Previously, init failed to do anything meaningful;
it turns out that the reason is that FD-PIC has a readonly data
section which can be located in the XIP filesystem, and various address checks
in the kernel reject such addresses for syscall arguments. Hence, init's
execve ("/bin/sh", ...)
failed with error code EFAULT.
There's room for improvement here: in case people want to have filesystems
on flash rather than in main memory, _access_ok should be modified to
allow this.

The function flush_switched_dcplbs was clearing the CPLB entries covering
the process permission bitmasks. This means that the sequence
flush_switched_dcplbs ();
set_mask_dcplbs(mm->context.page_rwx_mask);
has a problem: if kernel code (such as an interrupt) causes a CPLB miss before
set_mask_dcplbs completes, the CPLB handler function causes a double fault,
with an instantaneous reboot.

This is a rather old performance improvement for the signal handling
code, which was originally only committed on the 2007R1 branch as a
workaround for what we suspected to be a hardware bug.
There's no point in constructing a sigreturn stub on the stack and
flushing caches; we can just make signal handlers return to a known
location in the fixed code area.

relocate MAX_SWITCH_{D,I}_CPLBS from the header to the file
where it actually gets used. this way when we change
CONFIG_MEM_SIZE in our kconfig, we only rebuild one or two files
rather than a whole bunch that implicitly include cplb.h.
this will also remove the ability to clear the swapcount on
the fly, but i really dont think that functionality is important.
ultimate goal is for CONFIG_MEM_SIZE to go away and calculate
this value on the fly based on what u-boot programmed for us.

There were a couple of problems with the way the trace buffer state
is saved/restored in assembly. The DEBUG_HWTRACE_SAVE/RESTORE macros
save a value to the stack, which is not immediately obvious; the CPLB
exception code needed changes to load the correct value of the stack
pointer. The other problem is that the SAVE/RESTORE macros weren't
pushing and popping the value downwards on the stack, but rather moving
it _upwards_, which is of course completely broken.
We also need to make sure there's a matching DEBUG_HWTRACE_RESTORE in
the error case of the CPLB handler.

Since
r3658 | vapier | 2007-09-12 16:26:11 +0200 (Wed, 12 Sep 2007) | 1 line
add more common defines for output sections
we've had a new line, NOTES, in our linker script, which causes upstream
binutils to complain about "missing phdr". Currently the only other arch
that uses NOTES is i386, and the patch which added it also added
PHDRS {
text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5); /* R_E */
data PT_LOAD FLAGS(7); /* RWE */
note PT_NOTE FLAGS(0); /* ___ */
}
and a few other modifications to use ":text" and ":data" to the linker
script.
It seems that we don't need NOTES at all, so just remove it.

While testing with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y, I found that
I occasionally get very huge system time in some threads.
So I dug the issue and finally noticed that it was caused
because of an interrupt which interrupt in the following window:
> [arch/ia64/kernel/entry.S: (!CONFIG_PREEMPT && CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING)]
>
> ENTRY(ia64_leave_syscall)
> :
> (pUStk) rsm psr.i
> cmp.eq pLvSys,p0=r0,r0 // pLvSys=1: leave from syscall
> (pUStk) cmp.eq.unc p6,p0=r0,r0 // p6 <- pUStk
> .work_processed_syscall:
> adds r2=PT(LOADRS)+16,r12
> (pUStk) mov.m r22=ar.itc // fetch time at leave
> adds r18=TI_FLAGS+IA64_TASK_SIZE,r13
> ;;
> <<< window: from here >>>
> (p6) ld4 r31=[r18] // load current_thread_info()->flags
> ld8 r19=[r2],PT(B6)-PT(LOADRS)

> ;;
> ld8 r9=[r2],PT(CR_IPSR)-PT(R9)
> ld8 r11=[r3],PT(CR_IIP)-PT(R11)
> (pNonSys) break 0 // bug check: we shouldn't be here if pNonSys is TRUE!

If pUStk is true, it means we are going to return user mode, hence we fetch
ar.itc to get time at leave from system.
It seems that it is not possible to interrupt the window if pUStk is true,
because interrupts are disabled early. And also disabling interrupt makes
sense because it is safe for referring current_thread_info()->flags.
However interrupting the window while pUStk is true was possible.
The route was:
ia64_trace_syscall
-> .work_pending_syscall_end
-> .work_processed_syscall
Only in case entering the window from this route, interrupts are enabled
during in the window even if pUStk is true. I suppose interrupts must be
disabled here anyway if pUStk is true.
I'm not sure but afraid that what kind of bad effect were there, other
than crazy system time which I found.
FYI, there was a commit 6f6d75825d that
points out a bug at same point(exit of ia64_trace_syscall) in 2006.
It can be said that there was an another bug.
