This patch move the vsyscall_gtod_data handling out of vsyscall_64.c
into an additonal file vsyscall_gtod.c to make the functionality
available for x86 32 bit kernel.
It also adds a new vsyscall_32.c which setup the VVAR page.

The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain
compatibility with a small range of glibc versions.
This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.
This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.

Add the Kconfig option and bump the kernel header version so that boot
loaders can check whether the handover code is available if they want.
The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits.
Note that no boot loaders should be using the bits set in xloadflags to
decide which entry point to jump to. The entire scheme is based on the
concept that 32-bit bootloaders always jump to ->handover_offset and
64-bit loaders always jump to ->handover_offset + 512. We set both bits
merely to inform the boot loader that it's safe to use the native
handover offset even if the machine type in the PE/COFF header claims
otherwise.

The x86 CPU feature modalias handling existed before it was reimplemented
generically. This patch aligns the x86 handling so that it
(a) reuses some more code that is now generic;
(b) uses the generic format for the modalias module metadata entry, i.e., it
now uses 'cpu:type:x86,venVVVVfamFFFFmodMMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' instead of
the 'x86cpu:vendor:VVVV👪FFFF:model:MMMM:feature:,XXXX,YYYY' that was
used before.

This patch fixes the following warning:
warning: (X86_INTEL_MID) selects INTEL_SCU_IPC which has unmet direct dependencies (X86 && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES && X86_INTEL_MID)
It happens because when selected, X86_INTEL_MID tries to select
INTEL_SCU_IPC regardless all its dependencies are met or not.
This patch fixes it by adding the missing X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES
dependency to X86_INTEL_MID.

Current Intel SOC cores use a MailBox Interface (MBI) to provide access to
configuration registers on devices (called units) connected to the system
fabric. This is a support driver that implements access to this interface on
those platforms that can enumerate the device using PCI. Initial support is for
BayTrail, for which port definitons are provided. This is a requirement for
implementing platform specific features (e.g. RAPL driver requires this to
perform platform specific power management using the registers in PUNIT).
Dependant modules should select IOSF_MBI in their respective Kconfig
configuraiton. Serialized access is handled by all exported routines with
spinlocks.
The API includes 3 functions for access to unit registers:
int iosf_mbi_read(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 *mdr)
int iosf_mbi_write(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 mdr)
int iosf_mbi_modify(u8 port, u8 opcode, u32 offset, u32 mdr, u32 mask)
port: indicating the unit being accessed
opcode: the read or write port specific opcode
offset: the register offset within the port
mdr: the register data to be read, written, or modified
mask: bit locations in mdr to change
Returns nonzero on error
Note: GPU code handles access to the GFX unit. Therefore access to that unit
with this driver is disallowed to avoid conflicts.

Depending on availability, mix the RDRAND and RDTSC entropy together with
XOR. Only when neither is available should the i8254 be used. Update
the Kconfig documentation to reflect this. Additionally, since bits
used for entropy is masked elsewhere, drop the needless masking in
the get_random_long(). Similarly, use the entire TSC, not just the low
32 bits.
Finally, to improve the starting entropy, do a simple hashing of a
build-time versions string and the boot-time boot_params structure for
some additional level of unpredictability.

[ Tweaked it so that MAXSMP simply sets the maximum of the normal range. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
The current range for SMP configs is 2 - 512 CPUs, or a full
4096 in the case of MAXSMP. There are machines that have 1024
CPUs in them today and configuring a kernel for that means you
are forced to set MAXSMP. This adds additional unnecessary
overhead. While that overhead might be considered tiny for
large machines, it isn't necessarily so if you are building a
kernel that runs across a wide variety of machines.
To cover the range of more common machines today, we allow
NR_CPUS to be up to 4096 when CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled.

This allows decompress_kernel to return a new location for the kernel to
be relocated to. Additionally, enforces CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as the
minimum relocation position when building with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE.
With CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE set, the choose_kernel_location routine
will select a new location to decompress the kernel, though here it is
presently a no-op. The kernel command line option "nokaslr" is introduced
to bypass these routines.

