This is needed to resolve race conditions in the chip. The code currently uses the user address of the CBR. This works but opens up additional endcases related to stealing of contexts and accessing the CBR from tasks that do not have access to the user address space. (Some of this non-user task access is debug code that is not currently being pushed to the community). User CBRs are also directly accessible using the kernel mapping of the CBR. Change the TLB dropin code to use the the kernel mapping of the CBR.

* | | | x86: uv: XPC receive message reuse triggers invalid BUG_ON()Robin Holt2009-12-16

XPC was in the middle of sending an acknowledgement for a received message. In xpc_received_payload_uv(): . ret = xpc_send_gru_msg(ch->sn.uv.cached_notify_gru_mq_desc, msg, sizeof(struct xpc_notify_mq_msghdr_uv)); if (ret != xpSuccess) XPC_DEACTIVATE_PARTITION(&xpc_partitions[ch->partid], ret); msg->hdr.msg_slot_number += ch->remote_nentries; at the point in xpc_send_gru_msg() where the hardware has dispatched the acknowledgement, the remote side is able to reuse the message structure and send a message with a different slot number. This problem is made worse by interrupts. The adjustment of msg_slot_number and the BUG_ON in xpc_handle_notify_mq_msg_uv() which verifies the msg_slot_number is consistent are only used for debug purposes. Since a fix for this that preserves the debug functionality would either have to infringe upon the payload or allocate another structure just for debug, I decided to remove it entirely.

The GRU does not support bcopy operations from MMR space so we need to special case the MMR addresses using VLOAD operations.

* | | kgdb: Replace strstr() by strchr() for single-character needlesGeert Uytterhoeven2009-12-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some versions of gcc replace calls to strstr() with single-character "needle" string parameters by calls to strchr() behind our back. This causes linking errors if strchr() is defined as an inline function in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k, which BTW doesn't have kgdb support). Prevent this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.
