mn10300/CPU hotplug: Add missing call to notify_cpu_starting()

2012-05-16T01:16:57+00:00

The scheduler depends on receiving the CPU_STARTING notification, without which we end up into a lot of trouble. So add the missing call to notify_cpu_starting() in the bringup code. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

doc: fix broken references

2011-09-27T16:08:04+00:00

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd. Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text they were part of. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

modules: make arch's use default loader hooks

MN10300: die_if_no_fixup() shouldn't use get_user() as it doesn't call set_fs()

2011-06-08T02:03:52+00:00

die_if_no_fixup() shouldn't use get_user() as it doesn't call set_fs() to indicate that it wants to probe a kernel address. Instead it should use probe_kernel_read(). This fixes the problem of gdb seeing SIGILL rather than SIGTRAP when hitting the KGDB special breakpoint upon SysRq+g being seen. The problem was that die_if_no_fixup() was failing to read the opcode of the instruction that caused the exception, and thus not fixing up the exception. This caused gdb to get a S04 response to the $? request in its remote protocol rather than S05 - which would then cause it to continue with $C04 rather than $c in an attempt to pass the signal onto the inferior process. The kernel, however, does not support $Cnn, and so objects by returning an E22 response, indicating an error. gdb does not expect this and prints: warning: Remote failure reply: E22 and then returns to the gdb command prompt unable to continue.
