667d1b48bc ARM: 7425/1: extable: ensure fixup entries are 4-byte aligned
Fixup entries in the kernel exception tables should be 4-byte aligned
since we return directly to them when handling a faulting instruction in
the kernel.

This patch adds the missing align directives to the fixup entries.

357c9c1f07 ARM: Remove support for ARMv3 ARM610 and ARM710 CPUs
This patch removes support for ARMv3 CPUs, which haven't worked properly
for quite some time (see the FIXME comment in arch/arm/mm/fault.c).  The
only V3 parts left is the cache model for ARMv3, which is needed for some
odd reason by ARM740T CPUs, and being able to build with -march=armv3,
which is required for the RiscPC platform due to its bus structure.

820d41cf0c ARM: cleanups of io includes
Rob Herring has done a sweeping change cleaning up all of the mach/io.h includes,
 moving some of the oft-repeated macros to a common location and removing a bunch of
 boiler plate. This is another step closer to a common zImage for multiple platforms.

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..

6f6f6a7029 ARM: create a common IOMEM definition
Several platforms create IOMEM defines for casting to 'void __iomem *',
and other platforms are incorrectly using __io() macro for the same

specific versions. Rather than try to make linux/io.h and asm/io.h
assembly safe, the assembly version of IOMEM is moved into
asm/assembler.h.

abeb24ae4d ARM: Make global handler and CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER mutually exclusive
Even when CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER is selected, the core code
requires the arch_irq_handler_default macro to be defined as
a fallback.

It turns out nobody is using that particular feature as both PXA
and shmobile have all their machine descriptors populated with
the interrupt handler, leaving unused code (or empty macros) in
their entry-macro.S file just to be able to compile entry-armv.S.

Make CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER exclusive wrt arch_irq_handler_default,
which allows to remove one test from the hot path. Also cleanup both
PXA and shmobile entry-macro.S.

ef4c53687e ARM: 7031/1: entry: Fix Thumb-2 undef handling for multi-CPU kernels
When v6 and >=v7 boards are supported in the same kernel, the
__und_usr code currently makes a build-time assumption that Thumb-2
instructions occurring in userspace don't need to be supported.
Strictly speaking this is incorrect.

This patch fixes the above case by doing a run-time check on the
CPU architecture in these cases.  This only affects kernels which
support v6 and >=v7 CPUs together: plain v6 and plain v7 kernels
are unaffected.

bc089602d2 ARM: entry: instrument usr exception handlers with irqsoff tracing
As we no longer re-enable interrupts in these exception handlers, add
the irqsoff tracing calls to them so that the kernel tracks the state
more accurately.

Note that these calls are conditional on IRQSOFF_TRACER:

  kernel ----------> user ---------> kernel
          ^ irqs enabled   ^ irqs disabled

No kernel code can run on the local CPU until we've re-entered the
kernel through one of the exception handlers - and userspace can not
take any locks etc.  So, the kernel doesn't care about the IRQ mask
state while userspace is running unless we're doing IRQ off latency
tracing.  So, we can (and do) avoid the overhead of updating the IRQ
mask state on every kernel->user and user->kernel transition.

9fc2552a68 ARM: 6952/1: fix lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"
This patch fixes the lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"[1].

After entering __irq_usr, arm core will disable interrupt automatically,
but __irq_usr does not annotate the irq disable, so lockdep may complain
the warning if it has chance to check this in irq handler.

This patch adds trace_hardirqs_off in __irq_usr before entering irq_handler
to handle the irq, also calls ret_to_user_from_irq to avoid calling
disable_irq again.

This is also a fix for irq off tracer.

Per subarch interrupt handler macros V3.

This patch breaks out code from the irq_handler macro
into arch_irq_handler and arch_irq_handler_default.

The macros are put in the header file "entry-macro-multi.S"

The arch_irq_handler_default macro is designed to be

is suitable for per-subarch use.

