2007-12-23[POWERPC] 4xx: Improve support for 4xx indirect DCRsBenjamin Herrenschmidt2-10/+91
Accessing indirect DCRs is done via a pair of address/data DCRs. Such accesses are thus inherently racy, vs. interrupts, preemption and possibly SMP if 4xx SMP cores are ever used. This updates the mfdcri/mtdcri macros in dcr-native.h (which were so far unused) to use a spinlock. In addition, add some common definitions to a new dcr-regs.h file.

2007-12-23[POWERPC] Reworking machine check handling and Fix 440/440ABenjamin Herrenschmidt11-58/+258
This adds a cputable function pointer for the CPU-side machine check handling. The semantic is still the same as the old one, the one in ppc_md. overrides the one in cputable, though ultimately we'll want to change that so the CPU gets first. This removes CONFIG_440A which was a problem for multiplatform kernels and instead fixes up the IVOR at runtime from a setup_cpu function. The "A" version of the machine check also tweaks the regs->trap value to differenciate the 2 versions at the C level.

2007-12-21[POWERPC] Make non-PCI build work againStephen Rothwell3-1/+4
Maple and pasemi both require PCI as does CONFIG_OF_PLATFORM_PCI. The default setting of CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is set to match the protection around the relevant routines in asm/dma.h. I also had to remove the PMAC platform from the combined build. The precis is that to build a 64 bit kernel with no PCI, you can only include pSeries and iSeries.

2007-12-21[POWERPC] Implement arch disable/enable irq hooks.Scott Wood3-42/+58
These hooks ensure that a decrementer interrupt is not pending when suspending; otherwise, problems may occur on 6xx/7xx/7xxx-based systems (except for powermacs, which use a separate suspend path). For example, with deep sleep on the 831x, a pending decrementer will cause a system freeze because the SoC thinks the decrementer interrupt would have woken the system, but the core must have interrupts disabled due to the setup required for deep sleep. Changed via-pmu.c to use the new ppc_md hooks, and made the arch_* functions call the generic_* functions unconditionally. -- paulus Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2007-12-21[POWERPC] spufs: DMA Restart after SIGSEGVAndre Detsch2-3/+4
This fixes the behavior of spufs when a spu tries a DMA operation based on a wrong / unavailable address. Instead of just generating a SIGBUS signal, spufs now generates a SIGSEGV signal and restarts the problematic DMA operation after the execution of the application's signal handler. This allows applications to employ user-level paging systems. Although the restart_dma function is called before the application's signal handler, the operation is not actually performed at this time, since the spu context is already stopped. The operation only takes place when spu_run is restarted (which happens automatically).

Based on original patches from Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergman@de.ibm.com>; and Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Currently, spu contexts need to be loaded to the SPU in order to take class 0 and class 1 exceptions. This change makes the actual interrupt-handlers much simpler (ie, set the exception information in the context save area), and defers the handling code to the spufs_handle_class[01] functions, called from spufs_run_spu.

2007-12-21[POWERPC] cell: wrap master run control bitMasato Noguchi7-4/+72
Add platform specific SPU run control routines to the spufs. The current spufs implementation uses the SPU master run control bit (MFC_SR1[S]) to control SPE execution, but the PS3 hypervisor does not support the use of this feature. This change adds the run control wrapper routies spu_enable_spu() and spu_disable_spu(). The bare metal routines use the master run control bit, and the PS3 specific routines use the priv2 run control register. An outstanding enhancement for the PS3 would be to add a guard to check for incorrect access to the spu problem state when the spu context is disabled. This check could be implemented with a flag added to the spu context that would inhibit mapping problem state pages, and a routine to unmap spu problem state pages. When the spu is enabled with ps3_enable_spu() the flag would be set allowing pages to be mapped, and when the spu is disabled with ps3_disable_spu() the flag would be cleared and mapped problem state pages would be unmapped.

2007-12-21[POWERPC] Optimize counting distinct entries in the relocation sectionsEmil Medve2-31/+127
When a module has relocation sections with tens of thousands of entries, counting the distinct/unique entries only (i.e. no duplicates) at load time can take tens of seconds and up to minutes. The sore point is the count_relocs() function which is called as part of the architecture specific module loading processing path: -> load_module() generic -> module_frob_arch_sections() arch specific -> get_plt_size() 32-bit -> get_stubs_size() 64-bit -> count_relocs() Here count_relocs is being called to find out how many distinct targets of R_PPC_REL24 relocations there are, since each distinct target needs a PLT entry or a stub created for it. The previous counting algorithm has O(n^2) complexity. Basically two solutions were proposed on the e-mail list: a hash based approach and a sort based approach. The hash based approach is the fastest (O(n)) but the has it needs additional memory and for certain corner cases it could take lots of memory due to the degeneration of the hash. One such proposal was submitted here: http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2007-June/037641.html The sort based approach is slower (O(n * log n + n)) but if the sorting is done "in place" it doesn't need additional memory. This has O(n + n * log n) complexity with no additional memory requirements. This commit implements the in-place sort option.

2007-12-20dm crypt: use bio_add_pageMilan Broz1-13/+11
Fix possible max_phys_segments violation in cloned dm-crypt bio. In write operation dm-crypt needs to allocate new bio request and run crypto operation on this clone. Cloned request has always the same size, but number of physical segments can be increased and violate max_phys_segments restriction. This can lead to data corruption and serious hardware malfunction. This was observed when using XFS over dm-crypt and at least two HBA controller drivers (arcmsr, cciss) recently. Fix it by using bio_add_page() call (which tests for other restrictions too) instead of constructing own biovec. All versions of dm-crypt are affected by this bug.

This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed. (Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first, for example.) The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target() always returns a valid pointer. It may fail if a bio arrives from the block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM btree. This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device. After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message() check for this condition using dm_target_is_valid(). Sample test script to trigger oops:

2007-12-20debug: add end-of-oops markerArjan van de Ven1-0/+18
Right now it's nearly impossible for parsers that collect kernel crashes from logs or emails (such as www.kerneloops.org) to detect the end-of-oops condition. In addition, it's not currently possible to detect whether or not 2 oopses that look alike are actually the same oops reported twice, or are truly two unique oopses. This patch adds an end-of-oops marker, and makes the end marker include a very simple 64-bit random ID to be able to detect duplicate reports. Normally, this ID is calculated as a late_initcall() (in the hope that at that time there is enough entropy to get a unique enough ID); however for early oopses the oops_exit() function needs to generate the ID on the fly. We do this all at the _end_ of an oops printout, so this does not impact our ability to get the most important portions of a crash out to the console first. [ Sidenote: the already existing oopses-since-bootup counter we print during crashes serves as the differentiator between multiple oopses that trigger during the same bootup. ] Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit x86. Artificially injected very early crashes as well, as expected they result in this constant ID after multiple bootups: ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]--- ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]--- because the random pools are still all zero. But it all still works fine and causes no additional problems (which is the main goal of instrumentation code).

2007-12-20[POWERPC] cell/cbe_regs.c: Add missing of_node_putJulia Lawall1-0/+1
There should be an of_node_put when breaking out of a loop that iterates using for_each_node_by_type. This was detected and fixed using the following semantic patch.
