Marc Zyngier c625f76a99 clocksource / ACPI: Add probing infrastructure for ACPI-based clocksources
DT enjoys a rather nice probing infrastructure for clocksources,
while ACPI is so far stuck into a very distant past.

This patch introduces a declarative API, allowing clocksources
to be self-contained and be called when parsing the GTDT table.

Marc Zyngier e647b53227 ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure
IRQ controllers and timers are the two types of device the kernel
requires before being able to use the device driver model.

ACPI so far lacks a proper probing infrastructure similar to the one
we have with DT, where we're able to declare IRQ chips and
clocksources inside the driver code, and let the core code pick it up
and call us back on a match. This leads to all kind of really ugly
hacks all over the arm64 code and even in the ACPI layer.

In order to allow some basic probing based on the ACPI tables,
introduce "struct acpi_probe_entry" which contains just enough
data and callbacks to match a table, an optional subtable, and
call a probe function. A driver can, at build time, register itself
and expect being called if the right entry exists in the ACPI
table.

A acpi_probe_device_table() is provided, taking an identifier for
a set of acpi_prove_entries, and iterating over the registered
entries.

Andi Kleen 9bebe9e5b0 kbuild: Fix .text.unlikely placement
When building a kernel with .text.unlikely text the unlikely text for
each translation unit was put next to the main .text code in the
final vmlinux.

The problem is that the linker doesn't allow more specific submatches
of a section name in a different linker script statement after the
main match.

So we need to move them all into one line. With that change
.text.unlikely is at the end of everything again.

I also moved .text.hot into the same statement though, even though
that's not strictly needed.

Linus Torvalds 41d5e08ea8 TTY/Serial patches for 4.1-rc1
Here's the big tty/serial driver update for 4.1-rc1.
 
 It was delayed for a bit due to some questions surrounding some of the
 console command line parsing changes that are in here.  There's still
 one tiny regression for people who were previously putting multiple
 console command lines and expecting them all to be ignored for some odd
 reason, but Peter is working on fixing that.  If not, I'll send a revert
 for the offending patch, but I have faith that Peter can address it.
 
 Other than the console work here, there's the usual serial driver
 updates and changes, and a buch of 8250 reworks to try to make that
 driver easier to maintain over time, and have it support more devices in
 the future.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while.

Linus Torvalds bb0fd7ab09 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new
  features.

  Fixes:

   - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.

   - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations

   - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
     primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
     visible on SMP builds.

   - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
     where it corrupts registers.  Found by folk getting Linux running
     on their cameras.

   - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
     hot-unplug to work.

  Features:

   - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
     separately from relocation cases we don't handle.

   - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
     hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
     existing broken interface.)

   - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.

   - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.

   - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.

   - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
     memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
     mask and the implications of changing it.

   - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
     kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.

   - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
     have never worked in the past on these CPUs.

   - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
     format (hopefully without userspace breaking...  let's hope that if
     it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)

   - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.

   - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
     flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
     errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs.  This complements
     the Versatile Express fix above.

   - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8
     CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
     errata is enabled.  Also update the help text to indicate that all
     r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.

   - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
     the information which we were already reporting.

   - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
     at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
     to return immediately, without any wait.  Using such a slow timer
     is silly.

   - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the
     ARM architected timer.

   - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units"

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 0c564a538a tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values
Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.

For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:

 __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
    { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
    { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
    { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
    { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })

Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.

With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:

By adding:

 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);

 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
 __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
    { 0, "flush on task switch" },
    { 1, "remote shootdown" },
    { 2, "local shootdown" },
    { 3, "local mm shootdown" })

The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

Ard Biesheuvel 779c88c94c ARM: 8321/1: asm-generic: introduce .text.fixup input section
This introduces a new .text.fixup input section that gets emitted
together with the .text section for each input object file.

Note that

  *(.text)
  *(.text.fixup)

is not the same as

  *(.text .text.fixup)

and we are looking for the latter, to ensure that fixup snippets that
are assembled into a separate section in the object file do not end
up out of range for the relative branch instructions it contains if
the .text section itself grows very large.

This helps prevent linker failures on large ARM kernels.

Peter Hurley 470ca0de69 serial: earlycon: Enable earlycon without command line param
Earlycon matching can only be triggered if 'earlycon=...' has been
specified on the kernel command line. To workaround this limitation
requires tight coupling between arches and specific serial drivers
in order to start an earlycon. Devicetree avoids this limitation
with a link table that contains the required data to match earlycons.

Mirror this approach for earlycon match by name. Re-purpose
EARLYCON_DECLARE to generate a table entry which associates name with
setup() function. Re-purpose setup_earlycon() to scan this table for
an earlycon match, which is registered if found.

Declare one "earlycon" early_param, which calls setup_earlycon().

