The show_fiq_list() call in arch/arm/kernel/irq.c currently depends on
CONFIG_ARCH_ACORN, but this is not the only architecture that supports
the usage of FIQ. Change to calling this if CONFIG_FIQ is set (which
is what arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c is built by).

This patch adds support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK to ARM's
signal handling, which allows to hook up the pselect6, ppoll,
and epoll_pwait syscalls on ARM.
Tested here with eabi userspace and a test program with a
deliberate race between a child's exit and the parent's
sigprocmask/select sequence. Using sys_pselect6() instead
of sigprocmask/select reliably prevents the race.
The other arch's support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK has evolved
over time:
In 2.6.16:
- add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK which parallels TIF_SIGPENDING
- test both when checking for pending signal [changed later]
- reimplement sys_sigsuspend() to use current->saved_sigmask,
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK [changed later], and -ERESTARTNOHAND;
ditto for sys_rt_sigsuspend(), but drop private code and
use common code via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND;
- there are now no "extra" calls to do_signal() so its oldset
parameter is always ¤t->blocked so need not be passed,
also its return value is changed to void
- change handle_signal() to return 0/-errno
- change do_signal() to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK:
+ get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
is set
+ if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
+ if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then
clear it and restore the sigmask
- hook up sys_pselect6() and sys_ppoll()
In 2.6.19:
- hook up sys_epoll_pwait()
In 2.6.26:
- allow archs to override how TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is implemented;
default set_restore_sigmask() sets both TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK and
TIF_SIGPENDING; archs need now just test TIF_SIGPENDING again
when checking for pending signal work; some archs now implement
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as a secondary/non-atomic thread flag bit
- call set_restore_sigmask() in sys_sigsuspend() instead of setting
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
In 2.6.29-rc:
- kill sys_pselect7() which no arch wanted
So for 2.6.31-rc6/ARM this patch does the following:
- Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK. Use the generic set_restore_sigmask()
which sets both TIF_SIGPENDING and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, so
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK need not claim one of the scarce low thread
flags, and existing TIF_SIGPENDING and _TIF_WORK_MASK tests need
not be extended for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.
- sys_sigsuspend() is reimplemented to use current->saved_sigmask
and set_restore_sigmask(), making it identical to most other archs
- The private code for sys_rt_sigsuspend() is removed, instead
generic code supplies it via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND.
- sys_sigsuspend() and sys_rt_sigsuspend() no longer need a pt_regs
parameter, so their assembly code wrappers are removed.
- handle_signal() is changed to return 0 on success or -errno.
- The oldset parameter to do_signal() is now redundant and removed,
and the return value is now also redundant and changed to void.
- do_signal() is changed to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK:
+ get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
is set
+ if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
+ if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then
clear it and restore the sigmask
- Hook up sys_pselect6, sys_ppoll, and sys_epoll_pwait.

Before this patch enabling and disabling irqs in assembler code and by

I had to transpose two instructions in arch/arm/lib/bitops.h because
restore_irqs doesn't preserve the flags with CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y

The patch below adds ARM ptrace functions to get the process load address.
This is required for useful userspace debugging on mmuless systems. These

Modules compiled to Thumb-2 have two additional relocations needing to
be resolved at load time, R_ARM_THM_CALL and R_ARM_THM_JUMP24, for BL
and B.W instructions. The maximum Thumb-2 addressing range is +/-2^24
(+/-16MB) therefore the MODULES_VADDR macro in asm/memory.h is set to
(MODULES_END - 8MB) for the Thumb-2 compiled kernel.

From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
As __builtin_return_address(n) doesn't work for ARM with n > 0, the
kernel needs its own implementation.
This fixes many warnings saying:
warning: unsupported argument to '__builtin_return_address'
The new methods and walk_stackframe must not be instrumented because
CALLER_ADDRESSx is used in the various tracers and tracing the tracer is
a bad idea.
What's currently missing is an implementation using unwind tables. This
is not fatal though, it's just that the tracers don't get enough
information to be really useful.
Note that if both ARM_UNWIND and FRAME_POINTER are enabled,
walk_stackframe uses unwind information. So in this case the same
implementation is used as when FRAME_POINTER is disabled.

