Given a device which uses arm_coherent_dma_ops and on which
dev_get_cma_area(dev) returns non-NULL, the following usage of the DMA
API with gfp=0 results in memory corruption and a memory leak.
p = dma_alloc_coherent(dev, sz, &dma, 0);
if (p)
dma_free_coherent(dev, sz, p, dma);
The memory leak is because the alloc allocates using
__alloc_simple_buffer() but the free attempts
dma_release_from_contiguous() which does not do free anything since the
page is not in the CMA area.
The memory corruption is because the free calls __dma_remap() on a page
which is backed by only first level page tables. The
apply_to_page_range() + __dma_update_pte() loop ends up interpreting the
section mapping as an addresses to a second level page table and writing
the new PTE to memory which is not used by page tables.
We don't have access to the GFP flags used for allocation in the free
function. Fix this by adding allocator backends and using this
information in the free function so that we always use the correct
release routine.

Allow zero size updates. This makes set_memory_xx() consistent with x86, s390 and arm64 and makes apply_to_page_range() not to BUG() when loading modules.

The "targets" exists to specify which files need the corresponding
".*_cmd" files to be included during the build. In other words, it
is used for files that need to detect the change of the command line
by if_changed, if_changed_dep, and if_changed_rule. While, these
files are just copied by "$(call cmd,shipped)". Adding them to the
"targets" is meaningless because $(call cmd,...) never creates
".*_cmd" files. Such files as ".lib1funcs.S.cmd", ".ashldi3.S.cmd"
do not exist in the first place.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC is set, we don't use the platform
specific putc() function, but use icedcc_putc() instead, so
putc is unused and causes a compile time warning:
In file included from ../arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c:28:0:
arch/arm/mach-rpc/include/mach/uncompress.h:79:13: warning: 'putc' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
arch/arm/mach-w90x900/include/mach/uncompress.h:30:13: warning: 'putc' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
On most platforms, this does not happen, because putc is defined
as 'static inline' so the compiler will automatically drop it
when it's unused.
This changes the remaining seven platforms to behave the same way.

Almost all architectures define init_new_context() as a function,
but on ARM, it's a macro and that causes a compiler warning when
its return code is not used:
drivers/firmware/efi/arm-runtime.c: In function 'efi_virtmap_init':
arch/arm/include/asm/mmu_context.h:88:34: warning: statement with no effect [-Wunused-value]

drivers/firmware/efi/arm-runtime.c:47:2: note: in expansion of macro 'init_new_context'
init_new_context(NULL, &efi_mm);
This changes the definition into an inline function, which gcc does
not warn about.

All drivers that are relevant for rpc or footbridge have stopped
using virt_to_bus a while ago, so we can remove it and avoid some
harmless randconfig warnings for drivers that we do not care about:
drivers/atm/zatm.c: In function 'poll_rx':
drivers/atm/zatm.c:401:18: warning: 'bus_to_virt' is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
skb = ((struct rx_buffer_head *) bus_to_virt(here[2]))->skb;
FWIW, the remaining drivers using this are:
ATM: firestream, zatm, ambassador, horizon
ISDN: hisax/netjet
V4L: STA2X11, zoran
Net: Appletalk LTPC, Tulip DE4x5, Toshiba IrDA
WAN: comtrol sv11, cosa, lanmedia, sealevel
SCSI: DPT_I2O, buslogic
VME: CA91C142
My best guess is that all of the above are so hopelessly obsolete that
we are best off removing all of them form the kernel, but that can be
done another time.

The physical-relative calculation between the XIP text and data sections
introduced by the previous patch was far from obvious. Let's simplify it
by turning it into a macro which takes the two (virtual) addresses.
This allows us to arrange the calculation in a more obvious manner - we
can make it two sub-expressions which calculate the physical address for
each symbol, and then takes the difference of those physical addresses.

