When the function graph tracer is enabled, it replaces the return address
with a hook back to the tracer. This makes back traces see the hook instead
of the actual return address.
The current code also shows the real address by checking if the return
address jumps to the return_to_handler. If it is, is also prints out
the saved real return address.
On powerpc64, some modules may return to mod_return_to_handler, which
is not checked. This patch will also show the real address if a return
is to mod_return_to_handler as well.

If we are using 1TB segments and we are allowed to randomise the heap, we can
put it above 1TB so it is backed by a 1TB segment. Otherwise the heap will be
in the bottom 1TB which always uses 256MB segments and this may result in a
performance penalty.
This functionality is disabled when heap randomisation is turned off:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
which may be useful when trying to allocate the maximum amount of 16M or 16G
pages.
On a microbenchmark that repeatedly touches 32GB of memory with a stride of
256MB + 4kB (designed to stress 256MB segments while still mapping nicely into
the L1 cache), we see the improvement:
Force malloc to use heap all the time:
# export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=0 MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=-1
Disable heap randomization:
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
# time ./test
12.51s
Enable heap randomization:
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
# time ./test

The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is
currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures
that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the
time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first
is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time.
The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not
the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle
process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true
idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time
instead of just testing for the idle process.
To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture
primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context
points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu.
In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process.
This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should
be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as
every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle
time.
This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to
distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with
support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this.

The powerpc kernel stacks need to be naturally aligned, as they
contain the thread info at the bottom, which is obtained by
clearing the low bits of the stack pointer.
However, when using 64K pages, the stack is smaller than a page,
so we use kmalloc to allocate it, but that doesn't provide the
alignment guarantee we need.
It appeared to work so far... until one enables SLUB debugging
which then returns unaligned pointers. Ooops...
This fixes it by using a slab cache with enforced alignment. It
relies on my previous patch that adds a thread_info_cache_init()

There is a bug in the powerpc DABR (data access breakpoint) handling,
which can result in us missing breakpoints if several threads are trying
to break on the same address.
The circumstances are that do_page_fault() calls do_dabr(), this clears
the DABR (sets it to 0) and sets up the signal which will report to
userspace that the DABR was hit. The do_signal() code will restore the DABR
value on the way out to userspace.
If we reschedule before calling do_signal(), __switch_to() will check the
cached DABR value and compare it to the new thread's value, if they match
we don't set the DABR in hardware.
So if two threads have the same DABR value, and we schedule from one to
the other after taking the interrupt for the first thread hitting the DABR,
the second thread will run without the DABR set in hardware.
The cleanest fix is to move the cache update into set_dabr(), that way we
can't forget to do it.

Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().
This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
account_process_tick. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before. If
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
implement account_process_tick.
This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
suitable account_process_tick().
account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for

(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).
We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.
We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)

The current tlb flush code on powerpc 64 bits has a subtle race since we
lost the page table lock due to the possible faulting in of new PTEs
after a previous one has been removed but before the corresponding hash
entry has been evicted, which can leads to all sort of fatal problems.
This patch reworks the batch code completely. It doesn't use the mmu_gather
stuff anymore. Instead, we use the lazy mmu hooks that were added by the
paravirt code. They have the nice property that the enter/leave lazy mmu
mode pair is always fully contained by the PTE lock for a given range
of PTEs. Thus we can guarantee that all batches are flushed on a given
CPU before it drops that lock.
We also generalize batching for any PTE update that require a flush.
Batching is now enabled on a CPU by arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and
disabled by arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). The code epects that this is
always contained within a PTE lock section so no preemption can happen
and no PTE insertion in that range from another CPU. When batching
is enabled on a CPU, every PTE updates that need a hash flush will
use the batch for that flush.

PR_SET_UNALIGN and PR_GET_UNALIGN prctls. We do not implement the
option of logging a message on alignment exceptions.

This adds the PowerPC part of the code to allow processes to change
their endian mode via prctl.
This also extends the alignment exception handler to be able to fix up
alignment exceptions that occur in little-endian mode, both for
"PowerPC" little-endian and true little-endian.
We always enter signal handlers in big-endian mode -- the support for
little-endian mode does not amount to the creation of a little-endian
user/kernel ABI. If the signal handler returns, the endian mode is
restored to what it was when the signal was delivered.
We have two new kernel CPU feature bits, one for PPC little-endian and
one for true little-endian. Most of the classic 32-bit processors
support PPC little-endian, and this is reflected in the CPU feature
table. There are two corresponding feature bits reported to userland
in the AT_HWCAP aux vector entry.
This is based on an earlier patch by Anton Blanchard.

