Chris Metcalf 4a556f4f56 tile: implement gettimeofday() via vDSO
This change creates the framework for vDSO calls, makes the existing
rt_sigreturn() mechanism use it, and adds a fast gettimeofday().
Now that we need to expose the vDSO address to userspace, we add
AT_SYSINFO_EHDR to the set of aux entries provided to userspace.
(You can disable any extra vDSO support by booting with vdso=0,
but the rt_sigreturn vDSO page will still be provided.)

Note that glibc has supported the tile vDSO since release 2.17.

Chris Metcalf 0c1d1917c5 tile: support simulator notification for ET_DYN objects
The tile code notifies the simulator of new ET_EXEC objects starting
to execute so that tracing code can properly annotate the objects.
However, we didn't support ET_DYN executables like ld.so, so we
didn't properly load symbols, etc.  This change enables that support;
we use a variant of the SIM_CONTROL_DLOPEN simulator notification
that newer simulators will recognize and use to set the base address
for the next SIM_CONTROL_OS_EXEC notification.

Chris Metcalf 70d2b5958a tile: improve illegal translation interrupt handling
First, don't re-enable interrupts blindly in the Linux trap handler.
We already handle page faults this way; synchronous interrupts like
ILL_TRANS will fire even when interrupts are disabled, and we don't
want to re-enable interrupts in that case.

For ILL_TRANS, we now pass the ILL_VA_PC reason into the trap handler
so we can report it properly; this is the address that caused the
illegal translation trap.  We print the address as part of the
pr_alert() message now if it's coming from the kernel.

Chris Metcalf ba02f0eb82 tile: improve big-endian support
First, fix a bug in asm/unaligned.h; we need to just use the asm-generic
unaligned.h so we properly choose endian-correct flavors.

Second, keep the hv/hypervisor.h ABI fully "native" in the sense that
we don't have __BIG_ENDIAN__ ifdefs there.  Instead, we use macros in
the head_NN.S assembly code to properly extract two 32-bit structure
members from a 64-bit register holding the structure.

Chris Metcalf a0bd12d718 tile: fix some issues in hugepage support
First, in huge_pte_offset(), we were erroneously checking
pgd_present(), which is always true, rather than pud_present(),
which is the thing that tells us if there is a top-level (L0) PTE.
Fixing this means we properly look up huge page entries only when
the Present bit is actually set in the PTE.

Second, use the standard pte_alloc_map() instead of the hand-rolled
pte_alloc_hugetlb() routine that basically was written to avoid
worrying about CONFIG_HIGHPTE.  However, we no longer plan to support
HIGHPTE, so a separate routine was just unnecessary code duplication.

Chris Metcalf 3ef2311154 tile: avoid recursive backtrace faults
This change adds support for avoiding recursive backtracer crashes;
we haven't seen this in practice other than when things are seriously
corrupt, but it may help avoid losing the root cause of a crash.

Also, don't abort kernel backtracers for invalid userspace PC's.
If we do, we lose the ability to backtrace through a userspace
call to a bad address above PAGE_OFFSET, even though that it can
be perfectly reasonable to continue the backtrace in such a case.

Chris Metcalf 2f9ac29eec tile: fast-path unaligned memory access for tilegx
This change enables unaligned userspace memory access via a kernel
fast path on tilegx.  The kernel tracks user PC/instruction pairs
per-thread using a direct-mapped cache in userspace.  The cache
maps those PC/instruction pairs to JIT'ed instruction sequences that
load or store using byte-wide load store intructions and then
synthesize 2-, 4- or 8-byte load or store results.  Once an
instruction has been seen to generate an unaligned access once,
subsequent hits on that instruction typically require overhead
of only around 50 cycles if cache and TLB is hot.

We support the prctl() PR_GET_UNALIGN / PR_SET_UNALIGN sys call to
enable or disable unaligned fixups on a per-process basis.

To do this we pull some of the tilepro unaligned support out of the
single_step.c file; tilepro uses instruction disassembly for both
single-step and unaligned access support.  Since tilegx actually has
hardware singlestep support, though, it's cleaner to keep the tilegx
unaligned access code in a separate file.  While we're at it,
properly rename the tilepro-specific types, etc., to have tilepro
suffixes instead of generic tile suffixes.

