Commit c98929c07a removed the clearing of the FPSCR[31:28] bits from the
vfp_raise_exceptions() function and the new bits are or'ed with the old
FPSCR bits leading to unexpected results (the original commit was
referring to the cumulative bits - FPSCR[4:0]).Reported-by: Tom Hameenanttila

Current behaviour is to generate the IT instruction only for Thumb-2
code. However, the kernel helpers in entry-armv.S are compiled to ARM in
a unified syntax file (if THUMB2_KERNEL). Recent compilers warn about
missing IT instruction in unified assembly syntax files. The patch
changes the "-mimplicit-it" gas option to "always".Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas

Here are the sparc bits to remove TIF_ABI_PENDING now that

Now that the previous commit made it possible to do the personality
setting at the point of no return, we do just that for ELF binaries.
And suddenly all the reasons for that insane TIF_ABI_PENDING bit go
away, and we can just make SET_PERSONALITY() just do the obvious thing
for a 32-bit compat process.Everything becomes much more straightforward this way.

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.Signed-off-by: David VomLehn (dvomlehn@cisco.com)

POSIX requires $(()) arithmetic in sh only to have long
arithmetic so on 32-bit sh binaries might do only 32-bit arithmetic but
the arithmetic done in arch/mips/boot/compressed/Makefile needs 64-bit.I play with the AR7 platform, so VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS is
0xffffffff94100000, and for an example 4MiB kernel
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS is made out to be:
----
alex@berk:~$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
ffffffff94500000
alex@berk:~$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0xffffffff94100000 + 0x400000))'
80000000003fffff
----The former is obviously correct whilst the later breaks things royally.
Fortunately working with only the lower 32bit's works for both bash and
dash:
----
$ bash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
$ dash -c 'printf "%x\n" $((0x94100000 + 0x400000))'
94500000
----So, we can split the original 64bit string to two parts, and only
calculate the low 32bit part, which is big enough (1GiB kernel sizes
anyone?) for a normal Linux kernel image file, now, we calculate the
VMLINUZ_LOAD_ADDRESS like this:1. if present, append top 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS" as a prefix
2. get the sum of the low 32bit of VMLINUX_LOAD_ADDRESS + VMLINUX_SIZEThis patch fixes vmlinuz kernel builds on systems where only a
32bit-only math shell is available.Patch Changelog:
Version 2
- simplified method by using 'expr' for 'substr' and making it work
with dash once again

kvm_handle_sie_intercept uses a jump table to get the intercept handler
for a SIE intercept. Static code analysis revealed a potential problem:
the intercept_funcs jump table was defined to contain (0x48 >> 2) entries,
but we only checked for code > 0x48 which would cause an off-by-one
array overflow if code == 0x48.Use the compiler and ARRAY_SIZE to automatically set the limits.

When we queue an interrupt to the local apic, we set the IRR before the TMR.
The vcpu can pick up the IRR and inject the interrupt before setting the TMR,
and perhaps even EOI it, causing incorrect behaviour.The race is really insignificant since it can only occur on the first
interrupt (usually following interrupts will not change TMR), but it's better
closed than open.Fixed by reordering setting the TMR vs IRR.

This patch fixes power LED blinking and power-off on DNS-323 rev. B1.
GPIO pin 3 has to be set to 1 to stop power LED blinking and to allow the LED to be controlled via leds-gpio. This pin has to be also set to 1 for power-off to work.

CONFIG_X86_CPU_DEBUG, which provides some parsed versions of the x86
CPU configuration via debugfs, has caused boot failures on real
hardware. The value of this feature has been marginal at best, as all
this information is already available to userspace via generic
interfaces.Causes crashes that have not been fixed + minimal utility -> remove.
See the referenced LKML thread for more information.

Commit d1c84f79a6ba992dc01e312c44a21496303874d6
leads to a regression when microcode_amd.c is compiled into the kernel.
It causes a big boot delay because the firmware is not available.
See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126267290920060It also renders the reload sysfs attribute useless.
Fixing this is too intrusive for an -rc5 kernel.Thus I'd like to restore the microcode loading behaviour of kernel

nodes_possible_map does not currently include nodes that have SRAT
entries that are all ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE since the bit is
cleared in nodes_parsed if it does not have an online address range.Unequivocally setting the bit in nodes_parsed is insufficient since
existing code, such as acpi_get_nodes(), assumes all nodes in the map
have online address ranges. In fact, all code using nodes_parsed
assumes such nodes represent an address range of online memory.nodes_possible_map is created by unioning nodes_parsed and
cpu_nodes_parsed; the former represents nodes with online memory and
the latter represents memoryless nodes. We now set the bit for
hotpluggable nodes in cpu_nodes_parsed so that it also gets set in
nodes_possible_map.[ hpa: Haicheng Li points out that this makes the naming of the
variable cpu_nodes_parsed somewhat counterintuitive. However, leave
it as is in the interest of keeping the pure bug fix patch small. ]Signed-off-by: David Rientjes
