2011-05-19arch/tile: support signal "exception-trace" hookChris 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 <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2011-05-02arch/tile: support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUMEChris Metcalf
This support is required for CONFIG_KEYS, NFSv4 kernel DNS, etc. The change is slightly more complex than the minimal thing, since I took advantage of having to go into the assembly code to just move a bunch of stuff into C code: specifically, the schedule(), do_async_page_fault(), do_signal(), and single_step_once() support, in addition to the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME support.

2011-03-01arch/tile: bug fix: exec'ed task thought it was still single-steppingChris Metcalf
To handle single-step, tile mmap's a page of memory in the process space for each thread and uses it to construct a version of the instruction that we want to single step. If the process exec's, though, we lose that mapping, and the kernel needs to be aware that it will need to recreate it if the exec'ed process than tries to single-step as well. Also correct some int32_t to s32 for better kernel style. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
2010-10-15arch/tile: enable single-step support for TILE-GxChris 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.

2010-07-06arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.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.

2010-06-04arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.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/.
