The problem with wake_idle() is that is doesn't respect things like
cpu_power, which means it doesn't deal well with SMT nor the recent
RT interaction.
To cure this, it needs to do what sched_balance_self() does, which
leads to the possibility of merging select_task_rq_fair() and
sched_balance_self().
Modify sched_balance_self() to:
- update_shares() when walking up the domain tree,
(it only called it for the top domain, but it should
have done this anyway), which allows us to remove
this ugly bit from try_to_wake_up().
- do wake_affine() on the smallest domain that contains
both this (the waking) and the prev (the wakee) cpu for
WAKE invocations.
Then use the top-down balance steps it had to replace wake_idle().
This leads to the dissapearance of SD_WAKE_BALANCE and
SD_WAKE_IDLE_FAR, with SD_WAKE_IDLE replaced with SD_BALANCE_WAKE.
SD_WAKE_AFFINE needs SD_BALANCE_WAKE to be effective.
Touch all topology bits to replace the old with new SD flags --
platforms might need re-tuning, enabling SD_BALANCE_WAKE
conditionally on a NUMA distance seems like a good additional
feature, magny-core and small nehalem systems would want this
enabled, systems with slow interconnects would not.

In order for SH7709 to fully support the varying clock modes, it needs to

Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring onto its parent. This
replaces the parent's session keyring. Because the COW credential code does
not permit one process to change another process's credentials directly, the
change is deferred until userspace next starts executing again. Normally this
will be after a wait*() syscall.
To support this, three new security hooks have been provided:
cred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in
the blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if
the process may replace its parent's session keyring.
The replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details
as its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and
the session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it.
Note that this requires alteration to each architecture's notify_resume path.
This has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of
which need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. This allows the
replacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace
execution.
This allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and
the VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to
alter the parent process's PAG membership. However, since kAFS doesn't use
PAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session
keyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed
the newpag flag.
This can be tested with the following program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <keyutils.h>
#define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT 18
#define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) == -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0)
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
key_serial_t keyring, key;
long ret;
keyring = keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]);
OSERROR(keyring, "keyctl_join_session_keyring");
key = add_key("user", "a", "b", 1, keyring);
OSERROR(key, "add_key");
ret = keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT);
OSERROR(ret, "KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT");
return 0;
}
Compiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like:
[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show
Session Keyring
-3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses
355907932 --alswrv 4043 -1 \_ keyring: _uid.4043

This implements support for NMI debugging that was shamelessly copied
from the avr32 port. A bit of special magic is needed in the interrupt
exception path given that the NMI exception handler is stubbed in to the
regular exception handling table despite being reported in INTEVT. So we
mangle the lookup and kick off an EXPEVT-style exception dispatch from
the INTEVT path for exceptions that do_IRQ() has no chance of handling.
As a result, we also drop the evt2irq() conversion from the do_IRQ() path
and just do it in assembly.

GCC does not issue unwind information for function epilogues.
Unfortunately we can catch a signal during an epilogue. The signal
handler writes the current context and signal return code onto the stack
overwriting previous contents. During unwinding, libgcc can try to
restore registers from the stack and restores corrupted ones. This can
lead to segmentation, misaligned access and sigbus faults.
For example, consider the following code:
mov.l r12,@-r15
mov.l r14,@-r15
sts.l pr,@-r15
mov r15,r14
<do stuff>
mov r14, r15
lds.l @r15+, pr
<<< SIGNAL HERE
mov.l @r15+, r14
mov.l @r15+, r12
rts
Unwind is aware that pr was pushed to stack in prolog, so tries to
restore it. Unfortunately it restores the last word of the signal
handler code placed on the stack by the kernel.
This patch tries to avoid the problem by adding a guard region on the
stack between where the function pushes data and where the signal handler
pushes its return code. We probably don't see this problem often because
exception handling unwinding in an epilogue only occurs due to a pthread
cancel signal. Also the kernel signal stack handler alignment of 8 bytes
could hide the occurance of this problem sometimes as the stack may not
be trampled at a particular required word.
This is not guaranteed to always work. It relies on a frame pointer
existing for the function (so it can get the correct sp value) which is
not always the case for the SH4.
Modifications will also be made to libgcc for the case where there is no
fp.

initialized correctly. This is a fix to bug 5727
b) behaviour for CONFIG_CPU_SH2A wasn't correct
c) the 'ignore address error' behaviour didn't update the PC, causing an
infinite loop.

