We have to make sure to use base-pagesize TLB entries even during the
early transition period where we need TLB miss handling but don't have
the kernel page tables setup yet for the linear region.
Also, it is necessary therefore to not use the 4MB TSB for these
translations, and instead use the normal kernel TSB. This allows us
to also get rid of the 4MB tsb for debug builds which shrinks the
kernel a little bit.

Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for sparc64
Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag.
Race :
parent process executing :
sys_ptrace()
(lock_kernel())
(ptrace_get_task_struct(pid))
arch_ptrace()
ptrace_detach()
ptrace_disable(child);
clear_singlestep(child);
clear_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_SINGLESTEP);
(which clears the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag atomically from a different
process)
(put_task_struct(child))
(unlock_kernel())
And at the same time, in the child process :
sys_execve()
do_execve()
search_binary_handler()
load_elf_binary()
flush_old_exec()
flush_thread()
doing a non-atomic thread flag update

We mistakedly modify 'bus' in the innermost loop. What
should happen is that at each register index iteration,
we start with the same 'bus'.
So preserve it's value at the top level, and use a loop
local variable 'dbus' for iteration.
This bug causes registers other than the first to be
decoded improperly.

When the PCI controller OBP node lacks an interrupt-map

This reverts some bogosity from the dynamic command-line
changes made on sparc32 and sparc64.
Drivers such as drivers/sbus/char/openprom.c reference
saved_command_line, and can be modular.
The boot_command_line is __initdata, yet the dynamic command-line
changes add modular exports of that symbol, obviously wrong.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

I am slowly moving to a model where all process killing is struct pid based
instead of pid_t based. The sunos compatibility code is one of the last users
of the old pid_t based kill_pg in the kernel. By being complete I allow for
the future removal of kill_pg from the kernel, which will ensure I don't miss
something.

I noticed that almost all architectures implemented exactly the same
sys32_sysinfo... except parisc, where a bug was to be found in handling of
the uptime. So let's remove a whole whack of code for fun and profit.
Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it
would be the best tested.
This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but
instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

The line discipline numbers N_* are currently defined for each architecture
individually, but (except for a seeming mistake) identically, in
asm/termios.h. There is no obvious reason why these numbers should be
architecture specific, nor any apparent relationship with the termios
structure. The total number of these, NR_LDISCS, is defined in linux/tty.h
anyway. So I propose the following patch which moves the definitions of
the individual line disciplines to linux/tty.h too.
Three of these numbers (N_MASC, N_PROFIBUS_FDL, and N_SMSBLOCK) are unused
in the current kernel, but the patch still keeps the complete set in case
there are plans to use them yet.

As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA
channel management. Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to
provide memory below 16M. So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is
set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA. Undo the modifications to
mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set
theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig.
Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be
switched off. It can only be switched off if we know that all devices
supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of
memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and
IA64/Altix).
In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish
a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only
capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an
alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory
(like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that
call. In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified
to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

nr_free_pages is now a simple access to a global variable. Make it a macro
instead of a function.
The nr_free_pages now requires vmstat.h to be included. There is one
occurrence in power management where we need to add the include. Directly
refrer to global_page_state() there to clarify why the #include was added.

This is kind of hokey, we could use the hardware provided facilities
much better.
MSIs are assosciated with MSI Queues. MSI Queues generate interrupts
when any MSI assosciated with it is signalled. This suggests a
two-tiered IRQ dispatch scheme:
MSI Queue interrupt --> queue interrupt handler
MSI dispatch --> driver interrupt handler
But we just get one-level under Linux currently. What I'd like to do
is possibly stick the IRQ actions into a per-MSI-Queue data structure,
and dispatch them form there, but the generic IRQ layer doesn't
provide a way to do that right now.
So, the current kludge is to "ACK" the interrupt by processing the
MSI Queue data structures and ACK'ing them, then we run the actual
handler like normal.
We are wasting a lot of useful information, for example the MSI data
and address are provided with ever MSI, as well as a system tick if
available. If we could pass this into the IRQ handler it could help
with certain things, in particular for PCI-Express error messages.
The MSI entries on sparc64 also tell you exactly which bus/device/fn
sent the MSI, which would be great for error handling when no
registered IRQ handler can service the interrupt.
We override the disable/enable IRQ chip methods in sun4v_msi, so we
have to call {mask,unmask}_msi_irq() directly from there. This is
another ugly wart.

Mirror the logic in the sun4u handler, we have to update
both registers even when we branch out to window fault
fixup handling.
The way it works is that if we are in etrap processing a
fault already, g4/g5 holds the original fault information.
If we take a window spill fault while doing etrap, then
we put the window spill fault info into g4/g5 and this is
what the top-level fault handler ends up processing first.
Then we retry the originally faulting instruction, and
process the original fault at that time.
This is all necessary because of how constrained the trap
registers are in these code paths. These cases trigger
very rarely, so even if there is some performance implication
it's doesn't happen very often. In fact the rarity is why
it took so long to trigger and find this particular bug.

Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'
This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.
Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.
This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.
Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting
regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to
regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice
Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just
leave regs->tnpc as-is. This covers cases like 'jmpl' which
branch to absolute values.
- To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction
cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including
cases like add_aggr_kprobe()
- prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match
the type of the value it is saving
- jprobes were totally broken:
= jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler,
or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong
register window than the one from the original probe state.
So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right
before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap.
= There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved
at %sp at jprobe trigger time. Those registers cannot be
modified by the jprobe handler. Also, this code was saving
and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes. Depending
upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame
pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window
stored on the stack, without the argument save area.
So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient.
= Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused.
Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame
unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is
superfluous.

This facility provides three entry points:
ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long
ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32
ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64
These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
int do_something(long q)
{
...;
y = ilog2(x)
...;
}
Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
unsigned n = ilog2(27);
When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.
When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
