Mapping the same memory using two different attributes (memory type, shareability, cacheability) is unpredictable. During boot, we encounter a situation when we're updating the kernel's page tables which can lead to dirty cache lines existing in the cache which are subsequently missed. This causes stack corruption, and therefore a crash. Therefore, ensure that the shared and cacheability settings matches the configuration that will be used later; this together with the restriction in early_cachepolicy() ensures that we won't create a mismatch during boot.

ARM unwind is known to compile only with EABI and not-buggy compilers. The problem is not the unwinding information but the -fno-frame-pointer option added as a result of !CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER. Now we check the compiler and raise a #warning in case of wrong compiler. Signed-off-by: Claudio Scordino <claudio@evidence.eu.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

This is the fix for proper reboot of Realview ARM1176PB board when issuing the reboot command. Setting the eighth bit of control register SYS_RESETCTL to 1 to force a soft reset. arch_reset() is modified for realview machines to call machine specific reset function pointers.

Errata 411920 indicates that any "invalidate entire instruction cache" operation can fail if the right conditions are present. This is not limited just to those operations in flush.c, but elsewhere. Place the workaround in the already existing __flush_icache_all() function instead. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

When SPARSEMEM_EXTREME is enabled, memory_present() wants to use bootmem to allocate data structures. However, we call memory_present() after declaring memory to bootmem, but before we've reserved areas. This leads to sparsemem data structures being overwritten later in the kernel's initialization (when slab initializes.) Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

We were using GFP_DMA for masks other than 0xffffffff, which is wrong when some masks are initialized to 0xffffffffffffffff. This caused such masks to obtain memory from the precious DMA pool. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

The signal restarting code was placed on the user stack when OABI compatibility is enabled. Unfortunately, with an EABI NX executable, this results in an attempt to run code from the non-executable stack, which segfaults the application. Fix this by placing the code in the vectors page, along side the signal return code, and directing the application to that code.

The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by /sbin/request-key typically). This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as the dest_keyring member. keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring() to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of instantiation. This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key(). In the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount. The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely runs out of references and gets destroyed. The effect may take some time to show up as the key is destroyed lazily. To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from. This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to: #OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ... #====== ======= =============== =============== =============================== create * test:* * |/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display} negate * * * /bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u and then doing: keyctl add user _display aaaaaaaa @u while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u && keyctl list @u; do keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u; sleep 31; keyctl list @u; done which will oops eventually. Changing the negate line to have @u rather than %S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.
