commit 93ea02bb84354370e51de803a9405f171f3edf88 upstream.

We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.

Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.

There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

commit 77d6273e79e3a86552fcf10cdd31a69b46ed2ce6 upstream.

call12 can't be safely used as the first call in the inline function,
because the compiler does not extend the stack frame of the bounding
function accordingly, which may result in corruption of local variables.

If a call needs to be done, do call8 first followed by call12.

For pure assembly code in _switch_to increase stack frame size of the
bounding function.

<title>xtensa: provide __NR_sync_file_range2 instead of __NR_sync_file_range</title>

commit 01e84c70fe40c8111f960987bcf7f931842e6d07 upstream.

xtensa actually uses sync_file_range2 implementation, so it should
define __NR_sync_file_range2 as other architectures that use that
function. That fixes userspace interface (that apparently never worked)
and avoids special-casing xtensa in libc implementations.
See the thread ending at
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/uclibc/2015-February/048833.html
for more details.

commit 2651cc6974d47fc43bef1cd8cd26966e4f5ba306 upstream.

Userspace actually passes single parameter (path name) to the umount
syscall, so new umount just fails. Fix it by requesting old umount
syscall implementation and re-wiring umount to it.

<title>xtensa: fix TLBTEMP_BASE_2 region handling in fast_second_level_miss</title>

commit 7128039fe2dd3d59da9e4ffa036f3aaa3ba87b9f upstream.

Current definition of TLBTEMP_BASE_2 is always 32K above the
TLBTEMP_BASE_1, whereas fast_second_level_miss handler for the TLBTEMP
region analyzes virtual address bit (PAGE_SHIFT + DCACHE_ALIAS_ORDER)
to determine TLBTEMP region where the fault happened. The size of the
TLBTEMP region is also checked incorrectly: not 64K, but twice data
cache way size (whicht may as well be less than the instruction cache
way size).

Fix TLBTEMP_BASE_2 to be TLBTEMP_BASE_1 + data cache way size.
Provide TLBTEMP_SIZE that is a greater of doubled data cache way size or
the instruction cache way size, and use it to determine if the second
level TLB miss occured in the TLBTEMP region.

Practical occurence of page faults in the TLBTEMP area is extremely
rare, this code can be tested by deletion of all w[di]tlb instructions
in the tlbtemp_mapping region.

commit 52247123749cc3cbc30168b33ad8c69515c96d23 upstream.

With SMP and a lot of debug options enabled task_struct::thread gets out
of reach of s32i/l32i instructions with base pointing at task_struct,
breaking build with the following messages:

  arch/xtensa/kernel/entry.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/xtensa/kernel/entry.S:1002: Error: operand 3 of 'l32i.n' has invalid value '1048'
  arch/xtensa/kernel/entry.S:1831: Error: operand 3 of 's32i.n' has invalid value '1040'
  arch/xtensa/kernel/entry.S:1832: Error: operand 3 of 's32i.n' has invalid value '1044'

Change base to point to task_struct::thread in such cases.
Don't use a10 in _switch_to to save/restore prev pointer as a2 is not
clobbered.

commit f61bf8e7d19e0a3456a7a9ed97c399e4353698dc upstream.

This fixes userspace code that builds on other architectures but fails
on xtensa due to references to structures that other architectures don't
refer to. E.g. this fixes the following issue with python-2.7.8:

  python-2.7.8/Modules/termios.c:861:25: error: invalid application
     of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct serial_multiport_struct'
     {"TIOCSERGETMULTI", TIOCSERGETMULTI},
  python-2.7.8/Modules/termios.c:870:25: error: invalid application
     of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct serial_multiport_struct'
     {"TIOCSERSETMULTI", TIOCSERSETMULTI},
  python-2.7.8/Modules/termios.c:900:24: error: invalid application
     of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct tty_struct'

commit e2fd1374c705abe4661df3fb6fadb3879c7c1846 upstream.

Most in-kernel users want registers spilled on the kernel stack and
don't require PS.EXCM to be set. That means that they don't need fixup
routine and could reuse regular window overflow mechanism for that,
which makes spill routine very simple.

Commits 925f5532 (xtensa: ccount based clockevent implementation) and e3f43291
(xtensa: ccount based sched_clock) introduced users of ccount_freq. This
variable doesn't exist when CONFIG_XTENSA_CALIBRATE_CCOUNT is disabled. Add
ccount_freq definition in this case.
