* sparc: Fix resource flags for PCI children in OF device tree.David S. Miller2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | When a device is under an EBUS or ISA bus, the resource flags don't get set properly. Fix this by re-evaluating the resource flags at each level of bus as we apply ranges on the way to the root. And let PCI override any existing flags setting, but don't let the default flags calculator make such overrides. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* flag parameters: pipeUlrich Drepper2008-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified implementation but that's up to them. The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler. I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed. The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #ifndef __NR_pipe2 # ifdef __x86_64__ # define __NR_pipe2 293 # elif defined __i386__ # define __NR_pipe2 331 # else # error "need __NR_pipe2" # endif #endif int main (void) { int fd[2]; if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, 0) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(0) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { printf ("pipe2(0) set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); if (syscall (__NR_pipe2, fd, O_CLOEXEC) != 0) { puts ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { int coe = fcntl (fd[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { printf ("pipe2(O_CLOEXEC) does not set close-on-exit for fd[%d]\n", i); return 1; } } close (fd[0]); close (fd[1]); puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com> Cc: <linux-arch@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* sparc: Fix debugger syscall restart interactions.David S. Miller2008-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So, forever, we've had this ptrace_signal_deliver implementation which tries to handle all of the nasties that can occur when the debugger looks at a process about to take a signal. It's meant to address all of these issues inside of the kernel so that the debugger need not be mindful of such things. Problem is, this doesn't work. The idea was that we should do the syscall restart business first, so that the debugger captures that state. Otherwise, if the debugger for example saves the child's state, makes the child execute something else, then restores the saved state, we won't handle the syscall restart properly because we lose the "we're in a syscall" state. The code here worked for most cases, but if the debugger actually passes the signal through to the child unaltered, it's possible that we would do a syscall restart when we shouldn't have. In particular this breaks the case of debugging a process under a gdb which is being debugged by yet another gdb. gdb uses sigsuspend to wait for SIGCHLD of the inferior, but if gdb itself is being debugged by a top-level gdb we get a ptrace_stop(). The top-level gdb does a PTRACE_CONT with SIGCHLD to let the inferior gdb see the signal. But ptrace_signal_deliver() assumed the debugger would cancel out the signal and therefore did a syscall restart, because the return error was ERESTARTNOHAND. Fix this by simply making ptrace_signal_deliver() a nop, and providing a way for the debugger to control system call restarting properly: 1) Report a "in syscall" software bit in regs->{tstate,psr}. It is set early on in trap entry to a system call and is fully visible to the debugger via ptrace() and regsets. 2) Test this bit right before doing a syscall restart. We have to do a final recheck right after get_signal_to_deliver() in case the debugger cleared the bit during ptrace_stop(). 3) Clear the bit in trap return so we don't accidently try to set that bit in the real register. As a result we also get a ptrace_{is,clear}_syscall() for sparc32 just like sparc64 has. M68K has this same exact bug, and is now the only other user of the ptrace_signal_deliver hook. It needs to be fixed in the same exact way as sparc. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* sparc: Fix ptrace() detach.David S. Miller2008-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Forever we had a PTRACE_SUNOS_DETACH which was unconditionally recognized, regardless of the personality of the process. Unfortunately, this value is what ended up in the GLIBC sys/ptrace.h header file on sparc as PTRACE_DETACH and PT_DETACH. So continue to recognize this old value. Luckily, it doesn't conflict with anything we actually care about. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* sparc: Fix SA_ONSTACK signal handling.David S. Miller2008-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to be more liberal about the alignment of the buffer given to us by sigaltstack(). The user should not need to be mindful of all of the alignment constraints we have for the stack frame. This mirrors how we handle this situation in clone() as well. Also, we align the stack even in non-SA_ONSTACK cases so that signals due to bad stack alignment can be delivered properly. This makes such errors easier to debug and recover from. Finally, add the sanity check x86 has to make sure we won't overflow the signal stack. This fixes glibc testcases nptl/tst-cancel20.c and nptl/tst-cancelx20.c Signed-off-by: David S.

* sparc: Remove old style signal frame support.David S. Miller2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match that of SunOS. By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's needs. Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style signal frame layout in there. The detection mechanism is that we had sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate "new style signal frames please". Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff. In fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever had such binaries to be honest. So let's get rid of this stuff. I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit applications are passing in that negative signal number still. Signed-off-by: David S.

* | xtime_lock vs update_process_timesPeter Zijlstra2008-02-13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit d3d74453c34f8fd87674a8cf5b8a327c68f22e99 ("hrtimer: fixup the HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ fallback") broke several archs, and since only Russell bothered to merge the fix, and Greg to ACK his arch, I'm sending this for merger. I have confirmation that the Alpha bit results in a booting kernel. That leaves: blackfin, frv, sh and sparc untested. The deadlock in question was found by Russell: IRQ handle -> timer_tick() - xtime seqlock held for write -> update_process_times() -> run_local_timers() -> hrtimer_run_queues() -> hrtimer_get_softirq_time() - tries to get a read lock Now, Thomas assures me the fix is trivial, only do_timer() needs to be done under the xtime_lock, and update_process_times() can savely be removed from under it.
