Create a dedicated topology table for ARM which will create new level to
differentiate CPUs that can or not powergate independantly from others.
The patch gives an example of how to add domain that will take advantage of
SD_SHARE_POWERDOMAIN.

Move the /memreserve/ processing and dtb memory reservations into
early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem. This converts arm, arm64, and powerpc
as they are the only users of early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem.
memblock_reserve is safe to call on the same region twice, so the
reservation check for the dtb in powerpc 32-bit reservations is safe to
remove.

commit fdb487f5c961b94486a78fa61fa28b8eff1954ab
("ARM: 8015/1: Add cpu_is_pj4 to distinguish PJ4 because it
has some differences with V7")
introduced a fix for checking PJ4 cpuid to not use PJ4 specific
coprocessor access on non-PJ4 platforms.
Unfortunately, this in turn broke Marvell Armada 370/XP, both
comprising Marvell PJ4B CPUs without iWMMXt extension. Instead
of only checking for cpuid, which may not be sufficient to
determine iWMMXt support, the presence of iWMMXt coprocessors
can be checked by enabling and reading the Coprocessor ID
register (wCID, register 0 of CP1).
Therefore this adds an explicit check for the presence and correct
wCID value, before enabling iWMMXt capabilities. As a bonus, also
print the iWMMXt version of a detected coprocessor.
This has been tested to properly detect iWMMXt presence/absence on:
- PJ4, CPUID 0x560f5815, wCID 0x56052001: Marvell Dove, iWMMXt v2
- PJ4B, CPUID 0x561f5811: Marvell Armada 370, no iWMMXt
- PJ4B, CPUID 0x562f5841, wCID 0x56052001: Marvell Armada 1500, iWMMXt v2
- PJ4B, CPUID 0x562f5842: Marvell Armada XP, no iWMMXt

iwmmxt.S requires special treatment of coprocessor access registers
for PJ4 and XScale-based CPUs. It only checks for CPU_PJ4 and drops
down to XScale-based treatment on all other architectures.
As some PJ4B also come with iWMMXt and also need PJ4 treatment,
rework the corresponding preprocessor directives to explicitly
check for supported architectures and fail on unsupported ones.

The Undef abort handler in the kernel reads the undefined instruction
from user space. If the page table was modified from another CPU, the
user access could fail and do_page_fault() will be executed with
interrupts disabled. This can potentially deadlock on ARM11MPCore or on
Cortex-A15 with erratum 798181 workaround enabled (both implying IPI for
TLB maintenance with page table lock held).
This patch enables the IRQs in __und_usr before attempting to read the
instruction from user space.

Enable hibernation for ARM architectures and provide ARM
architecture specific calls used during hibernation.
The swsusp hibernation framework depends on the
platform first having functional suspend/resume.
Then, in order to enable hibernation on a given platform, a
platform_hibernation_ops structure may need to be registered with
the system in order to save/restore any SoC-specific / cpu specific
state needing (re)init over a suspend-to-disk/resume-from-disk cycle.
For example:
- "secure" SoCs that have different sets of control registers
and/or different CR reg access patterns.
- SoCs with L2 caches as the activation sequence there is
SoC-dependent; a full off-on cycle for L2 is not done
by the hibernation support code.
- SoCs requiring steps on wakeup _before_ the "generic" parts
done by cpu_suspend / cpu_resume can work correctly.
- SoCs having persistent state which is maintained during suspend
and resume, but will be lost during the power off cycle after
suspend-to-disk.
This is a rebase/rework of Frank Hofmann's v5 hibernation patchset.

Fix e26a9e00afc482b971afcaef1db8c9034d4d6d7c 'ARM: Better
virt_to_page() handling' replaced __pv_phys_offset with
__pv_phys_pfn_offset. Also note that size of __pv_phys_offset
was quad but size of __pv_phys_pfn_offset is word. Instruction
that used to update __pv_phys_offset which address is in r6
had to update low word of __pv_phys_offset so it used #LOW_OFFSET
macro for store offset. Now when size of __pv_phys_pfn_offset is
word, no difference between little endian and big endian should
exist - i.e no offset should be used when __pv_phys_pfn_offset
is stored.
Note that for little endian image proposed change is noop,
since in little endian case #LOW_OFFSET is defined 0 anyway.

