arm: remove wrong CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL ifdef

2017-07-12T14:53:55Z

commit f70b281b59a871545362a494d99a644153fbbaac upstream. The sysfs cpu_capacity entry for each CPU has nothing to do with PROC_FS, nor it's in /proc/sys path. Remove such ifdef.

ARM: 8667/3: Fix memory attribute inconsistencies when using fixmap

2017-05-25T13:46:24Z

commit b089c31c519c3906c14801b6ec483e18a5152a50 upstream. To cope with the variety in ARM architectures and configurations, the pagetable attributes for kernel memory are generated at runtime to match the system the kernel finds itself on. This calculated value is stored in pgprot_kernel. However, when early fixmap support was added for ARM (commit a5f4c561b3b1) the attributes used for mappings were hard coded because pgprot_kernel is not set up early enough. Unfortunately, when fixmap is used after early boot this means the memory being mapped can have different attributes to existing mappings, potentially leading to unpredictable behaviour. A specific problem also exists due to the hard coded values not include the 'shareable' attribute which means on systems where this matters (e.g. those with multiple CPU clusters) the cache contents for a memory location can become inconsistent between CPUs. To resolve these issues we change fixmap to use the same memory attributes (from pgprot_kernel) that the rest of the kernel uses. To enable this we need to refactor the initialisation code so build_mem_type_table() is called early enough. Note, that relies on early param parsing for memory type overrides passed via the kernel command line, so we need to make sure this call is still after parse_early_params(). [ardb: keep early_fixmap_init() before param parsing, for earlycon] Fixes: a5f4c561b3b1 ("ARM: 8415/1: early fixmap support for earlycon") Tested-by: afzal mohammed Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ARM: 8662/1: module: split core and init PLT sections

2017-05-25T13:46:24Z

commit b7ede5a1f5905ac394cc8e61712a13e3c5cb7b8f upstream. Since commit 35fa91eed817 ("ARM: kernel: merge core and init PLTs"), the ARM module PLT code allocates all PLT entries in a single core section, since the overhead of having a separate init PLT section is not justified by the small number of PLT entries usually required for init code. However, the core and init module regions are allocated independently, and there is a corner case where the core region may be allocated from the VMALLOC region if the dedicated module region is exhausted, but the init region, being much smaller, can still be allocated from the module region. This puts the PLT entries out of reach of the relocated branch instructions, defeating the whole purpose of PLTs. So split the core and init PLT regions, and name the latter ".init.plt" so it gets allocated along with (and sufficiently close to) the .init sections that it serves. Also, given that init PLT entries may need to be emitted for branches that target the core module, modify the logic that disregards defined symbols to only disregard symbols that are defined in the same section.
