commit 7195ee3120d878259e8d94a5d9f808116f34d5ea upstream.

It's not clear what behaviour is sensible when doing partial write of
NT_METAG_RPIPE, so just don't bother.

This patch assumes that userspace will never rely on a partial SETREGSET
in this case, since it's not clear what should happen anyway.

metag: SMP: Fix 4KiB stack setup on secondary CPUs 2015-09-15T21:52:47+00:00 James Hogan james.hogan@imgtec.com 2015-09-15T21:19:04+00:00 928df02bd46e2fe02cfd3127ba1814796d6d80b0 Back in early 2008, 4KiB stack support was added to reduce memory consumption on workloads with lots of threads, using a separate IRQ stack per CPU to alleviate stack pressure. However the SMP code added a year and a half later didn't set up the IRQ stack when bringing up secondary CPUs, resulting in a crash when SMP is configured with 4KiB stacks, as soon as the first interrupt arrived on a secondary CPU. Fix with calls to irq_ctx_exit()/irq_ctx_exit() when bringing up/down a CPU. Signed-off-by: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-metag@vger.kernel.org
