2015-10-01clocksource / ACPI: Add probing infrastructure for ACPI-based clocksourcesMarc Zyngier
DT enjoys a rather nice probing infrastructure for clocksources, while ACPI is so far stuck into a very distant past. This patch introduces a declarative API, allowing clocksources to be self-contained and be called when parsing the GTDT table.

2015-10-01ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructureMarc Zyngier
IRQ controllers and timers are the two types of device the kernel requires before being able to use the device driver model. ACPI so far lacks a proper probing infrastructure similar to the one we have with DT, where we're able to declare IRQ chips and clocksources inside the driver code, and let the core code pick it up and call us back on a match. This leads to all kind of really ugly hacks all over the arm64 code and even in the ACPI layer. In order to allow some basic probing based on the ACPI tables, introduce "struct acpi_probe_entry" which contains just enough data and callbacks to match a table, an optional subtable, and call a probe function. A driver can, at build time, register itself and expect being called if the right entry exists in the ACPI table. A acpi_probe_device_table() is provided, taking an identifier for a set of acpi_prove_entries, and iterating over the registered entries.

2015-08-20kbuild: Fix .text.unlikely placementAndi Kleen
When building a kernel with .text.unlikely text the unlikely text for each translation unit was put next to the main .text code in the final vmlinux. The problem is that the linker doesn't allow more specific submatches of a section name in a different linker script statement after the main match. So we need to move them all into one line. With that change .text.unlikely is at the end of everything again. I also moved .text.hot into the same statement though, even though that's not strictly needed.

Found by folk getting Linux running on their cameras. - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU hot-unplug to work. Features: - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations separately from relocation cases we don't handle. - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the existing broken interface.) - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU. - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP. - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties. - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the mask and the implications of changing it. - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link. - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to have never worked in the past on these CPUs. - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output format (hopefully without userspace breaking... let's hope that if it causes someone a problem, they tell us.) - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets. - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/ flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs. This complements the Versatile Express fix above. - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8 CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this errata is enabled. Also update the help text to indicate that all r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted. - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all the information which we were already reporting. - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay() to return immediately, without any wait. Using such a slow timer is silly. - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the ARM architected timer. - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units" vdso semantic conflict fixed up as per linux-next. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (52 commits) ARM: update errata 430973 documentation to cover Cortex A8 r1p* ARM: ensure delay timer has sufficient accuracy for delays ARM: switch to use the generic show_mem() implementation ARM: proc-v7: avoid errata 430973 workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs ARM: enable ARM errata 643719 workaround by default ARM: cache-v7: optimise test for Cortex A9 r0pX devices ARM: cache-v7: optimise branches in v7_flush_cache_louis ARM: cache-v7: consolidate initialisation of cache level index ARM: cache-v7: shift CLIDR to extract appropriate field before masking ARM: cache-v7: use movw/movt instructions ARM: allow 16-bit instructions in ALT_UP() ARM: proc-arm94*.S: fix setup function ARM: vexpress: fix CPU hotplug with CT9x4 tile.

2015-04-08tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their valuesSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or __print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not have access to what the ENUM is. For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" }, { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" }) Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would not be able to map it. With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values: By adding: TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN); $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format [...] __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 0, "flush on task switch" }, { 1, "remote shootdown" }, { 2, "local shootdown" }, { 3, "local mm shootdown" }) The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to be modified to parse them.

Note that *(.text) *(.text.fixup) is not the same as *(.text .text.fixup) and we are looking for the latter, to ensure that fixup snippets that are assembled into a separate section in the object file do not end up out of range for the relative branch instructions it contains if the .text section itself grows very large.

