Deng-Cheng Zhu ba9786f324 MIPS, Perf-events: Use unsigned delta for right shift in event update
Leverage the commit for ARM by Will Deacon:

- 446a5a8b1e
    ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsigned

    Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
    variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.

    The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
    and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
    if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
    such as:

     Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':

     18446744073460670464  cycles             <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000
            7783773  instructions             #      0.000 IPC
                465  context-switches
                161  page-faults
            1172393  branches

       20.154242147  seconds time elapsed

    This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the
    right shift sets the upper bits to zero.

Deng-Cheng Zhu 98f92f2f9e MIPS, Perf-events: Work with the new callchain interface
This is the MIPS part of the following commits by Frederic Weisbecker:

- f72c1a931e
    perf: Factorize callchain context handling

    Store the kernel and user contexts from the generic layer instead
    of archs, this gathers some repetitive code.

- 56962b4449
    perf: Generalize some arch callchain code

    - Most archs use one callchain buffer per cpu, except x86 that needs
      to deal with NMIs. Provide a default perf_callchain_buffer()
      implementation that x86 overrides.

    - Centralize all the kernel/user regs handling and invoke new arch
      handlers from there: perf_callchain_user() / perf_callchain_kernel()
      That avoid all the user_mode(), current->mm checks and so...

    - Invert some parameters in perf_callchain_*() helpers: entry to the
      left, regs to the right, following the traditional (dst, src).

- 70791ce9ba
    perf: Generalize callchain_store()

    callchain_store() is the same on every archs, inline it in
    perf_event.h and rename it to perf_callchain_store() to avoid
    any collision.

    This removes repetitive code.

- c1a65932fd
    perf: Drop unappropriate tests on arch callchains

    Drop the TASK_RUNNING test on user tasks for callchains as
    this check doesn't seem to make any sense.

    Also remove the tests for !current that is not supposed to
    happen and current->pid as this should be handled at the
    generic level, with exclude_idle attribute.

Deng-Cheng Zhu c049b6a5f2 MIPS, Perf-events: Fix event check in validate_event()
Ignore events that are in off/error state or belong to a different PMU.

This patch originates from the following commit for ARM by Will Deacon:

- 65b4711ff5
    ARM: 6352/1: perf: fix event validation

    The validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the
    following problems:

    1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost.
    2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or
        breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation,
        causing the group to fail.

    This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the
    PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.

Deng-Cheng Zhu 404ff63840 MIPS, Perf-events: Work with the new PMU interface
This is the MIPS part of the following commits by Peter Zijlstra:

- a4eaf7f146
    perf: Rework the PMU methods

    Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
    pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.

    The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
    keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
    the generic stopped state.

    This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
    code paths (like IRQ handlers).

    It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
    a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).

    The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
    how the architecture implemented the throttled state:

     1) We disable the counter:
        a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
        b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state

     2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events

For MIPSXX, the stopped state is implemented in the way of 1.b as above.

- 33696fc0d1
    perf: Per PMU disable

    Changes perf_disable() into perf_pmu_disable().

- 24cd7f54a0
    perf: Reduce perf_disable() usage

    Since the current perf_disable() usage is only an optimization,
    remove it for now. This eases the removal of the __weak
    hw_perf_enable() interface.

- b0a873ebbf
    perf: Register PMU implementations

    Simple registration interface for struct pmu, this provides the
    infrastructure for removing all the weak functions.

- 51b0fe3954
    perf: Deconstify struct pmu

    sed -ie 's/const struct pmu\>/struct pmu/g' `git grep -l "const struct pmu\>"`

Deng-Cheng Zhu 91f017372a MIPS, Perf-events: Work with irq_work
This is the MIPS part of the following commit by Peter Zijlstra:

- e360adbe29
    irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks

    Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
    most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
    system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

    Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
    a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
    benefit.

    The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
    possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
    built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

    Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
    callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
    irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
    work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
    processing the work.

For MIPSXX, we need to call irq_work_run() at the tail of the perf IRQ
handler as described above.

In the case of protected_restore_fp_context{,32}, the variable tmp is

Wu Zhangjin b9f07eb2f2 MIPS, Tracing: Fix set_graph_function of function graph tracer
trace.func should be set to the recorded ip of the mcount calling site
in the __mcount_loc section to filter the function entries configured
through the tracing/set_graph_function interface, but before, this is
set to the self_ra(the return address of mcount), which has made
set_graph_function not work as expected.

This fixes it via calculating the right recorded ip in the __mcount_loc
section and assign it to trace.func.

