2008-03-20[POWERPC] Hide resources on Axon PCIE root complex nodesMichael Ellerman
The PCI bridge representing the PCIE root complex on Axon, contains device BARs for a memory range and ROM that define inbound accesses. This confuses the kernel resource management code -- the resources need to be hidden when Axon is a host bridge.

2008-03-20[POWERPC] Fix cell IOMMU code to cope with empty dma-ranges and non-PCI devicesMichael Ellerman
The cell IOMMU code to parse the dma-ranges properties, used for the fixed mapping, was broken in two ways for some devices. Firstly it didn't cope with empty dma-ranges properties. An empty property implies no translation so can be safely skipped. The code also wrongly assumed it would be looking at PCI devices, and hard coded the number of address and size cells.

The wrapper script didn't have entries for the TQM8540 board and the SBC8548 or SBC8560 boards. I've assumed that the TQM8540 console is 8250 based and not CPM based by looking at its defconfig. There was also a trailing * on the TQM8555 entry that I removed too.

2008-03-20[POWERPC] Fix PMU + soft interrupt disable bugAnton Blanchard
Since the PMU is an NMI now, it can come at any time we are only soft disabled. We must hard disable around the two places we allow the kernel stack SLB and r1 to go out of sync. Otherwise the PMU exception can force a kernel stack SLB into another slot, which can lead to it getting evicted, which can lead to a nasty unrecoverable SLB miss in the exception entry code.

2008-03-20[POWERPC] user_regset PTRACE_SETREGS regression fixRoland McGrath
The PTRACE_SETREGS request was only recently added on powerpc, and gdb does not use it. So it slipped through without getting all the testing it should have had. The user_regset changes had a simple bug in storing to all of the 32-bit general registers block on 64-bit kernels. This bug only comes up with PTRACE_SETREGS, not PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS. It causes a BUG_ON to hit, so this fix needs to go in ASAP. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Commit 721fdf34167580ff98263c74cead8871d76936e6 introduced a subtle bug by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task. Probably the result of a trap in real mode while calling firmware. Also do other misc clean ups.

2008-03-13[POWERPC] Fix large hash table allocation on Cell bladesMichael Ellerman
My recent hack to allocate the hash table under 1GB on cell was poorly tested, *cough*. It turns out on blades with large amounts of memory we fail to allocate the hash table at all. This is because RTAS has been instantiated just below 768MB, and 0-x MB are used by the kernel, leaving no areas that are both large enough and also naturally-aligned. For the cell IOMMU hack the page tables must be under 2GB, so use that as the limit instead. This has been tested on real hardware and boots happily.

2008-03-13[POWERPC] Fix bogus test for unassigned PCI resourcesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
A bogus test for unassigned resources that came from our 32-bit PCI code ended up being "merged" by my previous patch series, breaking some 64-bit setups where devices have legal resources ending at 0xffffffff. This fixes it by completely changing the test. We now test for res->start == 0, as the generic code expects, and we also only do so on platforms that don't have the PPC_PCI_PROBE_ONLY flag set, as there are cases of pSeries and iSeries where it could be a valid value and those can't reassign devices.

2008-03-11x86: remove quicklistsThomas Gleixner
quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86, as documented at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991 the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as: Quicklists: 1194304 kB given how much trouble this code has caused historically, and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86 (years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

2008-03-11x86: ia32 syscall restart fixRoland McGrath
The code to restart syscalls after signals depends on checking for a negative orig_ax, and for particular negative -ERESTART* values in ax. These fields are 64 bits and for a 32-bit task they get zero-extended. The syscall restart behavior is lost, a regression from a native 32-bit kernel and from 64-bit tasks' behavior. This patch fixes the problem by doing sign-extension where it matters. For orig_ax, the only time the value should be -1 but winds up as 0x0ffffffff is via a 32-bit ptrace call. So the patch changes ptrace to sign-extend the 32-bit orig_eax value when it's stored; it doesn't change the checks on orig_ax, though it uses the new current_syscall() inline to better document the subtle importance of the used of signedness there. The ax value is stored a lot of ways and it seems hard to get them all sign-extended at their origins. So for that, we use the current_syscall_ret() to sign-extend it only for 32-bit tasks at the time of the -ERESTART* comparisons.

2008-03-11[POWERPC] spufs: fix rescheduling of non-runnable contextsJeremy Kerr
At present, we can hit the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info by reading the regs file of a context between two calls to spu_run. The spu_release_saved called by spufs_regs_read() is resulting in the (now non-runnable) context being placed back on the run queue, so the next call to spu_run ends up in the bug condition. This change uses the SPU_SCHED_SPU_RUN flag to only reschedule a context if it's still in spu_run(). Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

2008-03-10fix BIOS PCI config cycle buglet causing ACPI boot regressionIngo Molnar
I figured out another ACPI related regression today. randconfig testing triggered an early boot-time hang on a laptop of mine (32-bit x86, config attached) - the screen was scrolling ACPI AML exceptions [with no serial port and no early debugging available]. v2.6.24 works fine on that laptop with the same .config, so after a few hours of bisection (had to restart it 3 times - other regressions interacted), it honed in on this commit: | 10270d4838bdc493781f5a1cf2e90e9c34c9142f is first bad commit | | Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org> | Date: Wed Feb 13 09:56:14 2008 -0800 | | acpi: fix acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() misuse of raw_pci_read() reverting this commit ontop of -rc5 gave a correctly booting kernel. But this commit fixes a real bug so the real question is, why did it break the bootup? After quite some head-scratching, the following change stood out: - pci_id->bus = tu8; + pci_id->bus = val; pci_id->bus is defined as u16: struct acpi_pci_id { u16 segment; u16 bus; ... and 'tu8' changed from u8 to u32. So previously we'd unconditionally mask the return value of acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() (raw_pci_read()) to 8 bits, but now we just trust whatever comes back from the PCI access routines and only crop it to 16 bits. But if the high 8 bits of that result contains any noise then we'll write that into ACPI's PCI ID descriptor and confuse the heck out of the rest of ACPI. So lets check the PCI-BIOS code on that theory. We have this codepath for 8-bit accesses (arch/x86/pci/pcbios.c:pci_bios_read()): switch (len) { case 1: __asm__("lcall *(%%esi); cld\n\t" "jc 1f\n\t" "xor %%ah, %%ah\n" "1:" : "=c" (*value), "=a" (result) : "1" (PCIBIOS_READ_CONFIG_BYTE), "b" (bx), "D" ((long)reg), "S" (&pci_indirect)); Aha! The "=a" output constraint puts the full 32 bits of EAX into *value. But if the BIOS's routines set any of the high bits to nonzero, we'll return a value with more set in it than intended. The other, more common PCI access methods (v1 and v2 PCI reads) clear out the high bits already, for example pci_conf1_read() does: switch (len) { case 1: *value = inb(0xCFC + (reg & 3)); which explicitly converts the return byte up to 32 bits and zero-extends it. So zero-extending the result in the PCI-BIOS read routine fixes the regression on my laptop. ( It might fix some other long-standing issues we had with PCI-BIOS during the past decade ... ) Both 8-bit and 16-bit accesses were buggy.

2008-03-11lguest: Revert 1ce70c4fac3c3954bd48c035f448793867592bc0, fix real problem.Rusty Russell
Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest bug, and indeed it wasn't. The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables for each Guest). Commit 37cc8d7f963ba2deec29c9b68716944516a3244f introduced this behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug. The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the early exit path of guest_set_pmd().
