2008-10-20PCI: Add ability to mmap legacy_io on some platformsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This adds the ability to mmap legacy IO space to the legacy_io files in sysfs on platforms that support it. This will allow to clean up X to use this instead of /dev/mem for legacy IO accesses such as those performed by Int10. While at it I moved pci_create/remove_legacy_files() to pci-sysfs.c where I think they belong, thus making more things statis in there and cleaned up some spurrious prototypes in the ia64 pci.h file Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>
2008-10-20always reserve elfcore header memory in crash kernelSimon Horman
elfcore header memory needs to be reserved in a crash kernel. This means that the relevant code should be protected by CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP rather than CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

2008-10-20kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()Simon Horman
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel. However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return 1. Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least confusion. This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some reason. This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using vmcore_unusable(). A subsequent patch makes use of this new code. To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows: ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable any other value: crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-10-20kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCOREVivek Goyal
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. For example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table. So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup calgary iommu accordingly. o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files. (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file otherwise that would have been the best place). o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in second kernel without KEXEC being enabled. o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for elfcorehdr_addr. I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh. Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not broken on sh.

2008-10-20container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystemMatt Helsley
This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. Reading will return the current state. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space task in a simple scenario. It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain "FREEZING" until one of these things happens: 1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to the freezer.state file 2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal and returns EIO) 3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN" state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

2008-09-08ia64: dma_alloc_coherent always use GFP_DMAFUJITA Tomonori
This patch makes dma_alloc_coherent use GFP_DMA at all times. This is necessary for swiotlb, which requires the callers to set up the gfp flags properly. swiotlb_alloc_coherent tries to allocate pages with the gfp flags. If the allocated memory isn't fit for dev->coherent_dma_mask, swiotlb_alloc_coherent reserves some of the swiotlb memory area, which is precious resource. So the callers need to set up the gfp flags properly. This patch means that other IA64 IOMMUs' dma_alloc_coherent also use GFP_DMA. These IOMMUs (e.g. SBA IOMMU) don't need GFP_DMA since they can map a memory to any address. But IA64's GFP_DMA is large, generally drivers allocate small memory with dma_alloc_coherent only at startup. So I chose the simplest way to set up the gfp flags for swiotlb.

2008-08-25[IA64] Fix ia64 build failure when CONFIG_SFC=mRobin Holt
CONFIG_SFC=m uses topology_core_siblings() which, for ia64, expects cpu_core_map to be exported. It is not. This patch exports the needed symbol. Maintainers note: This really looks like the wrong thing to do ... it would be much better for the kernel to export an API to provide drivers like this with data they need (which in the case of this driver seems to be an estimate of the effective parallelism available on the platform). But x86 has exported this forever ... so go with the flow until such an API is defined.

2008-08-18[IA64] use generic compat_old_sys_readdirChristoph Hellwig
Switch ia64 to the generic compat_sys_old_readdir which is identical except for slightly better error handling. Also remove sys32_getdents which already isn't wired up to the syscall table anymore in favour of compat_sys_getdents.

2008-08-18[IA64] pci_acpi_scan_root cleanupLuck, Tony
The code walks all the acpi _CRS methods to see how many windows to allocate. It then scans them all again to insert_resource() for each *even if the first scan found that there were none*. Move the second scan inside the "if (windows)" clause. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2008-08-18[IA64] Shrink shadow_flush_counts to a short array to save 8k of per_cpu area.Robin Holt
Making allmodconfig will break the current build. This patch shrinks the per_cpu__shadow_flush_counts from 16k to 8k which frees enough space to allow allmodconfig to successfully complete.

2008-08-18[IA64] Remove sn2_defconfig.Robin Holt
Not really a patch as much as a remove this file request. Now that generic_defconfig supports all the configurations SGI currently supports and has NR_CPUS and NR_NODES at our largest configurations, we have no reason to maintain the extra defconfig file.
