commit feb92d7d3813456c11dce215b3421801a78a8986 upstream.

Current code inadventely bails if hardware supports sampling/overflow
interrupts, but the irq is missing from device tree.

|
| # perf stat -e cycles,instructions,major-faults,minor-faults ../hackbench
| Running with 10 groups 400 process
| Time: 0.921
|
| Performance counter stats for '../hackbench':
|
|   &lt;not supported&gt;      cycles
|   &lt;not supported&gt;      instructions
|                 0      major-faults
|              8679      minor-faults

This need not be as we can still do simple counting based perf stat.
This unborks perf on HSDK-4xD

<title>ARC: entry: fix potential EFA clobber when TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE</title>

commit 00fdec98d9881bf5173af09aebd353ab3b9ac729 upstream.

Trap handler for syscall tracing reads EFA (Exception Fault Address),
in case strace wants PC of trap instruction (EFA is not part of pt_regs
as of current code).

However this EFA read is racy as it happens after dropping to pure
kernel mode (re-enabling interrupts). A taken interrupt could
context-switch, trigger a different task's trap, clobbering EFA for this
execution context.

Fix this by reading EFA early, before re-enabling interrupts. A slight
side benefit is de-duplication of FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN in trap handler.
The trap handler is common to both ARCompact and ARCv2 builds too.

This just came out of code rework/review and no real problem was reported
but is clearly a potential problem specially for strace.

[ Upstream commit 43900edf67d7ef3ac8909854d75b8a1fba2d570c ]

As of today the ICCM and DCCM size checks are incorrectly using
mismatched units (KiB checked against bytes). The CONFIG_ARC_DCCM_SZ
and CONFIG_ARC_ICCM_SZ are in KiB, but the size calculated in
runtime and stored in cpu-&gt;dccm.sz and cpu-&gt;iccm.sz is in bytes.

Fix that.

<title>ARC: perf: Accommodate big-endian CPU</title>

<id>5effc09c4907901f0e71e68e5f2e14211d9a203f</id>

8-letter strings representing ARC perf events are stores in two
32-bit registers as ASCII characters like that: "IJMP", "IALL", "IJMPTAK" etc.

And the same order of bytes in the word is used regardless CPU endianness.

Which means in case of big-endian CPU core we need to swap bytes to get
the same order as if it was on little-endian CPU.

Otherwise we're seeing the following error message on boot:
-------------------------&gt;8----------------------
ARC perf        : 8 counters (32 bits), 40 conditions, [overflow IRQ support]
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/arc_pct/events/pmji'

---[ end trace a75fb9a9837bd1ec ]---
-------------------------&gt;8----------------------

What happens here we're trying to register more than one raw perf event
with the same name "PMJI". Why? Because ARC perf events are 4 to 8 letters
and encoded into two 32-bit words. In this particular case we deal with 2
events:
 * "IJMP____" which counts all jump &amp; branch instructions
 * "IJMPC___" which counts only conditional jumps &amp; branches

Those strings are split in two 32-bit words this way "IJMP" + "____" &amp;
"IJMP" + "C___" correspondingly. Now if we read them swapped due to CPU core
being big-endian then we read "PMJI" + "____" &amp; "PMJI" + "___C".

And since we interpret read array of ASCII letters as a null-terminated string
on big-endian CPU we end up with 2 events of the same name "PMJI".

This adds support for an optional extra interrupt cell to specify edge
vs level triggered. It is backward compatible with dts files with only
one cell, and will default to level-triggered in such a case.

Note that I had to make a change to idu_irq_set_affinity as well, as
this function was setting the interrupt type to "level" unconditionally,
since this was the only type supported previously.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
 "A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
  task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
  task.

  The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
  such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
  fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.

  Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
  force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
  abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
  have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.

  This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
  carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
  making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"
