This ARM11 SMP configuration was one of the first SMP configurations
the ARM kernel supported, but it has the downside of odd DMA handling,
odd cache tagging, and often (as of recent) completely broken cache
handling on the ARM RealView PB11MPCore test chips. To boot the
platform it was necessary to completely disable the cache.
When it comes to the EB 11MPCore it is unclear if this ever worked.
These reference designs are now the only ARMv6K SMP platforms.
As only reference designs of purely academic interest remain, and
since the special-cased DMA and PMU code is hard to maintain and
doesn't really work, it is not really worth our time.
Delete the ARM11MPCore support along with:
- The special DMA quirk CONFIG_DMA_CACHE_RWFO that is only used
on ARMv6K SMP, and we are the last ARMV6K system leaving the
building and the cache handling is awkward, so good-bye.
- The special PMU handling that was only used by ARM11MPCore.
The following is left behind:
- TIMER_OF_DECLARE(arm_twd_11mp, "arm,arm11mp-twd-timer", ...)
in arch/arm/kernel/smp_twd.c, this is still in use by Marvell MMP3
arch/arm/boot/dts/marvell/mmp3.dtsi
- IRQCHIP_DECLARE(arm11mp_gic, "arm,arm11mp-gic", ...)
in drivers/irqchip/irq-gic.c, this is still in use by Marvell MMP3
arch/arm/boot/dts/marvell/mmp3.dtsi
- A compatible for the arm11mpcore SCU, since this was mistakedly
used for the Cortex-A9 version of RealView EB.
These are unfortunate but will need to be kept around for
compatibility. New Marvell-specific compatibles should however probably
be added.

ARMv8 is a superset of ARMv7, and all the ARMv8 features are
discoverable with a set of ID registers. It means that we can
use CPU_V7 to guard ARMv8 features at compile time.
This commit simply amends the CPU_V7 configuration symbol comment
to reflect that CPU_V7 also covers ARMv8.

Choosing big-endian vs little-endian kernels in Kconfig has not worked
correctly since the introduction of CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM a long
time ago.
The problems is that CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN depends on
ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN, which can set by any one platform
in the config, but would actually have to be supported by all
of them.
This was mostly ok for ARMv6/ARMv7 builds, since these are BE8 and
tend to just work aside from problems in nonportable device drivers.
For ARMv4/v5 machines, CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN and CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
were never set together, so this was disabled on all those machines
except for IXP4xx.
As IXP4xx can now become part of ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, it seems better to
formalize this logic: all ARMv4/v5 platforms get an explicit dependency
on being either big-endian (ixp4xx) or little-endian (the rest). We may
want to fix ixp4xx in the future to support both, but it does not work
in LE mode at the moment.
For the ARMv6/v7 platforms, there are two ways this could be handled
a) allow both modes only for platforms selecting
'ARCH_SUPPORTS_BIG_ENDIAN' today, but only LE mode for the
others, given that these were added intentionally at some
point.
b) allow both modes everwhere, given that it was already possible
to build that way by e.g. selecting ARCH_VIRT, and that the
list is not an accurate reflection of which platforms may or
may not work.
Out of these, I picked b) because it seemed slighly more logical
to me.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Updates for IRQ stacks and virtually mapped stack support, and ftrace:
- Support for IRQ and vmap'ed stacks
This covers all the work related to implementing IRQ stacks and
vmap'ed stacks for all 32-bit ARM systems that are currently
supported by the Linux kernel, including RiscPC and Footbridge. It
has been submitted for review in four different waves:
- IRQ stacks support for v7 SMP systems [0]
- vmap'ed stacks support for v7 SMP systems[1]
- extending support for both IRQ stacks and vmap'ed stacks for all
remaining configurations, including v6/v7 SMP multiplatform
kernels and uniprocessor configurations including v7-M [2]
- fixes and updates in [3]
- ftrace fixes and cleanups
Make all flavors of ftrace available on all builds, regardless of
ISA choice, unwinder choice or compiler [4]:
- use ADD not POP where possible
- fix a couple of Thumb2 related issues
- enable HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_FP_TEST for robustness
- enable the graph tracer with the EABI unwinder
- avoid clobbering frame pointer registers to make Clang happy
- Fixes for the above"

Permit the use of the TPIDRPRW system register for carrying the per-CPU
offset in generic SMP configurations that also target non-SMP capable
ARMv6 cores. This uses the SMP_ON_UP code patching framework to turn all
TPIDRPRW accesses into reads/writes of entry #0 in the __per_cpu_offset
array.
While at it, switch over some existing direct TPIDRPRW accesses in asm
code to invocations of a new helper that is patched in the same way when
necessary.
Note that CPU_V6+SMP without SMP_ON_UP results in a kernel that does not
boot on v6 CPUs without SMP extensions, so add this dependency to
Kconfig as well.

