Since page cache pages are now considered 'dirty' by default, the cache flushing is handled via __flush_dcache_page() when a page gets mapped to user space. Highmem pages on VIVT systems are flushed during kunmap() and flush_kernel_dcache_page() was already a no-op in this case. ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_KERNEL_DCACHE_PAGE is still defined since ARM needs specific implementations for flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range().

ARMv7 processors like Cortex-A9 broadcast the cache maintenance operations in hardware. This patch allows the flush_dcache_page/update_mmu_cache pair to work in lazy flushing mode similar to the UP case. Note that cache flushing on SMP systems now takes place via the set_pte_at() call (__sync_icache_dcache) and there is no race with other CPUs executing code from the new PTE before the cache flushing took place.

On SMP systems, there is a small chance of a PTE becoming visible to a different CPU before the current cache maintenance operations in update_mmu_cache(). To avoid this, cache maintenance must be handled in set_pte_at() (similar to IA-64 and PowerPC). This patch provides a unified VIPT cache handling mechanism and implements the __sync_icache_dcache() function for ARMv6 onwards architectures. It is called from set_pte_at() and replaces the update_mmu_cache(). The latter is still used on VIVT hardware where a vm_area_struct is required.

There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page() (several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache(). The patch also sets the PG_arch_1 bit in the DMA cache maintenance function to avoid additional cache flushing in update_mmu_cache().

Commit d73cd428 forced non-lazy cache flushing of highmem pages in flush_dcache_page(). This isn't needed since __flush_dcache_page() (called lazily from update_mmu_cache) can handle highmem pages (fixed by commit 7e5a69e8).

If a signal hits us outside of a syscall and another gets delivered when we are in sigreturn (e.g. because it had been in sa_mask for the first one and got sent to us while we'd been in the first handler), we have a chance of returning from the second handler to location one insn prior to where we ought to return. If r0 happens to contain -513 (-ERESTARTNOINTR), sigreturn will get confused into doing restart syscall song and dance. Incredible joy to debug, since it manifests as random, infrequent and very hard to reproduce double execution of instructions in userland code... The fix is simple - mark it "don't bother with restarts" in wrapper, i.e. set r8 to 0 in sys_sigreturn and sys_rt_sigreturn wrappers, suppressing the syscall restart handling on return from these guys. They can't legitimately return a restart-worthy error anyway. Testcase: #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <errno.h> void f(int n) { __asm__ __volatile__( "ldr r0, [%0]\n" "b 1f\n" "b 2f\n" "1:b .\n" "2:\n" : : "r"(&n)); } void handler1(int sig) { } void handler2(int sig) { raise(1); } void handler3(int sig) { exit(0); } main() { struct sigaction s = {.sa_handler = handler2}; struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} }; struct itimerval t2 = { .it_value = {2} }; signal(1, handler1); sigemptyset(&s.sa_mask); sigaddset(&s.sa_mask, 1); sigaction(SIGALRM, &s, NULL); signal(SIGVTALRM, handler3); setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &t1, NULL); setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &t2, NULL); f(-513); /* -ERESTARTNOINTR */ write(1, "buggered\n", 9); return 1; } Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If an array with 1.x metadata is assembled with the last disk missing, md doesn't properly record the fact that the disk was missing. This is unlikely to cause a real problem as the event count will be different to the count on the missing disk so it won't be included in the array. However it could still cause confusion. So make sure we clear all the relevant slots, not just the early ones. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Now that we depend on md_update_sb to clear variable bits in mddev->flags (rather than trying not to set them) it is important to always call md_update_sb when appropriate. md_check_recovery has this job but explicitly avoids it for ->external metadata arrays. This is not longer appropraite, or needed. However we do want to avoid taking the mddev lock if only MD_CHANGE_PENDING is set as that is not cleared by md_update_sb for external-metadata arrays.

drivers/firewire/nosy* is a stand-alone driver that does not depend on CONFIG_FIREWIRE. Hence let make descend into drivers/firewire/ also if that option is off. The stand-alone driver drivers/ieee1394/init_ohci1394_dma* will soon be moved into drivers/firewire/ too and will require the same makefile fix. Side effect: As mentioned in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586172#c24 this influences the order in which either firewire-ohci or ohci1394 is going to be bound to an OHCI-1394 controller in case of a modular build of both drivers if no modprobe blacklist entries are configured. However, a user of such a setup cannot expect deterministic behavior anyway. The Kconfig help and the migration guide at ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org recommend blacklist entries when a dual IEEE 1394 stack build is being used. (The coexistence period of the two stacks is planned to end soon.) Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
