Peter Zijlstra e360adbe29 irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.

The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

Matt Fleming 86c8c04792 sh: oprofile: Use perf-events oprofile backend
Now that we've got a generic perf-events based oprofile backend we might
as well make use of it seeing as SH doesn't do anything special with its
oprofile backend. Also introduce a new CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS symbol so
that we can fallback to using the timer interrupt for oprofile if the
CPU doesn't support perf events.

Also, to avoid a section mismatch warning we need to annotate
oprofile_arch_exit() with an __exit marker.

Linus Torvalds 5336377d62 modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race
With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

Peter Zijlstra a4eaf7f146 perf: Rework the PMU methods
Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.

The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
the generic stopped state.

This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).

It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).

The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:

 1) We disable the counter:
    a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
    b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state

 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events

David Howells d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

FUJITA Tomonori 3b9c6c11f5 dma-mapping: remove dma_is_consistent API
Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt).  So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers.  We have only one user of the API in tree.  Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.

Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all.  It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all.  It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.

Let's remove this API.

dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment.  Architectures
defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN).  So we
can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.

Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly.
dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment.  So
fully-coherent architectures should return 1.  This patch also fixes this
issue.

FUJITA Tomonori a6eb9fe105 dma-mapping: rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN
Now each architecture has the own dma_get_cache_alignment implementation.

dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment.  Architectures
define it as ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (it's used to make sure that malloc'ed
buffer is DMA-safe; the buffer doesn't share a cache with the others).  So
we can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.

This patch:

dma_get_cache_alignment() needs to know if an architecture defines
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN or not (needs to know if architecture has DMA
alignment restriction).  However, slab.h define ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN if
architectures doesn't define it.

Let's rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is used only in the internals of slab/slob/slub
(except for crypto).

hyc@symas.com 26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:
