2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Fix SLB flushing path in hugepageDavid Gibson
On ppc64, when opening a new hugepage region, we need to make sure any old normal-page SLBs for the area are flushed on all CPUs. There was a bug in this logic - after putting the new hugepage area masks into the thread structure, we copied it into the paca (read by the SLB miss handler) only on one CPU, not on all. This could cause incorrect SLB entries to be loaded when a multithreaded program was running simultaneously on several CPUs. This patch corrects the error, copying the context information into the PACA on all CPUs using the mm in question before flushing any existing SLB entries.

2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Add missing icache flushes for hugepagesDavid Gibson
On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed. Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this for hugepages, this patch corrects the situation. We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying the flush until userspace actually attempts to execute from the page in question. Tested on G5.

2005-12-09[PATCH] powerpc: Set cache info defaultsOlof Johansson
Cache info is setup by walking the device tree in initialize_cache_info(). However, icache_flush_range might be called before that, in slb_initialize()->patch_slb_encoding, which modifies the load immediate instructions used with SLB fault code. Not only that, but depending on memory layout, we might take SLB faults during unflatten_device_tree. So that fault will load an SLB entry that might not contain the right LLP flags for the segment. Either we can walk the flattened device tree to setup cache info, or we can pick the known defaults that are known to work. Doing it in the flattened device tree is hairier since we need to know the machine type to know what property to look for, etc, etc. For now, it's just easier to go with the defaults. Worst thing that happens from it is that we might waste a few cycles doing too small dcbst/icbi increments.

2005-12-08[NET]: Fix NULL pointer deref in checksum debugging.Stephen Hemminger
The problem I was seeing turned out to be that skb->dev is NULL when the checksum is being completed in user context. This happens because the reference to the device is dropped (to allow it to be released when packets are in the queue). Because skb->dev was NULL, the netdev_rx_csum_fault was panicing on deref of dev->name. How about this? Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-12-08[PATCH] powerpc: Remove debug code in hash pathBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Some debug code wasn't properly removed from the initial 64k pages patch, and while it's harmless, it's also slowing down significantly a very hot code path, thus it should really be removed.

2005-12-08[PATCH] powerpc: Fix a huge page bugBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The 64k pages patch changed the meaning of one argument passed to the low level hash functions (from "large" it became "psize" or page size index), but one of the call sites wasn't properly updated, causing potential random weird problems with huge pages.

2005-12-05ppc: Build in all three of powermac, PREP and CHRP supportPaul Mackerras
This reverts commit da0825fd201a03294dbf7f8f030676d608da122c, making it so that if you select CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM you get support for PMAC, PREP and CHRP built in. The reason for not allowing PMAC, PREP and CHRP to be selected individually for ARCH=ppc is that there is too much interdependency between them in the platform support code. For example, CHRP uses the PMAC nvram code. Configuring with ARCH=powerpc does allow you to select support for PMAC and CHRP separately. Support for PREP is not there yet but should be there soon.

2005-12-05powerpc/pseries: Optimize IOMMU setupPaul Mackerras
The previous commit will use the page-at-a-time hypervisor call for setting up IOMMU entries when we are using 64k pages and setting up one 64k page, even though that means 16 calls to the hypervisor, since the hypervisor still works on 4k pages. This optimizes this case by using the multi-page IOMMU setup hypervisor call instead. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2005-12-03Link USB drivers later in the kernelLinus Torvalds
We want to link the "regular" SCSI drivers before the USB storage driver, since historically we've always detected internal SCSI disks before the external USB storage modules. The link order matters for initcall ordering, and this got broken by mistake by commit 7586269c0b52970f60bb69fcb86e765fc1d72309 which moved the USB host controller PCI quirk handling around.

On server, create a *new* file with the same name containing that string: $ mv ~/t/tmp ~/t/tmp.old; echo foo > ~/t/tmp will show how the client will never (and I mean never ;-) ) see the updated file. The problem is that we do not update nfsi->cache_change_attribute when the file changes on the server (we only update it when our client makes the changes). This again means that functions like nfs_check_verifier() will fail to register when the parent directory has changed and should trigger a dentry lookup revalidation.
