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:

[1] The problem was also reproduced on !CONFIG_VM86 x86, and the
following fix was accepted.

When returning coarse realtime values from clock_gettime, we must still
check the sequence counter to ensure that the kernel does not update
the vdso datapage whilst we are loading the coarse timespec as this
could potentially result in time appearing to go backwards.
This patch delays the coarse realtime check until after we have loaded
successfully from the vdso datapage. This does mean that we always load
the wtm timespec, but conditionalising the load and adding an extra
sequence test is unlikely to buy us anything other than messy code,
particularly as the sequence test implies a read barrier.

The generic timer clocksource has 56 bits of precision and as such must
be masked appropriately after we have read it. The current mask
generated by a movn instruction is off by 4 bits, so we accidentally
include the top 4 bits in the final value.
This patch fixes the broken mask.

The existing clk.c code for ColdFire CPUs has one set of functions to
support those CPU types that have selectable clocks (those with a PPMCR
register), and a duplicate simpler set for those with static clocks.
Modify the clk.c code so there is just one set of support functions. All
CPU types now define a list of clocks (in "struct clk"s), so we only need
a single set of clock functions.

The clock support code for ColdFire CPUs currently supports those that
have the clock control register PPMCR. Expose the struct clk for all CPU
types and add a definition for all other ColdFire CPU types.
With this we will be able to define simple clock trees for all ColdFire
CPU types, even though they will not be able to be enabled or disabled.
They will be able to report the clock rate.

When compiling for original 68000 or ColdFire targets you will get the

The page_to_virt() macro for m68knommu is currently effectively returning

This change will remove compiler warnings in common m68k code that use this
macro.

The ColdFire 5249 and 525x family of SoCs are very similar. Most of the
internals are the same, and are mapped the same. We can use a single set of
peripheral definitions for all of them.
So merge the current m5249sim.h and m525xsim.h definitions into a single
file. The 5249 is now obsolete, and the 525x parts are current, so I have
chosen to move everything into the existing m525xsim.h file.

As pointed out by Geert, MC68000 target needs to be disabled when
MMU support is enabled.
From Geert:
This needs a "depends on !MMU".
Else allmodconfig will select it, causing -m68000 to be passed to the assembler,
which may break the build depending on your version of binutils, a.o.

By using the native syscall entry point the kernel was also expecting

This is broken since ddd9e91b71072b8ebe89311c3a44b077defa1756 [preadv/
pwritev: MIPS: Add preadv(2) and pwritev(2) syscalls.] which originally
added these two syscalls. I walked through piles of code, including
libc and couldn't find anything that would have worked around the issue
so this change the API to what it should always have been.

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller:
"Two small fixes for Sparc, nobody uses sparc, so these are low risk :-)
1) Piggyback is too picky about the symbol types that _start and _end
have in the final kernel image, and it thus breaks with newer
binutils. Future proof by getting rid of the symbol type checks.
2) exit_group() should kill register windows on sparc64 the same way
we do for plain exit(). Thanks to Al Viro for spotting this."

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.

If the DIU framebuffer driver is not enabled, then there's no point in
compiling any platform DIU code, because it will never be used. Most of
the platform code was protected in the appropriate #ifdef, but not all.
This caused a break in some randconfig builds.
This is only a problem on the 512x platforms. The P1022DS and MPC8610HPCD
platforms are already correct.
This patch reverts commit 12e36309f8774f4ccc769d5e3ff11ef092e524bc ("powerpc:

Newer versions of binutils mark '_end' as 'B' instead of 'A' for
whatever reason.
To be honest, the piggyback code doesn't actually care what kind
of symbol _start and _end are, it just wants to find them and

So remove the type from the match strings.
