2222c313e9 sparc64: fix up bus_id changes in sparc core code
This converts all instances of bus_id in the sparc core kernel to use
either dev_set_name(), or dev_name() depending on the need.

This is done in anticipation of removing the bus_id field from struct
driver.

4a0b2b4dbe sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store function
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
passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.

I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.

I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Runtime tested: x86-32, x86-64
Compiled only: ia64, powerpc
Not compile tested/only grep converted: sh, arm, avr32

f7fe93344f sparc64: Remove 4MB and 512K base page size options.
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.

9ae95bce73 sparc: add -m64 when building vmlinux.lds
David Miller noticed that the build of vmlinux.lds
failed to use the -m64 specifier.
This caused the build to break with a bi-arch gcc with
unified headers.

Add the -m64 option to CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds so we
have the correct defines available when building
vmliux.lds.

3d44223327 Add generic helpers for arch IPI function calls
This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.

The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to

apparent that DYNAMIC_FTRACE is dependent on whether or not that

without having to also port the dynamic aspect as well.

93dae5b70e sparc64: Add global register dumping facility.
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 :)

a94a172d6c sparc64: Work around memory probing bug in openfirmware.
Read all of the OF memory and translation tables, then read
the physical available memory list twice.

When making these requests, OF can allocate more memory to
do it's job, which can remove pages from the available
memory list.

So fetch in all of the tables at once, and fetch the available
list last to make sure we read a stable value.

28e6103665 sparc: Fix debugger syscall restart interactions.
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.

986bef854f sparc: Fix ptrace() detach.
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
header file on sparc as PTRACE_DETACH and PT_DETACH.

So continue to recognize this old value.  Luckily, it doesn't conflict
with anything we actually care about.

dc5dc7e6d7 sparc: Fix SA_ONSTACK signal handling.
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.

This fixes glibc testcases nptl/tst-cancel20.c and
nptl/tst-cancelx20.c

1e38c126c9 sparc: Fix fork/clone/vfork system call restart.
We clobber %i1 as well as %i0 for these system calls,
because they give two return values.

Therefore, on error, we have to restore %i1 properly
or else the restart explodes since it uses the wrong
arguments.

This fixes glibc's nptl/tst-eintr1.c testcase.
