I've got hands on one ts-7300 board, which is equiped with 128MB RAM in two
64MB memory chips, so it's 16 banks/8MB each. Without this patch, the bootmem
init code complains about small NR_BANKS number and only lower 64MB is
accessible.

Currently, the documented kernel entry requirements are not
explicit about whether the kernel should be entered in ARM or
Thumb, leading to an ambiguitity about how to enter Thumb-2
kernels. As a result, the kernel is reliant on the zImage
decompressor to enter the kernel proper in the correct instruction
set state.
This patch changes the boot entry protocol for head.S and Image to
be the same as for zImage: in all cases, the kernel is now entered
in ARM.
Documentation/arm/Booting is updated to reflect this new policy.
A different rule will be needed for Cortex-M class CPUs as and when
support for those lands in mainline, since these CPUs don't support
the ARM instruction set at all: a note is added to the effect that
the kernel must be entered in Thumb on such systems.

Poisoning __init marked memory can be useful when tracking down
obscure memory corruption bugs. Therefore, poison init memory
with 0xe7fddef0 to catch bugs earlier. The poison value is an
undefined instruction in ARM mode and branch to an undefined
instruction in Thumb mode.

If an ARM system has multiple cpus in the same socket and the
kernel is booted with maxcpus=1, secondary cpus are possible but
not present due to how platform_smp_prepare_cpus() is called.
Since most typical ARM processors don't actually support physical
hotplug, initialize the present map to be equal to the possible
map in generic ARM SMP code. Also, always call
platform_smp_prepare_cpus() as long as max_cpus is non-zero (0
means no SMP) to allow platform code to do any SMP setup.
After applying this patch it's possible to boot an ARM system
with maxcpus=1 on the command line and then hotplug in secondary
cpus via sysfs. This is more in line with how x86 does things.

The macros for invoking functions via the processor struct in the
MULTI_CPU case define the arguments as part of the macros, making it
impossible to take the address of those functions.
This patch removes the arguments from the macro definitions so that we
can take the address of these functions like we can for the !MULTI_CPU
case.

The PB11MPCore reports "3" DTCM banks, but anything above 2 is an
"undefined" value, so push this to become 0. Further add some checks
if code is compiled to TCM even if there is no D/ITCM present in the
system, and if we can really fit the compiled code. We don't do the
BUG() since it's not helpful, it's better to deal with non-present
TCM dynamically. If there is nothing compiled to the TCM and no TCM
is detected, it will now just shut up even if TCM support is enabled.

This modification sets the PMU hardware type based on data embedded in the
binding, allowing easy addition of new PMU types in future.
Support for new PMU types not provided by devicetree can be added later using
platform_device_id tables in a similar fashion.

Currently, the PMU reservation framework allows for multiple PMUs of
the same type to register themselves. This can lead to a bug with the
sequence:
register_pmu(pmu1);
reserve_pmu(pmu_type);
register_pmu(pmu2);
release_pmu(pmu1);
Here, pmu1 cannot be released, and pmu2 cannot be reserved.
This patch modifies register_pmu to reject registrations where a PMU is
already present, preventing this problem. PMUs which can have multiple
instances should not use the PMU reservation framework.

Currently, PMU platform_device reservation relies on some minor abuse
of the platform_device::id field for determining the type of PMU. This
is problematic for device tree based probing, where the ID cannot be
controlled.
This patch removes reliance on the id field, and depends on each PMU's
platform driver to figure out which type it is. As all PMUs handled by
the current platform_driver name "arm-pmu" are CPU PMUs, this
convention is hardcoded. New PMU types can be supported through the use
of {of,platform}_device_id tables

This allows a ROM-able zImage to be written to eSD and for SuperH Mobile
ARM to boot directly from the SDHI hardware block.
This is achieved by the MaskROM loading the first portion of the image into
MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion contains loader code which
copies the entire image to SDRAM and jumps to it. From there the zImage
boot code proceeds as normal, uncompressing the image into its final
location and then jumping to it.

Allow SoCs to enable the scatterlist chaining support, which allows
scatterlist tables to be broken up into smaller allocations.
As support for this feature depends on the implementation details of
the users of the scatterlists, we can't enable this globally without
auditing all the users, which is a very big task. Instead, let SoCs
progressively switch over to using this.
SoC drivers using scatterlists and SoC DMA implementations need
auditing before this option can be enabled for the SoC.

* setns:
ns: Wire up the setns system call
Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call
|
|
32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.
setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.
While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.
v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

The style that we normally use in asm-generic is to test the macro itself
for existence, so in asm-generic, do:
#ifndef find_next_zero_bit_le
extern unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
unsigned long size, unsigned long offset);
#endif
and in the architectures, write
static inline unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
unsigned long size, unsigned long offset)
#define find_next_zero_bit_le find_next_zero_bit_le
This adds the #define for each of the optimized find bitops in the
architectures.

On ARMv7 CPUs that cache first level page table entries (like the
Cortex-A15), using a reserved ASID while changing the TTBR or flushing
the TLB is unsafe.
This is because the CPU may cache the first level entry as the result of
a speculative memory access while the reserved ASID is assigned. After
the process owning the page tables dies, the memory will be reallocated
and may be written with junk values which can be interpreted as global,
valid PTEs by the processor. This will result in the TLB being populated
with bogus global entries.
This patch avoids the use of a reserved context ID in the v7 switch_mm
and ASID rollover code by temporarily using the swapper_pg_dir pointed
at by TTBR1, which contains only global entries that are not tagged
with ASIDs.

The v6 and v7 implementations of flush_kern_dcache_area do not align
the passed MVA to the size of a cacheline in the data cache. If a
misaligned address is used, only a subset of the requested area will
be flushed. This has been observed to cause failures in SMP boot where
the secondary_data initialised by the primary CPU is not cacheline
aligned, causing the secondary CPUs to read incorrect values for their
pgd and stack pointers.
This patch ensures that the base address is cacheline aligned before
flushing the d-cache.

The DB8500v2 and DB5500 has a fifth version of the "PL023" and
PL180 blocks. However the ASIC engineers have forgot to bump the
revision in the PrimeCell peripheral ID registers. Since the
platform is aware of the actual silicon revision we need to
hard-code the periphid from the platform, bumping the subrevision
field to 1.

This is redundant. The correct ID number is right there in the
hardware anyway. We will introduce a mechanism later to hard-code
this for deviant cells.
