First one is Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted. The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big chunk of physically contiguous memory. For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles: - 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator': http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/ - 'CMA and ARM': http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/ - 'A deep dive into CMA': http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/ - and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous versions: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204 The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the core, common code. The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework. This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware. For more information please refer to the following thread: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."

| * | | | | ARM: integrate CMA with DMA-mapping subsystemMarek Szyprowski2012-05-21

By default a global CMA area is used, but specific devices are allowed to have their private memory areas if required (they can be created with dma_declare_contiguous() function during board initialisation). Contiguous memory areas reserved for DMA are remapped with 2-level page tables on boot. Once a buffer is requested, a low memory kernel mapping is updated to to match requested memory access type. GFP_ATOMIC allocations are performed from special pool which is created early during boot. This way remapping page attributes is not needed on allocation time. CMA has been enabled unconditionally for ARMv6+ systems.

Highlights: - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe. - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe. - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared uids remains the same. - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or better than it is today. - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or operationally with the user namespace enabled. - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1 billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to 164ns per stat operation). - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value. Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause entertaining failures in userspace. - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails. I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and handle the case where setuid fails. - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we can't map. - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities. My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

Rather than having almost every platform specify the standard swizzle function, make this the default when no swizzle function is supplied. Therefore, a swizzle function only needs to be provided when there is something exceptional which needs to be handled. This gets rid of the swizzle initializer from 47 files, and leaves us with just two platforms specifying a swizzle function: ARM Integrator and Chalice CATS.

This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings but be missing all dynamic mappings. If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually not affected because the offending console is suspended. Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem. A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.

This function returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate whether irq_data.affinity was updated. If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons. This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the affinity of an interrupt.

Unfortunately, this isn't enough to reboot the cores into a new kernel (since they are just executing a cpu_relax loop somewhere in memory) so we make use of platform_cpu_kill, part of the CPU hotplug implementation, to place the cores somewhere safe. This function expects to be called on the killing CPU for each core that it takes out. This patch moves the platform_cpu_kill callback out of the IPI handler and into smp_send_stop, therefore ensuring that it executes on the killing CPU rather than on the victim, matching what the hotplug code requires.

| | * | ARM: local timers: Add A15 architected timer supportMarc Zyngier2012-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the A15 generic timer and clocksource. As the timer generates interrupts on a different PPI depending on the execution mode (normal or secure), it is possible to register two different PPIs.

| | * | ARM: local timers: reserve local_timer_register() to SMPMarc Zyngier2012-04-27
| |/ / |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When running an SMP_ON_UP enabled kernel on UP, or with nosmp passed to the kernel, we want to be able to detect that a local timer is not going to be used (local timers are only used on SMP platforms), so we could register it as a global timer instead. Return -ENXIO when the above case is detected. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

Linus Walleij says: | My bad, was because the initial patch was submitted march 9th before | these fixes were merged: | http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=133159655513844&w=2 | | It was pending for a while in Russell's patch tracker and I | rebased it to -rc2 without paying enough attention to recent | related scheduler fixes ... lesson learned.
