2009-01-08powerpc/mm: Make clear_fixmap() actually workAnton Vorontsov
The clear_fixmap() routine issues map_page() with flags set to 0. Currently this causes a BUG_ON() inside the map_page(), as it assumes that a PTE should be clear before mapping. This patch makes the map_page() to trigger the BUG_ON() only if the flags were set.

2009-01-08powerpc/kdump: Use ppc_save_regs() in crash_setup_regs()Anton Vorontsov
The patch replaces internal registers dump implementation with ppc_save_regs(). From now on PPC64 and PPC32 are using the same code for crash_setup_regs(). NOTE: The old regs dump implementation was capturing SP (r1) directly as is, so you could see crash_kexec() function on top of the back-trace. But ppc_save_regs() goes up one stack frame, so you'll not see it anymore, at the top-level you'll see who actually triggered the crash dump instead.

2009-01-08powerpc: Fix pciconfig_iobase system call on PCI-Express powermacPaul Mackerras
X has been failing to start on my quad G5 powermac since commit 1fd0f52583a85b21a394201b007bc1ee104b235d ("powerpc: Fix domain numbers in /proc on 64-bit") went in. The reason is that the change allows X to see the PCI-PCI bridge above the video card (previously it was obscured by the fact that there were two "00" directories in /proc/bus/pci), and the pciconfig_iobase system call on the bridge is failing because of a hack that we have to return information about the AGP bus when X asks about bus 0. This machine doesn't have an AGP bus (it has PCI Express) and so the pciconfig_iobase call is returning -1, which ultimately causes X to fail to start. This fixes it by checking that we have an AGP bridge before redirecting the pciconfig_iobase call to return information about the AGP bus. With this, X starts successfully both on a quad G5 with PCI Express and on an older dual G5 with AGP.

2009-01-08powerpc: Rewrite sysfs processor cache info codeNathan Lynch
The current code for providing processor cache information in sysfs has the following deficiencies: - several complex functions that are hard to understand - implicit recursion (cache_desc_release -> kobject_put -> cache_desc_release) - explicit recursion (create_cache_index_info) - use of two per-cpu arrays when one would suffice - duplication of work on systems where CPUs share cache Also, when I looked at implementing support for a shared_cpu_map attribute, it was pretty much impossible to handle hotplug without checking every single online CPU's cache_desc list and fixing things up... not that this is a hot path, but it would have introduced O(n^2)-ish behavior during boot. Addressing this involved rethinking the core data structures used, which didn't lend itself to an incremental approach. This implementation maintains a "forest" (potentially more than one tree) of cache objects which reflects the system's cache topology. Cache objects are instantiated as needed as CPUs come online. A per-cpu array is used mainly for sysfs-related bookkeeping; the objects in the array just point to the appropriate points in the forest. This maintains compatibility with the existing code and includes some enhancements: - Implement the shared_cpu_map attribute, which is essential for enabling userspace to discover the system's overall cache topology. - Use cache-block-size properties if cache-line-size is not available. I chose to place this implementation in a new file since it would have roughly doubled the size of sysfs.c, which is already kind of messy.

2009-01-08powerpc: Copy bootable images in the default install scriptGrant Likely
This patch makes the default install script (arch/powerpc/boot/install.sh) copy the bootable image files into the install directory. Before this patch only the vmlinux image file was copied. This patch makes the default 'make install' command useful for embedded development when $(INSTALL_PATH) is set in the environment. As a side effect, this patch changes the calling convention of the install.sh script. Instead of a single 5th parameter, the script is now passed a list of all the target images stored in the $(image-y) Makefile variable. This should be backwards compatible with existing install scripts since it just adds additional arguments and does not change existing ones.

2009-01-08powerpc/mm: Cleanup careful_allocation(): consolidate memset()Dave Hansen

2009-01-08powerpc/mm: Make careful_allocation() return virtual addrsDave Hansen
Since we memset() the result in both of the uses here, just make careful_alloc() return a virtual address. Also, add a separate variable to store the physial address that comes back from the lmb_alloc() functions. This makes it less likely that someone will screw it up forgetting to convert before returning since the vaddr is always in a void* and the paddr is always in an unsigned long. I admit this is arbitrary since one of its users needs a paddr and one a vaddr, but it does remove a good number of casts.

2009-01-08powerpc/pci: Reserve legacy regions on PCIBenjamin Herrenschmidt
There's a problem on some embedded platforms when we re-assign everything on PCI, such as 44x. The generic code tries to avoid assigning devices to addresses overlapping the low legacy addresses such as VGA hard decoded areas using constants that are unfortunately no good for us, as they don't take into account the address translation we do to access PCI busses. Thus we end up allocating things like IO BARs to 0, which is technically legal, but will shadow hard decoded ports for use by things like VGA cards. This works around it by attempting to reserve legacy regions before we try to assign addresses. NOTE: This may have nasty side effects in cases I haven't tested yet: - We try to use FW mappings (ie. powermac) and the FW has allocated a conflicting address over those legacy regions. This will typically happen. I would expect the new code to just fail with an informative message without harm but I haven't had a chance to test that scenario yet. - A device with fixed BARs overlapping those legacy addresses such as an IDE controller in legacy mode is in the system. I don't know for sure yet what will happen there, I have to test :-) Ideally, we should change PCIBIOS_MIN_IO/MIN_MEM accross the board to take a bus pointer so they can provide appropriate per-bus translated values to the generic code but that's a more invasive patch. I will do that in the future, but in the meantime, this fixes the problem locally Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-01-07USB: powerpc: Workaround for the PPC440EPX USBH_23 errata [take 3]Vitaly Bordug
A published errata for ppc440epx states, that when running Linux with both EHCI and OHCI modules loaded, the EHCI module experiences a fatal error when a high-speed device is connected to the USB2.0, and functions normally if OHCI module is not loaded. There used to be recommendation to use only hi-speed or full-speed devices with specific conditions, when respective module was unloaded. Later, it was observed that ohci suspend is enough to keep things going, and it was turned into workaround, as explained below. Quote from original descriprion: The 440EPx USB 2.0 Host controller is an EHCI compliant controller. In USB 2.0 Host controllers, each EHCI controller has one or more companion controllers, which may be OHCI or UHCI. An USB 2.0 Host controller will contain one or more ports. For each port, only one of the controllers is connected at any one time. In the 440EPx, there is only one OHCI companion controller, and only one USB 2.0 Host port. All ports on an USB 2.0 controller default to the companion controller. If you load only an ohci driver, it will have control of the ports and any deviceplugged in will operate, although high speed devices will be forced to operate at full speed. When an ehci driver is loaded, it explicitly takes control of the ports. If there is a device connected, and / or every time there is a new device connected, the ehci driver determines if the device is high speed or not. If it is high speed, the driver retains control of the port. If it is not, the driver explicitly gives the companion controller control of the port. The is a software workaround that uses Initial version of the software workaround was posted to linux-usb-devel: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg54019.html and later available from amcc.com: http://www.amcc.com/Embedded/Downloads/download.html?cat=1&family=15&ins=2 The patch below is generally based on the latter, but reworked to powerpc/of_device USB drivers, and uses a few devicetree inquiries to get rid of (some) hardcoded defines.

2009-01-06mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfsGary Hade
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all the memory sections located on nodeX. For example: /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135 indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1. Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state' that were previously not described there. In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with the maximum possible amount of physical location information for resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by this change. Immediate: - Provides information needed to determine the specific node on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out. - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory could be ugly. - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes. Future: - Will provide information needed to identify the memory sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal of a specific node. Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for the MMU on older processor.