521086412e ARM: 6532/1: Allow machine to specify it's own IRQ handlers at run-time
Normally different ARM platform has different way to decode the IRQ
hardware status and demultiplex to the corresponding IRQ handler.
This is highly optimized by macro irq_handler in entry-armv.S, and
each machine defines their own macro to decode the IRQ number.
However, this prevents multiple machine classes to be built into a
single kernel.

By allowing each machine to specify thier own handler, and making
function pointer 'handle_arch_irq' to point to it at run time, this
can be solved. And introduce CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER to allow both
solutions to work.

Comparing with the highly optimized macro of irq_handler, the new
function must be written with care not to lose too much performance.
And the IPI stuff on SMP is expected to move to the provided arch
IRQ handler as well.

The assembly code to invoke handle_arch_irq is optimized by Russell
King.

ed3768a8d9 ARM: 6516/1: Allow SMP_ON_UP to work with Thumb-2 kernels.
* __fixup_smp_on_up has been modified with support for the
    THUMB2_KERNEL case.  For THUMB2_KERNEL only, fixups are split
    into halfwords in case of misalignment, since we can't rely on
    unaligned accesses working before turning the MMU on.

    No attempt is made to optimise the aligned case, since the
    number of fixups is typically small, and it seems best to keep
    the code as simple as possible.

  * Add a rotate in the fixup_smp code in order to support
    CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, as suggested by Nicolas Pitre.

  * Add an assembly-time sanity-check to ALT_UP() to ensure that
    the content really is the right size (4 bytes).

    (No check is done for ALT_SMP().  Possibly, this could be fixed
    by splitting the two uses ot ALT_SMP() (ALT_SMP...SMP_UP versus
    ALT_SMP...SMP_UP_B) into two macros.  In the first case,
    ALT_SMP needs to expand to >= 4 bytes, not == 4.)

  * smp_mpidr.h (which implements ALT_SMP()/ALT_UP() manually due
    to macro limitations) has not been modified: the affected
    instruction (mov) has no 16-bit encoding, so the correct
    instruction size is satisfied in this case.

  * A "mode" parameter has been added to smp_dmb:

    smp_dmb arm @ assumes 4-byte instructions (for ARM code, e.g. kuser)
    smp_dmb     @ uses W() to ensure 4-byte instructions for ALT_SMP()

    This avoids assembly failures due to use of W() inside smp_dmb,
    when assembling pure-ARM code in the vectors page.

    There might be a better way to achieve this.

  * Kconfig: make SMP_ON_UP depend on
    (!THUMB2_KERNEL || !BIG_ENDIAN) i.e., THUMB2_KERNEL is now
    supported, but only if !BIG_ENDIAN (The fixup code for Thumb-2
    currently assumes little-endian order.)

Tested using a single generic realview kernel on:
	ARM RealView PB-A8 (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL={n,y})
	ARM RealView PBX-A9 (SMP)

7e20269647 ARM: hw_breakpoint: disable preemption during debug exception handling
On ARM, debug exceptions occur in the form of data or prefetch aborts.
One difference is that debug exceptions require access to per-cpu banked
registers and data structures which are not saved in the low-level exception
code. For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, there is an unlikely scenario
that the debug handler ends up running on a different CPU from the one
that originally signalled the event, resulting in random data being read
from the wrong registers.

This patch adds a debug_entry macro to the low-level exception handling
code which checks whether the taken exception is a debug exception. If
it is, the preempt count for the faulting process is incremented. After
the debug handler has finished, the count is decremented.

247055aa21 ARM: 6384/1: Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUs
This patch removes the domain switching functionality via the set_fs and
__switch_to functions on cores that have a TLS register.

Currently, the ioremap and vmalloc areas share the same level 1 page
tables and therefore have the same domain (DOMAIN_KERNEL). When the
kernel domain is modified from Client to Manager (via the __set_fs or in
the __switch_to function), the XN (eXecute Never) bit is overridden and
newer CPUs can speculatively prefetch the ioremap'ed memory.

