      ARC: mm: allow mprotect to make stack mappings executable · 93312b6d
      Vineet Gupta authored 
      mprotect(EXEC) was failing for stack mappings as default vm flags was
missing MAYEXEC.

This was triggered by glibc test suite nptl/tst-execstack testcase

What is surprising is that despite running LTP for years on, we didn't
catch this issue as it lacks a directed test case.

gcc dejagnu tests with nested functions also requiring exec stack work
fine though because they rely on the GNU_STACK segment spit out by
compiler and handled in kernel elf loader.

This glibc case is different as the stack is non exec to begin with and
a dlopen of shared lib with GNU_STACK segment triggers the exec stack
proceedings using a mprotect(PROT_EXEC) which was broken.

      ARC: Fix CONFIG_SWAP · 6e376114
      Alexey Brodkin authored 
      swap was broken on ARC due to silly copy-paste issue.

We encode offset from swapcache page in __swp_entry() as (off << 13) but
were not decoding back in __swp_offset() as (off >> 13) - it was still
(off << 13).

This finally fixes swap usage on ARC.

      ARC: configs: Remove CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE from defconfigs · 64234961
      Alexey Brodkin authored 
      We used to have pre-set CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE with local path
to intramfs in ARC defconfigs. This was quite convenient for
in-house development but not that convenient for newcomers
who obviusly don't have folders like "arc_initramfs" next to
the Linux source tree. Which leads to quite surprising failure
of defconfig building:
------------------------------->8-----------------------------
  ../scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh: Cannot open '../../arc_initramfs_hs/'
../usr/Makefile:57: recipe for target 'usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz' failed
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
------------------------------->8-----------------------------

So now when more and more people start to deal with our defconfigs
let's make their life easier with removal of CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE.

      ARC: Improve cmpxchg syscall implementation · e8708786
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      This is used in configs lacking hardware atomics to emulate atomic r-m-w
for user space, implemented by disabling preemption in kernel.

However there are issues in current implementation:

1. Process not terminated if invalid user pointer passed:
   i.e. __get_user() failed.

2. The reason for this patch was __put_user() failure not being handled
   either, specifically for the COW break scenario.
   The zero page is initially wired up and read from __get_user()
   succeeds. A subsequent write by __put_user() induces a
   Protection Violation, but COW can't finish as Linux page fault
   handler is disabled due to preempt disable.
   And what's worse is we silently return the stale value to user space.
   Fix this specific case by re-enabling preemption and explicitly
   fixing up the fault and retrying the whole sequence over.

      ARC: [plat-hsdk]: Configure APB GPIO controller on ARC HSDK platform · ec58ba16
      Gustavo Pimentel authored 
      In case of HSDK we have intermediate INTC in for of DW APB GPIO controller
which is used as a de-bounce logic for interrupt wires that come from
outside the board.

We cannot use existing "irq-dw-apb-ictl" driver here because all input
lines are routed to corresponding output lines but not muxed into one
line (this is configured in RTL and we cannot change this in software).

But even if we add such a feature to "irq-dw-apb-ictl" driver that won't
benefit us as higher-level INTC (in case of HSDK it is IDU) anyways has
per-input control so adding fully-controller intermediate INTC will only
bring some overhead on interrupt processing but no other benefits.

Thus we just do one-time configuration of DW APB GPIO controller and
forget about it.

Based on implementation available on arch/arc/plat-axs10x/axs10x.c file.

      ARC: Explicitly add -mmedium-calls to CFLAGS · 74c11e30
      Alexey Brodkin authored 
      GCC built for arc*-*-linux has "-mmedium-calls" implicitly enabled by default
thus we don't see any problems during Linux kernel compilation.
----------------------------->8------------------------
arc-linux-gcc -mcpu=arc700 -Q --help=target | grep calls
  -mlong-calls                          [disabled]
  -mmedium-calls                        [enabled]
----------------------------->8------------------------

But if we try to use so-called Elf32 toolchain with GCC configured for
arc*-*-elf* then we'd see the following failure:
----------------------------->8------------------------
init/do_mounts.o: In function 'init_rootfs':
do_mounts.c:(.init.text+0x108): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARC_S21W_PCREL
against symbol 'unregister_filesystem' defined in .text section in fs/filesystems.o

arc-elf32-ld: final link failed: Symbol needs debug section which does not exist
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
----------------------------->8------------------------

That happens because neither "-mmedium-calls" nor "-mlong-calls" are enabled in
Elf32 GCC:
----------------------------->8------------------------
arc-elf32-gcc -mcpu=arc700 -Q --help=target | grep calls
  -mlong-calls                          [disabled]
  -mmedium-calls                        [disabled]
----------------------------->8------------------------

Now to make it possible to use Elf32 toolchain for building Linux kernel
we're explicitly add "-mmedium-calls" to CFLAGS.

And since we add "-mmedium-calls" to the global CFLAGS there's no point in
having per-file copies thus removing them.

      Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro.

 - fix io_destroy()/aio_complete() race

 - the vfs_open() change to get rid of open_check_o_direct() boilerplate
   was nice, but buggy. Al has a patch avoiding a revert, but that's
   definitely not a last-day fodder, so for now revert it is...

      Revert "fs: fold open_check_o_direct into do_dentry_open" · af04fadc
      Al Viro authored 
      This reverts commit cab64df1.

Having vfs_open() in some cases drop the reference to
struct file combined with

	error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
	if (error) {
		put_filp(f);
		return ERR_PTR(error);
	}
	return f;

is flat-out wrong.  It used to be

		error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
		if (!error) {
			/* from now on we need fput() to dispose of f */
			error = open_check_o_direct(f);
			if (error) {
				fput(f);
				f = ERR_PTR(error);
			}
		} else {
			put_filp(f);
			f = ERR_PTR(error);
		}

and sure, having that open_check_o_direct() boilerplate gotten rid of is
nice, but not that way...

Worse, another call chain (via finish_open()) is FUBAR now wrt
FILE_OPENED handling - in that case we get error returned, with file
already hit by fput() *AND* FILE_OPENED not set.  Guess what happens in
path_openat(), when it hits

	if (!(opened & FILE_OPENED)) {
		BUG_ON(!error);
		put_filp(file);
	}

The root cause of all that crap is that the callers of do_dentry_open()
have no way to tell which way did it fail; while that could be fixed up
(by passing something like int *opened to do_dentry_open() and have it
marked if we'd called ->open()), it's probably much too late in the
cycle to do so right now.
