2006-10-25[POWERPC] Consolidate feature fixup codeBenjamin Herrenschmidt
There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and separately for 32 and 64 bits. This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any problem.

2006-10-23[POWERPC] Simplify stolen time calculationStephen Rothwell
In calculating stolen time, we were trying to actually account for time spent in the hypervisor. We don't really have enough information to do that accurately, so don't try. Instead, we now calculate stolen time as time that the current cpu thread is not actually dispatching instructions. On chips without a PURR, we cannot do this, so stolen time will always be zero. On chips with a PURR, this is merely the difference between the elapsed PURR values and the elapsed TB values. This gives us much more sane vaules from tools such as mpstat, even if they are still a bit strange e.g. 2 busy threads on one cpu will both appear to have 50% user time and 50% stolen time while 1 busy thread on a cpu will look like 100% user on one of them and 100% idle on the other.

2006-10-11[PATCH] mm: use symbolic names instead of indices for zone initialisationMel Gorman
Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.

2006-10-10[POWERPC] Fix secondary CPU startup on old "powersurge" SMP powermacsPaul Mackerras
On the old "powersurge" SMP powermacs, the second CPU is started up by sending it an IPI, which has the side effect of stopping the timebase clock (so the secondary CPU's timebase can be synchronized with the primary's). The routine that did this used udelay, which will hang forever when the timebase is stopped, since udelay now spins until the timebase reaches a certain value. The end result is that the kernel would hang when bringing up the second CPU. This fixes it by using a simple loop which just does a fixed number of iterations to generate the delay. These old systems were all clocked at around 200 MHz or so, so a fixed number of iterations is acceptable. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-10-06[POWERPC] Minor fix for bootargs propertyGeoff Levand
Avoid the use of an uninitialized stack variable when the powerpc device tree bootargs property is either missing or incorrectly defined. This also makes CONFIG_CMDLINE work properly under these conditions. This change adds a test for the existence of the bootargs property. early_init_dt_scan_chosen() tests for a zero length bootargs property in its CONFIG_CMDLINE processing, but the current implementation of of_get_flat_dt_prop() doesn't assign a value to the length when no property is found.

2006-10-06[POWERPC] Don't get PCI IRQ from OF for devices with no IRQBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch adds checking of the PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN register before using standard OF parsing to retreive PCI interrupts. The reason is that some PCI devices may have no PCI interrupt, though they may have interrupts attached via other means. In this case, we shall not use irq->pdev, but device-specific code can later retreive those interrupts instead. Without that patch, Maple and derivatives don't get the right interrupt for the second IDE channel as the linux IDE code fallsback to the PCI irq instead of trying to use the legacy ones for the on-board controller (which has no PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN). Having no PCI IRQ assign to it (as it doesn't request any) fixes it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.
