resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and

Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:
"A few new features this merge-window. The most important one is
probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
dma_mapping_error by the device driver. This requires minor changes
to some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these
changes have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor
the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a
hardware erratum.The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The
conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is
deleted in the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so
solve the conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in
the common clock framework migration. A missing hunk from the patch
in the IOMMU tree will be submitted as a seperate patch when the
merge-window is closed."* tag 'iommu-updates-v3.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu: (29 commits)

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: (113 commits)

most of it on the tooling side.
Main changes:
* ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.
* uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
Nesterov.* UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
transition* Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri

Olsa.* Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
maps, from Namhyung Kim* Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim
* Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
from Jiri Olsa* Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
buckets for all the entries in all the hists. This new method is
now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.* libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
really pointed to real bugs.* Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
report and annotate browsers. It does filtering to find the
scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used. From
Feng Tang* perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
Andrew Vagin.* Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.
* Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.
* Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
existing threads when we start a tool like trace.* Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
tglx's original "trace" tool.* Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'
* Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.
* There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
not possible, from Borislav Petkov.* Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
Ahern.* Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.* Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc. From
Jiri Olsa.* Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g. Android,
from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.* Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large

The current rules have the .dtb files build in a different directory
from the .dts files. This patch changes c6x to use the generic dtb
rule which builds .dtb files in the same directory as the source .dts.This requires moving parts of arch/c6x/boot/Makefile into newly created
arch/c6x/boot/dts/Makefile, and updating arch/c6x/Makefile to call the
new Makefile. linked_dtb.S is also moved into boot/dts/ since it's used
by rules that were moved.Acked-by: Mark Salter

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large

Pull UAPI disintegration fixes from David Howells:
"There are three main parts:(1) I found I needed some more fixups in the wake of testing Arm64
(some asm/unistd.h files had weird guards that caused problems -
mostly in arches for which I don't have a compiler) and some
__KERNEL__ splitting needed to take place in Arm64.(2) I found that c6x was missing some __KERNEL__ guards in its
asm/signal.h. Mark Salter pointed me at a tree with a patch to
remove that file entirely and use the asm-generic variant instead.(3) Lastly, m68k turned out to have a header installation problem due
to it lacking a kvm_para.h file.The conditional installation bits for linux/kvm_para.h, linux/kvm.h
and linux/a.out.h weren't very well specified - and didn't work if
an arch didn't have the asm/ version of that file, but there *was*
an asm-generic/ version.It seems the "ifneq $((wildcard ...),)" for each of those three
headers in include/kernel/Kbuild is invoked twice during header
installation, and the second time it matches on the just installed
asm-generic/kvm_para.h file and thus incorrectly installs
linux/kvm_para.h as well.Most arches actually have an asm/kvm_para.h, so this wasn't
detectable in those."* 'uapi-prep' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers:

Historically, the top three bytes of personality have been used for
things such as ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE, which made sense only for specific
architectures.We now however have a flag there that is general no matter the
architecture (UNAME26); generally we have to be careful to preserve the
personality flags across exec().This patch tries to fix all architectures that forcefully overwrite
personality flags during exec() (ppc32 and s390 have been fixed recently
by commits f9783ec862ea ("[S390] Do not clobber personality flags on
exec") and 59e4c3a2fe9c ("powerpc/32: Don't clobber personality flags on

Avoid later problems with c6x's asm/signal.h lacking __KERNEL__ guards.
Signed-off-by: David Howells

The c6x signal.h includes the asm-generic version and provides
a couple of extern declarations. David Howells pointed out that
the externs needed to be protected by ifdef __KERNEL__. As it
turns out, the externs aren't really needed since the functions
are only called from asm code. So this patch gets rid of the
c6x signal.h and uses just the asm-generic version.Signed-off-by: Mark Salter

asm-generic/unistd.h and a number of asm/unistd.h files have been given
reinclusion guards that allow the guard to be overridden if __SYSCALL is
defined. Unfortunately, these files define __SYSCALL and don't undefine it
when they've finished with it, thus rendering the guard ineffective.The reason for this override is to allow the file to be #included multiple
times with different settings on __SYSCALL for purposes like generating syscall

remove these guards entirely.Signed-off-by: David Howells

C6X had no defconfig, so DSK6455 is as good as any.

Make default just return 0. The current default (checking
TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG) is taken to architectures that need it;
ones that don't do polling in their idle threads don't need
to defined TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG at all.ia64 defined both TS_POLLING (used by its tsk_is_polling())
and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG (not used at all). Killed the latter...Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.Signed-off-by: David Howells

A recent patch in the linux-next tree caused a build failure on
C6X because C6X didn't define a read_barrier_depends() macro. C6X
does not support SMP and the architecture doesn't provide any
special memory ordering instructions, so it makes sense to just
use the generic barrier.h rather than patching the existing c6x
specific header.Signed-off-by: Mark Salter
