CPU_32v6 currently selects CPU_USE_DOMAINS if CPU_V6 and MMU. This is because ARM 1136 r0pX CPUs lack the v6k extensions, and therefore do not have hardware thread registers. The lack of these registers requires the kernel to update the vectors page at each context switch in order to write a new TLS pointer. This write must be done via the userspace mapping, since aliasing caches can lead to expensive flushing when using kmap. Finally, this requires the vectors page to be mapped r/w for kernel and r/o for user, which has implications for things like put_user which must trigger CoW appropriately when targetting user pages. The upshot of all this is that a v6/v7 kernel makes use of domains to segregate kernel and user memory accesses. This has the nasty side-effect of making device mappings executable, which has been observed to cause subtle bugs on recent cores (e.g. Cortex-A15 performing a speculative instruction fetch from the GIC and acking an interrupt in the process). This patch solves this problem by removing the remaining domain support from ARMv6.

commit b6ccb9803e90c16b212cf4ed62913a7591e79a39 upstream.

CPU_32v6 currently selects CPU_USE_DOMAINS if CPU_V6 and MMU. This is
because ARM 1136 r0pX CPUs lack the v6k extensions, and therefore do
not have hardware thread registers. The lack of these registers requires
the kernel to update the vectors page at each context switch in order to
write a new TLS pointer. This write must be done via the userspace
mapping, since aliasing caches can lead to expensive flushing when using
kmap. Finally, this requires the vectors page to be mapped r/w for
kernel and r/o for user, which has implications for things like put_user
which must trigger CoW appropriately when targetting user pages.

The upshot of all this is that a v6/v7 kernel makes use of domains to
segregate kernel and user memory accesses. This has the nasty
side-effect of making device mappings executable, which has been
observed to cause subtle bugs on recent cores (e.g. Cortex-A15
performing a speculative instruction fetch from the GIC and acking an
interrupt in the process).

This patch solves this problem by removing the remaining domain support
from ARMv6. A new memory type is added specifically for the vectors page
which allows that page (and only that page) to be mapped as user r/o,
kernel r/w. All other user r/o pages are mapped also as kernel r/o.

When unlocking a spinlock, we require the following, strictly ordered

Whilst the code does indeed reflect this in terms of the architecture,

commit acfdd4b1f7590d02e9bae3b73bdbbc4a31b05d38 upstream.

a.out support on ARM requires that argc, argv and envp are passed in
r0-r2 respectively, which requires hacking load_aout_binary to
prevent argc being clobbered by the return code. Whilst mainline kernels
do set the registers up in start_thread, the aout loader has never
carried the hack in mainline.

Initialising the registers in this way actually goes against the libc
expectations for ELF binaries, where argc, argv and envp are passed on
the stack, with r0 being used to hold a pointer to an exit function for
cleaning up after the dynamic linker if required. If the pointer is
NULL, then it is ignored. When execing an ELF binary, Linux currently
zeroes r0, then sets it to argc and then finally clobbers it with the
return value of the execve syscall, so we actually end up with:

	r0 = 0
	stack[0] = argc
	r1 = stack[1] = argv
	r2 = stack[2] = envp

libc treats r1 and r2 as undefined. The clobbering of r0 by sys_execve
works for user-spawned threads, but when executing an ELF binary from a
kernel thread (via call_usermodehelper), the execve is performed on the
ret_from_fork path, which restores r0 from the saved pt_regs, resulting
in argc being presented to the C library. This has horrible consequences
when the application exits, since we have an exit function registered
using argc, resulting in a jump to hyperspace.

This patch solves the problem by removing the partial a.out support from
arch/arm/ altogether.
