2008-05-15[POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pagesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the address space, and to configure the page size of that region dynamically at boot. The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's. In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting the available memory even more, from my experience down to something like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable. The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is: - If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot, use that size. - Else if 64K pages are available, use that - Else use 4K pages I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages) and it seems to work fine. Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions & SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a later patch.

2008-05-13[POWERPC] 86xx: mpc8610_hpcd: use ULI526X driver for on-board ethernetAnton Vorontsov
As of current mainline tree, TULIP driver is unusable on MPC8610HPCD boards. There is a patch[1] floating around (and also included in the BSP), which tries to heal the situation, though the ethernet is still unusable. Practically it takes ages to mount NFS filesystem: VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem).

When debugging early boot problems, it's common to sprinkle printk's all over the place. However, on 64-bit powerpc, this can lead to memory corruption if done too early due to the PACA pointer and lockdep core not being initialized.

The new 440x6 core used on AMCC 460EX/GT introduces new storage attibure fields to the TLB2 word. Those are: Bit 11 12 13 14 15 WL1 IL1I IL1D IL2I IL2D With these bits the cache (L1 and L2) can be configured in a more flexible way, instruction- and data-cache independently now. The "old" I and W bits are still available and setting these old bits will automically set these new bits too (for backward compatibilty). The current code does not clear these fields resulting in disabling the cache by chance. This patch now makes sure that these new bits are cleared when the TLB2 word is written.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: handle faults while the context switch pending flag is setLuke Browning
Currently, page fault handlers don't issue a mfc restart if the context switch pending flag is set, which can leave us with a hanging DMA after a context restore. This patch introduces fault pending flag that is set by the fault handler and read by the context switch code, so that the latter can add the restart bit at the right spot, after it has successfuly saved the state of the mfc control register.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: try to route SPU interrupts to local nodeLuke Browning
Currently, we re-route SPU interrupts to the current cpu, which may be on a remote node. In the case of time slicing, all spu interrupts will end up routed to the same cpu, where the spusched_tick occurs. This change routes mfc interrupts to the cpu where the controlling thread last ran, provided that cpu is on the same node as the spu (otherwise don't reroute interrupts). This should improve performance and provide a more predictable environment for processing spu exceptions. In the past we have seen concurrent delivery of spu exceptions to two cpus. This eliminates that concern. Signed-off-by: Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>
2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: set SPU_CONTEXT_SWITCH_PENDING before synchronising SPU irqsLuke Browning
synchronize_irq() provides the serialization for SPU_CONTEXT_SWITCH_PENDING which is read with a simple load. This routine guarantees that the relevant interrupt handlers are not running, so that the next time they do run they will see the update memory value. This must be done correctly so that exception handling code does not restart the mfc in the middle of a context switch while we are trying to atomically stop it and save state.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] spufs: fix save of mfc_cntl registerJeremy Kerr
Currently, we can introduce invalid entries into the MFC queues: 1) context starts a DMA 2) context gets scheduled out during a DMA - kernel saves MFC queue to CSA - kernel saves 0x0 in csa->mfc_control_RW 3) context gets scheduled in - csa->mfc_control[Q] ('queues empty') isn't set, so DMA queues are restored from the CSA 4) context's DMA is completed 5) context gets scheduled out again, no DMA occuring this time - kernel sees that MFC_CNTL[Q] ('queues empty') is set, so doesn't touch saved queue data in CSA - kernel saves 0x0 in csa->mfc_control_RW 6) context gets scheduled in - csa->mfc_control[Q] ('queues empty') isn't set (we saved is as 0!), so DMA queues are restored from the CSA In this last restore, we've restored the queue status from step 2, which are now invalid.

2008-05-05[POWERPC] cell: Fix lost interrupts due to fasteoi handlerJeremy Kerr
We may currently lose interrupts during SPE context switch, as we alter the INT_Route register. Because the IIC uses a per-thread priority status, changing the interrupt routing to a different thread means that the IRQ is no longer masked by the priority status, so we end up with two fasteoi IRQ handlers executing for the one irq_desc. The fasteoi handler doesn't handle multiple IRQs, so drops the second one. Fix this by using our own flow handler. This is based on handle_edge_irq, but issues an eoi after IRQs are handled, and doesn't do any mask/unmasking. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org>

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.

2008-05-02[POWERPC] Bolt in SLB entry for kernel stack on secondary cpusPaul Mackerras
This fixes a regression reported by Kamalesh Bulabel where a POWER4 machine would crash because of an SLB miss at a point where the SLB miss exception was unrecoverable. This regression is tracked at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10082 SLB misses at such points shouldn't happen because the kernel stack is the only memory accessed other than things in the first segment of the linear mapping (which is mapped at all times by entry 0 of the SLB). The context switch code ensures that SLB entry 2 covers the kernel stack, if it is not already covered by entry 0. None of entries 0 to 2 are ever replaced by the SLB miss handler. Where this went wrong is that the context switch code assumes it doesn't have to write to SLB entry 2 if the new kernel stack is in the same segment as the old kernel stack, since entry 2 should already be correct. However, when we start up a secondary cpu, it calls slb_initialize, which doesn't set up entry 2. This is correct for the boot cpu, where we will be using a stack in the kernel BSS at this point (i.e. init_thread_union), but not necessarily for secondary cpus, whose initial stack can be allocated anywhere. This doesn't cause any immediate problem since the SLB miss handler will just create an SLB entry somewhere else to cover the initial stack. In fact it's possible for the cpu to go quite a long time without SLB entry 2 being valid. Eventually, though, the entry created by the SLB miss handler will get overwritten by some other entry, and if the next access to the stack is at an unrecoverable point, we get the crash. This fixes the problem by making slb_initialize create a suitable entry for the kernel stack, if we are on a secondary cpu and the stack isn't covered by SLB entry 0. This requires initializing the get_paca()->kstack field earlier, so I do that in smp_create_idle where the current field is initialized. This also abstracts a bit of the computation that mk_esid_data in slb.c does so that it can be used in slb_initialize. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