When XIP_KERNEL is enabled, the virt to phys address translation for RAM

We can still override these settings via mach/memory.h, but let's provide
sensible defaults so that SPARSEMEM is available in the multiplatform
kernels.
Two platforms currently use SECTION_SIZE_BITS < 28, but are expected to
work with 28 (albeit slightly less efficiently if not all banks are
populated):
- mach-rpc: uses 26 bits. Based on mach/hardware.h it looks like this
platform puts RAM at 0x1000_0000 - 0x1fff_ffff, and I/O below
0x1000_0000.
- mach-sa1100: uses 27 bits. mach/memory.h indicates that RAM occupies
the entire range of 0xc000_0000 - 0xdfff_ffff.
But Arnd says in that rpc and sa1100 will never have to use the
default since they cannot be part of a multiplatform kernel, and that
is unlikely to change.
Several platforms need MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS >= 36 so we'll pick that as the
minimum. Anything higher and we'll fail the SECTIONS_WIDTH + NODES_WIDTH +
ZONES_WIDTH test in <linux/mm.h>.
Some analysis from Russell King at
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-October/298957.html:
I think this is fine in as far as it goes - this means we end up with
256 entries in the mem_section array which means it occupies one page,
which I think is acceptable overhead.
The other thing to be aware of here is the obvious:
#if (MAX_ORDER - 1 + PAGE_SHIFT) > SECTION_SIZE_BITS
#error Allocator MAX_ORDER exceeds SECTION_SIZE
#endif
Which means that with 28 bits of section, that's a maximum allocator
order of 16. We appear to allow FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER to be set up to
64 in the case of shmobile, which doesn't seem like a sensible upper
limit - and certainly isn't when sparsemem is enabled.
Given this, I think that FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER's help, and the
dependencies probably could do with some improvement to make the
issues more transparent.

These two targets were introduced by commit 13d5fadf45d1 ("[ARM]
Make 'i' and 'zi' targets work") to short-circuit the dependencies
for 'install' and 'zinstall'.
After that, commit 19514fc665ff ('arm, kbuild: make "make install"
not depend on vmlinux') eventually made "(z)install" equivalent to
"(z)i".
It is true that 'i' and 'zi' might be still useful as shorthands
but the original intention had been already lost.
They do not even show up in "make ARCH=arm help", so I hope this
deletion does not have much impact.

MMUv4 supports 2 concurrent page sizes: Normal and Super [4K to 16M]
So far Linux supported a single super page size for a given Normal page,
depending on the software page walking address split.
e.g. we had 11:8:13 address split for 8K page, which meant super page
was 2 ^(8+13) = 2M (given that THP size has to be PMD_SHIFT)
Now we turn this around, by allowing multiple Super Pages in Kconfig
(currently 2M and 16M only) and forcing page walker address split to
PGDIR_SHIFT and PAGE_SHIFT
For configs without Super page, things are same as before and
PGDIR_SHIFT can be hacked to get non default address split
The motivation for this change is a customer who needs 16M super page
and a 8K Normal page combo.

For an XIP build, _etext does not represent the end of the
binary image that needs to stay mapped into the MODULES_VADDR area.
Years ago, data came before text in the memory map. However,
now that the order is text/init/data, an XIP_KERNEL needs to map
up to the data location in order to keep from cutting off
parts of the kernel that are needed.
We only map up to the beginning of data because data has already been
copied, so there's no reason to keep it around anymore.
A new symbol is created to make it clear what it is we are referring
to.
This fixes the bug where you might lose the end of your kernel area
after page table setup is complete.