2015-03-26serial: earlycon: Enable earlycon without command line paramPeter Hurley
Earlycon matching can only be triggered if 'earlycon=...' has been specified on the kernel command line. To workaround this limitation requires tight coupling between arches and specific serial drivers in order to start an earlycon. Devicetree avoids this limitation with a link table that contains the required data to match earlycons. Mirror this approach for earlycon match by name. Re-purpose EARLYCON_DECLARE to generate a table entry which associates name with setup() function. Re-purpose setup_earlycon() to scan this table for an earlycon match, which is registered if found. Declare one "earlycon" early_param, which calls setup_earlycon(). This design allows setup_earlycon() to be called directly with a param string (as if 'earlycon=...' had been set on the command line). Re-registration (either directly or by early_param) is prevented.

2015-03-24ARM: cpuidle: Add a cpuidle ops structure to be used for DTDaniel Lezcano
The current state of the different cpuidle drivers is the different PM operations are passed via the platform_data using the platform driver paradigm. This approach allowed to split the low level PM code from the arch specific and the generic cpuidle code. Unfortunately there are complaints about this approach as, in the context of the single kernel image, we have multiple drivers loaded in memory for nothing and the platform driver is not adequate for cpuidle. This patch provides a common interface via cpuidle ops for all new cpuidle driver and a definition for the device tree. It will allow with the next patches to a have a common definition with ARM64 and share the same cpuidle driver. The code is optimized to use the __init section intensively in order to reduce the memory footprint after the driver is initialized and unify the function names with ARM64.

2015-02-13kernel: add support for .init_array.* constructorsAndrey Ryabinin
KASan uses constructors for initializing redzones for global variables. Globals instrumentation in GCC 4.9.2 produces constructors with priority (.init_array.00099) Currently kernel ignores such constructors. Only constructors with default priority supported (.init_array) This patch adds support for constructors with priorities. For kernel image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end and do_ctors() will call them on start up. For modules we merge .init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array. Module code properly handles constructors in .init_array section.

2014-12-01iommu: provide early initialisation hook for IOMMU driversWill Deacon
IOMMU drivers must be initialised before any of their upstream devices, otherwise the relevant iommu_ops won't be configured for the bus in question. To solve this, a number of IOMMU drivers use initcalls to initialise the driver before anything has a chance to be probed. Whilst this solves the immediate problem, it leaves the job of probing the IOMMU completely separate from the iommu_ops to configure the IOMMU, which are called on a per-bus basis and require the driver to figure out exactly which instance of the IOMMU is being requested. In particular, the add_device callback simply passes a struct device to the driver, which then has to parse firmware tables or probe buses to identify the relevant IOMMU instance. This patch takes the first step in addressing this problem by adding an early initialisation pass for IOMMU drivers, giving them the ability to store some per-instance data in their iommu_ops structure and store that in their of_node. This can later be used when parsing OF masters to identify the IOMMU instance in question.

2014-07-01core: fix typo in percpu read_mostly sectionZhengyu He
This fixes a typo that named the read_mostly section of percpu as readmostly. It works fine with SMP because the linker script specifies .data..percpu..readmostly. However, UP kernel builds don't have percpu sections defined and the non-percpu version of the section is called data..read_mostly, so .data..readmostly will float around and may break things unexpectedly. Looking at the original change that introduced data..percpu..readmostly (commit c957ef2c59e952803766ddc22e89981ab534606f), it looks like this was the original intention.

2014-04-24kprobes: Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro to maintain kprobes blacklistMasami Hiramatsu
Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes blacklist at kernel build time. The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(), placed after the function definition: NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function); Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller. When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section. Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the macro (because there is no "size" information), those are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.

2014-02-11ARM: Introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() for cpu hotplug/smpStephen Boyd
The goal of multi-platform kernels is to remove the need for mach directories and machine descriptors. To further that goal, introduce CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() to allow cpu hotplug/smp support to be separated from the machine descriptors. Implementers should specify an enable-method property in their cpus node and then implement a matching set of smp_ops in their hotplug/smp code, wiring it up with the CPU_METHOD_OF_DECLARE() macro. When the kernel is compiled we'll collect all the enable-method smp_ops into one section for use at boot. At boot time we'll look for an enable-method in each cpu node and try to match that against all known CPU enable methods in the kernel. If there are no enable-methods in the cpu nodes we fallback to the cpus node and try to use any enable-method found there. If that doesn't work we fall back to the old way of using the machine descriptor.

