The ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB config option will select GPIOLIB which
in turn will select GENERIC_GPIO. Because of this, there is no
reason to do the select GENERIC_GPIO in arch/arm/Kconfig for the

Older versions of the slang library didn't used the 'const' specifier,
causing problems with modern compilers of this kind:
util/newt.c:252: error: passing argument 1 of ‘SLsmg_printf’ discards
qualifiers from pointer target type
Fix it by using some wrappers that when needed const the affected
parameters back to plain (char *).

The -c option defines the user requested sampling period. It was implemented
using an unsigned int variable but the type of the option was OPT_LONG. Thus,
the option parser was overwriting memory belonging to other variables, namely
the mmap_pages leading to a zero page sampling buffer. The bug was exposed only
when compiling at -O0, probably because the compiler was padding variables at
higher optimization levels.
This patch fixes this problem by declaring user_interval as u64. This also
avoids wrap-around issues for large period on 32-bit systems.
Commiter note:
Made it use OPT_U64(user_interval) after implementing OPT_U64 in the
previous patch.

We create two constants, write them out to the stack, read them straight back
in and sign extend them. What a mess.
It turns out this bad code is a result of us defining atomic_t as a
volatile int.
We removed the volatile attribute from the powerpc atomic_t definition years
ago, but commit ea435467500612636f8f4fb639ff6e76b2496e4b (atomic_t: unify all
arch definitions) added it back in.
To dig up an old quote from Linus:

> Volatile accesses in *code* can be ok, and if we have "atomic_read()"

And screw up it does :)
With the volatile removed, we see much more reasonable code generation:

There are currently two hardware performance monitoring subsystems in
the kernel for ARM: OProfile and perf-events. This creates the
following problems:
1.) Duplicate PMU accessor code. Inevitable code drift may lead to
bugs in one framework that are fixed in the other.
2.) Locking issues. OProfile doesn't reprogram hardware counters
between profiling runs if the events to be monitored have not been
changed. This means that other profiling frameworks cannot use the
counters if OProfile is in use.
3.) Due to differences in the two frameworks, it may not be possible to
compare the results obtained by OProfile with those obtained by perf.
This patch removes the OProfile PMU driver code and replaces it with
calls to perf, therefore solving the issues mentioned above.
The only userspace-visible change is the lack of SCU counter support
for 11MPCore. This is currently unsupported by OProfile userspace tools anyway and therefore shouldn't cause any problems.

The ARM perf-events framework provides support for a number of different
PMUs using struct arm_pmu. The char *name field of this struct can be
used to identify the PMU, but this is cumbersome if used outside of perf.
This patch replaces the name string for a PMU with an enum, which holds
a unique ID for the PMU being represented. This ID can be used to index
an array of names within perf, so no functionality is lost. The presence
of the ID field, allows other kernel subsystems [currently oprofile] to
use their own mappings for the PMU name.

The current PMU infrastructure for ARM requires that the IRQs for the PMU
device are fixed at compile time and are selected based on the ARCH_ or MACH_ flags. This has the disadvantage of tying the Kernel down to a
particular board as far as profiling is concerned.
This patch replaces the compile-time IRQ registration with a runtime mechanism which allows the IRQs to be registered with the framework as
a platform_device.
A further advantage of this change is that there is scope for registering
different types of performance counters in the future by changing the id
of the platform_device and attaching different resources to it.

The exception-trace facility on x86 and other architectures prints
traces to dmesg whenever a user space application crashes.
s390 has such a feature since ages however it is called
userprocess_debug and is enabled differently.
This patch makes sure that whenever one of the two procfs files
/proc/sys/kernel/userprocess_debug
/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace
is modified the contents of the second one changes as well.
That way we keep backwards compatibilty but also support the same
interface like other architectures do.
Besides that the output of the traces is improved since it will now
also contain the corresponding filename of the vma (when available)
where the process caused a fault or trap.

A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler
anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is
waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time
and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get
clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting.
To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check
handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer,
named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution
of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check
by checking the wait bit in the program status word.
