The str_pc_offset value is architecturally defined on ARMv7 onwards so
we can make it a compile time constant. This means on Thumb kernels the
runtime checking code isn't needed, which saves us from having to fix it
to work for Thumb.

This file will contain the instruction decoding and emulation code
which is common to both ARM and Thumb instruction sets.
For now, we will just move over condition_checks from kprobes-arm.c
This table is also renamed to kprobe_condition_checks to avoid polluting

Later, we will be adding a considerable amount of internal
implementation definitions to kprobe header files and it would be good
to have these in local header file along side the source code, rather
than pollute the existing header which is include by all users of
kprobes.
To this end, we add arch/arm/kernel/kprobes.h and move into this the
existing internal defintions from arch/arm/include/asm/kprobes.h

This patch allows undef_hook's to be specified for 32-bit Thumb
instructions and also to be used for thumb kernel-side code.
32-bit Thumb instructions are specified in the form:
((first_half << 16 ) | second_half)
which matches the layout used by the ARM ARM.
ptrace was handling 32-bit Thumb instructions by hooking the first
halfword and manually checking the second half. This method would be
broken by this patch so it is migrated to make use of the new Thumb-2
support.

When __irq_svc - or any of the other exception handling assembly code -
calls the C code, the stack pointer will be pointing at the pt_regs
structure.
All the entry points into C code from the exception handling code are
marked with __exception or __exception_irq_enter to indicate that they
are one of the functions which has pt_regs above them.
Normally, when you've entered asm_do_IRQ() you will have this stack
layout (higher address towards top):
pt_regs
asm_do_IRQ frame
If you insert a C function between the exception assembly code and
asm_do_IRQ, you end up with this stack layout instead:
pt_regs
your function frame
asm_do_IRQ frame
This means when we unwind, we'll get to asm_do_IRQ, and rather than
dumping out the pt_regs, we'll dump out your functions stack frame
instead, because that's what is above the asm_do_IRQ stack frame
rather than the expected pt_regs structure.
The fix is to introduce handle_IRQ() for no exception stack dump, so
it can be called with MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER is selected and a C function
is between the assembly code and the actual IRQ handling code.

Fix a hole in the VFP thread migration. Lets define two threads.
Thread 1, we'll call 'interesting_thread' which is a thread which is
running on CPU0, using VFP (so vfp_current_hw_state[0] =
&interesting_thread->vfpstate) and gets migrated off to CPU1, where
it continues execution of VFP instructions.
Thread 2, we'll call 'new_cpu0_thread' which is the thread which takes
over on CPU0. This has also been using VFP, and last used VFP on CPU0,
but doesn't use it again.
The following code will be executed twice:
cpu = thread->cpu;
/*
* On SMP, if VFP is enabled, save the old state in
* case the thread migrates to a different CPU. The
* restoring is done lazily.
*/
if ((fpexc & FPEXC_EN) && vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]) {
vfp_save_state(vfp_current_hw_state[cpu], fpexc);
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu]->hard.cpu = cpu;
}
/*
* Thread migration, just force the reloading of the
* state on the new CPU in case the VFP registers
* contain stale data.
*/
if (thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu != cpu)
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] = NULL;
The first execution will be on CPU0 to switch away from 'interesting_thread'.
interesting_thread->cpu will be 0.
So, vfp_current_hw_state[0] points at interesting_thread->vfpstate.
The hardware state will be saved, along with the CPU number (0) that
it was executing on.
'thread' will be 'new_cpu0_thread' with new_cpu0_thread->cpu = 0.
Also, because it was executing on CPU0, new_cpu0_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0,
and so the thread migration check is not triggered.
This means that vfp_current_hw_state[0] remains pointing at interesting_thread.
The second execution will be on CPU1 to switch _to_ 'interesting_thread'.
So, 'thread' will be 'interesting_thread' and interesting_thread->cpu now
will be 1. The previous thread executing on CPU1 is not relevant to this
so we shall ignore that.
We get to the thread migration check. Here, we discover that
interesting_thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0, yet interesting_thread->cpu is
now 1, indicating thread migration. We set vfp_current_hw_state[1] to
NULL.
So, at this point vfp_current_hw_state[] contains the following:
[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
[1] = NULL
Our interesting thread now executes a VFP instruction, takes a fault
which loads the state into the VFP hardware. Now, through the assembly
we now have:
[0] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
[1] = &interesting_thread->vfpstate
CPU1 stops due to ptrace (and so saves its VFP state) using the thread
switch code above), and CPU0 calls vfp_sync_hwstate().
if (vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &thread->vfpstate) {
vfp_save_state(&thread->vfpstate, fpexc | FPEXC_EN);
BANG, we corrupt interesting_thread's VFP state by overwriting the
more up-to-date state saved by CPU1 with the old VFP state from CPU0.
Fix this by ensuring that we have sane semantics for the various state
describing variables:
1. vfp_current_hw_state[] points to the current owner of the context
information stored in each CPUs hardware, or NULL if that state
information is invalid.
2. thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu always contains the most recent CPU number
which the state was loaded into or NR_CPUS if no CPU owns the state.
So, for a particular CPU to be a valid owner of the VFP state for a
particular thread t, two things must be true:
vfp_current_hw_state[cpu] == &t->vfpstate && t->vfpstate.hard.cpu == cpu.
and that is valid from the moment a CPU loads the saved VFP context
into the hardware. This gives clear and consistent semantics to
interpreting these variables.
This patch also fixes thread copying, ensuring that t->vfpstate.hard.cpu
is invalidated, otherwise CPU0 may believe it was the last owner. The
hole can happen thus:
- thread1 runs on CPU2 using VFP, migrates to CPU3, exits and thread_info
freed.
- New thread allocated from a previously running thread on CPU2, reusing
memory for thread1 and copying vfp.hard.cpu.
At this point, the following are true:
new_thread1->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 2
&new_thread1->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[2]
Lastly, this also addresses thread flushing in a similar way to thread
copying. Hole is:
- thread runs on CPU0, using VFP, migrates to CPU1 but does not use VFP.
- thread calls execve(), so thread flush happens, leaving
vfp_current_hw_state[0] intact. This vfpstate is memset to 0 causing
thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu = 0.
- thread migrates back to CPU0 before using VFP.
At this point, the following are true:
thread->vfpstate.hard.cpu == 0
&thread->vfpstate == vfp_current_hw_state[0]

