Fix a problem in early versions of the FPGA IP.
In certain situations the IP reports that the FIFO is empty, but a byte is

byte is canceled.
This causes incompatibilities with the upper layers when a port is closed,
it waits until the FIFO is empty and then closes the port. During close
the FIFO is flushed -> the last byte is not sent properly.
Now the FIFO is only flushed if it is reported to be non-empty. Which
makes the currently clocked out byte to finish.

HID: fix up 'EMBEDDED' mess in Kconfig
The whole point of making some of the drivers automatically selected
unless 'EMBEDDED' was to handle quirks transparently after their separation
from the generic core.
Over time, some of the later-added quirks grew into more standalone drivers,
implementing non-trivial features a being larger than a few bytes of code.
In addition to that, some of the standalone drivers don't make sense for
99.9% of the users, as they are very specific to rare devices.
Therefore build by default in only those drivers which
- we historically used to support even before quirk separation from the
core code
- are isolated enough and likely to hit quite large portion of the
users anyway (Microsoft, Logitech)
In 2008, the IOMMU was fixed to use the boundary_mask parameter per
device properly. So 'protect4gb' workaround was removed (the 383af9525bb27f927511874f6306247ec13f1c28). But somehow I messed the

powerpc/kdump: Fix race in kdump shutdown

the primary doesn't check to make sure the secondaries have entered

On PHYP machines, the secondaries can take a long time shutting down

be serialised which resilts in the secondaries contending in
lock_rtas() and hence taking a long time to shut down.
We've hit this on large POWER7 machines, where some secondaries are
still waiting in lock_rtas(), when the primary tears down the HPTEs.

which means the primary can take a timer interrupt which can lead to
the IPIing one of the secondary CPUs (say, for a scheduler re-balance)
but since the secondary CPU now has a hw_cpu_id = -1, we IPI CPU
-1... Kaboom!
We are hitting this case regularly on POWER7 machines.
There is also a second race, where the primary will tear down the MMU
mappings before knowing the secondaries have entered real mode.
Also, the secondaries are clearing out any pending IPIs before
guaranteeing that no more will be received.
This changes kexec_prepare_cpus() so that we turn off IRQs in the
primary CPU much earlier. It adds a paca flag to say that the
secondaries have entered the kexec_smp_down() IPI and turned off IRQs,
rather than overloading hw_cpu_id with -1. This new paca flag is
again used to in indicate when the secondaries has entered real mode.
It also ensures that all CPUs have their IRQs off before we clear out
any pending IPI requests (in kexec_cpu_down()) to ensure there are no
trailing IPIs left unacknowledged.

We wrap the crash_shutdown_handles[] calls with longjmp/setjmp, so if any

fault handler hook which calls longjmp unconditionally.
This first part of kdump is run before we marshall the other CPUs, so there
is a very good chance some CPU on the box is going to page fault. And when
it does it hits the longjmp code and assumes the context of the oopsing CPU.
The machine gets very confused when it has 10 CPUs all with the same stack,
all thinking they have the same CPU id. I get even more confused trying
to debug it.
The patch below adds crash_shutdown_cpu and uses it to specify which cpu is
in the protected region. Since it can only be -1 or the oopsing CPU, we don't
need to use memory barriers since it is only valid on the local CPU - no other
CPU will ever see a value that matches it's local CPU id.
Eventually we should switch the order and marshall all CPUs before doing the
crash_shutdown_handles[] calls, but that is a bigger fix.

The reason is that decrementer_iSeries_masked is using
LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE to get the address of a kernel symbol, which
creates relocations that aren't handled by the kernel relocator code.
Instead of reading the tb_ticks_per_jiffy variable, we can just set
the decrementer to its maximum value (0x7fffffff) and that will work

echi-dbgp: Add kernel debugger support for the usb debug port
This patch adds the capability to use the usb debug port with the
kernel debugger. It is also still possible to use this functionality
with or without the earlyprintk=dbgpX. It is possible to use the
kgdbwait boot argument to debug very early in the kernel start up code.
There are two ways to use this driver extension with a kernel boot argument.
1) kgdbdbgp=# -- Where # is the number of the usb debug controller
You must use sysrq-g to break into the kernel debugger on another
connection type other than the dbgp.
2) kgdbdbgp=#debugControlNum#,#Seconds#
In this mode, the usb debug port is polled every #Seconds# for
character input. It is possible to use gdb or press control-c to
break into the kernel debugger.
From the implementation perspective there are 3 high level changes.
1) Allow variable retries for the the hardware via dbgp_bulk_read().
The amount of retries for the dbgp_bulk_read() needed to be
variable instead of fixed. We do not want to poll at all when the
kernel is operating in interrupt driven mode. The polling only
occurs if the kernel was booted when specifying some number of
seconds via the kgdbdbgp boot argument (IE kgdbdbgp=0,1). In this
case the loop count is reduced to 1 so as introduce the smallest
amount of latency as possible.
2) Save the bulk IN endpoint address for use by the kgdb code.
3) The addition of the kgdb interface code.
This consisted of adding in a character read function for the dbgp
as well as a polling thread to allow the dbgp to interrupt the
kernel execution. The rest is the typical kgdb I/O api.

