2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: fix build breakageAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
The following patch (against 2.6.15-rc5-mm3) fixes a kprobes build break due to changes introduced in the kprobe locking in 2.6.15-rc5-mm3. In addition, the patch reverts back the open-coding of kprobe_mutex.

2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: arch_remove_kprobeAnil S Keshavamurthy
Currently arch_remove_kprobes() is only implemented/required for x86_64 and powerpc. All other architecture like IA64, i386 and sparc64 implementes a dummy function which is being called from arch independent kprobes.c file.

2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: changed from using spinlock to mutexAnil S Keshavamurthy
Since Kprobes runtime exception handlers is now lock free as this code path is now using RCU to walk through the list, there is no need for the register/unregister{_kprobe} to use spin_{lock/unlock}_isr{save/restore}. The serialization during registration/unregistration is now possible using just a mutex. In the above process, this patch also fixes a minor memory leak for x86_64 and powerpc.

2006-01-10[PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.cChristoph Hellwig
Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft. We need a special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done. This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c Tested on ppc64. [1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this patchset.

2006-01-09powerpc: set CONFIG_PPC_OF=y always for ARCH=powerpcPaul Mackerras
The CONFIG_PPC_OF symbol is used to mean that the firmware device tree access functions are available. Since we always have a device tree with ARCH=powerpc, make CONFIG_PPC_OF always Y for ARCH=powerpc. This fixes some compile errors reported by Kumar Gala, but in a different way to his patch. This also makes prom_parse.o be compiled only if CONFIG_PPC_OF so that non-OF ARCH=ppc platforms will compile. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-01-09[PATCH] 4/5 powerpc: Add cpufreq support for all desktop G5Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch adds cpufreq support for all desktop "tower" G5 models. The only G5 models still lacking cpufreq support at this point are the Xserve and possibly the new iMac iSight (not tested). I'll have those added soon. That patch uses the new platform functions interpreter to implement frequency and voltage switching on most models. Note that in order to find the low frequency value, I had to hack something that might now work properly on all models, so if the frequency value reported when running low speed looks bogus to you, please report it to me. (Appart from a bogus reported value, things should work fine). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] 3/5 powerpc: Add platform functions interpreterBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This is the platform function interpreter itself along with the backends for UniN/U3/U4, mac-io, GPIOs and i2c. It adds the ability to execute those do-platform-* scripts in the device-tree (at least for most devices for which a backend is provided). This should replace the clock spreading hacks properly. It might also have an impact on all sort of machines since some of the scripts marked "at init" will now be executed on boot (or some other on sleep/wakeup), those will possibly do things that the kernel didn't do at all, like setting some values into some i2c devices (changing thermal sensor calibration or conversion rate) etc... Thus regression testing is MUCH welcome. Also loook for errors in dmesg. That's also why I've left rather verbose debugging enabled in this version of the patch. (I do expect some Windtunnel G4s to show some errors as they have an i2c clock chip on the PMU bus that uses some primitives that the i2c backend doesn't implement yet. I really need users that have one of those machine to come back to me so we can get that done right, though the errors themselves should be harmless, I suspect the machine might not run at full speed).

2006-01-09[PATCH] 2/5 powerpc: Rework PowerMac i2c part 2Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This is the continuation of the previous patch. This one removes the old PowerMac i2c drivers (i2c-keywest and i2c-pmac-smu) and replaces them both with a single stub driver that uses the new PowerMac low i2c layer. Now that i2c-keywest is gone, the low-i2c code is extended to support interrupt driver transfers. All i2c busses now appear as platform devices. Compatibility with existing drivers should be maintained as the i2c bus names have been kept identical, except for the SMU bus but in that later case, all users has been fixed. With that patch added, matching a device node to an i2c_adapter becomes trivial. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] 1/5 powerpc: Rework PowerMac i2c part 1Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This is the first part of a rework of the PowerMac i2c code. It completely reworks the "low_i2c" layer. It is now more flexible, supports KeyWest, SMU and PMU i2c busses, and provides functions to match device nodes to i2c busses and adapters. This patch also extends & fix some bugs in the SMU driver related to i2c support and removes the clock spreading hacks from the pmac feature code rather than adapting them to the new API since they'll be replaced by the platform function code completely in patch 3/5 Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2006-01-09[PATCH] ppc64: fix time syscallAnton Blanchard
ppc64 has its own version of sys_time. It looks pretty scary, touching a whole bunch of variables without any locking or memory ordering.

2006-01-09[PATCH] spufs: set irq affinity for running threadsArnd Bergmann
For far, all SPU triggered interrupts always end up on the first SMT thread, which is a bad solution.

2006-01-09[PATCH] spufs: abstract priv1 register access.Arnd Bergmann
In a hypervisor based setup, direct access to the first priviledged register space can typically not be allowed to the kernel and has to be implemented through hypervisor calls. As suggested by Masato Noguchi, let's abstract the register access trough a number of function calls. Since there is currently no public specification of actual hypervisor calls to implement this, I only provide a place that makes it easier to hook into.

2006-01-09[PATCH] powerpc: Replace VMALLOCBASE with VMALLOC_STARTDavid Gibson
On ppc64, we independently define VMALLOCBASE and VMALLOC_START to be the same thing: the start of the vmalloc() area at 0xd000000000000000. VMALLOC_START is used much more widely, including in generic code, so this patch gets rid of the extraneous VMALLOCBASE. This does require moving the definitions of region IDs from page_64.h to pgtable.h, but they don't clearly belong in the former rather than the latter, anyway. While we're moving them, clean up the definitions of the REGION_IDs: - Abolish REGION_SIZE, it was only used once, to define REGION_MASK anyway - Define the specific region ids in terms of the REGION_ID() macro. - Define KERNEL_REGION_ID in terms of PAGE_OFFSET rather than KERNELBASE. It amounts to the same thing, but conceptually this is about the region of the linear mapping (which starts at PAGE_OFFSET) rather than of the kernel text itself (which is at KERNELBASE).
