable().

2009-06-18perf_counter: powerpc: Enable use of software counters on 32-bit powerpcPaul Mackerras
This enables the perf_counter subsystem on 32-bit powerpc. Since we don't have any support for hardware counters on 32-bit powerpc yet, only software counters can be used. Besides selecting HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for 32-bit powerpc as well as 64-bit, the main thing this does is add an implementation of set_perf_counter_pending(). This needs to arrange for perf_counter_do_pending() to be called when interrupts are enabled. Rather than add code to local_irq_restore as 64-bit does, the 32-bit set_perf_counter_pending() generates an interrupt by setting the decrementer to 1 so that a decrementer interrupt will become pending in 1 or 2 timebase ticks (if a decrementer interrupt isn't already pending). When interrupts are enabled, timer_interrupt() will be called, and some new code in there calls perf_counter_do_pending(). We use a per-cpu array of flags to indicate whether we need to call perf_counter_do_pending() or not. This introduces a couple of new Kconfig symbols: PPC_HAVE_PMU_SUPPORT, which is selected by processor families for which we have hardware PMU support (currently only PPC64), and PPC_PERF_CTRS, which enables the powerpc-specific perf_counter back-end.

Bugzilla: 9868 & 10195. There seems to be a bug into the SMM code that handles TCO Timeout SMI. Andriy Gapon found that the code on his DG33TL system does the following: > The handler is quite simple - it tests value in TCO1_CNT against 0x800, i.e. > checks TCO_TMR_HLT. If the bit is set the handler goes into an infinite loop, > apparently to allow the second timeout and reboot. Otherwise it simply clears > TIMEOUT bit in TCO1_STS and that's it. > So the logic seems to be reversed, because it is hard to see how TIMEOUT can > get set to 1 and SMI generated when TCO_TMR_HLT is set (other than a > transitional effect). The only trick we have is to bypass the SMM code by turning of the generation of the SMI#. The trick can only be enabled by setting the vendorsupport module parameter to 911. This trick doesn't work well on laptop's. Note: this is a dirty hack. Please handle with care. The only real fix is that the bug in the SMM bios code get's fixed.

My previous patch, which explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the list to flush them after the update is finished, isn't strict enough. It treats exceptionally tnodes without parent, assuming they are newly created, so "invisible" for the read side yet. But the top tnode doesn't have parent as well, so we have to exclude all exceptions (at least until a better way is found). Additionally we need to move rcu assignment of this node before flushing, so the return type of the trie_rebalance() function is changed.

2009-06-17i386: fix/simplify espfix stack switching, move it into assemblyAlexander van Heukelum
The espfix code triggers if we have a protected mode userspace application with a 16-bit stack. On returning to userspace, with iret, the CPU doesn't restore the high word of the stack pointer. This is an "official" bug, and the work-around used in the kernel is to temporarily switch to a 32-bit stack segment/pointer pair where the high word of the pointer is equal to the high word of the userspace stackpointer. The current implementation uses THREAD_SIZE to determine the cut-off, but there is no good reason not to use the more natural 64kb... However, implementing this by simply substituting THREAD_SIZE with 65536 in patch_espfix_desc crashed the test application. patch_espfix_desc tries to do what is described above, but gets it subtly wrong if the userspace stack pointer is just below a multiple of THREAD_SIZE: an overflow occurs to bit 13... With a bit of luck, when the kernelspace stackpointer is just below a 64kb-boundary, the overflow then ripples trough to bit 16 and userspace will see its stack pointer changed by 65536. This patch moves all espfix code into entry_32.S. Selecting a 16-bit cut-off simplifies the code. The game with changing the limit dynamically is removed too. It complicates matters and I see no value in it. Changing only the top 16-bit word of ESP is one instruction and it also implies that only two bytes of the ESPFIX GDT entry need to be changed and this can be implemented in just a handful simple to understand instructions. As a side effect, the operation to compute the original ESP from the ESPFIX ESP and the GDT entry simplifies a bit too, and the remaining three instructions have been expanded inline in entry_32.S. impact: can now reliably run userspace with ESP=xxxxfffc on 16-bit stack segment Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Acked-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru> Signed-off-by: H.

