<title>powerpc: re-initialise lazy FPU/VEC counters on every fault</title>

<id>b2b46304e9360f3dda49c9d8ba4a1478b9eecf1d</id>
<content type='text'>
When a FP/VEC/VSX unavailable fault loads registers and enables the
facility in the MSR, re-set the lazy restore counters to 1 rather
than incrementing them so every fault gets the same number of
restores before the next fault.

This probably shouldn't be a practical change because if a lazy counter
was non-zero then it should have been restored and would not cause a
fault when userspace tries to access it. However the code and comment
implies otherwise so that's misleading and unnecessary.

The replacement of &lt;asm/pgrable.h&gt; with &lt;linux/pgtable.h&gt; made the include
of the latter in the middle of asm includes.  Fix this up with the aid of
the below script and manual adjustments here and there.

	moved = False
	in_hdrs = False

	with open(sys.argv[1], "r") as f:

The include/linux/pgtable.h is going to be the home of generic page table
manipulation functions.

Start with moving asm-generic/pgtable.h to include/linux/pgtable.h and
make the latter include asm/pgtable.h.

A few changes to retrieve DAR and DSISR from struct regs
instead of retrieving them directly, as they may have
changed due to a TLB miss.

Also modifies hash_page() and friends to work with virtual
data addresses instead of physical ones. Same on load_up_fpu()
and load_up_altivec().

<title>powerpc/64: Don't trace code that runs with the soft irq mask unreconciled</title>

<content type='text'>
"Reconciling" in terms of interrupt handling, is to bring the soft irq
mask state in to synch with the hardware, after an interrupt causes
MSR[EE] to be cleared (while the soft mask may be enabled, and hard
irqs not marked disabled).

General kernel code should not be called while unreconciled, because
local_irq_disable, etc. manipulations can cause surprising irq traces,
and it's fragile because the soft irq code does not really expect to
be called in this situation.

When exiting from an interrupt, MSR[EE] is cleared to prevent races,
but soft irq state is enabled for the returned-to context, so this is
now an unreconciled state. restore_math is called in this state, and
that can be ftraced, and the ftrace subsystem disables local irqs.

Mark restore_math and its callees as notrace. Restore a sanity check
in the soft irq code that had to be disabled for this case, by commit
4da1f79227ad4 ("powerpc/64: Disable irq restore warning for now").

"Reconciling" in terms of interrupt handling, is to bring the soft irq
mask state in to synch with the hardware, after an interrupt causes
MSR[EE] to be cleared (while the soft mask may be enabled, and hard
irqs not marked disabled).

General kernel code should not be called while unreconciled, because
local_irq_disable, etc. manipulations can cause surprising irq traces,
and it's fragile because the soft irq code does not really expect to
be called in this situation.

When exiting from an interrupt, MSR[EE] is cleared to prevent races,
but soft irq state is enabled for the returned-to context, so this is
now an unreconciled state. restore_math is called in this state, and
that can be ftraced, and the ftrace subsystem disables local irqs.

4da1f79227ad4 ("powerpc/64: Disable irq restore warning for now").

This patch moves ASM_CONST() and stringify_in_c() into
dedicated asm-const.h, then cleans all related inclusions.

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:

 - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.

   This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
   checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
   working on a patch to fix this.

   Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
   change prototypes.

 - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
   Piggin

 - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.

 - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
   -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections

 - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell

 - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (22 commits)
  initramfs: Escape colons in depfile
  ppc: there is no clear_pages to export
  powerpc/64: whitelist unresolved modversions CRCs
  kbuild: -ffunction-sections fix for archs with conflicting sections
  kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile
  kbuild: allow archs to select link dead code/data elimination
  kbuild: allow architectures to use thin archives instead of ld -r
  kbuild: Regenerate genksyms lexer
  kbuild: genksyms fix for typeof handling
  fixdep: faster CONFIG_ search
  ia64: move exports to definitions
  sparc32: debride memcpy.S a bit
  [sparc] unify 32bit and 64bit string.h
  sparc: move exports to definitions
  ppc: move exports to definitions
  arm: move exports to definitions
  s390: move exports to definitions
  m68k: move exports to definitions
  alpha: move exports to actual definitions
  x86: move exports to actual definitions
