2010-08-23sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.David S. Miller
This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some devices. With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work. In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup. The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical. It used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap table. So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked into the main kernel image. But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this indirect bounce buffering. Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K smaller. It was also discovered during these conversions that the implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was fixed here as well. Currently that interface is not in use.

2010-08-18sparc64: Make lock backoff really a NOP on UP builds.David S. Miller
As noticed by Mikulas Patocka, the backoff macros don't completely nop out for UP builds, we still get a branch always and a delay slot nop. Fix this by making the branch to the backoff spin loop selective, then we can nop out the spin loop completely. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-08-17sparc64: Make rwsems 64-bit.David S. Miller
Basically tip-off the powerpc code, use a 64-bit type and atomic64_t interfaces for the implementation. This gets us off of the by-hand asm code I wrote, which frankly I think probably ruins I-cache hit rates. The idea was the keep the call chains less deep, but anything taking the rw-semaphores probably is also calling other stuff and therefore already has allocated a stack-frame. So no real stack frame savings ever. Ben H. has posted patches to make powerpc use 64-bit too and with some abstractions we can probably use a shared header file somewhere. With suggestions from Sam Ravnborg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-08-17sparc64: Fix rwsem constant bug leading to hangs.David S. Miller
As noticed by Linus, it is critical that some of the rwsem constants be signed. Yet, hex constants are unsigned unless explicitly casted or negated. The most critical one is RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS. This bug was exacerbated by commit 424acaaeb3a3932d64a9b4bd59df6cf72c22d8f3 ("rwsem: wake queued readers when writer blocks on active read lock") Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-08-16sparc: Really fix "console=" for serial consoles.David S. Miller
If a video head and keyboard are hooked up, specifying "console=ttyS0" or similar to use a serial console will not work properly. The key issue is that we must register all serial console capable devices with register_console(), otherwise the command line specified device won't be found. The sun serial drivers would only register themselves as console devices if the OpenFirmware specified console device node matched. To fix this part we now unconditionally get the serial console register by setting serial_drv->cons always. Secondarily we must not add_preferred_console() using the firmware provided console setting if the user gaven an override on the kernel command line using "console=" The "primary framebuffer" matching logic was always triggering o n openfirmware device node match, make it not when a command line override was given.

With this change, the arch/tile Makefile will only check for a valid combination of CROSS_COMPILE vs "uname -m" for a few common targets that are typically the ones we get wrong (vmlinux, all, and modules). The change handles the case of an empty "make" goal like "make all". Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2010-08-15mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard pageLinus Torvalds
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user space. It does this by: - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized "mlockall()" in user space. By not showing the guard page as part of the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it. - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock the guard page. That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page, so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place. It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in /proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file. Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
