Len Brown a0bfa13738 cpuidle: stop depending on pm_idle
cpuidle users should call cpuidle_call_idle() directly
rather than via (pm_idle)() function pointer.

Architecture may choose to continue using (pm_idle)(),
but cpuidle need not depend on it:

  my_arch_cpu_idle()
	...
	if(cpuidle_call_idle())
		pm_idle();

Will Deacon 6cde6d4217 ARM: 6619/1: nommu: avoid mapping vectors page when !CONFIG_MMU
When running without an MMU, we do not need to install a mapping for the
vectors page. Attempting to do so causes a compile-time error because
install_special_mapping is not defined.

This patch adds compile-time guards to the vector mapping functions
so that we can build nommu configurations once more.

Nicolas Pitre ec706dab29 ARM: add a vma entry for the user accessible vector page
The kernel makes the high vector page visible to user space. This page
contains (amongst others) small code segments that can be executed in
user space.  Make this page visible through ptrace and /proc/<pid>/mem
in order to let gdb perform code parsing needed for proper unwinding.

For example, the ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK handler actually has a stack
frame -- it returns to a PC value stored on the user's stack.   To
unwind after a "sleep" system call was interrupted twice, GDB would
have to recognize this situation and understand that stack frame
layout -- which it currently cannot do.

We could fix this by hard-coding addresses in the vector page range into
GDB, but that isn't really portable as not all of those addresses are
guaranteed to remain stable across kernel releases.  And having the gdb
process make an exception for this page and get  content from its own
address space for it looks strange, and it is not future proof either.

Being located above PAGE_OFFSET, this vma cannot be deleted by
user space code.

Will Deacon 864232fa1a ARM: 6357/1: hw-breakpoint: add new ptrace requests for hw-breakpoint interaction
For debuggers to take advantage of the hw-breakpoint framework in the kernel,
it is necessary to expose the API calls via a ptrace interface.

This patch exposes the hardware breakpoints framework as a collection of
virtual registers, accesible using PTRACE_SETHBPREGS and PTRACE_GETHBPREGS
requests. The breakpoints are stored in the debug_info struct of the running
thread.

Russell King 3d3f78d752 ARM: call machine_shutdown() from machine_halt(), etc
x86 calls machine_shutdown() from the various machine_*() calls which
take the machine down ready for halting, restarting, etc, and uses
this to bring the system safely to a point where those actions can be
performed.  Such actions are stopping the secondary CPUs.

So, change the ARM implementation of these to reflect what x86 does.

This solves kexec problems on ARM SMP platforms, where the secondary
CPUs were left running across the kexec call.

Russell King 9ca03a21e3 ARM: Factor out common code from cpu_proc_fin()
All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts
and then flush caches.  Rather than have every processors proc_fin()
implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the
cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having
caches still enabled.)

This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache
types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support
code.

softirqs last disabled at (0): [<(null)>] (null)

Fix this by ensuring that the lockdep interrupt state is manipulated in
the appropriate places.  We essentially treat userspace as an entirely
separate environment which isn't relevant to lockdep (lockdep doesn't
monitor userspace.)  We don't tell lockdep that IRQs will be enabled
in that environment.

Instead, when creating kernel threads (which is a rare event compared
to entering/leaving userspace) we have to update the lockdep state.  Do
this by starting threads with IRQs disabled, and in the kthread helper,
tell lockdep that IRQs are enabled, and enable them.

This provides lockdep with a consistent view of the current IRQ state
in kernel space.

This also revert portions of 0d928b0b61
which didn't fix the problem.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Thomas Gleixner b8f8c3cf0a nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop
Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:

	scheduler switch to idle task
	enable interrupts

Window starts here

	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
	      	irq_exit() stops the tick

	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)

	return from schedule()
	
	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();

Window ends here

The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.

The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.

Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.

cpu_idle()
{
	preempt_disable();

	while(1) {
		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
		 			          are in the idle loop

		 while (!need_resched())
		       halt();

		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
		 schedule();
		 preempt_disable();
	}
}

In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 

/me grabs a large brown paperbag.

David Howells 7fa3031500 aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT
Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

One of the easiest things to isolate is the pid printed in kernel log.
There was a patch, that made this for arch-independent code, this one makes
so for arch/xxx files.

It took some time to cross-compile it, but hopefully these are all the
printks in arch code.

The ARM show_regs() tombstone only partially decodes which ARM ISA was
executing at the time a fault occurred displaying either "(T)" for the
Thumb case or nothing at all for other cases.  This patch therefore
explicitly identifies which state the processor is in at the time of
a fault: ARM, Thumb, Jazelle or JazelleEE.

Russell King ae0a846e41 [ARM] Move processor_modes[] to .../process.c
bad_mode() currently prints the mode which caused the exception, and
then causes an oops dump to be printed which again displays this
information (since the CPSR in the struct pt_regs is correct.)  This
leads to processor_modes[] being shared between traps.c and process.c
with a local declaration of it.

We can clean this up by moving processor_modes[] to process.c and
removing the duplication, resulting in processor_modes[] becoming
static.

Paul Gortmaker 122214428a [ARM] 3911/2: Simplify alloc_thread_info on ARM
Remove ARM local cache of 4 struct thread_info.
Can cause oops under certain circumstances.

Russell indicated the original optimization was
required on older kernels to avoid thread starvation
on memory fragmentation, but may no longer be
required.  I've updated the patch to 19rc4 and
ensured no <config.h> dain-bramage slipped in this
time (sorry about that).

Original description follows:

I was given some test results which pointed to an
Oops in alloc_thread_info (happened 2x), and after
looking at the code, I see that ARM has its own
local cache of 4 struct thread_info. There wasn't
any clear (to me) synchronization between the
alloc_thread_info and the free_thread_info.

I looked over the other arch, and they all simply
allocate them on an as needed basis, so I simplified
the ARM to do the same, based on the other arch
(e.g. PPC) and the folks doing the testing have
indicated that this fixed the oops.

     Related operation	Safe condition
  a. any CP15 access	!CPU_CP15
  b. alignment trap	CPU_CP15_MMU
  c. D-cache(C-bit)	CPU_CP15
  d. I-cache		CPU_CP15 && !( CPU_ARM610 || CPU_ARM710 ||
				CPU_ARM720 || CPU_ARM740 ||
				CPU_XSCALE || CPU_XSC3 )
  e. alternate vector	CPU_CP15 && !CPU_ARM740
  f. TTB		CPU_CP15_MMU
  g. Domain		CPU_CP15_MMU
  h. FSR/FAR		CPU_CP15_MMU

For example, alternate vector is supported if and only if
"CPU_CP15 && !CPU_ARM740" is satisfied.

Russell King d6551e884c [ARM] Add thread_notify infrastructure
Some machine classes need to allow VFP support to be built into the
kernel, but still allow the kernel to run even though VFP isn't
present.  Unfortunately, the kernel hard-codes VFP instructions
into the thread switch, which prevents this being run-time selectable.

Solve this by introducing a notifier which things such as VFP can
hook into to be informed of events which affect the VFP subsystem
(eg, creation and destruction of threads, switches between threads.)
