2011-11-17stmmac: remove spin_lock in stmmac_ioctl.Srinivas Kandagatla
This patch removes un-needed spin_lock in stmmac_ioctl while reading and writing mdio registers. While holding spin_lock the code must be atomic, which is not true in this case as both mdiobus_read and writes have mutex locks. Without this patch reading mdio registers via mii-tool results in below BUG: mii-tool -vvv eth0" Using SIOCGMIIPHY=0x8947 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/mutex.c:287 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 614, name: mii-tool 2 locks held by mii-tool/614: #0: (rtnl_mutex){......}, at: [<c01fd80c>] dev_ioctl+0x550/0x674 #1: (&priv->lock){......}, at: [<c01b34ec>] stmmac_ioctl+0x4c/0x78 [<c002ea14>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xcc) from [<c0272c38>] (mutex_lock_nested+0x24/0x35c) [<c0272c38>] (mutex_lock_nested+0x24/0x35c) from [<c01b237c>] (mdiobus_read+0x44/0x70) [<c01b237c>] (mdiobus_read+0x44/0x70) from [<c01b0c64>] (phy_mii_ioctl+0x4c/0x138) [<c01b0c64>] (phy_mii_ioctl+0x4c/0x138) from [<c01b34fc>] (stmmac_ioctl+0x5c/0x78) [<c01b34fc>] (stmmac_ioctl+0x5c/0x78) from [<c01fcec8>] (dev_ifsioc+0x2a4/0x2c8) [<c01fcec8>] (dev_ifsioc+0x2a4/0x2c8) from [<c01fd81c>] (dev_ioctl+0x560/0x674) [<c01fd81c>] (dev_ioctl+0x560/0x674) from [<c00c36e0>] (vfs_ioctl+0x2c/0x8c) [<c00c36e0>] (vfs_ioctl+0x2c/0x8c) from [<c00c4130>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0x530/0x578) [<c00c4130>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0x530/0x578) from [<c00c41ac>] (sys_ioctl+0x34/0x54) [<c00c41ac>] (sys_ioctl+0x34/0x54) from [<c0028aa0>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x2c) Signed-off-by: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@st.com> Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Cavallaro <peppe.cavallaro@st.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-17stmmac: parameters auto-tuning through HW cap regGiuseppe CAVALLARO
New GMAC devices (newer than the databook 3.50a) have the HW capability register that provides which features are actually supported by the hardware. On old devices many information have to be passed through the platform, for example: enhanced descriptor structure, TX COE etc. These are mandatory to properly configure the driver. This remains still valid because the driver has to support old Synopsys devices but now it's also able to override them using the values from the HW capability register if supported.

2011-11-17powerpc/signal32: Fix sigset_t conversion when copying to userWill Deacon
On PPC64, put_sigset_t converts a sigset_t to a compat_sigset_t before copying it to userspace. There is a typo in the case that we have 4 words to copy, meaning that we corrupt the compat_sigset_t. It appears that _NSIG_WORDS can't be greater than 2 at the moment so this code is probably always optimised away anyway.

2011-11-17powerpc: Fix atomic_xxx_return barrier semanticsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt document requires that atomic operations that return a value act as a memory barrier both before and after the actual atomic operation. Our current implementation doesn't guarantee this. More specifically, while a load following the isync can not be issued before stwcx. has completed, that completion doesn't architecturally means that the result of stwcx. is visible to other processors (or any previous stores for that matter) (typically, the other processors L1 caches can still hold the old value). This has caused an actual crash in RCU torture testing on Power 7 This fixes it by changing those atomic ops to use new macros instead of RELEASE/ACQUIRE barriers, called ATOMIC_ENTRY and ATMOIC_EXIT barriers, which are then defined respectively to lwsync and sync. I haven't had a chance to measure the performance impact (or rather what I measured with kernel compiles is in the noise, I yet have to find a more precise benchmark) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Paul E.

2011-11-17powerpc: Remove buggy 9-year-old test for binutils < 2.12.1Kyle Moffett
Recent binutils refuses to assemble AltiVec opcodes when in e500/SPE mode, as some of those opcodes alias the "SPE" instructions. This triggers an ancient binutils version check even when building a kernel with CONFIG_ALTIVEC disabled. In theory, the check could be conditionalized on CONFIG_ALTIVEC, but in practice it has long outlived its utility. It is virtually impossible to find binutils older than 2.12.1 (released 2002) in the wild anymore. Even ancient RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 has binutils-2.14. To fix the kernel build when done natively on e500 systems with this new binutils, the test is simply removed.

2011-11-17powerpc/book3e-64: Fix debug support for userspaceKumar Gala
With the introduction of CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS user space debug is broken on Book-E 64-bit parts that support delayed debug events. When switch_booke_debug_regs() sets DBCR0 we'll start getting debug events as MSR_DE is also set and we aren't able to handle debug events from kernel space. We can remove the hack that always enables MSR_DE and loads up DBCR0 and just utilize switch_booke_debug_regs() to get user space debug working again. We still need to handle critical/debug exception stacks & proper save/restore of state for those exception levles to support debug events from kernel space like we have on 32-bit.

2011-11-16encrypted-keys: module build fixesMimi Zohar
Encrypted keys are encrypted/decrypted using either a trusted or user-defined key type, which is referred to as the 'master' key. The master key may be of type trusted iff the trusted key is builtin or both the trusted key and encrypted keys are built as modules. This patch resolves the build dependency problem. - Use "masterkey-$(CONFIG_TRUSTED_KEYS)-$(CONFIG_ENCRYPTED_KEYS)" construct to encapsulate the above logic. (Suggested by Dimtry Kasatkin.) - Fixing the encrypted-keys Makefile, results in a module name change from encrypted.ko to encrypted-keys.ko. - Add module dependency for request_trusted_key() definition Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com>
