2011-02-26ARM: 6768/1: hw_breakpoint: ensure debug logic is powered up on v7 coresWill Deacon1-3/+23
ARMv7 allows the debug core logic to be powered down and provides the DBGPRSR register so that software can power-up and check the status of the logic. This patch ensures that the debug logic is powered up on ARMv7 cores before we attempt to access the extended debug registers.

2011-02-26ARM: 6767/1: ptrace: fix register indexing in GETHBPREGS requestWill Deacon1-3/+3
The GETHBPREGS ptrace request incorrectly maps its index argument onto the thread's saved debug state when the index != 0. This has not yet been seen from userspace because GDB (the only user of this request) only reads from register 0. This patch fixes the indexing.

2011-02-21ARM: Keep exit text/data around for SMP_ON_UPRussell King1-0/+9
When SMP_ON_UP is used and the spinlocks are inlined, we end up with inline spinlocks in the exit code, with references from the SMP alternatives section to the exit sections. This causes link time errors. Avoid this by placing the exit sections in the init-discarded region.

2011-02-21ARM: 6740/1: Place correctly notes section in the linker scriptPawel Moll1-0/+2
Commit 18991197b4b588255ccabf472ebc84db7b66a19c added --build-id linker option when toolchain supports it. ARM one does, but for some reason places the section at 0 when linker script doesn't mention it explicitly. The 1e621a8e3752367d4aae78a8ab00a18fb2793f34 worked around the problem removing this section from binary image with explicit objcopy options, but it still exists in vmlinux, confusing tools like debuggers and perf. This problem was discussed here: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-May/015994.html http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-May/015994.html but the proposed changes to the linker script were substantial. This patch simply places NOTES (36 bytes long, at least when compiled with CodeSourcery toolchain) between data and bss, which seem to be the right place (and suggested by the sample linker script in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h). It is enough to place it correctly in vmlinux (so debuggers are happy): Section Headers: [11] .data PROGBITS c07ce000 7ce000 020fc0 00 WA 0 0 32 [12] .notes NOTE c07eefc0 7eefc0 000024 00 AX 0 0 4 [13] .bss NOBITS c07ef000 7eefe4 01e628 00 WA 0 0 32 Program Headers: LOAD 0x008000 0xc0008000 0xc0008000 0x7e6fe4 0x805628 RWE 0x8000 NOTE 0x7eefc0 0xc07eefc0 0xc07eefc0 0x00024 0x00024 R E 0x4 Section to Segment mapping: Segment Sections... 00 <...> .data .notes .bss 01 .notes and to get it exposed as /sys/kernel/notes used by perf tools.

2011-01-11ARM: sched_clock: make minsec argument to clocks_calc_mult_shift() zeroRussell King1-1/+1
The purpose of the minsec argument is to prevent 64-bit math overflow when the number of cycles is multiplied up. However, the multipler is 32-bit, and in the sched_clock() case, the cycle counter is up to 32-bit as well. So the math can never overflow. With a value of 60, and clock rates greater than 71MHz, the calculated multiplier is unnecessarily reduced in value, which reduces accuracy by maybe 70ppt. It's almost not worth bothering with as the oscillator driving the counter won't be any more than 1ppm - unless you're using a rubidium lamp or caesium fountain frequency standard. So, set the minsec argument to zero. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2011-01-11ARM: sched_clock: allow init_sched_clock() to be called earlyRussell King2-1/+10

However, in doing so we end up calling mod_timer() before the timer lists are initialized, resulting in an oops.

The addition of the timer can be delayed until after we have more of the kernel initialized - when the normal time sources are initialized. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2010-12-24ARM: 6532/1: Allow machine to specify it's own IRQ handlers at run-timeeric miao2-2/+18
Normally different ARM platform has different way to decode the IRQ hardware status and demultiplex to the corresponding IRQ handler. This is highly optimized by macro irq_handler in entry-armv.S, and each machine defines their own macro to decode the IRQ number. However, this prevents multiple machine classes to be built into a single kernel. By allowing each machine to specify thier own handler, and making function pointer 'handle_arch_irq' to point to it at run time, this can be solved. And introduce CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER to allow both solutions to work. Comparing with the highly optimized macro of irq_handler, the new function must be written with care not to lose too much performance. And the IPI stuff on SMP is expected to move to the provided arch IRQ handler as well. The assembly code to invoke handle_arch_irq is optimized by Russell King.

2010-12-23ARM: sched_clock: provide common infrastructure for sched_clock()Russell King2-0/+70
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.

2010-12-20ARM: localtimer: clean up local timer on hot unplugRussell King2-11/+18
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. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2010-12-20ARM: 6516/1: Allow SMP_ON_UP to work with Thumb-2 kernels.Dave Martin2-5/+12
* __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.) Tested using a single generic realview kernel on: ARM RealView PB-A8 (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL={n,y}) ARM RealView PBX-A9 (SMP) Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org> Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-12-20ARM: CPU hotplug: ensure correct ordering of unplugRussell King1-1/+3
Don't call idle_task_exit() with interrupts disabled, and ensure that we have a memory barrier after interrupts are disabled but before signalling that this CPU has shut down. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
