      nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus · 6727ad9e
      Chris Metcalf authored 
      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.

      nmi_backtrace: do a local dump_stack() instead of a self-NMI · 67766489
      Chris Metcalf authored 
      Currently on arm there is code that checks whether it should call
dump_stack() explicitly, to avoid trying to raise an NMI when the
current context is not preemptible by the backtrace IPI.  Similarly, the
forthcoming arch/tile support uses an IPI mechanism that does not
support generating an NMI to self.

Accordingly, move the code that guards this case into the generic
mechanism, and invoke it unconditionally whenever we want a backtrace of
the current cpu.  It seems plausible that in all cases, dump_stack()
will generate better information than generating a stack from the NMI
handler.  The register state will be missing, but that state is likely
not particularly helpful in any case.

Or, if we think it is helpful, we should be capturing and emitting the
current register state in all cases when regs == NULL is passed to
nmi_cpu_backtrace().

      nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods · 9a01c3ed
      Chris Metcalf authored 
      Patch series "improvements to the nmi_backtrace code" v9.

This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based remote
backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few small
improvements along the way.

The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu is
about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to see both
where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation of where the
cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace framework allows us
to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm, mips, and sparc64.  For x86 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm, mips, and sparc I just build-tested it
and made sure the generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle
section, but I didn't attempt to figure out which the platform-specific
idle routines might be.  That might be more usefully done by someone
with platform experience in follow-up patches.

This patch (of 4):

Currently you can only request a backtrace of either all cpus, or all
cpus but yourself.  It can also be helpful to request a remote backtrace
of a single cpu, and since we want that, the logical extension is to
support a cpumask as the underlying primitive.

This change modifies the existing lib/nmi_backtrace.c code to take a
cpumask as its basic primitive, and modifies the linux/nmi.h code to use
the new "cpumask" method instead.

The existing clients of nmi_backtrace (arm and x86) are converted to
using the new cpumask approach in this change.

The other users of the backtracing API (sparc64 and mips) are converted
to use the cpumask approach rather than the all/allbutself approach.
The mips code ignored the "include_self" boolean but with this change it
will now also dump a local backtrace if requested.

      atomic64: no need for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE · 51a02124
      Vineet Gupta authored 
      This came to light when implementing native 64-bit atomics for ARCv2.

The atomic64 self-test code uses CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE
to check whether atomic64_dec_if_positive() is available.  It seems it
was needed when not every arch defined it.  However as of current code
the Kconfig option seems needless

 - for CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 it is auto-enabled in lib/Kconfig and a
   generic definition of API is present lib/atomic64.c
 - arches with native 64-bit atomics select it in arch/*/Kconfig and
   define the API in their headers

So I see no point in keeping the Kconfig option

Compile tested for:
 - blackfin (CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
 - x86 (!CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
 - ia64

      ARM: fix delays · fb833b1f
      Russell King authored 
      Commit 215e362d ("ARM: 8306/1: loop_udelay: remove bogomips value
limitation") tried to increase the bogomips limitation, but in doing
so messed up udelay such that it always gives about a 5% error in the
delay, even if we use a timer.

The calculation is:

	loops = UDELAY_MULT * us_delay * ticks_per_jiffy >> UDELAY_SHIFT

Originally, UDELAY_MULT was ((UL(2199023) * HZ) >> 11) and UDELAY_SHIFT
30.  Assuming HZ=100, us_delay of 1000 and ticks_per_jiffy of 1660000
(eg, 166MHz timer, 1ms delay) this would calculate:

	((UL(2199023) * HZ) >> 11) * 1000 * 1660000 >> 30
		=> 165999

With the new values of 2047 * HZ + 483648 * HZ / 1000000 and 31, we get:

	(2047 * HZ + 483648 * HZ / 1000000) * 1000 * 1660000 >> 31
		=> 158269

which is incorrect.  This is due to a typo - correcting it gives:

	(2147 * HZ + 483648 * HZ / 1000000) * 1000 * 1660000 >> 31
		=> 165999

i.o.w, the original value.

Fixes: 215e362d

      ARM: dts: lpc32xx: add device node for IRAM on-chip memory · 8185041f
      Vladimir Zapolskiy authored 
      

The change adds a new device node with description of generic SRAM
on-chip memory found on NXP LPC32xx SoC series and connected to AHB
matrix slave port 3.

Note that NXP LPC3220 SoC has 128KiB of SRAM memory, the other
LPC3230, LPC3240 and LPC3250 SoCs all have 256KiB SRAM space,
in the shared DTSI file this change specifies 128KiB SRAM size.

Also it's worth to mention that the SRAM area contains of 64KiB banks,
2 banks on LPC3220 and 4 banks on the other SoCs from the series, and
all SRAM banks but the first one have independent power controls,
the description of this feature will be added with the introduction of
power domains for the SoC series.

      ARM: 8618/1: decompressor: reset ttbcr fields to use TTBR0 on ARMv7 · 117e5e9c
      Srinivas Ramana authored 
      If the bootloader uses the long descriptor format and jumps to
kernel decompressor code, TTBCR may not be in a right state.
Before enabling the MMU, it is required to clear the TTBCR.PD0
field to use TTBR0 for translation table walks.

The commit dbece458 ("ARM: 7501/1: decompressor:
reset ttbcr for VMSA ARMv7 cores") does the reset of TTBCR.N, but
doesn't consider all the bits for the size of TTBCR.N.

Clear TTBCR.PD0 field and reset all the three bits of TTBCR.N to
indicate the use of TTBR0 and the correct base address width.

Fixes: dbece458
