The index for a device interrupt in the PIC interrupt routing table
changes for different chips in the XLP family. Avoid using the fixed
entries and derive the index value from the SoC device header.
Add workarounds for some devices which do not report the IRT index

Remove the irq save/restore from write_c0_eimr(), as it is always called
with interrupts off.
This allows us to remove workaround in write_c0_eimr() to fix up the
flags used by local_irq_save. This fixup worked on XLR, but will break
when 32-bit support is added to r2 cpus like XLP.

Default kernel stack size on parisc is 16k. During tests we found that the
kernel stack can easily grow beyond 13k, which leaves 3k left for irq
processing.
This patch adds the possibility to activate an additional stack of 16k per CPU
which is being used during irq processing. This implementation does not yet
uses this irq stack for the irq bh handler.
The assembler code for call_on_stack was heavily cleaned up by John
David Anglin.

Add the CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW config option to enable checks to
detect kernel stack overflows.
Stack overflows can not be detected reliable since we do not want to
introduce too much overhead.
Instead, during irq processing in do_cpu_irq_mask() we check kernel
stack usage of the interrupted kernel process. Kernel threads can be
easily detected by checking the value of space register 7 (sr7) which
is zero when running inside the kernel.
Since THREAD_SIZE is 16k and PAGE_SIZE is 4k, reduce the alignment of
the init thread to the lower value (PAGE_SIZE) in the kernel
vmlinux.ld.S linker script.

Helge and I have found that we have a kernel stack overflow problem
which causes a variety of random failures.
Currently, we re-enable interrupts when returning from an external
interrupt incase we need to schedule or delivery
signals. As a result, a potentially unlimited number of interrupts
can occur while we are running on the kernel
stack. It is very limited in space (currently, 16k). This change
defers enabling interrupts until we have
actually decided to schedule or delivery signals. This only occurs
when we about to return to userspace. This
limits the number of interrupts on the kernel stack to one. In other
cases, interrupts remain disabled until the
final return from interrupt (rfi).

These continue the multiplatform support for exynos, adding support
for building most of the essential drivers (clocksource, clk, irqchip)
when combined with other platforms. As a result, it should become
really easy to add full multiplatform exynos support in 3.11, although
we don't yet enable it for 3.10.
The changes were not included in the earlier multiplatform series
in order to avoid clashes with the other Exynos updates.
This also includes work from Tomasz Figa to fix the pwm clocksource
code on Exynos, which is not strictly required for multiplatform,
but related to the other patches in this set and needed as a bug
fix for at least one board.

It would be good to get feedback on the location of the "mbus"

was moved to drivers/bus/. We expect other similar drivers to

Pull ARM SoC platform updates (part 3) from Arnd Bergmann:
"This is the third and smallest of the SoC specific updates. Changes
include:
- SMP support for the Xilinx zynq platform
- Smaller imx changes
- LPAE support for mvebu
- Moving the orion5x, kirkwood, dove and mvebu platforms to a common
"mbus" driver for their internal devices.
It would be good to get feedback on the location of the "mbus" driver.
Since this is used on multiple platforms may potentially get shared
with other architectures (powerpc and arm64), it was moved to
drivers/bus/. We expect other similar drivers to get moved to the
same place in order to avoid creating more top-level directories under
drivers/ or cluttering up the messy drivers/misc/ even more."

These patches are all for Renesas shmobile, and depend on the earlier
pinctrl updates. Remarkably, this adds support for three new SoCs:
r8a73a4, r8a73a4 and r8a7778. The bulk of the code added for these is
for pinctrl (using the new subsystem) and for clocks (not yet using the
common clock subsystem). The latter will have to get converted in one
of the upcoming releases, but shmobile is not ready for that yet.
The series also contains Renesas shmobile board changes, adding one
board file for each of the three new SoCs. These boards are using a
mix of classic and device-tree based probing, as there is still a lot of
infrastructure in shmobile that has not been converted to DT yet. Once
those are resolved to the degree that no board specific setup code is
needed, they can get folded into the respective SoC setup files.

rwsem: make the waiter type an enumeration rather than a bitmask
modify __down_write[_nested] and __down_write_trylock to grab the write
lock whenever the active count is 0, even if there are queued waiters
(they must be writers pending wakeup, since the active count is 0).
Note that this is an optimization only; architectures without this
optimization will still work fine:
- __down_write() would take the slow path which would take the wait_lock
and then try stealing the lock (as in the spinlocked rwsem implementation)
- __down_write_trylock() would fail, but callers must be ready to deal
with that - since there are some writers pending wakeup, they could
have raced with us and obtained the lock before we steal it.

flush_dcache_page( ) is MM hook to ensure that a page has consistent
views between kernel and userspace. Thus it is called when
* kernel writes to a page which at some later point could get mapped to
userspace (so kernel mapping needs to be flushed-n-inv)
* kernel is about to read from a page with possible userspace mappings
(so userspace mappings needs to be made coherent with kernel ones)
However for Non aliasing VIPT dcache, any userspace mapping will always
be congruent to kernel mapping. Thus d-cache need need not be flushed at
all (or delayed indefinitely).
The only reason it does need to be flushed is when mapping code pages.
Since icache doesn't snoop dcache, those dirty dcache lines need to be
written back to memory and icache line invalidated so that icache lines
fetch will get the right data.
Decent gains on LMBench fork/exec/sh and File I/O micro-benchmarks.

Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
This change continues the theme from prev commit - this time icache
handling for kernel's own code modification (vmalloc: loadable modules,
breakpoints for kprobes/kgdb...)
flush_icache_range() calls the CDU icache helper with vaddr to enable
exact line invalidate.
For a true kernel-virtual mapping, the vaddr is actually virtual hence
valid as index into cache. For kprobes breakpoint however, the vaddr arg
is actually paddr - since that's how normal kernel is mapped in ARC
memory map. This implies that CDU will use the same addr for
indexing as for tag match - which is fine since kernel code would only
have that "implicit" mapping and none other.
This should speed up module loading significantly - specially on default
ARC700 icache configurations (32k) which alias.
Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made
coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page().
However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr
(index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a
line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus
the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented
efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform
the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at
the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of
visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless).
Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in
update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics.
With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done.

munmap ends up calling tlb_flush() which for ARC was flushing the entire
TLB unconditionally (by moving the MMU to a new ASID)
do_munmap
unmap_region
unmap_vmas
unmap_single_vma
unmap_page_range
tlb_start_vma
zap_pud_range
tlb_end_vma()
tlb_finish_mmu
tlb_flush() ---> unconditional flush_tlb_mm()
So even a single page munmap, a frequent operation when uClibc dynamic
linker (ldso) is loading the dependent shared libraries, would move the
the ASID multiple times - needlessly invalidating the pre-faulted TLB
entries (and increasing the rate of ASID wraparound + full TLB flush).
This is now optimised to only be called if tlb->full_mm (which means
for exit/execve) cases only. And for those cases, flush_tlb_mm() is
already optimised to be a no-op for mm->mm_users == 0.
So essentially there are no mmore full mm flushes - except for fork which
anyhow needs it for properly COW'ing parent address space.
munmap now needs to do TLB range flush, which is implemented with
tlb_end_vma()
Results
-------
1. ASID now consistenly moves by 4 during a simple ls (as opposed to 5 or
7 before).
2. LMBench microbenchmark also shows improvements

This adds support for an ARC Virtual Platform. This platform is based on the
System C standard promoted by the OSCI (Open System C Initiative) and uses
nSIM to simulate the ARC CPU core itself.
Users can build a virtual SoC by combining System C models of peripherals
and CPU cores.
