From 8e552c36d90c03d2cabf5373788998966751b609 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andres Salomon Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 21:46:29 -0400 Subject: power_supply: add CHARGE_COUNTER property and olpc_battery support for it This adds PROP_CHARGE_COUNTER to the power supply class (documenting it as well). The OLPC battery driver uses this for spitting out its ACR values (in uAh). We have some rounding errors (the data sheet claims 416.7, the math actually works out to 416.666667, so we're forced to choose between overflows or precision loss. I chose precision loss, and stuck w/ data sheet values), but I don't think anyone will care that much.

While significant amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data received from the architecture layer. This is a mistake, and has resulted in a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs. This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation. It also introduces a few basic defensive measures. The validation code can be explicitly disabled for embedded systems. This patch: Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation. Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel= command-line parameter. The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c. Ideally other mm initialisation code will be moved here over time.

A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially expensive operation. This patch adds a file called "removable" to the memory directory in sysfs to help such an agent. In this patch, a memory block is considered removable if; o It contains only MOVABLE pageblocks o It contains only pageblocks with free pages regardless of pageblock type On the other hand, a memory block starting with a PageReserved() page will never be considered removable. Without this patch, the user-agent is forced to choose a memory block to remove randomly.

When a suspend request -fails, all suspended devices are resumed and the system continues -to run. Suspend can be retried at a later time. - -Q: Can the driver block suspend/resume requests? - -Yes, a driver can delay its return from a suspend or resume -request until the device is ready to handle requests. It -is advantageous to return as quickly as possible from a -request as suspend/resume are done serially. - -Q: What context is a suspend/resume initiated from? - -A suspend or resume is initiated from a kernel thread context. -It is safe to block, allocate memory, initiate requests -or anything else you can do within the kernel. - -Q: Will requests continue to arrive after a suspend? - -Possibly. It is the driver's responsibility to queue(*), -fail, or drop any requests that arrive after returning -success to a suspend request.

The bus driver -or the power management subsystem will also enable any -wake-on functionality that the device has. - -Q: So, really, what do I need to do to support suspend/resume? - -You need to save any device context that would -be lost if the device was powered off and then restore -it at resume time. When ACPI is active, there are -three levels of device suspend states; D1, D2, and D3. -(The suspend state is passed as the "data" argument -to the device callback.) With D3, the device is powered -off and loses all context, D1 and D2 are shallower power -states and require less device context to be saved.

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

Currently, even if you pass model=intel-mac-v3 as a module parameter to snd_hda_intel, the function patch_stac922x (patch_sigmatel.c) will still try to auto-detect the model type. This is a problem on my MacBook Pro 1st generation, which needs intel-mac-v3, but sometimes incorrectly reports 0x00000100 as subsystem id, which causes the switch in patch_stac922x to select intel-mac-v4. To fix this, I added a new model called intel-mac-auto, so in case no module parameter is passed, and an Intel Mac board is detected, the model will be automatically detected, while no detection will be done if the model is forced to intel-mac-v3. This problem has been around for quite a while, and I used to fix it by moving the case statement for 0x00000100 in patch_stac922x so that intel-mac-v3 is chosen. Another way to fix the problem would be to check if a module parameter was set directly in patch_stac922x, using something like this: if (spec->board_config == STAC_INTEL_MAC_V3 && !codec->bus->modelname) { But I think it is less elegant (if you prefer that way, I can prepare a patch).

