The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a
local implementation to the global one provide by
kernel/watchdog.c. This shift has caused a whole bunch of
compile problems under different config options. I attempt to
simplify things with the patch below.
In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the
meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. Basically they mean the same thing,
the former on a local level and the latter on a global level.
With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on
defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't
make sense any more. x86 will now use the global
implementation.
The changes below do a few things. First it changes the few
places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter
anyway, so nothing unusual here). Those pieces of code were
relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog
functionality, so the change should make sense.
Second, I removed the x86 implementation of
touch_nmi_watchdog(). It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely
on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation.
Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from
x86. And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to
look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This
changes removes some of the ugliness in that file.
Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. You can
only have one nmi_watchdog.
Tested with
ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken
configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig,
(various broken configs)
Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken
emails. :-)
v3:
changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function
prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc. However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle. But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)
This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix. It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

When we allocate address space, e.g., to assign it to a PCI device, don't
allocate anything mentioned in the BIOS E820 memory map.
On recent machines (2008 and newer), we assign PCI resources from the
windows described by the ACPI PCI host bridge _CRS. On many Dell
machines, these windows overlap some E820 reserved areas, e.g.,
BIOS-e820: 00000000bfe4dc00 - 00000000c0000000 (reserved)
pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0xbff00000-0xdfffffff]
If we put devices at 0xbff00000, they don't work, probably because
that's really RAM, not I/O memory. This patch prevents that by removing
the 0xbfe4dc00-0xbfffffff area from the "available" resource.
I'm not very happy with this solution because Windows solves the problem
differently (it seems to ignore E820 reserved areas and it allocates
top-down instead of bottom-up; details at comment 45 of the bugzilla
below). That means we're vulnerable to BIOS defects that Windows would not
trip over. For example, if BIOS described a device in ACPI but didn't
mention it in E820, Windows would work fine but Linux would fail.

This implements arch_remove_reservations() so allocate_resource() can
avoid any arch-specific reserved areas. This currently just avoids the
BIOS area (the first 1MB), but could be used for E820 reserved areas if
that turns out to be necessary.
We previously avoided this area in pcibios_align_resource(). This patch
moves the test from that PCI-specific path to a generic path, so *all*
resource allocations will avoid this area.

Fix interrupt priority level handling on SH-Mobile ARM.
SH-Mobile ARM platforms using multiple interrupt priority
levels need this patch to fix a potential dead lock that
may occur if multiple interrupts with different levels
are pending simultaneously.
The default INTC configuration is to use the same priority
level for all interrupts, so this issue does not trigger by
default. It is however common for board code to override the
interrupt priority for certain interrupt sources depending
on the application. Without this fix such boards may lock up.
In detail, this patch updates the INTC code in entry-macro.S
to make sure that the INTLVLA register gets set as expected.
To trigger this bug modify the board specific code to adjust
the interrupt priority level for the ethernet chip. After
changing the priority level simply use flood ping to drown
the board with interrupts.
This patch applies to INTCA-based processors such as sh7372,
sh7377 and sh7372. GIC-based processors are not affected.

I am about to commit:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00033.html
that fixes a problem with the LD/SD macro currently implemented by GAS for
the o32 ABI in an inconsistent way. This is best illustrated with a
simple program, which I'm copying here from the message above for easier
reference:
$ cat ld.s
ld $5,32767($4)
ld $5,32768($4)
This gets assebled into the following output:
$ mips-linux-as -32 -mips3 -o ld.o ld.s
$ mips-linux-objdump -d ld.o
ld.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:

c: 8c258000 lw a1,-32768(at)
10: 8c268004 lw a2,-32764(at)
...
Oops!
The GAS fix makes the macro behave in a consistent way and pairs of LW/SW
instructions to be output as appropriate regardless of the size of the
offset associated with the address used. The machine instruction is still
available, but to reach it macros have to be disabled first. This has a
side effect of requiring the use of a machine-addressable memory operand.
As some platforms require 64-bit operations for accesses to some I/O
registers LD/SD instructions are used in a couple of places in Linux
regardless of the ABI selected. Here's a fix for some pieces of code
affected I've been able to track down. The fix should be backwards
compatible with all supported binutils releases in existence and can be
used as a reference for any other places or off-tree code. The use of the
"R" constraint guarantees a machine-addressable operand.

Consider the following test case:
write_c0_compare(read_c0_count());
Even if the counter doesn't increment during execution, this might not
generate an interrupt until the counter wraps around. The CPU may
perform the comparison each time CP0 COUNT increments, not when CP0
COMPARE is written.
If mips_next_event() is called with a very small delta, and CP0 COUNT
increments during the calculation of "cnt += delta", it is possible
that CP0 COMPARE will be written with the current value of CP0 COUNT.
If this is detected, the function should return -ETIME, to indicate
that the interrupt might not have actually gotten scheduled.
