2007-01-24[MIPS] There is no __GNUC_MAJOR__Alexey Dobriyan
Gcc major version number is in __GNUC__. As side effect fix checking with sparse if sparse was built with gcc 4.1 and mips cross-compiler is 3.4. Sparse will inherit version 4.1, __GNUC__ won't be filtered from "-dM -E -xc" output, sparse will pick only new major, effectively becoming gcc version 3.1 which is unsupported.

2007-01-24[ARM] 4102/1: Allow for PHYS_OFFSET on any valid 2MiB addressLinus Walleij
This patchs allows the offset to the first page of physical memory to be on any 2MB boundary whereas the previous code could only handle psysical offset to any 16MB boundary (0xNN000000) or any 1MB boundary below 0x01000000 (e.g. 0x00N00000). The problem is a consequence of the orr one-byte syntax, so we fix this and we can place the first bank of memory at 0x28e00000. I have also included an explicit check that disallow compilation when PHYS_OFFSET is not on a 2MiB boundary. head.S would be the proper place to have this at since this is the first file that attempts to use PHYS_OFFSET during compile.

2007-01-24[ARM] 4096/1: S3C24XX: change return code form s3c2410_gpio_getcfg()Ben Dooks
The s3c2410_gpio_getcfg() currently returns a value which is dependant on the GPIO no passed in. Now we have more generic constants it is sensible to use those as return codes so that any function dealing with >1 GPIO does not need to do it's own number processing. Since this function is only currently used in pm.c, it is easy to fixup (and correct pm.c to use the generic constants) Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2007-01-24[ARM] 4095/1: S3C24XX: Fix GPIO set for Bank ABen Dooks
GPIO bank A can only be output or a special function, and the regs-gpio.h header has mistakenly got this as input or output. The mistake is carried on into the gpio.c s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin() call which will set the wrong value if S3C2410_GPIO_OUTPUT is passed.

2007-01-24[ARM] 4089/1: AT91: GPIO wake IRQ cleanupAndrew Victor
Cleanup of at91 platform level gpio wake and suspend/resume logic. The GPIO core now delegates wakeups to the parent AIC by refcounting, and delegates clock management to the clock API. This makes these system modules more independent of each other, which is cleaner and will also help with the AT91SAM9263 (where some GPIO controllers share the same irq and clock).

2007-01-23[MIPS] SMTC: Instant IPI replay.Ralf Baechle
SMTC pseudo-interrupts between TCs are deferred and queued if the target TC is interrupt-inhibited (IXMT). In the first SMTC prototypes, these queued IPIs were serviced on return to user mode, or on entry into the kernel idle loop. The INSTANT_REPLAY option dispatches them as part of local_irq_restore() processing, which adds runtime overhead (hence the option to turn it off), but ensures that IPIs are handled promptly even under heavy I/O interrupt load.

2007-01-23[PATCH] Revert nmi_known_cpu() check during boot option parsingVenkatesh Pallipadi
Commit f2802e7f571c05f9a901b1f5bd144aa730ccc88e and its x86 version (b7471c6da94d30d3deadc55986cc38d1ff57f9ca) adds nmi_known_cpu() check while parsing boot options in x86_64 and i386. With that, "nmi_watchdog=2" stops working for me on Intel Core 2 CPU based system. The problem is, setup_nmi_watchdog is called while parsing the boot option and identify_cpu is not done yet. So, the return value of nmi_known_cpu() is not valid at this point. So revert that check. This should not have any adverse effect as the nmi_known_cpu() check is done again later in enable_lapic_nmi_watchdog().

2007-01-22[PATCH] x86: fix PDA variables to work during bootJames Bottomley
The current PDA code, which went in in post 2.6.19 has a flaw in that it doesn't correctly cycle the GDT and %GS segment through the boot PDA, the CPU PDA and finally the per-cpu PDA. The bug generally doesn't show up if the boot CPU id is zero, but everything falls apart for a non zero boot CPU id. The basically kills voyager which is perfectly capable of doing non zero CPU id boots, so voyager currently won't boot without this. The fix is to be careful and actually do the GDT setups correctly.

2007-01-22[POWERPC] Fix broken DMA on non-LPAR pSeriesLinas Vepstas
It appears that the iommu table address is never stored, and thus never found, on non-lpar systems. Thus, for example, during boot: <7>[ 93.067916] PCI: Scanning bus 0001:41 <7>[ 93.068542] PCI: Found 0001:41:01.0 [8086/100f] 000200 00 <7>[ 93.068550] PCI: Calling quirk c0000000007822e0 for 0001:41:01.0 <7>[ 93.069815] PCI: Fixups for bus 0001:41 <4>[ 93.070167] iommu: Device 0001:41:01.0 has no iommu table <7>[ 93.070251] PCI: Bus scan for 0001:41 returning with max=41 No iommu table? How can that be? Well, circa line 471 of arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/iommu.c we see the code: while (dn && PCI_DN(dn) && PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table == NULL) dn = dn->parent; and a few lines later is the surprising print statement about the missing table. Seems that this loop ran unto the end, never once finding a non-null PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table. The problem can be found a few lines earlier: it sems that the value of PCI_DN(dn)->iommu_table is never ever set. Thus, the patch sets it. The patch was tested on a Power4 system running in full system partition mode, which is where I saw the problem. It works; I've not done any wider testing. Had a brief discussion on this on irc.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration, we get a .text refering .init.data warning. This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or are of __init type. Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would land up in .init section.

2007-01-11[PATCH] x86-64: - Ignore long SMI interrupts in clock calibrationJack Steiner
Ensure that no SMI interrupts occur between the read of the HPET & TSC in the clock calibration loop. I noticed that a 2.66GHz system incorrectly detected the processor clock speed about 1/7 of the time: time.c: Detected 2660.005 MHz processor. (most of the time) time.c: Detected 2988.203 MHz processor. (sometime) The problem is caused by an SMI interrupt occuring in hpet_calibrate_tsc() between the read of the HPET & TSC. Prior to switching the BIOS into ACPI mode, it appears that every 27msec an SMI interrupt occurs. The SMI interrupt takes 4.8 msec to process. Note: On my test system, TICK_MIN had to be >380. I picked 5000 to minimize risk of having a value that is too small for other platforms.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_summit' (at offset 0xc058b504) and 'apic_bigsmp' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_bigsmp' (at offset 0xc058b5a4) and 'cpu.4471' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_es7000' (at offset 0xc058b644) and 'apic_default' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_default' (at offset 0xc058b6e4) and 'interrupt' o One of the possible options is to put special case check in MODPOST to not emit warnings for this case but I think it is not a very good option in terms of maintenance. o Another option is to make probe() function non __init. Anyway this function is really small so not freeing this memory after init is not a big deal. Secondly, from a programming perspective, probably genapic should not provide pointers to functions which have been freed as genapic is non __init and is used even after initialization is complete.

2007-01-11[PATCH] i386: cpu hotplug/smpboot misc MODPOST warning fixesVivek Goyal
o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings. o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning. WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:identify_cpu from .text between 'smp_store_cpu_info' (at offset 0xc011020d) and 'do_boot_cpu' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:init_gdt from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01102ca) and '__cpu_up' WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:print_cpu_info from .text between 'do_boot_cpu' (at offset 0xc01105d0) and '__cpu_up' o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary() is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug.
