Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

If a machine check happens, the machine has the vector facility installed
and the extended save area exists, the cpu will save vector register
contents into the extended save area. This is regardless of control
register 0 contents, which enables and disables the vector facility during
runtime.
On each machine check we should validate the vector registers. The current
code however tries to validate the registers only if the running task is
using vector registers in user space.
However even the current code is broken and causes vector register
corruption on machine checks, if user space uses them:
the prefix area contains a pointer (absolute address) to the machine check
extended save area. In order to save some space the save area was put into
an unused area of the second prefix page.
When validating vector register contents the code uses the absolute address
of the extended save area, which is wrong. Due to prefixing the vector
instructions will then access contents using absolute addresses instead
of real addresses, where the machine stored the contents.
If the above would work there is still the problem that register validition
would only happen if user space uses vector registers. If kernel space uses
them also, this may also lead to vector register content corruption:
if the kernel makes use of vector instructions, but the current running
user space context does not, the machine check handler will validate
floating point registers instead of vector registers.
Given the fact that writing to a floating point register may change the
upper halve of the corresponding vector register, we also experience vector
register corruption in this case.
Fix all of these issues, and always validate vector registers on each
machine check, if the machine has the vector facility installed and the
extended save area is defined.

The sfpc inline assembly within execve_tail() may incorrectly set bits
28-31 of the sfpc instruction to a value which is not zero.
These bits however are currently unused and therefore should be zero
so we won't get surprised if these bits will be used in the future.
Therefore remove the second operand from the inline assembly.

Currently instruction_pointer() returns pt_regs->ret and so return value
is of type "long", which implicitly stands for "signed long".
While that's perfectly fine when dealing with 32-bit values if return
value of instruction_pointer() gets assigned to 64-bit variable sign
extension may happen.
And at least in one real use-case it happens already.
In perf_prepare_sample() return value of perf_instruction_pointer()
(which is an alias to instruction_pointer() in case of ARC) is assigned
to (struct perf_sample_data)->ip (which type is "u64").
And what we see if instuction pointer points to user-space application
that in case of ARC lays below 0x8000_0000 "ip" gets set properly with
leading 32 zeros. But if instruction pointer points to kernel address
space that starts from 0x8000_0000 then "ip" is set with 32 leadig
"f"-s. I.e. id instruction_pointer() returns 0x8100_0000, "ip" will be
assigned with 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000. Which is obviously wrong.
In particular that issuse broke output of perf, because perf was unable
to associate addresses like 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000 with anything from
/proc/kallsyms.
That's what we used to see:
----------->8----------
6.27% ls [unknown] [k] 0xffffffff8046c5cc
2.96% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy
2.25% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memset

1.18% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] 0x00022472
----------->8----------
With that change perf output looks much better now:
----------->8----------
8.21% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memset
3.52% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy

Create some intelligent default settings for each ColdFire SoC type
in the configuration entry for CONFIG_CLOCK_FREQ.
The ColdFire clock frequency is configurable at build time. There is a
lot of variation in the frequency of operation on specific ColdFire based
boards. But we can choose a default that matches the maximum frequency
of clock operation for a particular ColdFire part. That is typically
the most common clock setting.

Driver core sets "default" pinmux on on probe and CAN driver
sets "sleep" pinmux during register. This causes a small window
where the CAN pins are in "default" state with the DCAN module
being disabled.

avoided. Add a new "active" state that is used by the driver
when CAN is actually active.

Note that the pte value is 0 except for the accessed bit 0x100. This bit
shouldn't be set without the present bit.
It should be noted that the madvise system call is probably a trigger for many
of the random segmentation faults.
In looking at the kernel code, I found the following problems:
1) The pte_clear define didn't take TLB lock when clearing a pte.
2) We didn't test pte present bit inside lock in exception support.
3) The pte and tlb locks needed to merged in order to ensure consistency
between page table and TLB. This also has the effect of serializing TLB
broadcasts on SMP systems.
The attached change implements the above and a few other tweaks to try
to improve performance. Based on the timing code, TLB purges are very
slow (e.g., ~ 209 cycles per page on rp3440). Thus, I think it
beneficial to test the split_tlb variable to avoid duplicate purges.
Probably, all PA 2.0 machines have combined TLBs.
I dropped using __flush_tlb_range in flush_tlb_mm as I realized all
applications and most threads have a stack size that is too large to
make this useful. I added some comments to this effect.
Since implementing 1 through 3, I haven't had any random segmentation
faults on mx3210 (rp3440) in about one week of building code and running
as a Debian buildd.

