There is no "ARCH=tile" (just like there is no "ARCH=x86") so we need to pick a default configuration, either tilepro or tilegx, when users specify ARCH=tile.

This is because __builtin_clz(0) returns 64 for the "undefined" case of 0, since the builtin just does a right-shift 32 and "clz" instruction. So, use the alpha approach of casting to u32 and using __builtin_clzll(). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

The hardwall drain code was not properly implemented for tilegx, just tilepro, so you couldn't reliably restart an application that made use of the udn. In addition, the code was only applicable to the udn (user dynamic network). On tilegx there is a second user network that is available (the "idn"), and there is support for having I/O shims deliver user-level interrupts to applications ("ipi") which functions in a very similar way to the inter-core permissions used for udn/idn. So this change also generalizes the code from supporting just the udn to supports udn/idn/ipi on tilegx. By default we now use /dev/hardwall/{udn,idn,ipi} with separate minor numbers for the three devices. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new arch_make_huge_pte() method. The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry. One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument on the boot command line. A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of the page table. To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem. As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support, which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

The tile support for multiple-size huge pages requires tagging the hugetlb PTE with a "super" bit for PTEs that are multiples of the basic size of a pagetable span. To set that bit properly we need to tweak the PTe in make_huge_pte() based on the vma. This change provides the API for a subsequent tile-specific change to use.

We already had a syscall that did some dcache flushing, but it was not used in practice. Make it MIPS compatible instead so it can do both the DCACHE and ICACHE actions. We have code that wants to be able to use the ICACHE flush mode from userspace so this change enables that. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context() API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor. Clients can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they install a new context. In practice, the page size is fixed at kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every time a new page table is installed. The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables. For example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL. The various PFN routines have been eliminated and only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed in fixed 2KB "page" size). The page-table management macros are renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves. I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken (it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work correctly with other page sizes. Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with a conflicting page size. (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user. Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception internally. Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded" indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a "we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the following instruction. This is more efficient and gives us more compact code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do. The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser() (and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function). The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and copy_to_user_ll.

The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>

In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need to support this path in the kernel. (On tilepro we did implement that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.) In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical section, but this change cleans up a few things. The IRQ_ENABLE macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section. The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead of interrupt critical sections. And, the interrupt-entry code is changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after we have released the interrupt critical section.

Pull CMA and ARM DMA-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski: "These patches contain two major updates for DMA mapping subsystem (mainly for ARM architecture). First one is Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) which makes it possible for device drivers to allocate big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has booted. The main difference from the similar frameworks is the fact that CMA allows to transparently reuse the memory region reserved for the big chunk allocation as a system memory, so no memory is wasted when no big chunk is allocated. Once the alloc request is issued, the framework migrates system pages to create space for the required big chunk of physically contiguous memory. For more information one can refer to nice LWN articles: - 'A reworked contiguous memory allocator': http://lwn.net/Articles/447405/ - 'CMA and ARM': http://lwn.net/Articles/450286/ - 'A deep dive into CMA': http://lwn.net/Articles/486301/ - and the following thread with the patches and links to all previous versions: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/3/204 The main client for this new framework is ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The second part provides a complete redesign in ARM DMA-mapping subsystem. The core implementation has been changed to use common struct dma_map_ops based infrastructure with the recent updates for new dma attributes merged in v3.4-rc2. This allows to use more than one implementation of dma-mapping calls and change/select them on the struct device basis. The first client of this new infractructure is dmabounce implementation which has been completely cut out of the core, common code. The last patch of this redesign update introduces a new, experimental implementation of dma-mapping calls on top of generic IOMMU framework. This lets ARM sub-platform to transparently use IOMMU for DMA-mapping calls if one provides required IOMMU hardware. For more information please refer to the following thread: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg175729.html The last patch merges changes from both updates and provides a resolution for the conflicts which cannot be avoided when patches have been applied on the same files (mainly arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c)."

