The story is that what we used to do when we actually used
smp_report_regs() is that if you specifically only wanted to have the
current cpu's registers dumped you would call "__show_regs()"
otherwise you would call show_regs() which also invoked
smp_report_regs().
Now that we killed off smp_report_regs() there is no longer any
reason to have these two routines, just show_regs() is sufficient.
Also kill off a stray declaration of show_regs() in sparc64_ksym.c

Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).
Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.
Solution:
1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have
two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
lock for kretporbe object.
2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list. To prevent
deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
lock.
3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
table.

nohz: adjust tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() call of s390 as well
nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.
The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

The goal of this patchset is to support multiple hugetlb page sizes. This
is achieved by introducing a new struct hstate structure, which
encapsulates the important hugetlb state and constants (eg. huge page
size, number of huge pages currently allocated, etc).
The hstate structure is then passed around the code which requires these
fields, they will do the right thing regardless of the exact hstate they
are operating on.
This patch adds the hstate structure, with a single global instance of it
(default_hstate), and does the basic work of converting hugetlb to use the
hstate.
Future patches will add more hstate structures to allow for different
hugetlbfs mounts to have different page sizes.

We're calling request_irq() with a IRQs disabled.
No straightforward fix exists because we want to
enable these IRQs and setup state atomically before
getting into the IRQ handler the first time.
What happens now is that we mark the VIRQ to not be
automatically enabled by request_irq(). Then we
make explicit enable_irq() calls when we grab the
LDC channel.
This way we don't need to call request_irq() illegally
under the LDC channel lock any more.

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute

I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86

Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:
scheduler switch to idle task
enable interrupts
Window starts here
----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
irq_exit() stops the tick
----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)
return from schedule()
cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();
Window ends here
The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.
The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.
Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.
cpu_idle()
{
preempt_disable();
while(1) {
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
are in the idle loop
while (!need_resched())
halt();
tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
preempt_enable_no_resched();
schedule();
preempt_disable();
}
}
In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ...

Adrian Bunk reported that enabling 4MB page size breaks the build.
The problem is that MAX_ORDER combined with the page shift exceeds the
SECTION_SIZE_BITS we use in asm-sparc64/sparsemem.h
There are several ways I suppose we could work around this. For one
we could define a CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER to decrease MAX_ORDER in
these higher page size cases.
But I also know that these page size cases are broken wrt. TLB miss
handling especially on pre-hypervisor systems, and there isn't an easy
way to fix that.
These options were meant to be fun experimental hacks anyways, and
only 8K and 64K make any sense to support.
So remove 512K and 4M base page size support. Of course, we still
support these page sizes for huge pages.

The offset to the pt_regs area was wrong, so we weren't
looking at the right location for the magic cookie.
A trap frame is composed of a "struct sparc_stackf" then
a "struct pt_regs", the code was using "struct reg_window"
instead of "struct sparc_stackf".

Because of the silly way I set up the initial stack for

To fix this, properly add another stack frame that is copied
from the parent and terminate it in the child by setting
the frame pointer in that frame to zero.

When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where. The
worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.
Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.
As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
get a dump. Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger
The output is made compact so that this facility is more
useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
facility will likely find itself the most useful :)

So, forever, we've had this ptrace_signal_deliver implementation
which tries to handle all of the nasties that can occur when the
debugger looks at a process about to take a signal. It's meant
to address all of these issues inside of the kernel so that the
debugger need not be mindful of such things.
Problem is, this doesn't work.
The idea was that we should do the syscall restart business first, so
that the debugger captures that state. Otherwise, if the debugger for
example saves the child's state, makes the child execute something
else, then restores the saved state, we won't handle the syscall
restart properly because we lose the "we're in a syscall" state.
The code here worked for most cases, but if the debugger actually
passes the signal through to the child unaltered, it's possible that
we would do a syscall restart when we shouldn't have.
In particular this breaks the case of debugging a process under a gdb
which is being debugged by yet another gdb. gdb uses sigsuspend
to wait for SIGCHLD of the inferior, but if gdb itself is being
debugged by a top-level gdb we get a ptrace_stop(). The top-level gdb
does a PTRACE_CONT with SIGCHLD to let the inferior gdb see the
signal. But ptrace_signal_deliver() assumed the debugger would cancel
out the signal and therefore did a syscall restart, because the return
error was ERESTARTNOHAND.
Fix this by simply making ptrace_signal_deliver() a nop, and providing
a way for the debugger to control system call restarting properly:
1) Report a "in syscall" software bit in regs->{tstate,psr}.
It is set early on in trap entry to a system call and is fully
visible to the debugger via ptrace() and regsets.
2) Test this bit right before doing a syscall restart. We have
to do a final recheck right after get_signal_to_deliver() in
case the debugger cleared the bit during ptrace_stop().
3) Clear the bit in trap return so we don't accidently try to set
that bit in the real register.
As a result we also get a ptrace_{is,clear}_syscall() for sparc32 just
like sparc64 has.
M68K has this same exact bug, and is now the only other user of the
ptrace_signal_deliver hook. It needs to be fixed in the same exact
way as sparc.

Forever we had a PTRACE_SUNOS_DETACH which was unconditionally
recognized, regardless of the personality of the process.
Unfortunately, this value is what ended up in the GLIBC sys/ptrace.h

So continue to recognize this old value. Luckily, it doesn't conflict

We need to be more liberal about the alignment of the buffer given to
us by sigaltstack(). The user should not need to be mindful of all of
the alignment constraints we have for the stack frame.
This mirrors how we handle this situation in clone() as well.
Also, we align the stack even in non-SA_ONSTACK cases so that signals
due to bad stack alignment can be delivered properly. This makes such
errors easier to debug and recover from.
Finally, add the sanity check x86 has to make sure we won't overflow
the signal stack.

