653d48b221 arm: fix really nasty sigreturn bug
If a signal hits us outside of a syscall and another gets delivered
when we are in sigreturn (e.g. because it had been in sa_mask for
the first one and got sent to us while we'd been in the first handler),
we have a chance of returning from the second handler to location one
insn prior to where we ought to return.  If r0 happens to contain -513
(-ERESTARTNOINTR), sigreturn will get confused into doing restart
syscall song and dance.

Incredible joy to debug, since it manifests as random, infrequent and
very hard to reproduce double execution of instructions in userland
code...

The fix is simple - mark it "don't bother with restarts" in wrapper,
i.e. set r8 to 0 in sys_sigreturn and sys_rt_sigreturn wrappers,
suppressing the syscall restart handling on return from these guys.
They can't legitimately return a restart-worthy error anyway.

Testcase:
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <signal.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <sys/time.h>
	#include <errno.h>

	void f(int n)
	{
		__asm__ __volatile__(
			"ldr r0, [%0]\n"
			"b 1f\n"
			"b 2f\n"
			"1:b .\n"
			"2:\n" : : "r"(&n));
	}

	void handler1(int sig) { }
	void handler2(int sig) { raise(1); }
	void handler3(int sig) { exit(0); }

	main()
	{
		struct sigaction s = {.sa_handler = handler2};
		struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} };
		struct itimerval t2 = { .it_value = {2} };

		signal(1, handler1);

		sigemptyset(&s.sa_mask);
		sigaddset(&s.sa_mask, 1);
		sigaction(SIGALRM, &s, NULL);

		signal(SIGVTALRM, handler3);

		setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &t1, NULL);
		setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &t2, NULL);

		f(-513); /* -ERESTARTNOINTR */

		write(1, "buggered\n", 9);
		return 1;
	}

65b4711ff5 ARM: 6352/1: perf: fix event validation
The validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the
following problems:

1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost.
2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or
    breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation,
    causing the group to fail.

This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the
PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.

418cf646c9 ARM: 6343/1: wire up fanotify and prlimit64 syscalls on ARM
The 2.6.36-rc kernel added three new system calls:
fanotify_init, fanotify_mark, and prlimit64.  This patch
wires them up on ARM.

The only non-trivial issue here is the u64 argument to
sys_fanotify_mark(), but it is the 3rd argument and thus
passed in r2/r3 in both kernel and user space, so it causes
no problems.

Tested with a 2.6.36-rc2 EABI kernel on an ixp4xx machine.

25d3584797 ARM: 6330/1: perf: reword comments relating to perf_event_do_pending
This is purely a cosmetic change to the ARM perf backend because the current
comments about the relationship between NMIs, interrupt context and
perf_event_do_pending are misleading.

This patch updates the comments so that they reflect what the code
actually does (which is in line with other architectures).

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.

21d93e2e29 ARM: 6329/1: wire up sys_accept4() on ARM
sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated
to include it.  The number and types of parameters is such that
no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4()
just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in
the syscall entry table.

Tested with an EABI 2.6.35 kernel and Ulrich Drepper's original
accept4() test program, modified to define __NR_accept4 for ARM.

Using the updated unistd.h also eliminates a warning then building
glibc (2.10.2 and newer) about accept4() being unimplemented.

x86 calls machine_shutdown() from the various machine_*() calls which
take the machine down ready for halting, restarting, etc, and uses
this to bring the system safely to a point where those actions can be
performed.  Such actions are stopping the secondary CPUs.

So, change the ARM implementation of these to reflect what x86 does.

This solves kexec problems on ARM SMP platforms, where the secondary
CPUs were left running across the kexec call.

5388a6b266 ARM: SMP: Always enable clock event broadcast support
The TWD local timers are unable to wake up the CPU when it is placed
into a low power mode, eg. C3.  Therefore, we need to adapt things
such that the TWD code can cope with this.

We do this by always providing a broadcast tick function, and marking
the fact that the TWD local timer will stop in low power modes.  This
means that when the CPU is placed into a low power mode, the core
timer code marks this fact, and allows an IPI to be given to the core.

9ca03a21e3 ARM: Factor out common code from cpu_proc_fin()
All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts
and then flush caches.  Rather than have every processors proc_fin()
implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the
cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having
caches still enabled.)

This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache
types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support
code.

1dbd30e989 ARM: 6225/1: make TCM allocation static and common for all archs
This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at
0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but
XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while
still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the
unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places
in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to
compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it
has to be nailed down in one place.

possible reason: unannotated irqs-on.

Fix this by ensuring that the lockdep interrupt state is manipulated in
the appropriate places.  We essentially treat userspace as an entirely
separate environment which isn't relevant to lockdep (lockdep doesn't
monitor userspace.)  We don't tell lockdep that IRQs will be enabled
in that environment.

Instead, when creating kernel threads (which is a rare event compared
to entering/leaving userspace) we have to update the lockdep state.  Do
this by starting threads with IRQs disabled, and in the kthread helper,
tell lockdep that IRQs are enabled, and enable them.

This provides lockdep with a consistent view of the current IRQ state
in kernel space.

This also revert portions of 0d928b0b61
which didn't fix the problem.

f159f4ed55 ARM: 6207/1: Replace CONFIG_HAS_TLS_REG with HWCAP_TLS and check for it on V6
The TLS register is only available on ARM1136 r1p0 and later.
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>.
