2013-03-20ARC: Fix the typo in event identifier flags used by ptraceVineet Gupta1-1/+1
orig_r8_IS_EXCPN and orig_r8_IS_BRKPT were same values due to a copy/paste error. Although it looks bad and is wrong, it really doesn't affect gdb working. orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is the one relevant to debugging (breakpoints), since it is used to provide EFA vs. ERET to a ptrace "stop_pc" request. So when gdb has inserted a breakpoint, orig_r8_IS_BRKPT is already set, and anything else (i.e. orig_r8_IS_EXCPN) becoming same as it, really doesn't hurt gdb. The corollary case, could be nasty but nobody uses the ptrace "stop_pc" request in that case Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-03-11ARC: ABIv3: fork/vfork wrappers not needed in "no-legacy-syscall" ABIVineet Gupta1-25/+0
When switching to clone() only ABI - I missed out pruning the low level asm syscall wrappers Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-02-15ARC: Fix pt_orig_r8 accessVineet Gupta1-2/+2
Syscall restarting fixes made pt_regs->orig_r8 a short word, which was not reflected in the assembler code - thus could potentially break gdb debugging. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-02-15ARC: Support for single cycle Close Coupled Mem (CCM)Vineet Gupta1-2/+2
* Includes mapping of CCMs in address space * Annotations to move arbitrary code/data into CCM * Moving some of the critical code/data into CCM * Runtime detection/reporting Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
2013-02-15ARC: Unaligned access emulationVineet Gupta1-0/+13
ARC700 doesn't natively support unaligned access, but can be emulated -Unaligned Access Exception -Disassembly at the Fault address to find the exact insn (long/short) Also per Arnd's comment, we runtime control it using 2 sysctl knobs: * SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_ALLOW: Runtime enable/disble * SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_NO_WARN: Warn on each emulation attempt Originally contributed by Tim Yao <tim.yao@amlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Tim Yao <tim.yao@amlogic.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2013-02-15ARC: DWARF2 .debug_frame based stack unwinderVineet Gupta1-0/+9

2013-02-15ARC: SMP supportVineet Gupta1-0/+4
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions. ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This includes: -Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI) -Cache coherency -load-locked/store-conditional ... The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler prologues to keep them re-entrant. Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012). Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is addressed in subsequent patches within this series.

2013-02-15ARC: Support for high priority interrupts in the in-core intcVineet Gupta1-0/+117
There is a bit of hack/kludge right now where we disable preemption if a L2 (High prio) IRQ is taken while L1 (Low prio) is active. Need to revisit this Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

2013-02-15ARC: [Review] Preparing to fix incorrect syscall restarts due to signalsVineet Gupta1-2/+2
To avoid multiple syscall restarts (multiple signals) or no restart at all (sigreturn), we need just an extra bit of state "literally 1 bit" in struct pt_regs. orig_r8 is the best place to do this, however given the way it is encoded currently, we can't add anything simplistically. Current orig_r8: * syscalls -> 1 to NR_SYSCALLS * Exceptions -> NR_SYSCALLS + 1 * Break-point-> NR_SYSCALLS + 2 In new scheme it is a bit-field * lower short word contains the exact event type (and a new bit to represent restart semantics : if syscall was already / can't be restarted) * upper short word optionally containing the syscall num - needed by likes of tracehooks etc This patch only changes how orig_r8 is organised and nothing should change behaviourily.

2013-02-15ARC: Signal handlingVineet Gupta1-3/+8
Includes following fixes courtesy review by Al-Viro * Tracer poke to Callee-regs were lost Before going off into do_signal( ) we save the user-mode callee regs (as they are not saved by default as part of pt_regs). This is to make sure that that a Tracer (if tracing related signal) is able to do likes of PEEKUSR(callee-reg). However in return path we were simply discarding the user-mode callee regs, which would break a POKEUSR(callee-reg) from a tracer. * Issue related to multiple syscall restarts are addressed in next patch Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se>
