Nicolas Pitre 720c60e194 ARM: 6954/1: zImage: fix Thumb2 breakage
Commit af3e4fd37a "ARM: 6859/1: Add writethrough dcache support for
ARM926EJS processor" broke Thumb2 compilation by omitting to maintain
the wide encoding for the added branch instructions which made the
ARM926EJ-S record smaller than expected, breaking the record walk code.

Nicolas Pitre f506cd48a4 ARM: 6953/1: DT: don't try to access physical address zero
If the DT physical address is zero, this is equivalent to no DT.
Especially when the actual RAM physical address is not located at zero,
the result of phys_to_virt() would point to la-la-land and crash the
kernel, which crash is completely silent this early during boot.

Nicolas Pitre 8d7e4cc2c8 ARM: zImage: make sure no GOTOFF relocs are used with .bss symbols
To be able to relocate the .bss section at run time independently from
the rest of the code, we must make sure that no GOTOFF relocations are
used with .bss symbols.  This usually means that no global variables can
be marked static unless they're also const.

To enforce this, suffice to fail the build whenever a private symbol
is allocated to .bss and list those symbols for convenience.

The user_stack and user_stack_end labels in head.S were converted into
non exported symbols to remove false positives.

To be able to relocate the .bss section at run time independently from

Let's remove the static qualifier from current offenders, or turn them

In commit d239b1dc09 the hardcoded 4x estimate for the decompressed
kernel size was replaced by the exact Image file size and passed to
the linker as a symbol value.  Turns out that this is unneeded as the
size is already included at the end of the compressed piggy data.
For those compressed formats that don't include this data, the build
system already takes care of appending it using size_append in
scripts/Makefile.lib.  So let's use that instead.

Nicolas Pitre adcc25915b ARM: zImage: make sure not to relocate on top of the relocation code
If the zImage load address is slightly below the relocation address,
there is a risk for the copied data to overwrite the copy loop or
cache flush code that the relocation process requires.  Always
bump the relocation address by the size of that code to avoid this
issue.

Noticed by Tony Lindgren <[email protected]>.

While at it, let's start the copy from the restart symbol which makes
the above code size computation possible by the assembler directly
(same sections), given that we don't need to preserve the code before
that point anyway. And therefore we don't need to carry the _start
pointer in r5 anymore.

Nicolas Pitre d239b1dc09 ARM: 6746/1: remove the 4x expansion presumption while decompressing the kernel
We currently presume a 4x expansion to guess the decompressed kernel size
in order to determine if the decompressed kernel is in conflict with
the location where zImage is loaded.  This guess may cause many issues
by overestimating the final kernel image size:

- This may force a needless relocation if the location of zImage was
  fine, wasting some precious microseconds of boot time.

- The relocation may be located way too far, possibly overwriting the
  initrd image in RAM.

- If the kernel image includes a large already-compressed initramfs image
  then the problem is even more exacerbated.

And if by some strange means the 4x guess is too low then we may overwrite
ourselves with the decompressed image.

So let's use the exact decompressed kernel image size instead.  For that
we need to rely on the stat command, but this is hardly a new build
dependency as the kernel already depends on many external commands
to be built provided by the coreutils package where stat is found.

In the case of a conflict between the memory used by the compressed
kernel with its decompressor code and the memory used for the

relocate it afterwards.

This would be more efficient to do this the other way around i.e.
relocate the compressed data up front instead, resulting in a smaller
copy.  That also has the advantage of making the code smaller and more
straight forward.

Nicolas Pitre aaa50048f6 ARM: 6639/1: allow highmem on SMP platforms without h/w TLB ops broadcast
In commit e616c59140, highmem support was
deactivated for SMP platforms without hardware TLB ops broadcast because
usage of kmap_high_get() requires that IRQs be disabled when kmap_lock
is locked which is incompatible with the IPI mechanism used by the
software TLB ops broadcast invoked through flush_all_zero_pkmaps().

The reason for kmap_high_get() is to ensure that the currently kmap'd
page usage count does not decrease to zero while we're using its
existing virtual mapping in an atomic context.  With a VIVT cache this
is essential to do due to cache coherency issues, but with a VIPT cache
this is only an optimization so not to pay the price of establishing a
second mapping if an existing one can be used.  However, on VIPT
platforms without hardware TLB maintenance we can give up on that
optimization in order to be able to use highmem.

From ARMv7 onwards the TLB ops are broadcasted in hardware, so let's
disable ARCH_NEEDS_KMAP_HIGH_GET only when CONFIG_SMP and
CONFIG_CPU_TLB_V6 are defined.

