Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

Move the perf-events backend from arch/arm/oprofile into
drivers/oprofile so that the code can be shared between architectures.
This allows each architecture to maintain only a single copy of the PMU
accessor functions instead of one for both perf and OProfile. It also
becomes possible for other architectures to delete much of their
OProfile code in favour of the common code now available in
drivers/oprofile/oprofile_perf.c.

The PL310 on the ct-ca9x4 tile for the Versatile Express does not need
to add additional latency when accessing its cache RAMs. Unfortunately,
the boot monitor sets this up for an 8-cycle delay on reads and writes,
resulting in greatly reduced memory performance when the L2 cache is
enabled.
This patch sets the L2 RAM latencies to the correct value of 1 cycle
on the ct-ca9x4 tile before enabling the L2 cache.

Currently we map 1 MB section while setting up SRAM on OMAPs
Regardless of the actual memory. The physical OCM RAM available
on OMAP SOCs is in order of KBs. This patch maps only available
sram and cleans up some un-necessary cpu_is_xxx checks.
Mapping un-available or non-accessible(secure) memory on the newer ARM
processor is dangerous. Because ARM CPUs can now speculatively prefetch,
we should avoid mapping any no-existing or secure memory.

This patch populates the L1 entries for MT_MEMORY and MT_MEMORY_NONCACHED
types so that at boot-up, we can map memories outside system memory
at page level granularity
Previously the mapping was limiting to section level, which creates
unnecessary additional mapping for which physical memory may not
present. On the newer ARM with speculation, this is dangerous and can
result in untraceable aborts.

When the policy for user space is to ignore misaligned accesses from user
space, the processor then performs a documented rotation on the accessed
data. This is the result of the access being trapped, and the kernel
disabling the alignment trap before returning to user space again.
In kernel space we always want misaligned accesses to be fixed up. This
is enforced by always re-enabling the alignment trap on every entry into
kernel space from user space. No such re-enabling is performed when an
exception occurs while already in kernel space as the alignment trap is
always supposed to be enabled in that case.
There is however a small race window when a misaligned access in user
space is trapped and the alignment trap disabled, but the CPU didn't
return to user space just yet. Any exception would be entered from kernel
space at that point and the kernel would then execute with the alignment
trap disabled.
Thanks to Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> for providing a test module
that made this issue reproducible.

Use a correct udelay value to get bus speed around 100KHz. The udelay
value was most likely copied from the older devices, but the 9g45
is signicantly faster (400MHz, DDR, ..), so a udelay of 2 gives a
bus speed of around 190KHz, which is too fast for some devices.
A udelay value of 5 gives a bus speed of around 90KHz here.

This fixes the regression caused by the commit 6fee48cd330c68
("dma-mapping: arm: use generic pci_set_dma_mask and
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask").
ARM needs to clip the dma coherent mask for dmabounce devices. This
restores the old trick.
Note that strictly speaking, the DMA API doesn't allow architectures to do
such but I'm not sure it's worth adding the new API to set the dma mask
that allows architectures to clip it.

ARMv7 onwards requires that there are no aliases to the same physical
location using different memory types (i.e. Normal vs Strongly Ordered).
Access to SO mappings when the unaligned accesses are handled in
hardware is also Unpredictable (pgprot_noncached() mappings in user
space).
The /dev/mem driver requires uncached mappings with O_SYNC. The patch
implements the phys_mem_access_prot() function which generates Strongly
Ordered memory attributes if !pfn_valid() (independent of O_SYNC) and
Normal Noncacheable (writecombine) if O_SYNC.

If a signal hits us outside of a syscall and another gets delivered
when we are in sigreturn (e.g. because it had been in sa_mask for
the first one and got sent to us while we'd been in the first handler),
we have a chance of returning from the second handler to location one
insn prior to where we ought to return. If r0 happens to contain -513
(-ERESTARTNOINTR), sigreturn will get confused into doing restart
syscall song and dance.
Incredible joy to debug, since it manifests as random, infrequent and
very hard to reproduce double execution of instructions in userland
code...
The fix is simple - mark it "don't bother with restarts" in wrapper,
i.e. set r8 to 0 in sys_sigreturn and sys_rt_sigreturn wrappers,
suppressing the syscall restart handling on return from these guys.
They can't legitimately return a restart-worthy error anyway.
Testcase:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <errno.h>
void f(int n)
{
__asm__ __volatile__(
"ldr r0, [%0]\n"
"b 1f\n"
"b 2f\n"
"1:b .\n"
"2:\n" : : "r"(&n));
}
void handler1(int sig) { }
void handler2(int sig) { raise(1); }
void handler3(int sig) { exit(0); }
main()
{
struct sigaction s = {.sa_handler = handler2};
struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} };
struct itimerval t2 = { .it_value = {2} };
signal(1, handler1);
sigemptyset(&s.sa_mask);
sigaddset(&s.sa_mask, 1);

register
Clearing bit 22 in the PL310 Auxiliary Control register (shared
attribute override enable) has the side effect of transforming Normal
Shared Non-cacheable reads into Cacheable no-allocate reads.
Coherent DMA buffers in Linux always have a Cacheable alias via the
kernel linear mapping and the processor can speculatively load cache
lines into the PL310 controller. With bit 22 cleared, Non-cacheable
reads would unexpectedly hit such cache lines leading to buffer
corruption.
