2006-12-12[CPUFREQ] Fix the bug in duplicate freq elimination code in acpi-cpufreqVenkatesh Pallipadi
Fix the bug in duplicate states elimination in acpi-cpufreq. Bug: Due to duplicate state elimiation in the loop earlier, the number of valid_states can be less than perf->state_count, in which case freq_table was ending up with some garbage/uninitialized entries in the table.

2006-12-12[CPUFREQ] speedstep-centrino should ignore upper performance control bitsGary Hade
On some systems there could be bits set in the upper half of the control value provided by the _PSS object. These bits are only relevant for cpufreq drivers that use IO ports which are not currently supported by the speedstep-centrino driver. The current MSR oriented code assumes that upper bits are not set and thus fails to work correctly when they are. e.g. the control and status value equality check failed on the IBM x3650 even though the ACPI spec allows inequality.

2006-10-15[CPUFREQ][8/8] acpi-cpufreq: Add support for freq feedback from hardwareVenkatesh Pallipadi
Enable ondemand governor and acpi-cpufreq to use IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSR to get active frequency feedback for the last sampling interval. This will make ondemand take right frequency decisions when hardware coordination of frequency is going on. Without APERF/MPERF, ondemand can take wrong decision at times due to underlying hardware coordination or TM2. Example: * CPU 0 and CPU 1 are hardware cooridnated. * CPU 1 running at highest frequency. * CPU 0 was running at highest freq. Now ondemand reduces it to some intermediate frequency based on utilization. * Due to underlying hardware coordination with other CPU 1, CPU 0 continues to run at highest frequency (as long as other CPU is at highest). * When ondemand samples CPU 0 again next time, without actual frequency feedback from APERF/MPERF, it will think that previous frequency change was successful and can go to wrong target frequency. This is because it thinks that utilization it has got this sampling interval is when running at intermediate frequency, rather than actual highest frequency.

2006-10-15[CPUFREQ][1/8] acpi-cpufreq: software coordination and handle all CPUs in ↵Venkatesh Pallipadi
the group This patchset has refresh/rebase of a bunch of patches/bugfixes related to acpi-cpufreq that were sent earlier on this list. patch 1/8 Patch that fixes a bug in swcoordination code in acpi-cpufreq patch 2/8 through patch 7/8 Grand unification of ACPI based speedstep-centrino and acpi-cpufreq drivers. ACPI allows P-state transitions in multiple ways. Like using IO ports or using processor native method (MSR). Without this patch, IO port based P-state transitions are handled in acpi-cpufreq driver and MSR based transitions on Intel CPUs are handled in speedstep-centrino driver. Even though most of the code in these two drivers should be similar, except for final changing/checking of frequency (one driver does it using IO port and other does it through MSR), we have duplicated code in these two drivers. There are also issues around BIOSes supporting both MSR and IO port and which driver should be loaded first in standard installations. The patchset combines functionality of these two driver into acpi-cpufreq driver. ACPI based functionality in speedstep-centrino is marked deprecated and will be removed in future. speedstep-centrino will continue to work on systems that depend on older non-ACPI table based P-state chanes. * 2/8 - Patch that reorganizes the code in acpi-cpufreq, cleaning it up a little and making it easier to add MSR support later. * 3/8 - Pull in the MSR based transition support into acpi-cpufreq. * 4/8 - Mark speedstep-centrino deprecated. Change the order in Makefile to load acpi-cpufreq first and speedstep-centrino later, in cases where both are configured in. * 5/8 - lindent acpi-cpufreq.c * 6/8 - Minor change to eliminate the check of current frequency on notifications. We can use last set frequency instead. * 7/8 - Make cpufreq->get of acpi_cpufreq work correctly again. There will be a patch in future that removes ACPI based support in speedstep-centrino in coming months. patch 8/8 Add support for IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSR and get the actual frequency from these MSRs and use it to determine the next frequency target in ondemand governor This patch: There is a bug in software coordination patch in acpi-cpufreq, due to which frequency will only be set on first CPU of any coordinated group.

2006-10-14ACPI: SCI interrupt source overrideKimball Murray
The Linux group at Stratus Technologies has come across an issue with SCI routing under ACPI. We were bitten by this when we made an x86_64 platform whose BIOS provides an Interrupt Source Override for the SCI itself. Apparently the override has no effect for the System Control Interrupt, and this appears to be because of the way the SCI is setup in the ACPI code. It does not handle the case where busirq != gsi. The code that sets up the SCI routing assumes that bus irq == global irq. So there is simply no provision for telling it otherwise. The attached patch provides this mechanism. This patch provided by David Bulkow, was tested on an i386 platform, which does not use the SCI override, and also on an x86_64 platform which does use an override.

2006-10-14ACPI: Processor native C-states using MWAITVenkatesh Pallipadi
Intel processors starting with the Core Duo support support processor native C-state using the MWAIT instruction. Refer: Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual http://www.intel.com/design/Pentium4/manuals/253668.htm Platform firmware exports the support for Native C-state to OS using ACPI _PDC and _CST methods. Refer: Intel Processor Vendor-Specific ACPI: Interface Specification http://www.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads/302223.htm With Processor Native C-state, we use 'MWAIT' instruction on the processor to enter different C-states (C1, C2, C3). We won't use the special IO ports to enter C-state and no SMM mode etc required to enter C-state. Overall this will mean better C-state support. One major advantage of using MWAIT for all C-states is, with this and "treat interrupt as break event" feature of MWAIT, we can now get accurate timing for the time spent in C1, C2, .. states.

2006-10-11[PATCH] epoll_pwait()Davide Libenzi
Implement the epoll_pwait system call, that extend the event wait mechanism with the same logic ppoll and pselect do. The definition of epoll_pwait is: int epoll_pwait(int epfd, struct epoll_event *events, int maxevents, int timeout, const sigset_t *sigmask, size_t sigsetsize); The difference between the vanilla epoll_wait and epoll_pwait is that the latter allows the caller to specify a signal mask to be set while waiting for events. Hence epoll_pwait will wait until either one monitored event, or an unmasked signal happen. If sigmask is NULL, the epoll_pwait system call will act exactly like epoll_wait.

2006-10-11[PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisationMel Gorman
Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-10-04[PATCH] msi: refactor and move the msi irq_chip into the arch codeEric W. Biederman
It turns out msi_ops was simply not enough to abstract the architecture specific details of msi. So I have moved the resposibility of constructing the struct irq_chip to the architectures, and have two architecture specific functions arch_setup_msi_irq, and arch_teardown_msi_irq. For simple architectures those functions can do all of the work. For architectures with platform dependencies they can call into the appropriate platform code. With this msi.c is finally free of assuming you have an apic, and this actually takes less code. The helpers for the architecture specific code are declared in the linux/msi.h to keep them separate from the msi functions used by drivers in linux/pci.h Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-10-04[PATCH] Initial generic hypertransport interrupt supportEric W. Biederman
This patch implements two functions ht_create_irq and ht_destroy_irq for use by drivers. Several other functions are implemented as helpers for arch specific irq_chip handlers. The driver for the card I tested this on isn't yet ready to be merged. However this code is and hypertransport irqs are in use in a few other places in the kernel. Not that any of this will get merged before 2.6.19 Because the ipath-ht400 is slightly out of spec this code will need to be generalized to work there. I think all of the powerpc uses are for a plain interrupt controller in a chipset so support for native hypertransport devices is a little less interesting. However I think this is a half way decent model on how to separate arch specific and generic helper code, and I think this is a functional model of how to get the architecture dependencies out of the msi code.
