2009-11-04powerpc: tiny memcpy_(to|from)io optimisationAlbrecht Dreß
This trivial patch changes memcpy_(to|from)io as to transfer as many 32-bit words as possible in 32-bit accesses (in the current solution, the last 32-bit word was transferred as 4 byte accesses).

2009-10-30powerpc: Enable sparse irq_descs on powerpcMichael Ellerman
Defining CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ enables generic code that gets rid of the static irq_desc array, and replaces it with an array of pointers to irq_descs. It also allows node local allocation of irq_descs, however we currently don't have the information available to do that, so we just allocate them on all on node 0.

2009-10-30powerpc: Rearrange and fix show_interrupts() for sparse irq_descsMichael Ellerman
Move the default case out of the if, ie. when we're just displaying an irq. And consolidate all the odd cases at the top, ie. printing the header and footer. And in the process cope with sparse irq_descs.

2009-10-30powerpc/mm: Allow more flexible layouts for hugepage pagetablesDavid Gibson
Currently each available hugepage size uses a slightly different pagetable layout: that is, the bottem level table of pointers to hugepages is a different size, and may branch off from the normal page tables at a different level. Every hugepage aware path that needs to walk the pagetables must therefore look up the hugepage size from the slice info first, and work out the correct way to walk the pagetables accordingly. Future hardware is likely to add more possible hugepage sizes, more layout options and more mess. This patch, therefore reworks the handling of hugepage pagetables to reduce this complexity. In the new scheme, instead of having to consult the slice mask, pagetable walking code can check a flag in the PGD/PUD/PMD entries to see where to branch off to hugepage pagetables, and the entry also contains the information (eseentially hugepage shift) necessary to then interpret that table without recourse to the slice mask. This scheme can be extended neatly to handle multiple levels of self-describing "special" hugepage pagetables, although for now we assume only one level exists. This approach means that only the pagetable allocation path needs to know how the pagetables should be set out. All other (hugepage) pagetable walking paths can just interpret the structure as they go. There already was a flag bit in PGD/PUD/PMD entries for hugepage directory pointers, but it was only used for debug. We alter that flag bit to instead be a 0 in the MSB to indicate a hugepage pagetable pointer (normally it would be 1 since the pointer lies in the linear mapping). This means that asm pagetable walking can test for (and punt on) hugepage pointers with the same test that checks for unpopulated page directory entries (beq becomes bge), since hugepage pointers will always be positive, and normal pointers always negative. While we're at it, we get rid of the confusing (and grep defeating) #defining of hugepte_shift to be the same thing as mmu_huge_psizes.

2009-10-30powerpc/chrp: Use the same RTAS daemon as pSeriesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The CHRP code has some fishy timer based code to scan the RTAS event log, which uses a 1KB stack buffer and doesn't even use the results. The pSeries code as a nicer daemon that allows userspace to read the event log and basically uses the same RTAS interface This patch moves rtasd.c out of platform/pseries and makes it usable by CHRP, after removing the old crufty event log mechanism in there. The nvram logging part of the daemon is still only available on 64-bit since the underlying nvram management routines aren't currently shared.

2009-10-28powerpc: tracing: Add powerpc tracepoints for timer entry and exitAnton Blanchard
We can monitor the effectiveness of our power management of both the kernel and hypervisor by probing the timer interrupt. For example, on this box we see 10.37s timer interrupts on an idle core: <idle>-0 [010] 3900.671297: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3900.671302: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3911.042963: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3911.042968: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3921.414630: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 <idle>-0 [010] 3921.414635: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10 Since we have a 207MHz decrementer it will go negative and fire every 10.37s even if Linux is completely idle.

2009-10-28powerpc: tracing: Add powerpc tracepoints for interrupt entry and exitAnton Blanchard
This adds powerpc-specific tracepoints for interrupt entry and exit. While we already have generic irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit tracepoints there are cases on our virtualised powerpc machines where an interrupt is presented to the OS, but subsequently handled by the hypervisor. This means no OS interrupt handler is invoked. Here is an example on a POWER6 machine with the patch below applied: <idle>-0 [006] 3243.949840744: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10 <idle>-0 [006] 3243.949850520: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10 <idle>-0 [007] 3243.950218208: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10 <idle>-0 [007] 3243.950224080: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021879320: irq_entry: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021883616: irq_handler_entry: irq=87 handler=eth0 <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021887328: irq_handler_exit: irq=87 return=handled <idle>-0 [000] 3244.021897408: irq_exit: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0 Here we see two phantom interrupts (no handler was invoked), followed by a real interrupt for eth0.

2009-10-27powerpc/ppc64: Use preempt_schedule_irq instead of preempt_scheduleBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Based on an original patch by Valentine Barshak <vbarshak@ru.mvista.com> Use preempt_schedule_irq to prevent infinite irq-entry and eventual stack overflow problems with fast-paced IRQ sources. This kind of problems has been observed on the PASemi Electra IDE controller. We have to make sure we are soft-disabled before calling preempt_schedule_irq and hard disable interrupts after that to avoid unrecoverable exceptions. This patch also moves the "clrrdi r9,r1,THREAD_SHIFT" out of the #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E scope, since r9 is clobbered and has to be restored in both cases.

2009-10-13powerpc/ftrace: show real return addresses in modulesSteven Rostedt
When the function graph tracer is enabled, it replaces the return address with a hook back to the tracer. This makes back traces see the hook instead of the actual return address. The current code also shows the real address by checking if the return address jumps to the return_to_handler. If it is, is also prints out the saved real return address. On powerpc64, some modules may return to mod_return_to_handler, which is not checked. This patch will also show the real address if a return is to mod_return_to_handler as well.

2009-09-24powerpc: Move 64bit heap above 1TB on machines with 1TB segmentsAnton Blanchard
If we are using 1TB segments and we are allowed to randomise the heap, we can put it above 1TB so it is backed by a 1TB segment. Otherwise the heap will be in the bottom 1TB which always uses 256MB segments and this may result in a performance penalty. This functionality is disabled when heap randomisation is turned off: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space which may be useful when trying to allocate the maximum amount of 16M or 16G pages. On a microbenchmark that repeatedly touches 32GB of memory with a stride of 256MB + 4kB (designed to stress 256MB segments while still mapping nicely into the L1 cache), we see the improvement: Force malloc to use heap all the time: # export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=0 MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=-1 Disable heap randomization: # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space # time ./test 12.51s Enable heap randomization: # echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space # time ./test 1.70s Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-09-23seq_file: constify seq_operationsJames Morris
Make all seq_operations structs const, to help mitigate against revectoring user-triggerable function pointers. This is derived from the grsecurity patch, although generated from scratch because it's simpler than extracting the changes from there.
