<title>ARM: 7684/1: errata: Workaround for Cortex-A15 erratum 798181 (TLBI/DSB operations)</title>

<id>93dc68876b608da041fe40ed39424b0fcd5aa2fb</id>
<content type='text'>
On Cortex-A15 (r0p0..r3p2) the TLBI/DSB are not adequately shooting down
all use of the old entries. This patch implements the erratum workaround
which consists of:

1. Dummy TLBIMVAIS and DSB on the CPU doing the TLBI operation.
2. Send IPI to the CPUs that are running the same mm (and ASID) as the
   one being invalidated (or all the online CPUs for global pages).
3. CPU receiving the IPI executes a DMB and CLREX (part of the exception
   return code already).

Jason Cooper reports these build errors:
arch/arm/kernel/built-in.o: In function `iwmmxt_do':
/.../arch/arm/kernel/pj4-cp0.c:36: undefined reference to `iwmmxt_task_release'
/.../arch/arm/kernel/pj4-cp0.c:40: undefined reference to `iwmmxt_task_switch'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

This is caused because the PJ4 code explicitly references the iWMMXt
code, but doesn't require it to be built.  Fix this by ensuring that
iWMMXt is always enabled with PJ4.

Pull ARM SoC bug fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Things are calming down for arm-soc as well.  This set of bug fixes is
  dominated in size by the at91 platform bug fixes.  Some of them were
  meant to go through the framebuffer tree during the merge window, but
  since the framebuffer maintainer could not be reached, I offered to
  take them here.  The other notable at91 change is the addition of
  pinctrl definitions to fix the NAND controller.

  The rest are mostly simple regression fixes:

   - Our removal of VIRT_TO_BUS conflicted with Stephen Rothwell's
     renaming of the Kconfig symbol.  You will get a trivial merge
     conflict here, we still want to remove it.
   - missing bits for clocks on imx and s5pv210
   - missing header inclusions in mmp and shmobile
   - typos in s5pv210 camera and vt8500 clock support code

  and three trivial fixes for pre-3.8 bugs:

   - an old bogus build warning in the joystick driver
   - a misleading Kconfig description
   - a NULL pointer check on davinci"

When building a multiplatform kernel, we could end up with a smaller
number of GPIOs than the one required by the platform the kernel was
running on.

Sort the max GPIO number by descending order so that we always take the
highest number required.

<id>85323a991d40681023822e86ca95f38a75262026</id>

Rob Herring has observed that c81611c4e96f "xen: event channel arrays are
xen_ulong_t and not unsigned long" introduced a compile failure when building
without CONFIG_AEABI:

/tmp/ccJaIZOW.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccJaIZOW.s:831: Error: even register required -- `ldrexd r5,r6,[r4]'

Will Deacon pointed out that this is because OABI does not require even base
registers for 64-bit values. We can avoid this by simply using the existing
atomic64_xchg operation and the same containerof trick as used by the cmpxchg
macros. However since this code is used on memory which is shared with the
hypervisor we require proper atomic instructions and cannot use the generic
atomic64 callbacks (which are based on spinlocks), therefore add a dependency
on !GENERIC_ATOMIC64. Since we already depend on !CPU_V6 there isn't much
downside to this.

While thinking about this we also observed that OABI has different struct
alignment requirements to EABI, which is a problem for hypercall argument
structs which are shared with the hypervisor and which must be in EABI layout.
Since I don't expect people to want to run OABI kernels on Xen depend on
CONFIG_AEABI explicitly too (although it also happens to be enforced by the
!GENERIC_ATOMIC64 requirement too).

Rob Herring has observed that c81611c4e96f "xen: event channel arrays are
xen_ulong_t and not unsigned long" introduced a compile failure when building
without CONFIG_AEABI:

/tmp/ccJaIZOW.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccJaIZOW.s:831: Error: even register required -- `ldrexd r5,r6,[r4]'

Will Deacon pointed out that this is because OABI does not require even base
registers for 64-bit values. We can avoid this by simply using the existing
atomic64_xchg operation and the same containerof trick as used by the cmpxchg
macros. However since this code is used on memory which is shared with the
hypervisor we require proper atomic instructions and cannot use the generic
atomic64 callbacks (which are based on spinlocks), therefore add a dependency
on !GENERIC_ATOMIC64. Since we already depend on !CPU_V6 there isn't much
downside to this.

While thinking about this we also observed that OABI has different struct
alignment requirements to EABI, which is a problem for hypercall argument
structs which are shared with the hypervisor and which must be in EABI layout.
Since I don't expect people to want to run OABI kernels on Xen depend on
CONFIG_AEABI explicitly too (although it also happens to be enforced by the
!GENERIC_ATOMIC64 requirement too).
