This patch provides an enhancement to kexec/kdump. It implements the
following features:
- Backup/restore memory used by the original kernel before/after
kexec.
- Save/restore CPU state before/after kexec.
The features of this patch can be used as a general method to call program in
physical mode (paging turning off). This can be used to call BIOS code under
Linux.
kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches and
the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL:
source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2
patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-patches_git_kh10.tar.bz2
binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10
Usage example of calling some physical mode code and return:
1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected:
CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y
2. Build patched kexec-tool or download the pre-built one.
3. Build some physical mode executable named such as "phy_mode"
4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1.
5. Load physical mode executable with /sbin/kexec. The shell command
line can be as follow:
/sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context --args-none phy_mode
6. Call physical mode executable with following shell command line:
/sbin/kexec -e
Implementation point:
To support jumping without reserving memory. One shadow backup page (source
page) is allocated for each page used by kexeced code image (destination
page). When do kexec_load, the image of kexeced code is loaded into source
pages, and before executing, the destination pages and the source pages are
swapped, so the contents of destination pages are backupped. Before jumping
to the kexeced code image and after jumping back to the original kernel, the
destination pages and the source pages are swapped too.
C ABI (calling convention) is used as communication protocol between
kernel and called code.
A flag named KEXEC_PRESERVE_CONTEXT for sys_kexec_load is added to
indicate that the loaded kernel image is used for jumping back.
Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value. This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag. I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation. I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.
The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags. I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code. To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags. Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

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.

The USBF function on sh7722 is currently not working with the m66592_udc
driver. The driver is using platform_get_resource_byname() so my commit
a0d29798e568116aa6c32aef7bab2d9e620c88ad broke sh7722 support.
The long term fix is to replace platform_get_resource_byname() in the
driver with platform_get_resource(), but this helps until that happens.

There are a few different types of debug trap exceptions, though now
that they are all going through a special jump table, the restorer needs
to be unified as well.
Presently this is falling through the ret_from_fork path, which more or
less does the right thing on SH-3/4 whilst being completely unsuitable on
MMU-less targets.
Ultimately what we want here is a branch through the platform's
restore_all directly, without worrying about the retval being clobbered.
We can accomplish that through a branch to __restore_all directly, so
switch it so we come back from the jump table and branch to the restorer.
This fixes up a recursion in the nommu WARN_ON() path, as well as some
other userspace nastiness where said recursion caused serious stack
corruption.

Currently is_valid_bugaddr() is true for anything >= PAGE_OFFSET, which
happens to be 0 on nommu configurations. Make this a bit smarter by just

When using initramfs on systems that don't explicitly clear LOADER_TYPE,
unpack_to_rootfs() tramples tramples the range with the defaults taken
out of .empty_zero_page. This causes kernels with valid initramfs images
to bail out with crc or gzip magic mismatch errors after the second
unpack takes place on certain platform configurations.