This patch brings the SH4 misaligned trap handler in line with what
happens on ARM:
Add a /proc/cpu/alignment which can be read from to get alignment
trap statistics and written to to influence the behaviour of the
alignment trap handling. The value to write is a bitfield, which
has the following meaning: 1 warn, 2 fixup, 4 signal
In addition, we add a /proc/cpu/kernel_alignment, to enable or
disable warnings in case of kernel code causing alignment errors.

The Runtime PM patch for UIO driver implements coarse grained
dynamic power management for UIO devices. With that patch in
place we can get rid of the static clock configuration. Which
in turn makes it possible for cpuidle to enter deeper sleep.

With the Runtime PM driver changes in place, we must have
Runtime PM support in place. Otherwise there is no way to
enable clocks to the Runtime PM enabled hardware blocks.
This patch makes Runtime PM mandatory on SuperH Mobile.

The runtime PM for SH-Mobile code had platform_bus_notify() as __devinit,

This patch is V3 of the SuperH Mobile Runtime PM platform bus
implentation matching Rafael's Runtime PM v16.
The code gets invoked from the SuperH specific Runtime PM
platform bus functions that override the weak symbols for:
- platform_pm_runtime_suspend()
- platform_pm_runtime_resume()
- platform_pm_runtime_idle()
This Runtime PM implementation performs two levels of power
management. At the time of platform bus runtime suspend the
clock to the device is stopped instantly. Later on if all
devices within the power domain has their clocks stopped
then the device driver ->runtime_suspend() callbacks are
used to save hardware register state for each device.
Device driver ->runtime_suspend() calls are scheduled from
cpuidle context using platform_pm_runtime_suspend_idle().
When all devices have been fully suspended the processor
is allowed to enter deep sleep from cpuidle.
The runtime resume operation turns on clocks and also
restores registers if needed. It is worth noting that the
devices start in a suspended state and the device driver
is responsible for calling runtime resume before accessing
the actual hardware.
In this particular platform bus implementation runtime
resume is not allowed from interrupt context. Runtime
suspend is however allowed from interrupt context as
long as the synchronous functions are avoided.

This simplifies the unwinder trap handling, dropping the use of the
special trapa vector and simply piggybacking on top of the BUG support. A
new BUGFLAG_UNWINDER is added for flagging the unwinder fault, before
continuing on with regular BUG dispatch.

The 'end' member of struct dwarf_fde denotes one byte past the end of
the CFA instruction stream for an FDE. The value of 'end' was being
calcualted incorrectly, it was being set too high. This resulted in
dwarf_cfa_execute_insns() interpreting data past the end of valid
instructions, thus causing all sorts of weird crashes.

When CONFIG_DWARF_UNWINDER is enabled setup r14 in handle_interrupt, so

We can't assume that if we execute the unwinder code and the unwinder
was already running that it has faulted. Clearly two kernel threads can
invoke the unwinder at the same time and may be running simultaneously.
The previous approach used BUG() and BUG_ON() in the unwinder code to
detect whether the unwinder was incapable of unwinding the stack, and
that the next available unwinder should be used instead. A better
approach is to explicitly invoke a trap handler to switch unwinders when
the current unwinder cannot continue.

The handling of DW_CFA_val_offset ops was incorrectly using the
DWARF_REG_OFFSET flag but the register's value cannot be calculated
using the DWARF_REG_OFFSET method. Create a new flag to indicate that a
different method must be used to calculate the register's value even
though there is no implementation for DWARF_VAL_OFFSET yet; it's mainly
just a place holder.

Plug a memory leak in dwarf_unwinder_dump() where we didn't free the
memory that we had previously allocated for the DWARF frames and DWARF
registers.
Now is also a opportune time to implement our own mempool and kmem
cache. It's a good idea to have a certain number of frame and register
objects in reserve at all times, so that we are guaranteed to have our
allocation satisfied even when memory is scarce. Since we have pools to
allocate from we can implement the registers for each frame as a linked
list as opposed to a sparsely populated array. Whilst it's true that the
lookup time for a linked list is larger than for arrays, there's only
usually a maximum of 8 registers per frame. So the overhead isn't that
much of a concern.
