2007-12-19[IA64] Fix Altix BTE error return statusRuss Anderson
The Altix shub2 BTE error detail bits are in a different location than on shub1. The current code does not take this into account resulting in all shub2 BTE failures mapping to "unknown". This patch reads the error detail bits from the proper location, so the correct BTE failure reason is returned for both shub1 and shub2.

2007-12-19[IA64] set_thread_area fails in IA32 chrootIan Wienand
I tried to upgrade an IA32 chroot on my IA64 to a new glibc with TLS. It kept dying because set_thread_area was returning -ESRCH (bugs.debian.org/451939). I instrumented arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:get_free_idx() and ended up seeing output like [pid] idx desc->a desc->b ----------------------------- [2710] 0 -> c6b0ffff 40dff31b [2710] 1 -> 0 0 [2710] 2 -> 0 0 [2710] 0 -> c6b0ffff 40dff31b [2710] 1 -> c6b0ffff 40dff31b [2710] 2 -> 0 0 [2711] 0 -> c6b0ffff 40dff31b [2711] 1 -> c6b0ffff 40dff31b [2711] 2 -> 48c0ffff 40dff317 which suggested to me that TLS pointers were surviving exec() calls, leading to GDT pointers filling up and the eventual failure of get_free_idx().

This adds platform_suspend_ops for PMU based machines, directly in the PMU driver. This allows suspending via /sys/power/state on powerbooks. The patch also replaces the PMU ioctl with a simple call to pm_suspend(PM_SUSPEND_MEM). Additionally, it cleans up some debug code.

2007-12-19[POWERPC] Fix sleep on powerbook 3400Paul Mackerras
Sleep on the powerbook 3400 has been broken since the change that made powerbook_sleep_3400 call pmac_suspend_devices(), which disables interrupts. There are a couple of loops in powerbook_sleep_3400 that depend on interrupts being enabled, and in fact it has to have interrupts enabled at the point of going to sleep since it is an interrupt from the PMU that wakes it up. This fixes it by using pmu_wait_complete() instead of a spinloop, and by explicitly enabling interrupts before putting the CPU into sleep mode (which is OK since all interrupts except the PMU interrupt have been disabled at the interrupt controller by this stage). This changes the logic so that it keeps putting the CPU into sleep mode until the completion of the interrupt transaction from the PMU that signals the end of sleep. Also, we now call pmu_unlock() before sleep so that the via_pmu_interrupt() code can process the interrupt event from the PMU properly. Now that generic code saves and restores PCI state, it is no longer necessary to do that here. Thus pbook_pci_save/restore and related functions are no longer necessary, so this removes them. Lastly, this moves the ioremap of the memory controller to init code rather than doing it on every sleep/wakeup cycle. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This converts the therm_pm72.c driver to use the kthread API.

2007-12-19[POWERPC] Convert adb.c to use kthread API and not spin on ADB requestsPaul Mackerras
This converts adb.c to use the kthread API. It also changes adb_request so that if the ADBREQ_SYNC flag is specified, we now sleep waiting for the request to finish using an on-stack completion rather than spinning. To implement this, we now require that if the ADBREQ_SYNC flag is set, the `done' parameter must be NULL. All of the existing callers of adb_request that pass ADBREQ_SYNC appear to be in process context and have done == NULL. Doing this allows us to get rid of an awful hack in adb_request() where we used to test whether the request was coming from the adb probe task and use a completion if it was, and otherwise spin. This also gets rid of a static request block that was used if the req parameter to adb_request was NULL. None of the callers do that any more, so the static request block is no longer necessary.

2007-12-18[IA64] Avoid unnecessary TLB flushes when allocating memoryde Dinechin, Christophe (Integrity VM)
Improve performance of memory allocations on ia64 by avoiding a global TLB purge to purge a single page from the file cache. This happens whenever we evict a page from the buffer cache to make room for some other allocation. Test case: Run 'find /usr -type f | xargs cat > /dev/null' in the background to fill the buffer cache, then run something that uses memory, e.g. 'gmake -j50 install'. Instrumentation showed that the number of global TLB purges went from a few millions down to about 170 over a 12 hours run of the above. The performance impact is particularly noticeable under virtualization, because a virtual TLB is generally both larger and slower to purge than a physical one.

This change moves the kernel SLB setup to spu_base.c, by exposing a function spu_setup_kernel_slbs() to do this setup. This allows us to remove the low-level mm code from switch.c, making it possible to later move switch.c to the spufs module.

2007-12-19[POWERPC] perfmon2: make pm_interval register read/writeKevin Corry
The pm_interval register in the Cell PMU is read/write, but was implemented in the kernel as write-only. Previously, the written value was saved in a "shadow" copy so calls to cbe_read_pm() could return the value. Perfmon2 needs to be able to read the current values of pm_interval, so change cbe_read_pm() to read the actual register instead of the "shadow" copy. There is currently no code in the kernel that tries to read the pm_interval register with cbe_read_pm() (expecting to receive the "shadow" value), so this should not break any existing code.

