This resolves the differences between the original 8250 patch, the revised 8250 patch
and the independant clean up of the octeon driver (to use platform devices properly yay!)

The code here has a nested spin_lock_irqsave(). It's not needed since
IRQs are already disabled and it causes a problem because it means that
IRQs won't be enabled again at the end. The second call to
spin_lock_irqsave() will overwrite the value of irq_flags and we can't
restore the proper settings.

Pull staging tree changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here is the big staging tree pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge
window.
Loads of changes here, and we just narrowly added more lines than we
added:
622 files changed, 28356 insertions(+), 26059 deletions(-)
But, good news is that there is a number of subsystems that moved out
of the staging tree, to their respective "real" portions of the
kernel.
Code that moved out was:
- iio core code
- mei driver
- vme core and bridge drivers
There was one broken network driver that moved into staging as a step
before it is removed from the tree (pc300), and there was a few new
drivers added to the tree:
- new iio drivers
- gdm72xx wimax USB driver
- ipack subsystem and 2 drivers

maintainers, and all of this has been in the linux-next tree for a

Updated the generic SPI EEPROM driver AT25 for support of an additional address
bit in the instruction byte. Certain EEPROMS have a size that is larger than the
number of address bytes would allow (e.g. like M95040 from ST that has 512 Byte
size but uses only one address byte (A0 to A7) for addressing.) For the extra
address bit (A8, A16 or A24) bit 3 of the instruction byte is used. This
instruction bit is normally defined as don't care for other AT25 like chips.

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.
Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().
This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a
kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For
this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all
the way back to 2.6.36.
The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates
writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can
solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint
set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly.
The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional
probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function.
The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break
point removal routine will get called later on.

The do_fork and sys_open tests have never worked properly on anything
other than a UP configuration with the kgdb test suite. This is
because the test suite did not fully implement the behavior of a real
debugger. A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to
single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or
conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step
request to return.
Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb
test suite on a 2 processor ARM system:
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
echo V1I1F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
Very soon after starting the test the kernel will start warning with
messages like:
kgdbts: BP mismatch c002487c expected c0024878
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:317 check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4()
[<c01f6520>] (check_and_rewind_pc+0x9c/0xc4)
[<c01f595c>] (validate_simple_test+0x3c/0xc4)
[<c01f60d4>] (run_simple_test+0x1e8/0x274)
The kernel will eventually recovers, but the test suite has completely
failed to test anything useful.
This patch implements behavior similar to a real debugger that does
not rely on hardware single stepping by using only software planted
breakpoints.
In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the
most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the
intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the
single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original
break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger
waits for the thread with the single step pending. Here is a high
level description of the sequence of events.
cont_instead_of_sstep = 0;
1) set breakpoint at do_fork
2) continue
3) Save the thread id where we stop to cont_thread_id
4) Remove breakpoint at do_fork
5) Reset the PC if needed depending on kernel exception type
6) soft single step
7) Check where we stopped
if current thread != cont_thread_id {
if (here for more than 2 times for the same thead) {
### must be a really busy system, start test again ###
goto step 1
}
goto step 5
} else {
cont_instead_of_sstep = 0;
}
8) clean up and run test again if needed
9) Clear out any threads that were waiting on a break point at the
point in time the test is ended with get_cont_catch(). This
happens sometimes because breakpoints are used in place of single
stepping and some threads could have been in the debugger exception
handling queue because breakpoints were hit concurrently on
different CPUs. This also means we wait at least one second before
unplumbing the debugger connection at the very end, so as respond
to any debug threads waiting to be serviced.

