2009-01-14[CVE-2009-0029] System call wrapper special casesHeiko Carstens
System calls with an unsigned long long argument can't be converted with the standard wrappers since that would include a cast to long, which in turn means that we would lose the upper 32 bit on 32 bit architectures. Also semctl can't use the standard wrapper since it has a 'union' parameter. So we handle them as special case and add some extra wrappers instead.

2009-01-13powerpc/83xx: Make serial ports work on MPC8315E-RDB w/ FSL U-BootsAnton Vorontsov
FSL U-Boots use /soc8315@e0000000 node to search and fixup serial nodes' clock-frequency properties. Though in upstream kernels we use new naming convention -- for IMMR address space dts files specify /immr@e0000000 nodes. This makes FSL U-Boots fail to fixup the clock frequencies, and that leads to serial ports misbehaviour. We can workaround the issue by filling the clock frequency values manually. p.s. For the same reason FSL U-Boots fail to fixup MAC addresses for ethernet nodes, so users should either change the .dts file locally or set MAC address via `ifconfig hw ether' command.

2009-01-13Fix timeouts in sys_pselect7Bernd Schmidt
Since we (Analog Devices) updated our Blackfin kernel to 2.6.28, we've seen occasional 5-second hangs from telnet. telnetd calls select with a NULL timeout, but with the new kernel, the system call occasionally returns 0, which causes telnet to call sleep (5). This did not happen with earlier kernels. The code in sys_pselect7 looks a bit strange, in particular the variable "to" is initialized to NULL, then changed if a non-null timeout was passed in, but not used further. It needs to be passed to core_sys_select instead of &end_time. This bug was introduced by 8ff3e8e85fa6c312051134b3953e397feb639f51 ("select: switch select() and poll() over to hrtimers").

2009-01-13fix early_serial_setup() regressionHelge Deller
Commit b430428a188e8a434325e251d0704af4b88b4711 ("8250: Don't clobber spinlocks.") introduced a regression on the parisc architecture, which broke the handover to the serial port at boottime. early_serial_setup() was changed to only copy a subset of the uart_port fields, and sadly the "type" and "line" fields were forgotten and thus the serial port was not initialized and could not be used for a handover. This patch fixes this by copying the missing fields. As this change to early_serial_setup() doesn't need an initialized spinlock in the uart_port struct any longer, we can drop the spinlock initialization in the superio driver.

This patch handles it by removing the WARN_ON and returning a specific error value (EFAULT) to indicate that the address does not have any identity mapping. The code that tries to keep identity map in sync can ignore this error, with other callers of cpa still getting error here.

2009-01-13x86 PAT: return compatible mapping to remap_pfn_range callersvenkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com
Impact: avoid warning message, potentially solve 3D performance regression Change x86 PAT code to return compatible memtype if the exact memtype that was requested in remap_pfn_rage and friends is not available due to some conflict. This is done by returning the compatible type in pgprot parameter of track_pfn_vma_new(), and the caller uses that memtype for page table. Note that track_pfn_vma_copy() which is basically called during fork gets the prot from existing page table and should not have any conflict. Hence we use strict memtype check there and do not allow compatible memtypes. This patch fixes the bug reported here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123108883716357&w=2 Specifically the error message: X:5010 map pfn expected mapping type write-back for d0000000-d0101000, got write-combining Should go away.

2009-01-13powerpc/powermac: Fix occasional SMP boot failureBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The PowerMac kernel occasionally fails to bring up the secondary CPUs on SMP, the trigger factor seem to be fairly random and related to location of code and data. This appears to be due to the initial loading of the TOC value by the secondary processor which now happens before we clear HID4:RM_CI (Real Mode Cache Invalidate). This bit should really be cleared before we do any load or store other than fetching code. This fix works based on the assumption that all SMP 64-bit PowerMacs use variants of the 970, which fortunately is true, by explicitely clearing that bit, adding an slbia for good measure as RM_CI mode is known to create bogus ERAT entries. I also removed some spurrious debug output that was left enabled by mistake while at it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-01-13hvc_console: Do not set low_latency when using interruptsMilton Miller
hvc_console is setting low_latency unconditionally, but some clients are interrupt driven and will call hvc_poll from irq context. This will cause tty_flip_buffer_push to be called from irq context, and it very clearly states it must not be called from IRQ when low_latency is specified. Looking back through history: v2.6.16-rc1 via 33f0f88f1c51ae5c2d593d26960c760ea154c2e2 [PATCH] TTY layer buffering revamp added this new api. v2.6.16-rc3 via 8977d929e49021d9a6e031310aab01fa72f849c2 [PATCH] tty buffering stall fix claims to fix a stall discovered with hvc_console v2.6.16-rc5 via fb5c594c2acc441f0d2d8f457484a0e0e9285db3 [PATCH] Fix race condition in hvc console. said set this flag to avoid a stall problem, and was merged through the powerpc arch tree. Without searching for email discussions, it would appear to be an overlapping "fix", but one that did not consider all users. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-01-13hvc_console: Call free_irq() only if request_irq() was successfulMilton Miller
Only call free_irq if we marked the request_irq has having succeeded instead of whenever the the sub-driver identified the interrupt to use. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-01-13hvc_console: Change an mb() to smp_mb() and add some commentsMilton Miller
I remember some history on this barrier. There was a race between open via /dev/console and the tty being fully setup. Its also why there is a temporary variable and the global is assigned at the end of the function.

2009-01-13powerpc: Change u64/s64 to a long long integer typeIngo Molnar
Convert arch/powerpc/ over to long long based u64: -#ifdef __powerpc64__ -# include <asm-generic/int-l64.h> -#else -# include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h> -#endif +#include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h> This will avoid reoccuring spurious warnings in core kernel code that comes when people test on their own hardware. (i.e. x86 in ~98% of the cases) This is what x86 uses and it generally helps keep 64-bit code 32-bit clean too.

2009-01-13powerpc/kexec: Check crash_base for relocatable kernelMilton Miller
Enforce that the crash kernel region never overlaps the current kernel, as it will be written directly on kexec load. Also, default to the previous KDUMP_KERNELBASE if the start is 0. Other architectures (x86, ia64) state that specifying the start address 0 (or omitting it) will result in the kernel allocating it. Before the relocatable patch in 2.6.28, powerpc would adjust any other start value to the hardcoded KDUMP_KERNELBASE of 32M.