Linux performs the kernel domain switching to allow user-specific
functions (copy_to/from_user, get/put_user etc.) to access kernel
memory. In order for these functions to work with the kernel domain set
to Client, the patch modifies the LDRT/STRT and related instructions to
the LDR/STR ones.

The user pages access rights are also modified for kernel read-only
access rather than read/write so that the copy-on-write mechanism still
works. CPU_USE_DOMAINS gets disabled only if the hardware has a TLS register
(CPU_32v6K is defined) since writing the TLS value to the high vectors page
isn't possible.

The user addresses passed to the kernel are checked by the access_ok()
function so that they do not point to the kernel space.

f00ec48fad ARM: Allow SMP kernels to boot on UP systems
UP systems do not implement all the instructions that SMP systems have,
so in order to boot a SMP kernel on a UP system, we need to rewrite
parts of the kernel.

Do this using an 'alternatives' scheme, where the kernel code and data
is modified prior to initialization to replace the SMP instructions,
thereby rendering the problematical code ineffectual.  We use the linker
to generate a list of 32-bit word locations and their replacement values,
and run through these replacements when we detect a UP system.

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.

df0698be14 ARM: stack protector: change the canary value per task
A new random value for the canary is stored in the task struct whenever
a new task is forked.  This is meant to allow for different canary values
per task.  On ARM, GCC expects the canary value to be found in a global
variable called __stack_chk_guard.  So this variable has to be updated
with the value stored in the task struct whenever a task switch occurs.

Because the variable GCC expects is global, this cannot work on SMP
unfortunately.  So, on SMP, the same initial canary value is kept
throughout, making this feature a bit less effective although it is still
useful.

One way to overcome this GCC limitation would be to locate the
__stack_chk_guard variable into a memory page of its own for each CPU,
and then use TLB locking to have each CPU see its own page at the same
virtual address for each of them.

Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian
(byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support:

- setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and
  user threads
- big-endian page table walking
- REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault
  processing as they are still little-endian format
- Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed
  to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to
  little-endian

bac4e960b5 [ARM] barriers: improve xchg, bitops and atomic SMP barriers
Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking:

- cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on
  architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory
  read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent
  ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM.

- test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers.

So put these barriers in.  Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub
operations which do not require barriers.

d30a0c8bf9 ARM kprobes: don't let a single-stepped stmdb corrupt the exception stack
If kprobes installs a breakpoint on a "stmdb sp!, {...}" instruction,
and then single-step it by simulation from the exception context, it will
corrupt the saved regs on the stack from the previous context.

To avoid this, let's add an optional parameter to the svc_entry macro
allowing for a hole to be created on the stack before saving the
interrupted context, and use it in the undef_svc handler when kprobes
is enabled.

b49c0f24cf [ARM] 4659/1: remove possibilities for spurious false negative with __kuser_cmpxchg
The ARM __kuser_cmpxchg routine is meant to implement an atomic cmpxchg
in user space.  It however can produce spurious false negative if a
processor exception occurs in the middle of the operation.  Normally
this is not a problem since cmpxchg is typically called in a loop until
it succeeds to implement an atomic increment for example.

Some use cases which don't involve a loop require that the operation be
100% reliable though.  This patch changes the implementation so to
reattempt the operation after an exception has occurred in the critical
section rather than abort it.

Here's a simple program to test the fix (don't use CONFIG_NO_HZ in your
kernel as this depends on a sufficiently high interrupt rate):

	#include <stdio.h>

	typedef int (__kernel_cmpxchg_t)(int oldval, int newval, int *ptr);
	#define __kernel_cmpxchg (*(__kernel_cmpxchg_t *)0xffff0fc0)

	int main()
	{
		int i, x = 0;
		for (i = 0; i < 100000000; i++) {
			int v = x;
			if (__kernel_cmpxchg(v, v+1, &x))
				printf("failed at %d: %d vs %d\n", i, v, x);
		}
		printf("done with %d vs %d\n", i, x);
		return 0;
	}

get_irqnr_preamble allows machines to take some action before entering the
get_irqnr_and_base loop.  On iop we enable cp6 access.

arch_ret_to_user is added to the userspace return path to allow individual
architectures to take actions, like disabling coprocessor access, before
the final return to userspace.

