This patch implements a workaround for PL310 erratum 769419. On
revisions of the PL310 prior to r3p2, the Store Buffer does not
automatically drain. This can cause normal, non-cacheable writes to be
retained when the memory system is idle, leading to suboptimal I/O
performance for drivers using coherent DMA.
This patch adds an optional wmb() call to the cpu_idle loop. On systems
with an outer cache, this causes an explicit flush of the store buffer.

We only need to set the system up for a soft-restart if we're going to
be doing a soft-restart. Provide a new function (soft_restart()) which
does the setup and final call for this, and make platforms use it.
Eliminate the call to setup_restart() from the default handler.
This means that platforms arch_reset() function is no longer called with
the page tables prepared for a soft-restart, and caches will still be
enabled.

Many of the core ARM kernel files are not modules, but just
including module.h for exporting symbols. Now these files can
use the lighter footprint export.h for this role.
There are probably lots more, but ARM files of mach-* and plat-*

The kernel makes the high vector page visible to user space. This page
contains (amongst others) small code segments that can be executed in
user space. Make this page visible through ptrace and /proc/<pid>/mem
in order to let gdb perform code parsing needed for proper unwinding.
For example, the ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK handler actually has a stack
frame -- it returns to a PC value stored on the user's stack. To
unwind after a "sleep" system call was interrupted twice, GDB would
have to recognize this situation and understand that stack frame
layout -- which it currently cannot do.
We could fix this by hard-coding addresses in the vector page range into
GDB, but that isn't really portable as not all of those addresses are
guaranteed to remain stable across kernel releases. And having the gdb
process make an exception for this page and get content from its own
address space for it looks strange, and it is not future proof either.
Being located above PAGE_OFFSET, this vma cannot be deleted by
user space code.

x86 calls machine_shutdown() from the various machine_*() calls which
take the machine down ready for halting, restarting, etc, and uses
this to bring the system safely to a point where those actions can be
performed. Such actions are stopping the secondary CPUs.
So, change the ARM implementation of these to reflect what x86 does.
This solves kexec problems on ARM SMP platforms, where the secondary
CPUs were left running across the kexec call.

All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts
and then flush caches. Rather than have every processors proc_fin()
implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the
cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having
caches still enabled.)
This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache
types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support
code.

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

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.

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 ...

Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.
Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.
To make this work, this patch also does the following:
(1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.
(2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
core dumping code.
(3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This
is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch
code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
the core kernel.
(4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
needed) and FRV.
This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

to output partial lines; always output a complete line.
Re-combine the "Control" and "Table + DAC" lines after nommu

Lots of places in arch/arm were needlessly including linux/ptrace.h,
resumably because we used to pass a struct pt_regs to interrupt
handlers. Now that we don't, all these ptrace.h includes are
redundant.

bad_mode() currently prints the mode which caused the exception, and
then causes an oops dump to be printed which again displays this
information (since the CPSR in the struct pt_regs is correct.) 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
static.

Remove ARM local cache of 4 struct thread_info.
Can cause oops under certain circumstances.
Russell indicated the original optimization was
required on older kernels to avoid thread starvation
on memory fragmentation, but may no longer be
required. I've updated the patch to 19rc4 and
ensured no <config.h> dain-bramage slipped in this
time (sorry about that).
Original description follows:
I was given some test results which pointed to an
Oops in alloc_thread_info (happened 2x), and after
looking at the code, I see that ARM has its own
local cache of 4 struct thread_info. There wasn't
any clear (to me) synchronization between the
alloc_thread_info and the free_thread_info.
I looked over the other arch, and they all simply
allocate them on an as needed basis, so I simplified
the ARM to do the same, based on the other arch
(e.g. PPC) and the folks doing the testing have
indicated that this fixed the oops.

All the current CP15 access codes in ARM arch can be categorized and
conditioned by the defines as follows:
Related operation Safe condition
a. any CP15 access !CPU_CP15
b. alignment trap CPU_CP15_MMU
c. D-cache(C-bit) CPU_CP15
d. I-cache CPU_CP15 && !( CPU_ARM610 || CPU_ARM710 ||
CPU_ARM720 || CPU_ARM740 ||
CPU_XSCALE || CPU_XSC3 )
e. alternate vector CPU_CP15 && !CPU_ARM740
f. TTB CPU_CP15_MMU
g. Domain CPU_CP15_MMU
h. FSR/FAR CPU_CP15_MMU
For example, alternate vector is supported if and only if
"CPU_CP15 && !CPU_ARM740" is satisfied.

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
hook into to be informed of events which affect the VFP subsystem
(eg, creation and destruction of threads, switches between threads.)

Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid. Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.
* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.
- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.
- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.
- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.
Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.
* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
(IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.
- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
to the idle thread.
- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.
Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
the idle task.
POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine
specific hooks deep into the reboot logic, that modules
have no business messing with. Usually code should be calling

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
