19df0c2fef percpu: align percpu readmostly subsection to cacheline
Currently percpu readmostly subsection may share cachelines with other
percpu subsections which may result in unnecessary cacheline bounce
and performance degradation.

This patch adds @cacheline parameter to PERCPU() and PERCPU_VADDR()
linker macros, makes each arch linker scripts specify its cacheline
size and use it to align percpu subsections.

This is based on Shaohua's x86 only patch.

e2609f6aa2 alpha: fix breakage caused by df9ee29270
Commit df9ee29270 made arch_local_irq_save and arch_local_irq_restore
static inline which with -Werror trips up on __set_hae() and _set_hae()
which are extern inline.  The naive solution is to make __set_hae() and
set_hae() static inline but for reasons described in commit d559d4a24a
this breaks the generic kernel build.  Instead, since this is architecture
specific code, this patch hard wires in the architecture specific method
f disabling and enabling interrupts.

3e5c12409c set_rtc_mmss: show warning message only once
Occasionally the system gets into a state where the CMOS clock has gotten
slightly ahead of current time and the periodic update of RTC fails.  The
message is a nuisance and repeats spamming the log.

  See: http://www.ntp.org/ntpfaq/NTP-s-trbl-spec.htm#Q-LINUX-SET-RTC-MMSS

Rather than just removing the message, make it show only once and reduce
severity since it indicates a normal and non urgent condition.

004417a6d4 perf, arch: Cleanup perf-pmu init vs lockup-detector
The perf hardware pmu got initialized at various points in the boot,
some before early_initcall() some after (notably arch_initcall).

The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall()
and expects the hardware pmu to be present.

Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to
initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit
initcall right after that.

98c532ecbe alpha: use single HAE window on T2 core logic (gamma, sable)
T2 are the only alpha SMP systems that do HAE switching at runtime, which
is fundamentally racy on SMP.  This patch limits MMIO space on T2 to HAE0
only, like we did on MCPCIA (rawhide) long ago.  This leaves us with only
112 Mb of PCI MMIO (128 Mb HAE aperture minus 16 Mb reserved for EISA),
but since linux PCI allocations are reasonably tight, it should be enough
for sane hardware configurations.

Also, fix a typo in MCPCIA_FROB_MMIO macro which shouldn't call set_hae()
if MCPCIA_ONE_HAE_WINDOW is defined.  It's more for correctness, as
set_hae() is a no-op anyway in that case.

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.

df9ee29270 Fix IRQ flag handling naming
Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:

	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
	...

and under the other configuration, it maps:

	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
	...

This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.

Change this to have the arch provide:

	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
	arch_local_irq_disable()
	arch_local_irq_enable()
	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	arch_irqs_disabled()
	arch_safe_halt()

Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:

	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
	raw_local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_enable()
	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	raw_irqs_disabled()
	raw_safe_halt()

with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:

	local_save_flags(flags)
	local_irq_save(flags)
	local_irq_restore(flags)
	local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_enable()
	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	irqs_disabled()
	safe_halt()

with tracing included if enabled.

The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

87400e5406 Fix up more fallout form alpha signal cleanups
Commit c52c2ddc1d ("alpha: switch osf_sigprocmask() to use of
sigprocmask()") had several problems.  The more obvious compile issues
got fixed in commit 0f44fbd297 ("alpha: fix compile problem in
arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c"), but it also caused a regression.

Since _BLOCKABLE is already the set of signals that can be blocked, the
code should do "newmask & _BLOCKABLE" rather than inverting _BLOCKABLE
before masking.

77edffb652 alpha: fix hae_cache race in RESTORE_ALL
We want interrupts disabled on all paths leading to RESTORE_ALL;
otherwise, we are risking an IRQ coming between the updates of
alpha_mv->hae_cache and *alpha_mv->hae_register and set_hae()
within the IRQ getting badly confused.

RESTORE_ALL used to play with disabling IRQ itself, but that got
removed back in 2002, without making sure we had them disabled
on all paths.  It's cheaper to make sure we have them disabled than
to revert to original variant...

Remove the detritus left from that commit back in 2002; we used to
need a reload of $0 and $1 since swpipl would change those, but
doing that had become pointless when we stopped doing swpipl in
there...

