Round the initrd memblock reservation to page boundaries to prevent other data sharing the initrd pages. This prevents an allocation possibly overlapping with the initrd, which would later get trampled on in free_initrd_mem(). Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

The tegra DRM driver produces a harmless warning when built for NOMMU: drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/gem.c: In function 'tegra_drm_mmap': drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/gem.c:508:12: unused variable 'prot' This is because pgprot_writecombine() on ARM returns a constant and ignores its argument. The version in asm-generic doesn't have that problem, so let's use that one instead. We don't actually care about the value on NOMMU, and this is consistent with what some other architectures do.

According to the spec 'ELF for the ARM Architecture' (IHI 0044E), addends for R_ARM_PREL31 relocations are 31-bit signed quantities, so we need to sign extend the value to 32 bits before it can be used as an offset in the calculation of the relocated value. We have not been bitten by this because these relocations are usually emitted against the start of a section, which means the addends never assume negative values in practice. But it is a bug nonetheless, so fix it. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

For MMU configurations, VECTORS_BASE is always 0xffff0000, a macro definition will suffice. For no-MMU, exception base address is dynamically determined in subsequent patches. To preserve bisectability, now make the macro applicable for no-MMU scenario too. Thanks to 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure that found the bisectability issue. This macro will be restricted to MMU case upon dynamically determining exception base address for no-MMU. Once exception address is handled dynamically for no-MMU, VECTORS_BASE can be removed from Kconfig.

x86 has an option: CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL to do additional checks on virt_to_phys calls. The goal is to catch users who are calling virt_to_phys on non-linear addresses immediately. This includes caller using __virt_to_phys() on image addresses instead of __pa_symbol(). This is a generally useful debug feature to spot bad code (particulary in drivers).

adjust_lowmem_bounds is responsible for setting up the boundary for lowmem/highmem. This needs to be setup before memblock reservations can occur. At the time memblock reservations can occur, memory can also be removed from the system. The lowmem/highmem boundary and end of memory may be affected by this but it is currently not recalculated. On some systems this may be harmless, on others this may result in incorrect ranges being passed to the main memory allocator. Correct this by recalculating the lowmem/highmem boundary after all reservations have been made.

In commit 76624175 ("arm64: uaccess: consistently check object sizes"), the object size checks are moved outside the access_ok() so that bad destinations are detected before hitting the "memset(dest, 0, size)" in the copy_from_user() failure path. This makes the same change for arm, with attention given to possibly extracting the uaccess routines into a common header file for all architectures in the future.

Clean up arch/arm/mm/Kconfig a little to provide a symbol which indicates whether the CPU may support the Thumb instruction set.

The following patch was sketched by Russell in response to my crashes on the PB11MPCore after the patch for software-based priviledged no access support for ARMv8.1. See this thread: http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=144051749807214&w=2 I am unsure what is going on, I suspect everyone involved in the discussion is. I just want to repost this to get the discussion restarted, as I still have to apply this patch with every kernel iteration to get my PB11MPCore Realview running. Testing by Neil Armstrong on the Oxnas NAS has revealed that this bug exist also on that widely deployed hardware, so we are probably currently regressing all ARM11MPCore systems.

Due to the way kbuild works, this header was unintentionally exported back in 2013 when it was created, despite it not being in a uapi/ directory. This is very non-intuitive behaviour by Kbuild. However, we've had this include exported to userland for almost four years, and searching google for "ARM types.h __UINTPTR_TYPE__" gives no hint that anyone has complained about it. So, let's make it officially exported in this state. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

6b101e2a ("mm/CMA: fix boot regression due to physical address of high_memory") added checks to use __pa_nodebug on x86 since CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL complains about high_memory not being linearlly mapped. arm64 is now getting support for CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL as well. Rather than add an explosion of arches to the #ifdef, switch to an alternate method to calculate the physical start of highmem using the page before highmem starts.

REMAP_VECTORS_TO_RAM depends on DRAM_BASE, but since DRAM_BASE is a hex, REMAP_VECTORS_TO_RAM could never get enabled. Also depending on DRAM_BASE is redundant as whenever REMAP_VECTORS_TO_RAM makes itself available to Kconfig, DRAM_BASE also is available as the Kconfig gets sourced on !MMU.

On APQ8060, the kernel crashes in arch_hw_breakpoint_init, taking an undefined instruction trap within write_wb_reg. This is because Scorpion CPUs erroneously appear to set DBGPRSR.SPD when WFI is issued, even if the core is not powered down. When DBGPRSR.SPD is set, breakpoint and watchpoint registers are treated as undefined. It's possible to trigger similar crashes later on from userspace, by requesting the kernel to install a breakpoint or watchpoint, as we can go idle at any point between the reset of the debug registers and their later use. This has always been the case. Given that this has always been broken, no-one has complained until now, and there is no clear workaround, disable hardware breakpoints and watchpoints on Scorpion to avoid these issues.
