e193ba290f ARM: dma: add /proc/dma support to arch/arm/kernel/dma.c
We have our own private implementation for ISA-like DMA which has been
missing exposure via the /proc/dma interface.  Add support for this.

5cfc8ee0bb ARM: convert arm to arch_gettimeoffset()
Convert arm to use GENERIC_TIME via the arch_getoffset() infrastructure,
reducing the amount of arch specific code we need to maintain.

The arm architecture is the last arch that need to be converted.

5d8614cc5d ARM: 5989/1: ARM: KGDB: add support for SMP platforms
To support SMP platforms, KGDB requires the architecture backend to
implement the kgdb_roundup_cpus function.

This patch, taken against 2.6.33, implements the function for ARM based
on the MIPS port.

1027247f6e ARM: Add L2 cache handling to smp boot support
The page table and secondary data which we're asking the secondary CPU
to make use of has to hit RAM to ensure that the secondary CPU can see
it since it may not be taking part in coherency or cache searches at
this point.

d10fca9f39 ARM: 5960/1: ARM: perf-events: fix v7 event selection mask
The event selection mask for ARMv7 cores [ARMV7_EVTSEL_MASK]
is incorrectly set to 0x7f. This means that the top bit of an
event ID is ignored, so counting branch misses (id=0x10) and
ISBs (id=0x90) give the same results.

This patch sets the event selection mask to the correct value
of 0xff.

ddee87f208 ARM: 5959/1: ARM: perf-events: request PMU interrupts with IRQF_NOBALANCING
If IRQ balancing is used on a multicore ARM system, PMU interrupt
lines may be relocated onto CPUs other than the one causing the
counter overflow. This can result in misattribution of events to
the wrong core and, in the case that the CPU handling the interrupt
has not experience counter overflow, the interrupt can be disabled
because the handler returns IRQ_NONE.

This patch adds the IRQF_NOBALANCING flag to the request_irq call
in perf_events.c.

440e6ca79a arm: use generic ptrace_resume code
Use the generic ptrace_resume code for PTRACE_SYSCALL, PTRACE_CONT,
PTRACE_KILL and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.  This implies defining
arch_has_single_step in <asm/ptrace.h> and implementing the
user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step functions, which also
causes the breakpoint information to be cleared on fork, which could be
considered a bug fix.

Also the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE thread flag is now cleared on PTRACE_KILL which
it previously wasn't and the single stepping disable only happens if the
tracee process isn't a zombie yet, which is consistent with all
architectures using the modern ptrace code.

baed7fc9b5 Add generic sys_ipc wrapper
Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall.  Except for
s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.

There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips
and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned
long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while
it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters.  frv goes even
further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which
is a pointer type everywhere.  The change from int to unsigned long for
"third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the
in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar
issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch
maintainers looks over this in details.

Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the
semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have
gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on
x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

It also optimizes PowerPC and tracepoint, because the struct

The generic macro takes a char * argument, rather than char **, so we

1b8873a0c6 ARM: 5902/4: arm/perfevents: implement perf event support for ARMv6
This patch implements support for ARMv6 performance counters in the
Linux performance events subsystem. ARMv6 architectures that have the
performance counters should enable HW_PERF_EVENTS to get hardware
performance events support in addition to the software events.

Note: only ARM Ltd ARM cores are supported.

This implementation also provides an ARM PMU abstraction layer to allow
ARMv7 and others to be supported in the future by adding new a
'struct arm_pmu'.

0f4f0672ac ARM: 5899/2: arm: provide a mechanism to reserve performance counters
To add support for perf events and to allow the hardware counters to be
shared with oprofile, we need a way to reserve access to the pmu
(performance monitor unit). Platforms with PMU interrupts should
register the interrupts in arch/arm/kernel/pmu.c

200b7a8dc0 ARM: 5884/1: arm: Fix DCC console for v7
Without this patch arch/arm/compressed/head.S defaults to generic
DCC code that does not work for v7.

For more information on the v7 DCC, see Cortex-A8 TRM
"12.11.1 Debug communications channel".

To use it with post 2.6.33-rc1 or later, you need to have:

CONFIG_DEBUG_LL=y
ONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC=y
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y

Earlier kernels need commit 93fd03a8c6
backported.

Tested on omap3430.

a7b2296277 ARM: 5883/1: Revert "disable NX support for OABI-supporting kernels"
This reverts commit 14f0aa3593.

That commit was needed earlier because system call restarting for
OABI (compat) required an executable stack and thus had problems
with NX.  Since ab72b00734 ("ARM: Fix signal restart issues
with NX and OABI compat") has reworked the code to not require an
executable stack anymore, we can re-enable NX support for kernels
with OABI (compat) support.

797245f5da ARM: Convert VFP/Crunch/XscaleCP thread_release() to exit_thread()
This avoids races in the VFP code where the dead thread may have
state on another CPU.  By moving this code to exit_thread(), we
will be running as the thread, and therefore be running on the
current CPU.

This means that we can ensure that the only local state is accessed
in the thread notifiers.

3e7b19efe6 ARM: unexport symbols used to implement floating point emulation
The Kconfigs for in-tree floating point emulation do not allow building
as modules. That leaves the Acorn FPEmulator module. I found two public
releases of this as a binary module for 2.1 and 2.2 kernels, optimized
for ARMV4.[1] If there is a resurgence of interest in this, the symbols
can always be re-exported.

This allows the EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS() hack to be removed. The ulterior
motive here is that EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS() makes it harder to sort the
resulting kernel symbol tables.  Sorted symbol tables will allow faster
symbol resolution during module loading.

Note that fp_send_sigs() and fp_printk() are simply aliases for existing
exports and add no obvious value.  Similarly fp_enter could easily be
renamed to kern_fp_enter at the point of definition. Therefore removing
EXPORT_SYMBOL_ALIAS will not serve as a material obstacle to re-adding
the exports should they be desired in future.

Build tested only.

e3f28c1333 ARM: use unified discard definition in linker script
Commit 023bf6f "linker script: unify usage of discard definition"
changed the linker scripts for all architectures except for ARM.
I can find no discussion about this ommision, so here are the changes
for ARM.

These changes are exactly parallel to the ia64 case.

"ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific
 subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final
 image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion."

Not boot-tested.  In build testing, the modified linker script generated
an identical vmlinux file.

[I would like to be able to rely on this unified discard definition.
 I want to sort the kernel symbol tables to allow faster symbol
 resolution during module loading. The simplest way appears to be
 to generate sorted versions from vmlinux.o, link them in to vmlinux,
 _and discard the original unsorted tables_.

 This work is driven by my x86 netbook, but it is implemented at a
 generic level. It is possible it will benefit some ARM systems also.]
