linux-stable.git/arch/arm/kernel, branch v3.12.41 Linux kernel stable tree ARM: Correct BUG() assembly to ensure it is endian-agnostic 2015-04-09T12:13:37+00:00 Ben Dooks ben.dooks@codethink.co.uk 2013-07-25T13:38:03+00:00 c35d584129f4dcb1ef167427475e5452e456431e commit 63328070eff2f4fd730c86966a0dbc976147c39f upstream. Currently BUG() uses .word or .hword to create the necessary illegal instructions. However if we are building BE8 then these get swapped by the linker into different illegal instructions in the text. This means that the BUG() macro does not get trapped properly. Change to using <asm/opcodes.h> to provide the necessary ARM instruction building as we cannot rely on gcc/gas having the `.inst` instructions which where added to try and resolve this issue (reported by Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>).

The TPIDRURO and TPIDRURW registers need to be flushed during exec; otherwise TLS information is potentially leaked. TPIDRURO in particular needs careful treatment. Since flush_thread basically needs the same code used to set the TLS in arm_syscall, pull that into a common set_tls helper in tls.h and use it in both places. Similarly, TEEHBR needs to be cleared during exec as well. Clearing its save slot in thread_info isn't right as there is no guarantee that a thread switch will occur before the new program runs.

ARM: 8133/1: use irq_set_affinity with force=false when migrating irqs 2014-10-13T13:41:07+00:00 Sudeep Holla sudeep.holla@arm.com 2014-09-01T16:14:29+00:00 132f8be98a83c38b1c63a8962ce63c31e28fd763 commit a040803a9d6b8c1876d3487a5cb69602ebcbb82c upstream. Since commit 1dbfa187dad ("ARM: irq migration: force migration off CPU going down") the ARM interrupt migration code on cpu offline calls irqchip.irq_set_affinity() with the argument force=true. At the point of this change the argument had no effect because it was not used by any interrupt chip driver and there was no semantics defined. This changed with commit 01f8fa4f01d8 ("genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts") which made the force argument useful to route interrupts to not yet online cpus without checking the target cpu against the cpu online mask. The following commit ffde1de64012 ("irqchip: gic: Support forced affinity setting") implemented this for the GIC interrupt controller. As a consequence the ARM cpu offline irq migration fails if CPU0 is offlined, because CPU0 is still set in the affinity mask and the validataion against cpu online mask is skipped to the force argument being true. The following first_cpu(mask) selection always selects CPU0 as the target. Solve the issue by calling irq_set_affinity() with force=false from the CPU offline irq migration code so the GIC driver validates the affinity mask against CPU online mask and therefore removes CPU0 from the possible target candidates. Tested on TC2 hotpluging CPU0 in and out. Without this patch the system locks up as the IRQs are not migrated away from CPU0.

commit a040803a9d6b8c1876d3487a5cb69602ebcbb82c upstream.

Since commit 1dbfa187dad ("ARM: irq migration: force migration off CPU
going down") the ARM interrupt migration code on cpu offline calls
irqchip.irq_set_affinity() with the argument force=true. At the point
of this change the argument had no effect because it was not used by
any interrupt chip driver and there was no semantics defined.

This changed with commit 01f8fa4f01d8 ("genirq: Allow forcing cpu
affinity of interrupts") which made the force argument useful to route
interrupts to not yet online cpus without checking the target cpu
against the cpu online mask. The following commit ffde1de64012
("irqchip: gic: Support forced affinity setting") implemented this for
the GIC interrupt controller.

As a consequence the ARM cpu offline irq migration fails if CPU0 is
offlined, because CPU0 is still set in the affinity mask and the
validataion against cpu online mask is skipped to the force argument
being true. The following first_cpu(mask) selection always selects
CPU0 as the target.

Solve the issue by calling irq_set_affinity() with force=false from
the CPU offline irq migration code so the GIC driver validates the
affinity mask against CPU online mask and therefore removes CPU0 from
the possible target candidates.

Tested on TC2 hotpluging CPU0 in and out. Without this patch the system
locks up as the IRQs are not migrated away from CPU0.
