arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S has contained a comment suggesting that asm/hardware.h and asm/arch/irqs.h should be moved into the asm/arch/entry-macro.S include. So move the includes to these two files as required. Add missing includes (asm/hardware.h, asm/io.h) to asm/arch/system.h includes which use those facilities, and remove asm/io.h from kernel/process.c. Remove other unnecessary includes from arch/arm/kernel, arch/arm/mm and arch/arm/mach-footbridge. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

We are coding the kernel link address into the makefiles, which is invisibly dependent on PAGE_OFFSET. If PAGE_OFFSET is changed, the makefiles also need to be changed. Make adjustments such that the makefiles encode just the offset from PAGE_OFFSET for the kernel link address, and use PAGE_OFFSET in the linker scripts directly.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Strictly speaking, the NPTL kernel helpers are required for pre ARMv6 only. They are available on ARMv6+ as well for obvious compatibility reasons. However there are cases where extra memory barriers are needed when using an SMP ARMv6 machine but not on pre-ARMv6. This patch adds a memory barrier kernel helper that glibc can use as needed for pre-ARMv6 binaries to be forward compatible with an SMP kernel on ARMv6, as well as the necessary dmb instructions to the cmpxchg helper.

Rather than providing more wrappers for 6-arg syscalls, arrange for them to be supported as standard. This just means that we always store the 6th argument on the stack, rather than in the wrappers. This means we eliminate the wrappers for: * sys_futex * sys_arm_fadvise64_64 * sys_mbind * sys_ipc Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Patch from Nikola Valerjev Single stepping an application using ptrace() fails over ARM instructions BX and BLX. Steps to reproduce: Compile and link the following files main.c ----- void foo(); int main() { foo(); return 0; } foo.s ----- .text .globl foo foo: BX LR Using ptrace() functionality, run to main(), and start singlestepping. Singlestep over \"BX LR\" instruction won\'t transfer the control back to main, but run the code to completion. This problems seems to be in the function get_branch_address() in arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c. The function doesn\'t seem to recognize BX and BLX instructions as branches. BX and BLX instructions can be used to convert from ARM to Thumb mode if the target address has the low bit set. However, they are also perfectly legal in the ARM only mode. Although other things in the kernel seem to indicate that only ARM mode is accepted (and not Thumb), many compilers will generate BX and BLX instructions even when generating ARM only code.

Patch from Daniel Jacobowitz After delivering a signal (creating its stack frame) we must check for additional pending unblocked signals before returning to userspace. Otherwise signals may be delayed past the next syscall or reschedule. Once that was fixed it became obvious that the ARM signal mask manipulation was broken. It was a little bit broken before the recent SA_NODEFER changes, and then very broken after them. We must block the requested signals before starting the handler or the same signal can be delivered again before the handler even gets a chance to run.

Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce confusion, and make their semantics rigid. Improves efficiency of resched_task and some cpu_idle routines. * In resched_task: - TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held, and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe. - If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off. - If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required. - If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI. Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of POLLING_NRFLAG. * In idle routines: - Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer (IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet. - Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching to the idle thread. - Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into a halt requiring interrupt wakeup. Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling the idle task. POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled. Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()). How did it ever work before? Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted. We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined. After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead. By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most architectures. This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as arch_ptrace. Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them. They continue to keep their implementations. For sh64 I had to add a sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call. For um I removed an ifdefed SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL block, but SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL isn't defined anywhere in the tree.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

Prepare arm for the split page_table_lock: three issues. Signal handling's preserve and restore of iwmmxt context currently involves reading and writing that context to and from user space, while holding page_table_lock to secure the user page(s) against kswapd. If we split the lock, then the structure might span two pages, secured by to read into and write from a kernel stack buffer, copying that out and in without locking (the structure is 160 bytes in size, and here we're near the top of the kernel stack). Or would the overhead be noticeable? arm_syscall's cmpxchg emulation use pte_offset_map_lock, instead of pte_offset_map and mm-wide page_table_lock; and strictly, it should now also take mmap_sem before descending to pmd, to guard against another thread munmapping, and the page table pulled out beneath this thread. Updated two comments in fault-armv.c. adjust_pte is interesting, since its modification of a pte in one part of the mm depends on the lock held when calling update_mmu_cache for a pte in some other part of that mm. This can't be done with a split page_table_lock (and we've already taken the lowest lock in the hierarchy here): so we'll have to disable split on arm, unless CONFIG_CPU_CACHE_VIPT to ensures adjust_pte never used.
