54b6680090 parisc: Add native high-resolution sched_clock() implementation
Add a native implementation for the sched_clock() function which utilizes the
processor-internal cycle counter (Control Register 16) as high-resolution time
source.

With this patch we now get much more fine-grained resolutions in various
in-kernel time measurements (e.g. when viewing the function tracing logs), and
probably a more accurate scheduling on SMP systems.

There are a few specific implementation details in this patch:

1. On a 32bit kernel we emulate the higher 32bits of the required 64-bit
resolution of sched_clock() by increasing a per-cpu counter at every
wrap-around of the 32bit cycle counter.

2. In a SMP system, the cycle counters of the various CPUs are not syncronized
(similiar to the TSC in a x86_64 system). To cope with this we define
HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK and let the upper layers do the adjustment work.

3. Since we need HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK, we need to provide a cmpxchg64()
function even on a 32-bit kernel.

4. A 64-bit SMP kernel which is started on a UP system will mark the
sched_clock() implementation as "stable", which means that we don't expect any
jumps in the returned counter. This is true because we then run only on one
CPU.

2ef4dfd9d9 parisc: Unbreak handling exceptions from kernel modules
Handling exceptions from modules never worked on parisc.
It was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules
don't happen during normal use.

When a module triggers an exception in get_user() we need to load the
main kernel dp value before accessing the exception_data structure, and
afterwards restore the original dp value of the module on exit.

f6d12eefcd parisc: make udelay() SMP-safe
Each CPU has it's own Control Register 16 (CR16) which is used as time source
for the udelay() function. But since the CR16 registers across different CPUs
are not synced, we need to recalculate the loop count if we get switched away
to ensure that we really delay as much time as requested.

61dbbaeb86 parisc: provide macro to create exception table entries
Provide a macro ASM_EXCEPTIONTABLE_ENTRY() to create exception table
entries and convert all open-coded places to use that macro.

This patch is a first step toward creating a exception table which only
holds 32bit pointers even on a 64bit kernel. That way in my own kernel
I was able to reduce the in-kernel exception table from 44kB to 22kB.

5b879d78bc parisc: Fix gcc miscompilation in pa_memcpy()
When running the LTP testsuite one may hit this kernel BUG() with the

Reason for this crash is a gcc miscompilation in the fault handlers of
pa_memcpy() which return the fault address instead of the copied bytes.
Since this seems to be a generic problem with gcc-4.7.x (and below), it's
better to simplify the fault handlers in pa_memcpy to avoid this problem.

Here is a simple reproducer for the problem:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	int fd, nbytes;
	struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
		{ "TEST STRING                     ",32},
		{ (char*)0x40005000,32} }; // random memory.
	fd = open(DATA_FILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
	nbytes = writev(fd, wr_iovec, 2);
	printf("return value = %d, errno %d (%s)\n",
		nbytes, errno, strerror(errno));
	return 0;
}

In addition, John David Anglin wrote:
There is no gcc PR as pa_memcpy is not legitimate C code. There is an
implicit assumption that certain variables will contain correct values
when an exception occurs and the code randomly jumps to one of the
exception blocks.  There is no guarantee of this.  If a PR was filed, it
would likely be marked as invalid.

Now that the return from alloc_percpu is compatible with the address

created to stop people accidentally using these vars directly.

fb1c8f93d8 [PATCH] spinlock consolidation
This patch (written by me and also containing many suggestions of Arjan van
de Ven) does a major cleanup of the spinlock code.  It does the following
things:

 - consolidates and enhances the spinlock/rwlock debugging code

 - simplifies the asm/spinlock.h files

 - encapsulates the raw spinlock type and moves generic spinlock
   features (such as ->break_lock) into the generic code.

 - cleans up the spinlock code hierarchy to get rid of the spaghetti.

Most notably there's now only a single variant of the debugging code,
located in lib/spinlock_debug.c.  (previously we had one SMP debugging
variant per architecture, plus a separate generic one for UP builds)

Also, i've enhanced the rwlock debugging facility, it will now track
write-owners.  There is new spinlock-owner/CPU-tracking on SMP builds too.
All locks have lockup detection now, which will work for both soft and hard
spin/rwlock lockups.

The arch-level include files now only contain the minimally necessary
subset of the spinlock code - all the rest that can be generalized now
lives in the generic headers:

 include/asm-i386/spinlock_types.h       |   16
 include/asm-x86_64/spinlock_types.h     |   16

I have also split up the various spinlock variants into separate files,
making it easier to see which does what. The new layout is:

   SMP                         |  UP
   ----------------------------|-----------------------------------
   asm/spinlock_types_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_types_up.h
   linux/spinlock_types.h      |  linux/spinlock_types.h
   asm/spinlock_smp.h          |  linux/spinlock_up.h
   linux/spinlock_api_smp.h    |  linux/spinlock_api_up.h
   linux/spinlock.h            |  linux/spinlock.h

/*
 * here's the role of the various spinlock/rwlock related include files:
 *
 * on SMP builds:
 *
 *  asm/spinlock_types.h: contains the raw_spinlock_t/raw_rwlock_t and the
 *                        initializers
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_types.h:
 *                        defines the generic type and initializers
 *
 *  asm/spinlock.h:       contains the __raw_spin_*()/etc. lowlevel
 *                        implementations, mostly inline assembly code
 *
 *   (also included on UP-debug builds:)
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:
 *                        contains the prototypes for the _spin_*() APIs.
 *
 *  linux/spinlock.h:     builds the final spin_*() APIs.
 *
 * on UP builds:
 *
 *  linux/spinlock_type_up.h:
 *                        contains the generic, simplified UP spinlock type.

All SMP and UP architectures are converted by this patch.

arm, i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390/s390x, x64 was build-tested via
crosscompilers.  m32r, mips, sh, sparc, have not been tested yet, but should
be mostly fine.

From: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org>

  Booted and lightly tested on a500-44 (64-bit, SMP kernel, dual CPU).
  Builds 32-bit SMP kernel (not booted or tested).  I did not try to build
  non-SMP kernels.  That should be trivial to fix up later if necessary.

  I converted bit ops atomic_hash lock to raw_spinlock_t.  Doing so avoids
  some ugly nesting of linux/*.h and asm/*.h files.  Those particular locks
  are well tested and contained entirely inside arch specific code.  I do NOT
  expect any new issues to arise with them.

 If someone does ever need to use debug/metrics with them, then they will
  need to unravel this hairball between spinlocks, atomic ops, and bit ops
  that exist only because parisc has exactly one atomic instruction: LDCW
  (load and clear word).

dae409a277 [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite
In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the
underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main
consumer, is LE).

However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are
actually Big Endian.  There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and
chip types are attached to LE systems.  Thus, there's a need for a BE
equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations.

The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be.  When it's in,
I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
