592913ecb8 time: Kill off CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME
Now that all arches have been converted over to use generic time via
clocksources or arch_gettimeoffset(), we can remove the GENERIC_TIME
config option and simplify the generic code.

0299b1371d sparc: convert to arch_gettimeoffset()
This patch converts sparc (specifically sparc32) to use GENERIC_TIME via
the arch_getoffset() infrastructure, reducing the amount of arch
specific code we need to maintain.

The sparc architecture is one of the last 3 arches that need to be
converted.

This patch applies on top of Linus' current -git tree

I've taken my best swing at converting this, but I'm not 100% confident
I got it right. My cross-compiler is now out of date (gcc4.2) so I
wasn't able to check if it compiled. Any assistance from arch
maintainers or testers to get this merged would be great.

906010b213 perf_event: Provide vmalloc() based mmap() backing
Some architectures such as Sparc, ARM and MIPS (basically
everything with flush_dcache_page()) need to deal with dcache
aliases by carefully placing pages in both kernel and user maps.

These architectures typically have to use vmalloc_user() for this.

However, on other architectures, vmalloc() is not needed and has
the downsides of being more restricted and slower than regular
allocations.

a70c691376 sparc64: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to
the embedding allocator.  The next patch will make the embedding
allocator check distances between units to determine whether it fits
within the vmalloc area so that this fallback can be used on such
cases.

sparc64 currently has relatively small vmalloc area which makes it
impossible to create any dynamic chunks on certain configurations
leading to percpu allocation failures.  This and the next patch should
allow those configurations to keep working until proper solution is
found.

While at it, mark pcpu_cpu_distance() with __init.

cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

bcb2107fdb sparc64: use embedding percpu first chunk allocator
sparc64 currently allocates a large page for each cpu and partially
remap them into vmalloc area much like what lpage first chunk
allocator did.  As a 4M page is used for each cpu, this results in
very large unit size and also adds TLB pressure due to the double
mapping of pages in the first chunk.

This patch converts sparc64 to use the embedding percpu first chunk
allocator which now knows how to handle NUMA configurations.  This
simplifies the code a lot, doesn't incur any extra TLB pressure and
results in better utilization of address space.

Now SPARC32 uses two dma_map_ops structures for pci and sbus so
there is not much dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/dma.c.
kernel/ioport.c also includes dma stuff for SPARC32. So let's
put all the dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/ioport.c and make
kernel/dma.c common for SPARC32 and SPARC64.

e74e396204 percpu: use dynamic percpu allocator as the default percpu allocator
This patch makes most !CONFIG_HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA archs use
dynamic percpu allocator.  The first chunk is allocated using
embedding helper and 8k is reserved for modules.  This ensures that
the new allocator behaves almost identically to the original allocator
as long as static percpu variables are concerned, so it shouldn't
introduce much breakage.

s390 and alpha use custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() to work around addressing
range limit the addressing model imposes.  Unfortunately, this breaks
if the address is specified using a variable, so for now, the two
archs aren't converted.

The following architectures are affected by this change.

* sh
* arm
* cris
* mips
* sparc(32)
* blackfin
* avr32
* parisc (broken, under investigation)
* m32r
* powerpc(32)

As this change makes the dynamic allocator the default one,
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA is replaced with its invert -
CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA, which is added to yet-to-be converted
archs.  These archs implement their own setup_per_cpu_areas() and the
conversion is not trivial.

* powerpc(64)
* sparc(64)
* ia64
* alpha
* s390

Boot and batch alloc/free tests on x86_32 with debug code (x86_32
doesn't use default first chunk initialization).  Compile tested on
sparc(32), powerpc(32), arm and alpha.

Kyle McMartin reported that this change breaks parisc.  The problem is
still under investigation and he is okay with pushing this patch
forward and fixing parisc later.

[ Impact: use dynamic allocator for most archs w/o custom percpu setup ]

6a11f75b6a generic debug pagealloc
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is now supported by x86, powerpc, sparc64, and
s390.  This patch implements it for the rest of the architectures by
filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and
verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages().

This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but
invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and
invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.

761b602620 sparc: Use 64BIT config entry
Use 64BIT config entry to distinguish between 32 and 64bit builds
instead of relying on the ARCH setting.  Using sparc64 as ARCH still
forces 64BIT on.

Inspired by the x86 and s390 configs.

There is no need to define a config symbol if

GENERIC_GPIO looks like it is similar but
it is set using select in some other file so

5bc0530893 sparc: move select of ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI
It is counter intuitive to have the select listed
as part of the PCI option.
Move the select to the SPARC64 specific part of the config.

PCI_MSI has a dependency on PCI so it does not harm to have
it always selected.

7e7e93a228 sparc: Always set AUDIT_ARCH, not just on sparc64.
Without fancy makefile rules it's not straightforward
to prevent both arch/sparc/kernel/audit.o and lib/audit.o
from both being used on sparc32.

Since arch/sparc/kernel/audit.c is identical to lib/audit.c
except some CONFIG_COMPAT protected sections of code, just
use it on sparc32 too as that's the simplest way to fix
this.

o introduced a few Kconfig helpers to simplify Makefile logic
o refactored Makefile to prepare for unification
  - use obj-$(CONFIG_SPARC32) for sparc32 specific files
  - use <name>_$(BITS) for files where sparc64 has a _64 variant
  - sparc64 directly include a few files where sparc32 builds them,
    refer to these files directly (no BITS)

5e53879008 sparc,sparc64: unify Makefile
To unify Makefile for sparc and sparc64 a few other steps was needed:
1) separate defconfig files for sparc and sparc64 is required,
   so locate these in arch/sparc/configs
2) removoval of hack in toplevel Makefile to deal with that
   headers was in a separate directory compared to the rest

The unification of the Makefile required usage of several

    foo-$(CONFIG_SPARCnn) +=

due to a few directories pending unification.
This will be cleaned up when we unify the remaining directories.

Included in this patch are the deletion of a few files in
sparc64 as they are no longer needed: Makefile + Kconfig.
arch/sparc64/ will after this patch is applied only
have four directories (prom, lib, kernel, boot)

c6afec5e4d sparc: Include drivers/pcmcia/Kconfig
Stephen Rothwell pointed out that pcmcia can't be enabled on sparc64.

There is an empty non-prompt PCMCIA explicit entry in
arch/sparc/Kconfig but that doesn't do anything.

32-bit sparc needs a small hack to make this work, since it doesn't
use the generic IRQ layer yes.  We have to provide a dummy definition
of probe_irq_mask(), since this is used by the yenta socket driver.

- visual inspection in menuconfig
- result of allnoconfig, allmodconfig, allyesconfig was checked before and after
- result of a number of randconfig was checked before and after

scripts/diffconfig was used to check if the config differed before and after

The validity of the test was checked by on purpose introducing

dc52ddc0e6 container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem
This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.

It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:

	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
		the freezer.state file
	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
		and returns EIO)
	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.
