2006-09-26[PATCH] PM: Add pm_trace switchRafael J. Wysocki
Add the pm_trace attribute in /sys/power which has to be explicitly set to one to really enable the "PM tracing" code compiled in when CONFIG_PM_TRACE is set (which modifies the machine's CMOS clock in unpredictable ways).

2006-09-26[PATCH] swsusp: Use memory bitmaps during resumeRafael J. Wysocki
Make swsusp use memory bitmaps to store its internal information during the resume phase of the suspend-resume cycle. If the pfns of saveable pages are saved during the suspend phase instead of the kernel virtual addresses of these pages, we can use them during the resume phase directly to set the corresponding bits in a memory bitmap. Then, this bitmap is used to mark the page frames corresponding to the pages that were saveable before the suspend (aka "unsafe" page frames). Next, we allocate as many page frames as needed to store the entire suspend image and make sure that there will be some extra free "safe" page frames for the list of PBEs constructed later. Subsequently, the image is loaded and, if possible, the data loaded from it are written into their "original" page frames (ie. the ones they had occupied before the suspend). The image data that cannot be written into their "original" page frames are loaded into "safe" page frames and their "original" kernel virtual addresses, as well as the addresses of the "safe" pages containing their copies, are stored in a list of PBEs. Finally, the list of PBEs is used to copy the remaining image data into their "original" page frames (this is done atomically, by the architecture-dependent parts of swsusp). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-09-26[PATCH] swsusp: Introduce memory bitmapsRafael J. Wysocki
Introduce the memory bitmap data structure and make swsusp use in the suspend phase. The current swsusp's internal data structure is not very efficient from the memory usage point of view, so it seems reasonable to replace it with a data structure that will require less memory, such as a pair of bitmaps. The idea is to use bitmaps that may be allocated as sets of individual pages, so that we can avoid making allocations of order greater than 0. For this reason the memory bitmap structure consists of several linked lists of objects that contain pointers to memory pages with the actual bitmap data. Still, for a typical system all of these lists fit in a single page, so it's reasonable to introduce an additional mechanism allowing us to allocate all of them efficiently without sacrificing the generality of the design. This is done with the help of the chain_allocator structure and associated functions. We need to use two memory bitmaps during the suspend phase of the suspend-resume cycle. One of them is necessary for marking the saveable pages, and the second is used to mark the pages in which to store the copies of them (aka image pages). First, the bitmaps are created and we allocate as many image pages as needed (the corresponding bits in the second bitmap are set as soon as the pages are allocated). Second, the bits corresponding to the saveable pages are set in the first bitmap and the saveable pages are copied to the image pages. Finally, the first bitmap is used to save the kernel virtual addresses of the saveable pages and the second one is used to save the contents of the image pages. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Disable CPU hotplug during suspendRafael J. Wysocki
The current suspend code has to be run on one CPU, so we use the CPU hotplug to take the non-boot CPUs offline on SMP machines. However, we should also make sure that these CPUs will not be enabled by someone else after we have disabled them. The functions disable_nonboot_cpus() and enable_nonboot_cpus() are moved to kernel/cpu.c, because they now refer to some stuff in there that should better be static. Also it's better if disable_nonboot_cpus() returns an error instead of panicking if something goes wrong, and enable_nonboot_cpus() has no reason to panic(), because the CPUs may have been enabled by the userland before it tries to take them online.

2006-09-26[PATCH] x86: enable VMSPLIT for highmem kernelsDave Hansen
The current VMSPLIT Kconfig option is disabled whenever highmem is on. This is a bit screwy because the people who need to change VMSPLIT the most tend to be the ones with highmem and constrained lowmem. So, remove the highmem dependency. But, re-include the dependency for the "full 1GB of lowmem" option. You can't have the full 1GB of lowmem and highmem because of the need for the vmalloc(), kmap(), etc... areas. I thought there would be at least a bit of tweaking to do to get it to work, but everything seems OK.