The AMD_GART driver was made EXPERT/EMBEDDED a long time
ago to avoid unbootable 64bit systems with 32bit only devices.
This was before swiotlb was there, which does the job
of this fallback today. SWIOTLB is always on, so systems
should always boot.
The drawback is that every system has to compile that
driver in (it cannot be a module).
Also:
- Newer AMD CPUs (the APUs) don't seem to have AMD_GART support
at all anymore.
- Newer AMD platforms have a much better real IOMMU
- The AMD GART driver was never very good (lots of overhead,
e.g. in flushing due to some workarounds) and it's doubtful it's
really better than SWIOTLB.
- On older K8 systems it didn't even work with all chipsets.
- The 32bit device bounce buffer case should be rare/
non performance critical these days anyways.
- On non AMD systems it is not needed at all.
So drop the EXPERT dependency on AMD_GART and remove the
default y. The driver can be still compiled in, just
it's an explicit decision now, and people who don't want
it can unselect it.
I also clarified the description a bit.
This allows to save ~8K text on most modern x86-64 systems.

Commit ebd97be635 ('PCI: remove ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI kconfig option')
removed the ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI option which architectures could select
to indicate that they support MSI. Now, all architectures are supposed
to build fine when MSI support is enabled: instead of having the
architecture tell *when* MSI support can be used, it's up to the
architecture code to ensure that MSI support can be enabled.
On x86, commit ebd97be635 removed the following line:
select ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI if (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC)
Which meant that MSI support was only available when the local APIC
and I/O APIC were enabled. While this is always true on SMP or x86-64,
it is not necessarily the case on i386 !SMP.
The below patch makes sure that the local APIC and I/O APIC support is
always enabled when MSI support is enabled. To do so, it:
* Ensures the X86_UP_APIC option is not visible when PCI_MSI is
enabled. This is the option that allows, on UP machines, to enable
or not the APIC support. It is already not visible on SMP systems,
or x86-64 systems, for example. We're simply also making it
invisible on i386 MSI systems.
* Ensures that the X86_LOCAL_APIC and X86_IO_APIC options are 'y'
when PCI_MSI is enabled.
Notice that this change requires a change in drivers/iommu/Kconfig to
avoid a recursive Kconfig dependencey. The AMD_IOMMU option selects
PCI_MSI, but was depending on X86_IO_APIC. This dependency is no
longer needed: as soon as PCI_MSI is selected, the presence of
X86_IO_APIC is guaranteed. Moreover, the AMD_IOMMU already depended on
X86_64, which already guaranteed that X86_IO_APIC was enabled, so this
dependency was anyway redundant.

x86-64 runs irq_exit() under the irq stack. So it can afford
to run softirqs in hardirq exit without the need to switch
the stacks. The hardirq stack is good enough for that.
Now x86-64 runs softirqs in the hardirq stack anyway, so what we
mostly skip is some needless per cpu refcounting updates there.
x86-32 is not concerned because it only runs the irq handler on
the irq stack.

Commit d7c53c9e enabled ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE on x86 in order to
serialize CPU online/offline operations. Although it is the config
option to enable CPU hotplug test interfaces, probe & release, it is
also the option to enable cpu_hotplug_driver_lock() as well. Therefore,
this option had to be enabled on x86 with dummy arch_cpu_probe() and
arch_cpu_release().
Since then, lock_device_hotplug() was introduced to serialize CPU
online/offline & hotplug operations. Therefore, this config option
is no longer required for the serialization. This patch disables
this config option on x86 and revert the changes made by commit
d7c53c9e.

