The non-IPI interrupts are displayed only for the online cpus from
show_interrupts in kernel/irq/proc.c before calling arch_show_interrupts().
As a result, the column headers and the IPI count don't match if any
CPU is offline.
This patch fixes show_ipi_list to display IPIs for online CPUs only.

preempt_count is defined as an int. Oddly enough, we access it
as a 64bit value. Things become interesting when running a BE
kernel, and looking at the current CPU number, which is stored
as an int next to preempt_count. Like in a per-cpu interrupt
handler, for example...
Using a 32bit access fixes the issue for good.

Here, we end-up calling gic_raise_softirq without having initialized
the interrupt controller for this CPU. While this goes unnoticed
with GICv2 (the distributor is always accessible), it explodes with
GICv3.
The fix is to move the call to notify_cpu_starting before we set
the secondary CPU online.

Commit e8765b265a69 (arm64: read enable-method for CPU0) introduced
checks for the enable method on CPU0 (to be later used with CPU
suspend). However, if the kernel is compiled for UP and a DT file is
used with a method like 'spin-table', Linux complains about 'invalid
enable method'. This patch turns it into an 'unsupported enable method'

Once the cpu_logical_map for any logical cpu is populated with the
corresponding physical identifier(i.e. mpidr), it's device node can

'cpu_read_bootcpu_ops'.

OF/DT core library provides architecture specific hook to match the
logical cpu index with the corresponding physical identifier.
On ARM64, the MPIDR_EL1 contains specific bitfields(MPIDR_EL1.Aff{3..0})
which uniquely identify a CPU, in addition to some non-identifying
information and reserved bits. The ARM cpu binding defines the 'reg'
property to only contain the affinity bits, and any cpu nodes with other
bits set in their 'reg' entry are skipped.
This patch overrides the weak definition of arch_match_cpu_phys_id
with ARM64 specific version using MPIDR_EL1.Aff{3..0} as cpu physical
identifiers.

either be outside of kernel RAM or in an already mapped reserved area of

This patch updates the barrier semantics in the kuser helper functions
to take advantage of the ARMv8 additions to AArch32, which are
guaranteed to be available in situations where these functions will be
called.
Note that this slightly changes the cmpxchg functions in that they are
no longer necessarily full barriers if they return 1. However, the
documentation only states they include their own barriers "as needed",
not that they are obligated to act as a full barrier for the caller.

Currently when CPUs are brought online via a spin-table, the address
they should jump to is written to the cpu-release-addr in the kernel's
native endianness. As the kernel may switch endianness, secondaries
might read the value byte-reversed from what was intended, and they
would jump to the wrong address.
As the only current arm64 spin-table implementations are
little-endian, stricten up the arm64 spin-table definition such that
the value written to cpu-release-addr is _always_ little-endian
regardless of the endianness of any CPU. If a spinning CPU is
operating big-endian, it must byte-reverse the value before jumping to
handle this.

The endianness of memory accesses at EL2 and EL1 are configured by
SCTLR_EL2.EE and SCTLR_EL1.EE respectively. When the kernel is booted,
the state of SCTLR_EL{2,1}.EE is unknown, and thus the kernel must
ensure that they are set before performing any memory accesses.
This patch ensures that SCTLR_EL{2,1} are configured appropriately at
boot for kernels of either endianness.

With the advent of CPU_HOTPLUG, the enable-method property for CPU0 may
tells us something useful (i.e. how to hotplug it back on), so we must
read it along with all the enable-method for all the other CPUs. Even
on UP the enable-method may tell us useful information (e.g. if a core
has some mechanism that might be usable for cpuidle), so we should
always read it.
This patch factors out the reading of the enable method, and ensures
that CPU0's enable method is read regardless of whether the kernel is
built with SMP support.

The arm64 kernel has an internal holding pen, which is necessary for
some systems where we can't bring CPUs online individually and must hold
multiple CPUs in a safe area until the kernel is able to handle them.
The current SMP infrastructure for arm64 is closely coupled to this
holding pen, and alternative boot methods must launch CPUs into the pen,
where they sit before they are launched into the kernel proper.
With PSCI (and possibly other future boot methods), we can bring CPUs
online individually, and need not perform the secondary_holding_pen
dance. Instead, this patch factors the holding pen management code out
to the spin-table boot method code, as it is the only boot method
requiring the pen.
A new entry point for secondaries, secondary_entry is added for other
boot methods to use, which bypasses the holding pen and its associated
overhead when bringing CPUs online. The smp.pen.text section is also
removed, as the pen can live in head.text without problem.
The cpu_operations structure is extended with two new functions,
cpu_boot and cpu_postboot, for bringing a cpu into the kernel and
performing any post-boot cleanup required by a bootmethod (e.g.
resetting the secondary_holding_pen_release to INVALID_HWID).
Documentation is added for cpu_operations.

For hotplug support, we're going to want a place to store operations
that do more than bring CPUs online, and it makes sense to group these
with our current smp_enable_ops. For cpuidle support, we'll want to
group additional functions, and we may want them even for UP kernels.
This patch renames smp_enable_ops to the more general cpu_operations,
and pulls the definitions out of smp code such that they can be used in
UP kernels. While we're at it, fix up instances of the cpu parameter to
be an unsigned int, drop the init markings and rename the *_cpu
functions to cpu_* to reduce future churn when cpu_operations is

If 'number of arguments(n)' is zero and 'argument index(i)' is also zero in
syscall_get_arguments(), none of arguments should be copied by memcpy().
Otherwise 'n--' can be a big positive number and unexpected amount of data

may hit this case and eventually make the system corrupted.

Register with the generic sched_clock framework now that it
supports 64 bits. This fixes two problems with the current
sched_clock support for machines using the architected timers.
First off, we don't subtract the start value from subsequent
sched_clock calls so we can potentially start off with
sched_clock returning gigantic numbers. Second, there is no
support for suspend/resume handling so problems such as discussed
in 6a4dae5 (ARM: 7565/1: sched: stop sched_clock() during
suspend, 2012-10-23) can happen without this patch. Finally, it
allows us to move the sched_clock setup into drivers clocksource
out of the arch ports.

Currently, development on arm64 is aided by a Foundation_v8 emulator
distributed by ARM [1]. To run their kernels, users will execute:
$ ./Foundation_v8 --image linux-system.axf --block-device raring-rootfs
To mount the raring-rootfs filesystem, the kernel parameter should
typically include:
root=/dev/vda
For this device to be present, the kernel must be compiled with
VIRTIO_{MMIO,BLK}. To make this work out-of-the-box, make it part of the
default configuration.
