* [PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset tooHugh Dickins2006-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (David:) If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example, because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path. But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't have a machine to test it on. (Hugh:) prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do. Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge mappings into a separate region of the address space.

* [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>

* [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.

* [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] IPIC: Fix spinlock recursion in set_irq_handlerScott Wood2006-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This causes ipic_set_irq_type to set the handler directly rather than call set_irq_handler, which causes spinlock recursion because the lock is already held when ipic_set_irq_type is called. I'm also not convinced that ipic_set_irq_type should be changing the handler at all. There seem to be several controllers that don't and several that do. Those that do would break what appears to be a common usage of calling set_irq_chip_and_handler followed by set_irq_type, if a non-standard handler were to be used. OTOH, irq_create_of_mapping() doesn't set the handler, but only calls set_irq_type(). This patch gets things working in the spinlock-debugging-enabled case, but I'm curious as to where the handler setting is ideally supposed to be done. I don't see any documentation on set_irq_type() that clarifies what the semantics are supposed to be.

* [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).

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.

| | | | | | | | When update_bridge_base() updates the IO window on a PCI-to-PCI bridge, it fails to zero the upper 16 bits of the base and limit registers if the window size is less than 64K. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* [POWERPC] Add DOS partition table support to mpc834x_itx_defconfigTimur Tabi2006-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | The default configuration file for the MPC8349E-mITX reference board, mpc834x_itx_defconfig, did not include support for DOS partition table types. This support is necessary because the hard drive that comes with the ITX is formatted with this partition table type. Without this config option, no partitions on the drive can be mounted.

* [PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisationMel Gorman2006-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2. Credit to Benjamin Herrenschmidt for identifying the bug and rolling the first fix. Additional credit to Johannes Berg and Andreas Schwab for reporting the problem and testing on powerpc.

| * [POWERPC] Fix secondary CPU startup on old "powersurge" SMP powermacsPaul Mackerras2006-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On the old "powersurge" SMP powermacs, the second CPU is started up by sending it an IPI, which has the side effect of stopping the timebase clock (so the secondary CPU's timebase can be synchronized with the primary's). The routine that did this used udelay, which will hang forever when the timebase is stopped, since udelay now spins until the timebase reaches a certain value. The end result is that the kernel would hang when bringing up the second CPU. This fixes it by using a simple loop which just does a fixed number of iterations to generate the delay. These old systems were all clocked at around 200 MHz or so, so a fixed number of iterations is acceptable. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
