o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. For example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table. So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup calgary iommu accordingly. o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE. o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files. (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file otherwise that would have been the best place). o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in second kernel without KEXEC being enabled. o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for elfcorehdr_addr. I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh. Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not broken on sh.

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. Reading will return the current state. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space task in a simple scenario. It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain "FREEZING" until one of these things happens: 1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to the freezer.state file 2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal and returns EIO) 3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN" state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

When we use TID=N userspace mappings, we must ensure that kernel mappings have been destroyed when entering userspace. Using TID=1/TID=0 for kernel/user mappings and running userspace with PID=0 means that userspace can't access the kernel mappings, but the kernel can directly access userspace. The net is that we don't need to flush the TLB on privilege switches, but we do on guest context switches (which are far more infrequent). Guest boot time performance improvement: about 30%.

We're saving the host TLB state to memory on every exit, but never using it. Originally I had thought that we'd want to restore host TLB for heavyweight exits, but that could actually hurt when context switching to an unrelated host process (i.e. not qemu). Since this decreases the performance penalty of all exits, this patch improves guest boot time by about 15%.

Recently, indirect_pci was changed to test if the bus number requested is the one hanging straight off the PHB, then it substitutes the bus number with another one contained in a new "self_busno" field of the pci_controller structure. However, this breaks CHRP which didn't initialize this new field, and which relies on having the right bus number passed to the hardware. This fixes it by initializing this variable properly for all CHRP bridges Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The detection of the IBM "Python" PCI host bridge on IBM CHRP machines such as old RS6000 was broken when we changed of_device_is_compatible() from strncasecmp to strcasecmp (dropped the "n" variant) due to the way IBM encodes the chip version. We fix that by instead doing a match on the model property like we do for others bridges in that file. It should be good enough for those machines. If yours is still broken, let me know.

When the powerpc PCI layer is not configured to re-assign everything, it currently fails to detect that a PCI to PCI bridge has been left unassigned by the firmware and tries to allocate resource for the default window values in the bridge (0...X) (with the notable exception of a hack we have in there that detects some Apple firmware unassigned bridge resources). This results in resource allocation failures, which are generally fixed up later on but it causes scary warnings in the logs and we have seen the fixup code fall over in some circumstances (a different issue to fix as well). This code improves that by providing a more complete & useful function to intuit that a bridge was left unassigned by the firmware, and thus force a full re-allocation by the PCI code without trying to allocate the existing useless resources first. The algorithm we use basically considers unassigned a window that starts at 0 (PCI address) if the corresponding address space enable bit is not set. In addition, for memory space, it considers such a resource unassigned also if the host bridge isn't configured to forward cycles to address 0 (ie, the resource basically overlaps main memory). This fixes a range of problems with things like Bare-Metal support on pSeries machines, or attempt to use partial firmware PCI setup. Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
