| * powerpc: Fix define_machine so machine_is() works from modulesPaul Mackerras2006-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | machine_is() was always returning 0 when used in a module, because we weren't exporting the machine definitions. This was why sound wasn't working on powermacs when CONFIG_SND_POWERMAC=m. Original fix from Ben Herrenschmidt, further fixed by me. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* | | | [PATCH] powerpc/pseries: clear PCI failure counter if no new failuresLinas Vepstas2006-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current PCI error recovery system keeps track of the number of PCI card resets, and refuses to bring a card back up if this number is too large. The goal of doing this was to avoid an infinite loop of resets if a card is obviously dead. However, if the failures are rare, but the machine has a high uptime, this mechanism might still be triggered; this is too harsh. This patch will avoids this problem by decrementing the fail count after an hour. Thus, as long as a pci card BSOD's less than 6 times an hour, it will continue to be reset indefinitely. If it's failure rate is greater than that, it will be taken off-line permanently. This patch is larger than it might otherwise be because it changes indentation by removing a pointless while-loop. The while loop is not needed, as the handler is invoked once fo each event (by schedule_work()); the loop is leftover cruft from an earlier implementation.

* | | | [PATCH] powerpc: clear IPIs on kdumpHaren Myneni2006-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some crash scenarios, the kexec CPU is not responding to an IPI sent by secondary CPU after init thread is forked, causing the system to drop into xmon during kdump boot. This problem can be reproduced each time when the debugger is enabled and soft-reset is used to invoke kdump boot. The first CPU sends an IPI - setting the IPI priority for all secondary cpus (xics_cause_ipi()). But some CPUs will enter into the xmon via soft-reset, i.e, not executing xics_ipi_action(). Hence, IPI is not cleared. When exited from the debugger, one of these CPUs could become the primary kexec CPU. Since the IPI is not cleared, causing this issue in kdump boot. This patch clears and EOI IPI for kexec CPU as well before the kdump boot started. Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* | | | [PATCH] powerpc: Disable and EOI interrupts in machine_crash_shutdown()Michael Ellerman2006-04-22
|/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We've seen several bugs caused by interrupt weirdness in the kdump kernel. Panicking from an interrupt handler means we fail to EOI the interrupt, and so the second kernel never gets that interrupt ever again. We also see hangs on JS20 where we take interrupts in the second kernel early during boot. This patch fixes both those problems, and although it adds more code to the crash path I think it is the best solution.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new i2c implementation for PowerMac has a regression that causes the hardware to go out of state when probing non-existent devices. While fixing that, I also found & fixed a couple of other corner cases. This fixes booting with a pbbuttons version that scans the i2c bus for an LMU controller among others. Tested on a dual G5 with thermal control (which has heavy i2c activity) with no problem so far.

* | | [PATCH] powerpc: Lower threshold for DART enablement to 1GBOlof Johansson2006-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting 30-bit DMA addresses. Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good. Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O as well as over NFS). iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

On reassoc, the softmac calls back into the driver. This results in a driver lock recursion. This schedules the assoc workqueue, instead of calling it directly. Probably, we should defer the _whole_ management frame processing to a tasklet or workqueue, because it does several callbacks into the driver. That is dangerous. This fix should go into linus's tree, before 2.6.17 is released, because it is remote exploitable (DoS by crash). Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

I personally disagree with this change and want it reverted. Patch for 2.6.17-rc1. Rationale : WIRELESS_EXT is an invisible option. Therefore, the only way for a user to enable it is via NET_RADIO. Some users need to do that for out-of-tree drivers. Therefore it should be mentionned in the title of the option. Rationale2 : the option just below is called "Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink". Some users may confuse this option for the main "Wireless Extension" option. Therefore reverting this change help disambiguate the relation between those two options.
