2010-12-06ARM: hw_breakpoint: don't advertise reserved breakpointsWill Deacon
To permit handling of watchpoint exceptions without signalling a debugger, it is necessary to reserve breakpoint registers for in-kernel use only. This patch ensures that we record and subtract the number of reserved breakpoints from the number of usable breakpoint registers that we advertise to userspace via the ptrace API.

2010-12-06ARM: hw_breakpoint: disable preemption during debug exception handlingWill Deacon
On ARM, debug exceptions occur in the form of data or prefetch aborts. One difference is that debug exceptions require access to per-cpu banked registers and data structures which are not saved in the low-level exception code. For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, there is an unlikely scenario that the debug handler ends up running on a different CPU from the one that originally signalled the event, resulting in random data being read from the wrong registers. This patch adds a debug_entry macro to the low-level exception handling code which checks whether the taken exception is a debug exception. If it is, the preempt count for the faulting process is incremented. After the debug handler has finished, the count is decremented.

2010-12-06ARM: hw_breakpoint: correct and simplify alignment fixup codeWill Deacon
The current hw_breakpoint code tries to fix up the alignment of breakpoints so that we can make use of sparse byte-address-select bits in the control register and give the illusion that we can set breakpoints on unaligned addresses. Although this works on v6 cores, v7 forbids this behaviour, instead requiring breakpoints to be set on aligned addresses and have contiguous byte-address-select ranges depending on the instruction set in use. For ARM the only supported size is 4 bytes, whilst Thumb-2 also permits 2 byte breakpoints (watchpoints can be of 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes long). This patch simplifies the alignment fixup code so that we require addresses to be aligned to the size of the corresponding breakpoint. This allows us to handle the common case of breaking on a half-word aligned Thumb-2 instruction and also allows us to set byte watchpoints on arbitrary addresses.

2010-12-06ARM: hw_breakpoint: reset control registers in hotplug pathWill Deacon
The ARMv7 debug architecture doesn't make any guarantees about the contents of debug control registers following a debug logic reset. This patch ensures that we reset the control registers when a cpu comes ONLINE (for example, with hotplug) so that when we enable monitor mode while inserting a breakpoint we won't exhibit random behaviour.

2010-12-06ARM: hw_breakpoint: ensure OS lock is clear before writing to debug registersWill Deacon
ARMv7 architects a system for saving and restoring the debug registers across low-power modes. At the heart of this system is a lock register which, when set, forbids writes to the debug registers. While locked, writes to debug registers via the co-processor interface will result in undefined instruction traps. Linux currently doesn't make use of this feature because we update the debug registers on context switch anyway, however the status of the lock is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED on reset. This patch ensures that the lock is cleared during boot so that we can write to the debug registers safely. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

2010-12-05ARM: implement support for read-mostly sectionsRussell King
As our SMP implementation uses MESI protocols.

In other words, cache lines associated with read-mostly data are expected to spend most of their time in shared state. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-12-04ARM: 6521/1: perf: use raw_spinlock_t for pmu_lockWill Deacon
For kernels built with PREEMPT_RT, critical sections protected by standard spinlocks are preemptible. This is not acceptable on perf as (a) we may be scheduled onto a different CPU whilst reading/writing banked PMU registers and (b) the latency when reading the PMU registers becomes unpredictable. This patch upgrades the pmu_lock spinlock to a raw_spinlock instead.

Thumb-2. The 32-bit conditional branches in Thumb-2 have a shorter range (+/-512K) than their ARM counterparts (+/-32MB). The linker does not currently generate trampolines to extend the range of these Thumb-2 conditional branches, resulting in link errors when vmlinux is sufficiently large, e.g.: head.o:(.text+0x464): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 This patch forces the longer-range, unconditional branch encoding by use of an explicit IT instruction.

2010-11-30ARM: 6500/1: Thumb-2: Correct data alignment for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL in ↵Dave Martin
kernel/head.S Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction.

2010-11-26perf, arch: Cleanup perf-pmu init vs lockup-detectorPeter Zijlstra
The perf hardware pmu got initialized at various points in the boot, some before early_initcall() some after (notably arch_initcall). The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall() and expects the hardware pmu to be present. Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit initcall right after that.

2010-11-04ARM: 6384/1: Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUsCatalin Marinas
This patch removes the domain switching functionality via the set_fs and __switch_to functions on cores that have a TLS register. Currently, the ioremap and vmalloc areas share the same level 1 page tables and therefore have the same domain (DOMAIN_KERNEL). When the kernel domain is modified from Client to Manager (via the __set_fs or in the __switch_to function), the XN (eXecute Never) bit is overridden and newer CPUs can speculatively prefetch the ioremap'ed memory. Linux performs the kernel domain switching to allow user-specific functions (copy_to/from_user, get/put_user etc.) to access kernel memory. In order for these functions to work with the kernel domain set to Client, the patch modifies the LDRT/STRT and related instructions to the LDR/STR ones. The user pages access rights are also modified for kernel read-only access rather than read/write so that the copy-on-write mechanism still works. CPU_USE_DOMAINS gets disabled only if the hardware has a TLS register (CPU_32v6K is defined) since writing the TLS value to the high vectors page isn't possible. The user addresses passed to the kernel are checked by the access_ok() function so that they do not point to the kernel space.