2013-07-26tracing: Add __tracepoint_string() to export string pointersSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
There are several tracepoints (mostly in RCU), that reference a string pointer and uses the print format of "%s" to display the string that exists in the kernel, instead of copying the actual string to the ring buffer (saves time and ring buffer space). But this has an issue with userspace tools that read the binary buffers that has the address of the string but has no access to what the string itself is. The end result is just output that looks like: rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeaa 1 0 rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000 rcu_dyntick: ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000 rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b rcu_utilization: ffffffff8184333b The above is pretty useless when read by the userspace tools. Ideally we would want something that looks like this: rcu_dyntick: Start 1 0 rcu_dyntick: End 0 140000000000000 rcu_dyntick: Start 140000000000000 0 rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880037aff710 func=put_cred_rcu 0/4 rcu_callback: rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880078961980 func=file_free_rcu 0/5 rcu_dyntick: End 0 1 The trace_printk() which also only stores the address of the string format instead of recording the string into the buffer itself, exports the mapping of kernel addresses to format strings via the printk_format file in the debugfs tracing directory. The tracepoint strings can use this same method and output the format to the same file and the userspace tools will be able to decipher the address without any modification. The tracepoint strings need its own section to save the strings because the trace_printk section will cause the trace_printk() buffers to be allocated if anything exists within the section. trace_printk() is only used for debugging and should never exist in the kernel, we can not use the trace_printk sections. Add a new tracepoint_str section that will also be examined by the output of the printk_format file. Cc: Paul E.

2013-07-03rapidio: convert switch drivers to modulesAlexandre Bounine
Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable kernel modules. This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method. To simplify registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces rio_switch_ops data structure. The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines. If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch. Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management, switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO enumeration/discovery starts. This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string "_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to do so. Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set: 1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym) 3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7) 5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym) 6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX 7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version for pasting. (arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too). Let's solve this properly: 1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm. 3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(). 4) Make everyone use them.

The clocksource changes basically touch every single platform in the process. We further clean up the use of platform specific header files here, with the goal of turning more of the platforms over to being "multiplatform" enabled, which implies that they cannot expose their headers to architecture independent code any more.

2013-01-10irqchip: add basic infrastructureThomas Petazzoni
With the recent creation of the drivers/irqchip/ directory, it is desirable to move irq controller drivers here. At the moment, the only driver here is irq-bcm2835, the driver for the irq controller found in the ARM BCM2835 SoC, present in Rasberry Pi systems. This irq controller driver was exporting its initialization function and its irq handling function through a header file in <linux/irqchip/bcm2835.h>. When proposing to also move another irq controller driver in drivers/irqchip, Rob Herring raised the very valid point that moving things to drivers/irqchip was good in order to remove more stuff from arch/arm, but if it means adding gazillions of headers files in include/linux/irqchip/, it would not be very nice. So, upon the suggestion of Rob Herring and Arnd Bergmann, this commit introduces a small infrastructure that defines a central irqchip_init() function in drivers/irqchip/irqchip.c, which is meant to be called as the ->init_irq() callback of ARM platforms. This function calls of_irq_init() with an array of match strings and init functions generated from a special linker section. Note that the irq controller driver initialization function is responsible for setting the global handle_arch_irq() variable, so that ARM platforms no longer have to define the ->handle_irq field in their DT_MACHINE structure. A global header, <linux/irqchip.h> is also added to expose the single irqchip_init() function to the reset of the kernel. A further commit moves the BCM2835 irq controller driver to this new small infrastructure, therefore removing the include/linux/irqchip/ directory.

2011-05-19module: Sort exported symbolsAlessio Igor Bogani
This patch places every exported symbol in its own section (i.e. "___ksymtab+printk"). Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section (i.e. "__ksymtab"). The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols. To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary section names. This work was supported by a hardware donation from the CE Linux Forum.
