linux-stable.git/arch/arm, branch v3.0.41 Linux kernel stable tree ARM: mxs: Remove MMAP_MIN_ADDR setting from mxs_defconfig 2012-08-15T19:04:29+00:00 Marek Vasut marex@denx.de 2012-08-03T18:54:48+00:00 c75f1f090ef88416c6e299b6cb07edcabe11575b commit 3bed491c8d28329e34f8a31e3fe64d03f3a350f1 upstream. The CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR was set to 65536 in mxs_defconfig, this caused severe breakage of userland applications since the upper limit for ARM is 32768. By default CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR is set to 4096 and can also be changed via /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr if needed. Quoting Russell King [1]: "4096 is also fine for ARM too. There's not much point in having defconfigs change it - that would just be pure noise in the config files." the CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR can be removed from the defconfig altogether. This problem was introduced by commit cde7c41 (ARM: configs: add defconfig for mach-mxs).

commit 3bed491c8d28329e34f8a31e3fe64d03f3a350f1 upstream.

The CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR was set to 65536 in mxs_defconfig,
this caused severe breakage of userland applications since the upper
limit for ARM is 32768. By default CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR is
set to 4096 and can also be changed via /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr
if needed.

Quoting Russell King [1]:

"4096 is also fine for ARM too. There's not much point in having
defconfigs change it - that would just be pure noise in the config
files."

the CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR can be removed from the defconfig
altogether.

This problem was introduced by commit cde7c41 (ARM: configs: add
defconfig for mach-mxs).

ARM: 7479/1: mm: avoid NULL dereference when flushing gate_vma with VIVT caches 2012-08-15T19:04:10+00:00 Will Deacon will.deacon@arm.com 2012-07-23T13:18:13+00:00 b9d316de7dc18de5df147597e3c38365ee1bfd6c commit b74253f78400f9a4b42da84bb1de7540b88ce7c4 upstream. The vivt_flush_cache_{range,page} functions check that the mm_struct of the VMA being flushed has been active on the current CPU before performing the cache maintenance. The gate_vma has a NULL mm_struct pointer and, as such, will cause a kernel fault if we try to flush it with the above operations. This happens during ELF core dumps, which include the gate_vma as it may be useful for debugging purposes. This patch adds checks to the VIVT cache flushing functions so that VMAs with a NULL mm_struct are flushed unconditionally (the vectors page may be dirty if we use it to store the current TLS pointer).

commit b74253f78400f9a4b42da84bb1de7540b88ce7c4 upstream.

The vivt_flush_cache_{range,page} functions check that the mm_struct
of the VMA being flushed has been active on the current CPU before
performing the cache maintenance.

The gate_vma has a NULL mm_struct pointer and, as such, will cause a
kernel fault if we try to flush it with the above operations. This
happens during ELF core dumps, which include the gate_vma as it may be
useful for debugging purposes.

This patch adds checks to the VIVT cache flushing functions so that VMAs
with a NULL mm_struct are flushed unconditionally (the vectors page may
be dirty if we use it to store the current TLS pointer).

We can stall RCU processing on SMP platforms if a CPU sits in its idle loop for a long time. This happens because we don't call irq_enter() and irq_exit() around generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() and friends.