Modern ARMv7-A cores can optionally implement these new hardware
features:
- VFPv4:
The latest version of the ARMv7 vector floating-point extensions,
including hardware support for fused multiple accumulate. D16 or D32
variants may be implemented.
- Integer divide:
The SDIV and UDIV instructions provide signed and unsigned integer
division in hardware. When implemented, these instructions may be
available in either both Thumb and ARM, or Thumb only.
This patch adds new HWCAP defines to describe these new features. The
integer divide capabilities are split into two bits for ARM and Thumb
respectively. Whilst HWCAP_IDIVA should never be set if HWCAP_IDIVT is
clear, separating the bits makes it easier to interpret from userspace.

Before the patch:
twd_timer_rate / 1000000 = 123
(twd_timer_rate / 1000000) % 100 = 23
Result: 123.23MHz.
After being fixed:
twd_timer_rate / 1000000 = 123
(twd_timer_rate / 10000) % 100 = 45

If an ARM system has multiple cpus in the same socket and the
kernel is booted with maxcpus=1, secondary cpus are possible but
not present due to how platform_smp_prepare_cpus() is called.
Since most typical ARM processors don't actually support physical
hotplug, initialize the present map to be equal to the possible
map in generic ARM SMP code. Also, always call
platform_smp_prepare_cpus() as long as max_cpus is non-zero (0
means no SMP) to allow platform code to do any SMP setup.
After applying this patch it's possible to boot an ARM system
with maxcpus=1 on the command line and then hotplug in secondary
cpus via sysfs. This is more in line with how x86 does things.

No kernel code can run on the local CPU until we've re-entered the

take any locks etc. So, the kernel doesn't care about the IRQ mask

The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.
For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.
As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

Here, pmu1 cannot be released, and pmu2 cannot be reserved.
This patch modifies register_pmu to reject registrations where a PMU is
already present, preventing this problem. PMUs which can have multiple
instances should not use the PMU reservation framework.

Currently, PMU platform_device reservation relies on some minor abuse
of the platform_device::id field for determining the type of PMU. This
is problematic for device tree based probing, where the ID cannot be
controlled.
This patch removes reliance on the id field, and depends on each PMU's
platform driver to figure out which type it is. As all PMUs handled by
the current platform_driver name "arm-pmu" are CPU PMUs, this
convention is hardcoded. New PMU types can be supported through the use
of {of,platform}_device_id tables

There's no point checking to see whether IRQs were masked in the parent
context when returning from IRQ handling - the fact that we're handling
an IRQ means that the parent context must have had IRQs unmasked.

irq_enter() and irq_exit() already take care of the preempt_count
handling for interrupts, which increment and decrement the hardirq
bits of the preempt count. So we can remove the preempt count handing
in our IRQ entry/exit assembly, like x86 did some 9 years ago.

Replace r4 with ip for calling abort helpers - ip is allowed to be
corrupted by called functions in the ABI, so it makes more sense to
use such a register.