Wu Zhangjin 2816e32596 MIPS, Tracing: Clean up prepare_ftrace_return()
The old prepare_ftrace_return() for MIPS is confused and have introduced
some problem. This patch cleans up the names of the arguments, variables
and related functions.

For MIPS, the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not really the
'selfpc' described in ftrace-design.txt but instead it is the self
return address. This did break the compatibility of the generic
interface but really reduced one unneeded calculation for to get the
current function name, the parent return address and the self return
address are enough, no need to tranform the self return address to the
self address.

But set_graph_function of function graph tracer is an exception, it does
need the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() as 'selfpc', for it
will use 'selfpc' to match user's configuration of function graph
entries, but in reality, it doesn't need the 'selfpc' but the recorded
ip address of the mcount calling site in the __mcount_loc section. So,
the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not important, the real
requirement is the right recorded ip address should be calculated and
assign to trace.func, this will be fixed in the next patches.

David Rientjes d0a21265df mm: unify module_alloc code for vmalloc
Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for
module_init().  Much of the code is duplicated and can be generalized in a
globally accessible function, __vmalloc_node_range().

__vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of
[VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END) for functionally equivalent behavior.

Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove
the duplication of code.

Kevin Cernekee 5878fc936a MIPS: Fix CP0 COUNTER clockevent race
Consider the following test case:

write_c0_compare(read_c0_count());

Even if the counter doesn't increment during execution, this might not
generate an interrupt until the counter wraps around.  The CPU may
perform the comparison each time CP0 COUNT increments, not when CP0
COMPARE is written.

If mips_next_event() is called with a very small delta, and CP0 COUNT
increments during the calculation of "cnt += delta", it is possible
that CP0 COMPARE will be written with the current value of CP0 COUNT.
If this is detected, the function should return -ETIME, to indicate
that the interrupt might not have actually gotten scheduled.

We were unconditionally sending SIGBUS with an empty siginfo on FP
emulator faults.  This differs from what happens when real floating

For most faults we need to send SIGSEGV with the faulting address
filled in in the struct siginfo.

Al Viro a989ff898f MIPS: Don't stomp on caller's ->regs[2] in copy_thread()
We never needed that (->regs[2] is overwritten on return from syscall paths
with return value of syscall, so storing it there early made no sense) and
with new restart logics since d27240bf7e61d2656de18e158ec910a902030847 it
has become really bad - we lose the original syscall number before the
place where we decide that we might need a syscall restart.

Note that for child we do need the assignment to regs[2] - it won't go
through the normal return from syscall path.

Peter Zijlstra 004417a6d4 perf, arch: Cleanup perf-pmu init vs lockup-detector
The perf hardware pmu got initialized at various points in the boot,
some before early_initcall() some after (notably arch_initcall).

The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall()
and expects the hardware pmu to be present.

Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to
initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit
initcall right after that.

David Daney 949e51bea3 MIPS: Make TASK_SIZE reflect proper size for both 32 and 64 bit processes.
The TASK_SIZE macro should reflect the size of a user process virtual
address space.  Previously for 64-bit kernels, this was not the case.
The immediate cause of pain was in
hugetlbfs/inode.c:hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() where 32-bit processes
trying to mmap a huge page would be served a page with an address
outside of the 32-bit address range.  But there are other uses of
TASK_SIZE in the kernel as well that would like an accurate value.

The new definition is nice because it now makes TASK_SIZE and
TASK_SIZE_OF() yield the same value for any given process.

For 32-bit kernels there should be no change, although I did factor
out some code in asm/processor.h that became identical for the 32-bit and
64-bit cases.

__UA_LIMIT is now set to ~((1 << SEGBITS) - 1) for 64-bit kernels.
This should eliminate the possibility of getting a
AddressErrorException in the kernel for addresses that pass the
access_ok() test.

With the patch applied, I can still run o32, n32 and n64 processes,
and have an o32 shell fork/exec both n32 and n64 processes.

Kevin Cernekee 602977b0d6 MIPS: Decouple BMIPS CPU support from bcm47xx/bcm63xx SoC code
BMIPS processor cores are used in 50+ different chipsets spread across
5+ product lines.  In many cases the chipsets do not share the same
peripheral register layouts, the same register blocks, the same
interrupt controllers, the same memory maps, or much of anything else.

But, across radically different SoCs that share nothing more than the
same BMIPS CPU, a few things are still mostly constant:

SMP operations
Access to performance counters
DMA cache coherency quirks
Cache and memory bus configuration

So, it makes sense to treat each BMIPS processor type as a generic
"building block," rather than tying it to a specific SoC.  This makes it
easier to support a large number of BMIPS-based chipsets without
unnecessary duplication of code, and provides the infrastructure needed
to support BMIPS-proprietary features.