This branch contains mostly additions and changes to platform enablement

Pieces worth mentioning are:
- Mbus driver for Marvell platforms, allowing kernel configuration
and resource allocation of on-chip peripherals.
- Enablement of the mbus infrastructure from Marvell PCI-e drivers.
- Preparation of MSI support for Marvell platforms.
- Addition of new PCI-e host controller driver for Tegra platforms
- Some churn caused by sharing of macro names between i.MX 6Q and 6DL
platforms in the device tree sources and header files.
- Various suspend/PM updates for Tegra, including LP1 support.
- Versatile Express support for MCPM, part of big little support.
- Allwinner platform support for A20 and A31 SoCs (dual and quad Cortex-A7)
- OMAP2+ support for DRA7, a new Cortex-A15-based SoC.
The code that touches other architectures are patches moving

Instead of taking the spinlock, the lockless versions atomically check
that the lock is not taken, and do the reference count update using a
cmpxchg() loop. This is semantically identical to doing the reference
count update protected by the lock, but avoids the "wait for lock"
contention that you get when accesses to the reference count are
contended.
Note that a "lockref" is absolutely _not_ equivalent to an atomic_t.
Even when the lockref reference counts are updated atomically with
cmpxchg, the fact that they also verify the state of the spinlock means
that the lockless updates can never happen while somebody else holds the
spinlock.
So while "lockref_put_or_lock()" looks a lot like just another name for
"atomic_dec_and_lock()", and both optimize to lockless updates, they are
fundamentally different: the decrement done by atomic_dec_and_lock() is
truly independent of any lock (as long as it doesn't decrement to zero),
so a locked region can still see the count change.
The lockref structure, in contrast, really is a *locked* reference
count. If you hold the spinlock, the reference count will be stable and
you can modify the reference count without using atomics, because even
the lockless updates will see and respect the state of the lock.
In order to enable the cmpxchg lockless code, the architecture needs to
do three things:
(1) Make sure that the "arch_spinlock_t" and an "unsigned int" can fit
in an aligned u64, and have a "cmpxchg()" implementation that works
on such a u64 data type.
(2) define a helper function to test for a spinlock being unlocked
("arch_spin_value_unlocked()")
(3) select the "ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF" config variable in its
Kconfig file.
This enables it for x86-64 (but not 32-bit, we'd need to make sure
cmpxchg() turns into the proper cmpxchg8b in order to enable it for
32-bit mode).

Moves the relocation handling into C, after decompression. This requires
that the decompressed size is passed to the decompression routine as
well so that relocations can be found. Only kernels that need relocation
support will use the code (currently just x86_32), but this is laying

The current situation regarding boot-framebuffers (VGA, VESA/VBE, EFI) on
x86 causes troubles when loading multiple fbdev drivers. The global
"struct screen_info" does not provide any state-tracking about which
drivers use the FBs. request_mem_region() theoretically works, but
unfortunately vesafb/efifb ignore it due to quirks for broken boards.
Avoid this by creating a platform framebuffer devices with a pointer
to the "struct screen_info" as platform-data. Drivers can now create
platform-drivers and the driver-core will refuse multiple drivers being
active simultaneously.
We keep the screen_info available for backwards-compatibility. Drivers
can be converted in follow-up patches.
Different devices are created for VGA/VESA/EFI FBs to allow multiple
drivers to be loaded on distro kernels. We create:
- "vesa-framebuffer" for VBE/VESA graphics FBs
- "efi-framebuffer" for EFI FBs
- "platform-framebuffer" for everything else
This allows to load vesafb, efifb and others simultaneously and each
picks up only the supported FB types.
Apart from platform-framebuffer devices, this also introduces a
compatibility option for "simple-framebuffer" drivers which recently got
introduced for OF based systems. If CONFIG_X86_SYSFB is selected, we
try to match the screen_info against a simple-framebuffer supported
format. If we succeed, we create a "simple-framebuffer" device instead
of a platform-framebuffer.
This allows to reuse the simplefb.c driver across architectures and also
to introduce a SimpleDRM driver. There is no need to have vesafb.c,
efifb.c, simplefb.c and more just to have architecture specific quirks
in their setup-routines.
Instead, we now move the architecture specific quirks into x86-setup and
provide a generic simple-framebuffer. For backwards-compatibility (if
strange formats are used), we still allow vesafb/efifb to be loaded
simultaneously and pick up all remaining devices.

CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE enables the
/sys/devices/system/memory/probe interface, which allows a given
memory address to be hot-added as follows:
# echo start_address_of_new_memory > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
(See Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt for more details.)
This probe interface is required on powerpc. On x86, however,
ACPI notifies a memory hotplug event to the kernel, which
performs its hotplug operation as the result.
Therefore, regular users do not need this interface on x86. This probe
interface is also error-prone and misleading that the kernel blindly
adds a given memory address without checking if the memory is present
on the system; no probing is done despite of its name.
The kernel crashes when a user requests to online a memory block
that is not present on the system. This interface is currently
used for testing as it can fake a hotplug event.
This patch disables CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE by default on x86,
adds its Kconfig menu entry on x86, and clarifies its use in
Documentation/ memory-hotplug.txt.

Merge Kconfig menu diet patches from Dave Hansen:
"I think the "Kernel Hacking" menu has gotten a bit out of hand. It is
over 120 lines long on my system with everything enabled and options
are scattered around it haphazardly.
http://sr71.net/~dave/linux/kconfig-horror.png
Let's try to introduce some sanity. This set takes that 120 lines
down to 55 and makes it vastly easier to find some things. It's a
start.
This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up
patches. The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck
in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu. OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for
instance, could obviously go in to the "compiler options" menu, but
the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps
it on its own for the moment.

Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options.
They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly
differing help text.
This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig
boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug
to present the actual menu option. This removes a bunch of
duplication and adds consistency across arches.

The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to. In order to do this tracking one should
1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
2. Wait some time.
3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)
To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is. Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.
Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast. This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.
Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Cure for not using zalloc in the first place, which leads to random
crashes with CPUMASK_OFF_STACK.
- Revert a user space visible change which broke udev
- Add a missing cpu_online early return introduced by the new full
dyntick conversions
- Plug a long standing race in the timer wheel cpu hotplug code.
Sigh...
- Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down to prevent stale data on cpu
up.
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
time: Revert ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK compile time optimizaitons
timer: Don't reinitialize the cpu base lock during CPU_UP_PREPARE
tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if the cpu is offline
tick: Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down
tick: Use zalloc_cpumask_var for allocating offstack cpumasks
Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config,
which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid
uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause
problems for userland.
In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on
!ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time
twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect
of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be
zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the
/dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for
older applications.
While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile,
breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally
the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code
being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so
lets revert this change.

GENERIC_GPIO now synonymous with GPIOLIB. There are no longer any valid
cases for enableing GENERIC_GPIO without GPIOLIB, even though it is
possible to do so which has been causing confusion and breakage. This
branch does the work to completely eliminate GENERIC_GPIO.
However, it is not trivial to just create a branch to remove it. Over
the course of the v3.9 cycle more code referencing GENERIC_GPIO has been
added to linux-next that conflicts with this branch. The following must
be done to resolve the conflicts when merging this branch into mainline:
* "git grep CONFIG_GENERIC_GPIO" should return 0 hits. Matches should be
replaced with CONFIG_GPIOLIB
* "git grep '\bGENERIC_GPIO\b'" should return 1 hit in the Chinese
documentation.
* Selectors of GENERIC_GPIO should be turned into selectors of GPIOLIB
* definitions of the option in architecture Kconfig code should be deleted.
Stephen has 3 merge fixup patches[1] that do the above. They are currently
applicable on mainline as of May 2nd.

The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.
To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.
Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.
While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle's merge are:
- Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.
- Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:
- allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.
- debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.
- suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
after resume. This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
can be used.
- Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
simplistic seqfile approach fails. Convert /proc/timer_list to a
proper seq_file with its own iterator.
- Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
Stultz.
- International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
internally currently but not exposed externally. Separate the TAI
code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer
and posix-timer code, by John Stultz.
- Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents
driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid
spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring
timer will be woken.
- Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt
- ... various other fixes and cleanups"

this went through a number of review and test iterations before it was
committed, it was tested on various architectures, was exposed to
linux-next for quite some time - nevertheless it might cause problems
on architectures that don't read the mailing lists and don't regularly