Compared to Rob Clark's RFC I've ditched the prepare/finish hooks and corresponding ioctls on the dma_buf file. The major reason for that is that many people seem to be under the impression that this is also for synchronization with outstanding asynchronous processsing. I'm pretty massively opposed to this because: - It boils down reinventing a new rather general-purpose userspace synchronization interface. If we look at things like futexes, this is hard to get right. - Furthermore a lot of kernel code has to interact with this synchronization primitive. This smells a look like the dri1 hw_lock, a horror show I prefer not to reinvent. - Even more fun is that multiple different subsystems would interact here, so we have plenty of opportunities to create funny deadlock scenarios. I think synchronization is a wholesale different problem from data sharing and should be tackled as an orthogonal problem. Now we could demand that prepare/finish may only ensure cache coherency (as Rob intended), but that runs up into the next problem: We not only need mmap support to facilitate sw-only processing nodes in a pipeline (without jumping through hoops by importing the dma_buf into some sw-access only importer), which allows for a nicer ION->dma-buf upgrade path for existing Android userspace. We also need mmap support for existing importing subsystems to support existing userspace libraries. And a loot of these subsystems are expected to export coherent userspace mappings. So prepare/finish can only ever be optional and the exporter /needs/ to support coherent mappings. Given that mmap access is always somewhat fallback-y in nature I've decided to drop this optimization, instead of just making it optional. If we demonstrate a clear need for this, supported by benchmark results, we can always add it in again later as an optional extension. Other differences compared to Rob's RFC is the above mentioned support for mapping a dma-buf through facilities provided by the importer. Which results in mmap support no longer being optional. Note that this dma-buf mmap patch does _not_ support every possible insanity an existing subsystem could pull of with mmap: Because it does not allow to intercept pagefaults and shoot down ptes importing subsystems can't add some magic of their own at these points (e.g. to automatically synchronize with outstanding rendering or set up some special resources). I've done a cursory read through a few mmap implementions of various subsytems and I'm hopeful that we can avoid this (and the complexity it'd bring with it). Additonally I've extended the documentation a bit to explain the hows and whys of this mmap extension. In case we ever want to add support for explicitly cache maneged userspace mmap with a prepare/finish ioctl pair, we could specify that userspace needs to mmap a different part of the dma_buf, e.g. the range starting at dma_buf->size up to dma_buf->size*2. This works because the size of a dma_buf is invariant over it's lifetime. The exporter would obviously need to fall back to coherent mappings for both ranges if a legacy clients maps the coherent range and the architecture cannot suppor conflicting caching policies. Also, this would obviously be optional and userspace needs to be able to fall back to coherent mappings. v2: - Spelling fixes from Rob Clark. - Compile fix for !DMA_BUF from Rob Clark. - Extend commit message to explain how explicitly cache managed mmap support could be added later. - Extend the documentation with implementations notes for exporters that need to manually fake coherency. v3: - dma_buf pointer initialization goof-up noticed by Rebecca Schultz Zavin.

I suspect the kvm_para.h resolution ends up doing the "do I have cpuid" check effectively twice (it was done differently in two different commits), but better safe than sorry ;) * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (125 commits) KVM: make asm-generic/kvm_para.h have an ifdef __KERNEL__ block KVM: s390: onereg for timer related registers KVM: s390: epoch difference and TOD programmable field KVM: s390: KVM_GET/SET_ONEREG for s390 KVM: s390: add capability indicating COW support KVM: Fix mmu_reload() clash with nested vmx event injection KVM: MMU: Don't use RCU for lockless shadow walking KVM: VMX: Optimize %ds, %es reload KVM: VMX: Fix %ds/%es clobber KVM: x86 emulator: convert bsf/bsr instructions to emulate_2op_SrcV_nobyte() KVM: VMX: unlike vmcs on fail path KVM: PPC: Emulator: clean up SPR reads and writes KVM: PPC: Emulator: clean up instruction parsing kvm/powerpc: Add new ioctl to retreive server MMU infos kvm/book3s: Make kernel emulated H_PUT_TCE available for "PR" KVM KVM: PPC: bookehv: Fix r8/r13 storing in level exception handler KVM: PPC: Book3S: Enable IRQs during exit handling KVM: PPC: Fix PR KVM on POWER7 bare metal KVM: PPC: Fix stbux emulation KVM: PPC: bookehv: Use lwz/stw instead of PPC_LL/PPC_STL for 32-bit fields ...