File-private locks have been merged into Linux for v3.15, and *now*
people are commenting that the name and macro definitions for the new
file-private locks suck.
...and I can't even disagree. The names and command macros do suck.
We're going to have to live with these for a long time, so it's
important that we be happy with the names before we're stuck with them.
The consensus on the lists so far is that they should be rechristened as
"open file description locks".
The name isn't a big deal for the kernel, but the command macros are not
visually distinct enough from the traditional POSIX lock macros. The
glibc and documentation folks are recommending that we change them to
look like F_OFD_{GETLK|SETLK|SETLKW}. That lessens the chance that a
programmer will typo one of the commands wrong, and also makes it easier
to spot this difference when reading code.
This patch makes the following changes that I think are necessary before
v3.15 ships:
1) rename the command macros to their new names. These end up in the uapi
headers and so are part of the external-facing API. It turns out that
glibc doesn't actually use the fcntl.h uapi header, but it's hard to
be sure that something else won't. Changing it now is safest.
2) make the the /proc/locks output display these as type "OFDLCK"

This patch series adds basic uprobes support to ARM. It is based on

hooks into the kprobes instruction parsing code was not well received.
This approach separates the ARM instruction parsing code in kprobes out
into a separate set of functions which can be used by both kprobes and
uprobes. Both kprobes and uprobes then provide their own semantic action
tables to process the results of the parsing.

enabled. This is because we end up with this calculation:
page = &mem_map[asm virt_to_phys(addr) >> 12 - __pv_phys_offset >> 12]
in assembly. The asm virt_to_phys() is equivalent this this operation:
addr - PAGE_OFFSET + __pv_phys_offset
and we can see that because this is assembly, the compiler has no chance
to optimise some of that away. This should reduce down to:
page = &mem_map[(addr - PAGE_OFFSET) >> 12]
for the common cases. Permit the compiler to make this optimisation by
giving it more of the information it needs - do this by providing a
virt_to_pfn() macro.
Another issue which makes this more complex is that __pv_phys_offset is
a 64-bit type on all platforms. This is needlessly wasteful - if we
store the physical offset as a PFN, we can save a lot of work having
to deal with 64-bit values, which sometimes ends up producing incredibly
horrid code:
a4c: e3009000 movw r9, #0
a4c: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC __pv_phys_offset
a50: e3409000 movt r9, #0 ; r9 = &__pv_phys_offset
a50: R_ARM_MOVT_ABS __pv_phys_offset
a54: e3002000 movw r2, #0
a54: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC __pv_phys_offset
a58: e3402000 movt r2, #0 ; r2 = &__pv_phys_offset
a58: R_ARM_MOVT_ABS __pv_phys_offset
a5c: e5999004 ldr r9, [r9, #4] ; r9 = high word of __pv_phys_offset
a60: e3001000 movw r1, #0
a60: R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC mem_map
a64: e592c000 ldr ip, [r2] ; ip = low word of __pv_phys_offset

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Most of the changes were largely clean ups, and some documentation.
But there were a few features that were added:
Uprobes now work with event triggers and multi buffers and have
support under ftrace and perf.
The big feature is that the function tracer can now be used within the
multi buffer instances. That is, you can now trace some functions in
one buffer, others in another buffer, all functions in a third buffer
and so on. They are basically agnostic from each other. This only
works for the function tracer and not for the function graph trace,
although you can have the function graph tracer running in the top
level buffer (or any tracer for that matter) and have different
function tracing going on in the sub buffers"

"PPC and ARM do not have much going on this time. Most of the cool

ARM has some caching fixes and PPC has transactional memory support in

QEMU will soon get support for MIPS KVM.
For x86 there are optimizations for debug registers, which trigger on
some Windows games, and other important fixes for Windows guests. We
now expose to the guest Broadwell instruction set extensions and also
Intel MPX. There's also a fix/workaround for OS X guests, nested
virtualization features (preemption timer), and a couple kvmclock

