* ARM: 5793/1: ARM: Check put_user fail in do_signal when enable OABI_COMPATJean PIHET2009-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using OABI, the call to put_user in do_signal can fail causing the calling app to hang. The solution is to check if put_user fails and force the app to seg fault in that case. Tested with multiple sleeping apps/threads (using the nanosleep syscall) and suspend/resume.

* ARM: Fix signal restart issues with NX and OABI compatRussell King2009-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The signal restarting code was placed on the user stack when OABI compatibility is enabled. Unfortunately, with an EABI NX executable, this results in an attempt to run code from the non-executable stack, which segfaults the application. Fix this by placing the code in the vectors page, along side the signal return code, and directing the application to that code.

This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __cpuinit annotation of secondary_start_kernel() so it may be used outside an init section. Sam says: > The annotation of cpu_die() is wrong. > To be annotated __cpuexit the function shall: > - be used in exit context and only in exit context with HOTPLUG_CPU=n > - be used outside exit context with HOTPLUG_CPU=y So, this also means __cpu_disable(), __cpu_die() and twd_timer_stop() are also wrong.

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

| * | ARM: 5715/1: Make kprobes unregistration SMP safeFrederic Riss2009-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ARM kprobes use an illegal instruction to trigger kprobes. In the current implementation, there's a race between the unregistration of a kprobe and the illegal instruction exception handler if they run at the same time on different cores. When reading the value of the undefined instruction, the exception handler might get the original legal instruction as just patched concurrently by arch_disarm_kprobe(). When this happen the kprobe handler won't run, and thus the exception handler will oops because it believe it just hit an undefined instruction in kernel space. The following patch synchronizes the code patching in the kprobes unregistration using stop_machine and thus avoids the above race.

| * | Thumb-2: Correctly handle undefined instructions in the kernelCatalin Marinas2009-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | VFP instructions in the kernel may trigger undefined exceptions if VFP hardware is not present. This patch corrects the loading of such Thumb-2 instructions. It also marks the "no_fp" label as a function so that the linker generate a Thumb address.

| * | Clear the exclusive monitor when returning from an exceptionCatalin Marinas2009-09-18
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch adds a CLREX or dummy STREX to the exception return path. This is needed because several atomic/locking operations use a pair of LDREX/STREXEQ and the EQ condition may not always be satisfied. This would leave the exclusive monitor status set and may cause problems with atomic/locking operations in the interrupted code. With this patch, the atomic_set() operation can be a simple STR instruction (on SMP systems, the global exclusive monitor is cleared by STR anyway). Clearing the exclusive monitor during context switch is no longer needed as this is handled by the exception return path anyway.
