When the kernel crashkernel parameter is specified with just a size, we are supposed to allocate a region from RAM to store the crashkernel. However, ARM merely reserves physical address zero with no checking that there is even RAM there. Fix this by lifting similar code from x86, importing it to ARM with the ARM specific parameters added. In the absence of any platform specific information, we allocate the crashkernel region from the first 512MB of physical memory. Update the kdump documentation to reflect this change.

It was reported that a kernel with CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_IDIV=y stopped booting when compiled with the upcoming gcc 6. Turns out that turning a function address into a writable array is undefined and gcc 6 decided it was OK to omit the store to the first word of the function while still preserving the store to the second word. Even though gcc 6 is now fixed to behave more coherently, it is a mystery that gcc 4 and gcc 5 actually produce wanted code in the kernel. And in fact the reduced test case to illustrate the issue does indeed break with gcc < 6 as well. In any case, let's guard the kernel against undefined compiler behavior by hiding the nature of the array location as suggested by gcc developers.

The ARM compiler inserts calls to __aeabi_idiv() and __aeabi_uidiv() when it needs to perform division on signed and unsigned integers. If a processor has support for the sdiv and udiv instructions, the kernel may overwrite the beginning of those functions with those instructions and a "bx lr" to get better performance. To ensure that those functions are aligned to a 32-bit word for easier patching (which might not always be the case in Thumb mode) and that the two patched instructions end up in the same cache line, a 8-byte alignment is enforced when ARM_PATCH_IDIV is selected. This was heavily inspired by a previous patch from Stephen Boyd.

Add early fixmap support, initially to support permanent, fixed mapping support for early console. A temporary, early pte is created which is migrated to a permanent mapping in paging_init. This is also needed since the attributes may change as the memory types are initialized. The 3MiB range of fixmap spans two pte tables, but currently only one pte is created for early fixmap support. Re-add FIX_KMAP_BEGIN to the index calculation in highmem.c since the index for kmap does not start at zero anymore.

Now that the common PSCI client code has been factored out to drivers/firmware, and made safe for 32-bit use, move the 32-bit ARM code over to it. This results in a moderate reduction of duplicated lines, and will prevent further duplication as the PSCI client code is updated for PSCI 1.0 and beyond. The two legacy platform users of the PSCI invocation code are updated to account for interface changes. In both cases the power state parameter (which is constant) is now generated using macros, so that the pack/unpack logic can be killed in preparation for PSCI 1.0 power state changes.

Writes to /sys/.../cpuX/online fail if we determine the platform doesn't support hotplug for that CPU. Furthermore, if the cpu_die op isn't specified the system hangs when we try to offline a CPU and it comes right back online unexpectedly. Let's figure this stuff out before we make the sysfs nodes so that the online file doesn't even exist if it isn't (at least sometimes) possible to hotplug the CPU. Add a new 'cpu_can_disable' op and repoint all 'cpu_disable' implementations at it because all implementers use the op to indicate if a CPU can be hotplugged or not in a static fashion. With PSCI we may need to add a 'cpu_disable' op so that the secure OS can be migrated off the CPU we're trying to hotplug. In this case, the 'cpu_can_disable' op will indicate that all CPUs are hotpluggable by returning true, but the 'cpu_disable' op will make a PSCI migration call and occasionally fail, denying the hotplug of a CPU. This shouldn't be any worse than x86 where we may indicate that all CPUs are hotpluggable but occasionally we can't offline a CPU due to check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() failing to find a CPU to move vectors to.

This default handler allows concepts that on x86 would be handled using NMIs to be realized on ARM. Credit: This patch is a near complete re-write of a patch originally provided by Anton Vorontsov.

memblock is now fully integrated into the kernel and is the prefered method for tracking memory. Rather than reinvent the wheel with meminfo, migrate to using memblock directly instead of meminfo as an intermediate.

Rather than reading the cr_alignment variable, use get_cr() to read directly from the hardware instead. We have two places where this occurs, neither of them are performance critical. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

This enables AT_HWCAP2 for ARM.

Commit ad6492b8 added much needed memblock_virt_alloc_low() and further commit 07bacb38 {memblock, bootmem: restore goal for alloc_low} fixed the issue with low memory limit thanks to Yinghai. But even after all these fixes, there is still one case where the limit check done with ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT for low memory fails. Russell pointed out the issue with 32 bit LPAE machines in below thread. https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/28/364 Since on some LPAE machines where memory start address is beyond 4GB, the low memory marker in memblock will be set to default ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT which is wrong. We can fix this by letting architectures set the ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT using another export similar to memblock_set_current_limit() but am not sure whether its worth the trouble. Tell me if you think otherwise. Rather am just trying to fix that one broken case using memblock_virt_alloc() in setup code since the memblock.current_limit is updated appropriately makes it work on all ARM 32 bit machines.

The new memblock_virt APIs are used to replaced old bootmem API. We need to allocate page below 4G for swiotlb. That should fix regression on Andrew's system that is using swiotlb.
