      ARC: change some branchs to jumps to resolve linkage errors · 6de6066c
      Yuriy Kolerov authored
      When kernel's binary becomes large enough (32M and more) errors
      may occur during the final linkage stage. It happens because
      the build system uses short relocations for ARC  by default.
      This problem may be easily resolved by passing -mlong-calls
      option to GCC to use long absolute jumps (j) instead of short
      relative branchs (b).
      
      But there are fragments of pure assembler code exist which use
      branchs in inappropriate places and cause a linkage error because
      of relocations overflow.
      
      First of these fragments is .fixup insertion in futex.h and
      unaligned.c. It inserts a code in the separate section (.fixup)
      with branch instruction. It leads to the linkage error when
      kernel becomes large.
      
      Second of these fragments is calling scheduler's functions
      (common kernel code) from entry.S of ARC's code. When kernel's
      binary becomes large it may lead to the linkage error because
      scheduler may occur far enough from ARC's code in the final
      binary.

      ARC: make futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() return bimodal · 882a95ae
      Vineet Gupta authored
      Callers of cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() in futex code expect bimodal
      return value:
        !0 (essentially -EFAULT as failure)
         0 (success)
      
      Before this patch, the success return value was old value of futex,
      which could very well be non zero, causing caller to possibly take the
      failure path erroneously.
      
      Fix that by returning 0 for success
      
      (This fix was done back in 2011 for all upstream arches, which ARC
      obviously missed)

      ARC: add barriers to futex code · 31d30c82
      Vineet Gupta authored
      The atomic ops on futex need to provide the full barrier just like
      regular atomics in kernel.
      
      Also remove pagefault_enable/disable in futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic()
      as core code already does that

      ARCv2: Support IO Coherency and permutations involving L1 and L2 caches · f2b0b25a
      Alexey Brodkin authored
      In case of ARCv2 CPU there're could be following configurations
      that affect cache handling for data exchanged with peripherals
      via DMA:
       [1] Only L1 cache exists
       [2] Both L1 and L2 exist, but no IO coherency unit
       [3] L1, L2 caches and IO coherency unit exist
      
      Current implementation takes care of [1] and [2].
      Moreover support of [2] is implemented with run-time check
      for SLC existence which is not super optimal.
      
      This patch introduces support of [3] and rework of DMA ops
      usage. Instead of doing run-time check every time a particular
      DMA op is executed we'll have 3 different implementations of
      DMA ops and select appropriate one during init.
      
      As for IOC support for it we need:
       [a] Implement empty DMA ops because IOC takes care of cache
           coherency with DMAed data
       [b] Route dma_alloc_coherent() via dma_alloc_noncoherent()
           This is required to make IOC work in first place and also
           serves as optimization as LD/ST to coherent buffers can be
           srviced from caches w/o going all the way to memory

      Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
       "Another round of MIPS fixes for 4.2.  No area does particularly stand
        out but we have a two unpleasant ones:
      
         - Kernel ptes are marked with a global bit which allows the kernel to
           share kernel TLB entries between all processes.  For this to work
           both entries of an adjacent even/odd pte pair need to have the
           global bit set.  There has been a subtle race in setting the other
           entry's global bit since ~ 2000 but it take particularly
           pathological workloads that essentially do mostly vmalloc/vfree to
           trigger this.
      
           This pull request fixes the 64-bit case but leaves the case of 32
           bit CPUs with 64 bit ptes unsolved for now.  The unfixed cases
           affect hardware that is not available in the field yet.
      
         - Instruction emulation requires loading instructions from user space
           but the current fast but simplistic approach will fail on pages
           that are PROT_EXEC but !PROT_READ.  For this reason we temporarily
           do not permit this permission and will map pages with PROT_EXEC |
           PROT_READ.
      
        The remainder of this pull request is more or less across the field
        and the short log explains them well"

      Pull drm fixes from Daniel Vetter:
       "One i915 regression fix and a drm core one since Dave's not around,
        both introduced in 4.2 so not cc: stable.
      
        The fix for the warning Ted reported isn't in here yet since he didn't
        yet supply a tested-by and I can't repro this one myself (it's in
        fixup code that needs firmware doing something i915 wouldn't do)"
      
      * tag 'drm-intel-fixes-2015-08-07' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel:
        drm/vblank: Use u32 consistently for vblank counters
        drm/i915: Allow parsing of variable size child device entries from VBT
