2012-03-29Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-armLinus Torvalds
Pull more ARM updates from Russell King. This got a fair number of conflicts with the <asm/system.h> split, but also with some other sparse-irq and header file include cleanups.

2012-01-26ARM: pgtable: consolidate set_pte_ext(TOP_PTE,...) + tlb flushRussell King
A number of places establish a PTE in our top page table and immediately flush the TLB. Rather than having this at every callsite, provide an inline function for this purpose. This changes some global tlb flushes to be local; each time we setup one of these mappings, we always do it with preemption disabled which would prevent us migrating to another CPU.

2011-09-13locking, ARM: Annotate low level hw locks as rawThomas Gleixner
Annotate the low level hardware locks which must not be preempted. In mainline this change documents the low level nature of the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference.

2011-07-08ARM: 6995/2: mm: remove unnecessary cache flush on v6 copypageHeechul Yun

2010-09-19ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cacheCatalin Marinas
There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page() (several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache(). The patch also sets the PG_arch_1 bit in the DMA cache maintenance function to avoid additional cache flushing in update_mmu_cache().

2010-04-14ARM: 6007/1: fix highmem with VIPT cache and DMANicolas Pitre
The VIVT cache of a highmem page is always flushed before the page is unmapped. This cache flush is explicit through flush_cache_kmaps() in flush_all_zero_pkmaps(), or through __cpuc_flush_dcache_area() in kunmap_atomic(). There is also an implicit flush of those highmem pages that were part of a process that just terminated making those pages free as the whole VIVT cache has to be flushed on every task switch. Hence unmapped highmem pages need no cache maintenance in that case. However unmapped pages may still be cached with a VIPT cache because the cache is tagged with physical addresses. There is no need for a whole cache flush during task switching for that reason, and despite the explicit cache flushes in flush_all_zero_pkmaps() and kunmap_atomic(), some highmem pages that were mapped in user space end up still cached even when they become unmapped. So, we do have to perform cache maintenance on those unmapped highmem pages in the context of DMA when using a VIPT cache. Unfortunately, it is not possible to perform that cache maintenance using physical addresses as all the L1 cache maintenance coprocessor functions accept virtual addresses only. Therefore we have no choice but to set up a temporary virtual mapping for that purpose. And of course the explicit cache flushing when unmapping a highmem page on a system with a VIPT cache now can go, which should increase performance. While at it, because the code in __flush_dcache_page() has to be modified anyway, let's also make sure the mapped highmem pages are pinned with kmap_high_get() for the duration of the cache maintenance operation. Because kunmap() does unmap highmem pages lazily, it was reported by Gary King <GKing@nvidia.com> that those pages ended up being unmapped during cache maintenance on SMP causing segmentation faults.

2009-12-04ARM: 5794/1: Flush the D-cache during copy_user_highpage()Catalin Marinas
The I and D caches for copy-on-write pages on processors with write-allocate caches become incoherent causing problems on application relying on CoW for text pages (dynamic linker relocating symbols in a text page).

2008-11-27[ARM] copypage: provide our own copy_user_highpage()Russell King
We used to override the copy_user_page() function. However, this is not only inefficient, it also causes additional complexity for highmem support, since we convert from a struct page to a kernel direct mapped address and back to a struct page again. Moreover, with highmem support, we end up pointlessly setting up kmap entries for pages which we're going to remap. So, push the kmapping down into the copypage implementation files where it's required. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-01[ARM] cachetype: move definitions to separate headerRussell King

2006-12-30[ARM] 4078/1: Fix ARM copypage cache coherency problemsRichard Purdie
If PG_dcache_dirty is set for a page, we need to flush the source page before performing any copypage operation using a different virtual address. This fixes the copypage implementations for XScale, StrongARM and ARMv6. This patch fixes segmentation faults seen in the dynamic linker under the usage patterns in glibc 2.4/2.5.

2006-12-13[ARM] Unuse another Linux PTE bitRussell King
L_PTE_ASID is not really required to be stored in every PTE, since we can identify it via the address passed to set_pte_at(). So, create set_pte_ext() which takes the address of the PTE to set, the Linux PTE value, and the additional CPU PTE bits which aren't encoded in the Linux PTE value.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
