Commit d065bd810b6deb67d4897a14bfe21f8eb526ba99
(mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer) and
commit 37b23e0525d393d48a7d59f870b3bc061a30ccdb
(x86,mm: make pagefault killable)
The above commits introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler
for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable.
These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial
during OOM killer invocation.
Port these changes to parisc.

1) PTRACE_SYSCALL doesn't work for 64bit process on parisc64.
Compat syscall table is used instead of 64bit one. IMO we should either
refuse to allow PTRACE_SYSCALL for 64bit processes or duplicate the
logics choosing the right syscall table into .Ltracesys.
2) if you have let the tracee run with PTRACE_SYSCALL and
it had stopped, you can use PTRACE_POKEUSR to modify syscall number
(r20) and arguments 1--4 (r26--r23). Modifications will have effect.
However, modifying arguments 5 and 6 (r22 and r21 resp.) works only
when process (32bit one) runs on 64bit host - on 32bit one it has no
effect. AFAICS, the diff below should fix that one.

People are playing odd games with IRQF_DISABLED, remove it.
Its not reliable, since shared interrupt lines could disable it for you,
and its possible and allowed for archs to disable IRQs to limit IRQ nesting.
Therefore, simply mandate that _ALL_ IRQ handlers are run with IRQs disabled.
[ This _should_ not break anything, since we've mandated that IRQ handlers
_must_ be able to deal with this for a _long_ time ]
IRQ handlers should be fast, no if buts and any other exceptions. We also have
plenty instrumentation to find any offending IRQ latency sources.

CONFIG_PARISC_TMPALIAS enables clear_user_highpage and copy_user_highpage.
These are essentially alternative implementations of clear_user_page and
copy_user_page. They don't have anything to do with x86 high pages, but they
build on the infrastructure to save a few instructions. Read the comment in
clear_user_highpage as it is very important to the implementation. For this
reason, there isn't any gain in using the TMPALIAS/highpage approach.

flush_cache_mm, for the non current case also uses flush_dcache_page_asm
and flush_icache_page_asm which are TMPALIAS flushes.
For the non current case, the algorithm used by get_ptep is derived from the
vmalloc_to_page implementation in vmalloc.c. It is essentially a generic page
table lookup. The other alternative was to duplicate the lookup in entry.S.
The break point for switching to a full cache flush is somewhat arbitrary. The
same approach is used in flush_cache_range for non current case. In a GCC
build and check, many small programs are executed and this change provided a
significant performance enhancement, e.g. GCC build time was cut almost in half
on a rp3440 at j4. Previously, we always flushed the entire cache.

Implement clear_page_asm and copy_page_asm. These are optimized routines to
clear and copy a page. I tested prefetch optimizations in clear_page_asm and
copy_page_asm but didn't see any significant performance improvement on rp3440.
I'm not sure if these are routines are significantly faster than memset and/or
memcpy, but they are there for further performance evaluation.
TLB purge operations on PA 1.X SMP machines are now serialized with the help of
the new tlb_lock() and tlb_unlock() macros, since on some PA-RISC machines, TLB
purges need to be serialized in software. Obviously, lock isn't needed in UP
kernels. On PA 2.0 machines, there is a local TLB instruction which is much
less disruptive to the memory subsystem. No lock is needed for local purge.
Loops are also unrolled in flush_instruction_cache_local and
flush_data_cache_local.
The implementation of what used to be copy_user_page (now copy_user_page_asm)
is now fixed. Additionally 64-bit support is now added. Read the preceding
comment which I didn't change. I left the comment but it is now inaccurate.

This is the first patch in a series of 4, with which the page cache flushing of
parisc will gets fixed and enhanced. This even fixes the nasty "minifail" bug
(http://wiki.parisc-linux.org/TestCases?highlight=%28minifail%29) which
prevented parisc to stay an official debian port. Basically the flush in
copy_user_page together with the TLB patch from commit
7139bc1579901b53db7e898789e916ee2fb52d78 is what fixes the minifail bug.
This patch still uses the TMPALIAS approach. The new copy_user_page
implementation calls flush_dcache_page_asm to flush the user dcache page
(crucial for minifail fix) via a kernel TMPALIAS mapping. After that, it just
copies the page using the kernel mapping. It does a final flush if needed.
Generally it is hard to avoid doing some cache flushes using the kernel mapping
(e.g., copy_to_user_page and copy_from_user_page).
This patch depends on a subsequent change to pacache.S implementing
clear_page_asm and copy_page_asm. These are optimized routines to clear and
copy a page. The calls in clear_user_page and copy_user_page could be replaced
by calls to memset and memcpy, respectively. I tested prefetch optimizations
in clear_page_asm and copy_page_asm but didn't see any significant performance
improvement on rp3440. I'm not sure if these are routines are significantly
faster than memset and/or memcpy, but they are there for further performance
evaluation.

