I am running SMP Linux 2.6.37-rc1 on BMIPS5000 (single core dual thread)
and observe some abnormalities when doing system suspend/resume which I
narrowed down to cpu hotplugging. The suspend brings the second thread
processor down and then restarts it, after which I see memory corruption
in userspace. I started digging and found out that problem occurs because
while doing execve() the child process is getting the same ASID as the
parent, which obviously corrupts parent's address space.
Further digging showed that activate_mm() calls get_new_mmu_context() to
get a new ASID, but at this time ASID field in entryHi is 1, and
asid_cache(cpu) is 0x100 (it was just reset to ASID_FIRST_VERSION when
the secondary TP was booting).
So, get_new_mmu_context() increments the asid_cache(cpu) value to
0x101, and thus puts 0x01 into entryHi. The result - ASID field does
not get changed as it was supposed to.
My solution is very simple - do not reset asid_cache(cpu) on TP warm
restart.

Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
The Kernel hangs occasionally during boot after "Calibrating delay loop..".
This is caused by the c0_compare_int_usable() routine in cevt-r4k.c
returning false which causes the system to disable the timer and hang later.
The false return happens because the routine is using a series of four calls
to irq_disable_hazard() as a delay while it waits for the timer changes to
propagate to the cp0 cause register. On newer MIPS cores, like the 74K, the
series of irq_disable_hazard() calls turn into ehb instructions and can take
as little as a few clock ticks for all 4 instructions. This is not enough of
a delay, so the routine thinks the timer is not working. This fix uses up
to a max number of cycle counter ticks for the delay and uses
back_to_back_c0_hazard() instead of irq_disable_hazard() to handle the
hazard condition between cp0 writes and cp0 reads.

The hard coded constants are moved to struct mips_pmu. All counter
register access move to the read_counter and write_counter function

Many of the function pointers in struct mips_pmu were not needed as
there was only a single implementation, these were removed.
I couldn't figure out what made struct cpu_hw_events.msbs[] at all

Add a NODE level to the generic cache events which is used to measure
local vs remote memory accesses. Like all other cache events, an
ACCESS is HIT+MISS, if there is no way to distinguish between reads
and writes do reads only etc..
The below needs filling out for !x86 (which I filled out with
unsupported events).
I'm fairly sure ARM can leave it like that since it doesn't strike me as
an architecture that even has NUMA support. SH might have something since
it does appear to have some NUMA bits.
Sparc64, PowerPC and MIPS certainly want a good look there since they
clearly are NUMA capable.

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.

Move them to drivers/clocksource/i8253.c and remove the
implementations in arch/
[ tglx: Avoid the extra file in lib - folded arch patches in. The
export will become conditional in a later step ]

32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.
setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.
While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.
v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.

A new utility function (core_kernel_data()) is used to determine if a
passed in address is part of core kernel data or not. It may or may not
return true for RO data, but this utility must work for RW data.
Thus both _sdata and _edata must be defined and continuous,
without .init sections that may later be freed and replaced by
volatile memory (memory that can be freed).
This utility function is used to determine if data is safe from
ever being freed. Thus it should return true for all RW global
data that is not in a module or has been allocated, or false
otherwise.
Also change core_kernel_data() back to the more precise _sdata condition
and document the function.