2007-12-18x86: fix "Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work!"Ingo Molnar
this is the tale of a full day spent debugging an ancient but elusive bug. after booting up thousands of random .config kernels, i finally happened to generate a .config that produced the following rare bootup failure on 32-bit x86: | ..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1 | ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC | ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ... failed. | ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed. | ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ... failed :(. | Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Boot with apic=debug | and send a report. Then try booting with the 'noapic' option this bug has been reported many times during the years, but it was never reproduced nor fixed. the bug that i hit was extremely sensitive to .config details. First i did a .config-bisection - suspecting some .config detail. That led to CONFIG_X86_MCE: enabling X86_MCE magically made the bug disappear and the system would boot up just fine. Debugging my way through the MCE code ended up identifying two unlikely candidates: the thing that made a real difference to the hang was that X86_MCE did two printks: Intel machine check architecture supported. Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#1. Adding the same printks to a !CONFIG_X86_MCE kernel made the bug go away! this left timing as the main suspect: i experimented with adding various udelay()s to the arch/x86/kernel/io_apic_32.c:check_timer() function, and the race window turned out to be narrower than 30 microseconds (!). That made debugging especially funny, debugging without having printk ability before the bug hits is ... interesting ;-) eventually i started suspecting IRQ activities - those are pretty much the only thing that happen this early during bootup and have the timescale of a few dozen microseconds. Also, check_timer() changes the IRQ hardware in various creative ways, so the main candidate became IRQ0 interaction. i've added a counter to track timer irqs (on which core they arrived, at what exact time, etc.) and found that no timer IRQ would arrive after the bug condition hits - even if we re-enable IRQ0 and re-initialize the i8259A, but that we'd get a small number of timer irqs right around the time when we call the check_timer() function. Eventually i got the following backtrace triggered from debug code in the timer interrupt: ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... failed. ...trying to set up timer as ExtINT IRQ...

Wait ... we have an IRQ0 entry while we are in the middle of setting up the local APIC, the i8259A and the PIT?? That is certainly not how it's supposed to work! check_timer() was supposed to be called with irqs turned off - but this eroded away sometime in the past. This code would still work most of the time because this code runs very quickly, but just the right timing conditions are present and IRQ0 hits in this small, ~30 usecs window, timer irqs stop and the system does not boot up. Also, given how early this is during bootup, the hang is very deterministic - but it would only occur on certain machines (and certain configs). The fix was quite simple: disable/restore interrupts properly in this function. With that in place the test-system now boots up just fine. (64-bit x86 io_apic_64.c had the same bug.) Phew!

2007-12-18genirq: revert lazy irq disable for simple irqsSteven Rostedt
In commit 76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21 lazy irq disabling was implemented, and the simple irq handler had a masking set to it. Remy Bohmer discovered that some devices in the ARM architecture would trigger the mask, but never unmask it. His patch to do the unmasking was questioned by Russell King about masking simple irqs to begin with. Looking further, it was discovered that the problems Remy was seeing was due to improper use of the simple handler by devices, and he later submitted patches to fix those. But the issue that was uncovered was that the simple handler should never mask. This patch reverts the masking in the simple handler.

"call absolute" is invalid on x86-64, so we don't need treat it. - Change the processing order as same as x86-32. - Add "iret"(0xcf) case. - Remove next_rip local variable.

2007-12-18x86: jprobe bugfixMasami Hiramatsu
jprobe for x86-64 may cause kernel page fault when the jprobe_return() is called from incorrect function. - Use jprobe_saved_regs instead getting it from stack. (Especially on x86-64, it may get incorrect data, because pt_regs can not be get by using container_of(rsp)) - Change the type of stack pointer to unsigned long *.

2007-12-18genirq: add unlocked version of set_irq_handler()Kevin Hilman
Add unlocked version for use by irq_chip.set_type handlers which may wish to change handler to level or edge handler when IRQ type is changed. The normal set_irq_handler() call cannot be used because it tries to take irq_desc.lock which is already held when the irq_chip.set_type hook is called.

2007-12-18clockevents: fix reprogramming decision in oneshot broadcastThomas Gleixner
Resolve the following regression of a choppy, almost unusable laptop: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/12/7/299 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9525 A previous version of the code did the reprogramming of the broadcast device in the return from idle code. This was removed, but the logic in tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast() was kept the same. When a broadcast interrupt happens we signal the expiry to all CPUs which have an expired event. If none of the CPUs has an expired event, which can happen in dyntick mode, then we reprogram the broadcast device. We do not reprogram otherwise, but this is only correct if all CPUs, which are in the idle broadcast state have been woken up. The code ignores, that there might be pending not yet expired events on other CPUs, which are in the idle broadcast state. So the delivery of those events can be delayed for quite a time. Change the tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast() function to check for CPUs, which are in broadcast state and are not woken up by the current event, and enforce the rearming of the broadcast device for those CPUs.
