In commit 7fe29e0faacb650d31b9e9f538203a157bec821d we ignored the reads to the P6 EVNTSEL MSRs. That fixed crashes on Intel machines.

2009-06-28KVM: s390: Allow stfle instruction in the guestChristian Borntraeger
2.6.31-rc introduced an architecture level set checker based on facility bits. e.g. if the kernel is compiled to run only on z9, several facility bits are checked very early and the kernel refuses to boot if a z9 specific facility is missing. Until now kvm on s390 did not implement the store facility extended (STFLE) instruction. A 2.6.31-rc kernel that was compiled for z9 or higher did not boot in kvm. This patch implements stfle. This patch should go in before 2.6.31. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

2009-06-26gro: Flush GRO packets in napi_disable_pending pathHerbert Xu
When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets. This is a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it also literally BUGs to catch error like this :) This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ reenabling. This should be safe because we've only just disabled IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in between.

2009-06-26ide-cd: handle fragmented packet commands gracefullyBorislav Petkov
There are some devices in the wild that clear the DRQ bit during the last word of a packet command and therefore could use a "second chance" for that last word of data to be xferred instead of simply failing the request. Do that by attempting to suck in those last bytes in PIO mode. In addition, the ATA_ERR bit has to be cleared for we cannot be sure the data is valid otherwise.

2009-06-26powerpc/mm: Fix potential access to freed pages when using hugetlbfsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When using 64k page sizes, our PTE pages are split in two halves, the second half containing the "extension" used to keep track of individual 4k pages when not using HW 64k pages. However, our page tables used for hugetlb have a slightly different format and don't carry that "second half". Our code that batched PTEs to be invalidated unconditionally reads the "second half" (to put it into the batch), which means that when called to invalidate hugetlb PTEs, it will access unrelated memory. It breaks when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled. This fixes it by only accessing the second half when the _PAGE_COMBO bit is set in the first half, which indicates that we are dealing with a "combo" page which represents 16x4k subpages. Anything else shouldn't have this bit set and thus not require loading from the second half. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-06-26powerpc/pasemi: Use raw spinlock in SMP TB syncBenjamin Herrenschmidt

2009-06-26powerpc: Use one common impl. of RTAS timebase sync and use raw spinlockBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Several platforms use their own copy of what is essentially the same code, using RTAS to synchronize the timebases when bringing up new CPUs. This moves it all into a single common implementation and additionally turns the spinlock into a raw spinlock since the former can rely on the timebase not being frozen when spinlock debugging is enabled, and finally masks interrupts while the timebase is disabled. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc/rtas: Turn rtas lock into a raw spinlockBenjamin Herrenschmidt
RTAS currently uses a normal spinlock. However it can be called from contexts where this is not necessarily a good idea. For example, it can be called while syncing timebases, with the core timebase being frozen. Unfortunately, that will deadlock in case of lock contention when spinlock debugging is enabled as the spin lock debugging code will try to use __delay() which ... relies on the timebase being enabled. Also RTAS can be used in some low level IRQ handling code path so it may as well be a raw spinlock for -rt sake. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc: Add irqtrace support for 32-bit powerpcBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Based on initial work from: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org> Add the low level irq tracing hooks for 32-bit powerpc needed to enable full lockdep functionality. The approach taken to deal with the code in entry_32.S is that we don't trace all the transitions of MSR:EE when we just turn it off to peek at TI_FLAGS without races. Only when we are calling into C code or returning from exceptions with a state that have changed from what lockdep thinks. There's a little bugger though: If we take an exception that keeps interrupts enabled (such as an alignment exception) while interrupts are enabled, we will call trace_hardirqs_on() on the way back spurriously. Not a big deal, but to get rid of it would require remembering in pt_regs that the exception was one of the type that kept interrupts enabled which we don't know at this stage. (Well, we could test all cases for regs->trap but that sucks too much). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Tested-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

Here's the revised > patch. Alright, I've reworked this now so that if we get one of these cases where there's a bsr that's > 4k and < 64k on a 64k kernel we'll only advertise that it is a 4k BSR to userspace. I think this is the best solution since user programs are only supposed to look at sysfs to determine how much can be mapped, and libbsr does this as well. Please consider for 2.6.31 as a fix, thanks. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc/BSR: add 4096 byte BSR sizeSonny Rao
Add a 4096 byte BSR size which will be used on new machines. Also, remove the warning when we run into an unknown size, as this can spam the kernel log excessively. Signed-off-by: Sonny Rao <sonnyrao@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc: Map more memory early on 601 processorsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The 32-bit kernel relies on some memory being mapped covering the kernel text,data and bss at least, early during boot before the full MMU setup is done. On 32-bit "classic" processors, this is done using BAT registers. On 601, the size of BATs is limited to 8M and we use 2 of them for that initial mapping. This can become quite tight when enabling features like lockdep, so let's use a 3rd one to bump that mapping from 16M to 24M. We keep the 4th BAT free as it can be useful for debugging early boot code to map things like serial ports. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc/pmac: Fix DMA ops for MacIO devicesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The macio_dev's created to map devices inside the MacIO ASICs don't have proper dma_ops. This causes crashes on some machines since the SCSI code calls dma_map_* on our behalf using the device we hang from. This fixes it by copying the parent PCI device dma_ops into the macio_dev when creating it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-26powerpc/mm: Make k(un)map_atomic out of lineBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Those functions are way too big to be inline, besides, kmap_atomic() wants to call debug_kmap_atomic() which isn't exported for modules and causes module link failures. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