Nicolas Pitre 3572bea8cb ARM: 6748/1: ignore mdesc->boot_params if out of range
The initial MMU table created in head.S contains a 1 MB mapping at the
start of memory to let the early kernel boot code access the boot params
specified by mdesc->boot_params.

When using CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT it is possible for the kernel to
have a different idea of where the start of memory is at run time, making
the compile-time determined mdesc->boot_params pointing to a memory area
which is not mapped.  Any access to the boot params in that case will
fault and silently hang the kernel at that point.  It is therefore a
better idea to simply ignore mdesc->boot_params in that case and give
the kernel a chance to print some diagnostic on the console later.

If the bootloader provides a valid pointer in r2 to the kernel then this
is used instead of mdesc->boot_params, and an explicit mapping is already
created in the initial MMU table for it.  It is therefore a good idea to
use that facility when using a relocated kernel.

Nicolas Pitre 47725ac76f vcs: add poll/fasync support
The /dev/vcs* devices are used, amongst other things, by accessibility
applications such as BRLTTY to display the screen content onto refreshable
braille displays.  Currently this is performed by constantly reading from
/dev/vcsa0 whether or not the screen content has changed.  Given the
default braille refresh rate of 25 times per second, this easily qualifies
as the biggest source of wake-up events preventing laptops from entering
deeper power saving states.

To avoid this periodic polling, let's add support for select()/poll() and
SIGIO with the /dev/vcs* devices.  The implemented semantic is to report
data availability whenever the corresponding vt has seen some update after
the last read() operation.  The application still has to lseek() back
as usual in order to read() the new data.

Not to create unwanted overhead, the needed data structure is allocated
and the vt notification callback is registered only when the poll or
fasync method is invoked for the first time per file instance.

Nicolas Pitre ec706dab29 ARM: add a vma entry for the user accessible vector page
The kernel makes the high vector page visible to user space. This page
contains (amongst others) small code segments that can be executed in
user space.  Make this page visible through ptrace and /proc/<pid>/mem
in order to let gdb perform code parsing needed for proper unwinding.

For example, the ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK handler actually has a stack
frame -- it returns to a PC value stored on the user's stack.   To
unwind after a "sleep" system call was interrupted twice, GDB would
have to recognize this situation and understand that stack frame
layout -- which it currently cannot do.

We could fix this by hard-coding addresses in the vector page range into
GDB, but that isn't really portable as not all of those addresses are
guaranteed to remain stable across kernel releases.  And having the gdb
process make an exception for this page and get  content from its own
address space for it looks strange, and it is not future proof either.

Being located above PAGE_OFFSET, this vma cannot be deleted by
user space code.

This allows for board specific issues to override decisions made in generic
code that might not be suitable due to some errata or the like, by making
the initcall hooks from those board specific files run after the core ones,
therefore avoiding ugly #ifdef's in core code.

Nicolas Pitre 2f27bf834e ARM: 6401/1: plug a race in the alignment trap handler
When the policy for user space is to ignore misaligned accesses from user
space, the processor then performs a documented rotation on the accessed
data.  This is the result of the access being trapped, and the kernel
disabling the alignment trap before returning to user space again.

In kernel space we always want misaligned accesses to be fixed up.  This
is enforced by always re-enabling the alignment trap on every entry into
kernel space from user space.  No such re-enabling is performed when an
exception occurs while already in kernel space as the alignment trap is
always supposed to be enabled in that case.

There is however a small race window when a misaligned access in user
space is trapped and the alignment trap disabled, but the CPU didn't
return to user space just yet.  Any exception would be entered from kernel
space at that point and the kernel would then execute with the alignment
trap disabled.

Thanks to Maxime Bizon <[email protected]> for providing a test module
that made this issue reproducible.

Nicolas Pitre df0698be14 ARM: stack protector: change the canary value per task
A new random value for the canary is stored in the task struct whenever
a new task is forked.  This is meant to allow for different canary values
per task.  On ARM, GCC expects the canary value to be found in a global
variable called __stack_chk_guard.  So this variable has to be updated
with the value stored in the task struct whenever a task switch occurs.

Because the variable GCC expects is global, this cannot work on SMP
unfortunately.  So, on SMP, the same initial canary value is kept
throughout, making this feature a bit less effective although it is still
useful.

One way to overcome this GCC limitation would be to locate the
__stack_chk_guard variable into a memory page of its own for each CPU,
and then use TLB locking to have each CPU see its own page at the same
virtual address for each of them.

Nicolas Pitre 17ebba1fe4 ARM: 6165/1: trap overflows on highmem pages from kmap_atomic when debugging
When CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is used, the fixmap entry used for a highmem page
by kmap_atomic() is always cleared by kunmap_atomic().  This helps find
bad usages such as dereferences after the unmap, or overflow into the
adjacent fixmap areas.