We currently set x27 in compat_sys_sigreturn_wrapper and
compat_sys_rt_sigreturn_wrapper, similarly to what we do with r8/why on
32-bit ARM, in an attempt to prevent sigreturns from being restarted.
However, on arm64 we have always used pt_regs::syscallno for syscall
restarting (for both native and compat tasks), and x27 is never
inspected again before being overwritten in kernel_exit.
This patch removes the pointless register assignments.

After commit (0c4109bec0 'x86/fpu/xstate: Fix up bad get_xsave_addr()
assumptions'), there is no assumption an xsave bit is present in the
hardware (pcntxt_mask) that it is always present in a given xsave buffer.
An enabled state to be present on 'pcntxt_mask', but *not* in 'xstate_bv'
could happen when the last 'xsave' did not request that this feature be
saved (unlikely) or because the "init optimization" caused it to not be
saved. This patch kill the assumption.

Currently guest MTRR is avoided if kvm_is_reserved_pfn returns true.
However, the guest could prefer a different page type than UC for
such pages. A good example is that pass-throughed VGA frame buffer is
not always UC as host expected.
This patch enables full use of virtual guest MTRRs.

Right now, NPT page attributes are not used, and the final page
attribute depends solely on gPAT (which however is not synced
correctly), the guest MTRRs and the guest page attributes.
However, we can do better by mimicking what is done for VMX.
In the absence of PCI passthrough, the guest PAT can be ignored
and the page attributes can be just WB. If passthrough is being
used, instead, keep respecting the guest PAT, and emulate the guest
MTRRs through the PAT field of the nested page tables.
The only snag is that WP memory cannot be emulated correctly,
because Linux's default PAT setting only includes the other types.

If there are no assigned devices, the guest PAT are not providing
any useful information and can be overridden to writeback; VMX
always does this because it has the "IPAT" bit in its extended
page table entries, but SVM does not have anything similar.
Hook into VFIO and legacy device assignment so that they
provide this information to KVM.

fpu_activate is called outside of vcpu_load(), which means it should not
touch VMCS, but fpu_activate needs to. Avoid the call by moving it to a
point where we know that the guest needs eager FPU and VMCS is loaded.

only.

Implement the mips_cdmm_phys_base() platform callback to provide a
default Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) physical base address for the
Pistachio SoC. This allows the CDMM in each VPE to be configured and
probed for devices, such as the Fast Debug Channel (FDC).
The physical address chosen is just below the default CPC address, which
appears to also be unallocated.
The FDC IRQ is also usable on Pistachio, and is routed through the GIC,
so implement the get_c0_fdc_int() platform callback using
gic_get_c0_fdc_int(), so the FDC driver doesn't have to fall back to
polling.

Wider testing reveals that the Fast Debug Channel (FDC) interrupt is
routed through the GIC just fine on Pistachio SoC, even though it
contains interAptiv cores. Clearly the FDC interrupt routing problems
previously observed on interAptiv and proAptiv cores are specific to the
Malta FPGA bitstreams.
Move the workaround for interAptiv and proAptiv out of
gic_get_c0_fdc_int() in the GIC irqchip driver into Malta's
get_c0_fdc_int() platform callback, to allow the Pistachio SoC to use
the FDC interrupt.

MT_SMP is not the only SMP option for MT cores. The MT_SMP option
allows more than one VPE per core to appear as a secondary CPU in the
system. Because of how CM works, it propagates the address-based
cache ops to the secondary cores but not the index-based ones.
Because of that, the code does not use IPIs to flush the L1 caches on
secondary cores because the CM would have done that already. However,
the CM functionality is independent of the type of SMP kernel so even in
non-MT kernels, IPIs are not necessary. As a result of which, we change
the conditional to depend on the CM presence. Moreover, since VPEs on
the same core share the same L1 caches, there is no need to send an
IPI on all of them so we calculate a suitable cpumask with only one
VPE per core.
