In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti->status.
Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.
Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

This patch provides VIRT_CPU_ACCOUTING to PPC32 architecture.
PPC32 doesn't have the PACA structure, so we use the task_info
structure to store the accounting data.
In order to reuse on PPC32 the PPC64 functions, all u64 data has
been replaced by 'unsigned long' so that it is u32 on PPC32 and
u64 on PPC64

In order to support live patching we need to maintain an alternate
stack of TOC & LR values. We use the base of the stack for this, and
store the "live patch stack pointer" in struct thread_info.
Unlike the other fields of thread_info, we can not statically initialise
that value, so it must be done at run time.
This patch just adds the code to support that, it is not enabled until
the next patch which actually adds live patch support.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

In commit a3e5b356b3 "powerpc: Don't use local named register variable
in current_thread_info" Anton changed the way we did current_thread_info()
to accommodate LLVM, and it was not meant to have any effect elsewhere.
Unfortunately it has exposed a gcc bug, where r1 gets copied into
another register and then gcc uses that register to restore the toc
after a function call, even when that register is volatile and has been
clobbered by the function call.
We could revert Anton's patch, but it's not clear the original code is
safe either, we may just have been lucky.
The cleanest solution is to just use the existing CURRENT_THREAD_INFO()
asm macro, and call it using inline asm.
Segher points out we don't need volatile on the asm, if the result of
the shift is unused it's fine for the compiler to elide it.

LLVM doesn't support local named register variables and is unlikely
to. current_thread_info is using one, fix it by moving it out and
calling it __current_r1().
I gave it a bit of an obscure name because we don't want anyone else
using it - they should use current_stack_pointer(). This specific
case is performance critical and we can't afford to call a function
to get it. Furthermore it isn't important to know exactly where in
the stack we are since we mask the lower bits.

Currently, when we have a process using the transactional memory
facilities on POWER8 (that is, the processor is in transactional
or suspended state), and the process enters the kernel and the
kernel then uses the floating-point or vector (VMX/Altivec) facility,
we end up corrupting the user-visible FP/VMX/VSX state. This
happens, for example, if a page fault causes a copy-on-write
operation, because the copy_page function will use VMX to do the
copy on POWER8. The test program below demonstrates the bug.
The bug happens because when FP/VMX state for a transactional process
is stored in the thread_struct, we store the checkpointed state in
.fp_state/.vr_state and the transactional (current) state in
.transact_fp/.transact_vr. However, when the kernel wants to use
FP/VMX, it calls enable_kernel_fp() or enable_kernel_altivec(),
which saves the current state in .fp_state/.vr_state. Furthermore,
when we return to the user process we return with FP/VMX/VSX
disabled. The next time the process uses FP/VMX/VSX, we don't know
which set of state (the current register values, .fp_state/.vr_state,
or .transact_fp/.transact_vr) we should be using, since we have no
way to tell if we are still in the same transaction, and if not,
whether the previous transaction succeeded or failed.
Thus it is necessary to strictly adhere to the rule that if FP has
been enabled at any point in a transaction, we must keep FP enabled
for the user process with the current transactional state in the
FP registers, until we detect that it is no longer in a transaction.
Similarly for VMX; once enabled it must stay enabled until the
process is no longer transactional.
In order to keep this rule, we add a new thread_info flag which we
test when returning from the kernel to userspace, called TIF_RESTORE_TM.
This flag indicates that there is FP/VMX/VSX state to be restored
before entering userspace, and when it is set the .tm_orig_msr field
in the thread_struct indicates what state needs to be restored.
The restoration is done by restore_tm_state(). The TIF_RESTORE_TM
bit is set by new giveup_fpu/altivec_maybe_transactional helpers,
which are called from enable_kernel_fp/altivec, giveup_vsx, and
flush_fp/altivec_to_thread instead of giveup_fpu/altivec.
The other thing to be done is to get the transactional FP/VMX/VSX
state from .fp_state/.vr_state when doing reclaim, if that state
has been saved there by giveup_fpu/altivec_maybe_transactional.
Having done this, we set the FP/VMX bit in the thread's MSR after
reclaim to indicate that that part of the state is now valid
(having been reclaimed from the processor's checkpointed state).
Finally, in the signal handling code, we move the clearing of the
transactional state bits in the thread's MSR a bit earlier, before
calling flush_fp_to_thread(), so that we don't unnecessarily set
the TIF_RESTORE_TM bit.
This is the test program:
/* Michael Neuling 4/12/2013
*
* See if the altivec state is leaked out of an aborted transaction due to
* kernel vmx copy loops.
*
* gcc -m64 htm_vmxcopy.c -o htm_vmxcopy

