The boot_params member of the mdesc structure is used to provide a
default physical address for the ATAG list. Since this value is fixed
at compile time and sometimes based on constants such as ARCH_PHYS_OFFSET,
it gets in the way of runtime PHYS_OFFSET and CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT
usage.
Let's introduce atag_offset which should contains only the relative
offset from PHYS_OFFSET instead of an absolute value, in preparation
to move all instance of boot_params over to it.

The smp_twd clockevents driver currently enables the local timer PPI
before the clockevents device is registered. This can lead to a kernel
panic if a spurious timer interrupt is generated before registration
has completed since the kernel will treat it as an IPI timer.
This patch moves the clockevents device registration before the IRQ
unmasking so that we can always handle timer interrupts once they can
occur.

This patch adds irq_domain infrastructure for translating from
hardware irq numbers to linux irqs. This is particularly important
for architectures adding device tree support because the current
implementation (excluding PowerPC and SPARC) cannot handle
translation for more than a single interrupt controller. irq_domain
supports device tree translation for any number of interrupt
controllers.
This patch converts x86, Microblaze, ARM and MIPS to use irq_domain
for device tree irq translation. x86 is untested beyond compiling it,
irq_domain is enabled for MIPS and Microblaze, but the old behaviour is
preserved until the core code is modified to actually register an
irq_domain yet. On ARM it works and is required for much of the new
ARM device tree board support.
PowerPC has /not/ been converted to use this new infrastructure. It
is still missing some features before it can replace the virq
infrastructure already in powerpc (see documentation on
irq_domain_map/unmap for details). Followup patches will add the
missing pieces and migrate PowerPC to use irq_domain.
SPARC has its own method of managing interrupts from the device tree
and is unaffected by this change.

Our selection of interrupts to consider for IRQ migration is sub-
standard. We were potentially including per-CPU interrupts in our
migration strategy, but omitting chained interrupts. This caused
some interrupts to remain on a downed CPU.
We were also trying to migrate interrupts which were not migratable,
resulting in an OOPS.
Instead, iterate over all interrupts, skipping per-CPU interrupts
or interrupts whose affinity does not include the downed CPU, and
attempt to set the affinity for every one else if their chip
implements irq_set_affinity().

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.

This writes a new value to PC which was obtained as the result of an ARM
ALU instruction. For ARMv7 and later this performs interworking.
On ARM kernels we shouldn't encounter any ALU instructions trying to
switch to Thumb mode so support for this isn't strictly necessary.
However, the approach taken in all other instruction decoding is for us
to avoid unpredictable modification of the PC for security reasons. This
is usually achieved by rejecting insertion of probes on problematic
instruction, but for ALU instructions we can't do this as it depends on
the contents of the CPU registers at the time the probe is hit. So, as
we require some form of run-time checking to trap undesirable PC
modification, we may as well simulate the instructions correctly, i.e.
in the way they would behave in the absence of a probe.

This patch improves the performance of LDM and STM instruction
emulation. This is desirable because.
- jprobes and kretprobes probe the first instruction in a function and,
when the frame pointer is omitted, this instruction is often a STM
used to push registers onto the stack.
- The STM and LDM instructions are common in the body and tail of
functions.
- At the same time as being a common instruction form, they also have
one of the slowest and most complicated simulation routines.
The approach taken to optimisation is to use emulation rather than
simulation, that is, a modified form of the instruction is run with
an appropriate register context.
Benchmarking on an OMAP3530 shows the optimised emulation is between 2
and 3 times faster than the simulation routines. On a Kirkwood based
device the relative performance was very significantly better than this.

We previously changed the behaviour of probes so that conditional

and Thumb branches in IT blocks, this means they don't fire if the
branch isn't taken.
For consistency, we implement the same for Thumb conditional branch
instructions. This involves setting up insn_check_cc to point to the
relevant condition checking function. As the emulation routine is only
called when this condition passes, it doesn't need to check again and
can unconditionally update PC.

