2006-02-28[PATCH] cfq-iosched: slice expiry fixupsJens Axboe
During testing of SLES10, we encountered a hang in the CFQ io scheduler. Turns out the deferred slice expiry logic is buggy, so remove that for now. We could be left with an idle queue that would never wake up. So kill that logic, always expire immediately. Also fix a potential timer race condition. Patch looks bigger than it is, because it moves a function. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-02-28[PATCH] powerpc/iseries: Fix double phys_to_abs bug in htab_bolt_mappingMichael Ellerman
Before the merge I updated create_pte_mapping() to work for iSeries, by calling iSeries_hpte_bolt_or_insert. (4c55130b2aa93370f1bf52d2304394e91cf8ee39) Later we changed iSeries_hpte_insert to cope with the bolting case, and called that instead from create_pte_mapping() (which was renamed to htab_bolt_mapping) (3c726f8dee6f55e96475574e9f645327e461884c). Unfortunately that change introduced a subtle bug, where we pass an absolute address to iSeries_hpte_insert() where it expects a physical address. This leads to us calling phys_to_abs() twice on the physical address, which is seriously bogus. This only causes a problem if the absolute address from the first translation can be looked up again in the chunk_map, which depends on the size and layout of memory. I've seen it fail on one box, but not others. The minimal fix is to pass the physical address to iSeries_hpte_insert(). For 2.6.17 we should make phys_to_abs() BUG if we try to double-translate an address. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-02-28[PATCH] powerpc: fix dynamic PCI probe regressionJohn Rose
Some hotplug driver functions were migrated to the kernel for use by EEH in commit 2bf6a8fa21570f37fd1789610da30f70a05ac5e3. Previously, the PCI Hotplug module had been changed to use the new OFDT-based PCI probe when appropriate: 5fa80fcdca9d20d30c9ecec30d4dbff4ed93a5c6 When rpaphp_pci_config_slot() was moved from the rpaphp driver to the new kernel function pcibios_add_pci_devices(), the OFDT-based probe stuff was dropped. This patch restores it. Signed-off-by: John Rose <johnrose@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-02-27[IPSEC]: Kill post_input hook and do NAT-T in esp_input directlyHerbert Xu
The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which we ought to do. However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the checksums without using this post_input stuff at all. The crucial point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered when adjusting checksums. What's more, the checksum adjustment comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums. We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :) When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum is currently unused. All we have to do is to make that the checksum adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures! I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately woven into the sec_path stuff. We can kill them later too.

2006-02-27[MIPS] SMP: Fix initialization order bug.Ralf Baechle
A recent change requires cpu_possible_map to be initialized before smp_sched_init() but most MIPS platforms were initializing their processors in the prom_prepare_cpus callback of smp_prepare_cpus. The simple fix of calling prom_prepare_cpus from one of the earlier SMP initialization hooks doesn't work well either since IPIs may require init_IRQ() to have completed, so bit the bullet and split prom_prepare_cpus into two initialization functions, plat_smp_setup which is called early from setup_arch and plat_prepare_cpus called where prom_prepare_cpus used to be called.

2006-02-26[PATCH] fix voyager after topology.c moveJames Bottomley
Commit 9c869edac591977314323a4eaad5f7633fca684f broke voyager again rather subtly because it already had its own topology exporting functions, so now each CPU gets registered twice. I think we can actually use the generic ones, so I don't propose reverting it. The attached should eliminate the voyager topology functions in favour of the generic ones. I also added a define to ensure voyager is never hotplug CPU (we don't have the support in the SMP harness).

2006-02-26[PATCH] x86_64: Better ATI timer fixAndi Kleen
The previous experiment for using apicmaintimer on ATI systems didn't work out very well. In particular laptops with C2/C3 support often don't let it tick during idle, which makes it useless. There were also some other bugs that made the apicmaintimer often not used at all. I tried some other experiments - running timer over RTC and some other things but they didn't really work well neither. I rechecked the specs now and it turns out this simple change is actually enough to avoid the double ticks on the ATI systems. We just turn off IRQ 0 in the 8254 and only route it directly using the IO-APIC. I tested it on a few ATI systems and it worked there. In fact it worked on all chipsets (NVidia, Intel, AMD, ATI) I tried it on. According to the ACPI spec routing should always work through the IO-APIC so I think it's the correct thing to do anyways (and most of the old gunk in check_timer should be thrown away for x86-64). But for 2.6.16 it's best to do a fairly minimal change: - Use the known to be working everywhere-but-ATI IRQ0 both over 8254 and IO-APIC setup everywhere - Except on ATI disable IRQ0 in the 8254 - Remove the code to select apicmaintimer on ATI chipsets - Add some boot options to allow to override this (just paranoia) In 2.6.17 I hope to switch the default over to this for everybody.

2006-02-26[PATCH] x86_64: Move the SMP time selection earlierAndi Kleen
SMP time selection originally ran after all CPUs were brought up because it needed to know the number of CPUs to decide if it needs an MP safe timer or not. This is not needed anymore because we know present CPUs early. This fixes a couple of problems: - apicmaintimer didn't always work because it relied on state that was set up time_init_gtod too late. - The output for the used timer in early kernel log was misleading because time_init_gtod could actually change it later. Now always print the final timer choice Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

It didn't set up the CPU possible map early enough, so the option didn't actually work. Noticed by Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-02-26[PATCH] x86_64: Disable ACPI blacklist by year for now on x86-64Andi Kleen
ACPI is initialized very early on x86-64, before the DMI code is initialized. This means it would often discover a 0 year and then turn off ACPI because it thought the BIOS was too old. Some systems don't boot without ACPI so this was a problem. I have a full fix by adding new very early DMI detection, but it needs more testing before it can be merged. For 2.6.16 let's just turn the check off. It never made much sense anyways because there are no x86-64 systems older than 2002 or so and they generally all have working ACPI.

2006-02-26[PATCH] x86-64/i386: Use common X86_PM_TIMER option and make it EMBEDDEDAndi Kleen
This makes x86-64 use the common X86_PM_TIMER Kconfig entry in drivers/acpi And since PM timer is needed for correct timing on a lot of systems now (e.g. AMD dual cores) and we often get bug reports from people who forgot to set it make it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. x86-64 had this change before and it's a good thing. I also fixed the description slightly to make this more clear. Cc: len.brown@intel.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
