* | [PARISC] Allow nested interruptsJames Bottomley2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our prior mode of operation didn't allow nested interrupts because it makes the interrupt code much simpler. However, nested interrupts are better for latency. This code uses the EIEM register to simulate level interrupts and thus achieve nesting.

* [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

* [PATCH] kill wall_jiffiesAtsushi Nemoto2006-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With 2.6.18-rc4-mm2, now wall_jiffies will always be the same as jiffies. So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

* [PATCH] vDSO hash-style fixRoland McGrath2006-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and dynamically-linked executables. The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces ".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the dynamic linker. The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both. In some new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash". The new ".gnu.hash" sections need to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the dynamic linker cares about their contents. To work with older dynamic linkers (i.e. preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old ".hash" section. The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can still handle. The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO images for the kernel. On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed. This patch addresses the problem in two ways. First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash". This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools), with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both. Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced. This is the most conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland. There is some concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries. The optimizations provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has. If someone wants to use =gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will make any choice work fine.

* [PATCH] vt: Remove VT-specific declarations and definitions from tty.hJon Smirl2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | MAX_NR_CONSOLES, fg_console, want_console and last_console are more of a function of the VT layer than the TTY one. Moving these to vt.h and vt_kern.h allows all of the framebuffer and VT console drivers to remove their dependency on tty.h.

| * [PARISC] Fix do_gettimeofday() hangJames Bottomley2006-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apparently gettimeoffset can return small negative values (usually in the 100us range). If xtime.tv_nsec is accidentally less than this, though (a fortunately unlikely event) it triggers the loop forever. I've added a test and correct adjustment for this case. It has a warning printk in there which I'd like to leave for the time being just in case this problem implicates some other part of the kernel.

| * [PARISC] Fix PCREL22F relocation problem for most modulesJames Bottomley2006-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new problem, which has been affecting many more modules was that our new ioremap really takes chunks out of our vmalloc space. The net result being that any two kernel vmalloc's now have to slot into the chunked up space. So the vmallocs for a modules init and core sectons are no longer necessarily contiguous. Unfortunately, the module loader thinks that any internal symbol references should be satisfiable using the jump instruction, which isn't true if the symbol is referenced from init to core and vmalloc placed them a long way apart. Fix this by introducing a new stub type for intra module inter sectional jumps and using it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We were assigned an OS_ID of 0x0006. Consistently use OS_ID_LINUX instead of using the magic number. Also update the OS_ID_ defines in asm/pdc.h to reflect this. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org>
| * [PARISC] Ensure Space ID hashing is turned offKyle McMartin2006-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Check PDC_CACHE to see if spaceid hashing is turned on, and fail to boot if that is the case. However, some old machines do not implement the PDC_CACHE_RET_SPID firmware call, so continue to boot if the call fails because of PDC_BAD_OPTION (but fail in all other error returns).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pdc_stable v0.30: This patch introduces 3 more files to the /sys/firmware/stable tree: - diagnostic, which contains a cryptic hex string - osdep1, a 16 bytes os-dependent storage area always available - osdep2, another os-dependent storage area which existence/size depends on hversion. This patch also adds code to setup the "Linux" signature in stable storage. That is to say that starting with this patch, the kernel will now sign its OSID (0x0006, thx LaMont) in Stable Storage upon boot, whether pdc_stable is enabled or not.
