CROSS_COMPILE must be setup before using e.g. cc-option (and a few other as-*, cc-*, ld-* macros), else they will check against the wrong compiler when cross-compiling, and may invoke the cross compiler with wrong or suboptimal compiler options.

Thomas Hellstrom authored
A regression was introduced in the 3.3 rc series, commit "drm/ttm: simplify memory accounting for ttm user v2", causing the metadata of buffer objects created using the ttm_bo_create() function to be accounted twice. That causes massive leaks with the vmwgfx driver running for example SpecViewperf Catia-03 test 2, eventually killing the app. Furthermore, the same commit introduces a regression where metadata accounting is leaked if a buffer object is initialized with an illegal size. This is also fixed with this commit. v2: Fixed an error path and removed an unused variable.

Before Kernel 3.5, no one was checking for the return value of drm_connector_attach_property, so we never noticed that we were unable to create some properties. Commit "drm: WARN() when drm_connector_attach_property fails" added a WARN when we fail to create a property, and the transition from "connector properties" to "object properties" changed the warning message a little bit. On i915 machines with many TV connectors we hit the maximum number of properties (since each TV connector uses a lot of properties), so we get a few backtraces in our logs. This commit increases the maximum number of properties to 24 hoping we'll have enough room for everybody. Chris suggested that we convert this code to "lists", but I believe this conversion can come after we make sure people's dmesgs are not spammed by our driver.

When building for non-MMU based classic 68k CPU types (like the 68328 for example) you get a compilation error: CC arch/m68k/kernel/time.o arch/m68k/kernel/time.c:91:5: error: redefinition of ‘arch_gettimeoffset’ include/linux/time.h:145:19: note: previous definition of ‘arch_gettimeoffset’ was here The arch_gettimeoffset() code is included when building for these CPU types, but it shouldn't be.

Fix regresson since the introduction of command stream checking on evergreen (thread referenced below). Issue is cause by ddx allocating bo with formula width*height*bpp while programming the GPU command stream with ALIGN(height, 8). In some case (where page alignment does not hide the extra size bo should be according to height alignment) the kernel will reject the command stream. This patch reprogram the command stream to slice - 1 (slice is a derivative value from height) which avoid rejecting the command stream while keeping the value of command stream checking from a security point of view. This patch also fix wrong computation of layer size for 2D tiled surface. Which should fix issue when 2D color tiling is enabled. This dump the radeon KMS_DRIVER_MINOR so userspace can know if they are on a fixed kernel or not. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/3/80 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50892 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50857 !!!

This reverts commit 9e612a00. It incorrectly finds VGA connectors where none are attached, apparently not noticing that nothing replied to the EDID queries, and happily using the default EDID modes that have nothing to do with actual hardware. That in turn then causes X to fall down to the lowest common denominator, which is usually the default 1024x768 mode that is in the default EDID and pretty much anything supports). I'd suggest that if not relying on the HDP pin, the code should at least check whether it gets valid EDID data back, rather than just assume there's something on the VGA connector.

This reverts commit 7732a557 (and commit 3f50fff4, which was a follow-up cleanup). We're chasing an elusive bug that Dave Jones can apparently reproduce using his system call fuzzer tool, and that looks like some kind of locking ordering problem on the directory i_mutex chain. Our i_mutex locking is rather complex, and depends on the topological ordering of the directories, which is why we have been very wary of splicing directory entries around. Of course, we really don't want to ever see aliased unconnected directories anyway, so none of this should ever happen, but this revert aims to basically get us back to a known older state. Bruce points to some of the previous discussion at http://marc.info/?i=<20110310105821.GE22723@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> and in particular a long post from Neil: http://marc.info/?i=<20110311150749.2fa2be66@notabene.brown> It should be noted that it's possible that Dave's problems come from other changes altohgether, including possibly just the fact that Dave constantly is teachning his fuzzer new tricks. So what appears to be a new bug could in fact be an old one that just gets newly triggered, but reverting these patches as "still under heavy discussion" is the right thing regardless.

The reason for this is that those structs are not defined in the init section whereas the rest of the code in nmi_selftest.c is. To resolve this, I created a new #define, register_nmi_handler_initonly, that tags the struct as __initdata to resolve the mismatch. This #define should only be used in rare situations where the register/unregister is called during init of the kernel.

This fixes a problem which can causes kernel oopses while loading a kernel module. According to the PowerPC EABI specification, GPR r11 is assigned the dedicated function to point to the previous stack frame. In the powerpc-specific kernel module loader, do_plt_call() (in arch/powerpc/kernel/module_32.c), GPR r11 is also used to generate trampoline code. This combination crashes the kernel, in the case where the compiler chooses to use a helper function for saving GPRs on entry, and the module loader has placed the .init.text section far away from the .text section, meaning that it has to generate a trampoline for functions in the .init.text section to call the GPR save helper. Because the trampoline trashes r11, references to the stack frame using r11 can cause an oops. The fix just uses GPR r12 instead of GPR r11 for generating the trampoline code. According to the statements from Freescale, this is safe from an EABI perspective. I've tested the fix for kernel 2.6.33 on MPC8541.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2 broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the 'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode for selective broadcast. But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.

9fb48c74 ("params: add 3rd arg to option handler callback signature") added similar lines to dmesg: initlevel:0=early, 4 registered initcalls initlevel:1=core, 31 registered initcalls initlevel:2=postcore, 11 registered initcalls initlevel:3=arch, 7 registered initcalls initlevel:4=subsys, 40 registered initcalls initlevel:5=fs, 30 registered initcalls initlevel:6=device, 250 registered initcalls initlevel:7=late, 35 registered initcalls but they don't contain any info for the general user staring at dmesg. I'm very doubtful the count of initcalls registered per level helps anyone so drop that output completely.

Commit 026cee00 "params: <level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used to, early in start_kernel(). We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level 0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice. (Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does). Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls. Reported-by: Benoît Thébaudeau <benoit.thebaudeau@advansee.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: stable@kernel.org
