Adapt adi ethernet driver to changes in bfin_get_ether_addr() from arch/blackfin. bfin_get_ether_addr() returns now a state. Set a random mac address via new eth_hw_addr_random() in case the return value is not 0. Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get changed via .ndo_set_mac_address. v2: change the logic to reduce unneeded checks Signed-off-by: Danny Kukawka <danny.kukawka@bisect.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

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. * tag 'fixes-3.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc: (28 commits) ARM: at91: drop ide driver in favor of the pata one pata/at91: use newly introduced SMC accessors ARM: at91: add accessor to manage SMC ARM: at91:rtc/rtc-at91sam9: ioremap register bank ARM: at91: USB AT91 gadget registration for module ep93xx: fix build of vision_ep93xx.c ARM: OMAP2xxx: PM: fix OMAP2xxx-specific UART idle bug in v3.3 ARM: orion: Fix USB phy for orion5x.

Here are a few more fixes for powerpc. Some are regressions, the rest is simple/obvious/nasty enough that I deemed it good to go now. Here's also step one of deprecating legacy iSeries support: we are removing it from the main defconfig. Nobody seems to be using it anymore and the code is nasty to maintain, (involves horrible hacks in various low level areas of the kernel) so we plan to actually rip it out at some point. For now let's just avoid building it by default. Stephen will proceed to do the actual removal later (probably 3.4 or 3.5). * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/perf: power_pmu_start restores incorrect values, breaking frequency events powerpc/adb: Use set_current_state() powerpc: Disable interrupts early in Program Check powerpc: Remove legacy iSeries from ppc64_defconfig powerpc/fsl/pci: Fix PCIe fixup regression powerpc: Fix kernel log of oops/panic instruction dump

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.

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.

The AMD K7/K8 CPUs don't save/restore FDP/FIP/FOP unless an exception is pending. In order to not leak FIP state from one process to another, we need to do a floating point load after the fxsave of the old process, and before the fxrstor of the new FPU state. That resets the state to the (uninteresting) kernel load, rather than some potentially sensitive user information. We used to do this directly after the FPU state save, but that is actually very inconvenient, since it (a) corrupts what is potentially perfectly good FPU state that we might want to lazy avoid restoring later and (b) on x86-64 it resulted in a very annoying ordering constraint, where "__unlazy_fpu()" in the task switch needs to be delayed until after the DS segment has been reloaded just to get the new DS value. Coupling it to the fxrstor instead of the fxsave automatically avoids both of these issues, and also ensures that we only do it when actually necessary (the FP state after a save may never actually get used). It's simply a much more natural place for the leaked state cleanup. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

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!
