2007-06-07[POWERPC] spufs scheduler: Fix wakeup racesChristoph Hellwig
Fix the race between checking for contexts on the runqueue and actually waking them in spu_deactive and spu_yield. The guts of spu_reschedule are split into a new helper called grab_runnable_context which shows if there is a runnable thread below a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses it. This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses it. This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating the old one.

2007-06-07[POWERPC] spufs: Fix gang destroy leaksJeremy Kerr
Previously, closing a SPE gang that still has contexts would trigger a WARN_ON, and leak the allocated gang. This change fixes the problem by using the gang's reference counts to destroy the gang instead. The gangs will persist until their last reference (be it context or open file handle) is gone. Also, avoid using statements with side-effects in a WARN_ON().

2007-05-17[POWERPC] Small fixes for the Ebony device treeDavid Gibson
This patch corrects a number of minor errors in the Ebony device tree: - Missing (given as 0) cache sizes are added to the CPU node - device_type properties are removed from nodes which don't have a reasonably well defined device_type binding. This does require a very small code change to locate the busses to be probed for of_platform devices by 'compatible' instead of 'device_type'. - A node is added for the SRAM controller - The unit address of the small-flash node is adjusted to correctly reflect the reg property. - device_type values for the MAL and ZMII are updated to reflected more up-to-date versions of the binding. - An incorrect offset in the partition map for the large-flash node is corrected. - Some redundant values, already commented out are removed entirely.

2007-05-11powerpc: fixup hard_irq_disable semanticsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch renames the raw hard_irq_{enable,disable} into __hard_irq_{enable,disable} and introduces a higher level hard_irq_disable() function that can be used by any code to enforce that IRQs are fully disabled, not only lazy disabled. The difference with the __ versions is that it will update some per-processor fields so that the kernel keeps track and properly re-enables them in the next local_irq_disable(); This prepares powerpc for my next patch that introduces hard_irq_disable() generically.

This adds an option to spufs when the kernel is configured for 4K page to give it the ability to use 64K pages for SPE local store mappings.

2007-05-09[POWERPC] Introduce address space "slices"Benjamin Herrenschmidt
The basic issue is to be able to do what hugetlbfs does but with different page sizes for some other special filesystems; more specifically, my need is: - Huge pages - SPE local store mappings using 64K pages on a 4K base page size kernel on Cell - Some special 4K segments in 64K-page kernels for mapping a dodgy type of powerpc-specific infiniband hardware that requires 4K MMU mappings for various reasons I won't explain here. The main issues are: - To maintain/keep track of the page size per "segment" (as we can only have one page size per segment on powerpc, which are 256MB divisions of the address space). - To make sure special mappings stay within their allotted "segments" (including MAP_FIXED crap) - To make sure everybody else doesn't mmap/brk/grow_stack into a "segment" that is used for a special mapping Some of the necessary mechanisms to handle that were present in the hugetlbfs code, but mostly in ways not suitable for anything else. The patch relies on some changes to the generic get_unmapped_area() that just got merged. It still hijacks hugetlb callbacks here or there as the generic code hasn't been entirely cleaned up yet but that shouldn't be a problem. So what is a slice ? Well, I re-used the mechanism used formerly by our hugetlbfs implementation which divides the address space in "meta-segments" which I called "slices". The division is done using 256MB slices below 4G, and 1T slices above. Thus the address space is divided currently into 16 "low" slices and 16 "high" slices. (Special case: high slice 0 is the area between 4G and 1T). Doing so simplifies significantly the tracking of segments and avoids having to keep track of all the 256MB segments in the address space. While I used the "concepts" of hugetlbfs, I mostly re-implemented everything in a more generic way and "ported" hugetlbfs to it. Slices can have an associated page size, which is encoded in the mmu context and used by the SLB miss handler to set the segment sizes. The hash code currently doesn't care, it has a specific check for hugepages, though I might add a mechanism to provide per-slice hash mapping functions in the future. The slice code provide a pair of "generic" get_unmapped_area() (bottomup and topdown) functions that should work with any slice size. There is some trickiness here so I would appreciate people to have a look at the implementation of these and let me know if I got something wrong.
