| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CLPS7500 platform has not built since 2.6.22-git7 and there seems to be no interest in fixing it. So, remove the platform support. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

They also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode: * Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle. * Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference vector. Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode as the default. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
* | | | x86: Fix interrupt leak due to migrationMatthew Wilcox2008-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not being used. If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes the interrupt to become unusable. This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded and reloaded repeatedly.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory: if (addr < 0) break; Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value "sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator. Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs). This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

For this purpose it allocates a memory area at the end of each node's memory and maps this area so that it is accessible with virtual addresses belonging to low memory. As a result, if there is high memory, these NUMA-allocated areas are physically located in high memory, although they are mapped to low memory addresses. Our hibernation code does not take that into account and for this reason hibernation fails on all x86_32 systems with CONFIG_NUMA=y and with high memory present. Fix this by adding a special mapping for the NUMA-allocated memory areas to the temporary page tables created during the last phase of resume. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| | * | | | AMD IOMMU: enable device isolation per defaultJoerg Roedel2008-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: makes device isolation the default for AMD IOMMU Some device drivers showed double-free bugs of DMA memory while testing them with AMD IOMMU. If all devices share the same protection domain this can lead to data corruption and data loss. Prevent this by putting each device into its own protection domain per default.

| * | | | | x86: more general identifier for Phoenix BIOSPhilipp Kohlbecher2008-11-18

This patch makes the identification string in the bad_bios_dmi_table more general (following a suggestion by Ingo Molnar), so that both versions are handled. Again, the patched file compiles cleanly and the patch has been tested successfully on my machine.

First allocate the context, then do the other checks. Also, take care with GFP allocations under the ds_lock spinlock. Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

With the patch, I see: checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: Measured 28 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock. Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed Whereas, without the patch syncs pass fine on all CPUs: checking TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: passed. Due to this, TSC is marked unstable, when it is not actually unstable. This is because syncs in check_tsc_wrap() goes away due to this commit. As per the discussion on this thread, correct way to fix this is to add explicit syncs as below?
