vaddr used to index the cache was clipped from the wrong end, and thus would potentially fail to flush the correct lines. The problem was dorment for so long because up until the recent optimizations it was only used for ptrace break-point only flushes. Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

flush_dcache_page( ) is MM hook to ensure that a page has consistent views between kernel and userspace. Thus it is called when * kernel writes to a page which at some later point could get mapped to userspace (so kernel mapping needs to be flushed-n-inv) * kernel is about to read from a page with possible userspace mappings (so userspace mappings needs to be made coherent with kernel ones) However for Non aliasing VIPT dcache, any userspace mapping will always be congruent to kernel mapping. Thus d-cache need need not be flushed at all (or delayed indefinitely). The only reason it does need to be flushed is when mapping code pages. Since icache doesn't snoop dcache, those dirty dcache lines need to be written back to memory and icache line invalidated so that icache lines fetch will get the right data. Decent gains on LMBench fork/exec/sh and File I/O micro-benchmarks.

This change continues the theme from prev commit - this time icache handling for kernel's own code modification (vmalloc: loadable modules, breakpoints for kprobes/kgdb...) flush_icache_range() calls the CDU icache helper with vaddr to enable exact line invalidate. For a true kernel-virtual mapping, the vaddr is actually virtual hence valid as index into cache. For kprobes breakpoint however, the vaddr arg is actually paddr - since that's how normal kernel is mapped in ARC memory map. This implies that CDU will use the same addr for indexing as for tag match - which is fine since kernel code would only have that "implicit" mapping and none other. This should speed up module loading significantly - specially on default ARC700 icache configurations (32k) which alias. Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

ARC icache doesn't snoop dcache thus executable pages need to be made coherent before mapping into userspace in flush_icache_page(). However ARC700 CDU (hardware cache flush module) requires both vaddr (index in cache) as well as paddr (tag match) to correctly identify a line in the VIPT cache. A typical ARC700 SoC has aliasing icache, thus the paddr only based flush_icache_page() API couldn't be implemented efficiently. It had to loop thru all possible alias indexes and perform the invalidate operation (ofcourse the cache op would only succeed at the index(es) where tag matches - typically only 1, but the cost of visiting all the cache-bins needs to paid nevertheless). Turns out however that the vaddr (along with paddr) is available in update_mmu_cache() hence better suits ARC icache flush semantics. With both vaddr+paddr, exactly one flush operation per line is done. Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Implement ioremap_prot() to allow mapping IO memory with variable protection via TLB. Implementing this allows the /dev/mem driver to use its generic access() VMA callback, which in turn allows ptrace to examine data in memory mapped regions mapped via /dev/mem, such as Arc DCCM. The end result is that it is possible to examine values of variables placed into DCCM in user space programs via GDB.

ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions. ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This includes: -Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI) -Cache coherency -load-locked/store-conditional ... The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler prologues to keep them re-entrant. Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012). Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

Arnd in his review pointed out that arch Kconfig organisation has several deficiencies: * Build time entries for things which can be runtime extracted from DT (e.g. SDRAM size, core clk frequency..) * Not multi-platform-image-build friendly (choice .. endchoice constructs) * cpu variants support (750/770) is exclusive. The first 2 have been fixed in subsequent patches. Due to the nature of the 750 and 770, it is not possible to build for both together, w/o special runtime glue code which would hurt performance.
