2008-12-16powerpc/chrp: Add missing of_node_put in pci.cNicolas Palix
of_node_put is needed before discarding a value received from of_find_node_by_name, eg in error handling code or when the device node is no longer used.

2008-12-16powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Fix MSI after kexecArnd Bergmann
Commit d015fe995 'powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt' has turned a rare failure to kexec on QS22 into a reproducible error, which we have now analysed. The problem is that after a kexec, the MSIC hardware still points into the middle of the old ring buffer. We set up the ring buffer during reboot, but not the offset into it. On older kernels, this would cause a storm of thousands of spurious interrupts after a kexec, which would most of the time get dropped silently. With the new code, we time out on each interrupt, waiting for it to become valid. If more interrupts come in that we time out on, this goes on indefinitely, which eventually leads to a hard crash. The solution in this commit is to read the current offset from the MSIC when reinitializing it. This now works correctly, as expected.

2008-12-01powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interruptArnd Bergmann
The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load, when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt controller while we are already handling another MSI. Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF. An MMIO register in the MSIC holds the position of the last entry in the FIFO buffer that was written. However, reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that we can observe stale data in the buffer. In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive up to 14 microseconds after reading the register. This patch works around this problem by retrying the access to the FIFO buffer. We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get are valid. After detecting an invalid MSI vector, we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to 100 times before giving up.

2008-11-21powerpc/spufs: Fix spinning in spufs_ps_fault on signalJeremy Kerr
Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg: alarm(1); write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4); - the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting, resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU. This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending, letting us escape the loop. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

2008-11-05powerpc/pseries: Fix getting the server number sizeSebastien Dugue
The 'ibm,interrupt-server#-size' properties are not in the cpu nodes, which is where we currently look for them, but rather live under the interrupt source controller nodes (which have "ibm,ppc-xics" in their compatible property). This moves the code that looks for the ibm,interrupt-server#-size properties from xics_update_irq_servers() into xics_init_IRQ(). Also this adds a check for mismatched sizes across the interrupt source controller nodes. Not sure this is necessary as in this case the firmware might be seriously busted. This property only appears on POWER6 boxes and is only used in the set-indicator(gqirm) call, and apparently firmware currently ignores the value we pass. Nevertheless we need to fix it in case future firmware versions use it.

2008-10-31powerpc/mpic: Fix regression caused by change of default IRQ affinityKumar Gala
The Freescale implementation of MPIC only allows a single CPU destination for non-IPI interrupts. We add a flag to the mpic_init to distinquish these variants of MPIC. We pull in the irq_choose_cpu from sparc64 to select a single CPU as the destination of the interrupt. This is to deal with the fact that the default smp affinity was changed by commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 ("genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)") to be all CPUs.

2008-10-31powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_pageMark Nelson
After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use map/unmap_page. First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single() becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments. This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls unmap_page(). This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

2008-10-22powerpc: Support for relocatable kdump kernelMohan Kumar M
This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234) is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels. The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter. CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and kdump kernel.

With most file readers (eg cat, dd), reading a context's regs file will result in two reads: the first to read the data, and the second to return EOF. Because each read performs a spu_acquire_saved, we end up descheduling and re-scheduling the context twice. This change does a simple check to see if we'd return EOF before calling spu_acquire_saved(), saving the extra schedule operation. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-10-21powerpc/spufs: Don't require full buffer in switch_log readJeremy Kerr
Currently, read() on the sputrace log will block until the read buffer is full. This makes it difficult to retrieve the end of the buffer, as the user will need to read with the right-sized buffer. In a similar method as 91553a1b5e0df006a3573a88d98ee7cd48a3818a, this change makes the switch_log return if there has already been data read. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
