sparc64: Fix register corruption in top-most kernel stack frame during boot.

2014-10-24T16:52:49+00:00

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we
eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using
UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus.

The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned:

[   54.451346] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004
[   54.451346]

[   55.050713] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004

Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with
an older compiler fixes the boot.

Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by
gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering.

With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching
causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted.  Perhaps
we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to
cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get
back from the TLB miss trap.

Let's plug this up by doing two things:

1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into
   the firmware.  Just use the kernel's stack.

2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()"
   to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's
   deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

Functions that are only used in kernel/ - add prototypes in kernel.h
Functions used outside kernel/ - add prototype in asm/setup.h
Removed local prototypes

One of the local prototypes had wrong signature (return void - not int).

sparc: drop use of extern for prototypes in arch/sparc/include/asm

2014-05-19T02:01:29+00:00

Drop extern for all prototypes and adjust alignment of parameters
as required after the removal.
In a few rare cases adjust linelength to conform to maximum 80 chars,
and likewise in a few rare cases adjust alignment of parameters
to static functions.

floppy driver.