Otherwise, the kernel may crash as - soon as you start any threads or processes due to VM collisions - in the kernel or user process space. - - - Details from Dan Malek on 10/29/1999: - - The user application virtual space consumes the first 2 Gbytes - (0x00000000 to 0x7FFFFFFF). The kernel virtual text starts at - 0xC0000000, with data following. There is a "protection hole" - between the end of kernel data and the start of the kernel - dynamically allocated space, but this space is still within - 0xCxxxxxxx. - - Obviously the kernel can't map any physical addresses 1:1 in - these ranges. - - - Details from Dan Malek on 5/19/2000: - - During the early kernel initialization, the kernel virtual - memory allocator is not operational. Prior to this KVM - initialization, we choose to map virtual to physical addresses - 1:1. That is, the kernel virtual address exactly matches the - physical address on the bus. These mappings are typically done - in arch/ppc/kernel/head.S, or arch/ppc/mm/init.c. Only - absolutely necessary mappings should be done at this time, for - example board control registers or a serial uart. Normal device - driver initialization should map resources later when necessary. - - Although platform dependent, and certainly the case for embedded - 8xx, traditionally memory is mapped at physical address zero, - and I/O devices above physical address 0x80000000. The lowest - and highest (above 0xf0000000) I/O addresses are traditionally - used for devices or registers we need to map during kernel - initialization and prior to KVM operation. For this reason, - and since it followed prior PowerPC platform examples, I chose - to map the embedded 8xx kernel to the 0xc0000000 virtual address. - This way, we can enable the MMU to map the kernel for proper - operation, and still map a few windows before the KVM is operational. - - On some systems, you could possibly run the kernel at the - 0x80000000 or any other virtual address. It just depends upon - mapping that must be done prior to KVM operational. You can never - map devices or kernel spaces that overlap with the user virtual - space. This is why default IMMR mapping used by most BDM tools - won't work. They put the IMMR at something like 0x10000000 or - 0x02000000 for example. You simply can't map these addresses early - in the kernel, and continue proper system operation. - - The embedded 8xx/82xx kernel is mature enough that all you should - need to do is map the IMMR someplace at or above 0xf0000000 and it - should boot far enough to get serial console messages and KGDB - connected on any platform. There are lots of other subtle memory - management design features that you simply don't need to worry - about. If you are changing functions related to MMU initialization, - you are likely breaking things that are known to work and are - heading down a path of disaster and frustration. Your changes - should be to make the flexibility of the processor fit Linux, - not force arbitrary and non-workable memory mappings into Linux. - - - You don't want to change KERNELLOAD or KERNELBASE, otherwise the - virtual memory and MMU code will get confused. - - arch/ppc/Makefile:KERNELLOAD = 0xc0000000 - - include/asm-ppc/page.h:#define PAGE_OFFSET 0xc0000000 - include/asm-ppc/page.h:#define KERNELBASE PAGE_OFFSET - - - RAM is at physical address 0x00000000, and gets mapped to - virtual address 0xC0000000 for the kernel. - - - Physical addresses used by the Linux kernel: - -------------------------------------------- - - 0x00000000-0x3FFFFFFF 1GB reserved for RAM - 0xF0000000-0xF001FFFF 128K IMMR 64K used for dual port memory, - 64K for 8260 registers - - - Logical addresses used by the Linux kernel: - ------------------------------------------- - - 0xF0000000-0xFFFFFFFF 256M BAT0 (IMMR: dual port RAM, registers) - 0xE0000000-0xEFFFFFFF 256M BAT1 (I/O space for custom boards) - 0xC0000000-0xCFFFFFFF 256M BAT2 (RAM) - 0xD0000000-0xDFFFFFFF 256M BAT3 (if RAM > 256MByte) - - - EST SBC8260 Linux mapping: - -------------------------- - - DBAT0, IBAT0, cache inhibited: - - Chip - Memory Sel Use - --------------------- --- --------------------------------- - 0xF0000000-0xF001FFFF n/a IMMR: dual port RAM, registers - - DBAT1, IBAT1, cache inhibited: - -- cgit v1.2.2 From d84a52f62f6a396ed77aa0052da74ca9e760b28a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Horman Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:46:34 -0700 Subject: kdump: update kdump documentation as kexec-tools-resting has been renamed kexec-tools Signed-off-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Vivek Goyal Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt | 20 ++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) (limited to 'Documentation') diff --git a/Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt b/Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt index 9691c7f5166c..0705040531a5 100644 --- a/Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt +++ b/Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt @@ -65,26 +65,26 @@ Install kexec-tools 2) Download the kexec-tools user-space package from the following URL: -http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/horms/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-testing.tar.gz +http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/horms/kexec-tools/kexec-tools.tar.gz -This is a symlink to the latest version, which at the time of writing is -20061214, the only release of kexec-tools-testing so far.

