The problem was that this could lead to IPIs being disabled during
the softirq processing after a hypervisor downcall (e.g. for I/O),
since both IPI and device interrupts use the INCTRL_1 downcall mechanism.
When this happened at the wrong time, it could lead to deadlock.
Luckily, we were already maintaining the per-interrupt state we need,
and using it in the proper way in the hypervisor, so all we had to do
was to change Linux to stop blocking downcall interrupts for the entire
length of the downcall. (Now they're blocked while we're executing the
downcall routine itself, but not while we're executing any subsequent
softirq routines.) The hypervisor is doing a very small amount of
work it no longer needs to do (masking INTCTRL_1 on entry to the client
interrupt routine), but doing so means that older versions of Tile Linux
will continue to work with a current hypervisor, so that seems reasonable.

The current implementations of __ndelay and __udelay call a hypervisor
service to delay, but the hypervisor service isn't actually implemented
very well, and the consensus is that Linux should handle figuring this
out natively and not use a hypervisor service.
By converting nanoseconds to cycles, and then spinning until the
cycle counter reaches the desired cycle, we get several benefits:
first, we are sensitive to the actual clock speed; second, we use
less power by issuing a slow SPR read once every six cycles while
we delay; and third, we properly handle the case of an interrupt by
exiting at the target time rather than after some number of cycles.

To handle single-step, tile mmap's a page of memory in the process
space for each thread and uses it to construct a version of the
instruction that we want to single step. If the process exec's,
though, we lose that mapping, and the kernel needs to be aware that
it will need to recreate it if the exec'ed process than tries to
single-step as well.
Also correct some int32_t to s32 for better kernel style.

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.
This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc. However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle. But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)
This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix. It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

This change fixes a bug that memchr() will read the first word

was originally written with a test to avoid exactly this problem,
but to make the code conform to Linux coding standards with all
declarations preceding all statements, the first load from memory
was moved up above that test as the initial value for a variable.
The change just moves all the variable declarations to the top

This change enables PCI root complex support for TILEPro. Unlike
TILE-Gx, TILEPro has no support for memory-mapped I/O, so the PCI
support consists of hypervisor upcalls for PIO, DMA, etc. However,
the performance is fine for the devices we have tested with so far
(1Gb Ethernet, SATA, etc.).
The <asm/io.h> header was tweaked to be a little bit more aggressive
about disabling attempts to map/unmap IO port space. The hacky
<asm/pci-bridge.h> header was rolled into the <asm/pci.h> header
and the result was simplified. Both of the latter two headers were
preliminary versions not meant for release before now - oh well.
There is one quirk for our TILEmpower platform, which accidentally
negotiates up to 5GT and needs to be kicked down to 2.5GT.

The existing asm-generic/stat.h specifies st_mtime, etc., as a 32-value,
and works well for 32-bit architectures (currently microblaze, score,
and 32-bit tile). However, for 64-bit architectures it isn't sufficient
to return 32 bits of time_t; this isn't good insurance against the 2037
rollover. (It also makes glibc support less convenient, since we can't
use glibc's handy STAT_IS_KERNEL_STAT mode.)
This change extends the two "timespec" fields for each of the three atime,
mtime, and ctime fields from "int" to "long". As a result, on 32-bit
platforms nothing changes, and 64-bit platforms will now work as expected.
The only wrinkle is 32-bit userspace under 64-bit kernels taking advantage
of COMPAT mode. For these, we leave the "struct stat64" definitions with
the "int" versions of the time_t and nsec fields, so that architectures
can implement compat_sys_stat64() and friends with sys_stat64(), etc.,
and get the expected 32-bit structure layout. This requires a
field-by-field copy in the kernel, implemented by the code guarded
under __ARCH_WANT_STAT64.
This does mean that the shape of the "struct stat" and "struct stat64"
structures is different on a 64-bit kernel, but only one of the two
structures should ever be used by any given process: "struct stat"
is meant for 64-bit userspace only, and "struct stat64" for 32-bit
userspace only. (On a 32-bit kernel the two structures continue to have
the same shape, since "long" is 32 bits.)
The alternative is keeping the two structures the same shape on 64-bit
kernels, which means a 64-bit time_t in "struct stat64" for 32-bit
processes. This is a little unnatural since 32-bit userspace can't
do anything with 64 bits of time_t information, since time_t is just
"long", not "int64_t"; and in any case 32-bit userspace might expect
to be running under a 32-bit kernel, which can't provide the high 32
bits anyway. In the case of a 32-bit kernel we'd then be extending the
kernel's 32-bit time_t to 64 bits, then truncating it back to 32 bits
again in userspace, for no particular reason. And, as mentioned above,
if we have 64-bit time_t for 32-bit processes we can't easily use glibc's
STAT_IS_KERNEL_STAT, since glibc's stat structure requires an embedded
"struct timespec", which is a pair of "long" (32-bit) values in a 32-bit
userspace. "Inventive" solutions are possible, but are pretty hacky.

The kernel was allowing any component of the pt_regs to be updated either
by signal handlers writing to the stack, or by processes writing via
PTRACE_POKEUSR or PTRACE_SETREGS, which meant they could set their PL
up from 0 to 1 and get access to kernel code and data (or, in practice,
cause a kernel panic). We now always reset the ex1 field, allowing the
user to set their ICS bit only.

This change is modelled on similar fixes for other architectures.
The pt_regs "faultnum" member is set to the trap (fault) number that
caused us to enter the kernel, and is INT_SWINT_1 for the syscall software
interrupt. We already supported a pseudo value, INT_SWINT_1_SIGRETURN,
that we used for the rt_sigreturn syscall; it avoided the case where
one signal was handled, then we "tail-called" to another handler.
This change avoids the similar case where we start to call one handler,
then are preempted into another handler when we start trying to run
the first handler. We clear ->faultnum after calling handle_signal(),
and to be paranoid also in the case where there was no signal to deliver.

Christoph reported a nice splat which illustrated a race in the new stack
based kmap_atomic implementation.
The problem is that we pop our stack slot before we're completely done
resetting its state -- in particular clearing the PTE (sometimes that's
CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM). If an interrupt happens before we actually clear
the PTE used for the last slot, that interrupt can reuse the slot in a
dirty state, which triggers a BUG in kmap_atomic().
Fix this by introducing kmap_atomic_idx() which reports the current slot
index without actually releasing it and use that to find the PTE and delay
the _pop() until after we're completely done.

Keep the current interface but ignore the KM_type and use a stack based
approach.
The advantage is that we get rid of crappy code like:
#define __KM_PTE \
(in_nmi() ? KM_NMI_PTE : \
in_irq() ? KM_IRQ_PTE : \
KM_PTE0)
and in general can stop worrying about what context we're in and what kmap
slots might be appropriate for that.
The downside is that FRV kmap_atomic() gets more expensive.
For now we use a CPP trick suggested by Andrew:
#define kmap_atomic(page, args...) __kmap_atomic(page)
to avoid having to touch all kmap_atomic() users in a single patch.

Previously, we tried to pass 64-bit arguments through the
"COMPAT" mode 32-bit syscall API, which turned out not to work
well. Now we just use straight 32-bit arguments in COMPAT mode,
thus requiring individual registers to be read/written with
two syscalls. Of course this is uncommon, since usually all
the registers are read or written at once.
The restructuring applies to all the tile platforms, but is
plausibly better than the original code in any case.