Commit b9b32bf70f2f ("ARM: use linker magic for vectors and vector stubs")
updated the linker script to emit the .vectors and .stubs sections into a
VMA range that is zero based and disjoint from the normal static kernel
region. The reason for that was that this way, the sections can be placed
exactly 4 KB apart, while the payload of the .vectors section is only 32
bytes.
Since the symbols that are part of the .stubs section are emitted into the
kallsyms table, they appear with zero based addresses as well, e.g.,
00001004 t vector_rst
00001020 t vector_irq
000010a0 t vector_dabt
00001120 t vector_pabt
000011a0 t vector_und
00001220 t vector_addrexcptn
00001240 t vector_fiq
00001240 T vector_fiq_offset
As this confuses perf when it accesses the kallsyms tables, commit
7122c3e9154b ("scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: only filter kernel symbols for
arm") implemented a somewhat ugly special case for ARM, where the value
of CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET is passed to scripts/kallsyms, and symbols whose
addresses are below it are filtered out. Note that this special case only
applies to CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL=n, not because the issue the patch addresses
exists only in that case, but because finding a limit below which to apply
the filtering is not entirely straightforward.
Since the .vectors and .stubs sections contain position independent code
that is never executed in place, we can emit it at its most likely runtime
VMA (for more recent CPUs), which is 0xffff0000 for the vector table and
0xffff1000 for the stubs. Not only does this fix the perf issue with
kallsyms, allowing us to drop the special case in scripts/kallsyms
entirely, it also gives debuggers a more realistic view of the address
space, and setting breakpoints or single stepping through code in the
vector table or the stubs is more likely to work as expected on CPUs that
use a high vector address. E.g.,
00001240 A vector_fiq_offset
...
c0c35000 T __init_begin
c0c35000 T __vectors_start
c0c35020 T __stubs_start
c0c35020 T __vectors_end
c0c352e0 T _sinittext
c0c352e0 T __stubs_end
...
ffff1004 t vector_rst
ffff1020 t vector_irq
ffff10a0 t vector_dabt
ffff1120 t vector_pabt
ffff11a0 t vector_und
ffff1220 t vector_addrexcptn
ffff1240 T vector_fiq
(Note that vector_fiq_offset is now an absolute symbol, which kallsyms
already ignores by default)
The LMA footprint is identical with or without this change, only the VMAs
are different:
Before:

Commit b9b32bf70f2f ("ARM: use linker magic for vectors and vector stubs")
introduced new global definitions of __vectors_start and __stubs_start,
and changed the existing ones to have internal linkage only. However, these
symbols are still visible to kallsyms, and due to the way the .vectors and
.stubs sections are emitted at the base of the VMA space, these duplicate
definitions have conflicting values.
$ nm -n vmlinux |grep -E __vectors|__stubs
00000000 t __vectors_start
00001000 t __stubs_start
c0e77000 T __vectors_start
c0e77020 T __stubs_start
This is completely harmless by itself, since the wrong values are local
symbols that cannot be referenced by other object files directly. However,
since these symbols are also listed in the kallsyms symbol table in some
cases (i.e., CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y and CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL=y), having these
conflicting values can be confusing. So either remove them, or make them
strictly local.

When building an XIP kernel, the linker script needs to be much different
than a conventional kernel's script. Over time, it's been difficult to
maintain both XIP and non-XIP layouts in one linker script. Therefore,
this patch separates the two procedures into two completely different
files.
The new linker script is essentially a straight copy of the current script
with all the non-CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL portions removed.
Additionally, all CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL portions have been removed from the
existing linker script...never to return again.
It should be noted that this does not fix any current XIP issues, but
rather is the first move in fixing them properly with subsequent patches.

drivers/firmware
ARM64 PSCI kernel interfaces that initialize idle states and implement
the suspend API to enter them are generic and can be shared with the
ARM architecture.
To achieve that goal, this patch moves ARM64 PSCI idle management
code to drivers/firmware, so that the interface to initialize and
enter idle states can actually be shared by ARM and ARM64 arches
back-ends.
The ARM generic CPUidle implementation also requires the definition of
a cpuidle_ops section entry for the kernel to initialize the CPUidle
operations at boot based on the enable-method (ie ARM64 has the
statically initialized cpu_ops counterparts for that purpose); therefore
this patch also adds the required section entry on CONFIG_ARM for PSCI so
that the kernel can initialize the PSCI CPUidle back-end when PSCI is
the probed enable-method.
On ARM64 this patch provides no functional change.

The code enabled by the ARM_CPU_SUSPEND config option is used by
kernel subsystems for purposes that go beyond system suspend so its
config entry should be augmented to take more default options into
account and avoid forcing its selection to prevent dependencies
override.
To achieve this goal, this patch reworks the ARM_CPU_SUSPEND config
entry and updates its default config value (by adding the BL_SWITCHER
option to it) and its dependencies (ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE), so that the
symbol is still selected by default by the subsystems requiring it and
at the same time enforcing the dependencies correctly.

