* [PATCH] x86_64: Add 4GB DMA32 zoneAndi Kleen2005-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones. As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port was originally designed we had some discussion if we should use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early 2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy. But this has always caused problems since then because device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven it can deal with many zones successfully. So this patch adds both zones. This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.). Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which was not enough memory. Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory (like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent, but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory (even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better. One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because it seems to be the most common restriction. The new zone is so far added only for x86-64. For other architectures who don't set up this new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32 as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able enough. One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA (trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite ugly and is now obsolete. These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| * [PATCH] nvidiafb: Geforce 7800 series support addedCalin A. Culianu2005-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the nvidiafb framebuffer driver. All it does is add the PCI device id for the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work on these cards. I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm. I now can get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!! Nothing like 200x75 text mode to make your eyes BLEED. ;) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

But it's not _quite_ right. The first problem is we calculate the number of registers with: nregs = sizeof(struct pt_regs) / sizeof(ELF_GREG_TYPE) For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's bogus because the registers are 64 bits, but ELF_GREG_TYPE is u32, so nregs == 88 which is wrong. The other problem is the memset, which assumes a struct pt_regs is smaller than a struct elf_regs. For a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel that's false. The fix is to calculate the number of regs using sizeof(unsigned long), which should always be right, and just memset the whole damn thing _before_ copying the registers in.

We can then define register_vpa() and unregister_vpa() which are both simple wrappers around vpa_call(). (we'll need unregister_vpa() for kexec soon) We can then cleanup vpa_init(), and because vpa_init() is only called from platforms/pseries we remove the definition in asm-ppc64/smp.h.

But we've already got <asm/page.h> in the linker script, so we can just use KERNELBASE directly. That means if we ever change KERNELBASE there's one less place to change it.