The change I put into copy_thread() just papered over the real
problem.
When we are looking to see if we should do a syscall restart, when
deliverying a signal, we should only interpret the syscall return
value as an error if the carry condition code(s) are set.
Otherwise it's a success return.
Also, sigreturn paths should do a pt_regs_clear_trap_type().
It turns out that doing a syscall restart when returning from a fork()
does and should happen, from time to time. Even if copy_thread()
returns success, copy_process() can still unwind and signal
-ERESTARTNOINTR in the parent.

Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc
Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match
that of SunOS.
By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland
for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's
needs.
Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style
signal frame layout in there. The detection mechanism is that we had
sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate
"new style signal frames please".
Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff. In
fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever
had such binaries to be honest.
So let's get rid of this stuff.
I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit
applications are passing in that negative signal number still.

Kernel bugzilla 10273
As reported by Jos van der Ende, ever since commit
5a606b72a4 ("[SPARC64]: Do not ACK an
INO if it is disabled or inprogress.") sun4u interrupts
can get stuck.
What this changset did was add the following conditional to
the various IRQ chip ->enable() handlers on sparc64:
if (unlikely(desc->status & (IRQ_DISABLED|IRQ_INPROGRESS)))
return;
which is correct, however it means that special care is needed
in the ->enable() method.
Specifically we must put the interrupt into IDLE state during
an enable, or else it might never be sent out again.
Setting the INO interrupt state to IDLE resets the state machine,
the interrupt input to the INO is retested by the hardware, and
if an interrupt is being signalled by the device, the INO
moves back into TRANSMIT state, and an interrupt vector is sent
to the cpu.
The two sun4v IRQ chip handlers were already doing this properly,
only sun4u got it wrong.

Doing a 'flushw' every stack trace capture creates so much overhead
that it makes lockdep next to unusable.
We only care about the frame pointer chain and the function caller
program counters, so flush those by hand to the stack frame.
This is significantly more efficient than a 'flushw' because:
1) We only save 16 bytes per active register window to the stack.
2) This doesn't push the entire register window context of the current
call chain out of the cpu, forcing register window fill traps as we
return back down.
Note that we can't use 'restore' and 'save' instructions to move
around the register windows because that wouldn't work on Niagara
processors. They optimize 'save' into a new register window by
simply clearing out the registers instead of pulling them in from
the on-chip register window backing store.

Currently kernel images are limited to 8MB in size, and this causes
problems especially when enabling features that take up a lot of
kernel image space such as lockdep.
The code now will align the kernel image size up to 4MB and map that
many locked TLB entries. So, the only practical limitation is the
number of available locked TLB entries which is 16 on Cheetah and 64
on pre-Cheetah sparc64 cpus. Niagara cpus don't actually have hw
locked TLB entry support. Rather, the hypervisor transparently
provides support for "locked" TLB entries since it runs with physical
addressing and does the initial TLB miss processing.
Fully utilizing this change requires some help from SILO, a patch for
which will be submitted to the maintainer. Essentially, SILO will
only currently map up to 8MB for the kernel image and that needs to be
increased.
Note that neither this patch nor the SILO bits will help with network
booting. The openfirmware code will only map up to a certain amount
of kernel image during a network boot and there isn't much we can to
about that other than to implemented a layered network booting
facility. Solaris has this, and calls it "wanboot" and we may
implement something similar at some point.

Fix following warnings:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4b258): Section mismatch in reference from the function dr_cpu_data() to the function .devinit.text:mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4b290): Section mismatch in reference from the function dr_cpu_data() to the function .cpuinit.text:cpu_up()
mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data() is only used during early init and for
cpu hotplug so the __cpuinit annotation is the correct choice.
We have the call chain:
dr_cpu_data() => dr_cpu_configure() => mdesc_fill_in_cpu_data()
dr_cpu_data() is used only during early init and for cpu
hotplug. So annotating them all __cpuinit solves the
section mismatch and should be correct.

I can't remove the equivalent from sparc32 yet as some
ancient bus probing code still uses that platform's version.

The idea of this thing is we could save/restore the firmware's
palette when breaking in and out of the firmware prompt.
Only one driver implemented this (atyfb) and it's value is
questionable. If you're just debugging you don't really
care that the characters end up being purple or whatever.
And we can provide better debugging and firmware command
facilities with minimal in-kernel console I/O drivers.

The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and
time_after_eq are more robust for comparing jiffies against other
values.
So following patch implements usage of the time_after() macro, defined
at linux/jiffies.h, which deals with wrapping correctly

This gives better heuristics for the cost of a multiply (fixed
5 cycles), rather than the 'ultrasparc' setting (variable, and
unpredictable if the second argument is non-constant).

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:
without patch series:
text data bss dec hex filename
5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux
with patch series:
text data bss dec hex filename
5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux
This patch:
Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

Mimicks almost perfectly the powerpc IOMMU code, except that it
doesn't have the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE handling, and it also
lacks the device dma mask support bits.
I'll add that later as time permits, but this gets us at least back to
where we were beforehand.

To allow flexible configuration of IDE introduce HAVE_IDE.
All archs except arm, um and s390 unconditionally select it.
For arm the actual configuration determine if IDE is supported.
This is a step towards introducing drivers/Kconfig for arm.