We can currently build a multi-cpu enabled kernel that allows both ARMv4
and ARMv5 CPUs, and also supports THUMB mode in user space.
However, returning to user space in this configuration with the usr_ret
macro requires the use of the 'bx' instruction, which is refused by
the assembler:
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:937: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:960: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S:1003: Error: selected processor does not support `bx lr' in ARM mode
<instantiation>:2:2: note: instruction requires: armv4t
bx lr
While it would be possible to handle this correctly in principle, doing so
seems to not be worth it, if we can simply avoid the problem by enforcing
that a kernel supporting both ARMv4 and a later CPU architecture cannot
run THUMB binaries.
This turned up while build-testing with clang; for some reason,
gcc never triggered the problem.

When configuring the kernel for big-endian, we set either BE-8 or BE-32
based on the CPU architecture level. Until linux-4.4, we did not have
any ARMv7-M platform allowing big-endian builds, but now i.MX/Vybrid
is in that category, adn we get a build error because of this:
arch/arm/kernel/module-plts.c: In function 'get_module_plt':
arch/arm/kernel/module-plts.c:60:46: error: implicit declaration of function '__opcode_to_mem_thumb32' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
This comes down to picking the wrong default, ARMv7-M uses BE8
like ARMv7-A does. Changing the default gets the kernel to compile
and presumably works.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"The main change this time around is a cleanup of some of the oldest
platforms based on the XScale and ARM9 CPU cores, which are between 10
and 20 years old.
The Kendin/Micrel/Microchip KS8695, Winbond/Nuvoton W90x900 and Intel
IOP33x/IOP13xx platforms are removed after we determined that nobody
is using them any more.
The TI Davinci and NXP LPC32xx platforms on the other hand are still
in active use and are converted to the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM build,
meaning that we can compile a kernel that works on these along with
most other ARMv5 platforms. Changes toward that goal are also merged
for IOP32x, but additional work is needed to complete this. Patches
for the remaining ARMv5 platforms have started but need more work and
some testing.
Support for the new ASpeed AST2600 gets added, this is based on the
Cortex-A7 ARMv7 core, and is a newer version of the existing ARMv5 and
ARMv6 chips in the same family.
Other changes include a cleanup of the ST-Ericsson ux500 platform and
the move of the TI Davinci platform to a new clocksource driver"
[ The changes had marked INTEL_IOP_ADMA and USB_LPC32XX as being
buildable on other platforms through COMPILE_TEST, but that causes new
warnings that I most definitely do not want to see during the merge
window as that could hide other issues.
So the COMPILE_TEST option got disabled for them again - Linus ]

This patch adds support for the Broadcom Brahma-B15 CPU readahead cache
controller. This cache controller sits between the L2 and the memory bus
and its purpose is to provide a friendler burst size towards the DDR
interface than the native cache line size.
The readahead cache is mostly transparent, except for
flush_kern_cache_all, which is precisely what we are overriding here.
The readahead cache only intercepts reads, and does invalidate on
writes (IOW), as such, some data can remain stale in any of its buffers, such
that we need to flush it, which is an operation that needs to happen in
a particular order:
- disable the readahead cache
- flush it
- call the appropriate cache-v7.S function
- re-enable
This patch tries to minimize the impact to the cache-v7.S file by only
providing a stub in case CONFIG_CACHE_B15_RAC is enabled (default for

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Now, we have dedicated non-cacheable region for consistent DMA
operations. However, that region can still be marked as bufferable by
MPU, so it'd be safer to have barriers by default. M-class machines
that didn't need it until now also likely won't need it in the future,
therefore, we offer this as an option.

David Mosberger reports random segfaults and other problems when running
his buildroot userspace. It turns out that his kernel did not have
support for Thumb userspace, nor did his application, but glibc made use
of Thumb instructions in glibc.
The kernel Thumb support option already recommends being enabled, and
is also so biased, but clearly this is not enough of a recommendation.
So, hide this behind CONFIG_EXPERT as well, and include a note to
indicate the potential issues if it's turned off and userspace Thumb
mode is made use of.

Clean up arch/arm/mm/Kconfig a little to provide a symbol which
indicates whether the CPU may support the Thumb instruction set. This
gets rid of the growing dependencies on ARM_THUMB, and also gives us a
useful Kconfig symbol for choosing the kuser code.

