c5a285bb1b xtensa: fix str[n]cmp return value
str[n]cmp functions return negative value if the first string is less
than the second, positive value if the first string is greater than the
second and zero if they are equal. This is important when these
functions are used for sorting/binary search.

With incorrect strcmp return value bsearch was always failing in the
find_symbol_in_section making it impossible to load any module.

de73b6b1bd xtensa: avoid mmap cache aliasing
Provide arch_get_unmapped_area function aligning shared memory mapping
addresses to the biggest of the page size or the cache way size. That

2a02bc166d xtensa: use new common dtc rule
The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
from the .dts files. This patch changes xtensa to use the generic dtb
rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.

This requires moving parts of arch/xtensa/boot/Makefile into newly
created arch/xtensa/boot/dts/Makefile, and updating arch/xtensa/Makefile
to call the new Makefile.

xtensa/allmodconfig:

drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c:204: error: implicit declaration of function ‘dma_mmap_coherent’

For architectures using dma_map_ops, dma_mmap_coherent() and
dma_get_sgtable() are provided in <asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h>.

Xtensa does not use dma_map_ops, hence it should implement them itself.
For now, use dummy implementations that just return -EINVAL, until the API
has been finalized.

da844a8177 xtensa: add device trees support
Device trees allow specification of hardware topology and device
parameters at runtime instead of hard-coding them in platform setup
code. This allows running single binary kernel on a range of compatible
boards.

New boot parameters tag BP_TAG_FDT is allocated and a pointer to flat
device tree is passed in it.

Note that current interrupt mapping scheme uses single cell for
interrupt identification. That means that IRQ numbers used in DTS must
be CPU internal IRQ numbers, not external. It is possible to extend
interrupt identification to two cells, and use second cell to tell
external IRQ numbers form internal. That would allow to use single DTS
on multiple boards with different mapping of external IRQ numbers.

00273125c3 xtensa: add s32c1i sanity check
Add a brief sanity test of S32C1I functionality.  This instruction
is needed by the kernel and userland as part of the base ABI
(including GCC atomic builtins, certain threading packages, future
atomic support in the C++ standard, etc).  However, correct operation
of this instruction requires some cooperation by hardware external to
the processor (such as bus bridge, bus fabric, or memory controller).
Minimally exercising this mechanism and reporting explicit status
early in the boot process is helpful to chip vendors using the Linux
kernel as a benchmark of correctness of hardware.

As it turns out, S32C1I is not exercised by the kernel and by uClibc
based userland as of early June 2008.  This is expected to change
soon as both incorporate more recent open source developments.

4) tuntap/virtio-net multiqueue support by Jason Wang.

5) Support for checksum offload of encapsulated packets (basically,
   tunneled traffic can still be checksummed by HW).  From Joseph
   Gasparakis.

6) Allow BPF filter access to VLAN tags, from Eric Dumazet and
   Daniel Borkmann.

7) Bridge port parameters over netlink and BPDU blocking support
   from Stephen Hemminger.

8) Improve data access patterns during inet socket demux by rearranging
   socket layout, from Eric Dumazet.

9) TIPC protocol updates and cleanups from Ying Xue, Paul Gortmaker, and
   Jon Maloy.

10) Update TCP socket hash sizing to be more in line with current day
    realities.  The existing heurstics were choosen a decade ago.
    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Fix races, queue bloat, and excessive wakeups in ATM and
    associated drivers, from Krzysztof Mazur and David Woodhouse.

12) Support DOVE (Distributed Overlay Virtual Ethernet) extensions
    in VXLAN driver, from David Stevens.

13) Add "oops_only" mode to netconsole, from Amerigo Wang.

14) Support set and query of VEB/VEPA bridge mode via PF_BRIDGE, also
    allow DCB netlink to work on namespaces other than the initial
    namespace.  From John Fastabend.

15) Support PTP in the Tigon3 driver, from Matt Carlson.

16) tun/vhost zero copy fixes and improvements, plus turn it on
    by default, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

17) Support per-association statistics in SCTP, from Michele
    Baldessari.

And many, many, driver updates, cleanups, and improvements.  Too
numerous to mention individually.

Linus Torvalds
9977d9b379 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."
