Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system
Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

As described in commit e6fa16ab9c ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.
Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f2
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code
across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong,
so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

Convert from pci_scan_bus() to pci_scan_root_bus() and remove root bus

seeing incorrect root bus resources.
This arch was unusual because it filled in bus->resource[0..3] in
pcibios_init(), then overwrote them, applied io_space.offset and
checked for unset resources in pcibios_fixup_bus(). I moved all of
that to a new pci_controller_apertures() that we can use before
scanning the root bus.

This patch converts Xtensa's architecture-specific
'pcibios_set_master()' routine to a non-inlined function. This will
allow follow on patches to create a generic 'pcibios_set_master()'
function using the '__weak' attribute which can be used by all
architectures as a default which, if necessary, can then be over-
ridden by architecture-specific code.
Converting 'pci_bios_set_master()' to a non-inlined function will
allow Xtensa's 'pcibios_set_master()' implementation to remain
architecture-specific after the generic version is introduced and
thus, not change current behavior.

Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the
percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel
addresses should be aligned accordingly. The calculation of the
former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel
image.
The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to
define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter.
Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking
percpu memory alignment.
This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to
PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE. While at it,
add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are
reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added
in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching
there.
For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area. As the area
is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:
arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.
Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

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.

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 which is consistent with all architectures using the
modern ptrace code.

Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported:
Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them.
This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.
This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes
build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile,
or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh)
Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by
pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the
arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script.
This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where
it is used.
Notes for the different architectures touched:
arm - we use an already exported symbol
cris - we use a config symbol aleady available
[Not build tested]
mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.
Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by
the linker script.
[Not build tested]
powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed
[not build tested]
sparc - simplified it using $(BITS)
um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this
xtensa - added options to CPP invocation

Discarded sections in different archs share some commonality but have
considerable differences. This led to linker script for each arch
implementing its own /DISCARD/ definition, which makes maintaining
tedious and adding new entries error-prone.
This patch makes all linker scripts to move discard definitions to the
end of the linker script and use the common DISCARDS macro. As ld
uses the first matching section definition, archs can include default
discarded sections by including them earlier in the linker script.
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.

Fix resembles implementation from Marc Gauthier and Piet Denaly:
In the Xtensa architecture, assembly generates literals which must always
precede the code (the L32R instruction that loads them only uses negative
PC-relative offsets). For any *.text section, literals are placed in a
corresponding *.literal section. The linker script (vmlinux.lds) must
place these in the correct order. It must also combine them, when the
*.text section can be larger than L32R's 256 kB range.
For example, this doesn't work: *(.literal) *(.text) because L32R
instructions at the end of .text can't reach the literals.
The linker can solve this if they are combined in parentheses, like this:
*(.literal .text)
because it is now allowed mix literals in .text to bring them in range.
None of this is done by standard vmlinux.lds.h macros such as TEXT_TEXT
and INIT_TEXT. To avoid replicating the logic of that header file, we
instead post-process the generated linker script to convert *(xxx.text)
to *(xxx.literal xxx.text) for the following text sections:
.text .ref.text .*init.text .*exit.text .text.*
using a sed script. To do this we must override the default rule for
vmlinux.lds (see scripts/Makefile.build and the top-level Makefile)
to insert this extra step.

Commit '28a0ce7 xtensa: use correct stack pointer for stack traces'
changed the stack tracer from always reading the stack pointer
register to always using the saved value in the task descriptor.
The author was too dense to consider the fact that the saved stack
value is stale for a running process und thus unusable for 'current'.
What we do now is to use the stack pointer register (a1) for when the
task is unknown - we can't help it then - or when the task is
'current'. For everything else use the saved stack pointer value
contained in the task descriptor.

Right now, the xtensa stacktrace code reads the _current_ kernel stack
pointer if nothing is supplied. With debugging facilities like sysrq
this means that the backtrace of the sysrq-handler is printed instead
of a trace of the given task's stack.
When no stack pointer is specified in show_trace() and show_stack(),
use the stack pointer that comes with the handed in task descriptor to
make stack traces more useful.

This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.
The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

Supporting the sa_restorer function allows for better security

The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and
registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only
accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows
to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers
needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch
or during interrupt handling.
This patch adds support for these additional states:
- save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon
interrupt entry and exit.
- context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor
- 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor
- ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers
- update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf

Add support for processors that have cache-aliasing issues, such as
the Stretch S5000 processor. Cache-aliasing means that the size of
the cache (for one way) is larger than the page size, thus, a page
can end up in several places in cache depending on the virtual to
physical translation. The method used here is to map a user page
temporarily through the auto-refill way 0 and of of the DTLB.
We probably will want to revisit this issue and use a better
approach with kmap/kunmap.

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.
One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.
This patch:
Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.
