Andrey Ryabinin cb9e3c292d mm: vmalloc: pass additional vm_flags to __vmalloc_node_range()
For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules.  So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().

__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area.  Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole.  So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().

Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range().  Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

Russell King 4ed89f2228 ARM: convert printk(KERN_* to pr_*
Convert many (but not all) printk(KERN_* to pr_* to simplify the code.
We take the opportunity to join some printk lines together so we don't
split the message across several lines, and we also add a few levels
to some messages which were previously missing them.

Andrey Ryabinin 55f0fb6adb ARM: 8127/1: module: add support for R_ARM_TARGET1 relocations
Kernel module build with GCOV profiling fails to load with the
following error:

 $ insmod test_module.ko
   test_module: unknown relocation: 38
   insmod: can't insert 'test_module.ko': invalid module format

This happens because constructor pointers in the .init_array section
have not supported R_ARM_TARGET1 relocation type.

Documentation (ELF for the ARM Architecture) says:
    "The relocation must be processed either in the same way as R_ARM_REL32 or
     as R_ARM_ABS32: a virtual platform must specify which method is used."

Since kernel expects to see absolute addresses in .init_array R_ARM_TARGET1
relocation type should be treated the same way as R_ARM_ABS32.

Linus Torvalds f47671e2d8 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "Included in this series are:

   1. BE8 (modern big endian) changes for ARM from Ben Dooks
   2. big.Little support from Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin
   3. support for LPAE systems with all system memory above 4GB
   4. Perf updates from Will Deacon
   5. Additional prefetching and other performance improvements from Will.
   6. Neon-optimised AES implementation fro Ard.
   7. A number of smaller fixes scattered around the place.

  There is a rather horrid merge conflict in tools/perf - I was never
  notified of the conflict because it originally occurred between Will's
  tree and other stuff.  Consequently I have a resolution which Will
  forwarded me, which I'll forward on immediately after sending this
  mail.

  The other notable thing is I'm expecting some build breakage in the
  crypto stuff on ARM only with Ard's AES patches.  These were merged
  into a stable git branch which others had already pulled, so there's
  little I can do about this.  The problem is caused because these
  patches have a dependency on some code in the crypto git tree - I
  tried requesting a branch I can pull to resolve these, and all I got
  each time from the crypto people was "we'll revert our patches then"
  which would only make things worse since I still don't have the
  dependent patches.  I've no idea what's going on there or how to
  resolve that, and since I can't split these patches from the rest of
  this pull request, I'm rather stuck with pushing this as-is or
  reverting Ard's patches.

  Since it should "come out in the wash" I've left them in - the only
  build problems they seem to cause at the moment are with randconfigs,
  and since it's a new feature anyway.  However, if by -rc1 the
  dependencies aren't in, I think it'd be best to revert Ard's patches"

I resolved the perf conflict roughly as per the patch sent by Russell,
but there may be some differences.  Any errors are likely mine.  Let's
see how the crypto issues work out..

Dave Martin 9a00318ead ARM: 6963/1: Thumb-2: Relax relocation requirements for non-function symbols
The "Thumb bit" of a symbol is only really meaningful for function
symbols (STT_FUNC).

However, sometimes a branch is relocated against a non-function
symbol; for example, PC-relative branches to anonymous assembler
local symbols are typically fixed up against the start-of-section
symbol, which is not a function symbol.  Some inline assembler
generates references of this type, such as fixup code generated by
macros in <asm/uaccess.h>.

The existing relocation code for R_ARM_THM_CALL/R_ARM_THM_JUMP24
interprets this case as an error, because the target symbol appears
to be an ARM symbol; but this is really not the case, since the
target symbol is just a base in these cases.  The addend defines
the precise offset to the target location, but since the addend is
encoded in a non-interworking Thumb branch instruction, there is no
explicit Thumb bit in the addend.  Because these instructions never
interwork, the implied Thumb bit in the addend is 1, and the
destination is Thumb by definition.

This patch removes the extraneous Thumb bit check for non-function
symbols, enabling modules containing the affected relocation types
to be loaded.  No modification to the actual relocation code is
required, since this code does not take bit[0] of the
location->destination offset into account in any case.

Function symbols are always checked for interworking conflicts, as
before.

Russell King dc21af99fa ARM: P2V: introduce phys_to_virt/virt_to_phys runtime patching
This idea came from Nicolas, Eric Miao produced an initial version,
which was then rewritten into this.

Patch the physical to virtual translations at runtime.  As we modify
the code, this makes it incompatible with XIP kernels, but allows us
to achieve this with minimal loss of performance.

As many translations are of the form:

	physical = virtual + (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET)
	virtual = physical - (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET)

we generate an 'add' instruction for __virt_to_phys(), and a 'sub'
instruction for __phys_to_virt().  We calculate at run time (PHYS_OFFSET
- PAGE_OFFSET) by comparing the address prior to MMU initialization with
where it should be once the MMU has been initialized, and place this
constant into the above add/sub instructions.

Once we have (PHYS_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET), we can calculate the real
PHYS_OFFSET as PAGE_OFFSET is a build-time constant, and save this for
the C-mode PHYS_OFFSET variable definition to use.

At present, we are unable to support Realview with Sparsemem enabled
as this uses a complex mapping function, and MSM as this requires a
constant which will not fit in our math instruction.

Add a module version magic string for this feature to prevent
incompatible modules being loaded.

David Rientjes d0a21265df mm: unify module_alloc code for vmalloc
Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for
module_init().  Much of the code is duplicated and can be generalized in a
globally accessible function, __vmalloc_node_range().

__vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of
[VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END) for functionally equivalent behavior.

Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove
the duplication of code.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Paul Gortmaker ae51e60984 [ARM] 5507/1: support R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and MOVT_ABS relocation types
From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>

To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support
for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is
required.

The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16
bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the
top half of a register.

The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit
value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the
instruction itself.  The immediate bits in the instruction are not
contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value),
so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value.
The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the
bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

Daniel Silverstone 4731f8b66d [ARM] 5428/1: Module relocation update for R_ARM_V4BX
It would seem when building kernel modules with modern binutils
(required by modern GCC) for ARM v4T targets (specifically observed
with the Samsung 24xx SoC which is an 920T) R_ARM_V4BX relocations
are emitted for function epilogues.

This manifests at module load time with an "unknown relocation: 40"
error message.

The following patch adds the R_ARM_V4BX relocation to the ARM kernel
module loader. The relocation operation is taken from that within the
binutils bfd library.

Russell King ab4f2ee130 [ARM] fix naming of MODULE_START / MODULE_END
As of 73bdf0a60e, the kernel needs
to know where modules are located in the virtual address space.
On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END.
Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END.
Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr()
can work properly.  Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to
reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the
vmalloc space.

Andrea Righi 27ac792ca0 PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architectures
On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:

	u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);

always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.

The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):

#define PAGE_SHIFT      12
#define PAGE_SIZE       (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK       (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr)       (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)

The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.

Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
