Chris Metcalf ce7f2a3967 arch/tile: make ptrace() work properly for TILE-Gx COMPAT mode
Previously, we tried to pass 64-bit arguments through the
"COMPAT" mode 32-bit syscall API, which turned out not to work
well.  Now we just use straight 32-bit arguments in COMPAT mode,
thus requiring individual registers to be read/written with
two syscalls.  Of course this is uncommon, since usually all
the registers are read or written at once.

The restructuring applies to all the tile platforms, but is
plausibly better than the original code in any case.

Chris Metcalf bf65e440e8 arch/tile: add Tilera's <arch/sim.h> header as an open-source header
This change adds one of the Tilera standard <arch> headers to the set
of headers shipped with Linux.  The <arch/sim.h> header provides
methods for programmatically interacting with the Tilera simulator.

The current <arch/sim.h> provides inline assembly for the _sim_syscall
function, so the declaration and definition previously provided
manually in Linux are no longer needed.  We now use the standard
sim_validate_lines_evicted() method from <arch/sim.h> rather than
rolling our own direct call to sim_syscall().

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Previously we were using -1023, which is fine for normal syscall

Chris Metcalf d929b6aeaa arch/tile: Use <asm-generic/syscalls.h>
With this change we now include <asm-generic/syscalls.h> into the "tile"
version of the header.  To take full advantage of the prototypes there,
we also change our naming convention for "struct pt_regs *" syscalls so
that, e.g., _sys_execve() is the "true" syscall entry, which sets the
appropriate register to point to the pt_regs before calling sys_execve().

While doing this I realized I no longer needed the fork and vfork
entry point stubs, since those functions aren't in the generic
syscall ABI, so I removed them as well.

Chris Metcalf ea44e06e79 arch/tile: remove dead code from intvec_32.S
This "bpt_code" instruction was killed off in our development line a while
ago (the actual definition of bpt_code that is used is in kernel/traps.c)
but I didn't push it for 2.6.36 because it seemed harmless and I didn't
want to try to push more than absolutely necessary.

However, we recently fixed a bug in our gcc that had been causing
"-gdwarf2" not to be passed to the assembler, and passing this flag causes
an erroneous assembler failure in the presence of code in a data section,
sometimes.  While we'd like to track down the bug in the assembler,
we'd also like to make sure 2.6.36 builds with the current toolchain,
so I'm removing this dead code as well.

Chris Metcalf 74fca9da09 arch/tile: Change struct sigcontext to be more useful
Rather than just using pt_regs, it now contains the actual saved
state explicitly, similar to pt_regs.  By doing it this way, we
provide a cleaner API for userspace (or equivalently, we avoid the
need for libc to provide its own definition of sigcontext).

While we're at it, move PT_FLAGS_xxx to where they are not visible
from userspace.  And always pass siginfo and mcontext to signal
handlers, even if they claim they don't need it, since sometimes
they actually try to use it anyway in practice.

David Howells d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

Chris Metcalf ba00376b0b arch/tile: extend syscall ABI to set r1 on return as well.
Until now, the tile architecture ABI for syscall return has just been
that r0 holds the return value, and an error is only signalled like it is
for kernel code, with a negative small number.

However, this means that in multiple places in userspace we end up writing
the same three-cycle idiom that tests for a small negative number for
error.  It seems cleaner to instead move that code into the kernel, and
set r1 to hold zero on success or errno on failure; previously, r1 was
just zeroed on return from the kernel (to avoid leaking kernel state).
This way a single conditional branch after the syscall is sufficient
to test for the failure case.  The number of cycles taken is the same,
but the error-checking code is in just one place, so total code size is
smaller, and random userspace syscall code is easier to understand.

First, the siginfo preamble wasn't quite right; we need to indicate

then for compat mode we need to pad differently, using only 3 ints.

Second, the C ABI requires a save area of two registers, not two
pointers, since in compat mode we have 64-bit registers all of which
we need to save, even though we only have 32-bit VAs.

We were using the same 5-sec minsec for the clocksource and sched_clock
that we were using for the clock_event_device.  For the clock_event_device
that's exactly right since it has a short maximum countdown time.
But for sched_clock we want to avoid wraparound when converting from
ticks to nsec over a much longer window, so we force a shift of 10.
And for clocksource it seems dodgy to use a 5-sec minsec as well, so we
copy some other platforms and force a shift of 22.

Chris Metcalf 0707ad30d1 arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.
This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
codebase tend to get tedious to read.  Rather than trying to tease
apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:

- sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
- sparse: Fix __user annotations.
- sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
- sparse: removing functions not actually used.
- checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
  also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
  - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
  - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.

In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
to this commit:

- Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
- Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
  some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
- Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

This network (the "UDN") connects all the cpus on the chip in a
wormhole-routed dynamic network.  Subrectangles of the chip can
be allocated by a "create" ioctl on /dev/hardwall, and then to access the
UDN in that rectangle, tasks must perform an "activate" ioctl on that
same file object after affinitizing themselves to a single cpu in
the region.  Sending a wormhole-routed message that tries to leave
that subrectangle causes all activated tasks to receive a SIGILL
(just as they would if they tried to access the UDN without first
activating themselves to a hardwall rectangle).

The original submission of this code to LKML had the driver
instantiated under /proc/tile/hardwall.  Now we just use a character
device for this, conventionally /dev/hardwall.  Some futures planning
for the TILE-Gx chip suggests that we may want to have other types of
devices that share the general model of "bind a task to a cpu, then
'activate' a file descriptor on a pseudo-device that gives access to
some hardware resource".  As such, we are using a device rather
than, for example, a syscall, to set up and activate this code.

As part of this change, the compat_ptr() declaration was fixed and used
to pass the compat_ioctl argument to the normal ioctl.  So far we limit
compat code to 2GB, so the difference between zero-extend and sign-extend
(the latter being correct, eventually) had been overlooked.

Chris Metcalf fb702b942b arch/tile: Enable more sophisticated IRQ model for 32-bit chips.
This model is based on the on-chip interrupt model used by the
TILE-Gx next-generation hardware, and interacts much more cleanly
with the Linux generic IRQ layer.

The change includes modifications to the Tilera hypervisor, which
are reflected in the hypervisor headers in arch/tile/include/arch/.

Chris Metcalf 139ef32b0e Revert adding some arch-specific signal syscalls to <linux/syscalls.h>.
It turns out there is some variance on the calling conventions for
these syscalls, and <asm-generic/syscalls.h> is already the mechanism
used to handle this.  Switch arch/tile over to using that mechanism and
tweak the calling conventions for a couple of tile syscalls to match
<asm-generic/syscalls.h>.

Chris Metcalf 867e359b97 arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.

This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
