* [PATCH] powerpc: fix of_parse_dma_windowWill Schmidt2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My js20 appears to lack the ibm,#dma- properties, and boot fails with a "Kernel panic - not syncing: iommu_init_table: Can't allocate 0 bytes" message. This adds a fallback to the "#address-cells" property in case the "#ibm,dma-address-cells" property is missing. Tested on js20 and power5 lpar. Unless there is a more elegant solution... :-) Signed-off-by: Will Schmidt <willschm@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [PATCH] powerpc: Fix buglet with MMU hash managementBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue, might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV) as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back happens. Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately. This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.

* [PATCH] powerpc vdso updatesBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch cleans up some locking & error handling in the ppc vdso and moves the vdso base pointer from the thread struct to the mm context where it more logically belongs. It brings the powerpc implementation closer to Ingo's new x86 one and also adds an arch_vma_name() function allowing to print [vsdo] in /proc/<pid>/maps if Ingo's x86 vdso patch is also applied.

* [PATCH] powerpc: enable PPC_PTRACE_[GS]ETREGS on ppc32Renzo Davoli2006-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I have tested PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS on umview. I do not understand why historically these tags has been defined as PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS instead of simply PTRACE_[GS]ETREGS. The other "originality" is that the address must be put into the "addr" field instead of the "data" field as stated in the manual.

| | * [MIPS] Fix deadlock on MP with cache aliases.Ralf Baechle2006-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed. So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

The following code does not handle the edge condition correctly: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size < ei->addr + ei->size) ; last = addr + size; if ( last > ei->addr + ei->size ) continue; The second statement in the while loop needs to be a <= b so that it is the logical negavite of the if (a > b) outside it. It needs to read: while (bad_addr(&addr, size) && addr+size <= ei->addr + ei->size) ; In the case that failed bad_addr was returning an address that is exactly size bellow the end of the e820 range.

| * [PATCH] kprobes: bad manipulation of 2 byte opcode on x86_64Satoshi Oshima2006-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: If we put a probe onto a callq instruction and the probe is executed, kernel panic of Bad RIP value occurs. Root cause: If resume_execution() found 0xff at first byte of p->ainsn.insn, it must check the _second_ byte. But current resume_execution check _first_ byte again. I changed it checks second byte of p->ainsn.insn. Kprobes on i386 don't have this problem, because the implementation is a little bit different from x86_64.

| * [PATCH] i386 kdump boot cpu physical apicid fixVivek Goyal2006-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Kdump second kernel boot fails after a system crash if second kernel is UP and acpi=off and if crash occurred on a non-boot cpu. o Issue here is that MP tables report boot cpu lapic id as 0 but second kernel is booting on a different processor and MP table data is stale in this context. Hence apic_id_registered() check fails in setup_local_APIC() when called from APIC_init_uniprocessor(). o Problem is not seen if ACPI is enabled as in that case boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from the LAPIC. o Problem is not seen with SMP kernels as well because in this case also boot_cpu_physical_apicid is read from LAPIC. (smp_boot_cpus()). o The problem is fixed by reading boot_cpu_physical_apicid from LAPIC if it is a UP kernel and CRASH_DUMP is enabled.
