766f6d2a32 ARM: 7778/1: smp_twd: twd_update_frequency need be run on all online CPUs
commit cbbe6f82b4 upstream.

When the local timer freq changed, the twd_update_frequency function
should be run all the CPUs include itself, otherwise, the twd freq will
not get updated and the local timer will not run correcttly.

smp_call_function will run functions on all other CPUs, but not include
himself, this is not correct,use on_each_cpu instead to fix this issue.

e6a01df4cd ARM: 7769/1: Cortex-A15: fix erratum 798181 implementation
commit 0d0752bca1 upstream.

Looking into the active_asids array is not enough, as we also need
to look into the reserved_asids array (they both represent processes
that are currently running).

Also, not holding the ASID allocator lock is racy, as another CPU
could schedule that process and trigger a rollover, making the erratum
workaround miss an IPI.

Exposing this outside of context.c is a little ugly on the side, so
let's define a new entry point that the erratum workaround can call
to obtain the cpumask.

c9f3f7f79f ARM: 7765/1: perf: Record the user-mode PC in the call chain.
commit c5f927a6f6 upstream.

With this change, we no longer lose the innermost entry in the user-mode
part of the call chain.  See also the x86 port, which includes the ip.

It's possible to partially work around this problem by post-processing
the data to use the PERF_SAMPLE_IP value, but this works only if the CPU
wasn't in the kernel when the sample was taken.

4ab2679351 HMP: experimental: Force all rt tasks to start on little domain.
This patch restricts the allowed cpu mask for rt tasks initially started
with a full cpu mask to the little domain.

An rt task is specified as real time in __setscheduler() which is finally
called for all rt tasks (kernel and user land). In this function we
restrict the allowed cpu mask to the little domain.

This also prevents that a rt tasks can later be pushed to the big domain
because the function find_lowest_rq() will only recognize the allowed cpu
mask of a task to find the new cpu the task runs on.

Current kludges of the patch:

* Since we do not have an API to get the cpu mask of the A7 cluster,
hmp_slow_cpu_mask is made global in arm/kernel/topology.c for now.

* The watchdog_enable() function calls sched_setscheduler() before
kthread_bind() for the cpu specific watchdog kernel threads. The order of
these two calls has to be changed to make this patch work.

The patch "sched: Use device-tree to provide fast/slow CPU list for HMP"
depends on the ordering of CPU's in the device tree. It breaks to determine
the logical mask correctly if the logical mask of the CPUs differ from
physical ordering in the device tree.

This patch fix the logic by depending on the mpidr in the device tree
and mapping that mpidr to the logical cpu.

SCHED_HMP requires the different cpu types to be represented by an
ordered list of hmp_domains. Each hmp_domain represents all cpus of
a particular type using a cpumask.

The list is platform specific and therefore must be generated by
platform code by implementing arch_get_hmp_domains().

dc68bd9210 ARM: sched: Use device-tree to provide fast/slow CPU list for HMP
We can't rely on Kconfig options to set the fast and slow CPU lists for
HMP scheduling if we want a single kernel binary to support multiple
devices with different CPU topology. E.g. TC2 (ARM's Test-Chip-2
big.LITTLE system), Fast Models, or even non big.LITTLE devices.

This patch adds the function arch_get_fast_and_slow_cpus() to generate
the lists at run-time by parsing the CPU nodes in device-tree; it
assumes slow cores are A7s and everything else is fast. The function
still supports the old Kconfig options as this is useful for testing the
HMP scheduler on devices without big.LITTLE.

This patch is reuse of a patch by Jon Medhurst <tixy@linaro.org> with a
few bits left out.

Without that check on Panda with CPUIDLE enabled, a flood of
below messages thrown.

[ 3.597930] hw-breakpoint: CPU 0 failed to disable vector catch
[ 3.597991] hw-breakpoint: CPU 1 failed to disable vector catch

e91e991e13 ARM: disable preemption in machine_shutdown
Since the smp call to stop the other cpus are handled in those
cpus in interrupt context, there's a potential for those smp
handlers to interrupt threads holding spin locks (such as the
one a mutex holds).  This prevents those threads from ever
releasing their spin lock, so if the cpu doing the shutdown
is allowed to switch to another thread that tries to grab the
same lock/mutex, we could get into a deadlock (the spin lock
call is called with preemption disabled in the mutex lock code).

To avoid that possibility, disable preemption before doing the
smp_send_stop().

If the write address was at the end of the buffer, toggling the trace

if any of the stop bits in the formatter is set toggling the trace
capture bit may not do anything.

Instead use the read position to find out if the data has already
been returned.

This also fixes the read function so it works when the trace buffer is
larger than the buffer passed in from user space. The old version
would reset the trace buffer pointers after every read, so the second
call to read would always return 0.

b4ef696dc1 ARM: allow the kernel text section to be made read-only
This patch implements CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, allowing
the kernel text section to be marked read-only in
order to catch bugs that write over the kernel.  This
requires mapping the kernel code, plus up to 4MB, using
pages instead of sections, which can increase TLB
pressure.

