Wire up *at syscalls.

2006-04-28[PATCH] powerpc: Use check_legacy_ioport() on ppc32 too.David Woodhouse
Some people report that we die on some Macs when we are expecting to catch machine checks after poking at some random I/O address. I'd seen it happen on my dual G4 with serial ports until we fixed those to use OF, but now other users are reporting it with i8042.

2006-04-28[PATCH] powerpc64: Fix loading of modules without a .toc sectionAlan Modra
Normally, ppc64 module .ko files contain a table-of-contents (.toc) section, but if the module doesn't reference any static or external data or external procedures, it is possible for gcc/binutils to generate a .ko that doesn't have a .toc. Currently the module loader refuses to load such a module, since it needs the address of the .toc section to use in relocations. This patch fixes the problem by using the address of the .stubs section instead, which is an acceptable substitute in this situation. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-04-28[PATCH] powerpc: Fix pagetable bloat for hugepagesDavid Gibson
At present, ARCH=powerpc kernels can waste considerable space in pagetables when making large hugepage mappings. Hugepage PTEs go in PMD pages, but each PMD page maps 256M and so contains only 16 hugepage PTEs (128 bytes of data), but takes up a 1024 byte allocation. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES enabled (64k base page size), the situation is worse. Now hugepage PTEs are at the PTE page level (also mapping 256M), so we store 16 hugepage PTEs in a 64k allocation. The PowerPC MMU already means that any 256M region is either all hugepage, or all normal pages. Thus, with some care, we can use a different allocation for the hugepage PTE tables and only allocate the 128 bytes necessary. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition of notifier_call.

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the definition of notifier_block data structure. It is incorrect as the data structure should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations).

2006-04-26[PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe
sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice() moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead. This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network receive support as well.

2006-04-22[PATCH] powerpc/pseries: clear PCI failure counter if no new failuresLinas Vepstas
The current PCI error recovery system keeps track of the number of PCI card resets, and refuses to bring a card back up if this number is too large. The goal of doing this was to avoid an infinite loop of resets if a card is obviously dead. However, if the failures are rare, but the machine has a high uptime, this mechanism might still be triggered; this is too harsh. This patch will avoids this problem by decrementing the fail count after an hour. Thus, as long as a pci card BSOD's less than 6 times an hour, it will continue to be reset indefinitely. If it's failure rate is greater than that, it will be taken off-line permanently. This patch is larger than it might otherwise be because it changes indentation by removing a pointless while-loop. The while loop is not needed, as the handler is invoked once fo each event (by schedule_work()); the loop is leftover cruft from an earlier implementation.

2006-04-22[PATCH] powerpc: clear IPIs on kdumpHaren Myneni
In some crash scenarios, the kexec CPU is not responding to an IPI sent by secondary CPU after init thread is forked, causing the system to drop into xmon during kdump boot. This problem can be reproduced each time when the debugger is enabled and soft-reset is used to invoke kdump boot. The first CPU sends an IPI - setting the IPI priority for all secondary cpus (xics_cause_ipi()). But some CPUs will enter into the xmon via soft-reset, i.e, not executing xics_ipi_action(). Hence, IPI is not cleared. When exited from the debugger, one of these CPUs could become the primary kexec CPU. Since the IPI is not cleared, causing this issue in kdump boot. This patch clears and EOI IPI for kexec CPU as well before the kdump boot started. Signed-off-by: Haren Myneni <haren@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-04-22[PATCH] powerpc: Disable and EOI interrupts in machine_crash_shutdown()Michael Ellerman
We've seen several bugs caused by interrupt weirdness in the kdump kernel. Panicking from an interrupt handler means we fail to EOI the interrupt, and so the second kernel never gets that interrupt ever again. We also see hangs on JS20 where we take interrupts in the second kernel early during boot. This patch fixes both those problems, and although it adds more code to the crash path I think it is the best solution.

2006-04-21[PATCH] powerpc: Lower threshold for DART enablement to 1GBOlof Johansson
Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting 30-bit DMA addresses. Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good. Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O as well as over NFS). iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

2006-04-18powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap modePaul Mackerras
We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-04-13[PATCH] spufs: fix context-switch decrementer codeJordi Caubet

When restoring the 'decrementer', (Step 34) decrementer seems to be adjusted with the number of cycles th= at a spu thread has not been running. In that code it is missing a substract ('-') because 'delta_time' is assigned a not substracted(see bellow).

2006-04-11[PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFTYasunori Goto
Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5 NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy. SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's number. This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary. On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2 config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It would be simpler.
