MIPS: Send SIGILL for BPOSGE32 in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'

2017-07-27T22:03:29+00:00

commit 7b82c1058ac1f8f8b9f2b8786b1f710a57a870a8 upstream.

Fix commit e50c0a8fa60d ("Support the MIPS32 / MIPS64 DSP ASE.") and
send SIGILL rather than SIGBUS whenever an unimplemented BPOSGE32 DSP
ASE instruction has been encountered in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'
as our Reserved Instruction exception handler would in response to an
attempt to actually execute the instruction.  Sending SIGBUS only makes
sense for the unaligned PC case, since moved to `__compute_return_epc'.
Adjust function documentation accordingly, correct formatting and use
`pr_info' rather than `printk' as the other exit path already does.

alarmtimer: don't rate limit one-shot timers

2017-07-27T22:03:29+00:00

Commit ff86bf0c65f1 ("alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals") sets a
minimum bound on the alarm timer interval.  This minimum bound shouldn't
be applied if the interval is 0.  Otherwise, one-shot timers will be
converted into periodic ones.

spmi: Include OF based modalias in device uevent

2017-07-27T22:03:29+00:00

commit d50daa2af2618dab6d21634e65a5fbcf4ae437d6 upstream.

Include the OF-based modalias in the uevent sent when registering SPMI
devices, so that user space has a chance to autoload the kernel module
for the device.

The ULPI bus can be built as a module, and it will soon be
calling these functions when it supports probing devices from DT.
Export them so they can be used by the ULPI module.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Context-switch EBB registers properly

2017-07-27T22:03:29+00:00

commit ca8efa1df1d15a1795a2da57f9f6aada6ed6b946 upstream.

This adds code to save the values of three SPRs (special-purpose
registers) used by userspace to control event-based branches (EBBs),
which are essentially interrupts that get delivered directly to
userspace.  These registers are loaded up with guest values when
entering the guest, and their values are saved when exiting the
guest, but we were not saving the host values and restoring them
before going back to userspace.

On POWER8 this would only affect userspace programs which explicitly
request the use of EBBs and also use the KVM_RUN ioctl, since the
only source of EBBs on POWER8 is the PMU, and there is an explicit
enable bit in the PMU registers (and those PMU registers do get
properly context-switched between host and guest).  On POWER9 there
is provision for externally-generated EBBs, and these are not subject
to the control in the PMU registers.

Since these registers only affect userspace, we can save them when
we first come in from userspace and restore them before returning to
userspace, rather than saving/restoring the host values on every
guest entry/exit.  Similarly, we don't need to worry about their
values on offline secondary threads since they execute in the context
of the idle task, which never executes in userspace.

drm/mst: Avoid processing partially received up/down message transactions

2017-07-27T22:03:29+00:00

commit 636c4c3e762b62aa93632c645ca65879285b16e3 upstream.

Currently we may process up/down message transactions containing
uninitialized data. This can happen if there was an error during the
reception of any message in the transaction, but we happened to receive
the last message correctly with the end-of-message flag set.

To avoid this abort the reception of the transaction when the first
error is detected, rejecting any messages until a message with the
start-of-message flag is received (which will start a new transaction).
This is also what the DP 1.4 spec 2.11.8.2 calls for in this case.

In addtion this also prevents receiving bogus transactions without the
first message with the the start-of-message flag set.

v2:
- unchanged
v3:
- git add the part that actually skips messages after an error in
  drm_dp_sideband_msg_build()
