2013-12-19ARC: Allow conditional multiple inclusion of uapi/asm/unistd.hVineet Gupta
Commit 97bc386fc12d "ARC: Add guard macro to uapi/asm/unistd.h" inhibited multiple inclusion of ARCH unistd.h. This however hosed the system since Generic syscall table generator relies on it being included twice, and in lack-of an empty table was emitted by C preprocessor. Fix that by allowing one exception to rule for the special case (just like Xtensa) Suggested-by: Chen Gang <gang.chen.5i5j@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

2013-11-25ARC: Add guard macro to uapi/asm/unistd.hVineet Gupta
Chen originally proposed this as "right thing to do" however I actually ran into this when building perf tools. Some of the utils include unistd.h as well as linux/unistd.h. Since -I includes kernel headers too, we end up including the ARC unistd.h twice, leading to redefinition nwarnings. ------------------>8------------------- CC bench/sched-pipe.o In file included from ~/kernel/arch/arc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h:21:0, from ~/kernel/include/uapi/linux/unistd.h:7, from bench/sched-pipe.c:24: ~/kernel/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:889:0: error: "__NR_fcntl64" redefined [-Werror] #define __NR_fcntl64 __NR3264_fcntl ^ In file included from ~/gnu/arc-linux-uclibc/sys-include/sys/syscall.h:24:0, from bench/../perf.h:112, from bench/sched-pipe.c:13: ~/gnu/arc-linux-uclibc/include/bits/sysnum.h:761:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition ------------------>8------------------- Verified that make headers_install works fine with this.

2013-11-06arc: Replace __get_cpu_var usesChristoph Lameter
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, u); int x = __get_cpu_var(y) Converts to int x = __this_cpu_read(y); 4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y); struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to memcpy(this_cpu_ptr(&x), y, sizeof(x)); 5. Assignment to a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y) __get_cpu_var(y) = x; Converts to this_cpu_write(y, x); 6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); __get_cpu_var(y)++ Converts to this_cpu_inc(y) Acked-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com>
2013-11-02ARC: Incorrect mm reference used in vmalloc fault handlerVineet Gupta
A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current task's "active_mm". ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm. A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm (for mm->pgd) The reasons it worked so far is amazing: 1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD. In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref. 2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d23d108bc "n_tty: Move buffers into n_tty_data" Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Cc: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #3.10 and 3.11 Cc: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2013-10-12ARC: Ignore ptrace SETREGSET request for synthetic register "stop_pc"Vineet Gupta
ARCompact TRAP_S insn used for breakpoints, commits before exception is taken (updating architectural PC). So ptregs->ret contains next-PC and not the breakpoint PC itself. This is different from other restartable exceptions such as TLB Miss where ptregs->ret has exact faulting PC. gdb needs to know exact-PC hence ARC ptrace GETREGSET provides for @stop_pc which returns ptregs->ret vs. EFA depending on the situation. However, writing stop_pc (SETREGSET request), which updates ptregs->ret doesn't makes sense stop_pc doesn't always correspond to that reg as described above. This was not an issue so far since user_regs->ret / user_regs->stop_pc had same value and both writing to ptregs->ret was OK, needless, but NOT broken, hence not observed. With gdb "jump", they diverge, and user_regs->ret updating ptregs is overwritten immediately with stop_pc, which this patch fixes.

2013-10-09of: remove HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPSRob Herring
HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS appears to always be needed except for sparc, but it is only used for /proc/device-teee and sparc does not enable /proc/device-tree. So this option is redundant. Remove the option and always enable it. This has the side effect of fixing /proc/device-tree on arches such as arm64 which failed to define this option.
