The problem occurs [1] when a kernel-mode task returns from a system
call with a pending signal.
A real-life scenario is a child of 'khelper' returning from a failed
kernel_execve() in ____call_usermodehelper() [ kernel/kmod.c ].
kernel_execve() fails due to a pending SIGKILL, which is the result of
"kill -9 -1" (at least, busybox's init does it upon reboot).
The loop is as follows:
* syscall_exit_work:
- work_pending: // start_of_the_loop
- work_notifysig:
- do_notify_resume()
- do_signal()
- if (!user_mode(regs)) return;
- resume_userspace // TIF_SIGPENDING is still set
- work_pending // so we call work_pending => goto
// start_of_the_loop
More information can be found in another LKML thread:
http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,457826

following fix was accepted.

Problem:
1) Huge page mapping of anonymous memory is initially invalid. Will be
faulted in by copy-on-write mechanism.
2) Userspace attempts store at the end of the huge mapping.
3) TLB Refill exception handler fill TLB with a normal (4K sized)
invalid page at the end of the huge mapping virtual address range.
4) Userspace restarted, and re-attempts the store at the end of the
huge mapping.
5) Page from #3 is invalid, we get a fault and go to the hugepage
fault handler. This tries to map a huge page and calls
huge_ptep_set_access_flags() to install the mapping.
6) We just call the generic ptep_set_access_flags() to set up the page
tables, but the flush there assumes a normal (4K sized) page and
only tries to flush the first part of the huge page virtual address
out of the TLB, since the existing entry from step #3 doesn't
conflict, nothing is flushed.
7) We attempt to load the mapping into the TLB, but because it
conflicts with the entry from step #3, we get a Machine Check
exception.
The fix: Flush the entire rage covered by the huge page in
huge_ptep_set_access_flags(), and remove the optimization in
local_flush_tlb_range() so that the flush actually does the correct
thing.

All architectures that use cmd_dtc do so in almost the same way. Create
a central build rule to avoid duplication. The one difference is that
most current uses of dtc build $(obj)/%.dtb from $(src)/dts/%.dts rather
than building the .dtb in the same directory as the .dts file. This
difference will be eliminated arch-by-arch in future patches.
MIPS is the exception here; it already uses the exact same rule as the
new common rule, so the duplicate is removed in this patch to avoid any
conflict. arch/mips changes courtesy of Ralf Baechle.
Update Documentation/kbuild to remove the explicit call to cmd_dtc from
the example, now that the rule exists in a centralized location.

A recent patch changed some irq routines from inlines to functions.
These routines are called by the tracer code. Now that they're functions,
if they are compiled for function tracing they will call the tracer
and crash the system due to infinite recursion. The fix disables
tracing in these functions by using "notrace" in the function
definition.

The CBUS UART's interrupt number was wrong conflicting with the interrupt
being tied to the Intel PIIX4. Since the PIIX4's interrupt is registered
before the CBUS UART which is not being used on most systems this would
not be noticed.
Attempts to open the ttyS2 CBUS UART would result in:
genirq: Flags mismatch irq 18. 00000000 (serial) vs. 00010000 (XT-PIC cascade)
serial_link_irq_chain: request failed: -16 for irq: 18

For non MIPSr2 processors, such as the BMIPS 5000, calls to
arch_local_irq_disable() and others may be preempted, and in doing
so a stale value may be restored to c0_status. This fix disables
preemption for such processors prior to the call and enables it
after the call.
Those functions that needed this fix have been "outlined" to
mips-atomic.c, as they are no longer good candidates for inlining.
This bug was observed in a BMIPS 5000, occuring once every few hours
in a continuous reboot test. It was traced to the write_lock_irq()
function which was being invoked in release_task() in exit.c.
By placing a number of "nops" inbetween the mfc0/mtc0 pair in
arch_local_irq_disable(), which is called by write_lock_irq(), we
were able to greatly increase the occurance of this bug. Similarly,
the application of this commit silenced the bug.

So far is_compat_task() was testing for 32-bit registers if O32 support
was enabled and if O32 support was disabled but N32 enabled it was testing
for 32-bit address space. So if both O32 and N32 were enabled a N32
task was not considered a compat task, whops.
This still leaves potential cases where O32 and N32 need different treatment
unsolved. But that's another commit.

Possibly they should be just deleted, but it's possible that they'll acquire

moment.
Note that MIPS will compile happily if the file is deleted instead. I haven't

The microassembler used in tlbex.c does not notice if a label is redefined

At some recent point arch/mips/include/asm/delay.h has started being
included into csrc-octeon.c where the __?delay() functions are defined.
This causes a compile failure due to conflicting declarations and
definitions of the functions.
It turns out that the generic definitions in arch/mips/lib/delay.c also
conflict.
Proposed fix: Declare the functions to take unsigned long parameters
just like asm-generic (and x86) does. Update __delay to agree
(__ndelay and __udelay need no change).
Bonus: Get rid of 'inline' from __delay() definition, as it is globally
visible, and the compiler should be making this decision itself (it does
in fact inline the function without being told to).

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it
crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds
an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature
looks like this:
kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed
Call Trace:
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type
is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed
to happen.

The new SCCNXP driver supports the SC2681 chips used in RM400 machines.
We now use the new driver instead of the old SC26xx driver.

The PB1100/1500 are similar to their DB-cousins but with a few
more devices on the bus.
This patch adds PB1100/1500 support to the existing DB1100/1500
code.

The PB1550 is more or less a DB1550 without the PCI IDE controller,
a more complicated (read: configurable) Flash setup and some other
minor changes. Like the DB1550 it can be automatically detected by
reading the CPLD ID register bits.
This patch adds PB1550 detection and setup to the DB1550 code.

Combine support for the DB1200/PB1200, DB1300 and DB1550 boards into
a single kernel image.
defconfig-generated image verified on DB1200, DB1300 and DB1550.

We don't have to do a separate shift to eliminate the software bits,
just rotate them into the fill and they will be ignored.

Most supported systems currently hardwire cpu_has_dsp to 0, so we also
can disable support for cpu_has_dsp2 resulting in a slightly smaller
kernel.

[ralf@linux-mips.org: This patch really only detects the ASE and passes its
existence on to userland via /proc/cpuinfo. The DSP ASE Rev 2. adds new
resources but no resources that would need management by the kernel.]

On a dual issue processor GCC generates code that saves a couple of
clock cycles per loop if we rearrange things slightly. Checking for
p != end saves a SLTU per loop, moving the increment to the middle can
let it dual issue on multi-issue processors.

Add hardware performance counter support to kernel "perf" code for
BMIPS5000. The BMIPS5000 performance counters are similar to MIPS
MTI cores, so the changes were mostly made in perf_event_mipsxx.c
which is typically for MTI cores.

Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP into CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP
and CONFIG_MIPS_PERF_SHARED_TC_COUNTERS so some of the code used
for performance counters that are shared between threads can be used
for MIPS cores that are not MT_SMP.