It only needs to enable or disable it's + power supply. It's supply voltage is set by the hardware, + bootloader, firmware or kernel board initialisation code. + + Dynamic: consumer needs to change it's supply voltage or + current limit to meet operation demands. + + + o Power Domain - Electronic circuit that is supplied it's input power by the + output power of a regulator, switch or by another power + domain. + + The supply regulator may be behind a switch(s). i.e. + + Regulator -+-> Switch-1 -+-> Switch-2 --> [Consumer A] + | | + | +-> [Consumer B], [Consumer C] + | + +-> [Consumer D], [Consumer E] + + That is one regulator and three power domains: + + Domain 1: Switch-1, Consumers D & E. + Domain 2: Switch-2, Consumers B & C. + Domain 3: Consumer A. + + and this represents a "supplies" relationship: + + Domain-1 --> Domain-2 --> Domain-3. + + A power domain may have regulators that are supplied power + by other regulators. i.e. + + Regulator-1 -+-> Regulator-2 -+-> [Consumer A] + | + +-> [Consumer B] + + This gives us two regulators and two power domains: + + Domain 1: Regulator-2, Consumer B. + Domain 2: Consumer A. + + and a "supplies" relationship: + + Domain-1 --> Domain-2 + + + o Constraints - Constraints are used to define power levels for performance + and hardware protection. Constraints exist at three levels: + + Regulator Level: This is defined by the regulator hardware + operating parameters and is specified in the regulator + datasheet. i.e. + + - voltage output is in the range 800mV -> 3500mV. + - regulator current output limit is 20mA @ 5V but is + 10mA @ 10V. + + Power Domain Level: This is defined in software by kernel + level board initialisation code. It is used to constrain a + power domain to a particular power range. i.e. + + - Domain-1 voltage is 3300mV + - Domain-2 voltage is 1400mV -> 1600mV + - Domain-3 current limit is 0mA -> 20mA. + + Consumer Level: This is defined by consumer drivers + dynamically setting voltage or current limit levels. + + e.g. a consumer backlight driver asks for a current increase + from 5mA to 10mA to increase LCD illumination. This passes + to through the levels as follows :- + + Consumer: need to increase LCD brightness. Lookup and + request next current mA value in brightness table (the + consumer driver could be used on several different + personalities based upon the same reference device). + + Power Domain: is the new current limit within the domain + operating limits for this domain and system state (e.g. + battery power, USB power) + + Regulator Domains: is the new current limit within the + regulator operating parameters for input/ouput voltage. + + If the regulator request passes all the constraint tests + then the new regulator value is applied. + + +Design +====== + +The framework is designed and targeted at SoC based devices but may also be +relevant to non SoC devices and is split into the following four interfaces:- + + + 1. Consumer driver interface. + + This uses a similar API to the kernel clock interface in that consumer + drivers can get and put a regulator (like they can with clocks atm) and + get/set voltage, current limit, mode, enable and disable. This should + allow consumers complete control over their supply voltage and current + limit. This also compiles out if not in use so drivers can be reused in + systems with no regulator based power control. + + See Documentation/power/regulator/consumer.txt + + 2. Regulator driver interface. + + This allows regulator drivers to register their regulators and provide + operations to the core. It also has a notifier call chain for propagating + regulator events to clients. + + See Documentation/power/regulator/regulator.txt + + 3. Machine interface. + + This interface is for machine specific code and allows the creation of + voltage/current domains (with constraints) for each regulator. It can + provide regulator constraints that will prevent device damage through + overvoltage or over current caused by buggy client drivers. It also + allows the creation of a regulator tree whereby some regulators are + supplied by others (similar to a clock tree). + + See Documentation/power/regulator/machine.txt + + 4. Userspace ABI. + + The framework also exports a lot of useful voltage/current/opmode data to + userspace via sysfs. This could be used to help monitor device power + consumption and status. + + See Documentation/ABI/testing/regulator-sysfs.txt -- cgit v1.2.2 From 6392776d262fcd290616ff5e4246ee95b22c13f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Girdwood Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:19:02 +0100 Subject: regulator: documentation - consumer interface This adds documentation describing the consumer device interface.

