2012-06-07ARM i.MX imx21ads: Fix overlapping static i/o mappingsJaccon Bastiaansen1-1/+1
The statically defined I/O memory regions for the i.MX21 on chip peripherals and the on board I/O peripherals of the i.MX21ADS board overlap. This results in a kernel crash during startup. This is fixed by reducing the memory range for the on board I/O peripherals to the actually required range.

2012-06-07ARM: imx6: exit coherency when shutting down a cpuShawn Guo1-1/+41
There is a system hang issue on imx6q which can easily be seen with running a cpu hotplug stress testing (hotplug secondary cores from user space via sysfs interface for thousands iterations). It turns out that the issue is caused by coherency of the cpu that is being shut down. When shutting down a cpu, we need to have the cpu exit coherency to prevent it from receiving cache, TLB, or BTB maintenance operations broadcast by other CPUs in the cluster. Copy cpu_enter_lowpower() and cpu_leave_lowpower() from mach-vexpress to have coherency properly handled in platform_cpu_die(), thus fix the issue.

2012-06-04ARM i.MX pllv2: make round_rate accurateSascha Hauer1-24/+54
in round_rate we made the assumption that we can set arbitrary frequencies and thus returned the input rate. This is not correct, for certain frequencies after setting a frequency with set_rate, recalc_rate will return different values. To fix this, introduce set_rate/recalc_rate functions which work on variables instead of registers directly. This way we can call these in round_rate to get the exact rate which we would get if we call set_rate with this value. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
2012-06-04ARM i.MX pllv2: use standard register set unconditionallySascha Hauer1-24/+11
The i.MX5 PLL has two different register sets for setting the rate. One is used for the standard case and and is used for DVFS. Which one of them is used depends on a hardware input of the PLL. Current implementation reads back from the hardware which setting is used. This is bogus: If we ever want to implement DVFS we have to program both register sets and not only the one which happens to be used at the moment. For now, just use the standard register set uncondionally. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

2012-06-03dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadataJoe Thornber5-11/+193
This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

2012-06-03dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg initMikulas Patocka1-9/+17
After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to the device. Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

2012-06-03dm mpath: delay retry of bypassed pgMike Christie1-2/+6
If I/O needs retrying and only bypassed priority groups are available, set the pg_init_delay_retry flag to wait before retrying. If, for example, the reason for the bypass is that the controller is getting reset or there is a firmware upgrade happening, retrying right away would cause a flood of log messages and retries for what could be a few seconds or even several minutes.

The config options in the Kconfig file (with _CODEPAGE_ in the name) didn't match the config option name in the Makefile (no _CODEPAGE_). And both of them were of the hard-to-read MACXYZZY variety, which made them hard to parse for normal humans: MACROMAN easily reads as "macro man", not as "Mac Roman".

2012-06-01x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32H.J. Lu1-6/+0
When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of user_regs_struct instead. Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to kernel.

2012-06-01cipso: handle CIPSO options correctly when NetLabel is disabledPaul Moore1-1/+28
When NetLabel is not enabled, e.g. CONFIG_NETLABEL=n, and the system receives a CIPSO tagged packet it is dropped (cipso_v4_validate() returns non-zero). In most cases this is the correct and desired behavior, however, in the case where we are simply forwarding the traffic, e.g. acting as a network bridge, this becomes a problem. This patch fixes the forwarding problem by providing the basic CIPSO validation code directly in ip_options_compile() without the need for the NetLabel or CIPSO code. The new validation code can not perform any of the CIPSO option label/value verification that cipso_v4_validate() does, but it can verify the basic CIPSO option format. The behavior when NetLabel is enabled is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-06-01x86: get rid of calling do_notify_resume() when returning to kernel modeAl Viro2-13/+10
If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop. It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume() and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in do_signal()... Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm glue takes care of that.

Move the test for kernel mode processing from do_signal() into entry.S to also prevent system call exit tracing and userspace resumption notification handling happening when returning from kernel exceptions.

2012-06-01new helper: signal_delivered()Al Viro34-83/+47
Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one). I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number + siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one, signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() - take one).

Only 3 out of 63 do not. Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(), added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched open-coded instances to it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