Pull sparc changes from David S. Miller: "This has the generic strncpy_from_user() implementation architectures can now use, which we've been developing on linux-arch over the past few days. For good measure I ran both a 32-bit and a 64-bit glibc testsuite run, and the latter of which pointed out an adjustment I needed to make to sparc's user_addr_max() definition. Linus, you were right, STACK_TOP was not the right thing to use, even on sparc itself :-) From Sam Ravnborg, we have a conversion of sparc32 over to the common alloc_thread_info_node(), since the aspect which originally blocked our doing so (sun4c) has been removed." Fix up trivial arch/sparc/Kconfig and lib/Makefile conflicts. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc: sparc: Fix user_addr_max() definition. lib: Sparc's strncpy_from_user is generic enough, move under lib/ kernel: Move REPEAT_BYTE definition into linux/kernel.h sparc: Increase portability of strncpy_from_user() implementation. sparc: Optimize strncpy_from_user() zero byte search. sparc: Add full proper error handling to strncpy_from_user(). sparc32: use the common implementation of alloc_thread_info_node()

Pull more relocation fixes from Peter Anvin: "These are additional symbols that have been found to either be absolute or look like they might end up being absolute on one version of GNU ld or another. Unfortunately we have since that a different GNU ld version, 2.21, can generate bogus absolute symbols; again, this would have caused a malfunctioning kernel on x86-32 if relocated. The relocs.c changes changed silent corruption to a build time error. It is worth noting that if the various barrier symbols we use were more consistent in the namespace used this probably could be reduced to a single regexp; if nothing else it looks like there is migration toward a common __(start|stop)___.* namespace." * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, relocs: Add jiffies and jiffies_64 to the relative whitelist x86-32, relocs: Whitelist more symbols for ld bug workaround

Pull GPIO driver changes from Grant Likely: "Lots of gpio changes, both to core code and drivers. Changes do touch architecture code to remove the need for separate arm/gpio.h includes in most architectures. Some new drivers are added, and a number of gpio drivers are converted to use irq_domains for gpio inputs used as interrupts. Device tree support has been amended to allow multiple gpio_chips to use the same device tree node. Remaining changes are primarily bug fixes." * tag 'gpio-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6: (33 commits) gpio/generic: initialize basic_mmio_gpio shadow variables properly gpiolib: Remove 'const' from data argument of gpiochip_find() gpio/rc5t583: add gpio driver for RICOH PMIC RC5T583 gpiolib: quiet gpiochip_add boot message noise gpio: mpc8xxx: Prevent NULL pointer deref in demux handler gpio/lpc32xx: Add device tree support gpio: Adjust of_xlate API to support multiple GPIO chips gpiolib: Implement devm_gpio_request_one() gpio-mcp23s08: dbg_show: fix pullup configuration display Add support for TCA6424A gpio/omap: (re)fix wakeups on level-triggered GPIOs gpio/omap: fix broken context restore for non-OFF mode transitions gpio/omap: fix missing check in *_runtime_suspend() gpio/omap: remove cpu_is_omapxxxx() checks from *_runtime_resume() gpio/omap: remove suspend/resume callbacks gpio/omap: remove retrigger variable in gpio_irq_handler gpio/omap: remove saved_wakeup field from struct gpio_bank gpio/omap: remove suspend_wakeup field from struct gpio_bank gpio/omap: remove saved_fallingdetect, saved_risingdetect gpio/omap: remove virtual_irq_start variable ...
