NR_PAGEFLAGS specifies the number of page flags we are using. From that we
can calculate the number of bits leftover that can be used for zone, node (and
maybe the sections id). There is no need anymore for FLAGS_RESERVED if we use
NR_PAGEFLAGS.Use the new methods to make NR_PAGEFLAGS available via the preprocessor.
NR_PAGEFLAGS is used to calculate field boundaries in the page flags fields.
These field widths have to be available to the preprocessor.Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter

This fixes a regression added by
238468b2ac76020c192a7402c92df5097916bf4a ("[SPARC64]: Use trap type
stored in pt_regs to handle syscall restart.")Because we now encode the "returning from syscall" status in the
pt_regs area, we have to be mindful to zap it out in the child
of a fork.During a parallel kernel build I saw an accidental -EINTR return
from vfork() in 'make' because of this bug.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

If we use this from more than one place, it's better to
have helpers instead of twiddling magic constants all
over.Add pt_regs_trap_type(), pt_regs_clear_trap_type(), and
pt_regs_is_syscall().Use them in do_signal().

Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc
Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match
that of SunOS.By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland
for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's
needs.Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style
signal frame layout in there. The detection mechanism is that we had
sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate
"new style signal frames please".Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff. In
fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever
had such binaries to be honest.So let's get rid of this stuff.
I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit
applications are passing in that negative signal number still.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

I must have disabled this due to other bugs which were fixed over

It's completely superfluous, CONFIG_COMPAT is sufficient.
What this used to be is an umbrella for enabling code shared
by all 32-bit compat binary support types. But with the
removal of SunOS and Solaris support, the only one left is
Linux 32-bit ELF.Update defconfig.

Refer to chip as "SPARC" throughout.
Say 32-bit SPARC and 64-bit SPARC rather than mentioning specific
chips such like UltraSPARC, as appropriate.Remove non-sense help text referring to things that will never appear
on a SPARC system, such as EISA busses etc.Use "help" instead of "--help--"

Kernel bugzilla 10273
As reported by Jos van der Ende, ever since commit
5a606b72a4309a656cd1a19ad137dc5557c4b8ea ("[SPARC64]: Do not ACK an
INO if it is disabled or inprogress.") sun4u interrupts
can get stuck.What this changset did was add the following conditional to
the various IRQ chip ->enable() handlers on sparc64:if (unlikely(desc->status & (IRQ_DISABLED|IRQ_INPROGRESS)))
return;which is correct, however it means that special care is needed
in the ->enable() method.Specifically we must put the interrupt into IDLE state during
an enable, or else it might never be sent out again.Setting the INO interrupt state to IDLE resets the state machine,
the interrupt input to the INO is retested by the hardware, and
if an interrupt is being signalled by the device, the INO
moves back into TRANSMIT state, and an interrupt vector is sent
to the cpu.The two sun4v IRQ chip handlers were already doing this properly,
only sun4u got it wrong.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Otherwise all sorts of bad things can happen, including
spurious softlockup reports.Other platforms have this same bug, in one form or
another, just don't see the issue because they
don't sleep as long as sparc64 can in NOHZ.Thanks to some brilliant debugging by Peter Zijlstra.

Now that we have a magic cookie in the pt_regs, we can
properly detect trap frames in stack bactraces.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
-
Now that we indicate the "restart system call" in the
trap type field of pt_regs->magic, we don't need to
set the %l6 boolean in all of the trap return paths.And we therefore don't need to pass it to do_notify_resume().

Now that we can check the trap type directly, we don't need the
funny restart_syscall indication from the trap return paths.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
-
This sets us up for several simplifications and facilities:
1) The magic cookie lets us identify trap frames more
accurately in stack backtraces.2) The trap type lets us simplify all of the "are we in
a syscall" state management and checks.3) We can now see if a task off the cpu is sleeping in
a system call or not. In fact, we can see what
trap it is sleeping in whatever the type. The utrace
guys will use this.Based upon some discussions with Roland McGrath.

1) ptrace should pass 'current' to task_user_regset_view()
2) When fetching general registers using a 64-bit view, and
the target is 32-bit, we have to convert.3) Skip the whole register window get/set code block if
the user isn't asking to access anything in there.Otherwise we have problems if the user doesn't have
an address space setup. Fetching ptrace register is
still valid at such a time, and ptrace does not try
to access the register window area of the regset.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
