Enter kernel debugger at boot with:
--hvd UART_1=1 --hvx kgdbwait --hvx kgdboc=ttyS1,115200
or at runtime with:
echo ttyS1,115200 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc
echo g > /proc/sysrq-triggerSigned-off-by: Chris Metcalf

The existing code relied on the hardware definition ()
to specify how much VA and PA space was available. It's convenient
to allow customizing this for some configurations, so provide symbols
MAX_PA_WIDTH and MAX_VA_WIDTH in that can be modified
if desired.Additionally, move away from the MEM_XX_INTRPT nomenclature to
define the start of various regions within the VA space. In fact
the cleaner symbol is, for example, MEM_SV_START, to indicate the
start of the area used for supervisor code; the actual address of the
interrupt vectors is not as important, and can be changed if desired.
As part of this change, convert from "intrpt1" nomenclature (which
built in the old privilege-level 1 model) to a simple "intrpt".Also strip out some tilepro-specific code supporting modifying the
PL the kernel could run at, since we don't actually support using
different PLs in tilepro, only tilegx.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

First, don't re-enable interrupts blindly in the Linux trap handler.
We already handle page faults this way; synchronous interrupts like
ILL_TRANS will fire even when interrupts are disabled, and we don't
want to re-enable interrupts in that case.For ILL_TRANS, we now pass the ILL_VA_PC reason into the trap handler
so we can report it properly; this is the address that caused the
illegal translation trap. We print the address as part of the
pr_alert() message now if it's coming from the kernel.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

If the kernel unexpectedly takes a bad trap, it's convenient to
have it report the type of trap as part of the error. This gives
customers a bit more context before they call up customer support.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

We now respond to MEM_ERROR traps (e.g. an atomic instruction to
non-cacheable memory) with a SIGBUS.We also no longer generate a console crash message if a user
process die due to a SIGTRAP.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

In certain circumstances we need to do a bunch of jump-and-link

Disintegrate asm/system.h for Tile.

The kernel code was using some headers that included a mix
of hardware-specific information (typically found in Tilera
headers) and structures, enums, and function declarations supporting
the disassembly function of the tile-desc.c sources.This change refactors that code so that a hardware-specific, but
OS- and application-agnostic header, is created: .
This header is then exported to userspace along with the other
headers and can be used to build userspace code; in particular,
it is used by glibc as part of implementing the backtrace() function.The new header, together with a header that specifically describes
the disassembly code ( with _32 and _64 variants),
replaces the old and
headers.As part of this change, we are also renaming the 32-bit constants
from TILE_xxx to TILEPRO_xxx to better reflect the fact that they
are specific to the TILEPro architecture, and not to TILE-Gx
and any successor "tile" architecture chips.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile.
Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line
printk whenever a user process crashes. By setting it to "2", we get
a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including
a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the
address of the crash.Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are
removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the
arch_coredump_signal function). We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter
which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This is not quite the complete support, since we're not yet shipping
intvec_64.S, but it is the support relevant to the set of files we are
currently shipping, and makes it easier to track changes between
our internal sources and our public GIT repository.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable
config switch. Pushing up this change avoids handling branch
merge issues going forward with the KVM work.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This functionality was stubbed out until recently. Now we support our
normal backtracing API on TILE-Gx as well as on TILE64/TILEPro.
This change includes a tweak to the instruction encoding caused by
adding addxli for compat mode.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease
apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:- sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
- sparse: Fix __user annotations.
- sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
- sparse: removing functions not actually used.
- checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
- checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
- checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
to this commit:- Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
- Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
- Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf
