The Parallella board comes with a U-Boot bootloader that loads one of

AXI interface to the on-board Epiphany processor.
Enable clocks FCLK0..FCLK3 for the Programmable Logic by default.
Otherwise accessing, e.g., the ESYSRESET register freezes the board,
as seen with the Epiphany SDK tools e-reset and e-hw-rev, using /dev/mem.

Starting with version 2.24.51.20140728 MIPS binutils complain loudly
about mixing soft-float and hard-float object files, leading to this

To fix this, we detect if GAS is new enough to support "-msoft-float" command
option, and if it does, we can let GCC pass it to GAS; but then we also need
to sprinkle the files which make use of floating point registers with the
necessary ".set hardfloat" directives.

The emulator could reuse an op->type from a previous instruction for some
immediate values. If it mistakenly considers the operands as memory
operands, it will performs a memory read and overwrite op->val.
Consider for instance the ROR instruction - src2 (the number of times)
would be read from memory instead of being used as immediate.
Mark every immediate operand as such to avoid this problem.

So far, the required PLL's (PLL1/PLL2/PLL5) have been initialized
by boot loader and the kernel code defined fixed rates according
to those default configurations. Beginning with the USB PLL7 the
code started to initialize the PLL's itself (using imx_clk_pllv3).
However, since commit dc4805c2e7
(ARM: imx: remove ENABLE and BYPASS bits from clk-pllv3 driver)
imx_clk_pllv3 no longer takes care of the ENABLE and BYPASS bits,
hence the USB PLL were not configured correctly anymore.
This patch not only fixes those USB PLL's, but also makes use of
the imx_clk_pllv3 for all PLL's and alignes the code with the PLL
support of the i.MX6 series.

socfpga that refreshes with some churn, but also turns on a few options
that makes the newly-added board in my bootfarm usable for testing.
OMAP3 will also now warn when booted with legacy (non-DT) boot protocols,
hopefully encouraging those who still care about some of those platforms
to submit DT support and report bugs where needed. Nothing stops working
though, this is just to warn for future deprecation.
Beyond this, very few actual bugfixes. A PXA fix for DEBUG_LL boot hangs,
a missing terminting entry in a dt_match array on RealView a MTD fix on

We now have things working with device tree, and only omap3 is
still booting in legacy mode. So hopefully this warning will
help move the remaining legacy mode users to boot with device
tree.
As the total reduction of code and static data is somewhere
around 20000 lines of code once we remove omap3 legacy mode
booting, we really do want to make omap3 to boot also in

Merge tag 'fixes-against-v3.18-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap into fixes
Merge "omap fixes against v3.18-rc2" from Tony Lindgren:
Few fixes for omaps to enable NAND BCH so devices won't
produce errors when booted with omap2plus_defconfig, and
reduce bloat by making IPV6 a loadable module.
Also let's add a warning about legacy boot being deprecated
for omap3.
We now have things working with device tree, and only omap3 is
still booting in legacy mode. So hopefully this warning will
help move the remaining legacy mode users to boot with device
tree.
As the total reduction of code and static data is somewhere
around 20000 lines of code once we remove omap3 legacy mode
booting, we really do want to make omap3 to boot also in
device tree mode only over the next few merge cycles.

"A small set of x86 fixes. The most serious is an SRCU lockdep fix.
A bit late - needed some time to test the SRCU fix, which only came in
on Friday"
* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm:
KVM: vmx: defer load of APIC access page address during reset
KVM: nVMX: Disable preemption while reading from shadow VMCS
KVM: x86: Fix far-jump to non-canonical check
KVM: emulator: fix execution close to the segment limit
KVM: emulator: fix error code for __linearize
In order to access the shadow VMCS, we need to load it. At this point,
vmx->loaded_vmcs->vmcs and the actually loaded one start to differ. If
we now get preempted by Linux, vmx_vcpu_put and, on return, the
vmx_vcpu_load will work against the wrong vmcs. That can cause
copy_shadow_to_vmcs12 to corrupt the vmcs12 state.
Fix the issue by disabling preemption during the copy operation.
copy_vmcs12_to_shadow is safe from this issue as it is executed by
vmx_vcpu_run when preemption is already disabled before vmentry.
This bug is exposed by running Jailhouse within KVM on CPUs with
shadow VMCS support. Jailhouse never expects an interrupt pending
vmexit, but the bug can cause it if, after copy_shadow_to_vmcs12
is preempted, the active VMCS happens to have the virtual interrupt
pending flag set in the CPU-based execution controls.