Regulator Voltage Control & Status (dynamic drivers) +====================================================== + +Some consumer drivers need to be able to dynamically change their supply +voltage to match system operating points. e.g. CPUfreq drivers can scale +voltage along with frequency to save power, SD drivers may need to select the +correct card voltage, etc. + +Consumers can control their supply voltage by calling :- + +int regulator_set_voltage(regulator, min_uV, max_uV); + +Where min_uV and max_uV are the minimum and maximum acceptable voltages in +microvolts. + +NOTE: this can be called when the regulator is enabled or disabled. If called +when enabled, then the voltage changes instantly, otherwise the voltage +configuration changes and the voltage is physically set when the regulator is +next enabled. + +The regulators configured voltage output can be found by calling :- + +int regulator_get_voltage(regulator); + +NOTE: get_voltage() will return the configured output voltage whether the +regulator is enabled or disabled and should NOT be used to determine regulator +output state. However this can be used in conjunction with is_enabled() to +determine the regulator physical output voltage. + + +4. Regulator Current Limit Control & Status (dynamic drivers) +=========================================================== + +Some consumer drivers need to be able to dynamically change their supply +current limit to match system operating points. e.g. LCD backlight driver can +change the current limit to vary the backlight brightness, USB drivers may want +to set the limit to 500mA when supplying power. + +Consumers can control their supply current limit by calling :- + +int regulator_set_current_limit(regulator, min_uV, max_uV); + +Where min_uA and max_uA are the minimum and maximum acceptable current limit in +microamps. + +NOTE: this can be called when the regulator is enabled or disabled. If called +when enabled, then the current limit changes instantly, otherwise the current +limit configuration changes and the current limit is physically set when the +regulator is next enabled. + +A regulators current limit can be found by calling :- + +int regulator_get_current_limit(regulator); + +NOTE: get_current_limit() will return the current limit whether the regulator +is enabled or disabled and should not be used to determine regulator current +load. + + +5. Regulator Operating Mode Control & Status (dynamic drivers) +============================================================= + +Some consumers can further save system power by changing the operating mode of +their supply regulator to be more efficient when the consumers operating state +changes. e.g. consumer driver is idle and subsequently draws less current + +Regulator operating mode can be changed indirectly or directly. + +Indirect operating mode control. +-------------------------------- +Consumer drivers can request a change in their supply regulator operating mode +by calling :- + +int regulator_set_optimum_mode(struct regulator *regulator, int load_uA); + +This will cause the core to recalculate the total load on the regulator (based +on all it's consumers) and change operating mode (if necessary and permitted) +to best match the current operating load. + +The load_uA value can be determined from the consumers datasheet. e.g.most +datasheets have tables showing the max current consumed in certain situations. + +Most consumers will use indirect operating mode control since they have no +knowledge of the regulator or whether the regulator is shared with other +consumers. + +Direct operating mode control. +------------------------------ +Bespoke or tightly coupled drivers may want to directly control regulator +operating mode depending on their operating point. This can be achieved by +calling :- + +int regulator_set_mode(struct regulator *regulator, unsigned int mode); +unsigned int regulator_get_mode(struct regulator *regulator); + +Direct mode will only be used by consumers that *know* about the regulator and +are not sharing the regulator with other consumers. + + +6. Regulator Events +=================== +Regulators can notify consumers of external events. Events could be received by +consumers under regulator stress or failure conditions. + +Consumers can register interest in regulator events by calling :- + +int regulator_register_notifier(struct regulator *regulator, + struct notifier_block *nb); + +Consumers can uregister interest by calling :- + +int regulator_unregister_notifier(struct regulator *regulator, + struct notifier_block *nb); + +Regulators use the kernel notifier framework to send event to thier interested +consumers. -- cgit v1.2.2 From e8695ebe5568921c41c269f4434e17590735865c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Girdwood Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:20:11 +0100 Subject: regulator: documentation - regulator driver This adds documentation describing the regulator driver interface.

When this option is on, a breakpoint cannot be written into any readonly memory page. When an external debugger requests a breakpoint to get set, the kgdb_validate_break_address() was only checking to see if the address to place the breakpoint was readable and lacked a write check. This patch changes the validate routine to try reading (via the breakpoint set request) and also to try immediately writing the break point. If either fails, an error is correctly returned and the debugger behaves correctly. Then an end user can make the descision to use hardware breakpoints. Also update the documentation to reflect that using CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA will inhibit the use of software breakpoints.

This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

This driver was included into the kernel mainly to connect to the ISDN framework. This was done in linux 2.4.x. For 2.6.x, due to the fragile and moving ISDN support, this connection was never realized, and the only use of this driver was for device configuration. In the age of DSL, the demand of ISDN support is getting very low. Meanwhile, with the advent of libusb, an userspace driver was done for the device configuration which works fine for linux and mac. (Thanks to the libusb developers!). The userspace driver is downloadable from the auerswald web site. So this driver is obsolete now and has to be removed. Many thanks to all developers which helped me to bring this driver up and working.
