| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there), or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual address space. This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but grew its own fixes. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 33f00dcedb0e22cdb156a23632814fc580fcfcf8. While it was a good idea to try to use the mm/vmalloc.c allocator instead of our own (in fact, ours is itself a dup on an old variant of the vmalloc one), unfortunately, the approach is terminally busted since dma_alloc_coherent() can be called at interrupt time or in atomic contexts and there's little chances we'll make the code in mm/vmalloc.c cope with\ that :-( Until we can get the generic code to forbid that idiocy and fix all drivers abusing it, we pretty much have no choice but revert to our custom virtual space allocator. There's also a problem with SMP safety since freeing such mapping would require an IPI which cannot be done at interrupt time. However, right now, I don't think we support any platform that is both SMP and has non-coherent DMA (don't laugh, I know such things do exist !) so we can sort that out later.

The kernel image is one statically linked object and only uses two relocation types - R_386_PC32 and R_386_32, of the two only the latter needs massaging during kernel relocation and thus handled by relocs. R_386_PC32 is ignored and all other relocation types are considered error. When the target of a relocation resides in a discarded section, binutils doesn't throw away the relocation record but nullifies it by changing it to R_386_NONE, which unfortunately makes relocs fail. The problem was triggered by yet out-of-tree x86 stack unwind patches but given the binutils behavior, ignoring R_386_NONE is the right thing to do. The problem has been tracked down to binutils behavior by Jan Beulich.

But recently the DDC code started doing multiple I2C transfers to get the EDID extensions as well. This tripped up SDVO, because the control bus switch is only in effect until the next STOP after a START. By doing our own algo, we can wrap each i2c transaction on the DDC I2C bus with the control bus switch it requires. freedesktop.org bug #21042 Signed-off-by: Ma Ling <ling.ma@intel.com> [anholt: Hand application for conflict, fixed error path] Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

As the connector type_id is coupled to the connector type, the connector type cannot simply be modified on an initialised connector. This patch changes the order of operations on intel_sdvo_init so that the type is determined before the connector is intialised. This fixes a bug whereby the name card0-VGA-1 would be allocted to both a CRT and an SDVO connector since the SDVO connector would be initialised with type 'unknown' and hence have its type_id assigned from the wrong pool.

This is nice and fast, but won't work well if memory is fragmented, since the slab allocator works with physically contiguous memory (i.e. order > 2 allocations are likely to fail fairly early after booting and doing some work). This patch works around the issue by falling back to vmalloc for >PAGE_SIZE allocations. This is ugly, but much less work than chaining a bunch of pages together by hand (suprisingly there's not a bunch of generic kernel helpers for this yet afaik). vmalloc space is somewhat precious on 32 bit kernels, but our allocations shouldn't be big enough to cause problems, though they're routinely more than a page. Note that this patch doesn't address the unchecked alloc-based-on-ioctl-args in GEM; that needs to be fixed in a separate patch. Also, I've deliberately ignored the DRM's "area" junk. I don't think anyone actually uses it anymore and I'm hoping it gets ripped out soon. [Updated: removed size arg to new free function. We could unify the free functions as well once the DRM mem tracking is ripped out.] fd.o bug #20152 (part 1/3) Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

Currently powernow-k8 determines CPU frequency from ACPI PSS objects, but according to AMD family 11h BKDG this frequency is just a rounded value: "CoreFreq (MHz) = The CPU COF specified by MSRC001_00[6B:64][CpuFid] rounded to the nearest 100 Mhz." As a consequnce powernow-k8 reports wrong CPU frequency on some systems, e.g. on Turion X2 Ultra: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82 processors (2 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: 0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz) powernow-k8: 1 : pstate 1 (1100 MHz) powernow-k8: 2 : pstate 2 (600 MHz) But this is wrong as frequency for Pstate2 is 550 MHz. x86info reports it correctly: #x86info -a |grep Pstate ... Pstate-0: fid=e, did=0, vid=24 (2200MHz) Pstate-1: fid=e, did=1, vid=30 (1100MHz) Pstate-2: fid=e, did=2, vid=3c (550MHz) (current) Solution is to determine the frequency directly from Pstate MSRs instead of using rounded values from ACPI table.

The rwlock seems to be taken around the whole call to cpufreq_governor_dbs(), when it should be only taken around accesses to the locked data, and especially *not* around the call to dbs_timer_exit(). Reverting my fix attempt would put the teardown race back in place (replacing the cancel_delayed_work_sync by cancel_delayed_work). Instead, a proper fix would imply modifying this critical section : cpufreq.c: __cpufreq_remove_dev() ... if (cpufreq_driver->target) __cpufreq_governor(data, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP); unlock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu); To make sure the __cpufreq_governor() callback is not called with rwsem held. This would allow execution of cancel_delayed_work_sync() without being nested within the rwsem. Applies on top of the 2.6.30-rc5 tree. Required to remove circular dep in teardown of both conservative and ondemande governors so they can use cancel_delayed_work_sync(). CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP does not modify the policy, therefore this locking seemed unneeded.
