Alexander Bigga 32136568a9 [MIPS] Fix for pci config_access on alchemy au1x000
I've encountered a serious problem with PCI config space access on Au1x000
platforms with recent 2.6.x-kernel. With 2.4.31 the same hardware works fine.
So I was looking for the differences:

Symptoms:
- no PCI-device is seen on bootup though two or three cards are present
- lspci output is empty
- OR: lspci shows 20 times the same device
(- OR: in some slot-configurations it worked anyhow)

System(s):
1. platform with Au1500 and three PCI-devices (actually a mycable XXS1500
    with backplane for three PCI-devices)
2. platform with Au1550 and two PCI-devices (custom board)

Debugging:
I digged down to the config_access() of the au1xxx-processors in
arch/mips/pci/ops-au1000.c and switched on DEBUG.

The code of config_access() seems to be almost the same as of the
2.4.x-kernel. But the "pci_cfg_vm->addr" returned by get_vm_area(0x2000, 0)
once on booting is different. That's of course not forbidden. But the
alignment seems to be wrong. In my case, I received:

2.4.31: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0000000
2.6.18-rc5: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0101000

To make it short: With 2.6.x it fails on the first config-access with:
"PCI ERR detected: status 83a00356".

Fixup:
My fix is now, to use the VM_IOREMAP-flag in the get_vm_area call. This flag
seems to be introduced in mm/vmalloc.c a long time ago (in 2.6.7-bk13, I
found in gitweb).
Now, the returned address is pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0104000 and everything works
fine.

Atsushi Nemoto 898d229107 [MIPS] Make prepare_frametrace() not clobber v0
Since lmo commit 323a380bf9e1a1679a774a2b053e3c1f2aa3f179 ("Simplify
dump_stack()") made prepare_frametrace() always inlined, using $2 (v0)
in __asm__ is not safe anymore.  We can use $1 (at) instead.  Also we
should use "dla" instead of "la" for 64-bit kernel.

Atsushi Nemoto f6502791d7 [MIPS] Do not use drop_mmu_context to flusing other task's VIPT I-cache.
c-r4k.c and c-sb1.c use drop_mmu_context() to flush virtually tagged
I-caches, but this does not work for flushing other task's icache.  This
is for example triggered by copy_to_user_page() called from ptrace(2).
Use indexed flush for such cases.

Ralf Baechle 13fdd31abe [MIPS] Avoid double signal restarting.
In entry.S resume_userspace ... jal do_notify_resume form a loop through
which the kernel will iterate as long as work is pending.  If we
iterate through this loop more than once with no signal pending for at
least one but the last iteration we will take do the syscall restarting
multiple times resulting in a syscall return prior to the the syscall
instruction in userspace.  This may happen when debugging a multithreaded
program.

Jeff Dike e8df8c3304 [PATCH] Make UML use ptrace-abi.h
Include the host architecture's ptrace-abi.h instead of ptrace.h.

There was some cpp mangling of names around the ptrace.h include to avoid
symbol clashes between UML and the host architecture.  Most of these can go
away.  The exception is struct pt_regs, which is convenient to have in
userspace, but must be renamed in order that UML can define its own.

ptrace-x86_64.h needed to have some now-obsolete cpp cruft and a declaration
removed.

Jeff Dike 70e0eb8ef1 [PATCH] Split i386 and x86_64 ptrace.h
The use of SEGMENT_RPL_MASK in the i386 ptrace.h introduced by
x86-allow-a-kernel-to-not-be-in-ring-0.patch broke the UML build, as UML
includes the underlying architecture's ptrace.h, but has no easy access to the
x86 segment definitions.

Rather than kludging around this, as in the past, this patch splits the
userspace-usable parts, which are the bits that UML needs, of ptrace.h into
ptrace-abi.h, which is included back into ptrace.h.  Thus, there is no net
effect on i386.

As a side-effect, this creates a ptrace header which is close to being usable
in /usr/include.

x86_64 is also treated in this way for consistency.  There was some trailing
whitespace there, which is cleaned up.

Jeff Dike 75e29b18d9 [PATCH] uml: stack usage reduction
The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack.  In order to overcome
an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single
register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full
pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and
returned one field.  do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two
local pt_regs, blowing out the stack.

This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just
return a single register from a jmp_buf.

The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of
jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c.  <setjmp.h>
shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc
setjmp/longjmp.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso bf61f50d63 [PATCH] uml: clean our set_ether_mac
Clean set_ether_mac usage.  Maybe could also be removed, but surely it can't
be a global function taking a void* argument.

Jeff Dike 537ae946e8 [PATCH] uml: timer cleanups
set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails.  Some of
its callers now check the return.

enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the
only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead.

user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is
gone.

Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass
ITIMER_* to it.  Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL
or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.

Jeff Dike 4b84c69b5f [PATCH] uml: Move signal handlers to arch code
Have most signals go through an arch-provided handler which recovers the
sigcontext and then calls a generic handler.  This replaces the
ARCH_GET_SIGCONTEXT macro, which was somewhat fragile.  On x86_64, recovering
%rdx (which holds the sigcontext pointer) must be the first thing that
happens.  sig_handler duly invokes that first, but there is no guarantee that
I can see that instructions won't be reordered such that %rdx is used before
that.  Having the arch provide the handler seems much more robust.

Some signals in some parts of UML require their own handlers - these places
don't call set_handler any more.  They call sigaction or signal themselves.

Jeff Dike 19bdf0409f [PATCH] uml: SIGIO cleanups
- Various cleanups in the sigio code.

- Removed explicit zero-initializations of a few structures.

- Improved some error messages.

- An API change - there was an asymmetry between reactivate_fd calling
  maybe_sigio_broken, which goes through all the machinery of figuring out if
  a file descriptor supports SIGIO and applying the workaround to it if not,
  and deactivate_fd, which just turns off the descriptor.

  This is changed so that only activate_fd calls maybe_sigio_broken, when
  the descriptor is first seen.  reactivate_fd now calls add_sigio_fd, which
  is symmetric with ignore_sigio_fd.

  This removes a recursion which makes a critical section look more critical
  than it really was, obsoleting a big comment to that effect.  This requires
  keeping track of all descriptors which are getting the SIGIO treatment, not
  just the ones being polled at any given moment, so that reactivate_fd,
  through add_sigio_fd, doesn't try to tell the SIGIO thread about descriptors
  it doesn't care about.

Jeff Dike 6edf428ed1 [PATCH] uml: Improve SIGBUS diagnostics
UML can get a SIGBUS anywhere if the tmpfs mount being used for its memory
runs out of space.  This patch adds a printk before the panic to provide a
clue as to what likely went wrong.

Jeff Dike 6b7aaad9ba [PATCH] uml: Fix handling of failed execs of helpers
There were some bugs in handling failures to exec helper programs.  errno was
passed back from the child with the wrong sign.  It was also ignored.  In the
case where it mattered, the errno from the (successful) read in the parent was
used instead.