- Include that file from every source that implements one
of these
- Get rid of old declarations in <asm/unistd.h>

When kretprobe probes the schedule() function, if the probed process exits
then schedule() will never return, so some kretprobe instances will never
be recycled.
In this patch the parent process will recycle retprobe instances of the
probed function and there will be no memory leak of kretprobe instances.

This implements accurate task and cpu time accounting for 64-bit
powerpc kernels. Instead of accounting a whole jiffy of time to a
task on a timer interrupt because that task happened to be running at
the time, we now account time in units of timebase ticks according to
the actual time spent by the task in user mode and kernel mode. We
also count the time spent processing hardware and software interrupts
accurately. This is conditional on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. If
that is not set, we do tick-based approximate accounting as before.
To get this accurate information, we read either the PURR (processor
utilization of resources register) on POWER5 machines, or the timebase
on other machines on
* each entry to the kernel from usermode
* each exit to usermode
* transitions between process context, hard irq context and soft irq
context in kernel mode
* context switches.
On POWER5 systems with shared-processor logical partitioning we also
read both the PURR and the timebase at each timer interrupt and
context switch in order to determine how much time has been taken by
the hypervisor to run other partitions ("steal" time). Unfortunately,
since we need values of the PURR on both threads at the same time to
accurately calculate the steal time, and since we can only calculate
steal time on a per-core basis, the apportioning of the steal time
between idle time (time which we ceded to the hypervisor in the idle
loop) and actual stolen time is somewhat approximate at the moment.
This is all based quite heavily on what s390 does, and it uses the
generic interfaces that were added by the s390 developers,
i.e. account_system_time(), account_user_time(), etc.
This patch doesn't add any new interfaces between the kernel and
userspace, and doesn't change the units in which time is reported to
userspace by things such as /proc/stat, /proc/<pid>/stat, getrusage(),
times(), etc. Internally the various task and cpu times are stored in
timebase units, but they are converted to USER_HZ units (1/100th of a
second) when reported to userspace. Some precision is therefore lost
but there should not be any accumulating error, since the internal
accumulation is at full precision.

The runlatch SPR can take a lot of time to write. My original runlatch
code would set it on every exception entry even though most of the time
this was not required. It would also continually set it in the idle
loop, which is an issue on an SMT capable processor.
Now we cache the runlatch value in a threadinfo bit, and only check for
it in decrementer and hardware interrupt exceptions as well as the idle
loop. Boot on POWER3, POWER5 and iseries, and compile tested on pmac32.

Heikki Lindholm pointed out that there was a potential race with the
lazy CPU state (FP, VR, EVR) stuff if preempt is enabled. The race
is that in the process of restoring FP state on sigreturn, the task
gets preempted by a user task that wants to use the FPU. It will take
an FP unavailable exception, which will write the current FPU state
to the thread_struct, overwriting the values which sigreturn has
stored. Note that this can only happen on UP since we don't implement
lazy CPU state on SMP.
The fix is to flush the lazy CPU state before updating the
thread_struct. To do this we re-use the flush_lazy_cpu_state()
function from process.c.

This fixes a bug noticed by Paolo Galtieri and fixed for ARCH=ppc in
the previous commit (ppc: fix floating point register corruption).
This fixes the arch/powerpc code by adding preempt_disable/enable,
and also cleans it up a bit by pulling out the code that discards
any lazily-switched CPU register state into a new function, rather
than having that code repeated in three places.

Fix a bug in kprobes that can cause an Oops or even a crash when a return
probe is installed on one of the following functions: sys_execve,
do_execve, load_*_binary, flush_old_exec, or flush_thread. The fix is to
remove the call to kprobe_flush_task() in flush_thread(). This fix has
been tested on all architectures for which the return-probes feature has
been implemented (i386, x86_64, ppc64, ia64). Please apply.
BACKGROUND
Up to now, we have called kprobe_flush_task() under two situations: when a
task exits, and when it execs. Flushing kretprobe_instances on exit is
correct because (a) do_exit() doesn't return, and (b) one or more
return-probed functions may be active when a task calls do_exit(). Neither
is the case for sys_execve() and its callees.
Initially, the mistaken call to kprobe_flush_task() on exec was harmless
because we put the "real" return address of each active probed function
back in the stack, just to be safe, when we recycled its
kretprobe_instance. When support for ppc64 and ia64 was added, this safety
measure couldn't be employed, and was eventually dropped even for i386 and
x86_64. sys_execve() and its callees were informally blacklisted for
return probes until this fix was developed.

Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any
hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.
Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
information from the newer hypervisors.

The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y. FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.
The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU. However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit. This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.
While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S. The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.
Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.
Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no

This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,

to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes
to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting.
