Provide common sched_clock() infrastructure for platforms to use to
create a 64-bit ns based sched_clock() implementation from a counter
running at a non-variable clock rate.
This implementation is based upon maintaining an epoch for the counter
and an epoch for the nanosecond time. When we desire a sched_clock()
time, we calculate the number of counter ticks since the last epoch
update, convert this to nanoseconds and add to the epoch nanoseconds.
We regularly refresh these epochs within the counter wrap interval.
We perform a similar calculation as above, and store the new epochs.
We read and write the epochs in such a way that sched_clock() can easily
(and locklessly) detect when an update is in progress, and repeat the
loading of these constants when they're known not to be stable. The
one caveat is that sched_clock() is not called in the middle of an
update. We achieve that by disabling IRQs.
Finally, if the clock rate is known at compile time, the counter to ns
conversion factors can be specified, allowing sched_clock() to be tightly
optimized. We ensure that these factors are correct by providing an
initialization function which performs a run-time check.

When we soft-CPU hotplug a CPU, we reset the stack pointer and
jump back to start_secondary(). This allows us to restart as if
the CPU was actually reset.
However, we weren't resetting the frame pointer, which could cause
problems with backtracing. Reset the frame pointer to zero (which
means no parent frame) just like the early assembly code also does.

When a CPU is hot unplugged, the generic tick code cleans up the
clock event device, but fails to call down to the device's set_mode
function to actually shut the device down.
To work around this, we've historically had a local_timer_stop()
callback out of the hotplug code. However, this adds needless
complexity when we have the clock event device itself available.
Explicitly call the clock event device's set_mode function with
CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED, so that the hardware can be cleanly shutdown
without any special external callbacks. When/if the generic code
is fixed, percpu_timer_stop() can be killed off.

We used to print a bland error message which gave no clue as to the
failure when we failed to bring up a secondary CPU. Resolve this by
separating the two failure cases.
If boot_secondary() fails, we print a message indicating the returned
error code from boot_secondary():
"CPU%u: failed to boot: %d\n", cpu, ret.
However, if boot_secondary() succeeded, but the CPU did not appear to
mark itself online within the timeout, indicate that it failed to come
online:
"CPU%u: failed to come online\n", cpu

* __fixup_smp_on_up has been modified with support for the
THUMB2_KERNEL case. For THUMB2_KERNEL only, fixups are split
into halfwords in case of misalignment, since we can't rely on
unaligned accesses working before turning the MMU on.
No attempt is made to optimise the aligned case, since the
number of fixups is typically small, and it seems best to keep
the code as simple as possible.
* Add a rotate in the fixup_smp code in order to support
CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, as suggested by Nicolas Pitre.
* Add an assembly-time sanity-check to ALT_UP() to ensure that
the content really is the right size (4 bytes).
(No check is done for ALT_SMP(). Possibly, this could be fixed
by splitting the two uses ot ALT_SMP() (ALT_SMP...SMP_UP versus
ALT_SMP...SMP_UP_B) into two macros. In the first case,
ALT_SMP needs to expand to >= 4 bytes, not == 4.)
* smp_mpidr.h (which implements ALT_SMP()/ALT_UP() manually due
to macro limitations) has not been modified: the affected
instruction (mov) has no 16-bit encoding, so the correct
instruction size is satisfied in this case.
* A "mode" parameter has been added to smp_dmb:
smp_dmb arm @ assumes 4-byte instructions (for ARM code, e.g. kuser)
smp_dmb @ uses W() to ensure 4-byte instructions for ALT_SMP()
This avoids assembly failures due to use of W() inside smp_dmb,
when assembling pure-ARM code in the vectors page.
There might be a better way to achieve this.
* Kconfig: make SMP_ON_UP depend on
(!THUMB2_KERNEL || !BIG_ENDIAN) i.e., THUMB2_KERNEL is now
supported, but only if !BIG_ENDIAN (The fixup code for Thumb-2
currently assumes little-endian order.)

We should not be incrementing mm_users when we startup a secondary
CPU - doing so results in mm_users incrementing by one each time we
hotplug a CPU, which will eventually wrap, and will cause problems.
Other architectures such as x86 do not increment mm_users, but only
mm_count, so we follow that pattern.

Single-stepping a breakpoint requires us to disable it temporarily so that
we don't get stuck in a recursive debug trap. With per-cpu breakpoints this
presents a problem where an interrupt can be taken before the single-step has
completed and a new task is eventually scheduled. This new task will not
hit the breakpoint because it will have been disabled during the previous
handling code.
This patch disallows per-cpu breakpoints on ARM when an overflow handler
is not present. A similar effect can be created by placing breakpoints on
a shell and then running applications there.

The single-stepping code is currently different depending on whether
we are stepping over a breakpoint or a watchpoint. There is no good
reason for this, so let's sort it out.

handling code.

The watchpoint single-stepping code calls register_user_hw_breakpoint to
register a mismatch breakpoint for stepping over the watchpoint. This is
performed with preemption disabled, which is unsafe as we may end up scheduling
whilst in_atomic(). Furthermore, using the perf API is rather overkill since
we are already in the hw-breakpoint backend and only require access to reserved
breakpoints anyway.
This patch reworks the watchpoint stepping code so that we don't require
another perf_event for the mismatch breakpoint. Instead, we hold a separate
arch_hw_breakpoint_ctrl struct inside the watchpoint which is used exclusively
for stepping. We can check whether or not stepping is enabled when installing
or uninstalling the watchpoint and operate on the breakpoint accordingly.

To permit handling of watchpoint exceptions without signalling a

use only.

On ARM, debug exceptions occur in the form of data or prefetch aborts.
One difference is that debug exceptions require access to per-cpu banked
registers and data structures which are not saved in the low-level exception
code. For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, there is an unlikely scenario
that the debug handler ends up running on a different CPU from the one
that originally signalled the event, resulting in random data being read
from the wrong registers.
This patch adds a debug_entry macro to the low-level exception handling
code which checks whether the taken exception is a debug exception. If
it is, the preempt count for the faulting process is incremented. After
the debug handler has finished, the count is decremented.

The current hw_breakpoint code tries to fix up the alignment of
breakpoints so that we can make use of sparse byte-address-select
bits in the control register and give the illusion that we can
set breakpoints on unaligned addresses.
Although this works on v6 cores, v7 forbids this behaviour, instead
requiring breakpoints to be set on aligned addresses and have contiguous
byte-address-select ranges depending on the instruction set in use.
For ARM the only supported size is 4 bytes, whilst Thumb-2 also permits
2 byte breakpoints (watchpoints can be of 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes long).
This patch simplifies the alignment fixup code so that we require
addresses to be aligned to the size of the corresponding breakpoint.
This allows us to handle the common case of breaking on a half-word
aligned Thumb-2 instruction and also allows us to set byte watchpoints
on arbitrary addresses.

The ARMv7 debug architecture doesn't make any guarantees about the
contents of debug control registers following a debug logic reset.

ARMv7 architects a system for saving and restoring the debug registers
across low-power modes. At the heart of this system is a lock register
which, when set, forbids writes to the debug registers. While locked,
writes to debug registers via the co-processor interface will result
in undefined instruction traps. Linux currently doesn't make use of
this feature because we update the debug registers on context switch
anyway, however the status of the lock is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED on
reset.
This patch ensures that the lock is cleared during boot so that we
can write to the debug registers safely.

As our SMP implementation uses MESI protocols. Grouping together data
