2009-12-12powerpc: gamecube/wii: early debugging using usbgeckoAlbert Herranz
Add support for using the USB Gecko adapter as an early debugging console on the Nintendo GameCube and Wii video game consoles. The USB Gecko is a 3rd party memory card interface adapter that provides a EXI (External Interface) to USB serial converter.

2009-03-11powerpc/udbg: Fix lost byte during console handover; change LFCR to CRLFAndrew Klossner
When the console is on a serial port to be driven by serial8250, a character can be lost from the end of the first line in the two-line sequence serial8250.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xe0004500 (irq = 42) is a 16550A console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [ttyS0] This happens because udbg_puts or udbg_write stuff the last byte of the line into the Tx FIFO and return, whereupon the serial8250 initialization code immediately empties that FIFO. The fix: udbg_puts and udbg_write now wait for the Tx FIFO to clear before returning. This delays the system by one additional serial frame time for each line written by udbg, but the effect is not noticeable, a cumulative 17 milliseconds for 200 lines of early printk output at 115200 baud. Also, the routines in udbg_16550.c now emit CRLF instead of LFCR. Linux makes a point of emitting CRLF because, when serial output is captured to a file, LFCR sequences can confuse text editors.

2008-04-24[POWERPC] Mark udbg console as CON_ANYTIME, ie. callable early in bootMichael Ellerman
The udbg console should be safe to call basically at any time after boot. It does not need any per-cpu resources or for the cpu to be online, as long as there is a udbg_putc routine hooked up it should work. So mark it as CON_ANYTIME.

2008-04-24[POWERPC] Set udbg_console index to 0Michael Ellerman
Because the udbg_console has CON_ENABLED set, it's possible that when we register it with the console code the index won't be set. This leads to slightly confusing boot messages like: [ 0.000000] console [udbg-1] enabled We could remove CON_ENABLED, but we don't want to do that, we always want the udbg console to be activated, even if the user specified some other console on the command line. The simplest fix seems to be just to set the index to 0 by hand. There is no issue with duplicate udbg consoles, as we guard against registering multiple times in register_early_udbg_console().

2007-12-11[POWERPC] Early debug forces console log level to maxBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This makes the early debug option force the console loglevel to the max. The early debug option is meant to catch messages very early in the kernel boot process, in many cases, before the kernel has a chance to parse the "debug" command line argument. Thus it makes sense when CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG is set, to force the console log level to the max at boot time.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Fix console output getting dropped on platforms without udbg_putcMilton Miller
Previously, registering this early console would just result in dropping early buffered printk output until a udbg_putc was registered. However, commit 69331af79cf29e26d1231152a172a1a10c2df511 clears the CON_PRINTBUFFER flag on the main console when a CON_BOOT (early) console has been registered, resulting in the buffered messages never being displayed to the user. This fixes the problem by making sure we don't register udbg_console on platforms that don't implement udbg_putc. Signed-off-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Acked-by: Mark A.

2007-05-08Fixes and cleanups for earlyprintk aka boot consoleGerd Hoffmann
The console subsystem already has an idea of a boot console, using the CON_BOOT flag. The implementation has some flaws though. The major problem is that presence of a boot console makes register_console() ignore any other console devices (unless explicitly specified on the kernel command line). This patch fixes the console selection code to *not* consider a boot console a full-featured one, so the first non-boot console registering will become the default console instead. This way the unregister call for the boot console in the register_console() function actually triggers and the handover from the boot console to the real console device works smoothly. Added a printk for the handover, so you know which console device the output goes to when the boot console stops printing messages. The disable_early_printk() call is obsolete with that patch, explicitly disabling the early console isn't needed any more as it works automagically with that patch. I've walked through the tree, dropped all disable_early_printk() instances found below arch/ and tagged the consoles with CON_BOOT if needed. The code is tested on x86, sh (thanks to Paul) and mips (thanks to Ralf). Changes to last version: Rediffed against -rc3, adapted to mips cleanups by Ralf, fixed "udbg-immortal" cmd line arg on powerpc.

