Classic 32-bit PowerPC CPUs, and the early 64-bit PowerPC CPUs, don't provide a way to prevent execution from readable pages, that is, the MMU doesn't distinguish between data reads and instruction reads, although a different exception is taken for faults in data accesses and instruction accesses. Commit 9ba4ace3, in the course of fixing another bug, added a check that meant that a page fault due to an instruction access would fail if the vma did not have the VM_EXEC flag set. This gives an inconsistent enforcement on these CPUs of the no-execute status of the vma (since reading from the page is sufficient to allow subsequent execution from it), and causes old versions of ppc32 glibc (2.2 and earlier) to fail, since they rely on executing the word before the GOT but don't have it marked executable. This fixes the problem by allowing execution from readable (or writable) areas on CPUs which do not provide separate control over data and instruction reads.

Move firmware feature initialisation from pSeries_init_early to the earlier pSeries_probe_hypertas so they are initialised before firmware feature fixups are applied. Currently firmware feature sections are only used for iSeries which initialises the these features much earlier. This is a bug in waiting on pSeries. Also adds some whitespace fixups.

In some configuration, xmon help string is larger than xmon_printf buffer. We need not to use printf. This patch adds xmon_puts and change to use it to show help string. Signed-off-by: Kou Ishizaki <kou.ishizaki@toshiba.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which is wrong. The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias or similar to a full path name to the console device. Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a colon at the end of the path. The option area is used to specify which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a device node drives multiple ports. 'a' is assumed if the option specification is missing. This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator. The 'output-device' property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'. Instead we saw it as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console. The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too. Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

We ignore all the generated files called "vmlinux*" from the top-level gitignore, but that also ends up catching a few files that we track, and that people do edit. Notably the "vmlinux.lds.S" file, that each architecture has. You can always use "git add -f" to override the ignore file, but we might as well just make it explicit for this file.

The VBI DMA is handled in a special way and is marked with a bit. However, that bit was set at the wrong time and could be cleared by mistake if a PCM (or other) DMA request would arrive before the VBI DMA was completed. So on completion of the VBI DMA the driver no longer knew that that DMA transfer was for VBI data. And this in turn caused havoc with the card's DMA engine.
