Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64
record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some
general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables
looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where. The
worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.
Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.
As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
get a dump. Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger
The output is made compact so that this facility is more
useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
facility will likely find itself the most useful :)

So, forever, we've had this ptrace_signal_deliver implementation
which tries to handle all of the nasties that can occur when the
debugger looks at a process about to take a signal. It's meant
to address all of these issues inside of the kernel so that the
debugger need not be mindful of such things.
Problem is, this doesn't work.
The idea was that we should do the syscall restart business first, so
that the debugger captures that state. Otherwise, if the debugger for
example saves the child's state, makes the child execute something
else, then restores the saved state, we won't handle the syscall
restart properly because we lose the "we're in a syscall" state.
The code here worked for most cases, but if the debugger actually
passes the signal through to the child unaltered, it's possible that
we would do a syscall restart when we shouldn't have.
In particular this breaks the case of debugging a process under a gdb
which is being debugged by yet another gdb. gdb uses sigsuspend
to wait for SIGCHLD of the inferior, but if gdb itself is being
debugged by a top-level gdb we get a ptrace_stop(). The top-level gdb
does a PTRACE_CONT with SIGCHLD to let the inferior gdb see the
signal. But ptrace_signal_deliver() assumed the debugger would cancel
out the signal and therefore did a syscall restart, because the return
error was ERESTARTNOHAND.
Fix this by simply making ptrace_signal_deliver() a nop, and providing
a way for the debugger to control system call restarting properly:
1) Report a "in syscall" software bit in regs->{tstate,psr}.
It is set early on in trap entry to a system call and is fully
visible to the debugger via ptrace() and regsets.
2) Test this bit right before doing a syscall restart. We have
to do a final recheck right after get_signal_to_deliver() in
case the debugger cleared the bit during ptrace_stop().
3) Clear the bit in trap return so we don't accidently try to set
that bit in the real register.
As a result we also get a ptrace_{is,clear}_syscall() for sparc32 just
like sparc64 has.
M68K has this same exact bug, and is now the only other user of the
ptrace_signal_deliver hook. It needs to be fixed in the same exact
way as sparc.

Forever we had a PTRACE_SUNOS_DETACH which was unconditionally
recognized, regardless of the personality of the process.
Unfortunately, this value is what ended up in the GLIBC sys/ptrace.h
header file on sparc as PTRACE_DETACH and PT_DETACH.
So continue to recognize this old value. Luckily, it doesn't conflict
with anything we actually care about.

Huge ptes have a special type on s390 and cannot be handled with the standard
pte functions in certain cases, e.g. because of a different location of the
invalid bit. This patch adds some new architecture- specific functions to
hugetlb common code, as a prerequisite for the s390 large page support.
This won't affect other architectures in functionality, but I need to add some
new dummy inline functions to the headers.

A cow break on a hugetlbfs page with page_count > 1 will set a new pte with
set_huge_pte_at(), w/o any tlb flush operation. The old pte will remain in
the tlb and subsequent write access to the page will result in a page fault
loop, for as long as it may take until the tlb is flushed from somewhere else.
This patch introduces an architecture-specific huge_ptep_clear_flush()
function, which is called before the the set_huge_pte_at() in hugetlb_cow().
ATTENTION: This is just a nop on all architectures for now, the s390
implementation will come with our large page patch later. Other architectures
should define their own huge_ptep_clear_flush() if needed.