This design allows setup_earlycon() to be called directly with a
param string (as if 'earlycon=...' had been set on the command line).
Re-registration (either directly or by early_param) is prevented.

Daniel Lezcano 449e056c76 ARM: cpuidle: Add a cpuidle ops structure to be used for DT
The current state of the different cpuidle drivers is the different PM
operations are passed via the platform_data using the platform driver
paradigm.

This approach allowed to split the low level PM code from the arch specific
and the generic cpuidle code.

Unfortunately there are complaints about this approach as, in the context of the
single kernel image, we have multiple drivers loaded in memory for nothing and
the platform driver is not adequate for cpuidle.

This patch provides a common interface via cpuidle ops for all new cpuidle
driver and a definition for the device tree.

It will allow with the next patches to a have a common definition with ARM64
and share the same cpuidle driver.

The code is optimized to use the __init section intensively in order to reduce
the memory footprint after the driver is initialized and unify the function
names with ARM64.

image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end
and do_ctors() will call them on start up.  For modules we merge
.init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array.  Module code properly
handles constructors in .init_array section.

Will Deacon 1cd076bf67 iommu: provide early initialisation hook for IOMMU drivers
IOMMU drivers must be initialised before any of their upstream devices,
otherwise the relevant iommu_ops won't be configured for the bus in
question. To solve this, a number of IOMMU drivers use initcalls to
initialise the driver before anything has a chance to be probed.

Whilst this solves the immediate problem, it leaves the job of probing
the IOMMU completely separate from the iommu_ops to configure the IOMMU,
which are called on a per-bus basis and require the driver to figure out
exactly which instance of the IOMMU is being requested. In particular,
the add_device callback simply passes a struct device to the driver,
which then has to parse firmware tables or probe buses to identify the
relevant IOMMU instance.

This patch takes the first step in addressing this problem by adding an
early initialisation pass for IOMMU drivers, giving them the ability to
store some per-instance data in their iommu_ops structure and store that
in their of_node. This can later be used when parsing OF masters to
identify the IOMMU instance in question.

Zhengyu He 330d282216 core: fix typo in percpu read_mostly section
This fixes a typo that named the read_mostly section of percpu as
readmostly. It works fine with SMP because the linker script specifies
.data..percpu..readmostly. However, UP kernel builds don't have percpu
sections defined and the non-percpu version of the section is called
data..read_mostly, so .data..readmostly will float around and may break
things unexpectedly.

Looking at the original change that introduced data..percpu..readmostly
(commit c957ef2c59), it looks like this
was the original intention.

Tested: Built UP kernel and confirmed the sections got merged.

- Before the patch:
$ objdump -h vmlinux.o  | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly'
38 .data..read_mostly 00004418  0000000000000000  0000000000000000  00431ac0  2**6

- After the patch:
$ objdump -h vmlinux.o  | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly'
38 .data..read_mostly 00004438  0000000000000000  0000000000000000  00431ac0  2**6

ARC Linux (not supporting native unaligned access) was failing
to boot because __start_kprobe_blacklist was not aligned.

This was because per generated vmlinux.lds it was emitted right
next to .rodata with strings etc hence could be randomly
unaligned.

Fix that by ensuring a word alignment. While 4 would suffice for
32bit arches and problem at hand, it is probably better to put 8.

Masami Hiramatsu 376e242429 kprobes: Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro to maintain kprobes blacklist
Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes
blacklist at kernel build time.

The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(),
placed after the function definition:

  NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function);

Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline
functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro
for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller.

When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function
address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section.

Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the
macro (because there is no "size" information),  those
are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.

Stephen Boyd 6c3ff8b11a ARM: Introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() for cpu hotplug/smp
The goal of multi-platform kernels is to remove the need for mach
directories and machine descriptors. To further that goal,
introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() to allow cpu hotplug/smp
support to be separated from the machine descriptors.
Implementers should specify an enable-method property in their
cpus node and then implement a matching set of smp_ops in their
hotplug/smp code, wiring it up with the CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE()
macro. When the kernel is compiled we'll collect all the
enable-method smp_ops into one section for use at boot.

At boot time we'll look for an enable-method in each cpu node and
try to match that against all known CPU enable methods in the
kernel. If there are no enable-methods in the cpu nodes we
fallback to the cpus node and try to use any enable-method found
there. If that doesn't work we fall back to the old way of using
the machine descriptor.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 102c9323c3 tracing: Add __tracepoint_string() to export string pointers
There are several tracepoints (mostly in RCU), that reference a string
pointer and uses the print format of "%s" to display the string that
exists in the kernel, instead of copying the actual string to the
ring buffer (saves time and ring buffer space).

