2006-09-19Revert mmiocfg heuristics and blacklist changesLinus Torvalds6-55/+82
This reverts commits 11012d419cfc0e0f78ca356aca03674217910124 and 40dd2d20f220eda1cd0da8ea3f0f9db8971ba237, which allowed us to use the MMIO accesses for PCI config cycles even without the area being marked reserved in the e820 memory tables. Those changes were needed for EFI-environment Intel macs, but broke some newer Intel 965 boards, so for now it's better to revert to our old 2.6.17 behaviour and at least avoid introducing any new breakage. Andi Kleen has a set of patches that work with both EFI and the broken Intel 965 boards, which will be applied once they get wider testing.

2006-09-13[POWERPC] Fix G5 DART (IOMMU) race causing occasional data corruptionBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-1/+6
It seems that the occasional data corruption observed with the tg3 driver wasn't due to missing barriers after all, but rather seems to be due to the DART (= IOMMU) in the U4 northbridge reading stale IOMMU table entries from memory due to a race. This fixes it by making the CPU read the entry back from memory before using it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-09-13[POWERPC] Fix MMIO ops to provide expected barrier behaviourPaul Mackerras1-24/+25
This changes the writeX family of functions to have a sync instruction before the MMIO store rather than after, because the generally expected behaviour is that the device receiving the MMIO store can be guaranteed to see the effects of any preceding writes to normal memory. To preserve ordering between writeX and readX, and to preserve ordering between preceding stores and the readX, the readX family of functions have had an sync added before the load. Although writeX followed by spin_unlock is not officially guaranteed to keep the writeX inside the spin-locked region unless an mmiowb() is used, there are currently drivers that depend on the previous behaviour on powerpc, which was that the mmiowb wasn't actually required. Therefore we have a per-cpu flag that is set by writeX, cleared by __raw_spin_lock and mmiowb, and tested by __raw_spin_unlock. If it is set, __raw_spin_unlock does a sync and clears it. This changes both 32-bit and 64-bit readX/writeX. 32-bit already has a sync in __raw_spin_unlock (since lwsync doesn't exist on 32-bit), and thus doesn't need the per-cpu flag. Tested on G5 (PPC970) and POWER5. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-09-12sh64: Drop deprecated ISA tuning for legacy toolchains.Paul Mundt1-1/+0
The original sh64 toolchains required that we tune the ISA level accordingly to not have head.S/entry.S blow up. With current toolchains, this is no longer the case, and the syntax magically changed as well, causing all current toolchains to die a horrible death. Incidentally, code generation in other parts of the kernel is now significantly complex enough that none of the older toolchains make it very far these days, so there's not even any point in preserving legacy compatability via as-option. This fixes a long-standing issue, as noted here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/5/223 Though at the time the current toolchains were too broken to make adjusting the tuning worthwhile.

2006-09-08[PATCH] IA64,sparc: local DoS with corrupted ELFsKirill Korotaev3-40/+51
This prevents cross-region mappings on IA64 and SPARC which could lead to system crash. They were correctly trapped for normal mmap() calls, but not for the kernel internal calls generated by executable loading. This code just moves the architecture-specific cross-region checks into an arch-specific "arch_mmap_check()" macro, and defines that for the architectures that needed it (ia64, sparc and sparc64). Architectures that don't have any special requirements can just ignore the new cross-region check, since the mmap() code will just notice on its own when the macro isn't defined.

2006-09-02[ARM] 3762/1: Fix ptrace cache coherency bug for ARM1136 VIPT nonaliasing ↵George G. Davis1-0/+26
Harvard caches Patch from George G. Davis Resolve ARM1136 VIPT non-aliasing cache coherency issues observed when using ptrace to set breakpoints and cleanup copy_{to,from}_user_page() while we're here as requested by Russell King because "it's also far too heavy on non-v6 CPUs". NOTES: 1. Only access_process_vm() calls copy_{to,from}_user_page(). 2. access_process_vm() calls get_user_pages() to pin down the "page". 3. get_user_pages() calls flush_dcache_page(page) which ensures cache coherency between kernel and userspace mappings of "page". However flush_dcache_page(page) may not invalidate I-Cache over this range for all cases, specifically, I-Cache is not invalidated for the VIPT non-aliasing case. So memory is consistent between kernel and user space mappings of "page" but I-Cache may still be hot over this range. IOW, we don't have to worry about flush_cache_page() before memcpy(). 4. Now, for the copy_to_user_page() case, after memcpy(), we must flush the caches so memory is consistent with kernel cache entries and invalidate the I-Cache if this mm region is executable. We don't need to do anything after memcpy() for the copy_from_user_page() case since kernel cache entries will be invalidated via the same process above if we access "page" again. The flush_ptrace_access() function (borrowed from SPARC64 implementation) is added to handle cache flushing after memcpy() for the copy_to_user_page() case. Signed-off-by: George G.

2006-09-01[PATCH] Fix faulty HPET clocksource usage (fix for bug #7062)john stultz1-1/+1
Apparently some systems export valid HPET addresses, but hpet_enable() fails. Then when the HPET clocksource starts up, it only checks for a valid HPET address, and the result is a system where time does not advance. See http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7062 for details. This patch just makes sure we better check that the HPET is functional before registering the HPET clocksource.

2006-08-31[ARM] 3764/1: S3C24XX: change type naming to kernel styleBen Dooks1-44/+44
Patch from Ben Dooks The type naming in the s3c24xx dma code is riddled with typedefs creating _t types, from the code import from 2.4 which is contrary to the current Kernel coding style. This patch cleans this up, removing the typedefs and and fixing up the resultant code changes. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
