ec7ac6afd0 ARC: switch to generic ENTRY/END assembler annotations
With commit 9df62f0544 "arch: use ASM_NL instead of ';'" the generic
macros can handle the arch specific newline quirk. Hence we can get rid
of ARC asm macros and use the "C" style macros.

21a63b5604 ARC: Change calling convention of do_page_fault()
switch the args (address, pt_regs) to match with all the other "C"
exception handlers.

This removes the awkwardness in EV_ProtV for page fault vs. unaligned
access.

947bf103fc ARC: [ASID] Track ASID allocation cycles/generations
This helps remove asid-to-mm reverse map

While mm->context.id contains the ASID assigned to a process, our ASID
allocator also used asid_mm_map[] reverse map. In a new allocation
cycle (mm->ASID >= @asid_cache), the Round Robin ASID allocator used this
to check if new @asid_cache belonged to some mm2 (from prev cycle).
If so, it could locate that mm using the ASID reverse map, and mark that
mm as unallocated ASID, to force it to refresh at the time of switch_mm()

However, for SMP, the reverse map has to be maintained per CPU, so
becomes 2 dimensional, hence got rid of it.

With reverse map gone, it is NOT possible to reach out to current
assignee. So we track the ASID allocation generation/cycle and
on every switch_mm(), check if the current generation of CPU ASID is
same as mm's ASID; If not it is refreshed.

(Based loosely on arch/sh implementation)

d091fcb97f ARC: MMUv4 preps/2 - Reshuffle PTE bits
With previous commit freeing up PTE bits, reassign them so as to:

- Match the bit to H/w counterpart where possible
  (e.g. MMUv2 GLOBAL/PRESENT, this avoids a shift in create_tlb())
- Avoid holes in _PAGE_xxx definitions

64b703ef27 ARC: MMUv4 preps/1 - Fold PTE K/U access flags
The current ARC VM code has 13 flags in Page Table entry: some software
(accesed/dirty/non-linear-maps) and rest hardware specific. With 8k MMU
page, we need 19 bits for addressing page frame so remaining 13 bits is
just about enough to accomodate the current flags.

In MMUv4 there are 2 additional flags, SZ (normal or super page) and WT
(cache access mode write-thru) - and additionally PFN is 20 bits (vs. 19
before for 8k). Thus these can't be held in current PTE w/o making each
entry 64bit wide.

It seems there is some scope of compressing the current PTE flags (and
freeing up a few bits). Currently PTE contains fully orthogonal distinct
access permissions for kernel and user mode (Kr, Kw, Kx; Ur, Uw, Ux)
which can be folded into one set (R, W, X). The translation of 3 PTE
bits into 6 TLB bits (when programming the MMU) can be done based on
following pre-requites/assumptions:

1. For kernel-mode-only translations (vmalloc: 0x7000_0000 to
   0x7FFF_FFFF), PTE additionally has PAGE_GLOBAL flag set (and user
   space entries can never be global). Thus such a PTE can translate
   to Kr, Kw, Kx (as appropriate) and zero for User mode counterparts.

2. For non global entries, the PTE flags can be used to create mirrored
   K and U TLB bits. This is true after commit a950549c67
   "ARC: copy_(to|from)_user() to honor usermode-access permissions"
   which ensured that user-space translations _MUST_ have same access
   permissions for both U/K mode accesses so that  copy_{to,from}_user()
   play fair with fault based CoW break and such...

There is no such thing as free lunch - the cost is slightly infalted
TLB-Miss Handlers.

37f3ac498c ARC: Exception Handlers Code consolidation
After the recent cleanups, all the exception handlers now have same
boilerplate prologue code. Move that into common macro.

This reduces readability but helps greatly with sharing / duplicating
entry code with ARCv2 ISA where the handlers are pretty much the same,
just the entry prologue is different (due to hardware assist).