But this has an issue with userspace tools that read the binary buffers
that has the address of the string but has no access to what the string
itself is. The end result is just output that looks like:

 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeaa 1 0
 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
 rcu_utilization:      ffffffff8184333b
 rcu_utilization:      ffffffff8184333b

The above is pretty useless when read by the userspace tools. Ideally
we would want something that looks like this:

 rcu_dyntick:          Start 1 0
 rcu_dyntick:          End 0 140000000000000
 rcu_dyntick:          Start 140000000000000 0
 rcu_callback:         rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880037aff710 func=put_cred_rcu 0/4
 rcu_callback:         rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880078961980 func=file_free_rcu 0/5
 rcu_dyntick:          End 0 1

The trace_printk() which also only stores the address of the string
format instead of recording the string into the buffer itself, exports
the mapping of kernel addresses to format strings via the printk_format
file in the debugfs tracing directory.

The tracepoint strings can use this same method and output the format
to the same file and the userspace tools will be able to decipher
the address without any modification.

The tracepoint strings need its own section to save the strings because
the trace_printk section will cause the trace_printk() buffers to be
allocated if anything exists within the section. trace_printk() is only
used for debugging and should never exist in the kernel, we can not use
the trace_printk sections.

Add a new tracepoint_str section that will also be examined by the output
of the printk_format file.

Alexandre Bounine 2ec3ba69fa rapidio: convert switch drivers to modules
Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.

This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method.  To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure.  The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.

If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.

This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

Paul Gortmaker e24f662881 modpost: remove all traces of cpuinit/cpuexit sections
Delete all audit rules that were checking how the .cpuXYZ
related sections were inter-operating with other __init
like sections, now that __cpuinit is gone.  Update the linker
script to not have any knowledge of .cpuinit sections.

Rusty Russell b92021b09d CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup.
We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
"_".  But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
do so.

Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
prefix it so something.  So various places define helpers which are
defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:

1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
   CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
   for pasting.

(arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).

Let's solve this properly:
1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
4) Make everyone use them.

Linus Torvalds b274776c54 arm-soc: cleanups
A large number of cleanups, all over the platforms. This is dominated
 largely by the Samsung platforms (s3c, s5p, exynos) and a few of the
 others moving code out of arch/arm into more appropriate subsystems.
 The clocksource and irqchip drivers are now abstracted to the point
 where platforms that are already cleaned up do not need to even specify
 the driver they use, it can all get configured from the device tree
 as we do for normal device drivers. The clocksource changes basically
 touch every single platform in the process.
 
 We further clean up the use of platform specific header files here,
 with the goal of turning more of the platforms over to being
 "multiplatform" enabled, which implies that they cannot expose
 their headers to architecture independent code any more.
 
 It is expected that no functional changes are part of the cleanup.
 The overall reduction in total code lines is mostly the result of
 removing broken and obsolete code.

Thomas Petazzoni f6e916b820 irqchip: add basic infrastructure
With the recent creation of the drivers/irqchip/ directory, it is
desirable to move irq controller drivers here. At the moment, the only
driver here is irq-bcm2835, the driver for the irq controller found in
the ARM BCM2835 SoC, present in Rasberry Pi systems. This irq
controller driver was exporting its initialization function and its
irq handling function through a header file in
<linux/irqchip/bcm2835.h>.

When proposing to also move another irq controller driver in
drivers/irqchip, Rob Herring raised the very valid point that moving
things to drivers/irqchip was good in order to remove more stuff from
arch/arm, but if it means adding gazillions of headers files in
include/linux/irqchip/, it would not be very nice.

So, upon the suggestion of Rob Herring and Arnd Bergmann, this commit
introduces a small infrastructure that defines a central
irqchip_init() function in drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c, which is meant
to be called as the ->init_irq() callback of ARM platforms. This
function calls of_irq_init() with an array of match strings and init
functions generated from a special linker section.

Note that the irq controller driver initialization function is
responsible for setting the global handle_arch_irq() variable, so that
ARM platforms no longer have to define the ->handle_irq field in their
DT_MACHINE structure.

A global header, <linux/irqchip.h> is also added to expose the single
irqchip_init() function to the reset of the kernel.

A further commit moves the BCM2835 irq controller driver to this new
small infrastructure, therefore removing the include/linux/irqchip/
directory.

It is desirable to move all clocksource drivers to drivers/clocksource,
yet each requires its own initialization function. We'd rather not
pollute <linux/> with a header for each function. Instead, create a
single of_clksrc_init() function which will determine which clocksource
driver to initialize based on device tree.

Alessio Igor Bogani f02e8a6596 module: Sort exported symbols
This patch places every exported symbol in its own section
(i.e. "___ksymtab+printk").  Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive
to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section
(i.e. "__ksymtab").

The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols.
To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary
section names.
