Will Deacon 72dc53acd5 ARM: cache: detect VIPT aliasing I-cache on ARMv6
The current cache detection code does not check for an aliasing
I-cache if the D-cache is found to be VIPT aliasing.

This patch fixes the problem by always checking for an aliasing
I-cache on v6 and later.

Will Deacon 254cdf8ec3 ARM: hwcaps: add new HWCAP defines for ARMv7-A
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.

cpu_proc_init() does processor specific initialization, which we do
at boot time.  We have been omitting to do this on resume, which
causes some of this initialization to be skipped.  We've also been
skipping this on SMP initialization too.

Ensure that cpu_proc_init() is always called appropriately by
moving it into cpu_init(), and move cpu_init() to a more appropriate
point in the boot initialization.

Grant Likely 93c02ab40a arm/dt: probe for platforms via the device tree
If a dtb is passed to the kernel then the kernel needs to iterate
through compiled-in mdescs looking for one that matches and move the
dtb data to a safe location before it gets accidentally overwritten by
the kernel.

This patch creates a new function, setup_machine_fdt() which is
analogous to the setup_machine_atags() created in the previous patch.
It does all the early setup needed to use a device tree machine
description.

v5: - Print warning with neither dtb nor atags are passed to the kernel
    - Fix bug in setting of __machine_arch_type to the selected machine,
      not just the last machine in the list.
      Reported-by: Tixy <tixy@yxit.co.uk>
    - Copy command line directly into boot_command_line instead of cmd_line
v4: - Dump some output when a matching machine_desc cannot be found
v3: - Added processing of reserved list.
    - Backed out the v2 change that copied instead of reserved the
      dtb.  dtb is reserved again and the real problem was fixed by
      using alloc_bootmem_align() for early allocation of RAM for
      unflattening the tree.
    - Moved cmd_line and initrd changes to earlier patch to make series
      bisectable.
v2: Changed to save the dtb by copying into an allocated buffer.
    - Since the dtb will very likely be passed in the first 16k of ram
      where the interrupt vectors live, memblock_reserve() is
      insufficient to protect the dtb data.

Olaf Hering 93a72052be crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn
The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
driver modules.

Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
usable for modules.

Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
and powerpc.

Nicolas Pitre 3572bea8cb ARM: 6748/1: ignore mdesc->boot_params if out of range
The initial MMU table created in head.S contains a 1 MB mapping at the
start of memory to let the early kernel boot code access the boot params
specified by mdesc->boot_params.

When using CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT it is possible for the kernel to
have a different idea of where the start of memory is at run time, making
the compile-time determined mdesc->boot_params pointing to a memory area
which is not mapped.  Any access to the boot params in that case will
fault and silently hang the kernel at that point.  It is therefore a
better idea to simply ignore mdesc->boot_params in that case and give
the kernel a chance to print some diagnostic on the console later.

If the bootloader provides a valid pointer in r2 to the kernel then this
is used instead of mdesc->boot_params, and an explicit mapping is already
created in the initial MMU table for it.  It is therefore a good idea to
use that facility when using a relocated kernel.

Russell King 6fc31d5444 ARM: Defer lookup of machine_type to setup.c
Since the debug macros no longer depend on the machine type information,
the machine type lookup can be deferred to setup_arch() in setup.c which
simplifies the code somewhat.

We also move the __error_a functionality into setup.c for displaying a
message when a bad machine ID is passed to the kernel via the LL debug
code.  We also log this into the kernel ring buffer which makes it
possible to retrieve the message via a debugger.

eric miao 521086412e ARM: 6532/1: Allow machine to specify it's own IRQ handlers at run-time
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.

This patch adds a cpu_has_aliasing_icache function, which is called from

Do this using an 'alternatives' scheme, where the kernel code and data

thereby rendering the problematical code ineffectual.  We use the linker

Set HWCAP_TLS flags if hardware TLS is available and test for
it if CONFIG_CPU_32v6K is not set for V6.

Note that we set the TLS instruction in __kuser_get_tls
dynamically as suggested by Jamie Lokier <jamie@shareable.org>.

Also the __switch_to code is optimized out in most cases as
suggested by Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>.

Uwe Kleine-König 73a65b3f85 ARM: deprecate support for old way to pass kernel parameters
This was deprecated in 2001 and announced to live on for 5 years.

For now provide a kernel parameter for those who still need it.

Alexander Holler 92d2040d78 ARM: 5939/1: ARM: Add option CMDLINE_FORCE to force usage of the in-kernel cmdline
Add an option to force usage of the in-kernel cmdline even if the boot
loader passes another command string to the kernel.

Useful if someone cannot or don't want to change the
command-line options of the boot loader but is able to change
the kernel.

Santosh Shilimkar 6c09f09d44 ARM: 5938/1: ARM: L2: export outer_cache_fns
The 'outer_cache' variable is needed by the outer_inv_range(),
outer_clean_range() and outer_flush_range() functions, which are
declared as inline in asm/cacheflush.h.  Otherwise drivers built
as a loadable module, which access these functions, will have
an undefined symbol.
