First, fix a bug in asm/unaligned.h; we need to just use the asm-generic
unaligned.h so we properly choose endian-correct flavors.
Second, keep the hv/hypervisor.h ABI fully "native" in the sense that
we don't have __BIG_ENDIAN__ ifdefs there. Instead, we use macros in
the head_NN.S assembly code to properly extract two 32-bit structure
members from a 64-bit register holding the structure.

This change adds support for CONFIG_PREEMPT (full kernel preemption).
In addition to the core support, this change includes a number
of places where we fix up uses of smp_processor_id() and per-cpu
variables. I also eliminate the PAGE_HOME_HERE and PAGE_HOME_UNKNOWN
values for page homing, as it turns out they weren't being used.

First, in huge_pte_offset(), we were erroneously checking
pgd_present(), which is always true, rather than pud_present(),
which is the thing that tells us if there is a top-level (L0) PTE.
Fixing this means we properly look up huge page entries only when
the Present bit is actually set in the PTE.
Second, use the standard pte_alloc_map() instead of the hand-rolled
pte_alloc_hugetlb() routine that basically was written to avoid
worrying about CONFIG_HIGHPTE. However, we no longer plan to support
HIGHPTE, so a separate routine was just unnecessary code duplication.

This change adds support for avoiding recursive backtracer crashes;
we haven't seen this in practice other than when things are seriously
corrupt, but it may help avoid losing the root cause of a crash.
Also, don't abort kernel backtracers for invalid userspace PC's.
If we do, we lose the ability to backtrace through a userspace
call to a bad address above PAGE_OFFSET, even though that it can
be perfectly reasonable to continue the backtrace in such a case.

This change enables unaligned userspace memory access via a kernel
fast path on tilegx. The kernel tracks user PC/instruction pairs
per-thread using a direct-mapped cache in userspace. The cache
maps those PC/instruction pairs to JIT'ed instruction sequences that
load or store using byte-wide load store intructions and then
synthesize 2-, 4- or 8-byte load or store results. Once an
instruction has been seen to generate an unaligned access once,
subsequent hits on that instruction typically require overhead
of only around 50 cycles if cache and TLB is hot.
We support the prctl() PR_GET_UNALIGN / PR_SET_UNALIGN sys call to
enable or disable unaligned fixups on a per-process basis.
To do this we pull some of the tilepro unaligned support out of the
single_step.c file; tilepro uses instruction disassembly for both
single-step and unaligned access support. Since tilegx actually has
hardware singlestep support, though, it's cleaner to keep the tilegx
unaligned access code in a separate file. While we're at it,
properly rename the tilepro-specific types, etc., to have tilepro
suffixes instead of generic tile suffixes.

This change adds support for the "memmap" boot parameter similar
to what x86 provides. The tile version supports "memmap=1G$5G",
for example, as a way to reserve a 1 GB range starting at PA 5GB.
The memory is reserved via bootmem during startup, and we create a
suitable "struct resource" marked as "Reserved" so you can see the
range reported by /proc/iomem. Up to 64 such regions can currently
be reserved on the boot command line.
We do not support the x86 options "memmap=nn@ss" (force some memory
to be available at the given address) since it's pointless to try to
have Linux use memory the Tilera hypervisor hasn't given it. We do
not support "memmap=nn#ss" to add an ACPI range for later processing,
since we don't support ACPI. We do not support "memmap=exactmap"
since we don't support reading the e820 information from the BIOS
like x86 does. I did add support for "memmap=nn" (and the synonym
"mem=nn") which cap the highest PA value at "nn"; these are both
just a synonym for the existing tile boot option "maxmem".

This change improves and cleans up the tile console.
- We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new
Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI. If IPI
support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode.
- We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some
of the other supporting earlyprintk code.
- A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to
the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver.
This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using
simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly
faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.

The standard kernel function dma_get_required_mask() uses the
highest DRAM address to determine if 32-bit or 64-bit DMA addressing
is needed. This only works on architectures that have direct mapping
between the PA and the PCI address space, i.e. those that don't have
I/O TLBs or have I/O TLB but choose to use direct mapping. Neither
of these are true for tilegx. Whether to use 64-bit DMA should depend
on the PCI device's capability only, not on the amount of DRAM
installeds, so we now advertise a 64-bit DMA mask unconditionally.

The LSI MEGARAID SAS HBA suffers from the problem where it can do
64-bit DMA to streaming buffers but not to consistent buffers.
In other words, 64-bit DMA is used for disk data transfers and 32-bit
DMA must be used for control message transfers. According to LSI,
the firmware is not fully functional yet. This change implements a
kind of hybrid dma_ops to support this.
Note that on most other platforms, the 64-bit DMA addressing space is the
same as the 32-bit DMA space and they overlap the physical memory space.
No special arrangement is needed to support this kind of mixed DMA
capability. On TILE-Gx, the 64-bit DMA space is completely separate
from the 32-bit DMA space. Due to the use of the IOMMU, the 64-bit DMA
space doesn't overlap the physical memory space. On the other hand,
the 32-bit DMA space overlaps the physical memory space under 4GB.
The separate address spaces make it necessary to have separate dma_ops.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/tile uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. Currently tile does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.

A few remaining architectures directly kill the page faulting task in an

task might not even use a significant amount of memory and so may not be
the optimal victim to resolve the situation.
Since 2.6.29's 1c0fe6e ("mm: invoke oom-killer from page fault") there
is a hook that architecture page fault handlers are supposed to call to
invoke the OOM killer and let it pick the right task to kill. Convert
the remaining architectures over to this hook.
To have the previous behavior of simply taking out the faulting task the
vm.oom_kill_allocating_task sysctl can be set to 1.

This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig

Pull voluntary preemption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains a speedup which is achieved through better
might_sleep()/might_fault() preemption point annotations for uaccess
functions, by Michael S Tsirkin:
1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
Make this explicit for all architectures.
2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
are very fast and small that e.g. net code seems to make. Remove
this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
assume.
3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
like net/sunrpc does will never sleep. Remove an unconditinal
might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
PROVE_LOCKING is not set).
4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
caller to sleep. Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
PROVE_LOCKING is set.

Merge tag 'v3.10' into sched/core
Merge in a recent upstream commit:
c2853c8df5 include/linux/math64.h: add div64_ul()
because:
72a4cf20cb sched: Change cfs_rq load avg to unsigned long
relies on it.
[ We don't rebase sched/core for this, because the handful of
followup commits after the broken commit are not behavioral
changes so are unlikely to be needed during bisection. ]

Most of the stuff from kernel/sched.c was moved to kernel/sched/core.c long time
back and the comments/Documentation never got updated.
I figured it out when I was going through sched-domains.txt and so thought of
fixing it globally.
I haven't crossed check if the stuff that is referenced in sched/core.c by all
these files is still present and hasn't changed as that wasn't the motive behind
this patch.

gcc 4.7.x is emitting calls to __ffsdi2 where previously
it used to inline the appropriate ctz instructions.
While this needs to be fixed in gcc, it's also easy to avoid
having it cause build failures when building with those
compilers by exporting __ffsdi2 to modules.

"The interesting bug fix is support for the upcoming "4.2" release of
the Tilera hypervisor, which by default launches Linux at privilege

The Tilera hypervisor shipped in releases up through MDE 4.1 launches
the client operating system (i.e. Linux) at privilege level 1 (PL1).
Starting with MDE 4.2, as part of the work to enable KVM, the
Tilera hypervisor launches Linux at PL2 instead.
This commit makes the KERNEL_PL option default to 2 for tilegx, while
still saying at 1 for tilepro, which doesn't have an updated hypervisor.
It also explains how and when you might want to choose another value.
In addition, we change a small buglet in the on-chip Ethernet driver,
where we were failing to use the KERNEL_PL constant in an API call.
To make the transition cleaner, this change also provides the updated
hv_init() API for the new hypervisor that supports announcing Linux's
compiled-in PL, so the hypervisor can generate a suitable error in the
case of a mismatched hypervisor and Linux binary.

The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.
To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.
Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.
While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.
alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
um, xtensa
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

This patchset removes vm_struct list management after initializing
vmalloc. Adding and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time
complexity, so it is inefficient. If we maintain this list, overall
time complexity of adding and removing area to vmalloc space is O(N),
although we use rbtree for finding vacant place and it's time complexity
is just O(logN).
And vmlist and vmlist_lock is used many places of outside of vmalloc.c.
It is preferable that we hide this raw data structure and provide
well-defined function for supporting them, because it makes that they
cannot mistake when manipulating theses structure and it makes us easily
maintain vmalloc layer.
For kexec and makedumpfile, I export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist.
This comes from Atsushi's recommendation. For more information, please
refer below link. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/6/184
This patch:
The purpose of iterating a vmlist is finding vm area with specific virtual
address. find_vm_area() is provided for this purpose and more efficient,
because it uses a rbtree. So change it.

