9e0304e388 arch/tile: big-endian: properly bswap instruction bundles when backtracing
Instruction bundles are always little-endian, even when running in
big-endian mode.  I missed this internal bug fix when cherry-picking
the big-endian code to return to the community.

6699c8cda3 tile: fix bug in get_user() for 4-byte values
The definition of 32-bit values in the 64-bit tilegx architecture is that
they should be sign-extended regardless of whether they are considered
signed or unsigned by the compiler.  Accordingly, we need to use an
"ld4s" rather than "ld4u" to load and sign-extend for get_user().

This fixes glibc bug 14238 (see http://sourceware.org/bugzilla),
introduced during the 3.5 merge window.

efee984c27 new helper: signal_delivered()
Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

9f1d62bed7 tile: fix bug where fls(0) was not returning 0
This is because __builtin_clz(0) returns 64 for the "undefined" case
of 0, since the builtin just does a right-shift 32 and "clz" instruction.
So, use the alpha approach of casting to u32 and using __builtin_clzll().

b8ace0833f arch/tile: fix hardwall for tilegx and generalize for idn and ipi
The hardwall drain code was not properly implemented for tilegx,
just tilepro, so you couldn't reliably restart an application that
made use of the udn.

In addition, the code was only applicable to the udn (user dynamic
network).  On tilegx there is a second user network that is available
(the "idn"), and there is support for having I/O shims deliver
user-level interrupts to applications ("ipi") which functions in a
very similar way to the inter-core permissions used for udn/idn.
So this change also generalizes the code from supporting just the udn
to supports udn/idn/ipi on tilegx.

By default we now use /dev/hardwall/{udn,idn,ipi} with separate
minor numbers for the three devices.

621b195515 arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamically
This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new
arch_make_huge_pte() method.  The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a
given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive
pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry.

One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels
of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument
on the boot command line.  A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux
to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of
the page table.

To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can
handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of
memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem.

As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support,
which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor
of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

d5d14ed6f2 arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page size
This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context()
API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor.  Clients
can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they
install a new context.  In practice, the page size is fixed at
kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every
time a new page table is installed.

The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract
macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables.  For
example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old
HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL.  The various PFN routines have been eliminated and
only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed
in fixed 2KB "page" size).  The page-table management macros are
renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with
the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single
place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves.

I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken
(it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work
correctly with other page sizes.

Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with
a conflicting page size.  (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.)

47d632f9f8 arch/tile: optimize get_user/put_user and friends
Use direct load/store for the get_user/put_user.

Previously, we would call out to a helper routine that would do the
appropriate thing and then return, handling the possible exception
internally.  Now we inline the load or store, along with a "we succeeded"
indication in a register; if the load or store faults, we write a
"we failed" indication into the same register and then return to the
following instruction.  This is more efficient and gives us more compact
code, as well as being more in line with what other architectures do.

The special futex assembly source file for TILE-Gx also disappears in
this change; we just use the same inlining idiom there as well, putting
the appropriate atomic operations directly into futex_atomic_op_inuser()
(and thus into the FUTEX_WAIT function).

The underlying atomic copy_from_user, copy_to_user functions were
renamed using the (cryptic) x86 convention as copy_from_user_ll and
copy_to_user_ll.

73636b1aac arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabled
The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally,
using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and
from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure
holding a pgd (aka pte).  Several existing pmd methods are moved into
this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined
that are used by the transparent hugepage framework.

The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit.  The bit is used to indicate a
transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages.

This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the
generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect.

51007004f4 arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections less
In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an
interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through
a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical
section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need
to support this path in the kernel.  (On tilepro we did implement
that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.)

In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's
where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical
section, but this change cleans up a few things.  The IRQ_ENABLE
macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a
deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can
read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section.
The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead
of interrupt critical sections.  And, the interrupt-entry code is
changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after
we have released the interrupt critical section.

ec0d7f18ab Merge branch 'x86-fpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull fpu state cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree streamlines further aspects of FPU handling by eliminating
  the prepare_to_copy() complication and moving that logic to
  arch_dup_task_struct().

  It also fixes the FPU dumps in threaded core dumps, removes and old
  (and now invalid) assumption plus micro-optimizes the exit path by
  avoiding an FPU save for dead tasks."

Fixed up trivial add-add conflict in arch/sh/kernel/process.c that came
in because we now do the FPU handling in arch_dup_task_struct() rather
than the legacy (and now gone) prepare_to_copy().

Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest change is the cleanup/simplification of the load-balancer:
  instead of the current practice of architectures twiddling scheduler
  internal data structures and providing the scheduler domains in
  colorfully inconsistent ways, we now have generic scheduler code in
  kernel/sched/core.c:sched_init_numa() that looks at the architecture's
  node_distance() parameters and (while not fully trusting it) deducts a
  NUMA topology from it.

  This inevitably changes balancing behavior - hopefully for the better.

  There are various smaller optimizations, cleanups and fixlets as well"

764e0da14f timers: Fixup the Kconfig consolidation fallout
Sigh, I missed to check which architecture Kconfig files actually
include the core Kconfig file. There are a few which did not. So we
broke them.

Instead of adding the includes to those, we are better off to move the
include to init/Kconfig like we did already with irqs and others.

This does not change anything for the architectures using the old
style periodic timer mode. It just solves the build wreckage there.

For those architectures which use the clock events infrastructure it
moves the include of the core Kconfig file to "General setup" which is
a way more logical place than having it at random locations specified
by the architecture specific Kconfigs.

e6d9668e11 tilegx: enable SYSCALL_WRAPPERS support
Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was
necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules
for 32-bit values.  The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to
setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid"
mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code.
SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with
proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem.

On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed
in 2.6.28.6.  The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029.

55ccf3fe3f fork: move the real prepare_to_copy() users to arch_dup_task_struct()
Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of
the architectures and the rest following the x86 model of flushing the extended
register state like fpu there.

Remove it and use the arch_dup_task_struct() instead.

fc327e268f arch/tile: fix up some issues in calling do_work_pending()
First, we were at risk of handling thread-info flags, in particular
do_signal(), when returning from kernel space.  This could happen
after a failed kernel_execve(), or when forking a kernel thread.
The fix is to test in do_work_pending() for user_mode() and return
immediately if so; we already had this test for one of the flags,
so I just hoisted it to the top of the function.

Second, if a ptraced process updated the callee-saved registers
in the ptregs struct and then processed another thread-info flag, we
would overwrite the modifications with the original callee-saved
registers.  To fix this, we add a register to note if we've already
saved the registers once, and skip doing it on additional passes
through the loop.  To avoid a performance hit from the couple of
extra instructions involved, I modified the GET_THREAD_INFO() macro
to be guaranteed to be one instruction, then bundled it with adjacent
instructions, yielding an overall net savings.

cb83b629ba sched/numa: Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain support
The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an
ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't
reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected
machines out there today this might make a difference.

Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance().

Since there's no fixed numa layers anymore, the static SD_NODE_INIT
and SD_ALLNODES_INIT aren't usable anymore, the new code tries to
construct something similar and scales some values either on the
number of cpus in the domain and/or the node_distance() ratio.
