* [POWERPC] pseries: Force 4k update_flash block and list sizesJohn Rose2006-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The enablement of 64k pages on pseries platforms exposed a bug in the RTAS mechanism for updating firmware. RTAS assumes 4k for flash block and list sizes, and use of any other sizes results in a failure, even though PAPR does not specify any such requirement. This patch changes the rtas_flash module to force the use of 4k memory block and list sizes when preparing and sending a firmware image to RTAS. The rtas_flash function now uses a slab cache of 4k blocks with 4k alignment, rather than get_zeroed_page(), to allocate the memory for the flash blocks and lists. The 4k alignment requirement is specified in PAPR. Signed-off-by: John Rose <johnrose@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [PATCH] powerpc: Eliminate "exceeds stub group size" linker warningPaul Mackerras2006-11-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that the linker warnings on 64-bit powerpc about "section blah exceeds stub group size" were being triggered by conditional branches in head_64.S branching to global symbols, whether in head_64.S or in other files. This eliminates the warnings by making some global symbols in head_64.S no longer global, and by rearranging some branches. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> [ Yee-haa.

* [POWERPC] Make alignment exception always check exception tableBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | The alignment exception used to only check the exception table for -EFAULT, not for other errors. That opens an oops window if we can coerce the kernel into getting an alignment exception for other reasons in what would normally be a user-protected accessor, which can be done via some of the futex ops. This fixes it by always checking the exception tables. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] Use 4kB iommu pages even on 64kB-page systemsLinas Vepstas2006-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by numerous error messages: iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1 Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card. This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE and then uses this in all the places that matter. As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW is still 4k). In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW page sizes in the iommu itself.

* [POWERPC] Fix oprofile support for e500 in arch/powerpcAndy Fleming2006-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixed a compile error in building the 85xx support with oprofile, and in the process cleaned up some issues with the fsl_booke performance monitor code. * Reorganized FSL Book-E performance monitoring code so that the 7450 wouldn't be built if the e500 was, and cleaned it up so it was more self-contained. * Added a cpu_setup function for FSL Book-E. The original cpu_setup function prototype had no arguments, assuming that the reg_setup function would copy the required information into variables which represented the registers. This was silly for e500, since it has 1 register per counter (rather than 3 for all counters), so the code has been restructured to have cpu_setup take the current counter config array as an argument, with op_powerpc_setup() invoking op_powerpc_cpu_setup() through on_each_cpu(), and op_powerpc_cpu_setup() invoking the model-specific cpu_setup function with an argument.

* [POWERPC] Fix various offb issuesBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a few issues in offb: - A test was inverted causing the palette hack to never work (no device node was passed down to the init function) - Some cards seem to have their assigned-addresses property in a random order, thus we need to try using of_get_pci_address() first, which will fail if it's not a PCI device, and fallback to of_get_address() in that case. of_get_pci_address() properly parsees assigned-addresses to test the BAR number and thus will get it right whatever the order is. - Some cards (like GXT4500) provide a linebytes of 0xffffffff in the device-tree which does no good. This patch handles that by using the screen width when that happens. (Also fixes btext.c while at it). - Add detection of the GXT4500 in addition to the GXT2000 for the palette hacks (we use the same hack, palette is linear in register space at offset 0x6000).

* [POWERPC] Cell timebase bug workaroundBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Cell CPU timebase has an erratum. When reading the entire 64 bits of the timebase with one mftb instruction, there is a handful of cycles window during which one might read a value with the low order 32 bits already reset to 0x00000000 but the high order bits not yet incremeted by one. This fixes it by reading the timebase again until the low order 32 bits is no longer 0. That might introduce occasional latencies if hitting mftb just at the wrong time, but no more than 70ns on a cell blade, and that was considered acceptable.

* [POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso'sBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up. The main issue was that the construct: .long label (or .llong on 64 bits) will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc, which is not something we can deal with in the vdso. The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like: 1: .long label - 1b That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest of the kernel as well. Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not support 32 bits code with a statement of the form: .llong label - 1b (Or even just .llong label) That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are using a modified macro that generates: .long 0xffffffff .llong label - 1b Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the other way around).

* [POWERPC] Consolidate feature fixup codeBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and separately for 32 and 64 bits. This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any problem.

* [POWERPC] Simplify stolen time calculationStephen Rothwell2006-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In calculating stolen time, we were trying to actually account for time spent in the hypervisor. We don't really have enough information to do that accurately, so don't try. Instead, we now calculate stolen time as time that the current cpu thread is not actually dispatching instructions. On chips without a PURR, we cannot do this, so stolen time will always be zero. On chips with a PURR, this is merely the difference between the elapsed PURR values and the elapsed TB values. This gives us much more sane vaules from tools such as mpstat, even if they are still a bit strange e.g. 2 busy threads on one cpu will both appear to have 50% user time and 50% stolen time while 1 busy thread on a cpu will look like 100% user on one of them and 100% idle on the other.

* [POWERPC] Don't get PCI IRQ from OF for devices with no IRQBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds checking of the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN register before using standard OF parsing to retreive PCI interrupts. The reason is that some PCI devices may have no PCI interrupt, though they may have interrupts attached via other means. In this case, we shall not use irq->pdev, but device-specific code can later retreive those interrupts instead. Without that patch, Maple and derivatives don't get the right interrupt for the second IDE channel as the linux IDE code fallsback to the PCI irq instead of trying to use the legacy ones for the on-board controller (which has no PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN). Having no PCI IRQ assign to it (as it doesn't request any) fixes it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add powerpc get/set_rtc_time interface to new generic rtc class. This abstracts rtc chip specific code from the platform code for rtc-over-i2c platforms. Specific RTC chip support is now configured under Device Drivers -> Real Time Clock. Setting time of day from the RTC on startup is also configurable. this time without the potentially platform breaking initcall.

| * | [POWERPC] Always call cede in pseries dedicated idle loopAnton Blanchard2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The smt_snooze_delay logic changed a bit when the idle loops were consolidated. A value of 0 used to mean we always polled, now it means we always sleep. Instead of restoring the old behaviour, lets put a reasonable default in smt_snooze_delay. This means we spin for a bit (in case an external interrupt comes in) and then sleep. Also the pseries dedicated idle loop currently does not cede both threads in an SMT pair. The hypervisor wants us to call in so it can power manage, so lets do that. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
| * | [POWERPC] Fix loop logic in irq_alloc_virt()Michael Ellerman2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a bug in irq_alloc_virt() if it's asked for more than 1 interrupt, if it can't find a slot it might look past the end of the irq_map. To be clear: the bug is that the continue affects the inner for loop, not the outer one, so i becomes j + 1 and then we continue the inner loop without checking if i is still <= limit. This fixes it. No one in the kernel actually calls this with count > 1, so it's not critical.

| * | [POWERPC] Fix PPC32 SECCOMP, unexport do_syscall_trace_{enter,leave}David Woodhouse2006-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The secure_computing() call which automatically aborts a process if it tries to execute a syscall it shouldn't is much more useful if we actually do it _before_ the syscall, rather than afterwards. PPC64 got this right, but the original incorrect behaviour inherited from arch/ppc was preserved by ifdefs. Make it the same on PPC32 too. Also, I see no need to export do_syscall_trace_{leave,enter} on ppc32 -- they were only exported because the old do_syscall_trace() (which they replaced) used to be.

* | [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] rename the provided execve functions to kernel_execveArnd Bergmann2006-10-02

Rename these to kernel_execve to get the right semantics there. Moreover, there is no reasone for any of these architectures to still provide __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ or _syscallN macros, so remove these right away.

Later patches will move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname namespace into the nsproxy.