Commit abf09bed3c ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")
introduced another difference in the pte layout vs. the pmd layout on
s390, thoroughly breaking the s390 support for hugetlbfs. This requires
replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
huge_pte_xxx version.
This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change
will be a no-op for those architectures.

The current Tilera boot infrastructure now provides the initramfs
to Linux as a Tilera-hypervisor file named "initramfs", rather than
"initramfs.cpio.gz", as before. (This makes it reasonable to use
other compression techniques than gzip on the file without having to
worry about the name causing confusion.) Adapt to use the new name,
but also fall back to checking for the old name.
Cc'ing to stable so that older kernels will remain compatible with
newer Tilera boot infrastructure.

ns2cycles use per_cpu variables, and will, eventually, find its way into
smp_processor_id(). This is not safe in a preemptible kernel;
preemption should ideally be disabled.
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code:
systemd-modules/367
caller is ns2cycles+0x40/0xb8
Starting stack dump of tid 367, pid 367 (systemd-modules) on cpu 2 at
cycle 20969956421
frame 0: 0xfffffff70004b860 dump_stack+0x0/0x20 (sp 0xfffffe407993fa90)

However, in this case:
- the frequency is the same accross all cores
- we use the data read-only
- we do not scale the frequency
Which means that we can use the __raw_get_cpu_var instead.

sys_llseek should specify the high and low 32-bit seek values as "unsigned
int" but instead it specifies "unsigned long". Since compat syscall
arguments are always sign-extended on tile, this means that a seek value
of 0xffffffff will be incorrectly interpreted as a value of -1ULL.
To avoid the risk of breaking binary compatibility on architectures
that already use sys_llseek this way, we follow the same path as MIPS
and provide a wrapper override.

swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD). The main contention comes
from swap_info_get(). This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
per-partition lock.
Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.
nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock. In
theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
there are free swap pages. But sounds not a big problem.
Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
protected by swap_info_struct.lock.
Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it. read the
flags is ok with either the locks hold.
If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
the former first to avoid deadlock.
swap_entry_free() can change swap_list. To delete that code, we add a
new highest_priority_index. Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
check it. If it's valid, we use it.
It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock(). But in practice,
swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush). And
BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock. We never free
swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag. The only risk without the
lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.
"swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s. This patch further improves the
speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement. It's a multi-process test,
so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

This provides a band-aid to provide stable page writes on jbd without
needing to backport the fixed locking and page writeback bit handling
schemes of jbd2. The band-aid works by using bounce buffers to snapshot
page contents instead of waiting.
For those wondering about the ext3 bandage -- fixing the jbd locking
(which was done as part of ext4dev years ago) is a lot of surgery, and
setting PG_writeback on data pages when we actually hold the page lock
dropped ext3 performance by nearly an order of magnitude. If we're
going to migrate iscsi and raid to use stable page writes, the
complaints about high latency will likely return. We might as well
centralize their page snapshotting thing to one place.

The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.
The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.

This fixes up all of the smaller arches that had __dev* markings for
their platform-specific drivers.
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.
This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.
Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

A few new features this merge-window. The most important one is
probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
dma_mapping_error by the device driver. This requires minor changes to
some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these changes
have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.
Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor the
IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a hardware
erratum.
The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The conflict
is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is deleted in
the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so solve the
conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in the common
clock framework migration. A missing hunk from the patch in the IOMMU

to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched

In commit d0a21265df David Rientjes unified various archs'
module_alloc implementation (including x86) and removed the graduitous
shortcut for size == 0.
Then, in commit de7d2b567d, Joe Perches added a warning for
zero-length vmallocs, which can happen without kallsyms on modules
with no init sections (eg. zlib_deflate).
Fix this once and for all; the module code has to handle zero length
anyway, so get it right at the caller and remove the now-gratuitous
checks within the arch-specific module_alloc implementations.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.
Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.

Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