Pull powerpc LE updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"With my previous pull request I mentioned some remaining Little Endian
patches, notably support for our new ABI, which I was sitting on
making sure it was all finalized.
The toolchain folks confirmed it now, the new ABI is stable and merged
with gcc, so we are all good. Oh and we actually missed the actual
Kconfig switch for LE so here it is, along with a couple more bug
fixes.
I have more fixes but not related to LE so I'll send them as a
separate pull request tomorrow, let's get this one out of the way.
Note that this supports running user space binaries using the new ABI,
but the kernel itself still needs to be built with the old one. We'll
bring fixes for that after -rc1.
Here's Anton log that goes with this series:
This patch series adds support for the new ABI, LPAR support for
H_SET_MODE and finally adds a kconfig option and defconfig.
ABIv2 support was recently committed to binutils and gcc, and should
be merged into glibc soon. There are a number of very nice
improvements including the removal of function descriptors. Rusty's
kernel patches allow binaries of either ABI to work, easing the
transition"

Little endian ppc64 is getting an exciting new ABI. This is reflected
by the bottom two bits of e_flags in the ELF header:
0 == legacy binaries (v1 ABI)
1 == binaries using the old ABI (compiled with a new toolchain)
2 == binaries using the new ABI.
We store this in a thread flag, because we need to set it in core
dumps and for signal delivery. Our chief concern is that it doesn't
use function descriptors.

This moves the inlines into system.h and changes the runlatch
code to use the thread local flags (non-atomic) rather than
the TIF flags (atomic) to keep track of the latch state.
The code to turn it back on in an asynchronous interrupt is
now simplified and partially inlined.

This patch implements the raw syscall tracepoints on PowerPC and exports
them for ftrace syscalls to use.
To minimise reworking existing code, I slightly re-ordered the thread
info flags such that the new TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT bit would still fit
within the 16 bits of the andi. instruction's UI field. The instructions
in question are in /arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_{32,64}.S to and the
_TIF_SYSCALL_T_OR_A with the thread flags to see if system call tracing
is enabled.
In the case of 64bit PowerPC, arch_syscall_addr and
arch_syscall_match_sym_name are overridden to allow ftrace syscalls to
work given the unusual system call table structure and symbol names that
start with a period.

Fix up powerpc to the new mmu_gather stuff.
PPC has an extra batching queue to RCU free the actual pagetable
allocations, use the ARCH extentions for that for now.
For the ppc64_tlb_batch, which tracks the vaddrs to unhash from the
hardware hash-table, keep using per-cpu arrays but flush on context switch
and use a TLF bit to track the lazy_mmu state.

Pull the initial preempt_count value into a single
definition site.
Maintainers for: alpha, ia64 and m68k, please have a look,
your arch code is funny.
The header magic is a bit odd, but similar to the KERNEL_DS
one, CPP waits with expanding these macros until the
INIT_THREAD_INFO macro itself is expanded, which is in
arch/*/kernel/init_task.c where we've already included
sched.h so we're good.

This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards.
For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume
2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space
reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are
actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the
high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g.
RAID).
Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize
the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size
depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.).
With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down
to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be
occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not
separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that
value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively.
Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB,
one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP.
Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should
use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K
for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized
kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows:
--- binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c.orig
+++ binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c
-#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x10000
+#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x40000
One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability
to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn
the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN).
Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM
dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here:

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places

one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
