2005-10-19[PATCH] swiotlb: make sure initial DMA allocations really are in DMA memoryYasunori Goto
This introduces a limit parameter to the core bootmem allocator; The new parameter indicates that physical memory allocated by the bootmem allocator should be within the requested limit. We also introduce alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit, alloc_bootmem_node_limit, alloc_bootmem_low_pages_node_limit apis, but alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit is the only api used for swiotlb. The existing alloc_bootmem_low_pages() api could instead have been changed and made to pass right limit to the core allocator. But that would make the patch more intrusive for 2.6.14, as other arches use alloc_bootmem_low_pages(). We may be done that post 2.6.14 as a cleanup. With this, swiotlb gets memory within 4G for both x86_64 and ia64 arches.

2005-09-14[LIB]: Consolidate _atomic_dec_and_lock()David S. Miller
Several implementations were essentialy a common piece of C code using the cmpxchg() macro. Put the implementation in one spot that everyone can share, and convert sparc64 over to using this. Alpha is the lone arch-specific implementation, which codes up a special fast path for the common case in order to avoid GP reloading which a pure C version would require. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-09-14[IA64] more robust zx1/sx1000 machvec supportAlex Williamson
Machine vector selection has always been a bit of a hack given how early in system boot it needs to be done. Services like ACPI namespace are not available and there are non-trivial problems to moving them to early boot. However, there's no reason we can't change to a different machvec later in boot when the services we need are available. By adding a entry point for later initialization of the swiotlb, we can add an error path for the hpzx1 machevec initialization and fall back to the DIG machine vector if IOMMU hardware isn't found in the system. Since ia64 uses 4GB for zone DMA (no ISA support), it's trivial to allocate a contiguous range from the slab for bounce buffer usage.

2005-09-07[IA64] make exception handler in copy_user more robustChen, Kenneth W
The exception handler in copy user always expects fault occurs only on user space address and the fall back recovery code is written with that very assumption in mind. Recent source code inspection revealed that while it worked splendid and to the expectation under normal circumstances, It broke down under unexpected condition where some address calculation might go outside the legal address range the original copy_user was called for. This patch is to make copy_user exception handler more robust and to prevent potential memory corruption.

2005-08-26[IA64] Delete erroneous copy_page.o in global lib-y listKenneth Chen
copy_page.o appeared twice in arch/ia64/lib/Makefile. The one in global lib-y is wrong where it should be just in lib-$(CONFIG_ITANIUM). Both copy_page.o and copy_page_mck.o are build for Itanium2 processor and the link order will pick up the low performing copy_page function (originally written for itanium processor). In this case, we really want the copy_page_mck.o for optimized version. Signed-off-by: Kenneth Chen <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-08-18[IA64, X86_64] fix swiotlb sizingAlex Williamson
Fix swiotlb sizing to match what the comments and the kernel parameters documentation indicate. Given a default 16k page size kernel (ia64) and a 2k swiotlb page size, we're off by a multiple of 8 trying to size the swiotlb. When specified on the boot line, the swiotlb is made 8x bigger than requested. When left to the default value, it's 8x smaller than the comments indicate. For x86_64 the multiplier would be 2x. The patch below fixes this. Now, what's a good default swiotlb size? Apparently we don't really need 64MB.

2005-07-12[IA64] improve flush_icache_range()Zoltan Menyhart
Check with PAL to see what the i-cache line size is for each level of the cache, and so use the correct stride when flushing the cache. Acked-by: David Mosberger Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2005-05-03[IA64] use fc.i for fluch_icache_range()David Mosberger-Tang
This is a small patch to switch fluch_icache_range() to use fc.i instead of fc. This would save time on processors which can establish i-cache coherency without flushing the cache-line out to memory (not that any current processors do). On existing processors, fc.i behaves like fc. The only caveat is that very old assemblers may not know about fc.i yet.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
