* powerpc/mm: Track backing pages allocated by vmemmap_populate()Mark Nelson2010-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to keep track of the backing pages that get allocated by vmemmap_populate() so that when we use kdump, the dump-capture kernel knows where these pages are. We use a simple linked list of structures that contain the physical address of the backing page and corresponding virtual address to track the backing pages. To save space, we just use a pointer to the next struct vmemmap_backing. We can also do this because we never remove nodes. We call the pointer "list" to be compatible with changes made to the crash utility. vmemmap_populate() is called either at boot-time or on a memory hotplug operation. We don't have to worry about the boot-time calls because they will be inherently single-threaded, and for a memory hotplug operation vmemmap_populate() is called through: sparse_add_one_section() | V kmalloc_section_memmap() | V sparse_mem_map_populate() | V vmemmap_populate() and in sparse_add_one_section() we're protected by pgdat_resize_lock(). So, we don't need a spinlock to protect the vmemmap_list. We allocate space for the vmemmap_backing structs by allocating whole pages in vmemmap_list_alloc() and then handing out chunks of this to vmemmap_list_populate(). This means that we waste at most just under one page, but this keeps the code is simple.

* i2c/ibm-iic: Drop NO_IRQWolfram Sang2010-05-06

* powerpc: Correct parport interrupt parsingMartyn Welch2010-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the parsing of the device tree in arch/powerpc/include/asm/parport.h assumes that the interrupt provided in the parallel port node is a valid virtual irq. The values for the interrupts provided in the device tree should have meaning in the context of the driver for the specific interrupt controller to which the interrupt is connected and irq_of_parse_and_map() should be used to determine the correct virtual irq.

* powerpc: Fix CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC on 603/e300Benjamin Herrenschmidt2010-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | So we tried to speed things up a bit using flush_hash_pages() directly but that falls over on 603 of course meaning we fail to flush the TLB properly and we may even end up having it corrupt memory randomly by accessing a hash table that doesn't exist. This removes the "optimization" by always going through flush_tlb_page() for now at least. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
* powerpc/pseries: Only call start-cpu when a CPU is stoppedMichael Neuling2010-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started. This was not the case on POWER6 and earlier. This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which are stopped. This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary thread would make it to the second kernel.

* powerpc/mm: Bump SECTION_SIZE_BITS from 16MB to 256MBAnton Blanchard2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current setting for SECTION_SIZE_BITS is quite small compared to everyone else: arch/powerpc/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 24 arch/sparc/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 30 arch/ia64/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS (30) arch/s390/include/asm/sparsemem.h:#define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 28 arch/x86/include/asm/sparsemem.h:# define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 27 And it has proven to be an issue during boot on very large machines. If hotplug memory is enabled, drivers/base/memory.c does this: for (i = 0; i < NR_MEM_SECTIONS; i++) { if (!present_section_nr(i)) continue; err = add_memory_block(0, __nr_to_section(i), MEM_ONLINE, 0, BOOT); if (!ret) ret = err; } Which creates a sysfs directory for every 16MB of memory. As a result I'm seeing up to 30 minutes spent here during boot: c000000000248ee0 .__sysfs_add_one+0x28/0x128 c0000000002492a8 .sysfs_add_one+0x38/0x188 c000000000249c88 .create_dir+0x70/0x138 c000000000249d98 .sysfs_create_dir+0x48/0x78 c00000000032bad8 .kobject_add_internal+0x140/0x308 c00000000032beb4 .kobject_init_and_add+0x4c/0x68 c00000000046c2c0 .sysdev_register+0xa0/0x220 c00000000047b1dc .add_memory_block+0x124/0x1e8 c0000000008d1f28 .memory_dev_init+0xf4/0x168 c0000000008d1b64 .driver_init+0x50/0x64 c000000000890378 .do_basic_setup+0x40/0xd4 I assume there are some O(n^2) issues in sysfs as we add all the memory nodes. Bumping SECTION_SIZE_BITS to 256 MB drops the time to about 10 seconds and results in a much smaller /sys.

* powerpc/pseries: Call ibm,os-term if the ibm,extended-os-term is presentAnton Blanchard2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have had issues in the past with ibm,os-term initiating shutdown of a partition. This is confusing to the user, especially if panic_timeout is non zero. The temporary fix was to avoid calling ibm,os-term if a panic_timeout was set and since we set it on every boot we basically never call ibm,os-term. An extended version of ibm,os-term has since been implemented which gives us the behaviour we want: "When the platform supports extended ibm,os-term behavior, the return to the RTAS will always occur unless there is a kernel assisted dump active as initiated by an ibm,configure-kernel-dump call." This patch checks for the ibm,extended-os-term property and calls ibm,os-term if it exists.

* powerpc/numa: Set a smaller value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE to enable zone reclaimAnton Blanchard2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode was 0 on a ppc64 NUMA box. It gets enabled via this: /* * If another node is sufficiently far away then it is better * to reclaim pages in a zone before going off node. */ if (distance > RECLAIM_DISTANCE) zone_reclaim_mode = 1; Since we use the default value of 20 for REMOTE_DISTANCE and 20 for RECLAIM_DISTANCE it never kicks in. The local to remote bandwidth ratios can be quite large on System p machines so it makes sense for us to reclaim clean pagecache locally before going off node. The patch below sets a smaller value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE and thus enables zone reclaim.

* powerpc: Fix handling of strncmp with zero lenJeff Mahoney2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first string as the return value. This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that case.

* powerpc: Fix ioremap_flags() with book3e pte definitionBenjamin Herrenschmidt2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | We can't just clear the user read permission in book3e pte, because that will also clear supervisor read permission. This surely isn't desired. Fix the problem by adding the supervisor read back.

* powerpc: Add a new zImage for maple using a different link addressCorey Minyard2010-04-07
| | | | | | | | | The maple platform failed to load because it's firmware could not take a link address of 0x4000000. A new platform type with a link address of 0x400000 had to be created for the maple.

* Remove unused HDPU driverBenjamin Herrenschmidt2010-04-06
| | | | | | | | This driver seems to be specific to a "Sky CPU" board for which we don't appear to have upstream support (or not any more). No Kconfig file in the kernel ever enables it. So remove it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - pcmcia_align() used a "start" variable twice. That's obviously a bad idea. - pcmcia_common_resource() needs the current "start" parameter being passed, instead of res->start. - pcmcia_common_resource() doesn't use the size and align parameters, so get rid of those.

This is caused by the fact that we run interrupt handlers by default with interrupts enabled unless the driver reuqests the interrupt with the IRQF_DISABLED set. The NIC handlers do not set this flag, so simultaneous interrupts can nest unlimited and cause the stack overflow. The only safe counter measure is to run the interrupt handlers with interrupts disabled. We can't switch to this mode in general right now, but it is safe to do so for MSI interrupts. Force IRQF_DISABLED for MSI interrupt handlers.