If we know that TLB efficiency will not be an issue when memory is
accessed then it's not terribly important to allocate big chunks of
memory. The whole point of allocating the big chunks was that it would
make TLB usage efficient.
As Marek Szyprowski indicated:
Please note that mapping memory with larger pages significantly
improves performance, especially when IOMMU has a little TLB
cache. This can be easily observed when multimedia devices do
processing of RGB data with 90/270 degree rotation
Image rotation is distinctly an operation that needs to bounce around
through memory, so it makes sense that TLB efficiency is important
there.
Video decoding, on the other hand, is a fairly sequential operation.
During video decoding it's not expected that we'll be jumping all over
memory. Decoding video is also pretty heavy and the TLB misses aren't a
huge deal. Presumably most HW video acceleration users of dma-mapping
will not care about huge pages and will set DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES.
Allocating big chunks of memory is quite expensive, especially if we're
doing it repeadly and memory is full. In one (out of tree) usage model
it is common that arm_iommu_alloc_attrs() is called 16 times in a row,
each one trying to allocate 4 MB of memory. This is called whenever the
system encounters a new video, which could easily happen while the
memory system is stressed out. In fact, on certain social media
websites that auto-play video and have infinite scrolling, it's quite
common to see not just one of these 16x4MB allocations but 2 or 3 right
after another. Asking the system even to do a small amount of extra
work to give us big chunks in this case is just not a good use of time.
Allocating big chunks of memory is also expensive indirectly. Even if
we ask the system not to do ANY extra work to allocate _our_ memory,
we're still potentially eating up all big chunks in the system.
Presumably there are other users in the system that aren't quite as
flexible and that actually need these big chunks. By eating all the big
chunks we're causing extra work for the rest of the system. We also may
start making other memory allocations fail. While the system may be
robust to such failures (as is the case with dwc2 USB trying to allocate
buffers for Ethernet data and with WiFi trying to allocate buffers for
WiFi data), it is yet another big performance hit.

The __iommu_alloc_buffer() is expected to be called to allocate pretty
sizeable buffers. Upon simple tests of video I saw it trying to
allocate 4,194,304 bytes. The function tries to allocate large chunks
in order to optimize IOMMU TLB usage.
The current function is very, very slow.
One problem is the way it keeps trying and trying to allocate big
chunks. Imagine a very fragmented memory that has 4M free but no
contiguous pages at all. Further imagine allocating 4M (1024 pages).
We'll do the following memory allocations:
- For page 1:
- Try to allocate order 10 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- For page 2:
- Try to allocate order 9 (no retry)
- Try to allocate order 8 (no retry)
- ...
- Try to allocate order 0 (with retry, but not needed)
- ...
- ...
Total number of calls to alloc() calls for this case is:
sum(int(math.log(i, 2)) + 1 for i in range(1, 1025))
=> 9228
The above is obviously worse case, but given how slow alloc can be we
really want to try to avoid even somewhat bad cases. I timed the old
code with a device under memory pressure and it wasn't hard to see it
take more than 120 seconds to allocate 4 megs of memory! (NOTE: testing
was done on kernel 3.14, so possibly mainline would behave
differently).
A second problem is that allocating big chunks under memory pressure
when we don't need them is just not a great idea anyway unless we really
need them. We can make due pretty well with smaller chunks so it's
probably wise to leave bigger chunks for other users once memory
pressure is on.
Let's adjust the allocation like this:
1. If a big chunk fails, stop trying to hard and bump down to lower
order allocations.
2. Don't try useless orders. The whole point of big chunks is to
optimize the TLB and it can really only make use of 2M, 1M, 64K and
4K sizes.
We'll still tend to eat up a bunch of big chunks, but that might be the
right answer for some users. A future patch could possibly add a new
DMA_ATTR that would let the caller decide that TLB optimization isn't
important and that we should use smaller chunks. Presumably this would
be a sane strategy for some callers.

