a84fac75f3 [ARM] wire up sys_accept4() on ARM
sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated
to include it.  The number and types of parameters is such that
no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4()
just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in
the syscall entry table.

a85f67d5e7 [ARM] 5613/1: implement CALLER_ADDRESSx
From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>

As __builtin_return_address(n) doesn't work for ARM with n > 0, the
kernel needs its own implementation.

This fixes many warnings saying:

	warning: unsupported argument to '__builtin_return_address'

The new methods and walk_stackframe must not be instrumented because
CALLER_ADDRESSx is used in the various tracers and tracing the tracer is
a bad idea.

What's currently missing is an implementation using unwind tables.  This
is not fatal though, it's just that the tracers don't get enough
information to be really useful.

Note that if both ARM_UNWIND and FRAME_POINTER are enabled,
walk_stackframe uses unwind information.  So in this case the same
implementation is used as when FRAME_POINTER is disabled.

bce56e48c2 Allow PHYS_OFFSET to be runtime determined
This bases on work done earlier by Lennert Buytenhek and Mark A. Greer.
Compared to their approach zreladdr isn't guessed based on the pc
register but the bootloader is expected to pass PHYS_OFFSET in r3.  If
that value doesn't look right (e.g. isn't aligned) it is guessed based
on the value of sp.  This should work for CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM, too.

To use it for your machine removing the definition of PHYS_OFFSET from
<mach/memory.h> and selecting CONFIG_RUNTIME_PHYS_OFFSET should be
enough.

d451564 broke ARM by requiring KM_IRQ_PTE, KM_NMI and KM_NMI_PTE to

dde5828f56 ARM: Fix broken highmem support
Currently, highmem is selectable, and you can request an increased
vmalloc area.  However, none of this has any effect on the memory
layout since a patch in the highmem series was accidentally dropped.
Moreover, even if you did want highmem, all memory would still be
registered as lowmem, possibly resulting in overflow of the available
virtual mapping space.

The highmem boundary is determined by the highest allowed beginning
of the vmalloc area, which depends on its configurable minimum size
(see commit 60296c71f6 for details on
this).

We should create mappings and initialize bootmem only for low memory,
while the zone allocator must still be told about highmem.

Currently, memory nodes which are completely located in high memory
are not supported.  This is not a huge limitation since systems
relying on highmem support are unlikely to have discontiguous memory
with large holes.

[ A similar patch was meant to be merged before commit 5f0fbf9eca
  and be available  in Linux v2.6.30, however some git rebase screw-up
  of mine dropped the first commit of the series, and that goofage
  escaped testing somehow as well. -- Nico ]

9e1b32caa5 mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()
mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()

Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture
will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when
freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works.

Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole
virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE
page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry
RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct
entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted,
we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions.

The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks
too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and
almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the
argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

c31ae4bb4a asm-generic: introduce asm/bitsperlong.h
This provides a reliable way for asm-generic/types.h and other
files to find out if it is running on a 32 or 64 bit platform.

We cannot use CONFIG_64BIT for this in headers that are included
from user space because CONFIG symbols are not available there.
We also cannot do it inside of asm/types.h because some headers
need the word size but cannot include types.h.

The solution is to introduce a new header <asm/bitsperlong.h>
that defines both __BITS_PER_LONG for user space and
BITS_PER_LONG for usage in the kernel. The asm-generic
version falls back to 32 bit unless the architecture overrides
it, which I did for all 64 bit platforms.

broadcasting in hardware so that the software can avoid the costly IPIs.
This patch adds the necessary checks (the MMFR3 CPUID register) to avoid
the broadcasting if already supported by the hardware.

(this patch is based on the work done by Tony Thompson @ ARM)

a1f98849fd [ARM] allow for alternative __copy_to_user/__clear_user implementations
This allows for optional alternative implementations of __copy_to_user
and __clear_user, with a possible runtime fallback to the standard
version when the alternative provides no gain over that standard
version. This is done by making the standard __copy_to_user into a weak
alias for the symbol __copy_to_user_std.  Same thing for __clear_user.

Those two functions are particularly good candidates to have alternative
implementations for, since they rely on the STRT instruction which has
lower performances than STM instructions on some CPU cores such as
the ARM1176 and Marvell Feroceon.

c3dc5bec05 flat: fix data sections alignment
The flat loader uses an architecture's flat_stack_align() to align the
stack but assumes word-alignment is enough for the data sections.

However, on the Xtensa S6000 we have registers up to 128bit width
which can be used from userspace and therefor need userspace stack and
data-section alignment of at least this size.

This patch drops flat_stack_align() and uses the same alignment that
is required for slab caches, ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN, or wordsize if it's
not defined by the architecture.

It also fixes m32r which was obviously kaput, aligning an
uninitialized stack entry instead of the stack pointer.
