Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.
As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.
The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.

Currently instruction_pointer() returns pt_regs->ret and so return value
is of type "long", which implicitly stands for "signed long".
While that's perfectly fine when dealing with 32-bit values if return
value of instruction_pointer() gets assigned to 64-bit variable sign
extension may happen.
And at least in one real use-case it happens already.
In perf_prepare_sample() return value of perf_instruction_pointer()
(which is an alias to instruction_pointer() in case of ARC) is assigned
to (struct perf_sample_data)->ip (which type is "u64").
And what we see if instuction pointer points to user-space application
that in case of ARC lays below 0x8000_0000 "ip" gets set properly with
leading 32 zeros. But if instruction pointer points to kernel address
space that starts from 0x8000_0000 then "ip" is set with 32 leadig
"f"-s. I.e. id instruction_pointer() returns 0x8100_0000, "ip" will be
assigned with 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000. Which is obviously wrong.
In particular that issuse broke output of perf, because perf was unable
to associate addresses like 0xffff_ffff__8100_0000 with anything from
/proc/kallsyms.
That's what we used to see:
----------->8----------
6.27% ls [unknown] [k] 0xffffffff8046c5cc
2.96% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy
2.25% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memset
1.66% ls [unknown] [k] 0xffffffff80666536
1.54% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] 0x000224d6
1.18% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] 0x00022472
----------->8----------
With that change perf output looks much better now:
----------->8----------
8.21% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memset
3.52% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] memcpy
2.11% ls libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so [.] malloc

ARCompact/ARCv2 ISA provide that any instructions which deals with
bitpos/count operand ASL, LSL, BSET, BCLR, BMSK .... will only consider
lower 5 bits. i.e. auto-clamp the pos to 0-31.
ARC Linux bitops exploited this fact by NOT explicitly masking out upper
bits for @nr operand in general, saving a bunch of AND/BMSK instructions
in generated code around bitops.
While this micro-optimization has worked well over years it is NOT safe
as shifting a number with a value, greater than native size is
"undefined" per "C" spec.
So as it turns outm EZChip ran into this eventually, in their massive
muti-core SMP build with 64 cpus. There was a test_bit() inside a loop
from 63 to 0 and gcc was weirdly optimizing away the first iteration
(so it was really adhering to standard by implementing undefined behaviour
vs. removing all the iterations which were phony i.e. (1 << [63..32])
| for i = 63 to 0
| X = ( 1 << i )
| if X == 0
| continue
So fix the code to do the explicit masking at the expense of generating
additional instructions. Fortunately, this can be mitigated to a large
extent as gcc has SHIFT_COUNT_TRUNCATED which allows combiner to fold
masking into shift operation itself. It is currently not enabled in ARC
gcc backend, but could be done after a bit of testing.

ARC kernels have historically been built with -O3, despite top level
Makefile defaulting to -O2. This was facilitated by implicitly ordering
of arch makefile include AFTER top level assigned -O2.
An upstream fix to top level a1c48bb160f ("Makefile: Fix unrecognized
cross-compiler command line options") changed the ordering, making ARC
-O3 defunct.
Fix that by NOT relying on any ordering whatsoever and use the proper
arch override facility now present in kbuild (ARCH_*FLAGS)
Depends-on: ("kbuild: Allow arch Makefiles to override {cpp,ld,c}flags")

SLC maintenance ops need to be serialized by software as there is no
inherent buffering / quequing of aux commands. It can silently ignore a
new aux operation if previous one is still ongoing (SLC_CTRL_BUSY)
So gaurd the SLC op using a spin lock
The spin lock doesn't seem to be contended even in heavy workloads such
as iperf. On FPGA @ 75 MHz.

This replaces the plain loop over the sglist array with for_each_sg()
macro which consists of sg_next() function calls. Since arc doesn't
select ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN, it is not necessary to use for_each_sg() in
order to loop over each sg element. But this can help find problems with
drivers that do not properly initialize their sg tables when
CONFIG_DEBUG_SG is enabled.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.
However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.
This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.
This patch (of 3):
This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)
The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.
The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.
In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

A quad core SMP build could get into hardware livelock with concurrent
LLOCK/SCOND. Workaround that by adding a PREFETCHW which is serialized by
SCU (System Coherency Unit). It brings the cache line in Exclusive state
and makes others invalidate their lines. This gives enough time for
winner to complete the LLOCK/SCOND, before others can get the line back.
The prefetchw in the ll/sc loop is not nice but this is the only
software workaround for current version of RTL.

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-

This allows platforms to provide their own cpu wakeup routines
as well as IPI send / clear backends, while allowing a SMP kernel w/o
any such backend to build/boot

Caveats about cache flush on ARCv2 based cores
- dcache is PIPT so paddr is sufficient for cache maintenance ops (no
need to setup PTAG reg
- icache is still VIPT but only aliasing configs need PTAG setup
So basically this is departure from MMU-v3 which always need vaddr in
line ops registers (DC_IVDL, DC_FLDL, IC_IVIL) but paddr in DC_PTAG,
IC_PTAG respectively.

The issue was, on HS when interrupt is taken, IRQ_ACT is set and that is
NOT cleared unless we do RTIE (or manually clear it). Linux interrupt
handling has top and bottom halves. Latter lead to softirqs (which can
reschedule) AND expect interrupts to be REALLY re-enabled which was NOT
happening for us since we only SETI, dont clear IRQ_ACT
So we can have a state when both cores have taken interrupt (IRQ_ACT set),
get rescheduled, both send IPI and wait in CSD lock which will never be
cleared as cores can't take the pending IPI IRQ due to existing IRQ_ACT
set.
So local_irq_enable() now drops the IRQ_ACT.act bit to re-enable IRQs.

Reported by Anton as LTP:munmap01 failing with Illegal Instruction
Exception.
--------------------->8--------------------------------------
mmap2(NULL, 24576, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0) = 0x200d2000

The issue was
1. munmap01 accessed unmapped memory (on purpose) with signal handler
installed for SIGSEGV
2. The faulting instruction happened to be in Delay Slot
00011864 <main>:
11908: bl.d 13284 <tst_resm>
1190c: stb r16,[r2]
3. kernel sets up the reg file for signal handler and correctly clears
the DE bit in pt_regs->status32 placeholder
4. However RESTORE_CALLEE_SAVED_USER macro is not adjusted for ARCv2,
and it over-writes the above with orig/stale value of status32
5. After RTIE, userspace signal handler executes a non branch
instruction with DE bit set, triggering Illegal Instruction Exception.
