commit 513f7f747e1cba81f28a436911fba0b485878ebd upstream.

Sven noticed that calling ioremap() and iounmap() multiple times leads
to a vmap memory leak:
	vmap allocation for size 4198400 failed:
	use vmalloc=&lt;size&gt; to increase size

It seems we missed calling vunmap() in iounmap().

commit 10835c854685393a921b68f529bf740fa7c9984d upstream.

On parisc the privilege level of a process is stored in the lowest two bits of
the instruction pointers (IAOQ0 and IAOQ1). On Linux we use privilege level 0
for the kernel and privilege level 3 for user-space. So userspace should not be
allowed to modify IAOQ0 or IAOQ1 of a ptraced process to change it's privilege
level to e.g. 0 to try to gain kernel privileges.

This patch prevents such modifications by always setting the two lowest bits to
one (which relates to privilege level 3 for user-space) if IAOQ0 or IAOQ1 are
modified via ptrace calls in the native and compat ptrace paths.

<title>parisc: Fix address in HPMC IVA</title>

commit 1138b6718ff74d2a934459643e3754423d23b5e2 upstream.

Helge noticed that the address of the os_hpmc handler was not being
correctly calculated in the hpmc macro.  As a result, PDCE_CHECK would
fail to call os_hpmc:

&lt;Cpu2&gt; e800009802e00000  0000000000000000  CC_ERR_CHECK_HPMC

&lt;Cpu2&gt; 030010d502e00000  0000000000000000  CC_CPU_STOP

The address problem can be seen by dumping the fault vector:

0000000040159000 &lt;fault_vector_20&gt;:
    40159000:   63 6f 77 73     stb r15,-2447(dp)
    40159004:   20 63 61 6e     ldil L%b747000,r3

        ...
    40159020:   08 00 02 40     nop
    40159024:   20 6e 60 02     ldil L%15d000,r3
    40159028:   34 63 00 00     ldo 0(r3),r3
    4015902c:   e8 60 c0 02     bv,n r0(r3)
    40159030:   08 00 02 40     nop
    40159034:   00 00 00 00     break 0,0
    40159038:   c0 00 70 00     bb,*&lt; r0,sar,40159840 &lt;fault_vector_20+0x840&gt;
    4015903c:   00 00 00 00     break 0,0

Location 40159038 should contain the physical address of os_hpmc:

000000004015d000 &lt;os_hpmc&gt;:
    4015d000:   08 1a 02 43     copy r26,r3
    4015d004:   01 c0 08 a4     mfctl iva,r4
    4015d008:   48 85 00 68     ldw 34(r4),r5

This patch moves the address setup into initialize_ivt to resolve the
above problem.  I tested the change by dumping the HPMC entry after setup:

0000000040209020:  8000240
0000000040209024: 206a2004

commit 3c229b3f2dd8133f61bb81d3cb018be92f4bba39 upstream.

Fix a long-existing small nasty bug in the map_pages() implementation which
leads to overwriting already written pte entries with zero, *if* map_pages() is
called a second time with an end address which isn't aligned on a pmd boundry.
This happens for example if we want to remap only the text segment read/write
in order to run alternative patching on the code. Exiting the loop when we
reach the end address fixes this.

commit 615b2665fd20c327b631ff1e79426775de748094 upstream.

commit d5654e156bc4d68a87bbaa6d7e020baceddf6e68 upstream.

Make sure that the HPMC (High Priority Machine Check) handler is 16-byte
aligned and that it's length in the IVT is a multiple of 16 bytes.
Otherwise PDC may decide not to call the HPMC crash handler.

commit 8d55da810f1fabcf1d4c0bbc46205e5f2c0fa84b upstream.

We've replaced remap_file_pages(2) implementation with emulation.  Nobody
creates non-linear mapping anymore.

<title>parisc: Fix validity check of pointer size argument in new CAS implementation</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 05f016d2ca7a4fab99d5d5472168506ddf95e74f upstream.

As noted by Christoph Biedl, passing a pointer size of 4 in the new CAS
implementation causes a kernel crash.  The attached patch corrects the
off by one error in the argument validity check.

In reviewing the code, I noticed that we only perform word operations
with the pointer size argument.  The subi instruction intentionally uses
a word condition on 64-bit kernels.  Nullification was used instead of a
cmpib instruction as the branch should never be taken.  The shlw
pseudo-operation generates a depw,z instruction and it clears the target
before doing a shift left word deposit.  Thus, we don't need to clip the
upper 32 bits of this argument on 64-bit kernels.

Tested with a gcc testsuite run with a 64-bit kernel.  The gcc atomic
code in libgcc is the only direct user of the new CAS implementation
that I am aware of.

<title>parisc: Fix double-word compare and exchange in LWS code on 32-bit kernels</title>

commit 374b3bf8e8b519f61eb9775888074c6e46b3bf0c upstream.

As discussed on the debian-hppa list, double-wordcompare and exchange
operations fail on 32-bit kernels.  Looking at the code, I realized that
the ",ma" completer does the wrong thing in the  "ldw,ma  4(%r26), %r29"
instruction.  This increments %r26 and causes the following store to
write to the wrong location.

Note by Helge Deller:
The patch applies cleanly to stable kernel series if this upstream
commit is merged in advance:
f4125cfdb300 ("parisc: Avoid trashing sr2 and sr3 in LWS code").