Add core functions to handle writes to the ep93xx software locked
registers.
There are a number of registers in the EP93xx System Controller
that require a write to the software lock register before they
can be updated. This patch adds a number of exported functions
to the ep93xx core that handle this access.
The software locked clock divider registers, VidClkDiv, MIRClkDiv,
I2SClkDiv and KeyTchClkDiv would typically involve writing a
specific value to the register. To support this the
ep93xx_syscon_swlocked_write() function is provided.
For the DeviceCfg register it's more typical to only need to
set or clear a single bit. A generic ep93xx_devcfg_set_clear()
function is provided to handle both operations. Two inline
functions, ep93xx_devcfg_set_bits() and ep93xx_devcfg_clear_bits()
are also provided to improve code readability.
In addition, the remaining bits in the System Controller Device
Config Register have been documented and the previously defined
names shortened.
All code paths that use this functionality have been updated
except for arch/arm/kernel/crunch.c. That code is in a context
switch path, which is not reentrant, so it is safe against itself.

Update the link script for ARM to use PAGE_SIZE instead of hard-
coded 4096. Also the old RODATA macro is deprecated
for the RO_DATA(PAGE_SIZE) macro. As a consequence the PAGE_SIZE
was changed from (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT) to (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
because the linker does not understand the "UL" suffix to numeric
constants.

pm_idle is used by infrastructure (eg, cpuidle) which expects architectures
to call it in a certain way. Arrange for ARM to follow x86's lead on this
and call pm_idle() with interrupts already disabled. However, we expect
pm_idle() to enable interrupts before it returns.
Also, OMAP wants to be able to disable hlt-ing, so allow hlt_counter to
prevent all calls to pm_idle.

There are situations where the unwinder goes beyond stack boundaries and
unwinds random data. This patch moves the stack boundaries check after
the unwind_exec_insn() call and adds an extra check for possible
infinite loops (like "mov pc, lr" with pc == lr).
The patch also fixes a bug in the unwind instructions interpreter. The
0xb0 instruction can only set PC to LR if this wasn't already set by
a previous instruction (this is used on exceptions taken while in kernel
mode where svc_entry is annotated with ".save {r0 - pc}").

* create mm/init-mm.c, move init_mm there
* remove INIT_MM, initialize init_mm with C99 initializer
* unexport init_mm on all arches:
init_mm is already unexported on x86.
One strange place is some OMAP driver (drivers/video/omap/) which
won't build modular, but it's already wants get_vm_area() export.
Somebody should look there.

Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian
(byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support:
- setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and
user threads
- big-endian page table walking
- REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault
processing as they are still little-endian format
- Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed
to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to
little-endian

Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking:
- cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on
architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory
read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent
ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM.
- test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers.
So put these barriers in. Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub
operations which do not require barriers.

From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support
for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is
required.
The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16
bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the
top half of a register.
The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit
value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the
instruction itself. The immediate bits in the instruction are not
contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value),
so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value.
The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the
bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

Kernel 2.6.30-rc1 added sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to most archs
but not ARM, resulting in
<stdin>:1421:2: warning: #warning syscall preadv not implemented
<stdin>:1425:2: warning: #warning syscall pwritev not implemented
This patch adds sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to ARM.
These syscalls simply take five long-sized parameters, so they
should have no calling-convention/ABI issues in the kernel.
Tested on armv5tel eabi using a preadv/pwritev test program posted
on linuxppc-dev earlier this month.
It would be nice to get this into the kernel before 2.6.30 final,
so that glibc's kernel version feature test for these syscalls
doesn't have to special-case ARM.
