In case perf IRQ is the highest of the medium-level IRQs, and is alone
on its level, it may be treated as NMI:
- LOCKLEVEL is defined to be one level less than EXCM level,
- IRQ masking never lowers current IRQ level,
- new fake exception cause code, EXCCAUSE_MAPPED_NMI is assigned to that
  IRQ; new second level exception handler, do_nmi, assigned to it
  handles it as NMI,
- atomic operations in configurations without s32c1i still need to mask
  all interrupts.

<title>xtensa: don't allow overflow/underflow on unaligned stack</title>

<content type='text'>
Double exceptions that happen during register window overflow/underflow
are handled in the topmost stack frame, as if it was the only exception
that occured. However unaligned access exception handler is special
because it needs to analyze instruction that caused the exception, but
the userspace instruction that triggered window exception is completely
irrelevant. Unaligned data access is rather normal in the generic
userspace code, but stack pointer manipulation must always be done by
architecture-aware code and thus unaligned stack means a serious problem
anyway.
Use the default unaligned access handler that raises SIGBUS in case
of unaligned access in window overflow/underflow handler.

<title>xtensa: add fixup for double exception raised in window overflow</title>

<id>17290231df16eeee5dfc198dbf5ee4b419996dcd</id>
<content type='text'>
There are two FIXMEs in the double exception handler 'for the extremely
unlikely case'. This case gets hit by gcc during kernel build once in
a few hours, resulting in an unrecoverable exception condition.

Provide missing fixup routine to handle this case. Double exception
literals now need 8 more bytes, add them to the linker script.

Also replace bbsi instructions with bbsi.l as we're branching depending
on 8th and 7th LSB-based bits of exception address.

This may be tested by adding the explicit DTLB invalidation to window
overflow handlers, like the following:

    --- a/arch/xtensa/kernel/vectors.S
    +++ b/arch/xtensa/kernel/vectors.S
    @@ -592,6 +592,14 @@ ENDPROC(_WindowUnderflow4)

<title>xtensa: fix fast_syscall_spill_registers</title>

The original implementation could clobber registers under certain conditions.

The Xtensa processor architecture uses windowed registers and the original
implementation was using a4 as a temporary register, which under certain
conditions could be register a0 of the oldest window frame, and didn't always
restore the content correctly.

By moving the _spill_registers routine inside the fast system call, it frees
up one more register (the return address is not required anymore) for the
spill routine.

IRQ handlers are expected to run with IRQs disabled.
See e.g. http://lwn.net/Articles/380931/ for a longer story.

This was overlooked in the commit
  2d1c645 xtensa: dispatch medium-priority interrupts
Revert to old behavior and simplify interrupt entry and exit code.
Interrupt handler still honours IRQ priority.

do_notify_resume/schedule must be called with interrupts enabled, enable
interrupts if we return from user exception.

MMUv3 comes out of reset with identity vaddr -&gt; paddr mapping in the TLB
way 6:
