ARM: 7414/1: SMP: prevent use of the console when using idmap_pgd 2012-05-21T16:39:58+00:00 Colin Cross ccross@android.com 2012-05-05T19:58:13+00:00 cb68af469fa453694a03553c6efd0681f2c5264f commit fde165b2a29673aabf18ceff14dea1f1cfb0daad upstream. Commit 4e8ee7de227e3ab9a72040b448ad728c5428a042 (ARM: SMP: use idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting) switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during __cpu_up. This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings but be missing all dynamic mappings. If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been initialized, leading to a hang. Initial boot is not affected because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually not affected because the offending console is suspended. Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem. A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

Commit 4e8ee7de227e3ab9a72040b448ad728c5428a042 (ARM: SMP: use
idmap_pgd for mapping MMU enable during secondary booting)
switched secondary boot to use idmap_pgd, which is initialized
during early_initcall, instead of a page table initialized during
__cpu_up.  This causes idmap_pgd to contain the static mappings
but be missing all dynamic mappings.

If a console is registered that creates a dynamic mapping, the
printk in secondary_start_kernel will trigger a data abort on
the missing mapping before the exception handlers have been
initialized, leading to a hang.  Initial boot is not affected
because no consoles have been registered, and resume is usually
not affected because the offending console is suspended.
Onlining a cpu with hotplug triggers the problem.

A workaround is to the printk in secondary_start_kernel until
after the page tables have been switched back to init_mm.

ARM: 7410/1: Add extra clobber registers for assembly in kernel_execve 2012-05-21T16:39:58+00:00 Tim Bird tim.bird@am.sony.com 2012-05-02T21:55:39+00:00 6007ca9964e4607fd5835be19391b1d85ebc07a4 commit e787ec1376e862fcea1bfd523feb7c5fb43ecdb9 upstream. The inline assembly in kernel_execve() uses r8 and r9. Since this code sequence does not return, it usually doesn't matter if the register clobber list is accurate. However, I saw a case where a particular version of gcc used r8 as an intermediate for the value eventually passed to r9. Because r8 is used in the inline assembly, and not mentioned in the clobber list, r9 was set to an incorrect value. This resulted in a kernel panic on execution of the first user-space program in the system. r9 is used in ret_to_user as the thread_info pointer, and if it's wrong, bad things happen.

TPIDRURW is a user read/write register forming part of the group of thread registers in more recent versions of the ARM architecture (~v6+).

Currently when ThumbEE is not enabled (!CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE) the ThumbEE register states are not saved/restored at context switch. The default state of the ThumbEE Ctrl register (TEECR) allows userspace accesses to the ThumbEE Base Handler register (TEEHBR). This can cause unexpected behaviour when people use ThumbEE on !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE kernels, as well as allowing covert communication - eg between userspace tasks running inside chroot jails. This patch sets up TEECR in order to prevent user-space access to TEEHBR when !CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE. In this case, tasks are sent SIGILL if they try to access TEEHBR.

OMAPDSS: HDMI: PHY burnout fix 2012-03-12T17:32:59+00:00 Tomi Valkeinen tomi.valkeinen@ti.com 2012-01-17T09:09:57+00:00 21189f03d3ec3a74d9949907c828410d7a9a86d5 commit c49d005b6cc8491fad5b24f82805be2d6bcbd3dd upstream. A hardware bug in the OMAP4 HDMI PHY causes physical damage to the board if the HDMI PHY is kept powered on when the cable is not connected. This patch solves the problem by adding hot-plug-detection into the HDMI IP driver. This is not a real HPD support in the sense that nobody else than the IP driver gets to know about the HPD events, but is only meant to fix the HW bug. The strategy is simple: If the display device is turned off by the user, the PHY power is set to OFF. When the display device is turned on by the user, the PHY power is set either to LDOON or TXON, depending on whether the HDMI cable is connected. The reason to avoid PHY OFF when the display device is on, but the cable is disconnected, is that when the PHY is turned OFF, the HDMI IP is not "ticking" and thus the DISPC does not receive pixel clock from the HDMI IP. This would, for example, prevent any VSYNCs from happening, and would thus affect the users of omapdss. By using LDOON when the cable is disconnected we'll avoid the HW bug, but keep the HDMI working as usual from the user's point of view.
