m68k: merge m68k and m68knommu arch directories

2011-03-25T04:05:13+00:00

There is a lot of common code that could be shared between the m68k
and m68knommu arch branches. It makes sense to merge the two branches
into a single directory structure so that we can more easily share
that common code.

This is a brute force merge, based on a script from Stephen King
, which was originally written by Arnd Bergmann
.

> #endif

On top of this file merge I have done a simplistic merge of m68k and
m68knommu Kconfig, which primarily attempts to keep existing options and
menus in place. Other than a handful of options being moved it produces
identical .config outputs on m68k and m68knommu targets I tested it on.

With this in place there is now quite a bit of scope for merge cleanups
in future patches.

m68k: Missing syscall_trace() on sigreturn

2011-01-07T13:01:35+00:00

If we leave sigreturn via ret_from_signal, we end up with syscall
trace only on entry, leading to very unhappy strace, among other
things.  Note that this means different behaviours for signals
delivered while we were in pagefault and for ones delivered while
we were in interrupt...

m68k: Simplify the singlestepping handling in signals

2011-01-07T13:01:34+00:00

Instead of checking the return value of do_signal() we can just do
the work (raise SIGTRAP and clear SR.T1) directly in handle_signal(),
when setting the sigframe up.  Simplifies the assembler glue and is
closer to the way we do it on other targets.

Note that do_delayed_trace does *not* disappear; it's still needed
to deal with single-stepping through syscall, since 68040 doesn't
raise the trace exception at all if the trap exception is pending.
We hit it after returning from sys_...() if TIF_DELAYED_TRACE is
set; all that has changed is that we don't reuse it for "single-step
into the handler" codepath.

As the result, do_signal() doesn't need to return anything anymore.

Add generic sys_old_mmap()

2010-03-12T23:52:32+00:00

Add a generic implementation of the old mmap() syscall, which expects its
argument in a memory block and switch all architectures over to use it.

m68k: Add NPTL support

2010-02-27T17:31:19+00:00

This patch adds several syscalls, that provide necessary
functionality to support NPTL on m68k/ColdFire.
The syscalls are get_thread_area, set_thread_area, atomic_cmpxchg_32 and
atomic_barrier.
The cmpxchg syscall is required for ColdFire as it doesn't support 'cas'
instruction.

Also a ptrace call PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA is added to allow debugger to
inspect the TLS storage.

m68k: ptrace fixes

2009-12-04T20:22:35+00:00

This fixes the following issues in ptrace:

- when single stepping into the signal handler stop at the first insn of
  the handler
- handle non-zero stkadj when accessing pc and sr in ptregs
- correctly handle PT_SR in PTRACE_POKEUSR
- report -EIO when trying to read unknown offset in PTRACE_PEEKUSR

Additionally, the handling of the special case that PT_SR accesses a 16
bit word instead of a 32 bit word has been moved into get_reg/put_reg.

perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events

2009-09-21T12:28:04+00:00

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )
