This patch introduces a new default FIQ handler that is structured in a
similar way to the existing ARM exception handler and result in the FIQ
being handled by C code running on the SVC stack (despite this code run
in the FIQ handler is subject to severe limitations with respect to
locking making normal interaction with the kernel impossible).
This default handler allows concepts that on x86 would be handled using
NMIs to be realized on ARM.

This patch is a near complete re-write of a patch originally
provided by Anton Vorontsov. Today only a couple of small fragments
survive, however without Anton's work to build from this patch would
not exist. Thanks also to Russell King for spoonfeeding me a variety
of fixes during the review cycle.

ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
to return from function calls. Recent CPUs perform better when the
"bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).
We provide a new macro "ret" with all its variants for the condition
code which will resolve to the appropriate instruction.
Rather than doing this piecemeal, and miss some instances, change all
the "mov pc" instances to use the new macro, with the exception of
the "movs" instruction and the kprobes code. This allows us to detect
the "mov pc, lr" case and fix it up - and also gives us the possibility
of deploying this for other registers depending on the CPU selection.

We will reach fixup handler when one thread(say cpu0) caused an undefined exception, while another thread(say cpu1) is unmmaping the page.
Fixup handler returns to the next userspace instruction which has caused the undef execption, rather than going to the same instruction.
ARM ARM says that after undefined exception, the PC will be pointing
to the next instruction. ie +4 offset in case of ARM and +2 in case of Thumb
And there is no correction offset passed to vector_stub in case of
undef exception.
File: arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S +1085
vector_stub und, UND_MODE
During an undefined exception, in normal scenario(ie when ldrt
instruction does not cause an abort) after resorting the context in
VFP hardware, the PC is modified as show below before jumping to
ret_from_exception which is in r9.
File: arch/arm/vfp/vfphw.S +169
@ The context stored in the VFP hardware is up to date with this thread
vfp_hw_state_valid:
tst r1, #FPEXC_EX
bne process_exception @ might as well handle the pending
@ exception before retrying branch
@ out before setting an FPEXC that
@ stops us reading stuff
VFPFMXR FPEXC, r1 @ Restore FPEXC last
sub r2, r2, #4 @ Retry current instruction - if Thumb
str r2, [sp, #S_PC] @ mode it's two 16-bit instructions,
@ else it's one 32-bit instruction, so
@ always subtract 4 from the following
@ instruction address.
But if ldrt results in an abort, we reach the fixup handler and return
to ret_from_execption without correcting the pc.
This patch modifes the fixup handler to re-execute the same instruction which caused undefined execption.

The Undef abort handler in the kernel reads the undefined instruction
from user space. If the page table was modified from another CPU, the
user access could fail and do_page_fault() will be executed with
interrupts disabled. This can potentially deadlock on ARM11MPCore or on
Cortex-A15 with erratum 798181 workaround enabled (both implying IPI for
TLB maintenance with page table lock held).
This patch enables the IRQs in __und_usr before attempting to read the
instruction from user space.

image, it needs to byteswap half word thumb2 encoded instructions
before further processing them.
Without this fix BE image user-land thread executing first VFP

does not recognize instruction and does not enable VFP.

The exception handling code fails to clear the IT state, potentially
leading to incorrect execution of the fixup if the size of the IT
block is more than one.
Let fixup_exception do the IT sanitizing if a fixup has been found,
and restore CPSR from the stack when returning from a data abort.

to be removed from the vector page, thereby preventing their use with
ROP (return orientated programming) attacks. This option is only

Move the machine vector stubs into the page above the vector page,

the reset stub, and place the swi vector at a location that the
'ldr' can get to it.
This hides pointers into the kernel which could give valuable
information to attackers, and reduces the number of exploitable

Since commit 6a1c53124aa1 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to
prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks.
There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT,
Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have
the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW.
This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it.
Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW
can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we
modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read
TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

commit 91d1aa43 (context_tracking: New context tracking susbsystem)
generalized parts of the RCU userspace extended quiescent state into
the context tracking subsystem. Context tracking is then used
to implement adaptive tickless (a.k.a extended nohz)
To support the new context tracking subsystem on ARM, the user/kernel
boundary transtions need to be instrumented.
For exceptions and IRQs in usermode, the existing usr_entry macro is
used to instrument the user->kernel transition. For the return to
usermode path, the ret_to_user* path is instrumented. Using the
usr_entry macro, this covers interrupts in userspace, data abort and
prefetch abort exceptions in userspace as well as undefined exceptions
in userspace (which is where FP emulation and VFP are handled.)
For syscalls, the slow return path is covered by instrumenting the
ret_to_user path. In addition, the syscall entry point is
instrumented which covers the user->kernel transition for both fast
and slow syscalls, and an additional instrumentation point is added
for the fast syscall return path (ret_fast_syscall).

While trying to get a v3.5 kernel booted on the cubox, I noticed that
VFP does not work correctly with VFP bounce handling. This is because
of the confusion over 16-bit vs 32-bit instructions, and where PC is
supposed to point to.
The rule is that FP handlers are entered with regs->ARM_pc pointing at
the _next_ instruction to be executed. However, if the exception is
not handled, regs->ARM_pc points at the faulting instruction.
This is easy for ARM mode, because we know that the next instruction and
previous instructions are separated by four bytes. This is not true of
Thumb2 though.
Since all FP instructions are 32-bit in Thumb2, it makes things easy.
We just need to select the appropriate adjustment. Do this by moving
the adjustment out of do_undefinstr() into the assembly code, as only
the assembly code knows whether it's dealing with a 32-bit or 16-bit
instruction.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

Even when CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER is selected, the core code
requires the arch_irq_handler_default macro to be defined as

It turns out nobody is using that particular feature as both PXA

the interrupt handler, leaving unused code (or empty macros) in
their entry-macro.S file just to be able to compile entry-armv.S.
Make CONFIG_MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER exclusive wrt arch_irq_handler_default,
which allows to remove one test from the hot path. Also cleanup both

As we no longer re-enable interrupts in these exception handlers, add
the irqsoff tracing calls to them so that the kernel tracks the state
more accurately.
Note that these calls are conditional on IRQSOFF_TRACER:
kernel ----------> user ---------> kernel
^ irqs enabled ^ irqs disabled
No kernel code can run on the local CPU until we've re-entered the
kernel through one of the exception handlers - and userspace can not
take any locks etc. So, the kernel doesn't care about the IRQ mask
state while userspace is running unless we're doing IRQ off latency
tracing. So, we can (and do) avoid the overhead of updating the IRQ
mask state on every kernel->user and user->kernel transition.

Add irqtrace function calls to the undefined exception handler, so
that we get sane lockdep traces from locking problems in undefined
exception handlers.
