      A few more things this time around.  The only thing warranting some
      commentry is the modpost change, which allows folk building a Thumb2
      enabled kernel to see section mismatch warnings.  This is why many
      weren't noticed with OMAP.

      sys_poll: fix incorrect type for 'timeout' parameter · faf30900
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The 'poll()' system call timeout parameter is supposed to be 'int', not
      'long'.
      
      Now, the reason this matters is that right now 32-bit compat mode is
      broken on at least x86-64, because the 32-bit code just calls
      'sys_poll()' directly on x86-64, and the 32-bit argument will have been
      zero-extended, turning a signed 'int' into a large unsigned 'long'
      value.
      
      We could just introduce a 'compat_sys_poll()' function for this, and
      that may eventually be what we have to do, but since the actual standard
      poll() semantics is *supposed* to be 'int', and since at least on x86-64
      glibc sign-extends the argument before invocing the system call (so
      nobody can actually use a 64-bit timeout value in user space _anyway_,
      even in 64-bit binaries), the simpler solution would seem to be to just
      fix the definition of the system call to match what it should have been
      from the very start.
      
      If it turns out that somebody somehow circumvents the user-level libc
      64-bit sign extension and actually uses a large unsigned 64-bit timeout
      despite that not being how poll() is supposed to work, we will need to
      do the compat_sys_poll() approach.

      asm-generic: architecture independent readq/writeq for 32bit environment · 797a796a
      Hitoshi Mitake authored
      This provides unified readq()/writeq() helper functions for 32-bit
      drivers.
      
      For some cases, readq/writeq without atomicity is harmful, and order of
      io access has to be specified explicitly.  So in this patch, new two
      header files which contain non-atomic readq/writeq are added.
      
       - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> provides non-atomic readq/
         writeq with the order of lower address -> higher address
      
       - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-hi-lo.h> provides non-atomic readq/
         writeq with reversed order
      
      This allows us to remove some readq()s that were added drivers when the
      default non-atomic ones were removed in commit dbee8a0a ("x86:
      remove 32-bit versions of readq()/writeq()")
      
      The drivers which need readq/writeq but can do with the non-atomic ones
      must add the line:
      
        #include <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> /* or hi-lo.h */
      
      But this will be nop in 64-bit environments, and no other #ifdefs are
      required.  So I believe that this patch can solve the problem of
       1. driver-specific readq/writeq
       2. atomicity and order of io access
      
      This patch is tested with building allyesconfig and allmodconfig as
      ARCH=x86 and ARCH=i386 on top of tip/master.

      (They both provided patches to fix it)
      
      This patch also (at the request of the list) fixes the fact that
      ARM has both LE and BE versions however the audit code was called as if
      it was always BE.  If audit userspace were to try to interpret the bits
      it got from a LE system it would obviously do so incorrectly.  Fix this
      by using the right arch flag on the right system.

      ARM/PCI: Remove ARM's duplicate definition of 'pcibios_max_latency' · e23e8c06
      Myron Stowe authored
      The patch series to re-factor PCI's 'latency timer' setup (re:
      http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131983853831049&w=2) forgot to
      remove the ARM specific definition of 'pcibios_max_latency' once such
      had been moved into the pci core resulting in ARM related compile
      errors -
        drivers/built-in.o:(.data+0x230): multiple definition of
        `pcibios_max_latency'
        arch/arm/common/built-in.o:(.data+0x40c): first defined here
        make[1]: *** [vmlinux.o] Error 1
      
      In the series, patch 2/16 (commit 168c8619) converted the ARM
      specific version of 'pcibios_set_master()' to a non-inlined version.
      This was done in preperation for hosting it up into PCI's core, which
      was done in patch 10/16 (commit 96c55900) of the series (and
      where the removal of ARM's 'pcibios_max_latency' was overlooked).

      ARM: 7336/1: smp_twd: Don't register CPUFREQ notifiers if local timers are not initialised · 910ba598
      Santosh Shilimkar authored
      Current ARM local timer code registers CPUFREQ notifiers even in case
      the twd_timer_setup() isn't called. That seems to be wrong and
      would eventually lead to kernel crash on the CPU frequency transitions
      on the SOCs where the local timer doesn't exist or broken because of
      hardware BUG. Fix it by testing twd_evt and *__this_cpu_ptr(twd_evt).
      
