<title>xtensa: always use correct stack pointer for stack traces</title>

Commit '28a0ce7 xtensa: use correct stack pointer for stack traces'
changed the stack tracer from always reading the stack pointer
register to always using the saved value in the task descriptor.

The author was too dense to consider the fact that the saved stack
value is stale for a running process und thus unusable for 'current'.

What we do now is to use the stack pointer register (a1) for when the
task is unknown - we can't help it then - or when the task is
'current'.  For everything else use the saved stack pointer value
contained in the task descriptor.

Right now, the xtensa stacktrace code reads the _current_ kernel stack
pointer if nothing is supplied.  With debugging facilities like sysrq
this means that the backtrace of the sysrq-handler is printed instead
of a trace of the given task's stack.

When no stack pointer is specified in show_trace() and show_stack(),
use the stack pointer that comes with the handed in task descriptor to
make stack traces more useful.

<title>[XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessors</title>
<updated>2008-02-14T01:41:43+00:00</updated>

<id>c658eac628aa8df040dfe614556d95e6da3a9ffb</id>
<content type='text'>
The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and
registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only
accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows
to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers
needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch
or during interrupt handling.

This patch adds support for these additional states:

- save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon
  interrupt entry and exit.
- context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor
- 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor
- ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers
- update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf

Remove additional registers from the ELF gregset structure that
are only used by the kernel or are not required or invalid in
user-space. The ar registers are always aligned to a windowbase
value of 0, and the WB register is always assumed to be 0.
Increase the size of the structure to 128 entries. This will
provide enough space in future.
