* [POWERPC] Make sure interrupt enable gets restored properlyPaul Mackerras2006-10-182-9/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The lazy IRQ disable patch missed a couple of places where the interrupt enable flags need to be restored correctly. First, we weren't restoring the paca->hard_enabled flag on interrupt exit. Instead of saving it on entry, we compute it from the MSR_EE bit in the MSR we are restoring at exit. Secondly, the MMU hash miss code was clearing both paca->soft_enabled and paca->hard_enabled but not restoring them in the case where hash_page was able to resolve the miss from the Linux page tables.

* [POWERPC] Lazy interrupt disabling for 64-bit machinesPaul Mackerras2006-10-168-61/+135
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts. This means that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are enabled' flag in the paca. If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled' flag in the paca, and returns. This means that interrupts only actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along. When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether interrupts got hard-disabled. If so, it also sets the EE bit in the MSR to hard-enable the interrupts. This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses. This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables, which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw. This doesn't yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled flags. This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | During boot we bring up all memory and cpu nodes. Normally a PCI device will be in one of these online nodes, however in some weird setups it may not.

* [POWERPC] Never panic when taking altivec exceptions from userspaceAnton Blanchard2006-10-161-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | At the moment we rely on a cpu feature bit or a firmware property to detect altivec. If we dont have either of these and the cpu does in fact support altivec we can cause a panic from userspace.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Since an automatic variable is used, a stale value from the stack will be used in the test. Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
* [POWERPC] Don't get PCI IRQ from OF for devices with no IRQBenjamin Herrenschmidt2006-10-061-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-054-9/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* | [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2006-10-031-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct. Later patches will move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname namespace into the nsproxy. The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each contained in the nsproxy.

So we can kill wall_jiffies completely. This is just a cleanup and logically should not change any real behavior except for one thing: RTC updating code in (old) ppc and xtensa use a condition "jiffies - wall_jiffies == 1". This condition is never met so I suppose it is just a bug. I just remove that condition only instead of kill the whole "if" block.

Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update. Passing ticks get rid of this redundant calculation. Also there are another redundancy pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky. This cleanup make a barrier added by 5aee405c662ca644980c184774277fc6d0769a84 needless. So this patch removes it. As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies. (This patch does not really remove wall_jiffies.
