2005-11-14[PATCH] x86_64: Make i386 compile again with fourth DMA32 zoneAndi Kleen
The code should deal with an additional empty zone, so fix up the #error. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-11-14[PATCH] x86_64: Set compatibility flag for 4GB zone on IA64Andi Kleen
IA64 traditionally had a 4GB DMA32 zone. Set the compatibility flag to keep old drivers working. For new drivers it would be better to use ZONE_DMA32 now. Cc: tony.luck@intel.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-11-14[PATCH] x86_64: Add 4GB DMA32 zoneAndi Kleen
Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones. As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port was originally designed we had some discussion if we should use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early 2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy. But this has always caused problems since then because device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven it can deal with many zones successfully. So this patch adds both zones. This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.). Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which was not enough memory. Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory (like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent, but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory (even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better. One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because it seems to be the most common restriction. The new zone is so far added only for x86-64. For other architectures who don't set up this new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32 as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able enough. One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA (trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite ugly and is now obsolete. These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-11-15powerpc: Fix clearing of the FPSCR when invoking a signal handlerPaul Mackerras
As pointed out by Gary Byers, we were clearing the image of the FPSCR (floating point status and control register) in the thread_struct before copying it to the user stack when invoking a signal. Thus the task would see its FPSCR getting cleared when it took a signal. While fixing it I noticed that our swapcontext system call was also clearing FPSCR. It shouldn't, so I fixed that too.

2005-11-14[libata] REQUEST SENSE handling fixesJeff Garzik
- Move ATAPI check-condition handling out of the timeout handler - Use multi-qc-issue feature to issue REQUEST SENSE ATAPI PACKET command upon receiving an ATAPI check-condition. This cleans things up a lot, and eliminates a nasty recursion bug.
2005-11-14[libata] minor fixes, new helpersJeff Garzik
- in ata_dev_identify(), don't assume that all devices are either ATA or ATAPI. In the future, this code will see port multipliers and other devices. - make a debugging printk less verbose - add new helper ata_qc_reinit() - add new helper BPRINTK() and port flag ATA_FLAG_DEBUGMSG, for fine-grained debugging use.
2005-11-14[libata] fix bugs in ATAPI padding DMA mapping codeJeff Garzik
The ATAPI pad-to-next-32bit-boundary code modifies the scatterlist's length variable, sometimes to zero. x86-64 platform would oops if a zero-length scatterlist entry was asked to be mapped. Work around this by ensuring that we never DMA-map a zero length buffer or SG entry.
2005-11-14[libata ahci] error handling fixesJeff Garzik
Needed to get ATAPI working. - dump hardware error bits, if hardware signals an error - only reset hardware during timeout if a command was active - call ata_qc_complete() with a fine-grained error mask. Needed so that atapi_qc_complete() can distinguish between device errors and other errors.

2005-11-14[PATCH] powerpc: Turn cpu_irq_down into kexec_cpu_downMichael Ellerman
We currently have a ppc_md member called cpu_irq_down, which disables IRQs for the cpu in question. The only caller of cpu_irq_down is the kexec code. On pSeries we need to do more than just teardown IRQs at kexec time, so rename the ppc_md member to kexec_cpu_down and expand it. The pSeries code needs to know, and other platforms might too, whether we're doing a crash shutdown (ie. panicking) or a regular kexec, so add a flag for that. The pSeries implementation of kexec_cpu_down does an unregister VPA call, which tells the Hypervisor to stop writing stuff into our pacas. Without this we can get weird memory corruption bugs when we kexec, caused by the Hypervisor writing into the first kernel's pacas which happens to be somewhere interesting in the second kernel's memory.
