2008-05-03unified (weak) sys_pipe implementationUlrich Drepper
This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with one unified implementation. This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated code. It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers) I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL isn't needed. The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really no obstacles. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-04-28atmel_lcdfb: don't initialize a pre-allocated framebufferHaavard Skinnemoen
If the user specified a fixed framebuffer address on the command line, it may have been initialized already with a splash image or something, so we shouldn't clear it. Therefore, we should only initialize the framebuffer if we allocated it ourselves. This patch also updates the AVR32 setup code to clear the framebuffer if it allocated it itself, i.e. the user didn't provide a fixed address or the reservation failed. I've updated the at91 platform code as well so that it initializes the framebuffer if it is located in SRAM, but I haven't tested that it actually works.

2008-04-19avr32: Generic clockevents supportDavid Brownell
This combines three patches from David Brownell: * avr32: tclib support * avr32: simplify clocksources * avr32: Turn count/compare into a oneshot clockevent device Register both TC blocks (instead of just the first one) so that the AT32/AT91 tclib code will pick them up (instead of just the avr32-only PIT-style clocksource). Rename the first one and its resources appropriately. More cleanups to the cycle counter clocksource code - Disable all the weak symbol magic; remove the AVR32-only TCB-based clocksource code (source and header). - Mark the __init code properly. - Don't forget to report IRQF_TIMER. - Make the system work properly with this clocksource, by preventing use of the CPU "idle" sleep state in the idle loop when it's used. Package the avr32 count/compare timekeeping support as a oneshot clockevent device, so it supports NO_HZ and high res timers. This means it also supports plugging in other clockevent devices and clocksources.

2008-04-19avr32: start clocksource cleanupDavid Brownell
Start cleaning up the AVR32 clocksource mess, starting with the cycle counter clocksource: remove unneeded pseudo-RTC (just inline that call to mktime) and associated build warning, and unused sysdev. Add comment about the problem using the cycle counter register, and adjust the clocksource rating accordingly. Later patches can make this usable again (by disabling use of the idle state and providing a proper clocksource without the weak binding hacks) and move towards TCB-based clockevent support (including high resolution timers) that's shared between AT91 and AVR32.

2008-02-27avr32: Fix OCD refcounting bugHaavard Skinnemoen
Iff the parent has TIF_DEBUG set, _and_ clone_flags includes CLONE_PTRACE we should set the TIF_DEBUG flag for the child and increment the ocd refcount. Otherwise, the TIF_DEBUG flag must be unset. Currently, the child inherits TIF_DEBUG from the parent before copy_thread is called, so TIF_DEBUG may be already be set before we determine whether the child is supposed to inherit debugging capabilities from the parent or not. This means that ocd_enable() won't increment the refcount, because TIF_DEBUG is already set, and that TIF_DEBUG will be set for processes that aren't being debugged. This leads to a refcounting asymmetry, which may show up as ------------[ cut here ]------------ Badness at arch/avr32/kernel/ocd.c:73 PC is at ocd_disable+0x34/0x60 LR is at put_lock_stats+0xa/0x20 as reported by David Brownell.

This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

2008-01-25[AVR32] Enable debugging only when neededHaavard Skinnemoen
Keep track of processes being debugged (including the kernel itself) and turn the OCD system on and off as appropriate. Since enabling debugging turns off some optimizations in the CPU core, this fixes the issue that enabling KProbes support or simply running a program under gdbserver will reduce system performance significantly until the next reboot. The CPU performance will still be reduced for all processes while a process is being debugged, but this is a lot better than reducing the performance forever.

2007-12-07[AVR32] Follow the rules when dealing with the OCD systemHaavard Skinnemoen
The current debug trap handling code does a number of things that are illegal according to the AVR32 Architecture manual. Most importantly, it may try to schedule from Debug Mode, thus clearing the D bit, which can lead to "undefined behaviour". It seems like this works in most cases, but several people have observed somewhat unstable behaviour when debugging programs, including soft lockups. So there's definitely something which is not right with the existing code. The new code will never schedule from Debug mode, it will always exit Debug mode with a "retd" instruction, and if something not running in Debug mode needs to do something debug-related (like doing a single step), it will enter debug mode through a "breakpoint" instruction. The monitor code will then return directly to user space, bypassing its own saved registers if necessary (since we don't actually care about the trapped context, only the one that came before.) This adds three instructions to the common exception handling code, including one branch. It does not touch super-hot paths like the TLB miss handler.

2007-12-07[AVR32] Clean up OCD register usageHaavard Skinnemoen
Generate a new set of OCD register definitions in asm/ocd.h and rename __mfdr() and __mtdr() to ocd_read() and ocd_write() respectively. The bitfield definitions are a lot more complete now, and they are entirely based on bit numbers, not masks. This is because OCD registers are frequently accessed from assembly code, where bit numbers are a lot more useful (can be fed directly to sbr, bfins, etc.) Bitfields that consist of more than one bit have two definitions: _START, which indicates the number of the first bit, and _SIZE, which indicates the number of bits. These directly correspond to the parameters taken by the bfextu, bfexts and bfins instructions. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>

2007-10-19pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()Serge E. Hallyn
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init(). This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a bug rather than force a kernel panic.

2007-07-16generic bug: use show_regs() instead of dump_stack()Heiko Carstens
The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit. Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(), gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a warning. This will give more debug informations like register contents, etc... In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack() emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which is of no interest in case of a warning. E.g. on s390 the following lines are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets called from report_bug(): [<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8) [<0000000000015270>] show_stack+0xa0/0xd0 [<00000000000152ce>] dump_stack+0x2e/0x3c [<0000000000195450>] report_bug+0x98/0xf8 [<0000000000016cc8>] illegal_op+0x1fc/0x21c [<00000000000227d6>] sysc_return+0x0/0x10 Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Acked-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