The UniPhier outer cache (arch/arm/mm/cache-uniphier.c) has 128 byte
line length and its tags are also managed per 128 byte line. This
is very unfortunate, but the current 64 byte alignment for kmalloc()
causes sharing problems on DMA if used with this outer cache.
This commit adds ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT_7 to increase the DMA minimum
alignment to 128 byte if CACHE_UNIPHIER is enabled. There are
several drivers that assume aligning to L1_CACHE_BYTES will be DMA
safe, so this commit also changes the L1_CACHE_BYTES for safety.
Having said that, I hesitate to align all the other SoCs in Multi
platform to the UniPhier's requirement. So, I am disabling the
CONFIG_CACHE_UNIPHIER by default, so that multi_v7_defconfig will
still stay with CONFIG_ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=6. With this commit,
UniPhier SoCs will become slower, but it is much better than system
crash. If desired, the outer-cache can be enabled by merge_config
or something.
Note:
The UniPhier PH1-Pro5 SoC is equipped also with L3 cache with 256
byte line size but its tags are managed per 128 byte sub-line.
So, ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT_7 should be fine for all the UniPhier SoCs.

The L2C-220 (AKA L220) and L2C-310 (AKA PL310) cache controllers feature
a Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU), which can be useful for tuning
and/or debugging. This hardware is always present and the relevant
registers are accessible to non-secure accesses. Thus, no special
firmware interface is necessary.
This patch adds support for the PMU, plugging into the usual perf
infrastructure. The overflow interrupt is not always available (e.g. on
RealView PBX A9 it is not wired up at all), and the hardware counters
saturate, so the driver does not make use of this. Instead, the driver
periodically polls and reset counters as required to avoid losing
events due to saturation.

The binary GCD algorithm is based on the following facts:
1. If a and b are all evens, then gcd(a,b) = 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
2. If a is even and b is odd, then gcd(a,b) = gcd(a/2, b)
3. If a and b are all odds, then gcd(a,b) = gcd((a-b)/2, b) = gcd((a+b)/2, b)
Even on x86 machines with reasonable division hardware, the binary
algorithm runs about 25% faster (80% the execution time) than the
division-based Euclidian algorithm.
On platforms like Alpha and ARMv6 where division is a function call to
emulation code, it's even more significant.
There are two variants of the code here, depending on whether a fast
__ffs (find least significant set bit) instruction is available. This
allows the unpredictable branches in the bit-at-a-time shifting loop to
be eliminated.
If fast __ffs is not available, the "even/odd" GCD variant is used.

However, this combination is useless, as XIP_KERNEL implies that all the

CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA (which depends on the other) are not
needed with XIP_KERNEL, and this patches enforces that using a Kconfig

The use of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is generally seen as an essential part of
kernel self-protection:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2015/11/30/13
Additionally, its name has grown to mean things beyond just rodata. To
get ARM closer to this, we ought to rearrange the names of the configs
that control how the kernel protects its memory. What was called
CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS is realy doing the work that other architectures
call CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.
This redefines CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to actually do the bulk of the
ROing (and NXing). In the place of the old CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, use
CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA, since that's what the option does: adds
section alignment for making rodata explicitly NX, as arm does not split
the page tables like arm64 does without _ALIGN_RODATA.
Also adds human readable names to the sections so I could more easily
debug my typos, and makes CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA default "y" for CPU_V7.
Results in /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables for each config state:
# CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set

Now that realview and integrator always select the correct CPU
type themselves based on the core tiles, there is no need to
still have them user-visible in arch/arm/mm/Kconfig. The
ARM925T symbol has been selected by the only user for many
years, so that can be removed along with the realview and
integrator specific ones.
This also solves randconfig build problems on realview.

Commit 42c4dafe803dca ("ARM: 6202/1: Do not ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE
on RealView boards with L210/L220") changed the generic setting for
ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE to be disabled on any Realview kernel that includes
support for any of the ARM11 variations. Doing this was required to
allow doing DMA without a lockup in the l2x0 cache controller on the
Realview platform.
Unfortunately, in a kernel that also contains support for any ARMv7
based machine, the same change makes it impossible to do DMA on ARMv7,
which gets in the way of enabling multiplatform support on Realview.
As confirmed by Catalin Marinas and Linus Walleij, the current
code for Realview that we have in the kernel does not actually
perform any DMA, and this is unlikely to change in the future.
Therefore we can revert 42c4dafe803dca without introducing regressions,
but we must never start using DMA on this platform in the future.

This commit adds support for UniPhier outer cache controller.
All the UniPhier SoCs are equipped with the L2 cache, while the L3
cache is currently only integrated on PH1-Pro5 SoC.