The existing ARM instruction decoding functions are a mass of if/else
code. Rather than follow this pattern for Thumb instruction decoding
this patch implements an infrastructure for a new table driven scheme.
This has several advantages:
- Reduces the kernel size by approx 2kB. (The ARM instruction decoding
will eventually have -3.1kB code, +1.3kB data; with similar or better
estimated savings for Thumb decoding.)

When we come to emulating Thumb instructions then, to interwork
correctly, the code on in the instruction slot must be invoked with a
function pointer which has the least significant bit set. Rather that
set this by hand in every Thumb emulation function we will add a new
field for this purpose to arch_specific_insn, called insn_fn.
This also enables us to seamlessly share emulation functions between ARM
and Thumb code.

When a probe fires we must single-step the instruction which was
replaced by a breakpoint. As the steps to do this vary between ARM and
Thumb instructions we need a way to customise single-stepping.
This is done by adding a new hook called insn_singlestep to
arch_specific_insn which is initialised by the instruction decoding
functions.
These single-step hooks must update PC and call the instruction handler.
For Thumb instructions an additional step of updating ITSTATE is needed.
We do this after calling the handler because some handlers will need to
test if they are running in an IT block.

This patch changes the behavior of kprobes on ARM so that:
Kprobes on conditional instructions don't trigger when the
condition is false. For conditional branches, this means that
they don't trigger in the branch not taken case.
Rationale:
When probes are placed onto conditionally executed instructions in a
Thumb IT block, they may not fire if the condition is not met. This
is because we use invalid instructions for breakpoints and "it is
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether the instruction executes as a NOP or
causes an Undefined Instruction exception". Therefore, for consistency,
we will ignore all probes on any conditional instructions when the
condition is false. Alternative solutions seem to be too complex to
implement or inconsistent.

As breakpoints are no longer of a fixed size, the flush_insns macro

Note, we need both 16- and 32-bit Thumb breakpoints, because if we
were to use a 16-bit breakpoint to replace a 32-bit instruction which
was in an IT block, and the condition check failed, then the breakpoint
may not fire (it's unpredictable behaviour) and the CPU could then try

When __irq_svc - or any of the other exception handling assembly code -
calls the C code, the stack pointer will be pointing at the pt_regs
structure.
All the entry points into C code from the exception handling code are
marked with __exception or __exception_irq_enter to indicate that they
are one of the functions which has pt_regs above them.
Normally, when you've entered asm_do_IRQ() you will have this stack
layout (higher address towards top):
pt_regs
asm_do_IRQ frame
If you insert a C function between the exception assembly code and
asm_do_IRQ, you end up with this stack layout instead:
pt_regs
your function frame
asm_do_IRQ frame
This means when we unwind, we'll get to asm_do_IRQ, and rather than
dumping out the pt_regs, we'll dump out your functions stack frame
instead, because that's what is above the asm_do_IRQ stack frame
rather than the expected pt_regs structure.
The fix is to introduce handle_IRQ() for no exception stack dump, so
it can be called with MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER is selected and a C function
is between the assembly code and the actual IRQ handling code.

