parisc: Fix syscall restarts

2016-01-29T21:12:56Z

commit 71a71fb5374a23be36a91981b5614590b9e722c3 upstream. On parisc syscalls which are interrupted by signals sometimes failed to restart and instead returned -ENOSYS which in the worst case lead to userspace crashes. A similiar problem existed on MIPS and was fixed by commit e967ef02 ("MIPS: Fix restart of indirect syscalls"). On parisc the current syscall restart code assumes that all syscall callers load the syscall number in the delay slot of the ble instruction. That's how it is e.g. done in the unistd.h header file: ble 0x100(%sr2, %r0) ldi #syscall_nr, %r20 Because of that assumption the current code never restored %r20 before returning to userspace. This assumption is at least not true for code which uses the glibc syscall() function, which instead uses this syntax: ble 0x100(%sr2, %r0) copy regX, %r20 where regX depend on how the compiler optimizes the code and register usage. This patch fixes this problem by adding code to analyze how the syscall number is loaded in the delay branch and - if needed - copy the syscall number to regX prior returning to userspace for the syscall restart.

PARISC: fix user-triggerable panic on parisc

2013-06-10T09:42:40Z

commit 441a179dafc0f99fc8b3a8268eef66958621082e upstream. int sys32_rt_sigprocmask(int how, compat_sigset_t __user *set, compat_sigset_t __user *oset, unsigned int sigsetsize) { sigset_t old_set, new_set; int ret; if (set && get_sigset32(set, &new_set, sigsetsize)) ... static int get_sigset32(compat_sigset_t __user *up, sigset_t *set, size_t sz) { compat_sigset_t s; int r; if (sz != sizeof *set) panic("put_sigset32()"); In other words, rt_sigprocmask(69, (void *)69, 69) done by 32bit process will promptly panic the box.

PARISC: Redefine ATOMIC_INIT and ATOMIC64_INIT to drop the casts

2012-10-07T21:40:58Z

commit bba3d8c3b3c0f2123be5bc687d1cddc13437c923 upstream. The following build error occured during a parisc build with swap-over-NFS patches applied. net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: (near initialization for 'memalloc_socks') net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant Dave Anglin says: > Here is the line in sock.i: > > struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled = > ((atomic_t) { (0) }) }); The above line contains two compound literals. It also uses a designated initializer to initialize the field enabled. A compound literal is not a constant expression. The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must consist of constant expressions.

set memory ranges in N_NORMAL_MEMORY when onlined

2011-05-09T22:54:52Z

commit d9b41e0b54fd7e164daf1e9c539c1070398aa02e upstream. When a DISCONTIGMEM memory range is brought online as a NUMA node, it also needs to have its bet set in N_NORMAL_MEMORY. This is necessary for generic kernel code that utilizes N_NORMAL_MEMORY as a subset of N_ONLINE for memory savings. These types of hacks can hopefully be removed once DISCONTIGMEM is either removed or abstracted away from CONFIG_NUMA. Fixes a panic in the slub code which only initializes structures for N_NORMAL_MEMORY to save memory: Backtrace: [<000000004021c938>] add_partial+0x28/0x98 [<000000004021faa0>] __slab_free+0x1d0/0x1d8 [<000000004021fd04>] kmem_cache_free+0xc4/0x128 [<000000004033bf9c>] ida_get_new_above+0x21c/0x2c0 [<00000000402a8980>] sysfs_new_dirent+0xd0/0x238 [<00000000402a974c>] create_dir+0x5c/0x168 [<00000000402a9ab0>] sysfs_create_dir+0x98/0x128 [<000000004033d6c4>] kobject_add_internal+0x114/0x258 [<000000004033d9ac>] kobject_add_varg+0x7c/0xa0 [<000000004033df20>] kobject_add+0x50/0x90 [<000000004033dfb4>] kobject_create_and_add+0x54/0xc8 [<00000000407862a0>] cgroup_init+0x138/0x1f0 [<000000004077ce50>] start_kernel+0x5a0/0x840 [<000000004011fa3c>] start_parisc+0xa4/0xb8 [<00000000404bb034>] packet_ioctl+0x16c/0x208 [<000000004049ac30>] ip_mroute_setsockopt+0x260/0xf20 Signed-off-by: David Rientjes Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

parisc : Remove broken line wrapping handling pdc_iodc_print()

2011-02-17T23:37:06Z

commit fbea668498e93bb38ac9226c7af9120a25957375 upstream. Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print(). It is broken in 3 ways : - It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the screen. - It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't increase the current position on the screen. - And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace is the first char in the provided buffer : Backtrace: [<0000000040128ec4>] pdc_console_write+0x44/0x78 [<0000000040128f18>] pdc_console_tty_write+0x20/0x38 [<000000004032f1ac>] n_tty_write+0x2a4/0x550 [<000000004032b158>] tty_write+0x1e0/0x2d8 [<00000000401bb420>] vfs_write+0xb8/0x188 [<00000000401bb630>] sys_write+0x68/0xb8 [<0000000040104eb8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14 Most terminals handle the line wrapping just fine.

compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()

2010-09-20T20:17:57Z

commit c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6 upstream. compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

parisc: pass through '\t' to early (iodc) console

2010-08-10T17:20:38Z

commit d9b68e5e88248bb24fd4e455588bea1d56108fd6 upstream. The firmware handles '\t' internally, so stop trying to emulate it (which, incidentally, had a bug in it.) Fixes a really weird hang at bootup in rcu_bootup_announce, which, as far as I can tell, is the first printk in the core kernel to use a tab as the first character.

This reverts the following patch, which shouldn't have been applied to the .32 stable tree as it causes problems. commit 5fd4514bb351b5ecb0da3692fff70741e5ed200c upstream. Set the PCI CLS early in the boot process to prevent device failures. In pcibios_set_master use the new pci_cache_line_size instead of a hard-coded value.