Chris Metcalf 77f8c740d1 tile: support "memmap" boot parameter
This change adds support for the "memmap" boot parameter similar
to what x86 provides.  The tile version supports "memmap=1G$5G",
for example, as a way to reserve a 1 GB range starting at PA 5GB.
The memory is reserved via bootmem during startup, and we create a
suitable "struct resource" marked as "Reserved" so you can see the
range reported by /proc/iomem.  Up to 64 such regions can currently
be reserved on the boot command line.

We do not support the x86 options "memmap=nn@ss" (force some memory
to be available at the given address) since it's pointless to try to
have Linux use memory the Tilera hypervisor hasn't given it.  We do
not support "memmap=nn#ss" to add an ACPI range for later processing,
since we don't support ACPI.  We do not support "memmap=exactmap"
since we don't support reading the e820 information from the BIOS
like x86 does.  I did add support for "memmap=nn" (and the synonym
"mem=nn") which cap the highest PA value at "nn"; these are both
just a synonym for the existing tile boot option "maxmem".

Chris Metcalf bda0f5bad8 tile: various console improvements
This change improves and cleans up the tile console.

- We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new
  Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI.  If IPI
  support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode.

- We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some
  of the other supporting earlyprintk code.

- A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to
  the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver.
  This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using
  simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly
  faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.

Chris Metcalf dc7d5cf2ca tile PCI RC: add dma_get_required_mask()
The standard kernel function dma_get_required_mask() uses the
highest DRAM address to determine if 32-bit or 64-bit DMA addressing
is needed.  This only works on architectures that have direct mapping
between the PA and the PCI address space, i.e. those that don't have
I/O TLBs or have I/O TLB but choose to use direct mapping.  Neither
of these are true for tilegx.  Whether to use 64-bit DMA should depend
on the PCI device's capability only, not on the amount of DRAM
installeds, so we now advertise a 64-bit DMA mask unconditionally.

Chris Metcalf 803c874abe tile: support LSI MEGARAID SAS HBA hybrid dma_ops
The LSI MEGARAID SAS HBA suffers from the problem where it can do
64-bit DMA to streaming buffers but not to consistent buffers.
In other words, 64-bit DMA is used for disk data transfers and 32-bit
DMA must be used for control message transfers. According to LSI,
the firmware is not fully functional yet. This change implements a
kind of hybrid dma_ops to support this.

Note that on most other platforms, the 64-bit DMA addressing space is the
same as the 32-bit DMA space and they overlap the physical memory space.
No special arrangement is needed to support this kind of mixed DMA
capability.  On TILE-Gx, the 64-bit DMA space is completely separate
from the 32-bit DMA space.  Due to the use of the IOMMU, the 64-bit DMA
space doesn't overlap the physical memory space.  On the other hand,
the 32-bit DMA space overlaps the physical memory space under 4GB.
The separate address spaces make it necessary to have separate dma_ops.

Now, this uses SLUB pretty much unmodified, but as it is the -rt kernel
with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT set, spinlocks are mutexes, although they do
disable migration. But the SLUB code is relatively lockless, and the
spin_locks there are raw_spin_locks (not converted to mutexes), thus I
believe this bug can happen in mainline without -rt features. The -rt
patch is just good at triggering mainline bugs ;-)

Anyway, looking at where this crashed, it seems that the page variable
can be NULL when passed to the node_match() function (which does not
check if it is NULL). When this happens we get the above panic.

As page is only used in slab_alloc() to check if the node matches, if
it's NULL I'm assuming that we can say it doesn't and call the
__slab_alloc() code. Is this a correct assumption?

Linus Torvalds 41d9884c44 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull more vfs stuff from Al Viro:
 "O_TMPFILE ABI changes, Oleg's fput() series, misc cleanups, including
  making simple_lookup() usable for filesystems with non-NULL s_d_op,
  which allows us to get rid of quite a bit of ugliness"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  sunrpc: now we can just set ->s_d_op
  cgroup: we can use simple_lookup() now
  efivarfs: we can use simple_lookup() now
  make simple_lookup() usable for filesystems that set ->s_d_op
  configfs: don't open-code d_alloc_name()
  __rpc_lookup_create_exclusive: pass string instead of qstr
  rpc_create_*_dir: don't bother with qstr
  llist: llist_add() can use llist_add_batch()
  llist: fix/simplify llist_add() and llist_add_batch()
  fput: turn "list_head delayed_fput_list" into llist_head
  fs/file_table.c:fput(): add comment
  Safer ABI for O_TMPFILE
