2012-04-15ARM: 7384/1: ThumbEE: Disable userspace TEEHBR access for !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEEJonathan Austin1-0/+12
Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot jails. This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to access TEEHBR.

The merging of commits 1b6ba46b ("ARM: LPAE: MMU setup for the 3-level page table format") and b4244738 ("ARM: 7202/1: Add Cortex-A7 proc info") during the merge window ended up putting the Cortex-A7 proc_info into a code block guarded by !CONFIG_ARM_LPAE.

2011-12-23ARM: 7197/1: errata: Remove SMP dependency for erratum 751472Dave Martin1-2/+4
Activation conditions for a workaround should not be encoded in the workaround's direct dependencies if this makes otherwise reasonable configuration choices impossible. This patches uses the SMP/UP patching facilities instead to compile out the workaround if the configuration means that it is definitely not needed. This means that configs for buggy silicon can simply select ARM_ERRATA_751472, without preventing a UP kernel from being built or duplicatiing knowledge about when to activate the workaround. This seems the correct way to do things, because the erratum is a property of the silicon, irrespective of what the kernel config happens to be.

This patch adds the MMU initialisation for the LPAE page table format. The swapper_pg_dir size with LPAE is 5 rather than 4 pages.

This reverts commit 52af9c6cd863fe37d1103035ec7ee22ac1296458. Will Deacon reports that: In 52af9c6c ("ARM: 6943/1: mm: use TTBR1 instead of reserved context ID") I updated the ASID rollover code to use only the kernel page tables whilst updating the ASID. Unfortunately, the code to restore the user page tables was part of a later patch which isn't yet in mainline, so this leaves the code quite broken. We're also in the process of eliminating __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW from ARM, so lets revert these until we can properly sort out what we're doing with the ARM context switching.

2011-05-26ARM: 6943/1: mm: use TTBR1 instead of reserved context IDWill Deacon1-6/+4
On ARMv7 CPUs that cache first level page table entries (like the Cortex-A15), using a reserved ASID while changing the TTBR or flushing the TLB is unsafe. This is because the CPU may cache the first level entry as the result of a speculative memory access while the reserved ASID is assigned. After the process owning the page tables dies, the memory will be reallocated and may be written with junk values which can be interpreted as global, valid PTEs by the processor. This will result in the TLB being populated with bogus global entries. This patch avoids the use of a reserved context ID in the v7 switch_mm and ASID rollover code by temporarily using the swapper_pg_dir pointed at by TTBR1, which contains only global entries that are not tagged with ASIDs.

2010-11-30ARM: 6501/1: Thumb-2: Correct data alignment for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL in ↵Dave Martin1-2/+2
mm/proc-v7.S Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction. In this specific case, we can achieve the desired alignment by forcing a 32-bit branch instruction using the W() macro, since the assembler location counter is already 32-bit aligned in this case.

2010-11-04ARM: 6384/1: Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUsCatalin Marinas1-2/+3
This patch removes the domain switching functionality via the set_fs and __switch_to functions on cores that have a TLS register. Currently, the ioremap and vmalloc areas share the same level 1 page tables and therefore have the same domain (DOMAIN_KERNEL). When the kernel domain is modified from Client to Manager (via the __set_fs or in the __switch_to function), the XN (eXecute Never) bit is overridden and newer CPUs can speculatively prefetch the ioremap'ed memory. Linux performs the kernel domain switching to allow user-specific functions (copy_to/from_user, get/put_user etc.) to access kernel memory. In order for these functions to work with the kernel domain set to Client, the patch modifies the LDRT/STRT and related instructions to the LDR/STR ones. The user pages access rights are also modified for kernel read-only access rather than read/write so that the copy-on-write mechanism still works. CPU_USE_DOMAINS gets disabled only if the hardware has a TLS register (CPU_32v6K is defined) since writing the TLS value to the high vectors page isn't possible. The user addresses passed to the kernel are checked by the access_ok() function so that they do not point to the kernel space.