494486a1d2 alpha: deal with multiple simultaneously pending signals
Unlike the other targets, alpha sets _one_ sigframe and
buggers off until the next syscall/interrupt, even if
more signals are pending.  It leads to quite a few unpleasant
inconsistencies, starting with SIGSEGV potentially arriving
not where it should and including e.g. mess with sigsuspend();
consider two pending signals blocked until sigsuspend()
unblocks them.  We pick the first one; then, if we are hit
by interrupt while in the handler, we process the second one
as well.  If we are not, and if no syscalls had been made,
we get out of the first handler and leave the second signal
pending; normally sigreturn() would've picked it anyway, but
here it starts with restoring the original mask and voila -
the second signal is blocked again.  On everything else we
get both delivered consistently.

It's actually easy to fix; the only thing to watch out for
is prevention of double syscall restart.  Fortunately, the
idea I've nicked from arm fix by rmk works just fine...

Testcase demonstrating the behaviour in question; on alpha
we get one or both flags set (usually one), on everything
else both are always set.
	#include <signal.h>
	#include <stdio.h>
	int had1, had2;
	void f1(int sig) { had1 = 1; }
	void f2(int sig) { had2 = 1; }
	main()
	{
		sigset_t set1, set2;
		sigemptyset(&set1);
		sigemptyset(&set2);
		sigaddset(&set2, 1);
		sigaddset(&set2, 2);
		signal(1, f1);
		signal(2, f2);
		sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &set2, NULL);
		raise(1);
		raise(2);
		sigsuspend(&set1);
		printf("had1:%d had2:%d\n", had1, had2);
	}

5329363861 alpha: fix a 14 years old bug in sigreturn tracing
The way sigreturn() is implemented on alpha breaks PTRACE_SYSCALL,
all way back to 1.3.95 when alpha has grown PTRACE_SYSCALL support.

What happens is direct return to ret_from_syscall, in order to bypass
mangling of a3 (error indicator) and prevent other mutilations of
registers (e.g. by syscall restart).  That's fine, but... the entire
TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE codepath is kept separate on alpha and post-syscall
stopping/notifying the tracer is after the syscall.  And the normal
path we are forcibly switching to doesn't have it.

So we end up with *one* stop in traced sigreturn() vs. two in other
syscalls.  And yes, strace is visibly broken by that; try to strace
the following
	#include <signal.h>
	#include <stdio.h>
	void f(int sig) {}
	main()
	{
		signal(SIGHUP, f);
		raise(SIGHUP);
		write(1, "eeeek\n", 6);
	}
and watch the show.  The
	close(1)                                = 405
in the end of strace output is coming from return value of write() (6 ==
__NR_close on alpha) and syscall number of exit_group() (__NR_exit_group ==
405 there).

The fix is fairly simple - the only thing we end up missing is the call
of syscall_trace() and we can tell whether we'd been called from the
SYSCALL_TRACE path by checking ra value.  Since we are setting the
switch_stack up (that's what sys_sigreturn() does), we have the right
environment for calling syscall_trace() - just before we call
undo_switch_stack() and return.  Since undo_switch_stack() will overwrite
s0 anyway, we can use it to store the result of "has it been called from
SYSCALL_TRACE path?" check.  The same thing applies in rt_sigreturn().

392fb6e354 alpha: unb0rk sigsuspend() and rt_sigsuspend()
Old code used to set regs->r0 and regs->r19 to force the right
return value.  Leaving that after switch to ERESTARTNOHAND
was a Bad Idea(tm), since now that screws the restart - if we
hit the case when get_signal_to_deliver() returns 0, we will
step back to syscall insn, with v0 set to EINTR and a3 to 1.
The latter won't matter, since EINTR is 4, aka __NR_write.

Testcase:

	#include <signal.h>
	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/syscall.h>

	main()
	{
		sigset_t mask;
		sigemptyset(&mask);
		sigaddset(&mask, SIGCONT);
		sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL);
		kill(0, SIGCONT);
		syscall(__NR_sigsuspend, 1, "b0rken\n", 7);
	}

results on alpha in immediate message to stdout...

Fix is obvious; moreover, since we don't need regs anymore, we can
switch to normal prototypes for these guys and lose the wrappers.
Even better, rt_sigsuspend() is identical to generic version in
kernel/signal.c now.

bdc8b8914b alpha: Shift perf event pending work earlier in timer interrupt
Pending work from the performance event subsystem is executed in
the timer interrupt.  This patch shifts the call to
perf_event_do_pending() before the call to update_process_times()
as the latter may call back into the perf event subsystem and it
is prudent to have the pending work executed first.

Alpha SMP flush_icache_user_range() is implemented as an inline

linux/sched.h wasn't included previously.  Fix it by including the