The do_fork and sys_open tests have never worked properly on anything
other than a UP configuration with the kgdb test suite. This is
because the test suite did not fully implement the behavior of a real
debugger. A real debugger tracks the state of what thread it asked to
single step and can correctly continue other threads of execution or
conditionally stop while waiting for the original thread single step
request to return.
Below is a simple method to cause a fatal kernel oops with the kgdb
test suite on a 4 processor x86 system:
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
while [ 1 ] ; do ls > /dev/null 2> /dev/null; done&
echo V1I1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
Very soon after starting the test the kernel will oops with a message like:
kgdbts: BP mismatch 3b7da66480 expected ffffffff8106a590
WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:303 check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100()
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff812994a0>] check_and_rewind_pc+0xe0/0x100
[<ffffffff81298945>] validate_simple_test+0x25/0xc0
[<ffffffff81298f77>] run_simple_test+0x107/0x2c0
[<ffffffff81298a18>] kgdbts_put_char+0x18/0x20
The warn will turn to a hard kernel crash shortly after that because
the pc will not get properly rewound to the right value after hitting
a breakpoint leading to a hard lockup.
This change is broken up into 2 pieces because archs that have hw
single stepping (2.6.26 and up) need different changes than archs that
do not have hw single stepping (3.0 and up). This change implements
the correct behavior for an arch that supports hw single stepping.
A minor defect was fixed where sys_open should be do_sys_open
for the sys_open break point test. This solves the problem of running
a 64 bit with a 32 bit user space. The sys_open() never gets called
when using the 32 bit file system for the kgdb testsuite because the
32 bit binaries invoke the compat_sys_open() call leading to the test
never completing.
In order to mimic a real debugger, the kgdb test suite now tracks the
most recent thread that was continued (cont_thread_id), with the
intent to single step just this thread. When the response to the
single step request stops in a different thread that hit the original
break point that thread will now get continued, while the debugger
waits for the thread with the single step pending. Here is a high
level description of the sequence of events.
cont_instead_of_sstep = 0;
1) set breakpoint at do_fork
2) continue
3) Save the thread id where we stop to cont_thread_id
4) Remove breakpoint at do_fork
5) Reset the PC if needed depending on kernel exception type
6) if (cont_instead_of_sstep) { continue } else { single step }
7) Check where we stopped
if current thread != cont_thread_id {
cont_instead_of_sstep = 1;
goto step 5
} else {
cont_instead_of_sstep = 0;
}
8) clean up and run test again if needed

On x86 the kgdb test suite will oops when the kernel is compiled with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and you run the tests after boot time. This is
regression has existed since 2.6.26 by commit: b33cb815 (kgdbts: Use
HW breakpoints with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA).
The test suite can use hw breakpoints for all the tests, but it has to
execute the hardware breakpoint specific tests first in order to
determine that the hw breakpoints actually work. Specifically the
very first test causes an oops:
# echo V1I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
kgdb: Registered I/O driver kgdbts.
kgdbts:RUN plant and detach test
Entering kdb (current=0xffff880017aa9320, pid 1078) on processor 0 due to Keyboard Entry
[0]kdb> kgdbts: ERROR PUT: end of test buffer on 'plant_and_detach_test' line 1 expected OK got $E14#aa
WARNING: at drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:730 run_simple_test+0x151/0x2c0()
[...oops clipped...]
This commit re-orders the running of the tests and puts the RODATA
check into its own function so as to correctly avoid the kernel oops
by detecting and using the hw breakpoints.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system
Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

asm/system.h is a cause of circular dependency problems because it contains
commonly used primitive stuff like barrier definitions and uncommonly used
stuff like switch_to() that might require MMU definitions.
asm/system.h has been disintegrated by this point on all arches into the
following common segments:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Moved memory barrier definitions here.
(2) asm/cmpxchg.h
Moved xchg() and cmpxchg() here. #included in asm/atomic.h.
(3) asm/bug.h
Moved die() and similar here.
(4) asm/exec.h
Moved arch_align_stack() here.
(5) asm/elf.h
Moved AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
(6) asm/switch_to.h

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window. It is going to be a
bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
maintain and that nobody really used anymore.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Legacy iSeries is gone. Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
hopefully.
- The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"... it's a rewrite of a
mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
new implementation hopefully being much more reliable. Thanks
Mahesh Salgaonkar.
- The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big
spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.
The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
there. Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
not very nice and which Grant objects to. I will have a patch soon
that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
getting rid of the need for that pointer completely). Thanks Gavin
Shan.
- I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the
way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
"edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed
a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
fault retry & fatal signals on page faults.
- Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch
of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."
I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.
