Uwe Kleine-König 6fd7ad96d6 Use __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED to initialize bad_irq_desc.lock
SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED is deprecated as lockdep cannot properly work with
locks initialized with it.

This fix is necessary to compile the linux-rt tree for ARM.

Rusty Russell 0de26520c7 cpumask: make irq_set_affinity() take a const struct cpumask
Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

Rusty Russell 98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

Russell King ab4f2ee130 [ARM] fix naming of MODULE_START / MODULE_END
As of 73bdf0a60e, the kernel needs
to know where modules are located in the virtual address space.
On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END.
Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END.
Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr()
can work properly.  Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to
reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the
vmalloc space.

Russell King d2ed5cb80a [ARM] fix VFP+softfloat binaries
2.6.28-rc tightened up the ELF architecture checks on ARM.  For
non-EABI it only allows VFP if the hardware supports it.  However,
the kernel fails to also inspect the soft-float flag, so it
incorrectly rejects binaries using soft-VFP.

The fix is simple: also check that EF_ARM_SOFT_FLOAT isn't set
before rejecting VFP binaries on non-VFP hardware.

Jason Wessel 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.

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.

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.

Manfred Spraul 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.