But this debugging aid is completely bypassed when a kmap for the same
page already exists as the kmap is reused instead.  ON VIVT systems we
have no choice but to reuse that kmap due to cache coherency issues,
but on non VIVT systems we should always force the fixmap usage when
debugging is active.

Nicolas Pitre 7e5a69e83b ARM: 6007/1: fix highmem with VIPT cache and DMA
The VIVT cache of a highmem page is always flushed before the page
is unmapped.  This cache flush is explicit through flush_cache_kmaps()
in flush_all_zero_pkmaps(), or through __cpuc_flush_dcache_area() in
kunmap_atomic().  There is also an implicit flush of those highmem pages
that were part of a process that just terminated making those pages free
as the whole VIVT cache has to be flushed on every task switch. Hence
unmapped highmem pages need no cache maintenance in that case.

However unmapped pages may still be cached with a VIPT cache because the
cache is tagged with physical addresses.  There is no need for a whole
cache flush during task switching for that reason, and despite the
explicit cache flushes in flush_all_zero_pkmaps() and kunmap_atomic(),
some highmem pages that were mapped in user space end up still cached
even when they become unmapped.

So, we do have to perform cache maintenance on those unmapped highmem
pages in the context of DMA when using a VIPT cache.  Unfortunately,
it is not possible to perform that cache maintenance using physical
addresses as all the L1 cache maintenance coprocessor functions accept
virtual addresses only.  Therefore we have no choice but to set up a
temporary virtual mapping for that purpose.

And of course the explicit cache flushing when unmapping a highmem page
on a system with a VIPT cache now can go, which should increase
performance.

While at it, because the code in __flush_dcache_page() has to be modified
anyway, let's also make sure the mapped highmem pages are pinned with
kmap_high_get() for the duration of the cache maintenance operation.
Because kunmap() does unmap highmem pages lazily, it was reported by
Gary King <[email protected]> that those pages ended up being unmapped
during cache maintenance on SMP causing segmentation faults.

Nicolas Pitre da68c4eb25 sdio: introduce API for special power management features
This patch series provides the core changes needed to allow SDIO cards to
remain powered and active while the host system is suspended, and let them
wake up the host system when needed.  This is used to implement
wake-on-lan with SDIO wireless cards at the moment.  Patches to add that
support to the libertas driver will be posted separately.

This patch:

Some SDIO cards have the ability to keep on running autonomously when the
host system is suspended, and wake it up when needed.  This however
requires that the host controller preserve power to the card, and
configure itself appropriately for wake-up.

There is however 4 layers of abstractions involved: the host controller
driver, the MMC core code, the SDIO card management code, and the actual
SDIO function driver.  To make things simple and manageable, host drivers
must advertise their PM capabilities with a feature bitmask, then function
drivers can query and set those features from their suspend method.  Then
each layer in the suspend call chain is expected to act upon those bits
accordingly.

Nicolas Pitre 95cdfb72b9 mmc: propagate error codes back from bus drivers' suspend/resume methods
Especially for SDIO drivers which may have special conditions/errors to
report, it is a good thing to relay the returned error code back to upper
layers.

This also allows for the rationalization of the resume path where code to
"remove" a no-longer-existing or replaced card was duplicated into the
MMC, SD and SDIO bus drivers.

In the SDIO case, if a function suspend method returns an error, then all
previously suspended functions are resumed and the error returned.  An
exception is made for -ENOSYS which the core interprets as "we don't
support suspend so just kick the card out for suspend and return success".

When resuming SDIO cards, the core code only validates the manufacturer
and product IDs to make sure the same kind of card is still present before
invoking functions resume methods.  It's the function driver's
responsibility to perform further tests to confirm that the actual same
card is present (same MAC address, etc.) and return an error otherwise.

Nicolas Pitre 17d33e14f7 mmc: core SDIO suspend/resume support
Currently, all SDIO cards are virtually removed upon a suspend, and
completely reprobed upon a resume.  This adds the suspend and resume
methods to the SDIO bus driver so to be able to dispatch those events to
the actual SDIO function drivers for real suspend/resume instead.

All active functions on a card must have a driver with both a suspend and
a resume method though.  Failing that, we fall back to the current
behavior of simply "removing" the card when suspending.

When resuming, we make sure the same card is still inserted by comparing
the vendor and product IDs.  If there is a mismatch, or if there is simply
no card anymore in the slot, then the previous card is "removed" and the
new card is detected.  This is further enhanced with the next patch.