      The issue was observed with v3.3-rc3 and building an OMAP2+ kernel
      on OMAP3 SOC which doesn't have TWD.
      
      Below is the dump for reference :

      (And define it properly for x86-32, which had its 'current_task'
      declaration in separate from x86-64)
      
      Bitten by my dislike for modules on the machines I use, and the fact
      that apparently nobody else actually wanted to test the patches I sent
      out.
      
      Snif. Nobody else cares.
      
      Anyway, we probably should uninline the 'kernel_fpu_begin()' function
      that is what modules actually use and that references this, but this is
      the minimal fix for now.

      i387: support lazy restore of FPU state · 7e16838d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This makes us recognize when we try to restore FPU state that matches
      what we already have in the FPU on this CPU, and avoids the restore
      entirely if so.
      
      To do this, we add two new data fields:
      
       - a percpu 'fpu_owner_task' variable that gets written any time we
         update the "has_fpu" field, and thus acts as a kind of back-pointer
         to the task that owns the CPU.  The exception is when we save the FPU
         state as part of a context switch - if the save can keep the FPU
         state around, we leave the 'fpu_owner_task' variable pointing at the
         task whose FP state still remains on the CPU.
      
       - a per-thread 'last_cpu' field, that indicates which CPU that thread
         used its FPU on last.  We update this on every context switch
         (writing an invalid CPU number if the last context switch didn't
         leave the FPU in a lazily usable state), so we know that *that*
         thread has done nothing else with the FPU since.
      
      These two fields together can be used when next switching back to the
      task to see if the CPU still matches: if 'fpu_owner_task' matches the
      task we are switching to, we know that no other task (or kernel FPU
      usage) touched the FPU on this CPU in the meantime, and if the current
      CPU number matches the 'last_cpu' field, we know that this thread did no
      other FP work on any other CPU, so the FPU state on the CPU must match
      what was saved on last context switch.
      
      In that case, we can avoid the 'f[x]rstor' entirely, and just clear the
      CR0.TS bit.

      i387: use 'restore_fpu_checking()' directly in task switching code · 80ab6f1e
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This inlines what is usually just a couple of instructions, but more
      importantly it also fixes the theoretical error case (can that FPU
      restore really ever fail? Maybe we should remove the checking).
      
      We can't start sending signals from within the scheduler, we're much too
      deep in the kernel and are holding the runqueue lock etc.  So don't
      bother even trying.

      i387: fix up some fpu_counter confusion · cea20ca3
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This makes sure we clear the FPU usage counter for newly created tasks,
      just so that we start off in a known state (for example, don't try to
      preload the FPU state on the first task switch etc).
      
      It also fixes a thinko in when we increment the fpu_counter at task
      switch time, introduced by commit 34ddc81a ("i387: re-introduce FPU
      state preloading at context switch time").  We should increment the
      *new* task fpu_counter, not the old task, and only if we decide to use
      that state (whether lazily or preloaded).

      These are the bug fixes that have accumulated since 3.3-rc3 in arm-soc.
      The majority of them are regression fixes for stuff that broke during
      the merge 3.3 window.
      
      The notable ones are:
      
      * The at91 ata drivers both broke because of an earlier cleanup patch that
        some other patches were based on. Jean-Christophe decided to remove
        the legacy at91_ide driver and fix the new-style at91-pata driver while
        keeping the cleanup patch. I almost rejected the patches for being too
        late and too big but in the end decided to accept them because they
        fix a regression.
      
      * A patch fixing build breakage from the sysdev-to-device conversion
        colliding with other changes touches a number of mach-s3c files.
      