Also while at it, add the missing FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN calls in couple of
places to drop down to pure kernel mode (from exception mode) before
jumping off into "C" code.

dc81df2440 ARC: [tlb-miss] Fix bug with CONFIG_ARC_DBG_TLB_MISS_COUNT
LOAD_FAULT_PTE macro is expected to set r2 with faulting vaddr.
However in case of CONFIG_ARC_DBG_TLB_MISS_COUNT, it was getting
clobbered with statistics collection code.

Fix latter by using a different register.

Note that only I-TLB Miss handler was potentially affected.

3e1ae44188 ARC: [mm] Remove @write argument to do_page_fault()
This can be ascertained within do_page_fault() since it gets the full
ECR (Exception Cause Register).

Further, for both the callers of do_page_fault(): Prot-V / D-TLB-Miss,
the cause sub-fields in ECR are same for same type of access, making the
code much more simpler.

D-TLB-Miss [LD] 0x00_21_01_00
Prot-V     [LD] 0x00_23_01_00
                        ^^
D-TLB-Miss [ST] 0x00_21_02_00
Prot-V     [ST] 0x00_23_02_00
                        ^^
D-TLB-Miss [EX] 0x00_21_03_00
Prot-V     [EX] 0x00_23_03_00
                        ^^

This helps code consolidation, which is even better when moving code from
assembler to "C".

a950549c67 ARC: copy_(to|from)_user() to honor usermode-access permissions
This manifested as grep failing psuedo-randomly:

-------------->8---------------------
[ARCLinux]$ ip address show lo | grep inet
[ARCLinux]$ ip address show lo | grep inet
[ARCLinux]$ ip address show lo | grep inet
[ARCLinux]$
[ARCLinux]$ ip address show lo | grep inet
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
-------------->8---------------------

ARC700 MMU provides fully orthogonal permission bits per page:
Ur, Uw, Ux, Kr, Kw, Kx

The user mode page permission templates used to have all Kernel mode
access bits enabled.
This caused a tricky race condition observed with uClibc buffered file
read and UNIX pipes.

1. Read access to an anon mapped page in libc .bss: write-protected
   zero_page mapped: TLB Entry installed with Ur + K[rwx]

2. grep calls libc:getc() -> buffered read layer calls read(2) with the
   internal read buffer in same .bss page.
   The read() call is on STDIN which has been redirected to a pipe.
   read(2) => sys_read() => pipe_read() => copy_to_user()

3. Since page has Kernel-write permission (despite being user-mode
   write-protected), copy_to_user() suceeds w/o taking a MMU TLB-Miss
   Exception (page-fault for ARC). core-MM is unaware that kernel
   erroneously wrote to the reserved read-only zero-page (BUG #1)

4. Control returns to userspace which now does a write to same .bss page
   Since Linux MM is not aware that page has been modified by kernel, it
   simply reassigns a new writable zero-init page to mapping, loosing the
   prior write by kernel - effectively zero'ing out the libc read buffer
   under the hood - hence grep doesn't see right data (BUG #2)

The fix is to make all kernel-mode access permissions mirror the
user-mode ones. Note that the kernel still has full access to pages,
when accessed directly (w/o MMU) - this fix ensures that kernel-mode
access in copy_to_from() path uses the same faulting access model as for
pure user accesses to keep MM fully aware of page state.

The issue is peudo-random because it only shows up if the TLB entry
installed in #1 is present at the time of #3. If it is evicted out, due
to TLB pressure or some-such, then copy_to_user() does take a TLB Miss
Exception, with a routine write-to-anon COW processing installing a
fresh page for kernel writes and also usable as it is in userspace.

Further the issue was dormant for so long as it depends on where the
libc internal read buffer (in .bss) is mapped at runtime.
If it happens to reside in file-backed data mapping of libc (in the
page-aligned slack space trailing the file backed data), loader zero
padding the slack space, does the early cow page replacement, setting
things up at the very beginning itself.

With gcc 4.8 based builds, the libc buffer got pushed out to a real
anon mapping which triggers the issue.

41195d236e ARC: SMP support
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.

ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
includes:
-Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
-Cache coherency
-load-locked/store-conditional
...

The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
prologues to keep them re-entrant.

Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).

Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
addressed in subsequent patches within this series.
