* cpumask: Use cpu_*_mask accessors code: alphaRusty Russell2009-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: use new API, fix SMP bug. Use the new accessors rather than frobbing bits directly. This also removes the bug introduced in ee0c468b (alpha: compile fixes) which had Alpha setting bits on an on-stack cpumask, not the cpu_online_map.

* alpha: fix RTC on marvelIvan Kokshaysky2009-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike other alphas, marvel doesn't have real PC-style CMOS clock hardware - RTC accesses are emulated via PAL calls. Unfortunately, for unknown reason these calls work only on CPU #0. So current implementation for arbitrary CPU makes CMOS_READ/WRITE to be executed on CPU #0 via IPI. However, for obvious reason this doesn't work with standard get/set_rtc_time() functions, where a bunch of CMOS accesses is done with disabled interrupts. Solved by making the IPI calls for entire get/set_rtc_time() functions, not for individual CMOS accesses. Which is also a lot more effective performance-wise. The patch is largely based on the code from Jay Estabrook. My changes: - tweak asm-generic/rtc.h by adding a couple of #defines to avoid a massive code duplication in arch/alpha/include/asm/rtc.h; - sys_marvel.c: fix get/set_rtc_time() return values (Jay's FIXMEs). NOTE: this fixes *only* LIB_RTC drivers. Legacy (CONFIG_RTC) driver wont't work on marvel. Actually I think that we should just disable CONFIG_RTC on alpha (maybe in 2.6.30?), like most other arches - AFAIK, all modern distributions use LIB_RTC anyway.

* alpha: nautilus - fix hang on bootIvan Kokshaysky2009-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently introduced generic pci_common_swizzle() relies on bus->self being NULL for the root PCI bus. But on nautilus bus->self points to the host bridge device, which is necessary as we do a root bus sizing on this system. As a result, pci_common_swizzle() loops infinitely. This worked until 2.6.29-rc1 because the alpha-specific swizzle routine checked for bus->parent == NULL (instead of bus->self). Fixed by clearing bus->self after bus sizing is done.

* alpha: nautilus - fix compile failure with gcc-4.3Ivan Kokshaysky2009-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | init_srm_irq() deals with irq's #16 and above, but size of irq_desc array on nautilus and some other system types is 16. So gcc-4.3 complains that "array subscript is above array bounds", even though this function is never called on those systems. This adds a check for NR_IRQS <= 16, which effectively optimizes init_srm_irq() code away on problematic platforms. Thanks to Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> for detailed analysis of the problem.

Move them to a central location. Twists: 1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them. 2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'. Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere. 3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky so I just manipulate them both in sync. 4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map' declarations.

| * | genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)Max Krasnyansky2008-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current IRQ affinity interface does not provide a way to set affinity for the IRQs that will be allocated/activated in the future. This patch creates /proc/irq/default_smp_affinity that lets users set default affinity mask for the newly allocated IRQs. Changing the default does not affect affinity masks for the currently active IRQs, they have to be changed explicitly. Updated based on Paul J's comments and added some more documentation.

* | | Alpha Linux kernel fails with inconsistent kallsyms dataBastian Blank2008-07-04
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The build of the Alpha Linux kernel currently fails[1] with inconsistent kallsyms data. As I never saw that before, I thought about hardware problems. But in fact it is a bug in the Linux kernel. The end of the rodata section is marked with the "__end_rodata" symbol. This symbol have different aligning constraints than the inittext parts and therefor the start marked "_sinittext". Because of that the __end_rodata symbol shifts between < _sinittext and == _sinittext. The later variant is seen as a code symbol and recorded in the kallsyms data. On fix would be to move the exception table a little bit and get some space between that two areas.

* | alpha: resurrect Cypress IDE quirkIvan Kokshaysky2008-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Which was removed in the hope that generic legacy IDE quirk in drivers/pci/probe.c is sufficient for Cypress IDE. It isn't, as this controller has non-standard BAR layout: secondary channel registers are in the BAR0-1 of the second PCI function - not in the BAR2-3 of the same function, as the generic quirk routine assumes.

* | alpha: fix compile failures with gcc-4.3 (bug #10438)Ivan Kokshaysky2008-06-20
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vast majority of these build failures are gcc-4.3 warnings about static functions and objects being referenced from non-static (read: "extern inline") functions, in conjunction with our -Werror. We cannot just convert "extern inline" to "static inline", as people keep suggesting all the time, because "extern inline" logic is crucial for generic kernel build. So - just make sure that all callees of critical "extern inline" functions are also "extern inline"; - use "static inline", wherever it's possible. traps.c: work around gcc-4.3 being too smart about array bounds-checking. TODO: add "gnu_inline" attribute to all our "extern inline" functions to ensure desired behaviour with future compilers.

* iomap: fix 64 bits resources on 32 bitsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Almost all implementations of pci_iomap() in the kernel, including the generic lib/iomap.c one, copies the content of a struct resource into unsigned long's which will break on 32 bits platforms with 64 bits resources. This fixes all definitions of pci_iomap() to use resource_size_t. I also "fixed" the 64bits arch for consistency.
