* x86/efi: Add EFI framebuffer earlyprintk supportMatt Fleming2013-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's incredibly difficult to diagnose early EFI boot issues without special hardware because earlyprintk=vga doesn't work on EFI systems. Add support for writing to the EFI framebuffer, via earlyprintk=efi, which will actually give users a chance of providing debug output. Cc: H.

* memcg: get rid of swapaccount leftoversMichal Hocko2013-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The swapaccount kernel parameter without any values has been removed by commit a2c8990aed5a ("memsw: remove noswapaccount kernel parameter") but it seems that we didn't get rid of all the left overs. Make sure that menuconfig help text and kernel-parameters.txt are clear about value for the paramter and remove the stalled comment which is not very much useful on its own.

The current problem with the backend and frontend is that the segment size is limited to 11 pages. It means we can at most squeeze in 44kB per request. The ring can hold 32 (next power of two below 36) requests, meaning we can do 1.4M of outstanding requests. Nowadays that is not enough. The problem in the past was addressed in two ways - but neither one went upstream. The first solution to this proposed by Justin from Spectralogic was to negotiate the segment size. This means that the ‘struct blkif_sring_entry’ is now a variable size. It can expand from 112 bytes (cover 11 pages of data - 44kB) to 1580 bytes (256 pages of data - so 1MB). It is a simple extension by just making the array in the request expand from 11 to a variable size negotiated. But it had limits: this extension still limits the number of segments per request to 255 (as the total number must be specified in the request, which only has an 8-bit field for that purpose). The other solution (from Intel - Ronghui) was to create one extra ring that only has the ‘struct blkif_request_segment’ in them. The ‘struct blkif_request’ would be changed to have an index in said ‘segment ring’. There is only one segment ring. This means that the size of the initial ring is still the same. The requests would point to the segment and enumerate out how many of the indexes it wants to use. The limit is of course the size of the segment. If one assumes a one-page segment this means we can in one request cover ~4MB. Those patches were posted as RFC and the author never followed up on the ideas on changing it to be a bit more flexible. There is yet another mechanism that could be employed  (which these patches implement) - and it borrows from VirtIO protocol. And that is the ‘indirect descriptors’. This very similar to what Intel suggests, but with a twist. The twist is to negotiate how many of these 'segment' pages (aka indirect descriptor pages) we want to support (in reality we negotiate how many entries in the segment we want to cover, and we module the number if it is bigger than the segment size). This means that with the existing 36 slots in the ring (single page) we can cover: 32 slots * each blkif_request_indirect covers: 512 * 4096 ~= 64M. Since we ample space in the blkif_request_indirect to span more than one indirect page, that number (64M) can be also multiplied by eight = 512MB. Roger Pau Monne took the idea and implemented them in these patches. They work great and the corner cases (migration between backends with and without this extension) work nicely. The backend has a limit right now off how many indirect entries it can handle: one indirect page, and at maximum 256 entries (out of 512 - so 50% of the page is used). That comes out to 32 slots * 256 entries in a indirect page * 1 indirect page per request * 4096 = 32MB. This is a conservative number that can change in the future. Right now it strikes a good balance between giving excellent performance, memory usage in the backend, and balancing the needs of many guests. In the patchset there is also the split of the blkback structure to be per-VBD. This means that the spinlock contention we had with many guests trying to do I/O and all the blkback threads hitting the same lock has been eliminated. Also there are bug-fixes to deal with oddly sized sectors, insane amounts on th ring, and also a security fix (posted earlier).

Higher value means more potential throughput but more memory usage. The backend picks the minimum of the frontend and its default backend value.

The algorithm uses a simple LRU mechanism that removes (if needed) the persistent grants that have not been used since the last LRU run, or if all grants have been used it removes the first grants in the list (that are not in use). The algorithm allows the user to change the maximum number of persistent grants, by changing max_persistent_grants in sysfs. Since we are storing the persistent grants used inside the request struct (to be able to mark them as "unused" when unmapping), we no longer need the bitmap (unmap_seg).

This could not be done before because persistent grants used ballooned pages, whereas non-persistent grants used pages from the kernel. This patch also introduces several changes, the first one is that the list of free pages is no longer global, now each blkback instance has it's own list of free pages that can be used to map grants. Also, a run time parameter (max_buffer_pages) has been added in order to tune the maximum number of free pages each blkback instance will keep in it's buffer.

For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

Once placed in S3, the device will wake once either a timeout elapses or the battery reaches a critical level. It will then resume to the firmware and copy the contents of RAM to a specialised partition, and then power off the machine. If the user turns the machine back on the firmware will copy the contents of the partition back to RAM and then resume from S3 as normal. This driver provides an interface for configuring the wakeup events and timeout. It still requires firmware support and an appropriate suspend partition.

This should be able to perform the functions of the system timer and the local timer in an SMP system. The global timer has the following features: The global timer is a 64-bit incrementing counter with an auto-incrementing feature. It continues incrementing after sending interrupts. The global timer is memory mapped in the private memory region. The global timer is accessible to all Cortex-A9 processors in the cluster. Each Cortex-A9 processor has a private 64-bit comparator that is used to assert a private interrupt when the global timer has reached the comparator value. All the Cortex-A9 processors in a design use the banked ID, ID27, for this interrupt. ID27 is sent to the Interrupt Controller as a Private Peripheral Interrupt. The global timer is clocked by PERIPHCLK.

It fixed the typo by changing the name of the event in kernel and documentation accordingly. This patch changes the ABI, there are some reasons I think it's ok: - It is relatively new interface, specific to the Power7 platform. - No tools that we know of actually use this interface at this point (none are listed near the interface). - Users of this interface (eg oprofile users migrating to perf) would be more used to the "PM_BR_MPRED" rather than "PM_BRU_MPRED". - These are in the ABI/testing at this point rather than ABI/stable, so hoping we have some wiggle room.

With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq(). Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the right CPU. There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it. In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline): http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/245998 Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Acked-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>
