Without this change a saw an 18% increase in idle power consumption
on one deivce when trace support is compiled into the kernel. Now
I see the same increase only when tracing.

If more than one ETM or PTM are present, configure all of them
and enable the formatter in the ETB. This allows tracing on dual
core systems (e.g. omap4).

On some SOCs the read and write pointer are reset when the chip
resets, but the trace buffer content is preserved. If the status
bits indicates that the buffer is empty and we have never started
tracing, assume the buffer is full instead. This can be useful
if the system rebooted from a watchdog reset.

It is not safe to call etm_lock or etb_lock without holding the
mutex since another thread may also have unlocked the registers.
Also add some missing checks for valid etb_regs in the etm sysfs
entries.

The old code enabled data tracing, but did not configure the
range. We now configure it to trace all data addresses by default,
and add a trace_data_range attribute to change the range or disable
data tracing.

Trace kernel text segment by default as before, allow tracing of other
ranges by writing a range to /sys/devices/etm/trace_range, or to trace
everything by writing 0 0.

If the write address was at the end of the buffer, toggling the trace
capture bit would set the RAM-full status instead of clearing it, and
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.

On some systems kernel code is considered secure, and this code
already limits tracing to the kernel text segment which results
in no trace data.

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.

vfp_pm_suspend should save the VFP state in suspend after
any lazy context switch. If it only saves when the VFP is enabled,
the state can get lost when, on a UP system:
Thread 1 uses the VFP
Context switch occurs to thread 2, VFP is disabled but the
VFP context is not saved
Thread 2 initiates suspend
vfp_pm_suspend is called with the VFP disabled, and the unsaved
VFP context of Thread 1 in the registers
Modify vfp_pm_suspend to save the VFP context whenever
vfp_current_hw_state is not NULL.

We can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling flush_cache_user_range
because the flush can fault. If we fault on a user address, the
page fault handler will try to take mmap_sem again. Since both places
acquire the read lock, most of the time it succeeds. However, if another
thread tries to acquire the write lock on the mmap_sem (e.g. mmap) in
between the call to flush_cache_user_range and the fault, the down_read
in do_page_fault will deadlock.
Also, since we really can't be holding the mmap_sem while calling
flush_cache_user_range AND vma is actually unused by the flush itself,
get rid of vma as an argument.

Linux uses two PMD entries for a PTE with the classic page table format,
covering 2MB range. However, the __pte_free_tlb() function only adds a
single TLB flush corresponding to 1MB range covering 'addr'. On
Cortex-A15, level 1 entries can be cached by the TLB independently of
the level 2 entries and without additional flushing a PMD entry would be
left pointing at the wrong PTE. The patch limits the TLB flushing range
to two 4KB pages around the 1MB boundary within PMD.

context switching code (see "ARM: vfp: flush thread hwstate before

In a preemptible kernel, vfp_set() can be preempted, causing the
hardware VFP context to be switched while the thread vfp state is
being read and modified. This leads to a race condition which can
cause the thread vfp state to become corrupted if lazy VFP context
save occurs due to preemption in between the time thread->vfpstate
is read and the time the modified state is written back.
This may occur if preemption occurs during the execution of a
ptrace() call which modifies the VFP register state of a thread.
Such instances should be very rare in most realistic scenarios --
none has been reported, so far as I am aware. Only uniprocessor
systems should be affected, since VFP context save is not currently
lazy in SMP kernels.
The problem was introduced by my earlier patch migrating to use
regsets to implement ptrace.
This patch does a vfp_sync_hwstate() before reading
thread->vfpstate, to make sure that the thread's VFP state is not
live in the hardware registers while the registers are modified.
Thanks to Will Deacon for spotting this.

Following execution of a signal handler, we currently restore the VFP
context from the ucontext in the signal frame. This involves copying
from the user stack into the current thread's vfp_hard_struct and then
flushing the new data out to the hardware registers.
This is problematic when using a preemptible kernel because we could be
context switched whilst updating the vfp_hard_struct. If the current
thread has made use of VFP since the last context switch, the VFP
notifier will copy from the hardware registers into the vfp_hard_struct,
overwriting any data that had been partially copied by the signal code.
Disabling preemption across copy_from_user calls is a terrible idea, so
instead we move the VFP thread flush *before* we update the
vfp_hard_struct. Since the flushing is performed lazily, this has the
effect of disabling VFP and clearing the CPU's VFP state pointer,
therefore preventing the thread from being updated with stale data on
the next context switch.

0x000003ff > 0x00203fff)
The if condition fails, and so we _believe_ that the SRAM mapping fits
our request. Clearly that's totally bogus.
Moreover, the original premise of the 'fix' patch was wrong:
| The condition checking boundaries of the requested and existing
| mappings didn't take in-page offset into consideration though,
| which lead to obscure and hard to debug problems when requested
| mapping crossed end of the static one.
as the code immediately above this loop does:
size = PAGE_ALIGN(offset + size);
so 'size' already contains the requested offset into the page.
So, revert the broken 'fix'.

Both sparc 32-bit's software divide assembler and MPILIB provide
clz_tab[] with identical contents.
Break it out into a seperate object file and select it when
SPARC32 or MPILIB is set.

Return to behaviour perf MSR had before introducing vPMU in case vPMU
is disabled. Some guests access those registers unconditionally and do
not expect it to fail.

On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests
may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following
nasm-demo-application:
[bits 32]
global _start
SECTION .text
_start: syscall
(I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed)
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <_start>:
0: 0f 05 syscall
The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the
syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs
within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode.
(depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid)
Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding
syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain
NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple
faults and finally crashs.
Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by
guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation
are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave
like the CPUs physical counterparts.
