2009-12-03x86, Calgary IOMMU quirk: Find nearest matching Calgary while walking up the ↵Darrick J. Wong
PCI tree On a multi-node x3950M2 system, there's a slight oddity in the PCI device tree for all secondary nodes: 30:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1) \-33:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01) \-34:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04) ...as compared to the primary node: 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1) \-01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02) 03:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01) \-04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04) In both nodes, the LSI RAID controller hangs off a CalIOC2 device, but on the secondary nodes, the BIOS hides the VGA device and substitutes the device tree ending with the disk controller. It would seem that Calgary devices don't necessarily appear at the top of the PCI tree, which means that the current code to find the Calgary IOMMU that goes with a particular device is buggy. Rather than walk all the way to the top of the PCI device tree and try to match bus number with Calgary descriptor, the code needs to examine each parent of the particular device; if it encounters a Calgary with a matching bus number, simply use that. Otherwise, we BUG() when the bus number of the Calgary doesn't match the bus number of whatever's at the top of the device tree. Extra note: This patch appears to work correctly for the x3950 that came before the x3950 M2. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Having run into the run-(boot-)time check a couple of times lately, I finally took time to find a build-time check so that one doesn't need to analyze the register/stack dump and resolve this (through manual lookup in vmlinux) to the offending construct. The assembler will emit a message like "Error: value of <num> too large for field of 1 bytes at <offset>", which while not pointing out the source location still makes analysis quite a bit easier.

2009-12-02x86, ioapic: Document another case when level irq is seen as an edgeSuresh Siddha
In the case when cpu goes offline, fixup_irqs() will forward any unhandled interrupt on the offlined cpu to the new cpu destination that is handling the corresponding interrupt. This interrupt forwarding is done via IPI's. Hence, in this case also level-triggered io-apic interrupt will be seen as an edge interrupt in the cpu's APIC IRR. Document this scenario in the code which handles this case by doing an explicit EOI to the io-apic to clear remote IRR of the io-apic RTE. Requested-by: Maciej W.

Some of the Intel ICH Specs (ICH2 to ICH5) documents the io-apic version as 0x2. This is an error with documentation and these ICH chips use io-apic's of version 0x20 and indeed has a working EOI register for the io-apic. Fix the EOI register detection mechanism to check for version 0x20 and beyond. And also, a platform can potentially have io-apic's with different versions. Make the EOI register check per io-apic.

2009-12-02x86, io-apic: Move the effort of clearing remoteIRR explicitly before ↵Maciej W. Rozycki
migrating the irq When the level-triggered interrupt is seen as an edge interrupt, we try to clear the remoteIRR explicitly (using either an io-apic eoi register when present or through the idea of changing trigger mode of the io-apic RTE to edge and then back to level). But this explicit try also needs to happen before we try to migrate the irq. Otherwise irq migration attempt will fail anyhow, as it postpones the irq migration to a later attempt when it sees the remoteIRR in the io-apic RTE still set. Signed-off-by: "Maciej W.

2009-12-01MIPS: Loongson: Switch from flatmem to sparsememWu Zhangjin
With flatmem hibernation for Loongson will fail, and there are also some other problems such as broken files when using NFS or CIFS / Samba. The config help of sparsemem says: "This option provides some potential performance benefits, along with decreased code complexity." So to avoid the potential problems of FLATMEM, we disable FLATMEM directly and use SPARSEMEM instead. Related email thread: http://groups.google.com/group/loongson-dev/browse_thread/thread/b6b65890ec2b0f24/feb43e5aa7f55d9b?show_docid=feb43e5aa7f55d9b Reported-by: Tatu Kilappa <tatu.kilappa@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@gmail.com> Patchwork: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/737/ Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Cc: zhangfx@lemote.com Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2009-12-01MIPS: Loongson: Disallow 4kB pagesWu Zhangjin
Currently, with PAGE_SIZE_4KB, the kernel for loongson will hang on: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! The possible reason is the cache aliases problem: Loongson 2F has 64kb, 4 way L1 Cache, the way size is 16kb, which is bigger then 4kb. so, If using 4kb page size, there is cache aliases problem. To avoid this kind of problem, extra cache flushing. The 2nd possible solution is 16kb page size which avoids cache aliases without the need for extra cache flushes. So we disable 4kB pages until the aliasing issue is solved.

2009-11-30Alpha: Rearrange thread info flags fixing two regressionsMichael Cree
The removal of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit a583f1b54249b "remove unused TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag," resulted in incorrect setting of the unaligned access control flags by the prctl syscall. The re-addition of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit d0420c83f39f "KEYS: Extend TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to (almost) all architectures [try #6]" further caused problems, namely incorrect operands to assembler code as evidenced by: AS arch/alpha/kernel/entry.o arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S: Assembler messages: arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S:326: Warning: operand out of range (0x0000000000000406 is not between 0x0000000000000000 and 0x00000000000000ff) Both regressions fixed by (1) rearranging TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag to be in lower 8 bits of the thread info flags, and (2) making sure that ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT matches the rearrangement of the thread info flags.

2009-12-01powerpc: Fix DEBUG_HIGHMEM build break from d4515646699Becky Bruce
Code was added to mm/higmem.c that depends on several kmap types that powerpc does not support. We add dummy invalid definitions for KM_NMI, KM_NM_PTE, and KM_IRQ_PTE. According to list discussion, this fix should not be needed anymore starting with 2.6.33. The code is commented to this effect so hopefully we will remember to remove this.