2007-02-14[POWERPC] Use udbg_early_init() on ppc32David Gibson
udbg_early_init() is a function used on 64 bit systems, which initializes whichever early udbg backend is configured. This function is not called on 32-bit, however if btext early debug is enabled it does have an explicit, inline, #ifdef-ed assignment performing analagous initialization. This patch makes things more uniform by folding the btext initialization as an option into udbg_early_init() and calling that from the 32-bit setup path.

2006-06-09[PATCH] powerpc: Add udbg-immortal kernel optionBenjamin Herrenschmidt
When debugging early kernel crashes that happen after console_init() and before a proper console driver takes over, we often have to go hack into udbg.c to prevent it from unregistering so we can "see" what is happening. This patch adds a kernel command line option "udbg-immortal" instead to avoid having to modify the kernel.

2006-01-11[PATCH] powerpc: Make early debugging configurable via KconfigMichael Ellerman
This patch adds Kconfig entries to control the early debugging options, currently in setup_64.c. Doing this via Kconfig rather than #defines means you can have one source tree, which is buildable for multiple platforms - and you can enable the correct early debug option for each platform via .config. I made udbg_early_init() a static inline because otherwise GCC is to daft to optimise it away when debugging is off. Now that we have udbg_init_rtas() we can make call_rtas_display_status* static.

This adds some very basic support for the new machines, including the Quad G5 (tested), and other new dual core based machines and iMac G5 iSight (untested). This is still experimental ! There is no thermal control yet, there is no proper handing of MSIs, etc.. but it boots, I have all 4 cores up on my machine. Compared to the previous version of this patch, this one adds DART IOMMU support for the U4 chipset and thus should work fine on setups with more than 2Gb of RAM.

2006-01-09[PATCH] powerpc: udbg updatesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The udbg low level io layer has an issue with udbg_getc() returning a char (unsigned on ppc) instead of an int, thus the -1 if you had no available input device could end up turned into 0xff, filling your display with bogus characters. This fixes it, along with adding a little blob to xmon to do a delay before exiting when getting an EOF and fixing the detection of ADB keyboards in udbg_adb.c Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] powerpc: Unify udbg (#2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch unifies udbg for both ppc32 and ppc64 when building the merged achitecture. xmon now has a single "back end". The powermac udbg stuff gets enriched with some ADB capabilities and btext output. In addition, the early_init callback is now called on ppc32 as well, approx. in the same order as ppc64 regarding device-tree manipulations. The init sequences of ppc32 and ppc64 are getting closer, I'll unify them in a later patch. For now, you can force udbg to the scc using "sccdbg" or to btext using "btextdbg" on powermacs. I'll implement a cleaner way of forcing udbg output to something else than the autodetected OF output device in a later patch.

2006-01-09[PATCH] powerpc: serial port discovery (#2)Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This moves the discovery of legacy serial ports to a separate file, makes it common to ppc32 and ppc64, and reworks it to use the new OF address translators to get to the ports early. This new version can also detect some PCI serial cards using legacy chips and will probably match those discovered port with the default console choice. Only ppc64 gets udbg still yet, unifying udbg isn't finished yet. It also adds some speed-probing code to udbg so that the default console can come up at the same speed it was set to by the firmware.

2005-11-11[PATCH] powerpc: Move udbg code to arch/powerpcDavid Gibson
Since the udbg code in ppc64 has no ppc32 equivalent, move it straight over into arch/powerpc (and include/asm-powerpc for udbg.h). In time, we probably want to meld the various bits and pieces of 32-bit early debugging code into udbg, but for now only include it on CONFIG_PPC64=y builds. The only change during the move is to standardise the protecting #ifdef/#define in udbg.h, and move its banner comment above the initial #ifdef (which seems to be normal practice). Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64). Built for 32bit multiplatform (ARCH=powerpc).