2009-06-17i386: fix return to 16-bit stack from NMI handlerAlexander van Heukelum
Returning to a task with a 16-bit stack requires special care: the iret instruction does not restore the high word of esp in that case. The espfix code fixes this, but currently is not invoked on NMIs. This means that a running task gets the upper word of esp clobbered due intervening NMIs. To reproduce, compile and run the following program with the nmi watchdog enabled (nmi_watchdog=2 on the command line). Using gdb you can see that the high bits of esp contain garbage, while the low bits are still correct. This patch puts the espfix code back into the NMI code path. The patch is slightly complicated due to the irqtrace infrastructure not being NMI-safe. The NMI return path cannot call TRACE_IRQS_IRET. Otherwise, the tail of the normal iret-code is correct for the nmi code path too. To be able to share this code-path, the TRACE_IRQS_IRET was move up a bit. The espfix code exists after the TRACE_IRQS_IRET, but this code explicitly disables interrupts. This short interrupts-off section is now not traced anymore. The return-to-kernel path now always includes the preliminary test to decide if the espfix code should be called. This is never the case, but doing it this way keeps the patch as simple as possible and the few extra instructions should not affect timing in any significant way. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <asm/ldt.h> int modify_ldt(int func, void *ptr, unsigned long bytecount) { return syscall(SYS_modify_ldt, func, ptr, bytecount); } /* this is assumed to be usable */ #define SEGBASEADDR 0x10000 #define SEGLIMIT 0x20000 /* 16-bit segment */ struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = 0, .base_addr = SEGBASEADDR, .limit = SEGLIMIT, .seg_32bit = 0, .contents = 0, /* ??? */ .read_exec_only = 0, .limit_in_pages = 0, .seg_not_present = 0, .useable = 1 }; int main(void) { setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IONBF, 0); /* map a 64 kb segment */ char *pointer = mmap((void *)SEGBASEADDR, SEGLIMIT+1, PROT_EXEC|PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); if (pointer == NULL) { printf("could not map space\n"); return 0; } /* write ldt, new mode */ int err = modify_ldt(0x11, &desc, sizeof(desc)); if (err) { printf("error modifying ldt: %i\n", err); return 0; } for (int i=0; i<1000; i++) { asm volatile ( "pusha\n\t" "mov %ss, %eax\n\t" /* preserve ss:esp */ "mov %esp, %ebp\n\t" "push $7\n\t" /* index 0, ldt, user mode */ "push $65536-4096\n\t" /* esp */ "lss (%esp), %esp\n\t" /* switch to new stack */ "push %eax\n\t" /* save old ss:esp on new stack */ "push %ebp\n\t" "add $17*65536, %esp\n\t" /* set high bits */ "mov %esp, %edx\n\t" "mov $10000000, %ecx\n\t" /* wait... */ "1: loop 1b\n\t" /* ... a bit */ "cmp %esp, %edx\n\t" "je 1f\n\t" "ud2\n\t" /* esp changed inexplicably! */ "1:\n\t" "sub $17*65536, %esp\n\t" /* restore high bits */ "lss (%esp), %esp\n\t" /* restore old ss:esp */ "popa\n\t"); printf("\rx%ix", i); } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Acked-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru> Signed-off-by: H.

2009-06-17sky2: fix shutdown synchronizationStephen Hemminger
The logic in sky2_down was incorrect. Receiver could report status after rx_stop was called.

2009-06-17r8169: do not bring device down when suspendingfrançois romieu
Stopping all activity through ChipCmd and blindly acking the irqs is neither nice nor completely needed: the transition to low-power mode does enough work and it apparently keeps the device in a sane state. Patch suggested by a fix for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9512 The rtl_shutdown path is kept unchanged so far.
