bd71ab88de sh: Fix IPR-IRQ's for IRQ-chip change breakage.
The conversion from IPR-IRQ to IRQ-chip resulted in the
ipr data being allocated in a local variable in
make_ipr_irq - breaking anything using IPR interrupts.

This changes all of the callers of make_ipr_irq to
allocate a static structure containing the IPR data which
is then passed to make_ipr_irq. This removes the need for
make_ipr_irq to allocate any additional space for the IPR
information.

Add a vmlinux.lds.h helper macro for defining the eight-level initcall table,
teach all the architectures to use it.

This is a prerequisite for a patch which performs initcall synchronisation for

66a740572d sh: Convert INTC2 to IRQ table registration.
Currently the INTC2 code contains a fixed IRQ table that it
iterates through to set the handler type, we move this in to
the CPU subtype setup code instead and allow for submitting
the table that way.

This drops the ST40 tables, as nothing has been happening
with those processors, while converting the only existing
users to use the new table directly (SH7760 and SH7780).

1f666587db sh: Fix exception_handling_table alignment.
With the recent change ripping out interrupt_table, explicit
padding of the table was missing, causing bad things to happen
when manually inserting handlers in to the table. This problem
particularly showed up in relation to do_fpu_state_restore()
which was inserted quite deeply in to the table and ended up
scribbling over a slab object.

This splits out some of the previous show_stack() implementation which
was mostly doing the show_trace() work without actually dumping any of
the stack contents. This now gets split in to two sections, where we
do the fetching of the stack pointer and subsequent stack dumping in
show_stack(), while moving the call trace in to show_trace().

baf4326e49 sh: interrupt exception handling rework
Kill off interrupt_table for all of the CPU subtypes, we now
default in to stepping in to do_IRQ() for _all_ IRQ exceptions
and counting the spurious ones, rather than simply flipping on
the ones we cared about. This and enabling the IRQ by default
automatically has already uncovered a couple of bugs and IRQs
that weren't being caught, as well as some that are being
generated far too often (SCI Tx Data Empty, for example).

The general rationale is to use a marker for interrupt exceptions,
test for it in the handle_exception() path, and skip out to
do_IRQ() if it's found. Everything else follows the same behaviour
of finding the cached EXPEVT value in r2/r2_bank, we just rip out
the INTEVT read from entry.S entirely (except for in the kGDB NMI
case, which is another matter).

Note that while this changes the do_IRQ() semantics regarding r4
handling, they were fundamentally broken anyways (relying entirely
on r2_bank for the cached code). With this, we do the INTEVT read
from do_IRQ() itself (in the CONFIG_CPU_HAS_INTEVT case), or fall
back on r4 for the muxed IRQ number, which should also be closer
to what SH-2 and SH-2A want anyways.

fe74290d51 [PATCH] provide kernel_execve on all architectures
This adds the new kernel_execve function on all architectures that were using
_syscall3() to implement execve.

The implementation uses code from the _syscall3 macros provided in the
unistd.h header file.  I don't have cross-compilers for any of these
architectures, so the patch is untested with the exception of i386.

Most architectures can probably implement this in a nicer way in assembly or
by combining it with the sys_execve implementation itself, but this should do
it for now.

8ef386092d [PATCH] kill wall_jiffies
With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies.
So we can kill wall_jiffies completely.

This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior
except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a
condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1".  This condition is never met so I
suppose it is just a bug.  I just remove that condition only instead of
kill the whole "if" block.

Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390

Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update.  Passing ticks
get rid of this redundant calculation.  Also there are another redundancy
pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.

This cleanup make a barrier added by

it.

As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies.  (This patch does not really
remove wall_jiffies.  It would be another cleanup patch)

f400e198b2 [PATCH] pidspace: is_init()
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

Make PROT_WRITE imply PROT_READ for a number of architectures which don't

Thus, this patch brings other architectures which do not support write only
mappings in-line and consistent with the rest.  I've verified the patch on
ia64, x86_64 and x86.

Additional discussion:

Several architectures, including x86, can not support write-only mappings.
The pte for x86 reserves a single bit for protection and its two states are
read only or read/write.  Thus, write only is not supported in h/w.

Currently, if i 'mmap' a page write-only, the first read attempt on that page
creates a page fault and will SEGV.  That check is enforced in
arch/blah/mm/fault.c.  However, if i first write that page it will fault in
and the pte will be set to read/write.  Thus, any subsequent reads to the page
will succeed.  It is this inconsistency in behavior that this patch is
attempting to address.  Furthermore, if the page is swapped out, and then
brought back the first read will also cause a SEGV.  Thus, any arbitrary read
on a page can potentially result in a SEGV.

According to the SuSv3 spec, "if the application requests only PROT_WRITE, the
implementation may also allow read access." Also as mentioned, some
archtectures, such as alpha, shown above already take the approach that i am
suggesting.

The counter-argument to this raised by Arjan, is that the kernel is enforcing
the write only mapping the best it can given the h/w limitations.  This is
true, however Alan Cox, and myself would argue that the inconsitency in
behavior, that is applications can sometimes work/sometimes fails is highly
undesireable.  If you read through the thread, i think people, came to an
agreement on the last patch i posted, as nobody has objected to it...

28ccf7f91b sh: Selective flush_cache_mm() flushing.
flush_cache_mm() wraps in to flush_cache_all(), which is rather
excessive given that the number of PTEs within the specified context
are generally quite low.  Optimize for walking the mm's VMA list and
selectively flushing the VMA ranges from the dcache. Invalidate the
icache only if a VMA sets VM_EXEC.
