commit a077224fd35b2f7fbc93f14cf67074fc792fbac2 upstream.
While working on the 32-bit ARM port of UEFI, I noticed a strange
corruption in the kernel log. The following snprintf() statement
(in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c:efi_md_typeattr_format())
snprintf(pos, size, "|%3s|%2s|%2s|%2s|%3s|%2s|%2s|%2s|%2s]",
was producing the following output in the log:
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
|RUN| | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
|RUN| | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
|RUN| | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
|RUN| | | | | | | |UC]
|RUN| | | | | | | |UC]
As it turns out, this is caused by incorrect code being emitted for
the string() function in lib/vsprintf.c. The following code
if (!(spec.flags & LEFT)) {
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
}
for (i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = *s;
++buf; ++s;
}
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
when called with len == 0, triggers an issue in the GCC SRA optimization
pass (Scalar Replacement of Aggregates), which handles promotion of signed
struct members incorrectly. This is a known but as yet unresolved issue.
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65932). In this particular
case, it is causing the second while loop to be executed erroneously a
single time, causing the additional space characters to be printed.
So disable the optimization by passing -fno-ipa-sra.

Install targets (install, zinstall, uinstall) on arm have a dependency to vmlinux. This may cause parts of the kernel to be rebuilt during installation. We must avoid this since this may run as root. Install targets "ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT MODIFY THE SOURCE TREE." as Linus emphasized this in: http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/10/600 So on arm and maybe other archs we need the same as for x86: 1648e4f8 x86, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux This patch fixes this for arm. Dependencies are removed and instead a check to install.sh is added for the files that are needed. This issue was uncovered by this build error where the -j option is used in conjunction with install targets: $ make <makeflags> $ make <makeflags> zinstall ... DEPMOD Usage: .../scripts/depmod.sh /sbin/depmod <kernelrelease> (INSTALL_MOD_PATH and INSTALL_PATH variables set, so no root perms required in this case.) The problem is that zinstall on arm due to its dependency to vmlinux does a prepare/prepare3 and finally does a forced rewrite of kernel.release even if it exists already. Rebuilding kernel.release removes it first and then recreates it. This might race with another parallel make job running depmod. So this patch should fix this one too. Also quoting $(KERNELRELEASE) arg for install.sh as this messes argument order in case it is empty (which is the case if the kernel was not built yet).

Add ARCH_SHMOBILE_MULTI to mach-shmobile that can be used to enable ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM on selected SoCs and boards.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"This contains the usual updates from other people (listed below) and
the usual random muddle of miscellaneous ARM updates which cover some
low priority bug fixes and performance improvements.
I've started to put the pull request wording into the merge commits,
which are:
- NoMMU stuff:
This includes the following series sent earlier to the list:
- nommu-fixes
- R7 Support
- MPU support
I've left out the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM/!MMU stuff that Arnd and I
were discussing today until we've reached a conclusion/that's had
some more review.
This is rebased (and re-tested) on your devel-stable branch because
otherwise there were going to be conflicts with Uwe's V7M work now
that you've merged that. I've included the fix for limiting MPU to
CPU_V7.
- Huge page support
These changes bring both HugeTLB support and Transparent HugePage
(THP) support to ARM. Only long descriptors (LPAE) are supported
in this series.
The code has been tested on an Arndale board (Exynos 5250).
- LPAE updates
Please pull these miscellaneous LPAE fixes I've been collecting for
a while now for 3.11. They've been tested and reviewed by quite a
few people, and most of the patches are pretty trivial. -- Will Deacon.
- arch_timer cleanups
Please pull these arch_timer cleanups I've been holding onto for a
while. They're the same as my last posting, but have been rebased
to v3.10-rc3.
- mpidr linearisation (multiprocessor id register - identifies which
CPU number we are in the system)
This patch series that implements MPIDR linearization through a
simple hashing algorithm and updates current cpu_{suspend}/{resume}
code to use the newly created hash structures to retrieve context
pointers. It represents a stepping stone for the implementation of
power management code on forthcoming multi-cluster ARM systems.
It has been tested on TC2 (dual cluster A15xA7 system), iMX6q,
OMAP4 and Tegra, with processors hitting low-power states requiring
warm-boot resume through the cpu_resume code path"

Pull ARM SoC late changes from Arnd Bergmann:
"These are changes that arrived a little late before the merge window
or that have multiple dependencies on previous branches so they did
not fit into one of the earlier ones. There are 10 branches merged
here, a total of 39 non-merge commits. Contents are a mixed bag for
the above reasons:
* Two new SoC platforms: ST microelectronics stixxxx and the TI
'Nspire' graphing calculator. These should have been in the 'soc'
branch but were a little late
* Support for the Exynos 5420 variant in mach-exynos, which is based
on the other exynos branches to avoid conflicts.
* Various small changes for sh-mobile, ux500 and davinci
* Common clk support for MSM"

Pull ARM SoC specific changes from Arnd Bergmann: "These changes are all to SoC-specific code, a total of 33 branches on 17 platforms were pulled into this. Like last time, Renesas sh-mobile is now the platform with the most changes, followed by OMAP and EXYNOS. Two new platforms, TI Keystone and Rockchips RK3xxx are added in this branch, both containing almost no platform specific code at all, since they are using generic subsystem interfaces for clocks, pinctrl, interrupts etc. The device drivers are getting merged through the respective subsystem maintainer trees. One more SoC (u300) is now multiplatform capable and several others (shmobile, exynos, msm, integrator, kirkwood, clps711x) are moving towards that goal with this series but need more work. Also noteworthy is the work on PCI here, which is traditionally part of the SoC specific code. With the changes done by Thomas Petazzoni, we can now more easily have PCI host controller drivers as loadable modules and keep them separate from the platform code in drivers/pci/host. This has already led to the discovery that three platforms (exynos, spear and imx) are actually using an identical PCIe host controller and will be able to share a driver once support for spear and imx is added." * tag 'soc-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (480 commits) ARM: integrator: let pciv3 use mem/premem from device tree ARM: integrator: set local side PCI addresses right ARM: dts: Add pcie controller node for exynos5440-ssdk5440 ARM: dts: Add pcie controller node for Samsung EXYNOS5440 SoC ARM: EXYNOS: Enable PCIe support for Exynos5440 pci: Add PCIe driver for Samsung Exynos ARM: OMAP5: voltagedomain data: remove temporary OMAP4 voltage data ARM: keystone: Move CPU bringup code to dedicated asm file ARM: multiplatform: always pick one CPU type ARM: imx: select syscon for IMX6SL ARM: keystone: select ARM_ERRATA_798181 only for SMP ARM: imx: Synertronixx scb9328 needs to select SOC_IMX1 ARM: OMAP2+: AM43x: resolve SMP related build error dmaengine: edma: enable build for AM33XX ARM: edma: Add EDMA crossbar event mux support ARM: edma: Add DT and runtime PM support to the private EDMA API dmaengine: edma: Add TI EDMA device tree binding arm: add basic support for Rockchip RK3066a boards arm: add debug uarts for rockchip rk29xx and rk3xxx series arm: Add basic clocks for Rockchip rk3066a SoCs ...
