6727ad9e20 nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus
When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.

be7635e728 arch, ftrace: for KASAN put hard/soft IRQ entries into separate sections
KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler.
This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the
number of unique stack traces needed to be stored.

Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the
users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>.  Also introduce the
__softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the
corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

0415b00d17 percpu: Always align percpu output section to PAGE_SIZE
Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the
percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel
addresses should be aligned accordingly.  The calculation of the
former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel
image.

The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to
define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter.
Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking
percpu memory alignment.

This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to
PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE.  While at it,
add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are
reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added
in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching
there.

For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area.  As the area
is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference.

This problem was discovered by David Howells while debugging boot
failure on mn10300.

c6345ab1a3 Blackfin: SMP: work around anomaly 05000491
In order to safely work around anomaly 05000491, we have to execute IFLUSH
from L1 instruction sram.  The trouble with multi-core systems is that all
L1 sram is visible only to the active core.  So we can't just place the
functions into L1 and call it directly.  We need to setup a jump table and
place the entry point in external memory.  This will call the right func
based on the active core.

In the process, convert from the manual relocation of a small bit of code
into Core B's L1 to the more general framework we already have in place
for loading arbitrary pieces of code into L1.

0afc272cc6 Blackfin: fix relocation errors with large initramfs images
Since we are now discarding .exit.text at runtime instead of link time, we
need to place all .text sections ahead of the .data sections.  Otherwise,
a really large attached initramfs may cause link errors as it pushes the
PC relative relocations behind the limits of the Blackfin ISA (~16meg).
The instructions in the .exit.text are unable to call back into the .text
sections leading to a link failure.

9e1b9b8072 module: make MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX into a CONFIG option
The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
.tmp_exports-asm.S.  Currently it is mixed in with C structure
definitions in "asm/module.h".  Move the definition of this arch option
into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.

This also lets modpost.c use the same definition.  Previously modpost
relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.

A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
showed the generated code was unchanged.  vmlinux was identical save
for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
symbol in the kallsyms data).

It also removes:

 - file names (you are looking at the file)
 - bug url (it's in the ./MAINTAINERS file)
 - "or later" on GPL-2, when we did not have that right

It also allows some Blackfin-specific assembly files to be under a BSD

and:

least builds fine after fixing what appears to be typos in those

023bf6f1b8 linker script: unify usage of discard definition
Discarded sections in different archs share some commonality but have
considerable differences.  This led to linker script for each arch
implementing its own /DISCARD/ definition, which makes maintaining
tedious and adding new entries error-prone.

This patch makes all linker scripts to move discard definitions to the
end of the linker script and use the common DISCARDS macro.  As ld
uses the first matching section definition, archs can include default
discarded sections by including them earlier in the linker script.

ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific
subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final
image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion.

defconfig compile tested for x86, x86-64, powerpc, powerpc64, ia64,
alpha, sparc, sparc64 and s390.  Michal Simek tested microblaze.

6f985294f7 Blackfin arch: fix bugs in linker script when using upstream binutils
Fix a few problems I discovered when building a kernel with upstream CVS
binutils.

We have to add the NOTES macro to our linker script, since a kernel
built with --build-id is otherwise unable to boot.  Last time NOTES was
added, it broke things, but the definition of the macro has changed not
to rely on parts of the linker script that aren't present on Blackfin.

I also noticed that _l2_lma_start does not point into the kernel image,
but rather somewhere in L1/L2 space, which seems unintended.  Also, when
the L2 section was added to the linker script, the part following it which
computes then length of the init section was not updated.

binutils to complain about "missing phdr".  Currently the only other arch
that uses NOTES is i386, and the patch which added it also added
PHDRS {
	text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5);	/* R_E */
	data PT_LOAD FLAGS(7);	/* RWE */
	note PT_NOTE FLAGS(0);	/* ___ */
}
and a few other modifications to use ":text" and ":data" to the linker

b7627acc43 [Blackfin] arch: move the init sections to the end of memory
Move the init sections to the end of memory so that after they
are free, run time memory is all continugous - this should help decrease
memory fragementation.

When doing this, we also pack some of the other sections a little closer
together, to make sure we don't waste memory. To make this happen,
we need to rename the .data.init_task section to .init_task.data, so
it doesn't get picked up by the linker script glob.

0fa63ad7d1 Blackfin arch: fix bug which unaligns the init thread's stack and causes the current macro to fail.
switch to using proper defines this time (THREAD_SIZE and PAGE_SIZE)
instead of just PAGE_SIZE everywhere

de6a9520d4 Blackfin arch: redo our linker script a bit
- we can start taking advantages of defines in asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h
 - move our L1 relocated sections into init so it gets freed after relocation

1394f03221 blackfin architecture
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix!  Tinyboards.

The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc.  (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000.  Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices.  The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set.  It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.

The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc

This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel
