2008-04-11[IA64] Fix NUMA configuration issueZoltan Menyhart
There is a NUMA memory configuration issue in 2.6.24: A 2-node machine of ours has got the following memory layout: Node 0: 0 - 2 Gbytes Node 0: 4 - 8 Gbytes Node 1: 8 - 16 Gbytes Node 0: 16 - 18 Gbytes "efi_memmap_init()" merges the three last ranges into one. "register_active_ranges()" is called as follows: efi_memmap_walk(register_active_ranges, NULL); i.e. once for the 4 - 18 Gbytes range. It picks up the node number from the start address, and registers all the memory for the node #0. "register_active_ranges()" should be called as follows to make sure there is no merged address range at its entry: efi_memmap_walk(filter_memory, register_active_ranges); "filter_memory()" is similar to "filter_rsvd_memory()", but the reserved memory ranges are not filtered out.

2008-04-08[IA64] Minimize per_cpu reservations.holt@sgi.com
This attached patch significantly shrinks boot memory allocation on ia64. It does this by not allocating per_cpu areas for cpus that can never exist. In the case where acpi does not have any numa node description of the cpus, I defaulted to assigning the first 32 round-robin on the known nodes.. For the !CONFIG_ACPI I used for_each_possible_cpu().

2008-04-04[IA64] Multiple outstanding ptc.g instruction supportFenghua Yu
According to SDM2.2, Itanium supports multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions. But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB in parallel. The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in ia64_global_tlb_purge(). It also adds support for the "PALO" table to get a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY). PALO specification can be found at: http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_PALO_R1_0.pdf spinaphore implementation by Matthew Wilcox.

2007-10-29[IA64] /proc/cpuinfo "physical id" field cleanupsAlex Chiang
Clean up the process for presenting the "physical id" field in /proc/cpuinfo. - remove global smp_num_cpucores, as it is mostly useless - remove check_for_logical_procs(), since we do the same functionality in identify_siblings() - reflow logic in identify_siblings(). If an older CPU does not implement PAL_LOGICAL_TO_PHYSICAL, we may still be able to get useful information from SAL_PHYSICAL_ID_INFO - in identify_siblings(), threads/cores are a property of the CPU, not the platform - remove useless printk's about multi-core / thread capability in identify_siblings(), as that information is readily available in /proc/cpuinfo, and printing for the BSP only adds little value - smp_num_siblings is now meaningful if any CPU in the system supports threads, not just the BSP - expose "physical id" field, even on CPUs that are not multi-core / multi-threaded (as long as we have a valid value).

2007-10-22kexec: add BSS to resource treeBernhard Walle
Add the BSS to the resource tree just as kernel text and kernel data are in the resource tree. The main reason behind this is to avoid crashkernel reservation in that area. While it's not strictly necessary to have the BSS in the resource tree (the actual collision detection is done in the reserve_bootmem() function before), the usage of the BSS resource should be presented to the user in /proc/iomem just as Kernel data and Kernel code. Note: The patch currently is only implemented for x86 and ia64 (because efi_initialize_iomem_resources() has the same signature on i386 and ia64).

This patch adapts IA64 to use the generic parse_crashkernel() function instead of its own parsing for the crashkernel command line. Because the total amount of System RAM must be known when calling this function, efi_memmap_init() is modified to return its accumulated total_memory variable. Also, the crashkernel handling is moved in an own function in arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c to make the code more readable.

Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=> register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0. that is too late. Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature. and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically. new command line will be: console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 or earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 it will print in very early stage: Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8') console [uart0] enabled later for console it will print: console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0] Signed-off-by: <yinghai.lu@sun.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-07-09sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing codeIngo Molnar
the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'. this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the balancing code pretty undeterministic as well. (and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-) under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline' tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.

2007-03-06[IA64] kexec: Use EFI_LOADER_DATA for ELF core headerMagnus Damm
The address where the ELF core header is stored is passed to the secondary kernel as a kernel command line option. The memory area for this header is also marked as a separate EFI memory descriptor on ia64. The separate EFI memory descriptor is at the moment of the type EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY. With such a type the secondary kernel skips over the entire memory granule (config option, 16M or 64M) when detecting memory. If we are lucky we will just lose some memory, but if we happen to have data in the same granule (such as an initramfs image), then this data will never get mapped and the kernel bombs out when trying to access it. So this is an attempt to fix this by changing the EFI memory descriptor type into EFI_LOADER_DATA. This type is the same type used for the kernel data and for initramfs. In the secondary kernel we then handle the ELF core header data the same way as we handle the initramfs image. This patch contains the kernel changes to make this happen. Pretty straightforward, we reserve the area in reserve_memory(). The address for the area comes from the kernel command line and the size comes from the specialized EFI parsing function vmcore_find_descriptor_size(). The kexec-tools-testing code for this can be found here: http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/fastboot/2007-February/005983.html Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <magnus@valinux.co.jp> Cc: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

2007-02-06[IA64] remove per-cpu ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8Chen, Kenneth W
It's not efficient to use a per-cpu variable just to store how many physical stack register a cpu has. Ever since the incarnation of ia64 up till upcoming Montecito processor, that variable has "glued" to 96. Having a variable in memory means that the kernel is burning an extra cacheline access on every syscall and kernel exit path. Such "static" value is better served with the instruction patching utility exists today. Convert ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8 into dynamic insn patching. This also has a pleasant side effect of eliminating access to per-cpu area while psr.ic=0 in the kernel exit path. (fixable for per-cpu DTC work, but why bother?) There are some concerns with the default value that the instruc- tion encoded in the kernel image. It shouldn't be concerned. The reasons are: (1) cpu_init() is called at CPU initialization. In there, we find out physical stack register size from PAL and patch two instructions in kernel exit code. The code in question can not be executed before the patching is done. (2) current implementation stores zero in ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8, and that's what the current kernel exit path loads the value with. With the new code, it is equivalent that we store reg size 96 in ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8, thus creating a better safety net. Given (1) above can never fail, having (2) is just a bonus. All in all, this patch allow one less memory reference in the kernel exit path, thus reducing syscall and interrupt return latency; and avoid polluting potential useful data in the CPU cache.

There seems to be a value in both allowing the kernel to determine the base offset of the crashkernel automatically and allowing users's to sepcify it. The old behaviour on ia64, which is still the current behaviour on most architectures is for the user to always specify the address.

2006-03-26[PATCH] EFI: keep physical table addresses in efi structureBjorn Helgaas
Almost all users of the table addresses from the EFI system table want physical addresses. So rather than doing the pa->va->pa conversion, just keep physical addresses in struct efi. This fixes a DMI bug: the efi structure contained the physical SMBIOS address on x86 but the virtual address on ia64, so dmi_scan_machine() used ioremap() on a virtual address on ia64. This is essentially the same as an earlier patch by Matt Tolentino: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112130292316281&w=2 except that this changes all table addresses, not just ACPI addresses.

In addition, I reworked the DMI detection, such that on EFI-capable systems, it uses the efi.smbios pointer to find the table, rather than brute-force searching from 0xF0000. On non-EFI systems, it continues the brute-force search. My test system, an Intel S870BN4 'Tiger4', aka Dell PowerEdge 7250, with latest BIOS, does not list the IPMI controller in the ACPI namespace, nor does it have an ACPI SPMI table. Also note, currently shipping Dell x8xx EM64T servers don't have these either, so DMI is the only method for obtaining the address of the IPMI controller.

2006-03-24[PATCH] kill include/linux/platform.h, default_idle() cleanupAdrian Bunk
include/linux/platform.h contained nothing that was actually used except the default_idle() prototype, and is therefore removed by this patch. This patch does the following with the platform specific default_idle() functions on different architectures: - remove the unused function: - parisc - sparc64 - make the needlessly global function static: - arm - h8300 - m68k - m68knommu - s390 - v850 - x86_64 - add a prototype in asm/system.h: - cris - i386 - ia64 Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Acked-by: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> Acked-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-23IA64: Use early_parm to handle mvec_name and nomcaHorms
I'm not sure of the worthiness of this idea, so please consider it an RFC. Its key merits are: * Reuse existing infrastructure * Greatly tightens up the parsing of nomca * Greatly simplifies the parsing of machvec Addition cleanup (moving setup_mvec() to machvec.c) by Ken Chen.

Add init declaration to variables/functions used for memory initialization. I don't think they would clash with memory hotplug. If they do, please yell. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