When building a 64bit kernel which includes all necessary drivers and
filesystems the vmlinux kernel often gets so huge, that the linker won't
be able to resolve the branch stubs. This patch overcomes this limit by

Pull irq core changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest changes are the IRQ-work and printk changes from Frederic
Weisbecker, which prepare the code for 'full dynticks' (the ability to
stop or slow down the periodic tick arbitrarily, not just in idle time
as today):
- Don't stop tick with irq works pending. This fix is generally
useful and concerns archs that can't raise self IPIs.
- Flush irq works before CPU offlining.
- Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the next tick to be
executed, unless it's stopped.
- Implement klogd wake up using irq work. This removes the ad-hoc
printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu() hooks and make it working even in
dynticks mode.
- Cleanups and fixes."

it significantly improves the stability of SMP machines such as

The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.
The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.

While a privileged program can open a raw socket, attach some
restrictive filter and drop its privileges (or send the socket to an
unprivileged program through some Unix socket), the filter can still
be removed or modified by the unprivileged program. This commit adds a
socket option to lock the filter (SO_LOCK_FILTER) preventing any
modification of a socket filter program.
This is similar to OpenBSD BIOCLOCK ioctl on bpf sockets, except even
root is not allowed change/drop the filter.
The state of the lock can be read with getsockopt(). No error is
triggered if the state is not changed. -EPERM is returned when a user
tries to remove the lock or to change/remove the filter while the lock
is active. The check is done directly in sk_attach_filter() and
sk_detach_filter() and does not affect only setsockopt() syscall.

Various GCC tests use gdb to simulate a multithreaded application. Many of
these tests have been failing on parisc linux.
GCC does this by using gdb to single-step the application, then gdb is used to
call other test specific code. Where this fails is when the application is
stepped into the delay slot of a taken branch. This sets the PSW B bit. When
the test specific code is executed, this usually clears the PSW B bit.
Currently, gdb is not allowed to set the B bit. So, the code falls through what
should be a taken branch.
The attached patch adds the PSW B bit to the set of bits that gdb is allowed to
set. In order to set the B bit, the trace system call must return using an
interrupt restore. The patch also modifies this code to use the saved IAOQ
values when they are saved by a ptrace syscall or interruption.

The attached change fixes a float conversion problem found running the
GCC testsuite with GCC configured with --with-arch=2.0.
The actual problem occurs for an exponent value of 63. This is the
maximum exponent value that can be passed. This causes a left shift by
32 in the else hunk of the macro. This causes undefined behavior and the
wrong value is returned for dresultB. The fix is the check "exponent <=
62". If the exponent is 63, dresultB is set to 0. The patch also
optimizes the operation a bit by copying "Sall(sgl_value) <<
SGL_EXP_LENGTH" to val, so that sgl_value is not modified.

Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"sigaltstack infrastructure + conversion for x86, alpha and um,
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE infrastructure.
Note that there are several conflicts between "unify
SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions" and UAPI patches in mainline;
resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and
SS_DISABLED from arch/*/uapi/asm/signal.h; they are all identical and
include/uapi/linux/signal.h contains the unified variant."
Fixed up conflicts as per Al.
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
alpha: switch to generic sigaltstack
new helpers: __save_altstack/__compat_save_altstack, switch x86 and um to those
generic compat_sys_sigaltstack()
introduce generic sys_sigaltstack(), switch x86 and um to it
new helper: compat_user_stack_pointer()
new helper: restore_altstack()
unify SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions
new helper: current_user_stack_pointer()
missing user_stack_pointer() instances
Bury the conditionals from kernel_thread/kernel_execve series
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE: infrastructure
