Manuel Lauss <manuel.lauss@gmail.com> writes:
I introduced it as a fallback because early revisions of Alchemy hardware
we shipped had a non-functional 32kHz timer and had to rely on the r4k
timer instead. Previously the r4k timer was initialized regardless, but
it's useless with the "wait" instruction.
So long story short: I need either the on-chip 32kHz timer OR the r4k
timer if the 32kHz one is unusable, but not both, and r4k timer is useless
when au1k_idle is in use.
The current in-kernel Alchemy boards all work with the 32kHz timer, so I'm
not against removing R4K_LIB symbols.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

The actual bug is a missing else statement - but really this should be
expressed using a switch() statement.
Found by Al Viro who writes "the funny thing is, it *does* work only
because r2 is syscall number and syscall number around 512 => return
value being ENOSYS and not one of ERESTART... so we really can't hit
the first if and emerge from it with ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. still
wrong to write it that way..."

The problem occurs [1] when a kernel-mode task returns from a system
call with a pending signal.
A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed
kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ].
kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of
"kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot).
The loop is as follows:
* syscall_exit_work:
- work_pending: // start_of_the_loop
- work_notifysig:
- do_notify_resume()
- do_signal()
- if (!user_mode(regs)) return;
- resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set
- work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto
// start_of_the_loop
More information can be found in another LKML thread:
http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,457826
[1] The problem was also reproduced on !CONFIG_VM86 x86, and the
following fix was accepted.

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it
crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds
an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature
looks like this:
kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed
Call Trace:
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type
is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed
to happen.

Change the indicator from 0xffffffff in the "event_id" member to
zero in the "cntr_mask" member. This removes the need to initialize
entries that are unsupported. This also solves a problem where the
number of entries in the table was increased based on a globel enum
used for all platforms, but the new unsupported entries were not added
for mips. This was leaving new table entries of all zeros that we not

We can save an instruction in the TLB Refill path for kernel mappings
by aligning swapper_pg_dir on a 64K boundary. The address of
swapper_pg_dir can be generated with a single LUI instead of
LUI/{D}ADDUI.
The alignment of __init_end is bumped up to 64K so there are no holes
between it and swapper_pg_dir, which is placed at the very beginning
of .bss.
The alignment of invalid_pmd_table and invalid_pte_table can be
relaxed to PAGE_SIZE. We do this by using __page_aligned_bss, which
has the added benefit of eliminating alignment holes in .bss.

The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
"gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
such as icecream do expect.
This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
miscompilations.
Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
incorrect -x parameter syntax.

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
"Random fixes across arch/mips, essentially.
One fix for an issue in get_user_pages_fast() which previously was
discovered on x86, a miscalculation in the support for the MIPS MT
hardware multithreading support, the RTC support for the Malta and a
fix for a spurious interrupt issue that seems to bite only very
special Malta configurations."
* 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
MIPS: Malta: Don't crash on spurious interrupt.
MIPS: Malta: Remove RTC Data Mode bootstrap breakage
MIPS: mm: Add compound tail page _mapcount when mapped
MIPS: CMP/SMTC: Fix tc_id calculation

No need to keep 4 copies of that stuff; merged and taken to
entry.S, unused public symbols there killed off.
