| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having the id field be an int was making more complex bus topologies excessively difficult. For now, just convert it to a string, and change all instances of "bus->id = val" to snprintf(id, MII_BUS_ID_LEN, "%x", val).

The problem is that after INIT is issued, 2nd kernel starts and makedumpfile fails with the following error message. /proc/vmcore doesn't contain vmcoreinfo. '-x' or '-i' must be specified. makedumpfile Failed. The cause of this problem is that kernel does not call crash_save_vmcoreinfo. When kdump starts by panic or sysrq-trigger, crash_save_vmcoreinfo is called by crash_kexec. But this function is not called when kdump starts by INIT. The Attached patch fixes this. This patch just adds crash_save_vmcoreinfo into machine_kdump_on_init so that crash_save_vmcoreinfo can be called when kdump starts by INIT. I tested this patch with linux-2.6.25-rc9 and I confirmed it worked. Signed-off-by: Takao Indoh <indou.takao@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

"register_active_ranges()" is called as follows: efi_memmap_walk(register_active_ranges, NULL); i.e. once for the 4 - 18 Gbytes range. It picks up the node number from the start address, and registers all the memory for the node #0. "register_active_ranges()" should be called as follows to make sure there is no merged address range at its entry: efi_memmap_walk(filter_memory, register_active_ranges); "filter_memory()" is similar to "filter_rsvd_memory()", but the reserved memory ranges are not filtered out.

Kprobe-booster improves the performance of kprobes by eliminating single-step, where possible. Currently, kprobe-booster is implemented on x86 and x86-64. This is an ia64 port. On ia64, kprobe-booster executes a copied bundle directly, instead of single stepping. Bundles which have B or X unit and which may cause an exception (including break) are not executed directly. And also, to prevent hitting break exceptions on the copied bundle, only the hindmost kprobe is executed directly if several kprobes share a bundle and are placed in different slots. Note: set_brl_inst() is used for preparing an instruction buffer(it does not modify any active code), so it does not need any atomic operation.

Patch them appropriately to let ia64 work with pid namespaces. Besides, this is one more step in deprecating of pid and tgid on task_struct. The fsys_getppid() is to be patched as well, but its logic is much more complex now, so I will make it later. One thing I'm not 100% sure is the trick with the IA64_UPID_SHIFT. On order to access the pid->level's element of an array I have to perform the following calculations pid + sizeof(struct upid) * pid->level The problem is that ia64 can only multiply float point registers, while all the offsets I have in code are in rXX ones. Fortunately, the sizeof(struct upid) is 32 bytes on ia64 (and is very unlikely to ever change), so the calculations get simpler: pid + pid->level << 5 So, I introduce the IA64_UPID_SHIFT and use the shl instruction. I also looked at how gcc compiles the similar place and found that it makes it with shift as well. Is this OK to do so? Tested with ski emulator with 2.6.24 kernel, but fits 2.6.25-rc4 and 2.6.25-rc4-mm1 as well.

Adding this flag enable us to turning on/off of kdump depend on the event, INIT and/or fatal MCA. Default for this flag is to take the dump.

But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB in parallel. The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in ia64_global_tlb_purge(). It also adds support for the "PALO" table to get a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY). PALO specification can be found at: http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_PALO_R1_0.pdf spinaphore implementation by Matthew Wilcox.

It does this by not allocating per_cpu areas for cpus that can never exist. In the case where acpi does not have any numa node description of the cpus, I defaulted to assigning the first 32 round-robin on the known nodes.. For the !CONFIG_ACPI I used for_each_possible_cpu().

The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390 and powerpc arch have. By turning this config on, these archs change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling based one to state-transition based one. The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time (cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point, such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc. The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

However it also not needed to have a totally NOP bundle (nop * 3) before branch. As a result, this makes the code path 3 (or 2) bundles shorter (and remove 1 unnecessary stop bit).