Fix a hole in the VFP thread migration. Lets define two threads.
Thread 1, we'll call 'interesting_thread' which is a thread which is
running on CPU0, using VFP (so vfp_current_hw_state[0] =
&interesting_thread->vfpstate) and gets migrated off to CPU1, where
it continues execution of VFP instructions.
Thread 2, we'll call 'new_cpu0_thread' which is the thread which takes
over on CPU0. This has also been using VFP, and last used VFP on CPU0,
but doesn't use it again.
The following code will be executed twice:
cpu = thread->cpu;
/*
* On SMP, if VFP is enabled, save the old state in
* case the thread migrates to a different CPU. The
* restoring is done lazily.
*/
if ((fpexc & FPEXC_EN) && vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]) {
vfp_save_state(vfp_current_hw_state[cpu], fpexc);
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]->hard.cpu = cpu;
}
/*
* Thread migration, just force the reloading of the
* state on the new CPU in case the VFP registers
* contain stale data.
*/
if (thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu != cpu)
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] = NULL;
The first execution will be on CPU0 to switch away from 'interesting_thread'.
interesting_thread->cpu will be 0.
So, vfp_current_hw_state[0] points at interesting_thread->vfpstate.
The hardware state will be saved, along with the CPU number (0) that
it was executing on.
'thread' will be 'new_cpu0_thread' with new_cpu0_thread->cpu = 0.
Also, because it was executing on CPU0, new_cpu0_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0,
and so the thread migration check is not triggered.
This means that vfp_current_hw_state[0] remains pointing at interesting_thread.
The second execution will be on CPU1 to switch _to_ 'interesting_thread'.
So, 'thread' will be 'interesting_thread' and interesting_thread->cpu now
will be 1. The previous thread executing on CPU1 is not relevant to this
so we shall ignore that.
We get to the thread migration check. Here, we discover that
interesting_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, yet interesting_thread->cpu is
now 1, indicating thread migration. We set vfp_current_hw_state[1] to
NULL.
So, at this point vfp_current_hw_state[] contains the following:
[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
[1] = NULL
Our interesting thread now executes a VFP instruction, takes a fault
which loads the state into the VFP hardware. Now, through the assembly
we now have:
[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
[1] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
CPU1 stops due to ptrace (and so saves its VFP state) using the thread
switch code above), and CPU0 calls vfp_sync_hwstate().
if (vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &thread->vfpstate) {
vfp_save_state(&thread->vfpstate, fpexc | FPEXC_EN);
BANG, we corrupt interesting_thread's VFP state by overwriting the
more up-to-date state saved by CPU1 with the old VFP state from CPU0.
Fix this by ensuring that we have sane semantics for the various state
describing variables:
1. vfp_current_hw_state[] points to the current owner of the context
information stored in each CPUs hardware, or NULL if that state
information is invalid.
2. thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu always contains the most recent CPU number
which the state was loaded into or NR_CPUS if no CPU owns the state.
So, for a particular CPU to be a valid owner of the VFP state for a
particular thread t, two things must be true:
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &t->vfpstate && t->vfpstate.hard.cpu == cpu.
and that is valid from the moment a CPU loads the saved VFP context
into the hardware. This gives clear and consistent semantics to
interpreting these variables.
This patch also fixes thread copying, ensuring that t->vfpstate.hard.cpu
is invalidated, otherwise CPU0 may believe it was the last owner. The
hole can happen thus:
- thread1 runs on CPU2 using VFP, migrates to CPU3, exits and thread_info
freed.
- New thread allocated from a previously running thread on CPU2, reusing
memory for thread1 and copying vfp.hard.cpu.
At this point, the following are true:
new_thread1->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 2
&new_thread1->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[2]
Lastly, this also addresses thread flushing in a similar way to thread
copying. Hole is:
- thread runs on CPU0, using VFP, migrates to CPU1 but does not use VFP.
- thread calls execve(), so thread flush happens, leaving
vfp_current_hw_state[0] intact. This vfpstate is memset to 0 causing
thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0.
- thread migrates back to CPU0 before using VFP.
At this point, the following are true:
thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 0
&thread->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[0]

If an ARM system has multiple cpus in the same socket and the

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

- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from

- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot

As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a

This avoids unnecessary instructions for CPUs which implement the IFAR
(instruction fault address register).

This allows us to avoid moving registers twice to work around the
clobbered registers when we add calls to trace_hardirqs_{on,off}.
Ensure that all SVC handlers return with SPSR in r5 for consistency.

This patch adds support for platform_device_id tables, allowing new
PMU types to be registered with the correct type, without requiring
new platform_driver shims to provide the type. An single entry for
existing devices is provided.
Macros matching functionality of the of_device_id table macros are
provided for convenience.

This is based on an earlier patch from Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com>

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

There's no point checking to see whether IRQs were masked in the parent
context when returning from IRQ handling - the fact that we're handling
an IRQ means that the parent context must have had IRQs unmasked.

irq_enter() and irq_exit() already take care of the preempt_count
handling for interrupts, which increment and decrement the hardirq
bits of the preempt count. So we can remove the preempt count handing
in our IRQ entry/exit assembly, like x86 did some 9 years ago.
