2010-09-02ARM: 6352/1: perf: fix event validationWill Deacon
The validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the following problems: 1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost. 2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation, causing the group to fail. This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.

2010-09-01ARM: 6343/1: wire up fanotify and prlimit64 syscalls on ARMMikael Pettersson
The 2.6.36-rc kernel added three new system calls: fanotify_init, fanotify_mark, and prlimit64. This patch wires them up on ARM. The only non-trivial issue here is the u64 argument to sys_fanotify_mark(), but it is the 3rd argument and thus passed in r2/r3 in both kernel and user space, so it causes no problems. Tested with a 2.6.36-rc2 EABI kernel on an ixp4xx machine.

2010-09-01ARM: 6330/1: perf: reword comments relating to perf_event_do_pendingWill Deacon
This is purely a cosmetic change to the ARM perf backend because the current comments about the relationship between NMIs, interrupt context and perf_event_do_pending are misleading. This patch updates the comments so that they reflect what the code actually does (which is in line with other architectures).

2010-08-17Make do_execve() take a const filename pointerDavid Howells
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

2010-08-15ARM: 6329/1: wire up sys_accept4() on ARMMikael Pettersson
sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated to include it. The number and types of parameters is such that no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4() just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in the syscall entry table. Tested with an EABI 2.6.35 kernel and Ulrich Drepper's original accept4() test program, modified to define __NR_accept4 for ARM. Using the updated unistd.h also eliminates a warning then building glibc (2.10.2 and newer) about accept4() being unimplemented.

2010-07-27ARM: call machine_shutdown() from machine_halt(), etcRussell King
x86 calls machine_shutdown() from the various machine_*() calls which take the machine down ready for halting, restarting, etc, and uses this to bring the system safely to a point where those actions can be performed. Such actions are stopping the secondary CPUs. So, change the ARM implementation of these to reflect what x86 does. This solves kexec problems on ARM SMP platforms, where the secondary CPUs were left running across the kexec call. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-07-27ARM: SMP: Always enable clock event broadcast supportRussell King
The TWD local timers are unable to wake up the CPU when it is placed into a low power mode, eg. C3. Therefore, we need to adapt things such that the TWD code can cope with this. We do this by always providing a broadcast tick function, and marking the fact that the TWD local timer will stop in low power modes. This means that when the CPU is placed into a low power mode, the core timer code marks this fact, and allows an IPI to be given to the core.

2010-07-27ARM: Factor out common code from cpu_proc_fin()Russell King
All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts and then flush caches. Rather than have every processors proc_fin() implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having caches still enabled.) This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support code.

2010-07-27ARM: 6225/1: make TCM allocation static and common for all archsLinus Walleij
This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at 0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive. This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it has to be nailed down in one place.

We essentially treat userspace as an entirely separate environment which isn't relevant to lockdep (lockdep doesn't monitor userspace.) We don't tell lockdep that IRQs will be enabled in that environment. Instead, when creating kernel threads (which is a rare event compared to entering/leaving userspace) we have to update the lockdep state. Do this by starting threads with IRQs disabled, and in the kthread helper, tell lockdep that IRQs are enabled, and enable them. This provides lockdep with a consistent view of the current IRQ state in kernel space. This also revert portions of 0d928b0b616d1c5c5fe76019a87cba171ca91633 which didn't fix the problem.
