* ieee1394: sbp2: safer initialization of status fifoStefan Richter2006-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sbp2's copy of the status fifo was cleared when management ORBs or new command ORBs were prepared. The latter had potential for a race condition if the block layer's soft IRQ and the 1394 LLD's interrupt handler ran on different CPUs. It would also yield wrong status if a command was completed with non-zero completion status before other commands that had zero completion status, and no new command was enqueued in the meantime. Now, the status buffer is cleared right before it is written. Thus it ends up in the following simpler and safer access pattern: - sbp2_alloc_device: allocates and implicitly clears once, - sbp2_handle_status_write: clears, writes, and reads, - sbp2_query_logins, sbp2_login_device, sbp2_reconnect_device: read. The latter three do not race with sbp2_handle_status_write because of how the protocol works. As a tiny optimization, the first two quadlets of the status never need to be cleared.

* ieee1394: sbp2: optimize DMA direction of command ORBsStefan Richter2006-09-17
| | | | | | | | Only the driver writes ORBs, the device just reads them. Therefore PCI_DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL can be replaced by PCI_DMA_TODEVICE which may be cheaper on some architectures. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
* ieee1394: sbp2: discard return value of sbp2_link_orb_commandStefan Richter2006-09-17

* ieee1394: sbp2: safer last_orb and next_ORB handlingStefan Richter2006-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sbp2 initiator has two ways to tell a target's fetch agent about new command ORBs: - Write the ORB's address to the ORB_POINTER register. This must not be done while the fetch agent is active. - Put the ORB's address into the previously submitted ORB's next_ORB field and write to the DOORBELL register. This may be done while the fetch agent is active or suspended. It must not be done while the fetch agent is in reset state. Sbp2 has a last_orb pointer which indicates in what way a new command should be announced. That pointer is concurrently accessed at various occasions. Furthermore, initiator and target are accessing the next_ORB field of ORBs concurrently and asynchronously. This patch does: - Protect all initiator accesses to last_orb by sbp2_command_orb_lock. - Add pci_dma_sync_single_for_device before a previously submitted ORB's next_ORB field is overwritten. - Insert a memory barrier between when next_ORB_lo and next_ORB_hi are overwritten. Next_ORB_hi must not be updated before next_ORB_lo. - Remove the rather unspecific and now superfluous qualifier "volatile" from the next_ORB fields. - Add comments on how last_orb is connected with what is known about the target's fetch agent's state.

* ieee1394: shrink tlabel pools, remove tpool semaphoresStefan Richter2006-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reduces the size of struct hpsb_host and also removes semaphores from ieee1394_transactions.c. On i386, struct hpsb_host shrinks from 10656 bytes to 6688 bytes. This is accomplished by - using a single wait_queue for hpsb_get_tlabel instead of many instances of semaphores, - using a single lock to serialize access to all tlabel pools (the protected code regions are small, i.e. lock contention very low), - omitting the sysfs attribute tlabels_allocations. Drawback: In the rare case that a process needs to sleep because all transaction labels for the node are temporarily exhausted, it is also woken up if a tlabel for a different node became free, checks for an available tlabel, and is put to sleep again. The check is not costly and the situation occurs extremely rarely. (Tlabels are typically only exhausted if there was no context switch to the khpsbpkt thread which recycles tlables.) Therefore the benefit of reduced tpool size outweighs this drawback. The sysfs attributes tlabels_free and tlabels_mask are not compiled anymore unless CONFIG_IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG is set. The by far biggest member of struct hpsb_host, the struct csr_control csr (5272 bytes on i386), is now placed at the end of struct hpsb_host. Note, hpsb_get_tlabel calls the macro wait_event_interruptible with a condition argument which has a side effect (allocation of a tlabel and manipulation of the packet). This side effect happens only if the condition is true. The patch relies on wait_event_interruptible not evaluating the condition again after it became true.

| | * | [PATCH] headers_check: use a different default directoryDavid Woodhouse2006-09-16

In fact, there's no _particular_ reason for headers_install to put it there either -- it can go into a subdirectory of the build tree in both cases. It's not intended to go directly into /usr/include, which is why we didn't put it there -- and we certainly don't want people screwing around with symlinking to it. It's for distributors to take away and do stuff with, so leaving it in $(objtree) is fine, even in the headers_install case. I picked $(objtree)/usr/include but I have no _particular_ preference for that; it just seemed reasonable.

[ Note that at least with GCC 4, <linux/compiler.h> doesn't do the forced inlining about which there are nasty comments (and a workaround) in <asm/compiler.h>, unless you set CONFIG_FORCED_INLINING.

| | | * [POWERPC] Fix G5 DART (IOMMU) race causing occasional data corruptionBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems that the occasional data corruption observed with the tg3 driver wasn't due to missing barriers after all, but rather seems to be due to the DART (= IOMMU) in the U4 northbridge reading stale IOMMU table entries from memory due to a race. This fixes it by making the CPU read the entry back from memory before using it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
| | | * [POWERPC] Fix MMIO ops to provide expected barrier behaviourPaul Mackerras2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the writeX family of functions to have a sync instruction before the MMIO store rather than after, because the generally expected behaviour is that the device receiving the MMIO store can be guaranteed to see the effects of any preceding writes to normal memory. To preserve ordering between writeX and readX, and to preserve ordering between preceding stores and the readX, the readX family of functions have had an sync added before the load. Although writeX followed by spin_unlock is not officially guaranteed to keep the writeX inside the spin-locked region unless an mmiowb() is used, there are currently drivers that depend on the previous behaviour on powerpc, which was that the mmiowb wasn't actually required. Therefore we have a per-cpu flag that is set by writeX, cleared by __raw_spin_lock and mmiowb, and tested by __raw_spin_unlock. If it is set, __raw_spin_unlock does a sync and clears it. This changes both 32-bit and 64-bit readX/writeX. 32-bit already has a sync in __raw_spin_unlock (since lwsync doesn't exist on 32-bit), and thus doesn't need the per-cpu flag. Tested on G5 (PPC970) and POWER5. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

| | | * [POWERPC] kdump: Support kernels having 64k page size.Sachin P. Sant2006-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is required to generate proper core files using kdump on ppc64. Create a backup region of 64K size irrespective of the PAGE SIZE. At present 32K was used as backup size. In the case of 64K page size, second PT_LOAD segments starts at 32K and the first one is not page aligned. __ioremap() (crash_dump.c) fails if pfn = 0 which is the case for the second PT_LOAD segment. This is not an issue for 4K page size because the the first page (32K backup) is copied to second kernel memory and thus referencing with the second kernel pfn.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for new hardware and bumps the version to 3.6.10. It seems there were several changes introduced including soft_irq. I decided to bump the major number to reflect these changes. Since we're still supporting older vendor kernels I need some way differentiate between kernel versions <=2.6.10 and newer kernels >=2.6.16.

Move an #endif /* __KERNEL__ */ down a few lines to prevent that. Also, remove the broken definition of PAGE_SIZE which is never going to be correct -- in the absence of PAGE_SIZE, non-broken userspace will fall back to using sysconf() or getpagesize() instead.
