* Remove a duplicate copy of linux_banner from the arm64 EFI stub which, apart from reducing code duplication also stops the arm64 stub being rebuilt every time make is invoked - Ard Biesheuvel * Fix the EFI fdt code to not report a boot error if UEFI is unavailable since booting without UEFI parameters is a valid use case for non-UEFI platforms - Catalin Marinas * Include a .bss section in the EFI boot stub PE/COFF headers to fix a memory corruption bug - Michael Brown Signed-off-by: H.

efi/arm64: efistub: remove local copy of linux_banner

2014-07-07T06:26:02Z

The shared efistub code for ARM and arm64 contains a local copy of linux_banner, allowing it to be referenced from separate executables such as the ARM decompressor. However, this introduces a dependency on generated header files, causing unnecessary rebuilds of the stub itself and, in case of arm64, vmlinux which contains it. On arm64, the copy is not actually needed since we can reference the original symbol directly, and as it turns out, there may be better ways to deal with this for ARM as well, so let's remove it from the shared code. If it still needs to be reintroduced for ARM later, it should live under arch/arm anyway and not in shared code. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Acked-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

arm64: fix el2_setup check of CurrentEL

2014-07-04T15:16:52Z

The CurrentEL system register reports the Current Exception Level of the CPU. It doesn't say anything about the stack handling, and yet we compare it to PSR_MODE_EL2t and PSR_MODE_EL2h. It works by chance because PSR_MODE_EL2t happens to match the right bits, but that's otherwise a very bad idea. Just check for the EL value instead.

arm64: ptrace: fix empty registers set in prstatus of aarch32 process core

2014-06-18T11:41:14Z

Currently core file of aarch32 process prstatus note has empty registers set. As result aarch32 core files create by V8 kernel are not very useful. It happens because compat_gpr_get and compat_gpr_set functions can copy registers values to/from either kbuf or ubuf. ELF core file collection function fill_thread_core_info calls compat_gpr_get with kbuf set and ubuf set to 0. But current compat_gpr_get and compat_gpr_set function handle copy to/from only ubuf case. Fix is to handle kbuf and ubuf as two separate cases in similar way as other functions like user_regset_copyout, user_regset_copyin do.

arm64: ptrace: change fs when passing kernel pointer to regset code

2014-06-18T11:40:57Z

Our compat PTRACE_POKEUSR implementation simply passes the user data to regset_copy_from_user after some simple range checking. Unfortunately, the data in question has already been copied to the kernel stack by this point, so the subsequent access_ok check fails and the ptrace request returns -EFAULT. This causes problems tracing fork() with older versions of strace. This patch briefly changes the fs to KERNEL_DS, so that the access_ok check passes even with a kernel address.

arm64: Bug fix in stack alignment exception

The value of ESR has been stored into x1, and should be directly pass to do_sp_pc_abort function, "MOV x1, x25" is an extra operation and do_sp_pc_abort will get the wrong value of ESR. Signed-off-by: ChiaHao Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas Cc:

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini: "At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this was a pretty active cycle for KVM. Changes include: - a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB support and more - ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin) - initial POWER8 and little-endian host support - support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets - pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware - for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17. Still, we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have always worked). And some optimizations too. The only missing architecture here is ia64. It's not a coincidence that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (203 commits) KVM: add missing cleanup_srcu_struct KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Rework SLB switching code KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Use SLB entry 0 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix machine check delivery to guest KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Work around POWER8 performance monitor bugs KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make sure we don't miss dirty pages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix dirty map for hugepages KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Put huge-page HPTEs in rmap chain for base address KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix check for running inside guest in global_invalidates() KVM: PPC: Book3S: Move KVM_REG_PPC_WORT to an unused register number KVM: PPC: Book3S: Add ONE_REG register names that were missed KVM: PPC: Add CAP to indicate hcall fixes KVM: PPC: MPIC: Reset IRQ source private members KVM: PPC: Graciously fail broken LE hypercalls PPC: ePAPR: Fix hypercall on LE guest KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Remove open coded make_dsisr in alignment handler KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: Always use the saved DAR value PPC: KVM: Make NX bit available with magic page KVM: PPC: Disable NX for old magic page using guests KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: HV: Add mixed page-size support for guest ...