Per Nicolas Pitre's note, there is no need to cp_wait on the return to user
as the latency to return is sufficient.

bad_mode() currently prints the mode which caused the exception, and
then causes an oops dump to be printed which again displays 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

afe4b25e7d [ARM] 3881/4: xscale: clean up cp0/cp1 handling
XScale cores either have a DSP coprocessor (which contains a single
40 bit accumulator register), or an iWMMXt coprocessor (which contains
eight 64 bit registers.)

Because of the small amount of state in the DSP coprocessor, access to
the DSP coprocessor (CP0) is always enabled, and DSP context switching
is done unconditionally on every task switch.  Access to the iWMMXt
coprocessor (CP0/CP1) is enabled only when an iWMMXt instruction is
first issued, and iWMMXt context switching is done lazily.

CONFIG_IWMMXT is supposed to mean 'the cpu we will be running on will
have iWMMXt support', but boards are supposed to select this config
symbol by hand, and at least one pxa27x board doesn't get this right,
so on that board, proc-xscale.S will incorrectly assume that we have a
DSP coprocessor, enable CP0 on boot, and we will then only save the
first iWMMXt register (wR0) on context switches, which is Bad.

This patch redefines CONFIG_IWMMXT as 'the cpu we will be running on
might have iWMMXt support, and we will enable iWMMXt context switching
if it does.'  This means that with this patch, running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=n
kernel on an iWMMXt-capable CPU will no longer potentially corrupt iWMMXt
state over context switches, and running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=y kernel on a
non-iWMMXt capable CPU will still do DSP context save/restore.

These changes should make iWMMXt work on PXA3xx, and as a side effect,
enable proper acc0 save/restore on non-iWMMXt capable xsc3 cores such
as IOP13xx and IXP23xx (which will not have CONFIG_CPU_XSCALE defined),
as well as setting and using HWCAP_IWMMXT properly.

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

6896eec029 [ARM] 3420/1: Missing clobber in example code
Patch from Paul Brook

The example code in the source documentation for __kernel_dmb
clobbers r0 but doesn't list it the asm clobber list.

5964eae835 [ARM] 3310/1: add a comment about the possible __kuser_cmpxchg transient false
negative

Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The pre ARMv5 implementation can be aborted if an exception occurs in
the middle of it.  Because of that, the ARMv6 implementation doesn't
re-attempt the operation on a failed strex either.  Let's make this
transient nature of such a false positive more explicit in the
definition.

49bca4c281 [ARM] 3309/1: disable the pre-ARMv5 NPTL kernel helper in the non MMU case
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The cmpxchg emulation on pre-ARMv5 relies on user code executed from a
kernel address.  If the operation cannot complete atomically, it is
aborted from the usr_entry macro by clearing the Z flag.  This clearing
of the Z flag is done whenever the user pc is above TASK_SIZE.

However this "pc >= TASK_SIZE" test cannot work in the non MMU case.
Worse: the current code will corrupt the Z flag on every entry to the
kernel.

Let's disable it in the non MMU case for now.  Using NPTL on non MMU
targets needs to be worked out anyway.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre

This is kernel provided user space code.

Since a syscall is used, it has to be updated to work with EABI.

2dede2d8e9 [ARM] 3102/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned after a CPU exception
Patch from Nicolas Pitre

The ARM EABI says that the stack pointer has to be 64-bit aligned for
reasons already mentioned in patch #3101 when calling C functions.

We therefore must verify and adjust sp accordingly when taking an
exception from kernel mode since sp might not necessarily be 64-bit
aligned if the exception occurs in the middle of a kernel function.

If the exception occurs while in user mode then no sp fixup is needed as
long as sizeof(struct pt_regs) as well as any additional syscall data
stack space remain multiples of 8.