Deng-Cheng Zhu 3a9ab99e03 MIPS: Add support for hardware performance events (mipsxx)
This patch adds the mipsxx Perf-events support based on the skeleton.
Generic hardware events and cache events are now fully implemented for
the 24K/34K/74K/1004K cores. To support other cores in mipsxx (such as
R10000/SB1), the generic hardware event tables and cache event tables
need to be filled out. To support other CPUs which have different PMU
than mipsxx, such as RM9000 and LOONGSON2, the additional files
perf_event_$cpu.c need to be created.

Raw event is an important part of Perf-events. It helps the user collect
performance data for events that are not listed as the generic hardware
events and cache events but ARE supported by the CPU's PMU.

This patch also adds this feature for mipsxx 24K/34K/74K/1004K. For how to
use it, please refer to processor core software user's manual and the
comments for mipsxx_pmu_map_raw_event() for more details.

Please note that this is a "precise" implementation, which means the
kernel will check whether the requested raw events are supported by this
CPU and which hardware counters can be assigned for them.

To test the functionality of Perf-event, you may want to compile the tool
"perf" for your MIPS platform. You can refer to the following URL:
http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2010-10/msg00126.html

You also need to customize the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS in tools/perf/Makefile
for your libs, includes, etc.

In case you encounter the boot failure in SMVP kernel on multi-threading
CPUs, you may take a look at:

Deng-Cheng Zhu 14f7001284 MIPS: add support for hardware performance events (skeleton)
This patch provides the skeleton of the HW perf event support. To enable
this feature, we can not choose the SMTC kernel; Oprofile should be
disabled; kernel performance events be selected. Then we can enable it in
Kernel type menu.

Oprofile for MIPS platforms initializes irq at arch init time. Currently
we do not change this logic to allow PMU reservation.

If a platform has EIC, we can use the irq base and perf counter irq offset
defines for the interrupt controller in specific init_hw_perf_events().

Based on this skeleton patch, the 3 different kinds of MIPS PMU, namely,
mipsxx/loongson2/rm9000, can be supported by adding corresponding lower
level C files at the bottom. The suggested names of these files are
perf_event_mipsxx.c/perf_event_loongson2.c/perf_event_rm9000.c. So, for
example, we can do this by adding "#include perf_event_mipsxx.c" at the
bottom of perf_event.c.

In addition, PMUs with 64bit counters are also considered in this patch.

Put the original syscall number into ->regs[0] when we leave syscall
with error.  Use it in restart logics.  Everything else will have
it 0 since we pass through SAVE_SOME on all the ways in.  Note that
in places like bad_stack and inllegal_syscall we leave it 0 - it's not
restartable.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

David Howells df9ee29270 Fix IRQ flag handling naming
Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:

	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
	...

and under the other configuration, it maps:

	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
	...

This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.

Change this to have the arch provide:

	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
	arch_local_irq_disable()
	arch_local_irq_enable()
	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	arch_irqs_disabled()
	arch_safe_halt()

Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:

	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
	raw_local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_enable()
	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	raw_irqs_disabled()
	raw_safe_halt()

with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:

	local_save_flags(flags)
	local_irq_save(flags)
	local_irq_restore(flags)
	local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_enable()
	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	irqs_disabled()
	safe_halt()

with tracing included if enabled.

The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

The problem appeared with a system that uses the eglibc 2.12-r11187 (that
utilizes that new syscall) is very confused. The fix has been tested with
that eglibc version.

David Howells d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
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.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

David Daney 70dc6f045f MIPS: Clean up notify_die() usage.
The sixth argument of notify_die() is a signal number, the fifth is a
trap number.

Instead of passing a signal number in a randomly selected argument,
pass it in the sixth.  Extract the exception code from regs and pass
that as the trap number.

Get rid of redundant cast, and remove some gratuitous spaces.

Nobody actually does anything with the signal number or trap number,
but we might as well populate them with sensible values.

Sam Ravnborg 66f9ba101f MIPS: Add -Werror to arch/mips/Kbuild
Adding subdirs-ccflags-y := -Werror to arch/mips/Kbuild
let us in one go cover all files with -Werror.

In addition this allows us to remove the
individual -Werror definition in various Makefile.

Adding the definition to Kbuild as a recursive
option help us not to forget to do so.

With this change we now compile arch/mips/kernel/cpufreq with -Werror

One drawback:
When specifying a subdirectory covered by the Kbuild file like this:

    make arch/mips/kernel/

then kbuild fails to pick up the -Werror definition.