2006-09-26[PATCH] Translate asm version of ELFNOTE macro into preprocessor macroIan Campbell
I've come across some problems with the assembly version of the ELFNOTE macro currently in -mm. (in x86-put-note-sections-into-a-pt_note-segment-in-vmlinux.patch) The first is that older gas does not support :varargs in .macro definitions (in my testing 2.17 does while 2.15 does not, I don't know when it became supported). The Changes file says binutils >= 2.12 so I think we need to avoid using it. There are no other uses in mainline or -mm. Old gas appears to just ignore it so you get "too many arguments" type errors. Secondly it seems that passing strings as arguments to assembler macros is broken without varargs. It looks like they get unquoted or each character is treated as a separate argument or something and this causes all manner of grief. I think this is because of the use of -traditional when compiling assembly files. Therefore I have translated the assembler macro into a pre-processor macro. I added the desctype as a separate argument instead of including it with the descdata as the previous version did since -traditional means the ELFNOTE definition after the #else needs to have the same number of arguments (I think so anyway, the -traditional CPP semantics are pretty fscking strange!). With this patch I am able to define elfnotes in assembly like this with both old and new assemblers. ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_OS, .asciz, "linux") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_VERSION, .asciz, "2.6") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_XEN_VERSION, .asciz, "xen-3.0") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_VIRT_BASE, .long, __PAGE_OFFSET) Which seems reasonable enough.

2006-09-26[PATCH] x86: put .note.* sections into a PT_NOTE segment in vmlinuxJeremy Fitzhardinge
This patch will pack any .note.* section into a PT_NOTE segment in the output file. To do this, we tell ld that we need a PT_NOTE segment. This requires us to start explicitly mapping sections to segments, so we also need to explicitly create PT_LOAD segments for text and data, and map the sections to them appropriately. Fortunately, each section will default to its previous section's segment, so it doesn't take many changes to vmlinux.lds.S. This only changes i386 for now, but I presume the corresponding changes for other architectures will be as simple. This change also adds <linux/elfnote.h>, which defines C and Assembler macros for actually creating ELF notes. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Cc: Eric W.

2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: show_registers(): try harder to print failing codeChuck Ebbert
show_registers() tries to dump failing code starting 43 bytes before the offending instruction, but this address can be bad, for example in a device driver where the failing instruction is less than 43 bytes from the start of the driver's code. When that happens, try to dump code starting at the failing instruction instead of printing no code at all.

2006-09-26[PATCH] hpet rtc emulation: add watchdog timerClemens Ladisch
To prevent the emulated RTC timer from stopping when interrupts are delayed for too long, disable interrupts around all of the register initialization, and check that the interrupt handler did not schedule the next interrupt in the past.

2006-09-26[PATCH] AVR32 MTD: AT49BV6416 platform device for ATSTK1000Haavard Skinnemoen
FRegister a platform device for the AT49BV6416 NOR flash chip on the ATSTK1000 development board for use by the physmap MTD driver. The SMC timings are set up before the platform device is registered so that no board-specific mapping driver is necessary.

2006-09-26[PATCH] AVR32 MTD: Static Memory Controller driverHaavard Skinnemoen
This patchset adds the necessary drivers and infrastructure to access the external flash on the ATSTK1000 board through the MTD subsystem. With this stuff in place, it will be possible to use a jffs2 filesystem stored in the external flash as a root filesystem. It might also be possible to update the boot loader if you drop the write protection of partition 0. As suggested by David Woodhouse, I reworked the patches to use the physmap driver instead of introducing a separate mapping driver for the ATSTK1000. I've also cleaned up the hsmc header by removing useless comments and converting spaces to tabs (my headerfile generator needs some work.) Unfortunately, I couldn't unlock the flash in fixup_use_atmel_lock because the erase regions hadn't been set up yet, so I had to do it from cfi_amdstd_setup instead. This patch: This adds a simple API for configuring the static memory controller along with an implementation for the Atmel HSMC.

2006-09-26[PATCH] avr32 architectureHaavard Skinnemoen
This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000 CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board. AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power consumption and high code density. The AVR32 architecture is not binary compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures. The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture. It features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full Memory Management Unit. It also comes with a large set of integrated peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from Atmel. Full data sheet is available from http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918 including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for booting from SD card. Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for avr32-linux. This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
