<content type='text'>
On each sample, Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA) content is
saved in pt_regs. MMCRA does not have a entry as-is in the pt_regs but
instead, MMCRA content is saved in the "dsisr" register of pt_regs.

Patch adds another entry to the perf_regs structure to include the
"MMCRA" printing which internally maps to the "dsisr" of pt_regs.

It also check for the MMCRA availability in the platform and present
value accordingly

mpe: This was the 2nd patch in a series with commit 333804dc3b7a
("powerpc/perf: Update perf_regs structure to include SIER") but I
accidentally only merged the 1st patch, so merge this one now.

Now that Kbuild automatically creates asm-generic wrappers for missing
mandatory headers, it is redundant to list the same headers in
generic-y and mandatory-y.

<content type='text'>
These comments are leftovers of commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all
headers under uapi directories").

Prior to that commit, exported headers must be explicitly added to
header-y. Now, all headers under the uapi/ directories are exported.

System call table generation script must be run to gener-

This patch will have changes which will invokes the script.

This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table-
_32/64/c32/spu.h files by the syscall table generation
script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files
against the removed files must be identical.

The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/-
asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file
will be included by kernel/systbl.S file.

<title>powerpc: add __NR_syscalls along with NR_syscalls</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8a19eeeab66dfdd7c67bc8e3048ac0064e8943d7</id>
<content type='text'>
NR_syscalls macro holds the number of system call exist
in powerpc architecture. We have to change the value of
NR_syscalls, if we add or delete a system call.

One of the patch in this patch series has a script which
will generate a uapi header based on syscall.tbl file.
The syscall.tbl file contains the number of system call
information. So we have two option to update NR_syscalls
value.

1. Update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h manually by count-
   ing the no.of system calls. No need to update NR_sys-
   calls until we either add a new system call or delete
   existing system call.

2. We can keep this feature in above mentioned script,
   that will count the number of syscalls and keep it in
   a generated file. In this case we don't need to expli-
   citly update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h file.

The 2nd option will be the recommended one. For that, I
added the __NR_syscalls macro in uapi/asm/unistd.h along
with NR_syscalls asm/unistd.h. The macro __NR_syscalls
also added for making the name convention same across all
architecture. While __NR_syscalls isn't strictly part of
the uapi, having it as part of the generated header to
simplifies the implementation. We also need to enclose
this macro with #ifdef __KERNEL__ to avoid side effects.

Now that there are different variants of pt_regs for userspace and
kernel, the uapi for the BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type must be
changed by exporting the user_pt_regs structure instead of the pt_regs
structure that is in-kernel only.

 "Here is the big tty and serial pull request for 4.20-rc1

  Lots of little things here, including a merge from the SPI tree in
  order to keep things simpler for everyone to sync around for one
  platform.

  Major stuff is:

   - tty buffer clearing after use

   - atmel_serial fixes and additions

   - xilinx uart driver updates

  and of course, lots of tiny fixes and additions to individual serial
  drivers.

  All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues for a
  while"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - A large series to rewrite our SLB miss handling, replacing a lot of
     fairly complicated asm with much fewer lines of C.

   - Following on from that, we now maintain a cache of SLB entries for
     each process and preload them on context switch. Leading to a 27%
     speedup for our context switch benchmark on Power9.

   - Improvements to our handling of SLB multi-hit errors. We now print
     more debug information when they occur, and try to continue running
     by flushing the SLB and reloading, rather than treating them as
     fatal.

   - Enable THP migration on 64-bit Book3S machines (eg. Power7/8/9).

   - Add support for physical memory up to 2PB in the linear mapping on
     64-bit Book3S. We only support up to 512TB as regular system
     memory, otherwise the percpu allocator runs out of vmalloc space.

   - Add stack protector support for 32 and 64-bit, with a per-task
     canary.

   - Add support for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.

   - Support recognising "big cores" on Power9, where two SMT4 cores are
     presented to us as a single SMT8 core.

   - A large series to cleanup some of our ioremap handling and PTE
     flags.

   - Add a driver for the PAPR SCM (storage class memory) interface,
     allowing guests to operate on SCM devices (acked by Dan).

   - Changes to our ftrace code to handle very large kernels, where we
     need to use a trampoline to get to ftrace_caller().

  And many other smaller enhancements and cleanups.
