'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.
Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.
As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.
This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.

When running perf across all cpus with backtracing (-a -g), sometimes we
get samples without associated backtraces:
23.44% init [kernel] [k] restore
11.46% init eeba0c [k] 0x00000000eeba0c
6.77% swapper [kernel] [k] .perf_ctx_adjust_freq

4.69% perf libc-2.9.so [.] 0x0000000006bb8c
|
|--11.11%-- 0xfffa941bbbc
It turns out the backtrace code has a check for the idle task and the IP
sampling does not. This creates problems when profiling an interrupt
heavy workload (in my case 10Gbit ethernet) since we get no backtraces
for interrupts received while idle (ie most of the workload).
Right now x86 and sh check that current is not NULL, which should never
happen so remove that too.
Idle task's exclusion must be performed from the core code, on top
of perf_event_attr:exclude_idle.

Presently trapped I/O is only registered if it's not explicitly disabled
for the platforms that select it openly. From the fault path this runs
through an address lookup before figuring out that nothing matches and
falls back through the error path, but we can forego the lookup
completely by testing if it's been explicitly disabled. This provides a
measurable speedup for things like qemu that rely on runtime disabling.

Now that cached_to_uncached works as advertized in 32-bit mode and we're

Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
This provides a variable for tracking the uncached mapping size, and uses
it for pretty printing the uncached lowmem range. Beyond this, we'll also

P2 becomes usable when constructing unrelated mappings.
Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
This effectively neutralizes P2 by getting rid of P1 identity mapping
for all available memory and instead only establishes a single unbuffered
PMB entry (16MB -- the smallest available) that covers the kernel.
As using segmentation for abusing caching attributes in drivers is no
longer supported (and there are no drivers that can be enabled in 32-bit
mode that do this), this provides us with all of the uncached access
needs by the kernel itself.
Drivers and their ilk need to specify their caching attributes when
remapping through page tables, as usual.
Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
All of the cached/uncached mapping setup is duplicated for each size, and
also misses out on the 16MB case. Rather than duplicating the same iter

More and more boards are going to start shipping that boot with the MMU
in 32BIT mode by default. Previously we relied on the bootloader to
setup PMB mappings for use by the kernel but we also need to cater for
boards whose bootloaders don't set them up.
If CONFIG_PMB_LEGACY is not enabled we have full control over our PMB
mappings and can compress our address space. Usually, the distance
between the the cached and uncached mappings of RAM is always 512MB,
however we can compress the distance to be the amount of RAM on the
board.
pmb_init() now becomes much simpler. It no longer has to calculate any
mappings, it just has to synchronise the software PMB table with the
hardware.

This introduces some much overdue chainsawing of the fixed PMB support.
fixed PMB was introduced initially to work around the fact that dynamic
PMB mode was relatively broken, though they were never intended to
converge. The main areas where there are differences are whether the
system is booted in 29-bit mode or 32-bit mode, and whether legacy
mappings are to be preserved. Any system booting in true 32-bit mode will
not care about legacy mappings, so these are roughly decoupled.
Regardless of the entry point, PMB and 32BIT are directly related as far
as the kernel is concerned, so we also switch back to having one select
the other.
With legacy mappings iterated through and applied in the initialization
path it's now possible to finally merge the two implementations and
permit dynamic remapping overtop of remaining entries regardless of
whether boot mappings are crafted by hand or inherited from the boot
loader.

As init_fpu() now performs a slab allocation a secondary lighterweight

Now when the sh-sci driver can do early serial output,
get rid of the old duplicated code. This patch is V2 and
removes support for "earlyprintk=serial" together with
the following kconfig options:
CONFIG_EARLY_SCIF_CONSOLE
CONFIG_EARLY_SCIF_CONSOLE_PORT
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK
With this patch applied "earlyprintk=" support is always
built-in the SuperH kernel. For this to work the serial
driver must have early platform support and in the case
of sh-sci the serial console needs to be enabled:
CONFIG_SERIAL_SH_SCI_CONSOLE=y
So after enabling the SuperH SCI console kconfig option
you also need to point out port using the kernel command
line: "earlyprintk=sh-sci.N[,baudrate][,keep]"
Remember that clocks may be disabled by the boot loader
so you may have to do some board specific static clock
setup before earlyprintk will work on your platform.

A number of small optimisations to FPU handling, in particular:
- move the task USEDFPU flag from the thread_info flags field (which
is accessed asynchronously to the thread) to a new status field,
which is only accessed by the thread itself. This allows locking to
be removed in most cases, or can be reduced to a preempt_lock().
This mimics the i386 behaviour.
- move the modification of regs->sr and thread_info->status flags out
of save_fpu() to __unlazy_fpu(). This gives the compiler a better
chance to optimise things, as well as making save_fpu() symmetrical
with restore_fpu() and init_fpu().
- implement prepare_to_copy(), so that when creating a thread, we can
unlazy the FPU prior to copying the thread data structures.
Also make sure that the FPU is disabled while in the kernel, in
particular while booting, and for newly created kernel threads,

context switches was reduced from 50 to 45 seconds.

sh port of the sLeAZY-fpu feature currently implemented for some architectures
such us i386.
Right now the SH kernel has a 100% lazy fpu behaviour.
This is of course great for applications that have very sporadic or no FPU use.
However for very frequent FPU users... you take an extra trap every context
switch.
The patch below adds a simple heuristic to this code: after 5 consecutive
context switches of FPU use, the lazy behavior is disabled and the context
gets restored every context switch.
After 256 switches, this is reset and the 100% lazy behavior is returned.
Tests with LMbench showed no regression.
I saw a little improvement due to the prefetching (~2%).
The tests below also show that, with this sLeazy patch, indeed,
the number of FPU exceptions is reduced.
To test this. I hacked the lat_ctx LMBench to use the FPU a little more.

For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler. Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

The typename member of struct irq_chip was kept for migration purposes
and is obsolete since more than 2 years. Fix up the leftovers.

Resolve the conflict between v2.6.32-rc7 where dn_def_dev_handler
gets a small bug fix and the sysctl tree where I am removing all
sysctl strategy routines.
Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code. Remove them.
Also add an C99 named initializer to the child member of unaligned_root
to prevent chaos as the ctl_table definition changes over time.

sh64 doesn't use GENERIC_BUG, which presently causes the handle_BUG()
code to blow up. Fix up the dependencies and get it all building again.

This fixes up the build and behaviour for various configurations. Namely
the CONFIG_32BIT cases where legacy mappings do not exist, as well as the
sh64 build.

The dwarf unwinder presently attempts to provide a sane PC value if none
is provided, however the logic is broken and cases where a previous valid
dwarf frame exists along with a bogus PC value can still proceed. This
fixes up the test and prevents the unwinder from blowing up.

This implements preliminary support for perf callchains (at the moment
only the kernel side is implemented). The actual implementation itself is
just a simple wrapper around the unwinder API, which allows for callchain
generation with or without the dwarf unwinder.