The tmp variable is used twice: first to pose as a register containing
a value of zero, and then to provide a temporary register that initially
is zero and get added some value. But somehow gcc decides to split those
two usages in different registers.
Example code:
u64 div64const1000(u64 x)
{
u32 y = 1000;
do_div(x, y);
return x;
}
Result:
div64const1000:

Here the two instances of 'tmp' are assigned to r1 and lr.
To avoid that, let's mark the first 'tmp' usage in __arch_xprod_64()
with a "+r" constraint even if the register is not written to, so to
create a dependency for the second usage with the effect of enforcing
a single temporary register throughout.
Result:
div64const1000:

This time 'tmp' is assigned to r3 and used throughout. However, by being
assigned to r3, that blocks usage of the r2-r3 double register slot for
64-bit values, forcing more registers to be spilled on the stack. Let's
try to help it by forcing 'tmp' to the caller-saved ip register.
Result:
div64const1000:
stmfd sp!, {r4, r5}

We could make the code marginally smaller yet by forcing 'tmp' to lr
instead, but that would have a negative inpact on branch prediction for
which "bx lr" is optimal.

Since the dawn of time the ICST code has only supported divide
by one or hang in an eternal loop. Luckily we were always dividing
by one because the reference frequency for the systems using
the ICSTs is 24MHz and the [min,max] values for the PLL input
if [10,320] MHz for ICST307 and [6,200] for ICST525, so the loop
will always terminate immediately without assigning any divisor
for the reference frequency.
But for the code to make sense, let's insert the missing i++

Depending on the configuration either the 32 or 64 bit version of
elf_check_arch() is defined. parse_crash_elf{32|64}_headers() does
some basic verification of the ELF header via
vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() which happen to map to elf_check_arch().
Since the implementation 32 and 64 bit version of elf_check_arch()
differ, we use the wrong type:
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:4:0,
from fs/proc/vmcore.c:13:
fs/proc/vmcore.c: In function 'parse_crash_elf64_headers':
>> arch/mips/include/asm/elf.h:228:23: error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
struct elfhdr *__h = (hdr); \
^
include/linux/crash_dump.h:41:37: note: in expansion of macro 'elf_check_arch'
#define vmcore_elf64_check_arch(x) (elf_check_arch(x) || vmcore_elf_check_arch_cross(x))
^
fs/proc/vmcore.c:1015:4: note: in expansion of macro 'vmcore_elf64_check_arch'
!vmcore_elf64_check_arch(&ehdr) ||
^
Therefore, we rather define vmcore_elf{32|64}_check_arch() as a
basic machine check and use it also in binfm_elf?32.c as well.

The ARM GICv3 specification mentions the need for dsb after a read
from the ICC_IAR1_EL1 register:
4.1.1 Physical CPU Interface:
The effects of reading ICC_IAR0_EL1 and ICC_IAR1_EL1
on the state of a returned INTID are not guaranteed
to be visible until after the execution of a DSB.
Not having this could result in missed interrupts, so let's add the
required barrier.

ARC HS Cores support configurable multiple interrupt priorities of upto
16 levels.
There is processor "interrupt preemption threshhold" in STATUS32.E[4:1]
And several places need to set this up:
1. seed value as kernel is booting
2. seed value for user space programs
3. Arg to SLEEP instruction in idle task (what interrupt prio can wake)
4. Per-IRQ line prioirty (i.e. what is the priority of interrupt
raised by a peripheral or timer or perf counter...
Currently above sites use the highest priority 0. This can be potential
problem when multiple priorities are supported. e.g. user space could
only be interrupted by P0 interrupt, not others...
So turn this over and instead make default interruption level to be
the lowest priority possible 15. This should be fine even if there are
fewer priority levels configured (say two: P0 HIGH, P1 LOW)
This feature also effectively disables FIRQ feature if present in
hardware config. With old code, a P0 interrupt would be FIRQ, needing
special handling (ISR or Register Banks) which is NOT supported yet.
Now it not be P0 (P15 or whatever is lowest prio) so FIRQ is not
triggered.