Commit d1442d85cc ("KVM: x86: Handle errors when RIP is set during far
jumps") introduced a bug that caused the fix to be incomplete. Due to
incorrect evaluation, far jump to segment with L bit cleared (i.e., 32-bit
segment) and RIP with any of the high bits set (i.e, RIP[63:32] != 0) set may
not trigger #GP. As we know, this imposes a security problem.
In addition, the condition for two warnings was incorrect.

In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, use device_online() and
device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down().
Calling cpu_up/down() directly does not update the cpu device offline
field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling
device_online/offline() instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value
correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling
device_online/offline(), is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu()
are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store().
This patch fixes errors on phyp (PowerVM) systems that have cpu(s)
added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the
online state of added/removed cpus.

Rusty noticed a Really Bad Bug (tm) in my NT fix. The entry code
reads out of bounds, causing the NT fix to be unreliable. But, and
this is much, much worse, if your stack is somehow just below the
top of the direct map (or a hole), you read out of bounds and crash.
Excerpt from the crash:
[ 1.129513] RSP: 0018:ffff88001da4bf88 EFLAGS: 00010296
2b:* f7 84 24 90 00 00 00 testl $0x4000,0x90(%rsp)
That read is deterministically above the top of the stack. I
thought I even single-stepped through this code when I wrote it to
check the offset, but I clearly screwed it up.

With legacy booting, the platform init code was taking care of
the configuring of GPIOs. With device tree based booting, things
may or may not work depending what bootloader has configured or
if the legacy platform code gets called.
Let's add support for the pwrdn and reset GPIOs to the smc91x
driver to fix the issues of smc91x not working properly when
booted in device tree mode.
And let's change n900 to use these settings as some versions
of the bootloader do not configure things properly causing
errors.

Back in 7230c56441 ("powerpc: Rework lazy-interrupt handling") we
added a call out to restore_interrupts() (written in c) before calling
do_notify_resume:
bl restore_interrupts
addi r3,r1,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD
bl do_notify_resume
Unfortunately do_notify_resume takes two arguments, the second one
being the thread_info flags:
void do_notify_resume(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long thread_info_flags)
We do populate r4 (the second argument) earlier, but
restore_interrupts() is free to muck it up all it wants. My guess is
the gcc compiler gods shone down on us and its register allocator
never used r4. Sometimes, rarely, luck is on our side.
LLVM on the other hand did trample r4.

We're moving omaps to use device tree based booting and already have
omap2, omap4, omap5, am335x and am437x booting in device tree only

Only omap3 still has legacy booting still around and we really want
to make that device tree only. So let's add a warning about deprecated
legacy booting so we get people to upgrade their boards to use device
tree based booting and find out about any remaining issues.
Note that for most boards we already have the .dts file and those can
be booted with without changing the bootloader using the appended

Since CONFIG_HIGHMEM got enabled on ARMv5 Kirkwood, we have noticed a
very significant drop in networking performance. The test were
conducted on an OpenBlocks A7 board. Without this patch, the outgoing
performance measured with iperf are:
- highmem OFF, TSO OFF 544 Mbit/s
- highmem OFF, TSO ON 942 Mbit/s
- highmem ON, TSO OFF 306 Mbit/s
- highmem ON, TSO ON 246 Mbit/s
On this Kirkwood platform, the L2 cache is a Feroceon cache, and with
this cache, all the range operations have to be done on virtual
addresses and not physical addresses. Therefore, whenever
CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled, the cache maintenance operations call
kmap_atomic_pfn() and kunmap_atomic().
However, kmap_atomic_pfn() does not implement the same fast path for
non-highmem pages as the one implemented in kmap_atomic(), and this is
one of the reason for the performance drop. While this patch does not
fully restore the performances, it clearly improves them a lot:
without patch with patch
- highmem ON, TSO OFF 306 Mbit/s 387 Mbit/s
- highmem ON, TSO ON 246 Mbit/s 434 Mbit/s
We're still far from the !CONFIG_HIGHMEM performances, but it does
improve a bit the situation.
Thanks a lot to Ezequiel Garcia and Gregory Clement for all the
testing work around this topic.
