This reverts commit d761f0c521868e59cd0bc59159cbdb4686fe210d.
Patch: "cpu: Register a generic CPU device on architectures that currently do not"
(sha1: 9f13a1fd452f11c18004ba2422a6384b424ec8a9)
selects GENERIC_CPU_DEVICES for Microblaze which register cpu.
My patch was done in the same time that's why cpu was registered twice which
caused this warning log:

Every arch calls:
if (unlikely(current->audit_context))
audit_syscall_entry()
which requires knowledge about audit (the existance of audit_context) in
the arch code. Just do it all in static inline in audit.h so that arch's
can remain blissfully ignorant.

The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
success or failure. This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall. The fix is to fix the
layering foolishness. We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
determine if the syscall was a success or failure. We also define a generic
is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
value is < -MAX_ERRNO. This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.
We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
instead of macros. The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
for the regs. (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs). Since the audit
function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
arch correct structure to dereference it.
The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.
In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
audit code as the return value. But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
regs_return_value() as regs[3]. I have no idea which one is correct, but this
patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].
For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3]. regs->gprs[3] is
always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
before calling the audit code when appropriate.

As has been discussed many times[1], Using NO_IRQ set to anything other
than 0 is bug waiting to happen since many drivers follow the pattern
"if (!irq)" for testing whether or not an irq has been set.
This patch changes the Microblaze NO_IRQ setting from -1 to 0 to bring
it in line with most of the rest of the kernel. It also prepares for
Microblaze eventually supporting multiple interrupt controllers by
breaking the assumption that hwirq# == Linux IRQ#. The Linux IRQ
number is just a cookie with no guarantee of a direct relationship
with the hardware irq arrangement.
At this point, Microblaze interrupt handling only supports only one
instance of one kind of interrupt controller (xilinx_intc). This change
shouldn't affect any architecture code outside of the interrupt
controller driver and the irq_of mapping.
Updated to 3.2 and to use irq_data.hwirq by Rob Herring.
Tested and fixed by Michal Simek.

Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of
tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single
irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would
needlessly process any RCU job.
Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits
have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple
idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.

It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless
mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always
true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after
the tick is stopped.
To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs:
tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu().
If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between
tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch
must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't
need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit().
Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and
tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly:
- rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put
to sleep.
- rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken
up.

The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay
the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two
places:
- From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode
- From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick
idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in
case the irq changed some internal state that requires this
action.
There are only few minor differences between both that
are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle
cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees
that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually
interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended
quiescent state from idle loop entry only.
Split this function into:
- tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters
dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU
extended quiescent state.
- tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode
when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called).
To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed
into tick_nohz_idle_exit().
This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need
for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between
dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to
further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle
loop.

memblock_init() initializes arrays for regions and memblock itself;
however, all these can be done with struct initializers and
memblock_init() can be removed. This patch kills memblock_init() and
initializes memblock with struct initializer.
The only difference is that the first dummy entries don't have .nid
set to MAX_NUMNODES initially. This doesn't cause any behavior
difference.

As far as I can tell the only reason microblaze has
__ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW is because it initializes new task state
with interrupts enabled so that on switch_to() interrupts get enabled.
So change copy_thread() to clear MSR_IE instead of set it, this will
ensure switch_to() will always keep IRQs disabled.
The scheduler will disable IRQs when taking rq->lock in schedule() and
enable IRQs in finish_lock_switch() after its done its magic.
This leaves ARM the only __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW user.

1. Register early console as standard console
2. Enable CON_BOOT console flag to ensure auto-unregistering by the kernel
3. remap_early_printk function remap physical console baseaddr to virtual space
Usage specific function for console remap is done after memory initialization
with IRQ turn off that's why there is not necessary to protect it.
The reason for remapping is that the kernel use TLB 63 for 1:1 address mapping
to be able to use console in very early boot-up phase. But allocating one TLB
just for console caused performance degression that's why ioremaps create new
mapping and TLB 63 is automatically released and ready to use.

value in ex_tmp_data_loc_X address which is load to registers r3.
The next step is to move this value from r3 to a destination
register which caused unaligned exception. For several registers
this value was directly moved to the register.
For example for r28:
by "or r28, r0, r3"
but register r28 was rewritten when kernel returns from exception
handler by value saved on stack.
This patch changed r3 saving to the correct address on the stack.
For example for r28:
by "swi r3, r1, 4 * 28"
When kernel returns from the exception handler, correct value is restored.

This patch removes all the module loader hook implementations in the
architecture specific code where the functionality is the same as that
now provided by the recently added default hooks.

* 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.

This patch drops the reference to a global 'cmd_line' variable from
early_init_dt_scan_chosen, and instead passes the pointer to the command
line string via the *data argument. Each architecture does something
slightly different with the initial command line, so it makes sense for
the architecture to be able to specify the variable name.
