* ARM: 6401/1: plug a race in the alignment trap handlerNicolas Pitre2010-09-231-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the policy for user space is to ignore misaligned accesses from user space, the processor then performs a documented rotation on the accessed data. This is the result of the access being trapped, and the kernel disabling the alignment trap before returning to user space again. In kernel space we always want misaligned accesses to be fixed up. This is enforced by always re-enabling the alignment trap on every entry into kernel space from user space. No such re-enabling is performed when an exception occurs while already in kernel space as the alignment trap is always supposed to be enabled in that case. There is however a small race window when a misaligned access in user space is trapped and the alignment trap disabled, but the CPU didn't return to user space just yet. Any exception would be entered from kernel space at that point and the kernel would then execute with the alignment trap disabled. Thanks to Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> for providing a test module that made this issue reproducible.

* ARM: 6268/1: ARMv6K and ARMv7 use fault statuses 3 and 6 as Access Flag faultKirill A. Shutemov2010-07-271-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | Statuses 3 (0b00011) and 6 (0x00110) of DFSR are Access Flags faults on ARMv6K and ARMv7. Let's patch fsr_info[] at runtime if we are on ARMv7 or later. Unfortunately, we don't have runtime check for 'K' extension, so we can't check for it. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

* | ARM: convert /proc/cpu/aligment to seq_fileAlexey Dobriyan2010-05-151-27/+26
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert code away from ->read_proc/->write_proc interfaces. Switch to proc_create()/proc_create_data() which makes addition of proc entries reliable wrt NULL ->proc_fops, NULL ->data and so on. Problem with ->read_proc et al is described here commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba "Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries" This patch is part of an effort to remove the old simple procfs PAGE_SIZE buffer interface.

* | ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel bootRussell King2010-02-201-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during boot. This can prevent systems booting properly. There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be booted. So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via the kernel command line. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

| * [ARM] Fix alignment fault handling for ARMv6 and later CPUsRussell King2008-12-071-3/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ARMv6 and later CPUs, it is possible for userspace processes to get stuck on a misaligned load or store due to the "ignore fault" setting; unlike previous CPUs, retrying the instruction without the 'A' bit set does not always cause the load to succeed. We have no real option but to default to fixing up alignment faults on these CPUs, and having the CPU fix up those misaligned accesses which it can.

* Use helpers to obtain task pid in printks (arch code)Alexey Dobriyan2007-10-191-1/+1

It took some time to cross-compile it, but hopefully these are all the printks in arch code.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+756
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
