2009-06-09powerpc: Set init_bootmem_done on NUMA platforms as wellBenjamin Herrenschmidt
For some obscure reason, we only set init_bootmem_done after initializing bootmem when NUMA isn't enabled. We even document this next to the declaration of that global in system.h which of course I didn't read before I had to debug why some WIP code wasn't working properly... This patch changes it so that we always set it after bootmem is initialized which should have always been the case... go figure ! Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-09powerpc/mm: Fix a AB->BA deadlock scenario with nohash MMU context lockBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The MMU context_lock can be taken from switch_mm() while the rq->lock is held. The rq->lock can also be taken from interrupts, thus if we get interrupted in destroy_context() with the context lock held and that interrupt tries to take the rq->lock, there's a possible deadlock scenario with another CPU having the rq->lock and calling switch_mm() which takes our context lock. The fix is to always ensure interrupts are off when taking our context lock. The switch_mm() path is already good so this fixes the destroy_context() path. While at it, turn the context lock into a new style spinlock. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-06-09powerpc/mm: Fix some SMP issues with MMU context handlingBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch fixes a couple of issues that can happen as a result of steal_context() dropping the context_lock when all possible PIDs are ineligible for stealing (hopefully an extremely hard to hit occurence). This case exposes the possibility of a stale context_mm[] entry to be seen since destroy_context() doesn't clear it and the free map isn't re-tested. It also means steal_context() will not notice a context freed while the lock was help, thus possibly trying to steal a context when a free one was available. This fixes it by always returning to the caller from steal_context when it dropped the lock with a return value that causes the caller to re-samble the number of free contexts, along with properly clearing the context_mm[] array for destroyed contexts.

Reworked by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> This adds block-step support on powerpc, including a PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK request for ptrace.

2009-06-06fbdev: Add PLB support and cleanup DCR in xilinxfb driver.John Linn
Added support for the new xps tft controller. The new core has PLB interface support in addition to existing DCR interface. Removed platform device support as both MicroBlaze and PowerPC use device tree. Previously, the dcr interface was assumed to be used in mmio mode, and the register space of the dcr interface was precomputed and stuffed into the device tree. This driver now makes use of the new dcr infrastructure to represent the dcr interface. This enables the dcr interface to be connected directly to a native dcr interface in a clean way. Added compatibility for ml507 dvi core.

2009-06-02powerpc/pci: Fix annotation of pcibios_claim_one_busStephen Rothwell
It was __devinit, but it is also within a CONFIG_HOTPLUG guarded section of code, so the __devinit does nothing but cause the following warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a8): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() to the function .devinit.text:pcibios_claim_one_bus() The function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() references the function __devinit pcibios_claim_one_bus(). This is often because pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus lacks a __devinit annotation or the annotation of pcibios_claim_one_bus is wrong. It is also only (externally) used in arch/powerpc/kernel/of_platform.c which cannot be built as a module so don't export it.

2009-05-27powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.Benjamin Herrenschmidt
The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there), or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual address space. This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but grew its own fixes. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-05-27Revert "powerpc: Rework dma-noncoherent to use generic vmalloc layer"Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This reverts commit 33f00dcedb0e22cdb156a23632814fc580fcfcf8. While it was a good idea to try to use the mm/vmalloc.c allocator instead of our own (in fact, ours is itself a dup on an old variant of the vmalloc one), unfortunately, the approach is terminally busted since dma_alloc_coherent() can be called at interrupt time or in atomic contexts and there's little chances we'll make the code in mm/vmalloc.c cope with\ that :-( Until we can get the generic code to forbid that idiocy and fix all drivers abusing it, we pretty much have no choice but revert to our custom virtual space allocator. There's also a problem with SMP safety since freeing such mapping would require an IPI which cannot be done at interrupt time. However, right now, I don't think we support any platform that is both SMP and has non-coherent DMA (don't laugh, I know such things do exist !) so we can sort that out later.
