2008-09-08sh: kprobes: Fix up race against probe point removal.Paul Mundt1-0/+11
Handle a corner case where another CPU or debugger removes the probe point from underneath us. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2008-09-08sh: kprobes: Fix up a preemption imbalance on jprobe return.Paul Mundt1-0/+1
Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2008-09-08sh: kprobes: Default to NOTIFY_DONE for unhandled debug traps.Paul Mundt1-1/+1
Presently this is doing a force_sig() SIGTRAP, which is already taken care of in the generic code if no one asserts NOTIFY_STOP. Switch the default return to NOTIFY_DONE in the case of unhandled traps, so that the same trap may pass through to other users on the same die chain. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
2008-09-08sh: kprobes: Use trapa #0x3a for breakpoint trap.Paul Mundt2-3/+2
Not all parts support trapa #0xff, so use something within the debug trap range that's accessible on all parts. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-09-08sh: uninline flush_icache_all().Paul Mundt1-1/+1
This uses jump_to_uncached() which is now given the noinline attribute due to the special section mapping. Kill off the inline attribute to fix up compilation failure. Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-09-08sh: remove unnecessary memset after alloc_bootmem_low_pagesMarek Skuczynski1-1/+0
Because alloc_bootmem functions return the allocated memory always zeroed, an additional call of memset on allocated memory is unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Marek Skuczynski <M.Skuczynski@adbglobal.com> Signed-off-by: Carl Shaw <carl.shaw@st.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-09-08sh: Fix an unusual memory initialisation error.Stuart Menefy1-4/+6
This fixes a problems with the set up of Linux memory: - When reserving memory at boot time, the code previously reserved the bottom page of memory, and then from one page up to the end of the bootmap. This had the desired effect, but was strictly speaking wrong, as the one page was actually whatever CONFIG_ZERO_PAGE_OFFSET had been set to.

2008-09-08sh: vmalloc pgtable sync fix.Stuart Menefy1-4/+7
This fixes a problem in the code which copies the vmalloc portion of the kernel's page table into the current user space page table. The addition of the four level page table code breaks on folded page tables, because the pud level is always present (although folded). This updates the code to use the same style of updates for the pud as is used for the pgd level. Signed-off-by: Stuart Menefy <stuart.menefy@st.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

2008-09-06x86: cpu_init(): fix memory leak when using CPU hotplugAndreas Herrmann1-10/+13
Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online. But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for a CPU. Fix is to allocate exception stacks only once -- when the CPU is set online for the first time.

2008-09-06x86: move mtrr cpu cap setting early in early_init_xxxxYinghai Lu3-8/+44
Krzysztof Helt found MTRR is not detected on k6-2 root cause: we moved mtrr_bp_init() early for mtrr trimming, and in early_detect we only read the CPU capability from cpuid, so some cpu doesn't have that bit in cpuid. So we need to add early_init_xxxx to preset those bit before mtrr_bp_init for those earlier cpus. this patch is for v2.6.27 Reported-by: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-09-06clocksource, acpi_pm.c: check for monotonicityDominik Brodowski1-17/+29
The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic timer behaviour. To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.

2008-09-06clocksource, acpi_pm.c: use proper read function also in errata modeDominik Brodowski1-8/+8
On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the ACPI PMTMR fails. On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while (i.e. within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus result. During normal operation we work around this issue, but during initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the hardware is usable. Thanks to Andreas Mohr for spotting this issue.

2008-09-06ntp: fix calculation of the next jiffie to trigger RTC syncMaciej W. Rozycki1-1/+1
We have a bug in the calculation of the next jiffie to trigger the RTC synchronisation. The aim here is to run sync_cmos_clock() as close as possible to the middle of a second. Which means we want this function to be called less than or equal to half a jiffie away from when now.tv_nsec equals 5e8 (500000000). If this is not the case for a given call to the function, for this purpose instead of updating the RTC we calculate the offset in nanoseconds to the next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be equal 5e8. The calculated offset is then converted to jiffies as these are the unit used by the timer. Hovewer timespec_to_jiffies() used here uses a ceil()-type rounding mode, where the resulting value is rounded up. As a result the range of now.tv_nsec when the timer will trigger is from 5e8 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC rather than the desired 5e8 - TICK_NSEC / 2 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2. As a result if for example sync_cmos_clock() happens to be called at the time when now.tv_nsec is between 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2 and 5e8 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC, it will simply be rescheduled HZ jiffies later, falling in the same range of now.tv_nsec again. Similarly for cases offsetted by an integer multiple of TICK_NSEC. This change addresses the problem by subtracting TICK_NSEC / 2 from the nanosecond offset to the next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be equal 5e8, effectively shifting the following rounding in timespec_to_jiffies() so that it produces a rounded-to-nearest result.

2008-09-06x86: HPET: read back compare register before reading counterThomas Gleixner1-0/+7
After fixing the u32 thinko I sill had occasional hickups on ATI chipsets with small deltas. There seems to be a delay between writing the compare register and the transffer to the internal register which triggers the interrupt. Reading back the value makes sure, that it hit the internal match register befor we compare against the counter value. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-09-06x86: HPET fix moronic 32/64bit thinkoThomas Gleixner1-4/+4
We use the HPET only in 32bit mode because: 1) some HPETs are 32bit only 2) on i386 there is no way to read/write the HPET atomic 64bit wide The HPET code unification done by the "moron of the year" did not take into account that unsigned long is different on 32 and 64 bit. This thinko results in a possible endless loop in the clockevents code, when the return comparison fails due to the 64bit/332bit unawareness. unsigned long cnt = (u32) hpet_read() + delta can wrap over 32bit. but the final compare will fail and return -ETIME causing endless loops.

2008-09-06clockevents: broadcast fixup possible waitersThomas Gleixner1-1/+36
Until the C1E patches arrived there where no users of periodic broadcast before switching to oneshot mode. Now we need to trigger a possible waiter for a periodic broadcast when switching to oneshot mode. Otherwise we can starve them for ever. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2008-09-05x86: add NOPL as a synthetic CPU feature bitH. Peter Anvin5-8/+82
The long noops ("NOPL") are supposed to be detected by family >= 6. Unfortunately, several non-Intel x86 implementations, both hardware and software, don't obey this dictum. Instead, probe for NOPL directly by executing a NOPL instruction and see if we get #UD. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2008-09-05x86: boot: stub out unimplemented CPU feature wordsH. Peter Anvin1-4/+4
The CPU feature detection code in the boot code is somewhat minimal, and doesn't include all possible CPUID words. In particular, it doesn't contain the code for CPU feature words 2 (Transmeta), 3 (Linux-specific), 5 (VIA), or 7 (scattered). Zero them out, so we can still set those bits as known at compile time; in particular, this allows creating a Linux-specific NOPL flag and have it required (and therefore resolvable at compile time) in 64-bit mode.

mmc_block_open() increments md->usage although it returns with -EROFS when default mounting a MMC/SD card with write protect switch on.
