In current kernel wide source code, except other architectures, only
s390 scsi drivers use atomic_clear_mask(), and arm/arm64 need not
support s390 drivers.
So remove atomic_clear_mask() from "arm[64]/include/asm/atomic.h".

in atomic_cmpxchg().
For atomic_cmpxchg(), the type of 'oldval' need be 'int' to match the
type of "*ptr" (used by 'ldrex' instruction) and 'old' (used by 'teq'
instruction).

atomic* value is signed value, and atomic* functions need also process
signed value (parameter value, and return value), so 32-bit arm need
use 'long long' instead of 'u64'.
After replacement, it will also fix a bug for atomic64_add_negative():
"u64 is never less than 0".
The modifications are:
in vim, use "1,% s/\<u64\>/long long/g" command.
remove '__aligned(8)' which is useless for 64-bit.
be sure of 80 column limitation after replacement.

If we're running a kernel compiled with SMP_ON_UP=y and the
hardware only supports UP operation there isn't any
smp_cross_call function assigned. Unfortunately, we call
smp_cross_call() unconditionally in arch_irq_work_raise() and
crash the kernel on UP devices. Check to make sure we're running
on an SMP device before calling smp_cross_call() here.

By default, IRQ work is run from the tick interrupt (see
irq_work_run() in update_process_times()). When we're in full
NOHZ mode, restarting the tick requires the use of IRQ work and
if the only place we run IRQ work is in the tick interrupt we
have an unbreakable cycle. Implement arch_irq_work_raise() via
self IPIs to break this cycle and get the tick started again.
Note that we implement this via IPIs which are only available on
SMP builds. This shouldn't be a problem because full NOHZ is only
supported on SMP builds anyway.

CPU hotplug and kexec rely on smp_ops.cpu_kill(), which is supposed
to wait for the CPU to park or power down, and perform the last
rites (such as disabling clocks etc., where the platform doesn't do
this automatically).
kexec in particular is unsafe without performing this
synchronisation to park secondaries. Without it, the secondaries
might not be parked when kexec trashes the kernel.
There is no generic way to do this synchronisation, so a new mcpm
platform_ops method power_down_finish() is added by this patch.
The new method is mandatory. A platform which provides no way to
detect when CPUs are parked is likely broken.

This is the ARM part of Christoph's patchset cleaning up the various
uses of __get_cpu_var across the tree.
The idea is to convert __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 calculations are avoided and fewer
registers are used when code is generated.

The memory pinning code in uaccess_with_memcpy.c does not check
for HugeTLB or THP pmds, and will enter an infinite loop should
a __copy_to_user or __clear_user occur against a huge page.
This patch adds detection code for huge pages to pin_page_for_write.
As this code can be executed in a fast path it refers to the actual
pmds rather than the vma. If a HugeTLB or THP is found (they have
the same pmd representation on ARM), the page table spinlock is
taken to prevent modification whilst the page is pinned.
On ARM, huge pages are only represented as pmds, thus no huge pud
checks are performed. (For huge puds one would lock the page table
in a similar manner as in the pmd case).
Two helper functions are introduced; pmd_thp_or_huge will check
whether or not a page is huge or transparent huge (which have the
same pmd layout on ARM), and pmd_hugewillfault will detect whether
or not a page fault will occur on write to the page.
Running the following test (with the chunking from read_zero
removed):
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=10M count=1024
Gave: 2.3 GB/s backed by normal pages,
2.9 GB/s backed by huge pages,
5.1 GB/s backed by huge pages, with page mask=HPAGE_MASK.
After some discussion, it was decided not to adopt the HPAGE_MASK,
as this would have a significant detrimental effect on the overall
system latency due to page_table_lock being held for too long.
This could be revisited if split huge page locks are adopted.

great for code re-use, there is a case for barrier-less cmpxchg where it

lockrefs).
This patch introduces a 64-bit cmpxchg implementation specifically

The SA1100 was implementing its own variants of gpio_get_value()
and gpio_set_value() and only selectively falling back to
gpiolib for extended (EGPIO) handling. However the driver in
gpio/gpio-sa1100.c already handles the same functionality for
these lines, yet remain unused.
The only upside would be things like a timing-critical hotpath
on bit-banged GPIO, but that kind of things does not seem to
happen on these GPIOs, so it is not worth having the extra
complexity.
Tested with some buttons on the Compaq iPAQ H3630.

When removing the complex GPIO interface from the SA1100 machines,
we also removed the implicit #includes for a few header files
that was included by <linux/gpio.h> thru <mach/gpio.h>, causing
a compile warning on the simpad boardfile, as <asm/irq.h> was no
longer #included, as follows:
./../arch/arm/include/asm/irq.h:9:0: warning: "NR_IRQS" redefined
[enabled by default]
#define NR_IRQS NR_IRQS_LEGACY
^
In file included from ../../arch/arm/mach-sa1100/simpad.c:29:0:
../../arch/arm/mach-sa1100/include/mach/irqs.h:87:0: note: this is the
location of the previous definition
#define NR_IRQS (IRQ_BOARD_START + NR_IRQS_LOCOMO)
This resolves the problem by explicitly including <asm/irq.h>
into the simpad boardfile.

Commit 'f52bb722547f43caeaecbcc62db9f3c3b80ead9b'
Author: Sricharan R <r.sricharan@ti.com>
ARM: mm: Correct virt_to_phys patching for 64 bit physical addresses
introduced a __ARMEB__ macro usage in a new place, but missed the second
underscore. So correcting it here.
Also a explicit .align keyword is needed for the label with .long
data-type to be aligned on the 4 byte boundary. Otherwise this can
cause problem for thumb2 build. So adding it here.

Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were
not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the
kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g.
J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened
when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted.
In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial:
During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch
CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called.
It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and
one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task
thread info pointer.
Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been
detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for
%cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly
turned zero after the firmware call.
So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes
became clear:
- On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this
problem.
- Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task
thread info pointer was below 4GB.
- Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because
the upper 32bit were zero anyay.
- Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread
info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary.
Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register
before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

The result of the store-clock-fast (STCKF) instruction is a bit fuzzy.
It can happen that the value stored on one CPU is smaller than the value
stored on another CPU, although the order of the stores is the other
way around. This can cause deltas of get_tod_clock() values to become
negative when they should not be.
We need to be more careful with store-clock-fast, this patch partially
reverts git commit e4b7b4238e666682555461fa52eecd74652f36bb "time:
always use stckf instead of stck if available". The get_tod_clock()
function now uses the store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction.
get_tod_clock_fast() can be used if the fuzziness of store-clock-fast
is acceptable e.g. for wait loops local to a CPU.

In order for ASID macro to be used as expression passed to
inline asm as 'r' operand it needs to give 32 bit unsigned result,
not unsigned 64bit expression.
Otherwise when 64bit ASID is passed to inline assembler statement
as 'r' operand (32bit) compiler behavior is not well specified.
For example when __flush_tlb_mm function compiled in big endian
case, and ASID is passed to tlb_op macro directly, 0 will be passed
as 'mcr 15, 0, r4, cr8, cr3, {2}' argument in r4, unless ASID
macro changed to produce 32 bit result.

In case of BE8 kernel data is in BE order whereas code stays in LE
order. Move sigreturn_codes to separate .S file and use proper
assembler mnemonics for these code snippets. In this case compiler
will take care of proper instructions byteswaps for BE8 case.
Change assumes that sufficiently Thumb-capable tools are used to
build kernel.
Problem was discovered during ltp testing of BE system: all rt_sig*
tests failed. Tested against the same tests in both BE and LE modes.
