  • Here are the at91 specific files dedicated to the at91sam9g45 series. They
    mimic the traditional at91 way of managing chips & boards.

    The first board that embeds at91sam9g45 chip is the AT91SAM9G45-EKES. In
    the future, the main board for this 9g45 series will be the
    AT91SAM9M10G45-EK (I choose this last name for the board file).

    Simple drivers are enabled in _devices and board- files. Newer peripheral
    support will be added in future patches.

    Incuded peripherals support (for now):
    - USART
    - SPI
    - Ethernet
    - NAND flash
    - LCD
    - gpio/joystick/buttons
    - leds and pwm

  • AT91sam9g45 series is an ARM 926ej-s SOC family clocked at 400/133MHz.
    It embedds USB high speed host and device, LCD, DDR2 RAM, and a full set of
    peripherals.

    Here is the basic header file support for this product series.

  • Add the at91sam9g45 series support to the AT91 generic clock file.
    This takes care of the particularities of the PMC for this series.
    It also takes advantage of the management by functionalities of
    those PLLs and clocks.

  • Remove at91_gpiolib_request. It returns -EPERM if a request pin is not
    in GPIO mode, however we want to be able to gpio_request alternative
    function pins to reserve them, and in some cases we need to be able to
    use the gpiolib functions on alternative function pins.

  • This reverts commit 9e9f46c44e487af0a82eb61b624553e2f7118f5b.

    Quoting from the commit message:

    "At this point, it seems to solve more problems than it causes, so let's
    try using it by default. It's an easy revert if it ends up causing
    trouble."

    And guess what? The _CRS code causes trouble.

  • Even though one cannot make use of the audit watch code without
    CONFIG_AUDIT_SYSCALL the spaghetti nature of the audit code means that
    the audit rule filtering requires that it at least be compiled.

    Thus build the audit_watch code when we build auditfilter like it was
    before cfcad62c74abfef83762dc05a556d21bdf3980a2

    Clearly this is a point of potential future cleanup..

  • * 'futexes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
    futex: Fix the write access fault problem for real

    Linus Torvalds
     
  • commit 64d1304a64 (futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which
    modify user space data) did address only half of the problem of write
    access faults.

    The patch was made on two wrong assumptions:

    1) access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE,...) would actually check write access.

    On x86 it does _NOT_. It's a pure address range check.

    2) a RW mapped region can not go away under us.

    That's wrong as well. Nobody can prevent another thread to call
    mprotect(PROT_READ) on that region where the futex resides. If that
    call hits between the get_user_pages_fast() verification and the
    actual write access in the atomic region we are toast again.

    The solution is to not rely on access_ok and get_user() for any write
    access related fault on private and shared futexes. Instead we need to
    fault it in with verification of write access.

    There is no generic non destructive write mechanism which would fault
    the user page in trough a #PF, but as we already know that we will
    fault we can as well call get_user_pages() directly and avoid the #PF
    overhead.

    If get_user_pages() returns -EFAULT we know that we can not fix it
    anymore and need to bail out to user space.

    Remove a bunch of confusing comments on this issue as well.

  • SLUB uses higher order allocations by default but falls back to small
    orders under memory pressure. Make sure the GFP mask used in the initial
    allocation doesn't include __GFP_NOFAIL.

  • Traditionally, we never failed small orders (even regardless of any
    __GFP_NOFAIL flags), and slab will allocate order-1 allocations even for
    small allocations that could fit in a single page (in order to avoid
    excessive fragmentation).

    Maybe we should remove this warning entirely, but before making that
    judgement, at least limit it to bigger allocations.

  • The existing code had the following race:

    Thread-1 Thread-2

    inc/read in_use
    inc/read in_use
    inc tx_free_list[qos].len
    inc tx_free_list[qos].len

    The actual in_use value was incremented twice, but thread-1 is going
    to free memory based on its stale value, and will free one too many
    times. The result is that memory is freed back to the kernel while
    its packet is still in the transmit buffer. If the memory is
    overwritten before it is transmitted, the hardware will put a valid
    checksum on it and send it out (just like it does with good packets).
    If by chance the TCP flags are clobbered but not the addresses or
    ports, the result can be a broken TCP stream.

    The fix is to track the number of freed packets in a single location
    (a Fetch-and-Add Unit register). That way it can never get out of sync
    with itself.

    We try to free up to MAX_SKB_TO_FREE (currently 10) buffers at a time.
    If fewer are available we adjust the free count with the difference.
    The action of claiming buffers to free is atomic so two threads cannot
    claim the same buffers.

    Also compensate for the removal of struct sk_buff's dst field.

    was moved to ethernet.c and ethernet-common.{c,h} are removed.

  • The SMP implementation of suspend and hibernate depends on CPU hotplugging.
    In the past we didn't have CPU hotplug so suspend and hibernation were not
    possible on SMP systems.

  • Each platform has to add support for CPU hotplugging itself by providing
    suitable definitions for the cpu_disable and cpu_die of the smp_ops
    methods and setting SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU. A platform should only set
    SYS_SUPPORTS_HOTPLUG_CPU once all it's smp_ops definitions have the
    necessary changes. This patch contains the changes to the dummy smp_ops
    definition for uni-processor systems.

  • We can't perform any flushes on SMP from swsusp_arch_resume because
    interrupts are disabled. A cross-CPU flush is unnecessary anyway
    because all but the local CPU have already been disabled. A local
    flush is not needed either because we didn't change any mappings. So
    just delete the code.

    which of course is fragile. uses smp_processor_id()
    only in macros and including smp.h there leads to an include loop, so