x86,kgdb: Implement early hardware breakpoint debugging
It is not possible to use the hw_breakpoint.c API prior to mm_init(),
but it is possible to use hardware breakpoints with the kernel

Prior to smp_init() it is possible to simply write to the dr registers
of the boot cpu directly. This can be used up until the
kgdb_arch_late() is invoked, at which point the standard hw_breakpoint.c
API will get used.

x86, kgdb, init: Add early and late debug states
The kernel debugger can operate well before mm_init(), but the x86
hardware breakpoint code which uses the perf api requires that the
kernel allocators are initialized.
This means the kernel debug core needs to provide an optional arch
specific call back to allow the initialization functions to run after
the kernel has been further initialized.
The kdb shell already had a similar restriction with an early
initialization and late initialization. The kdb_init() was moved into
the debug core's version of the late init which is called
dbg_late_init();

printk,kdb: capture printk() when in kdb shell
Certain calls from the kdb shell will call out to printk(), and any of

I/O to the polled I/O devices.

kgdb: Add the ability to schedule a breakpoint via a tasklet
Some kgdb I/O modules require the ability to create a breakpoint
tasklet, such as kgdboc and external modules such as kgdboe. The
breakpoint tasklet is used as an asynchronous entry point into the
debugger which will have a different function scope than the current
execution path where it might not be safe to have an inline
breakpoint. This is true of some of the kgdb I/O drivers which share
code with kgdb and rest of the kernel users.

mips,kgdb: kdb low level trap catch and stack trace
The only way the debugger can handle a trap in inside rcu_lock,
notify_die, or atomic_notifier_call_chain without a recursive fault is
to have a low level "first opportunity handler" do_trap_or_bp() handler.
Generally this will be something the vast majority of folks will not
need, but for those who need it, it is added as a kernel .config
option called KGDB_LOW_LEVEL_TRAP.
Also added was a die notification for oops such that kdb can catch an
oops for analysis.
There appeared to be no obvious way to pass the struct pt_regs from
the original exception back to the stack back tracer, so a special
case was added to show_stack() for when kdb is active because you
generally desire to generally look at the back trace of the original
exception.

kgdboc,keyboard: Keyboard driver for kdb with kgdb
This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver. This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.
This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.
All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.
If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:
kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait
If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:
kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0
You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.
Turn it on:
echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc
Turn it off:

kgdb: gdb "monitor" -> kdb passthrough
One of the driving forces behind integrating another front end (kdb)
to the debug core is to allow front end commands to be accessible via
gdb's monitor command. It is true that you could write gdb macros to
get certain data, but you may want to just use gdb to access the
commands that are available in the kdb front end.
This patch implements the Rcmd gdb stub packet. In gdb you access
this with the "monitor" command. For instance you could type "monitor
help", "monitor lsmod" or "monitor ps A" etc...
There is no error checking or command restrictions on what you can and
cannot access at this point. Doing something like trying to set
breakpoints with the monitor command is going to cause nothing but
problems. Perhaps in the future only the commands that are actually
known to work with the gdb monitor command will be available.

kgdb,8250,pl011: Return immediately from console poll
The design of the kdb shell requires that every device that can
provide input to kdb have a polling routine that exits immediately if
there is no character available. This is required in order to get the
page scrolling mechanism working.
Changing the kernel debugger I/O API to require all polling character
routines to exit immediately if there is no data allows the kernel
debugger to process multiple input channels.
NO_POLL_CHAR will be the return code to the polling routine when ever
there is no character available.

kgdb: core changes to support kdb
These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.
This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed. It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.
You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically. From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.
The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected. That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state. The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.

This patch contains only the kdb core. Because the change set was
large, it was split. The next patch in the series includes the
instrumentation into the core kernel which are mainly helper functions

This work is directly derived from kdb v4.4 found at:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v4.4/
The kdb internals have been re-organized to make them mostly platform
independent and to connect everything to the debug core which is used by
gdbstub (which has long been known as kgdb).
The original version of kdb was 58,000 lines worth of changes to
support x86. From that implementation only the kdb shell, and basic
commands for memory access, runcontrol, lsmod, and dmesg where carried
forward.
This is a generic implementation which aims to cover all the current
architectures using the kgdb core: ppc, arm, x86, mips, sparc, sh and
blackfin. More archictectures can be added by implementing the
architecture specific kgdb functions.
