* powerpc: Prepare xmon_save_regs for use with kdumpAnton Vorontsov2008-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | Today the arch/powerpc/xmon/setjmp.S file contains only the xmon_save_regs function. We want to use it for kdump purposes, so let's move the file into arch/powerpc/kernel/ and give the function a more generic name (ppc_save_regs).

| * powerpc/spufs: remove class_0_dsisr from spu exception handlingLuke Browning2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to the CBEA, the SPU dsisr is not updated for class 0 exceptions. spu_stopped() is testing the dsisr that was passed to it from the class 0 exception handler, so we return a false positive here. This patch cleans up the interrupt handler and erroneous tests in spu_stopped. It also removes the fields from the csa since it is not needed to process class 0 events.

* [POWERPC] Use SLB size from the device treeMichael Neuling2007-12-10

There is an overall reduction of code, since module_32/64 duplicated several functions. Unfortunately there's no way to tell gcc that BUG won't return, so the BUG macro includes a goto loop. This will generate a real jmp instruction, which is never used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While adding spu disassembly support it struck me that we're actually carrying quite a lot of code around, just to do disassembly in the case of a crash.

For a Cell build this saves ~230KB (!), and for pSeries ~195KB. We still support the 'di' and 'sdi' commands, however they just dump the instruction in hex.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a command to xmon to dump the memory of a spu's local store. This mimics the 'd' command which dumps regular memory, but does a little hand holding by taking the user supplied address and finding that offset in the local store for the specified spu. This makes it easy for example to look at what was executing on a spu: 1:mon> ss ... Stopped spu 04 (was running) ... 1:mon> sf 4 Dumping spu fields at address c0000000019e0a00: ... problem->spu_npc_RW = 0x228 ... 1:mon> sd 4 0x228 d000080080318228 01a00c021cffc408 4020007f217ff488 |........@ ..!...| Aha, 01a00c02, which is of course rdch $2,$ch24 ! -- Updated to only do the setjmp goo around the spu access, and not around prdump because it does its own (via mread). Also the num variable is now common between sf and sd, so you don't have to keep typing the spu number in if you're repeating commands on the same spu.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a command to xmon for dumping information about spu structs. The command is 'sf' for "spu fields" perhaps, and takes the spu number as an argument. This is the same value as the spu->number field, or the "phys-id" value of a context when it is bound to a physical spu. We try to catch memory errors as we dump each field, hopefully this will make the command reasonably robust, but YMMV. If people see a need we can easily add more fields to the dump in future.

* [POWERPC] add support for stopping spus from xmonMichael Ellerman2006-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for stopping, and restarting, spus from xmon. We use the spu master runcntl bit to stop execution, this is apparently the "right" way to control spu execution and spufs will be changed in the future to use this bit. Testing has shown that to restart execution we have to turn the master runcntl bit on and also rewrite the spu runcntl bit, even if it is already set to 1 (running). Stopping spus is triggered by the xmon command 'ss' - "spus stop" perhaps. Restarting them is triggered via 'sr'. Restart doesn't start execution on spus unless they were running prior to being stopped by xmon. Walking the spu->full_list in xmon after a panic, would mean corruption of any spu struct would make all the others inaccessible. To avoid this, and also to make the next patch easier, we cache pointers to all spus during boot. We attempt to catch and recover from errors while stopping and restarting the spus, but as with most xmon functionality there are no guarantees that performing these operations won't crash xmon itself.

* 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.

* [POWERPC] Don't try to just continue if xmon has no input devicePaul Mackerras2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | Currently, if xmon has no input device (as is generally the case on G5 powermacs), and we drop into xmon as a result of a fatal exception, it will return 1, which die() interprets as "continue without causing an oops". This fixes it by making xmon() return 0 in the case where it has no input device. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] Fix xmon=off and cleanup xmon initialisationMichael Ellerman2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My patch to make the early xmon logic work with earlier early param parsing (480f6f35a149802a94ad5c1a2673ed6ec8d2c158) breaks xmon=off. No one does this obviously as xmon rocks, but it should really work as documented. While fixing that it struck me that we could move the xmon param handling into xmon.c, and also consolidate the xmon_init()/do_early_xmon logic into xmon_setup(). This means xmon=early drops into xmon a little earlier on 32-bit, but it seems to work just fine. Tested on PSERIES and CLASSIC32.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch contains a total rewrite of the backlight infrastructure for portable Apple computers. Backward compatibility is retained. A sysfs interface allows userland to control the brightness with more steps than before. Userland is allowed to upload a brightness curve for different monitors, similar to Mac OS X.

* [PATCH] powerpc: udbg updatesBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | The udbg low level io layer has an issue with udbg_getc() returning a char (unsigned on ppc) instead of an int, thus the -1 if you had no available input device could end up turned into 0xff, filling your display with bogus characters.

* [PATCH] powerpc: Unify udbg (#2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt2006-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well, approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations. The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify them in a later patch. For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a later patch.