This patch moves all architecture functions for hugetlb to architecture header
files (include/asm-foo/hugetlb.h) and converts all macros to inline functions.
It also removes (!) ARCH_HAS_HUGEPAGE_ONLY_RANGE,
ARCH_HAS_HUGETLB_FREE_PGD_RANGE, ARCH_HAS_PREPARE_HUGEPAGE_RANGE,
ARCH_HAS_SETCLEAR_HUGE_PTE and ARCH_HAS_HUGETLB_PREFAULT_HOOK.
Getting rid of the ARCH_HAS_xxx #ifdef and macro fugliness should increase
readability and maintainability, at the price of some code duplication. An
asm-generic common part would have reduced the loc, but we would end up with
new ARCH_HAS_xxx defines eventually.

s390 for one, cannot implement VM_MIXEDMAP with pfn_valid, due to their memory
model (which is more dynamic than most). Instead, they had proposed to
implement it with an additional path through vm_normal_page(), using a bit in
the pte to determine whether or not the page should be refcounted:
vm_normal_page()
{
...
if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP))) {
if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) {
#ifdef s390
if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
return NULL;
#else
if (!pfn_valid(pfn))
return NULL;
#endif
goto out;
}
...
}
This is fine, however if we are allowed to use a bit in the pte to determine
refcountedness, we can use that to _completely_ replace all the vma based
schemes. So instead of adding more cases to the already complex vma-based
scheme, we can have a clearly seperate and simple pte-based scheme (and get
slightly better code generation in the process):
vm_normal_page()
{
#ifdef s390
if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
return NULL;
return pte_page(pte);
#else
...
#endif
}
And finally, we may rather make this concept usable by any architecture rather
than making it s390 only, so implement a new type of pte state for this.
Unfortunately the old vma based code must stay, because some architectures may
not be able to spare pte bits. This makes vm_normal_page a little bit more
ugly than we would like, but the 2 cases are clearly seperate.
So introduce a pte_special pte state, and use it in mm/memory.c. It is
currently a noop for all architectures, so this doesn't actually result in any
compiled code changes to mm/memory.o.
BTW:
I haven't put vm_normal_page() into arch code as-per an earlier suggestion.
The reason is that, regardless of where vm_normal_page is actually
implemented, the *abstraction* is still exactly the same. Also, while it
depends on whether the architecture has pte_special or not, that is the
only two possible cases, and it really isn't an arch specific function --
the role of the arch code should be to provide primitive functions and
accessors with which to build the core code; pte_special does that. We do
not want architectures to know or care about vm_normal_page itself, and
we definitely don't want them being able to invent something new there
out of sight of mm/ code. If we made vm_normal_page an arch function, then
we have to make vm_insert_mixed (next patch) an arch function too. So I
don't think moving it to arch code fundamentally improves any abstractions,
while it does practically make the code more difficult to follow, for both
mm and arch developers, and easier to misuse.

Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc
Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match
that of SunOS.
By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland
for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's
needs.
Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style
signal frame layout in there. The detection mechanism is that we had
sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate
"new style signal frames please".
Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff. In
fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever
had such binaries to be honest.
So let's get rid of this stuff.
I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit
applications are passing in that negative signal number still.

This sets us up for several simplifications and facilities:
1) The magic cookie lets us identify trap frames more
accurately in stack backtraces.
2) The trap type lets us simplify all of the "are we in
a syscall" state management and checks.
3) We can now see if a task off the cpu is sleeping in
a system call or not. In fact, we can see what
trap it is sleeping in whatever the type. The utrace
guys will use this.
Based upon some discussions with Roland McGrath.

One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced
me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes
the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y.
If unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all
architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides

We create a local header file entry.h, under arch/sparc64/kernel/,
that we can use to declare routines either defined in assembler
or only invoked from assembler. As well as other data objects
which are private to the inner sparc64 kernel arch code.

Doing a 'flushw' every stack trace capture creates so much overhead
that it makes lockdep next to unusable.
We only care about the frame pointer chain and the function caller
program counters, so flush those by hand to the stack frame.
This is significantly more efficient than a 'flushw' because:
1) We only save 16 bytes per active register window to the stack.
2) This doesn't push the entire register window context of the current
call chain out of the cpu, forcing register window fill traps as we
return back down.
Note that we can't use 'restore' and 'save' instructions to move
around the register windows because that wouldn't work on Niagara
processors. They optimize 'save' into a new register window by
simply clearing out the registers instead of pulling them in from
the on-chip register window backing store.