David Daney 1ed845375b MIPS: Make init_vdso a subsys_initcall.
Quoting from Jiri Slaby's patch of a similar nature for x86:

    When initrd is in use and a driver does request_module() in its
    module_init (i.e. __initcall or device_initcall), a modprobe
    process is created with VDSO mapping. But VDSO is inited even in
    __initcall, i.e. on the same level (at the same time), so it may
    not be inited yet (link order matters).

Move init_vdso up to subsys_initcall to avoid the issue.

Note:  This will not work when the kernel space and module space are the

Jason Wessel 5dd11d5d47 mips,kgdb: kdb low level trap catch and stack trace
The only way the debugger can handle a trap in inside rcu_lock,
notify_die, or atomic_notifier_call_chain without a recursive fault is
to have a low level "first opportunity handler" do_trap_or_bp() handler.

Generally this will be something the vast majority of folks will not
need, but for those who need it, it is added as a kernel .config
option called KGDB_LOW_LEVEL_TRAP.

Also added was a die notification for oops such that kdb can catch an
oops for analysis.

There appeared to be no obvious way to pass the struct pt_regs from
the original exception back to the stack back tracer, so a special
case was added to show_stack() for when kdb is active because you
generally desire to generally look at the back trace of the original
exception.

Jason Wessel dcc7871128 kgdb: core changes to support kdb
These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.

This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed.  It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.

You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically.  From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.

The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected.  That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state.  The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.

Before this we were using XKPHYS/cached as ebase and computed the uncached
xphsys/unchached address for that area. After that commit ebase became a
32-bit compat address and convert does not work anymore.  We now should use
CKSEG1 for this. CKSEG1ADDR does just that in 32-bit and 64-bit.

The MIPS implementation of die() forgets to call notify_die() and thus notifiers

The only subtlety is that notify_die declares its regs argument w/o const, so

David Daney f6be75d03c MIPS: Calculate proper ebase value for 64-bit kernels
The ebase is relative to CKSEG0 not CAC_BASE.  On a 32-bit kernel they
are the same thing, for a 64-bit kernel they are not.

It happens to kind of work on a 64-bit kernel as they both reference
the same physical memory.  However since the CPU uses the CKSEG0 base,
determining if a J instruction will reach always gives the wrong result
unless we use the same number the CPU uses.

David Daney d814c28cec MIPS: Move signal trampolines off of the stack.
This is a follow on to the vdso patch.

Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we
can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and
invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs.  We also get rid
of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code.

[Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing
over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow.  The old signal
frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane
processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR.  So
there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames
on all MIPS systems.  This convinved me this series should be applied and
pushed upstream as soon as possible.]

David Daney c52d0d30ae MIPS: Preliminary VDSO
This is a preliminary patch to add a vdso to all user processes.  Still
missing are ELF headers and .eh_frame information.  But it is enough to
allow us to move signal trampolines off of the stack.  Note that emulation
of branch delay slots in the FPU emulator still requires the stack.

We allocate a single page (the vdso) and write all possible signal
trampolines into it.  The stack is moved down by one page and the vdso is
mapped into this space.

If there's no useful work to be done, we don't care about the irqsoff

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.

Christoph Hellwig 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.

David Daney bba9076058 MIPS: Crazy spinlock speed test.
This is just a test program for raw_spinlocks.  The main reason I
wrote it is to validate my spinlock changes that I sent in a previous
patch.

To use it enable CONFIG_DEBUG_FS and CONFIG_SPINLOCK_TEST then at run
time do:

# mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mips/spin_single
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mips/spin_multi

On my 600MHz octeon cn5860 (16 CPUs) I get

		spin_single	spin_multi
base		106885		247941
spinlock_patch	75194		219465

This shows that for uncontended locks the spinlock patch gives 41%
improvement and for contended locks 12% improvement (1/time).

David VomLehn 010c108d7a MIPS: PowerTV: Fix support for timer interrupts with > 64 external IRQs
The MIPS processor is limited to 64 external interrupt sources. Using a
greater number without IRQ sharing requires reading platform-specific
registers. On such platforms, reading the IntCtl register to determine
which interrupt corresponds to a timer interrupt will not work.

On MIPSR2 systems there is a solution - the TI bit in the Cause register,
specifically indicates that a timer interrupt has occured. This patch uses
that bit to detect interrupts for MIPSR2 processors, which may be expected
to work regardless of how the timer interrupt may be routed in the hardware.

Dmitri Vorobiev 6acc7d485c MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line
Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters
hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware.  Therefore,
using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the
command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and
the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless.

This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible
scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is
currently used for x86.  The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line
arguments override the hardcoded ones.

[Ralf: I fixed up all the defconfig files so the stay unaffected by this
change.]
