When an NMI goes off and it sees that it preempted the debug stack,
to keep the debug stack safe, it changes the IDT to point to one that
does not modify the stack on breakpoint (to allow breakpoints in NMIs).
But the variable that gets set to know to undo it on exit never gets
cleared on exit. Thus every NMI will reset it on exit the first time
it is done even if it does not need to be reset.

On boot up and module load, it is fine to modify the code directly,
without the use of breakpoints. This is because boot up modification
is done before SMP is initialized, thus the modification is serial,
and module load is done before the module executes.
But after that we must use a SMP safe method to modify running code.
Otherwise, if we are running the function tracer and update its
function (by starting off the stack tracer, or perf tracing)
the change of the function called by the ftrace trampoline is done
directly. If this is being executed on another CPU, that CPU may
take a GPF and crash the kernel.
The breakpoint method is used to change the nops at all the functions, but
the change of the ftrace callback handler itself was still using a
direct modification. If tracing was enabled and the function callback
was changed then another CPU could fault if it was currently calling
the original callback. This modification must use the breakpoint method
too.
Note, the direct method is still used for boot up and module load.

When the function tracer starts modifying the code via breakpoints
it sets a variable (modifying_ftrace_code) to inform the breakpoint
handler to call the ftrace int3 code.
But there's no synchronization between setting this code and the
handler, thus it is possible for the handler to be called on another
CPU before it sees the variable. This will cause a kernel crash as
the int3 handler will not know what to do with it.
I originally added smp_mb()'s to force the visibility of the variable
but H. Peter Anvin suggested that I just make it atomic.

Pull second pile of signal handling patches from Al Viro:
"This one is just task_work_add() series + remaining prereqs for it.
There probably will be another pull request from that tree this
cycle - at least for helpers, to get them out of the way for per-arch
fixes remaining in the tree."
Fix trivial conflict in kernel/irq/manage.c: the merge of Andrew's pile
had brought in commit 97fd75b7b8e0 ("kernel/irq/manage.c: use the
pr_foo() infrastructure to prefix printks") which changed one of the
pr_err() calls that this merge moves around.

While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine
whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are
shared between tasks and restore this state.
The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the
unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one.
One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to
provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such
info considered to be not that good for security reasons.
Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named
'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it --
__NR_kcmp.
It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which
characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of
comparison of files) two file descriptors.
Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only.
At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

kill_off_processes() might miss a valid process, this is because checking
for process->mm is not enough. Process' main thread may exit or detach
its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a valid mm.
To catch this we use find_lock_task_mm(), which walks up all threads and
returns an appropriate task (with task lock held).

Pull Sparc updates from David S. Miller:
1) Remove the idiotic situation wherein Leon was a special case in all
of the TLB/cache handling code.
The worst side effect of this bogosity is that you couldn't build a
kernel with Leon support enabled (to get better build coverage), and
test boot it on a non-LEON cpu.
Leon is, in all core respects, programatically identical to the
32-bit SRMMU. Except that they put the TLB registers in a different
alternate address space location.
Through code patching (for fast paths) and run time checks, this
issue is now a thing of the past.
From Sam Ravnborg.
2) There was a mis-merge of arch/sparc/Kconfig for one of the
clockevents changes that went in, causing 32-bit sparc to start
failing to build.
I merged in your tree to get those clockevents changes (and added a
note to the merge commit) then added Stephen Rothwell's fix for the
merge error.
3) Software quad floating point emulation was not working properly on
more recent Niagara chips, because the way the situation is reported
by the cpu has changed.
Nobody noticed because gcc emits calls to software emulation
routines in glibc.

get_unmapped_area() returns -E... on failure, not 0. Moreover, the
wrapper around it is completely pointless.

* fixes:
ixp4xx: fix compilation by adding gpiolib support
* fixes2:
ARM: LPC32xx: Adjust dts files to gpio dt binding
|
|
The GPIO devicetree binding in 3.5 doesn't register the various LPC32xx GPIO
banks via DT subnodes but always all at once, and changes the gpio referencing
to 3 cells (bank, gpio, flags). This patch adjusts the DTS files to this
binding that was just accepted to the gpio subsystem.

Stub out MSR methods that aren't actually needed. This fixes a crash
as Xen Dom0 on AMD Trinity systems. A bigger patch should be added to
remove the paravirt machinery completely for the methods which
apparently have no users!

Use unsigned long for dealing with jiffies not int. Rename the
callback to something sensible. Use __this_cpu_read/write for
accessing per cpu data.

When boot on sun G5+ with 4T mem, see an overflow in mtrr cleanup as below.
*BAD*gran_size: 2G chunk_size: 2G num_reg: 10 lose cover RAM:
-18014398505283592M
This is because 1<<31 sign extended. Use an unsigned long constant to
fix it. Useful for mem larger than or equal to 4T.
-v2: Use 64bit constant instead of explicit type conversion as suggested
by Yinghai. Description updated too.
