* sched: Don't export sched_mc_power_savings on multi-socket single core systemVaidyanathan Srinivasan2009-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix to prevent sched_mc_power_saving from being exported through sysfs for multi-scoket single core system. Max cores should be always greater than one (1). My earlier patch that introduced fix for not exporting 'sched_mc_power_saving' on laptops broke it on multi-socket single core system. This fix addresses issue on both laptop and multi-socket single core system. Below are the Test results: 1. Single socket - multi-core Before Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving' After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving' Result: Pass 2. Multi Socket - single core Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving' After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving' Result: Pass 3. Multi Socket - Multi core Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving' After Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving' [ Impact: make the sched_mc_power_saving control available more consistently ] Signed-off-by: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Suresh B Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <20090511143914.GB4853@dirshya.in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| * x86, kexec: fix crashdump panic with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMPHuang Ying2009-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tim Starling reported that crashdump will panic with kernel compiled with CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP due to null pointer deference in machine_kexec_32.c: machine_kexec(), when deferencing kexec_image. Refering to: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13265 This patch fixes the BUG via replacing global variable reference: kexec_image in machine_kexec() with local variable reference: image, which is more appropriate, and will not be null. Same BUG is in machine_kexec_64.c too, so fixed too in the same way.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the introduction of the .brk section, special care must be taken that no unused page table entries remain if _brk_end and _end are separated by a 2M page boundary. cleanup_highmap() runs very early and hence cannot take care of that, hence potential entries needing to be removed past _brk_end must be cleared once the brk allocator has done its job.

The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16 bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the top half of a register. The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the instruction itself. The immediate bits in the instruction are not contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value), so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value. The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

Since it is legal to give NULL as the tv argument, the code should make sure tv is not NULL before trying to dereference it. This issue manifests itself on x86_64 when vdso=0 is not on the kernel command-line and libc uses the vDSO for gettimeofday() (e.g. glibc >= 2.7). A simple reproducer: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> int main(void) { struct timezone tz; gettimeofday(NULL, &tz); return 0; } See http://bugs.debian.org/466491 for more details.

This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Oprofile is changing the naming it is using for the compatibility modes. Instead of having compat-power<x>, oprofile will go to family naming convention and use ibm-compat-v<x>. Currently only ibm-compat-v1 will be defined. The notion of compatibility events just started with POWER6. So there is no way that any other tool could exist that is using these oprofile_cpu_type strings we want to change.

* | | Move dtc and libfdt sources from arch/powerpc/boot to scripts/dtcDavid Gibson2009-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The powerpc kernel always requires an Open Firmware like device tree to supply device information. On systems without OF, this comes from a flattened device tree blob. This blob is usually generated by dtc, a tool which compiles a text description of the device tree into the flattened format used by the kernel. Sometimes, the bootwrapper makes small changes to the pre-compiled device tree blob (e.g. filling in the size of RAM). To do this it uses the libfdt library. Because these are only used on powerpc, the code for both these tools is included under arch/powerpc/boot (these were imported and are periodically updated from the upstream dtc tree). However, the microblaze architecture, currently being prepared for merging to mainline also uses dtc to produce device tree blobs. A few other archs have also mentioned some interest in using dtc. Therefore, this patch moves dtc and libfdt from arch/powerpc into scripts, where it can be used by any architecture. The vast bulk of this patch is a literal move, the rest is adjusting the various Makefiles to use dtc and libfdt correctly from their new locations.