The kernel is normally mapped using 1MB section entries
in the first level page table, and the first level page
table is copied into every mm.  This prevents marking
the kernel text read-only, because the 1MB section
entries are too large granularity to separate the init
section, which is reused as read-write memory after
init, and the kernel text section.  Also, the top level
page table for every process would need to be updated,
which is not possible to do safely and efficiently on SMP.

To solve both problems, allow alloc_init_pte to overwrite
an existing section entry with a fully-populated second
level page table.  When CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, all
the section entries that overlap the kernel text section
will be replaced with page mappings.  The kernel always
uses a pair of 2MB-aligned 1MB sections, so up to 2MB
of memory before and after the kernel may end up page
mapped.

When the top level page tables are copied into each
process the second level page tables are not copied,
leaving a single second level page table that will
affect all processes on all cpus.  To mark a page
read-only, the second level page table is located using
the pointer in the first level page table for the
current process, and the supervisor RO bit is flipped
atomically.  Once all pages have been updated, all TLBs
are flushed to ensure the changes are visible on all
cpus.

If CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set, the kernel will be
mapped using the normal 1MB section entries.

607503f2a7 ARM: smp: implement arch_trigger_all_cpus_backtrace using IPI
Based on a rough patch by frank.rowand@am.sony.com

Since ARM doesn't have an NMI (fiq's are not always available),
send an IPI to all other CPUs (current cpu prints the stack directly)
to capture a backtrace.

f833f2c25f ARM: add option to flush console before reboot
If the console_lock was held while the system was rebooted, the messages
in the temporary logbuffer would not have propogated to all the console
drivers.

This force releases the console lock if it failed to be acquired.

f8c889662f ARM: b.L: assume aliasing I-cache
To deal with the I-cache discrepancy between Cortex-A15 and Cortex-A7,
let's assume aliasing I-cache in both cases.

Note: this might need to be refined i.e. detect a big.LITTLE system
somehow by probing all CPUs not only the boot one.

59e1c2d0f9 ARM: kernel: Fix compilation of sleep.S on ARMv6
The patch "ARM: kernel: fix MPIDR cpu_{suspend}/{resume} usage"
uses the BFC assembler instruction but this isn't available
on ARMv6 CPUs, which breaks compilation when building kernels which
support both SMP and ARMv6, e.g. omap2plus_defconifg.

Fix this by using a BIC instruction instead.

5276597a46 ARM: kernel: fix MPIDR cpu_{suspend}/{resume} usage
The current version of cpu_{suspend}/{resume} relies on the 8 LSBs of
the MPIDR register to index the context pointer saved and restored on
CPU shutdown. This approach breaks as soon as platforms with populated
MPIDR affinity levels 1 and 2 are deployed, since the MPIDR cannot be
considered a linear index anymore.

There are multiple solutions to this problem, each with pros and cons.

This patch changes cpu_{suspend}/{resume} so that the CPU logical id
is used to retrieve an index into the context pointers array.

Performance is impacted on both save and restore paths. On save path
the CPU logical id has to be retrieved from thread_info; since caches
are on, the performance hit should be neglectable. In the resume code
path the MMU is off and so are the caches. The patch adds a trivial for
loop that polls the cpu_logical_map array scanning the present MPIDRs and
retrieves the actual CPU logical index. Since everything runs out of
strongly ordered memory the perfomance hit in the resume code path must
be measured and thought over; it worsens as the number of CPUs increases
since it is a linear search (but can be improved).

On the up side, the logical index approach is by far the easiest solution in
terms of coding and make dynamic changes to the cpu mapping trivial at
run-time.

Any change to the cpu_logical_map (ie in-kernel switcher) at run time must be
cleaned from the caches since this data has to be retrieved with the MMU
off, when caches are not searched.

Tested on TC2 and fast models.

b5fdc36b35 ARM: psci: add cmdline option to enable use of psci
This patch adds the 'psci' kernel command line option. Secure firmware cannot
yet add a psci device node in the dt to indicate whether it supports psci or
not. So in the current dt, the psci device node is present by default. The
probe function will always indicate that the secure firmware implements psci
irrespective of the address space linux runs in as the same device tree will
be used in either case. Hence a kernel cmdline option is required to choose
either the native or psci power api backend depending upon the address space
linux is running in.

Specifying 'psci=enable' in the cmdline will allow Linux running in the
non-secure address space to use the same dt but use the psci backend instead
of the native backend. It effectively overrides the presence of the native
implementation by ensuring registration of the psci backend. Linux running in
the secure address space will use the native backend for power management when
'psci=disable' in the cmdline (also the default value i.e. psci backend is
disabled by default) or the psci node in the dt is absent.