      * b0654037 "ARM: orion: Fix Orion5x GPIO regression from MPP cleanup"
        is a mechanical change that unfortunately touches a lot of lines
        that should up in the diffstat.

      i387: re-introduce FPU state preloading at context switch time · 34ddc81a
      Linus Torvalds authored
      After all the FPU state cleanups and finally finding the problem that
      caused all our FPU save/restore problems, this re-introduces the
      preloading of FPU state that was removed in commit b3b0870e ("i387:
      do not preload FPU state at task switch time").
      
      However, instead of simply reverting the removal, this reimplements
      preloading with several fixes, most notably
      
       - properly abstracted as a true FPU state switch, rather than as
         open-coded save and restore with various hacks.
      
         In particular, implementing it as a proper FPU state switch allows us
         to optimize the CR0.TS flag accesses: there is no reason to set the
         TS bit only to then almost immediately clear it again.  CR0 accesses
         are quite slow and expensive, don't flip the bit back and forth for
         no good reason.
      
       - Make sure that the same model works for both x86-32 and x86-64, so
         that there are no gratuitous differences between the two due to the
         way they save and restore segment state differently due to
         architectural differences that really don't matter to the FPU state.
      
       - Avoid exposing the "preload" state to the context switch routines,
         and in particular allow the concept of lazy state restore: if nothing
         else has used the FPU in the meantime, and the process is still on
         the same CPU, we can avoid restoring state from memory entirely, just
         re-expose the state that is still in the FPU unit.
      
         That optimized lazy restore isn't actually implemented here, but the
         infrastructure is set up for it.  Of course, older CPU's that use
         'fnsave' to save the state cannot take advantage of this, since the
         state saving also trashes the state.
      
      In other words, there is now an actual _design_ to the FPU state saving,
      rather than just random historical baggage.  Hopefully it's easier to
      follow as a result.

      i387: move TS_USEDFPU flag from thread_info to task_struct · f94edacf
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This moves the bit that indicates whether a thread has ownership of the
      FPU from the TS_USEDFPU bit in thread_info->status to a word of its own
      (called 'has_fpu') in task_struct->thread.has_fpu.
      
      This fixes two independent bugs at the same time:
      
       - changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty
         problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to
         be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was
         supposed to indicate).
      
         So perfectly valid code could (and did) do
      
      	ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK;
      
         and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store
         instructions.  Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task
         switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The
         change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store.
      
         In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field
         was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to
         generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus
         happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low
         fat and preemption-safe.
      
       - On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts
         and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because
         x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the
         separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd
         thread_info copy aliases.
      
         This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to
         look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at
         interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the
         heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel
         away the FPU state.
      
         (It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers).
      
      It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural
      for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they
      tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie
      scheduling).  And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is
      found there too.
      
      Thanks to Arjan Van De Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for pointing us to
      the %esp issue.

      i387: do not preload FPU state at task switch time · b3b0870e
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Yes, taking the trap to re-load the FPU/MMX state is expensive, but so
      is spending several days looking for a bug in the state save/restore
      code.  And the preload code has some rather subtle interactions with
      both paravirtualization support and segment state restore, so it's not
      nearly as simple as it should be.
      
      Also, now that we no longer necessarily depend on a single bit (ie
      TS_USEDFPU) for keeping track of the state of the FPU, we migth be able
      to do better.  If we are really switching between two processes that
      keep touching the FP state, save/restore is inevitable, but in the case
      of having one process that does most of the FPU usage, we may actually
      be able to do much better than the preloading.
      
      In particular, we may be able to keep track of which CPU the process ran
      on last, and also per CPU keep track of which process' FP state that CPU
      has.  For modern CPU's that don't destroy the FPU contents on save time,
      that would allow us to do a lazy restore by just re-enabling the
      existing FPU state - with no restore cost at all!

      eCryptfs: Copy up lower inode attrs after setting lower xattr · 545d6809
      Tyler Hicks authored
      After passing through a ->setxattr() call, eCryptfs needs to copy the
      inode attributes from the lower inode to the eCryptfs inode, as they
      may have changed in the lower filesystem's ->setxattr() path.
      
      One example is if an extended attribute containing a POSIX Access
      Control List is being set. The new ACL may cause the lower filesystem to
      modify the mode of the lower inode and the eCryptfs inode would need to
