This paves way for further simplifications. There's an overhead of 1 insn for the non-common case of interrupt taken from kernel mode. Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> -

* use artificial PUSH/POP contructs for CORE Reg save/restore to stack * use artificial PUSHAX/POPAX contructs for Auxiliary Space regs * macro'ize multiple copies of callee-reg-save/restore (SAVE_R13_TO_R24) * use BIC insn for inverse-and operation Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> -

This is trickier than prev two: * context switching code saves kernel mode callee regs in the format of struct callee_regs thus needs adjustment. This also reduces the height of topmost kernel stack frame by 1 word. * Since kernel stack unwinder is sensitive to height of topmost kernel stack frame, that needs a word of adjustment too. ptrace needs a bit of updating since pt_regs now diverges from user_regs_struct.

Historically, pt_regs would end at offset of 1 word from end of stack page. ----------------- -> START of page (task->stack) | | | thread_info | ----------------- | | ^ ~ ~ | ~ ~ | | | | | | <---- pt_regs used to END here ----------------- | 1 word GUTTER | ----------------- -> End of page (START of kernel stack) This required special "one-off" considerations in low level code. The root cause is very likely assumption of "empty" SP by the original ARC kernel hackers, despite ARC700 always been "full" SP. So finally RIP one word gutter !

orig_r8_IS_EXCPN and orig_r8_IS_BRKPT were same values due to a copy/paste error. Although it looks bad and is wrong, it really doesn't affect gdb working. orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is the one relevant to debugging (breakpoints), since it is used to provide EFA vs. ERET to a ptrace "stop_pc" request. So when gdb has inserted a breakpoint, orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is already set, and anything else (i.e. orig_r8_IS_EXCPN) becoming same as it, really doesn't hurt gdb. The corollary case, could be nasty but nobody uses the ptrace "stop_pc" request in that case Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

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.

There is a bit of hack/kludge right now where we disable preemption if a L2 (High prio) IRQ is taken while L1 (Low prio) is active. Need to revisit this Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> -

To avoid multiple syscall restarts (multiple signals) or no restart at all (sigreturn), we need just an extra bit of state "literally 1 bit" in struct pt_regs. orig_r8 is the best place to do this, however given the way it is encoded currently, we can't add anything simplistically. Current orig_r8: * syscalls -> 1 to NR_SYSCALLS * Exceptions -> NR_SYSCALLS + 1 * Break-point-> NR_SYSCALLS + 2 In new scheme it is a bit-field * lower short word contains the exact event type (and a new bit to represent restart semantics : if syscall was already / can't be restarted) * upper short word optionally containing the syscall num - needed by likes of tracehooks etc This patch only changes how orig_r8 is organised and nothing should change behaviourily.

Includes following fixes courtesy review by Al-Viro * Tracer poke to Callee-regs were lost Before going off into do_signal( ) we save the user-mode callee regs (as they are not saved by default as part of pt_regs). This is to make sure that that a Tracer (if tracing related signal) is able to do likes of PEEKUSR(callee-reg). However in return path we were simply discarding the user-mode callee regs, which would break a POKEUSR(callee-reg) from a tracer. * Issue related to multiple syscall restarts are addressed in next patch Signed-off-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: NJonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se>
