* [POWERPC] print backtrace when entering xmonOlaf Hering2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | xmon does not print a backtrace per default. This is bad on systems with USB keyboard, the most needed info about the crash is lost. print a backtrace during the very first xmon entry. Booting with xmon=nobt disables the autobacktrace functionality. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] Quiet hvc_console console output on failed opensOlof Johansson2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | No other tty driver will print on the console when the open of it fails. On systems that happen to be configured for both ttyS0 and hvc0 console, this will keep flooding the console output. This is most likely to happen with systems booted between with and without hypervisor from the same filesystem. Let's just remove it. When it's really needed (i.e. when the open fails and someone is trying to debug it), noone will see the output anyway. And init will report the opens failing in due time through the syslog.

* [POWERPC] powerpc: Divorce CPU_FTR_CTRL from CPU_FTR_PPCAS_ARCH_V2_BASEOlof Johansson2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The performance monitor implementation (including CTRL register behaviour) is just included in PPC v2 as an example, it's not truly part of the base. It's actually a somewhat misleading feature, but I'll leave that be for now: The presence of the register is not what the feature bit is used for, but instead it's used to determine if it contains the runlatch bit for idle reporting of the performance monitor. For alternative implementations, the register might still exist but the bit might have different meaning (or no meaning at all). For now, split it off and don't include it in CPU_FTR_PPCAS_ARCH_V2_BASE. Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] powerpc: Reduce default cacheline size to 64 bytesOlof Johansson2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | Reduce default cacheline size on 64-bit powerpc from 128 bytes to 64. This is the architected minimum. In most cases we'll still end up using cache line information from the device tree, but defaults are used during early boot and doing a few dcbst/icbi's too many there won't do any harm.

* [POWERPC] Split out vpa unregister logic from pseries_kexec_cpu_down_xics()Michael Ellerman2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As part of the new irq code pseries_kexec_cpu_down() was split into a xics and mpic version. The vpa unregister logic is now only done in the xics routine, and although that's ok in practice (we don't have SPLPAR machines with mpic), I'd rather have the two concepts stay separate. So move the vpa unregister into pseries_kexec_cpu_down(), which gets called by both the xics and mpic routines. This also gives us an obvious place to put any new kexec-down logic needed in future.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>, our memcpy implementation didn't return the destination pointer as its return value, and there is code in the kernel that expects that.

| | * [POWERPC] Fix irq enable/disable in smp_generic_take_timebasePaul Mackerras2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eran Ben-Avi <eranpublic@yahoo.com> pointed out that the arch/ppc version of smp_generic_take_timebase disables interrupts on entry but exits without restoring them. However, both it and the arch/powerpc version have another problem, which is that they use local_irq_disable/enable rather than local_irq_save/restore, and they are called with interrupts disabled. This fixes both problems; it changes a return to a break in the arch/ppc version, and changes both versions to use local_irq_save/restore. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
| | * [POWERPC] Fix problem with time not advancing on 32-bit platformsPaul Mackerras2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a problem introduced in 5db9fa9593e2ff69f2b95f9d59229dc4faaa564d. The last_jiffy per-cpu variable is only 32 bits on 32-bit machines, but it was being compared with a 64-bit quantity (tb_next_jiffy), which resulted in time not advancing. This fixes it by changing last_jiffy to be 64 bits on all platforms. With this, we no longer need tb_last_stamp as a 32-bit version of tb_last_jiffy, so this gets rid of tb_last_stamp and we just use tb_last_jiffy instead. This also fixes a bug when the boot cpu is not online, because using tb_last_stamp could have caused the wrong timebase origin value to be used when calculating the time of day.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device-tree bugs on js20 with some versions of SLOF were causing the interrupt for IDE to not be parsed correctly and fail to boot.

This enables the mpic code to deal with mpic controllers with different register layouts and hardware behaviours. This introduces CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD. For boards with non standard mpic controllers, select CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD and add its hardware information in the mpic_infos[] array. TSI108/109 PIC takes the first index of weird hardware information table. :) The table can be extended. The Tsi108/109 PIC looks like standard OpenPIC but, in fact, is different in register mapping and behavior. The patch does not affect the behavior of standard mpic. If CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD is not defined, the code is essentially identical to the current code. [benh@kernel.crashing.org: This patch is a slightly cleaned up version of Zang Roy's support for the TSI108 MPIC variant. It also fixes up MPC7448_hpc2 to use the new version of the type macros and changes the way MPIC is selected in Kconfig to better match what is done for other system devices. ] Signed-off-by: Roy Zang <tie-fei.zang@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When reworking the powerpc irq code, I figured out that we were using the radix tree in a racy way.

| * | | [PATCH] x86_64: Remove __KERNEL__ ifdef around _syscall*()Andi Kleen2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After all their only point is having them in user space. On x86-64 they don't even work in kernel space. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
| * | | [PATCH] x86: Disable MMCONFIG on Intel SDV using DMI blacklistAndi Kleen2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As a replacement for the earlier removal of the e820 MCFG check we blacklist the Intel SDV with the original BIOS bug that motivated that check. On those machines don't use MMCONFIG. This also adds a new pci=mmconf parameter to override the blacklist.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The .fill causes miscompilations with some binutils version. Instead just patch the lock prefix in the lock constructs. That is the majority of the cost and should be good enough.

| * | | [PATCH] x86_64: Recover 1MB of kernel memoryAndi Kleen2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noticed by Jan Beulich. When the kernel was moved from 1MB to 2MB in 2.6.17 the kernel reservation code wasn't adjusted and it still reserved starting with 1MB. This means 1MB always were lost. This patch fixes this by reserving only starting with _text. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
| * | | [PATCH] x86: Make backtracer fallback logic more bullet-proofJan Beulich2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The unwinder fallback logic still had potential for falling through to the legacy stack trace code without printing an indication (at once serving as a separator) of this. Further, the stack pointer retrieval for the fallback should be as restrictive as possible (in order to avoid having the legacy stack tracer try to access invalid memory). The patch tightens that, but this could certainly be further improved. Also making the call_trace command line option now conditional upon CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND (as it's meaningless otherwise).
