* arm: fix the comment in vfp_thread_copy

KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler.
This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the
number of unique stack traces needed to be stored.
Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the
users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the
__softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the
corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

Having IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE as SGI15 may not work if the kernel is
running in non-secure mode and that the secure firmware has
decided to follow ARM's recommendations that SGI8-15 should
be reserved for secure purpose.
Now that we are "only" using SGI0-6, change IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE
to use SGI7, which makes it more likely to work.

(cherry picked from commit e7273ff49a)
Since 9a46ad6d6d ("smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic
similar to smp_call_function_single()"), the core IPI handling
has been simplified, and generic_smp_call_function_interrupt is
now the same as generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt.
This means that one of IPI_CALL_FUNC and IPI_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE has
become redundant. We can then safely drop IPI_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE,
and use only IPI_CALL_FUNC.
This has the advantage of reducing the number of SGI IDs we're using
(a fairly scarse resource).
Tested on a dual A7 board.

commit 3aaf33bebd upstream.
When qemu starts a kernel in a bare environment, the default SCR has
the AW and FW bits clear, which means that the kernel can't modify
the PSR A or PSR F bits, and means that FIQs and imprecise aborts are
always masked.
When running uboot under qemu, the AW and FW SCR bits are set, and the
kernel functions normally - and this is how real hardware behaves.
Fix this for qemu by ignoring the FIQ bit.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_USER is enabled, it's possible for a user to
deliberately trigger dump_instr() with a chosen kernel address.
Let's avoid problems resulting from this by using get_user() rather than
__get_user(), ensuring that we don't erroneously access kernel memory.
So that we can use the same code to dump user instructions and kernel
instructions, the common dumping code is factored out to __dump_instr(),
with the fs manipulated appropriately in dump_instr() around calls to
this.

commit 5008efc83b upstream.
The PJ4 inline asm sequence to write to cp15 cannot be built in Thumb-2
mode, due to the way it performs arithmetic on the program counter, so it
is built in ARM mode instead. However, building C files in ARM mode under
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL is problematic, since the instrumentation performed
by subsystems like ftrace does not expect having to deal with interworking
branches.
Since the sequence in question is simply a poor man's ISB instruction,
let's use a straight 'isb' instead when building in Thumb2 mode. Thumb2
implies V7, so 'isb' should always be supported in that case.

commit 90f92c631b upstream.
The following patch was sketched by Russell in response to my
crashes on the PB11MPCore after the patch for software-based
priviledged no access support for ARMv8.1. See this thread:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=144051749807214&w=2
I am unsure what is going on, I suspect everyone involved in
the discussion is. I just want to repost this to get the
discussion restarted, as I still have to apply this patch
with every kernel iteration to get my PB11MPCore Realview
running.
Testing by Neil Armstrong on the Oxnas NAS has revealed that
this bug exist also on that widely deployed hardware, so
we are probably currently regressing all ARM11MPCore systems.

commit ddc37832a1 upstream.
On APQ8060, the kernel crashes in arch_hw_breakpoint_init, taking an
undefined instruction trap within write_wb_reg. This is because Scorpion
CPUs erroneously appear to set DBGPRSR.SPD when WFI is issued, even if
the core is not powered down. When DBGPRSR.SPD is set, breakpoint and
watchpoint registers are treated as undefined.
It's possible to trigger similar crashes later on from userspace, by
requesting the kernel to install a breakpoint or watchpoint, as we can
go idle at any point between the reset of the debug registers and their
later use. This has always been the case.
Given that this has always been broken, no-one has complained until now,
and there is no clear workaround, disable hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints on Scorpion to avoid these issues.

Whilst MPIDR values themselves are less than 32 bits, it is still
perfectly valid for a DT to have #address-cells > 1 in the CPUs node,
resulting in the "reg" property having leading zero cell(s). In that
situation, the big-endian nature of the data conspires with the current
behaviour of only reading the first cell to cause the kernel to think
all CPUs have ID 0, and become resoundingly unhappy as a consequence.
Take the full property length into account when parsing CPUs so as to
be correct under any circumstances.

This patch is only here to be able to test provisioning of energy related
data from an arch topology shim layer to the scheduler. Since there is no
code today which deals with extracting energy related data from the dtb or
acpi, and process it in the topology shim layer, the content of the
sched_group_energy structures as well as the idle_state and capacity_state
arrays are hard-coded here.
This patch defines the sched_group_energy structure as well as the
idle_state and capacity_state array for the cluster (relates to sched
groups (sgs) in DIE sched domain level) and for the core (relates to sgs
in MC sd level) for a Cortex A7 as well as for a Cortex A15.
It further provides related implementations of the sched_domain_energy_f
functions (cpu_cluster_energy() and cpu_core_energy()).
To be able to propagate this information from the topology shim layer to
the scheduler, the elements of the arm_topology[] table have been
provisioned with the appropriate sched_domain_energy_f functions.

Maximum Frequency Invariance has to be part of Cpu Invariance because
Frequency Invariance deals only with differences in load-tracking
introduces by Dynamic Frequency Scaling and not with limiting the
possible range of cpu frequency.
By placing Maximum Frequency Invariance into Cpu Invariance,
load-tracking is scaled via arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
in __update_load_avg() and cpu capacity is scaled via
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() in update_cpu_capacity().
To be able to save the extra multiplication in the scheduler hotpath
(__update_load_avg()) we could:
1 Inform cpufreq about base cpu capacity at boot and let it handle
scale_cpu_capacity() as well.
2 Use the cpufreq policy callback which would update a per-cpu current
cpu_scale and this value would be return in scale_cpu_capacity().
3 Use per-cpu current max_freq_scale and current cpu_scale with the
current patch.

Provides the scheduler with a cpu scaling correction factor for more
accurate load-tracking and cpu capacity handling.
The Energy Model (EM) (in fact the capacity value of the last element
of the capacity states vector of the core (MC) level sched_group_energy
structure) is used instead of the arm arch specific cpu_efficiency and
dtb property 'clock-frequency' values as the source for this cpu
scaling factor.
The cpu capacity value depends on the micro-architecture and the
maximum frequency of the cpu.
The maximum frequency part should not be confused with the frequency
invariant scheduler load-tracking support which deals with frequency
related scaling due to DFVS functionality.

cpufreq is currently keeping it a secret which cpus are sharing
clock source. The scheduler needs to know about clock domains as well
to become more energy aware. The SD_SHARE_CAP_STATES domain flag
indicates whether cpus belonging to the sched_domain share capacity
states (P-states).
There is no connection with cpufreq (yet). The flag must be set by
the arch specific topology code.

The _etext position is defined to be the end of the kernel text code,
and should not include any part of the data segments. This interferes
with things that might check memory ranges and expect executable code
up to _etext. Just to be conservative, leave the kernel resource as
it was, using __init_begin instead of _etext as the end mark.