It is reworked initial Ben's series for big endian support [1].
Dropped patches that are not directly related to probes and rebased
series on top of Dave Long's ARM uprobes series. Current set of
patches is enough to have functional BE kprobes and uprobes.
One ARM kprobe test fails on Cortex-A15 boards (TC2 and Keystone2 EVM),
while it passes on Pandaboard. The issue is not related to this series
and already present since v3.13-rc7.
v1..v2: Rebased series on top of Dave Long's ARM uprobes series.
Now this series fixes both BE kprobes and BE uprobes.
Tested on Pandaboard ES and TI Keystone2 EVM.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of
it even several weeks. There are a few relatively fresh commits in
it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups.
ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits
and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there
are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too.
A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device
PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be
propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware
interfaces for specifying latency tolerance. That should help systems
with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it
in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints.
There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to
the way in which hotplug notifications are handled. They affect PCI
hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too. The bottom line
is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler
and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks
instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object
that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for.
In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013"
compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work
correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot).
On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and
resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now
going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up
system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we
have a few more optimizations in that area.
Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups
all over. In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by
cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a
bit more robust now.
Specifics:
- Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems
with hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified.
That is necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from
becoming overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power
management features leading to excessive latencies from being used
in some cases.
- Consolidation of the handling of ACPI hotplug notifications for
device objects. This causes all device hotplug notifications to go
through the root notify handler (that was executed for all of them
anyway before) that propagates them to individual subsystems, if
necessary, by executing callbacks provided by those subsystems
(those callbacks are associated with struct acpi_device objects
during device enumeration). As a result, the code in question
becomes both smaller in size and more straightforward and all of
those changes should not affect users.
- ACPICA update, including fixes related to the handling of _PRT in
cases when it is broken and the addition of "Windows 2013" to the
list of supported "features" for _OSI (which is necessary to
support systems that work incorrectly or don't even boot without
it). Changes from Bob Moore and Lv Zheng.
- Consolidation of ACPI _OST handling from Jiang Liu.
- ACPI battery and AC fixes allowing unusual system configurations to
be handled by that code from Alexander Mezin.
- New device IDs for the ACPI LPSS driver from Chiau Ee Chew.
- ACPI fan and thermal optimizations related to system suspend and
resume from Aaron Lu.

- cpuidle fix related to coupled CPUs handling from Paul Burton.
- Asynchronous execution of all device suspend and resume callbacks,
except for ->prepare and ->complete, during system suspend and
resume from Chuansheng Liu.
- Delayed resuming of runtime-suspended devices during system suspend
for the PCI bus type and ACPI PM domain.
- New set of PM helper routines to allow device runtime PM callbacks
to be used during system suspend and resume more easily from Ulf
Hansson.

By default if no fill symbol is given to .align directive in a code
section it fills gap with NOPs. If previous fragment is not
instruction-aligned, additional pre-alignment is done by zero bytes
before NOPs. These zero bytes are marked as data by special symbol $d in
symbol table. Unfortunately GAS assumes that there is only code in the
code section so it "puts back" code symbol $a at the end of this
pre-alignment. So if there is some data after alignment it will be
interpreted as code and will be swapped back to LE for BE8 system during
a final linking.
If explicit fill value is given to .align, the NOP-padding code is
skipped and symbol table does not get messed-up.
So the workaround for this issue:
Use explicit fill value if data should be aligned in the code section.

Due to some unfortunate history, POSIX locks have very strange and
unhelpful semantics. The thing that usually catches people by surprise
is that they are dropped whenever the process closes any file descriptor
associated with the inode.
This is extremely problematic for people developing file servers that
need to implement byte-range locks. Developers often need a "lock
management" facility to ensure that file descriptors are not closed
until all of the locks associated with the inode are finished.
Additionally, "classic" POSIX locks are owned by the process. Locks
taken between threads within the same process won't conflict with one
another, which renders them useless for synchronization between threads.
This patchset adds a new type of lock that attempts to address these
issues. These locks conflict with classic POSIX read/write locks, but
have semantics that are more like BSD locks with respect to inheritance
and behavior on close.
This is implemented primarily by changing how fl_owner field is set for
these locks. Instead of having them owned by the files_struct of the
process, they are instead owned by the filp on which they were acquired.
Thus, they are inherited across fork() and are only released when the
last reference to a filp is put.
These new semantics prevent them from being merged with classic POSIX
locks, even if they are acquired by the same process. These locks will
also conflict with classic POSIX locks even if they are acquired by
the same process or on the same file descriptor.
The new locks are managed using a new set of cmd values to the fcntl()
syscall. The initial implementation of this converts these values to
"classic" cmd values at a fairly high level, and the details are not
exposed to the underlying filesystem. We may eventually want to push
this handing out to the lower filesystem code but for now I don't
see any need for it.
Also, note that with this implementation the new cmd values are only
available via fcntl64() on 32-bit arches. There's little need to
add support for legacy apps on a new interface like this.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();
Fix the hw-breakpoint code in arm by using this latter form of callback
registration.

This patch series adds basic uprobes support to ARM. It is based on
patches developed earlier by Rabin Vincent. That approach of adding
hooks into the kprobes instruction parsing code was not well received.
This approach separates the ARM instruction parsing code in kprobes out
into a separate set of functions which can be used by both kprobes and
uprobes. Both kprobes and uprobes then provide their own semantic action
tables to process the results of the parsing.
