606576ce81 ftrace: rename FTRACE to FUNCTION_TRACER
Due to confusion between the ftrace infrastructure and the gcc profiling
tracer "ftrace", this patch renames the config options from FTRACE to
FUNCTION_TRACER.  The other two names that are offspring from FTRACE
DYNAMIC_FTRACE and FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD will stay the same.

This patch was generated mostly by script, and partially by hand.

d7161a6534 kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
system call.

First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
exception.

On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
core.  The arch specific stub should always set the
kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping.  This
allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.

c0e9587841 [ARM] Introduce new bitmask based cache type macros
Rather than trying to (inaccurately) decode the cache type from the
registers each time we need to decide what type of cache we have,
use a bitmask initialized early during boot.

Since the setup is a one-off initialization, we can be a little more
clever and take account of the CPU architecture as well.

Note that we continue to achieve the compactness on optimised kernels
by forcing tests to always-false or always-true as appropriate, thereby
allowing the compiler to do build-time code elimination.

90f1e08478 [ARM] Remove cache type printks
The cache type register found in ARMv5 and later CPUs changes format
and meaning depending on the CPU architecture version.  Currently,
this code:
a) doesn't work for everything - Xscale's are identified as
   'unknown 5'.
b) is not able to tell whether the caches are VIVT or VIPT from the
   cache type.
c) prints rubbish on some ARMv6 and ARMv7+ CPUs.

The two solutions to this are:
1. Add yet more code to decode and print the various different register
   formats.
2. Remove the code altogther.

The code only exists to decode and print the cache parameters.
Increasing the complexity of it just for the sake of a few prinks
isn't worth it.

e545a6140b kernel/cpu.c: create a CPU_STARTING cpu_chain notifier
Right now, there is no notifier that is called on a new cpu, before the new
cpu begins processing interrupts/softirqs.
Various kernel function would need that notification, e.g. kvm works around
by calling smp_call_function_single(), rcu polls cpu_online_map.

The patch adds a CPU_STARTING notification. It also adds a helper function
that sends the message to all cpu_chain handlers.

Tested on x86-64.
All other archs are untested. Especially on sparc, I'm not sure if I got
it right.

60296c71f6 [ARM] prevent crashing when too much RAM installed
This patch will truncate and/or ignore memory banks if their kernel
direct mappings would (partially) overlap with the vmalloc area or
the mappings between the vmalloc area and the address space top, to
prevent crashing during early boot if there happens to be more RAM
installed than we are expecting.

Since the start of the vmalloc area is not at a fixed address (but
the vmalloc end address is, via the per-platform VMALLOC_END define),
a default area of 128M is reserved for vmalloc mappings, which can
be shrunk or enlarged by passing an appropriate vmalloc= command line
option as it is done on x86.

On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe000000,
two 512M RAM banks and vmalloc=128M (the default), this patch gives:

	Truncating RAM at 20000000-3fffffff to -35ffffff (vmalloc region overlap).
	Memory: 512MB 352MB = 864MB total

On a board with a 3:1 user:kernel split, VMALLOC_END at 0xfe800000,
two 256M RAM banks and vmalloc=768M, this patch gives:

	Truncating RAM at 00000000-0fffffff to -0e7fffff (vmalloc region overlap).
	Ignoring RAM at 10000000-1fffffff (vmalloc region overlap).

058ddee562 [ARM] Fix SMP booting with non-zero PHYS_OFFSET
The existing code tries to get the pmd for the temporary page table
by doing:

        pgd = pgd_alloc(&init_mm);
        pmd = pmd_offset(pgd, PHYS_OFFSET);

Since we have a two level page table, pmd_offset() is a no-op, so
this just has a casting effect from a pgd to a pmd - the address
argument is unused.  So this can't work.

Normally, we'd do:

	pgd = pgd_offset(&init_mm, PHYS_OFFSET);
	...
	pmd = pmd_offset(pgd, PHYS_OFFSET);

to get the pmd you want.  However, pgd_offset() takes the mm_struct,
not the (unattached) pgd we just allocated.  So, instead use:

        pgd = pgd_alloc(&init_mm);
        pmd = pmd_offset(pgd + pgd_index(PHYS_OFFSET), PHYS_OFFSET);

ef53d9c5e4 kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table.  We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists.  This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time.  Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).

Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.

Solution:

 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
    present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table.  We will have
    two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
    lock for kretporbe object.

 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
    instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
    modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list.  To prevent
    deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
    lock.

 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
    track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
    table.

Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.

27ac792ca0 PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architectures
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.

5cbad0ebf4 kgdb: support for ARCH=arm
This patch adds the ARCH=arm specific a kgdb backend, originally
written by Deepak Saxena <dsaxena@plexity.net> and George Davis
<gdavis@mvista.com>.  Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com>,
Nicolas Pitre, Manish Lachwani, and Jason Wessel have contributed
various fixups here as well.

The KGDB patch makes one change to the core ARM architecture such that
the traps are initialized early for use with the debugger or other
subsystems.

4a0b2b4dbe sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store function
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute
passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.

I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.

I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Runtime tested: x86-32, x86-64
Compiled only: ia64, powerpc
Not compile tested/only grep converted: sh, arm, avr32

fc3a8828b1 driver core: fix a lot of printk usages of bus_id
We have the dev_printk() variants for this kind of thing, use them
instead of directly trying to access the bus_id field of struct device.

This is done in order to remove bus_id entirely.

b8f8c3cf0a nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop
Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:

	scheduler switch to idle task
	enable interrupts

Window starts here

	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
	      	irq_exit() stops the tick

	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)

	return from schedule()
	
	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();

Window ends here

The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.

The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.

Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.

cpu_idle()
{
	preempt_disable();

	while(1) {
		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
		 			          are in the idle loop

		 while (!need_resched())
		       halt();

		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
		 schedule();
		 preempt_disable();
	}
}

In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 

/me grabs a large brown paperbag.
