This patch will fix the arguments to the architecture sys_clone() function to
match the asm-generic/syscalls.h prototype. In the same go remove the
architecture specific prototype for the same function.
The sys_clone() function is only called from assembly, hence the argument types
were not having any affect.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:
arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.
Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

Mark arguments to certain system calls as being const where they should be but
aren't. The list includes:
(*) The filename arguments of various stat syscalls, execve(), various utimes
syscalls and some mount syscalls.
(*) The filename arguments of some syscall helpers relating to the above.
(*) The buffer argument of various write syscalls.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:
scheduler switch to idle task
enable interrupts
Window starts here
----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
irq_exit() stops the tick
----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)
return from schedule()
cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();
Window ends here
The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.
The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.
Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.
cpu_idle()
{
preempt_disable();
while(1) {
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
are in the idle loop
while (!need_resched())
halt();
tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
preempt_enable_no_resched();
schedule();
preempt_disable();
}
}
In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ...
/me grabs a large brown paperbag.

Iff the parent has TIF_DEBUG set, _and_ clone_flags includes
CLONE_PTRACE we should set the TIF_DEBUG flag for the child and
increment the ocd refcount. Otherwise, the TIF_DEBUG flag must be
unset.
Currently, the child inherits TIF_DEBUG from the parent before
copy_thread is called, so TIF_DEBUG may be already be set before we
determine whether the child is supposed to inherit debugging
capabilities from the parent or not. This means that ocd_enable()
won't increment the refcount, because TIF_DEBUG is already set, and
that TIF_DEBUG will be set for processes that aren't being debugged.
This leads to a refcounting asymmetry, which may show up as
------------[ cut here ]------------
Badness at arch/avr32/kernel/ocd.c:73
PC is at ocd_disable+0x34/0x60
LR is at put_lock_stats+0xa/0x20
as reported by David Brownell. Happens when strace'ing a process that
forks a new child process, e.g. "strace mount -tjffs2 mtd1 /mnt", and
subsequently killing the child process (e.g. "umount /mnt".)

This fixes a hang on boot with nohz enabled. nohz is not actually
supported in mainline yet, but patches that add support for it are
currently under review.
When nohz is compiled out, the functions are no-ops, so this patch
results in no functional change, but it arguably makes the code more
correct.

Keep track of processes being debugged (including the kernel itself)
and turn the OCD system on and off as appropriate. Since enabling
debugging turns off some optimizations in the CPU core, this fixes the
issue that enabling KProbes support or simply running a program under
gdbserver will reduce system performance significantly until the next
reboot.
The CPU performance will still be reduced for all processes while a
process is being debugged, but this is a lot better than reducing the
performance forever.

Generate a new set of OCD register definitions in asm/ocd.h and rename
__mfdr() and __mtdr() to ocd_read() and ocd_write() respectively.
The bitfield definitions are a lot more complete now, and they are
entirely based on bit numbers, not masks. This is because OCD
registers are frequently accessed from assembly code, where bit
numbers are a lot more useful (can be fed directly to sbr, bfins,
etc.)
Bitfields that consist of more than one bit have two definitions:
_START, which indicates the number of the first bit, and _SIZE, which
indicates the number of bits. These directly correspond to the
parameters taken by the bfextu, bfexts and bfins instructions.

* Use generic BUG() handling
* Remove some useless debug statements
* Use a common function _exception() to send signals or oops when
an exception can't be handled. This makes sure init doesn't
enter an infinite exception loop as well. Borrowed from powerpc.
* Add some basic exception tracing support to the page fault code.
* Rework dump_stack(), show_regs() and friends and move everything
into process.c
* Print information about configuration options and chip type when

This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.
AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
consumption and high code density. The AVR32 architecture is not binary
compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.
The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf
The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture. It
features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
Memory Management Unit. It also comes with a large set of integrated
peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
Atmel.
Full data sheet is available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf
while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf
Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918
including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
booting from SD card.
Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
environment for avr32-linux.
This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
